Chapter 444: Chapter 409: The Most Crucial Battle

"Holy shit!!!"

"666666!"

"You can play like this?"

"I’m on my knees, what kind of fighting style is this?"

"Is this the legendary ’Pillar Dodging’ kill?"

...

When Li San returned to the ring, the entire place exploded, and the comments section of the live stream went wild; everyone was dumbfounded by Li San’s tactics.

"What kind of tactic did you come up with here?" Wu, equally surprised, asked Li Tongyun, who was beside him.

Li Tongyun smiled. "During your retreat, I thought of this corner tactic, but it’s very difficult to execute. Currently, only you and Li San can use it. Li San tried it a few times but couldn’t guarantee a hundred percent success, which is why I didn’t suggest it before you went on stage and let him act on the spot."

Wu nodded. The greatest difficulty of this corner tactic was actually not the move around the pillar, but the moment of holding the opponent and rushing off the ring. Although it was only a short distance, the opponent weighed over 160 pounds and could resist with strength, so it required tremendous explosive power to be possible.

Zhao Lixin was injured in the abdomen, and indeed, in terms of explosive power, he was weaker than both Wu and Li San, which meant only Wu and Li San could use this tactic. However, now that Li San had already used it once, it would be difficult for Wu to try it again later.

On the stage, George was also shocked; he hadn’t expected Li San to dodge his attack in such a manner and even manage to return to the ring in the process.

At this moment, Xu Chuan was knocked out, Kermy was eliminated from the ring, and the situation turned into a 1v1.

George watched Li San warily, intending to stay away from the edge of the ring first, but Li San took the initiative to walk to the center of the ring, beckoning George over as he went.

Clearly, he wanted to have a proper one-on-one duel with George.

"Roar, roar, roar, roar!"

Li San’s actions immediately excited the Hua Country audience in the venue, feeling exhilarated.

George twisted his neck and strode toward Li San.

’Saint George’ feared no challenge!

The two stood firm in the center of the ring, and George was the first to attack; in the exchange just now, he had discovered that Li San’s strength was superior to his, so he had to dash out to a safe distance.

Step forward, George’s figure shook continuously left and right, resembling the butterfly step in boxing, and at the same time, his right arm also shook up and down, making it hard to predict where his attack would land.

A few seconds later, George suddenly burst forward, his right arm slicing toward Li San’s face, then in the next instant, he changed direction to slice at Li San’s right shoulder.

Karate Snake Cut from the Kyokushin school!

This move was exceptionally deceiving; even if filmed with a high-speed camera, the footage would need to be slowed down many times to make out George’s final target. George had demonstrated this move up close in front of many people. It looked like he was going to hit the face, but his opponents would end up falling, clutching their shoulders, as if by magic.

Facing George’s attack, Li San raised his left hand to draw a circle upward, discarding the false and embracing the true, intercepting George’s Snake Cut with a movement akin to "Grasping the Sparrow’s Tail."

For a martial artist like Li San who had mastered the Fist Intent, feint moves were no longer significant. Once his opponent had a thought, Li San would sense it and react in advance.

George’s right arm was blocked, and his left leg kicked silently, aiming for Li San’s shin bone.

Li San’s eyes brightened; George’s subtle kick was truly ’hidden’ with no forethought, giving no premonition to Li San, making it incredibly surprising.

But since Li San’s left hand was already resting on George’s right arm, despite the depth of George’s concealed kick, Li San had already ’listened’ to the movement in his body in time.

Bang!

George’s kick connected, but since Li San was prepared and exerted enough strength in his leg, he wasn’t injured.

Li San started pulling on George’s right hand with his left, while also grabbing George’s left hand with his right.

Kyokushin karate also featured throwing skills and locking techniques; George grabbed Li San’s arms in return, starting a tug-of-war.

The two were entangled up close, and Li San used his Listening Skill and Hua Jin to try to disrupt George’s center of gravity.

After a few moves, Li San’s techniques were more refined, and he broke George’s balance first. A shoulder strike pushed George back, and Li San was about to follow up with more punches.

George’s eyes flickered, his waist and abdomen contracted, and he suddenly unleashed tremendous power, bending forward and reaching for Li San’s legs.

He intended to throw Li San down!

From the beginning, this was George’s tactical goal. Based on the last round, Li San had already revealed his Ground Skill weakness, and apart from being a Kyokushin karate master, George was also a master of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. If it came to groundwork, he was confident he could defeat Li San.

This moment was carefully calculated by George; the rhythm was well-timed, just as Li San was exerting force to rush forward, making an instantaneous direction change impossible. So, his opponent would definitely not be able to dodge this charge!

In fact, Li San didn’t dodge; he raised his knee and struck George’s face fiercely.

George reacted quickly, even having time to feel a surge of joy; he lowered his head, gritted his teeth, neck muscles tensed, ready to withstand Li San’s knee strike. Prepared for it, he wouldn’t be knocked out by the blow.

This scene mirrored the previous round when Li San was taken down by a tackle from Brazil Team’s Misik, who simply absorbed Li San’s knee strike before throwing him down.

It seemed Li San was heading towards the same fate as before. However, as his knee hit George’s forehead, his right leg sprung like a spring, kicking fiercely at George’s abdomen.

Boom!

With a dull thud, George’s body shook, bending upward as if he was going to be kicked off the ground.

When he was hit on the forehead, he realized something was wrong. The power behind the knee strike was too weak, and sure enough, the next instant Li San changed his tactic and concentrated most of his strength into his right leg, kicking George in the abdomen.

"Beautiful!"

Below, Wu couldn’t help cheering, Li San’s double-stage explosive power was fast and fierce, smoothly connected.

After the last round ended, Li San had repeatedly studied his own defeat and even privately consulted with Li Tongyun to design several sets of techniques specifically to counter opponent’s throws, and now George had fallen for it.

After one kick, Li San didn’t let George fall to the ground but actively held onto his shoulders with both hands, yanked him vigorously, followed by landing his right foot and bringing his left knee up!

At this moment, George’s body was being pulled, and facing Li San’s knee strike, he could only use both hands to protect his abdomen and block.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Li San’s continuous knee strikes were powerful and heavy!

Because Li San attacked so quickly, George couldn’t find an opening to break free and could only keep retreating to dissipate the force.

It wasn’t until Li San had delivered eleven knee strikes in one breath that George seized the opportunity of Li San catching his breath to forcefully struggle free.

However, before George could launch a counterattack, Li San casually pushed his shoulder with a "Cloud Hands" move. Going along with George’s struggling force, he pushed him back, the switch between strength and softness making George extremely uncomfortable, and the next second, he directly fell off the ring.

After George fell from the ring, he came to his senses, looking at Li San on the stage with a frustrated face.

It turned out that during the continuous knee strikes, Li San had intentionally been pushing George toward the edge of the ring, and at the last moment, he withdrew power and used a "Cloud Hands" move to push George off the stage.

"Second round, the Hua Country team wins!"

The referee quickly announced the result, and the score on the big screen changed to 2:1, with the Hua Country Team temporarily in the lead.

"Awesome!!!"

In the stands, Chen Dong and Wang Xuecheng joined the roaring crowd.

"Hua Country Team, must win!"

"Hua Country Team, must win!"

The Hua Country spectators on-site were also greatly energized, and for a moment, their cheering even overwhelmed the American fans.

"How could you lose like that, George, and you too, Kermy, you’re all so useless!"

In the American Team’s preparation area, someone chided the just-returned George and Kermy.

Even the head coach Lill wouldn’t dare say such a thing; the only person who would is the American Team captain, ’Demon King’ Jon.

"What the fuck are you saying?" Kermy glared at Jon upon hearing this.

Jon, with a face of disdain, stepped forward and met Kermy’s gaze, "Did I say something wrong?"

"You..."

"Enough! We’re live! Do you want the whole world to witness your infighting?" Head Coach Lill timely ran over to separate the two.

Jon didn’t care at all, peeled off his shirt, showing off his solid muscles, and strode toward the check-in area, closely followed by ’War Police’ Miouqi.

When Jon and Miouqi appeared, the venue immediately erupted with huge cheers and screams. The somewhat uneasy hearts of American fans settled down in that instant, because these were the two strongest members of the American Team!

’Demon King’ Jon, fourteen-time consecutive UFC Heavyweight champion, has been at the top of the UFC overall ranking list for two years, surpassing Silvar and ranking first, now rightfully the top figure in UFC!

’War Police’ Miouqi, twelve-time consecutive UFC Light Heavyweight champion, ranked third on the UFC overall ranking list and the most likely candidate to challenge Jon for the heavyweight throne.

Facing such a duo, no one believed they could lose.

"I originally thought we would tactically concede this round."

The guy sitting next to Chen Dong and Wang Xuecheng said loudly to them, "But Wu didn’t come on for the second round, which means he will definitely play the third. I’m a bit puzzled why the Hua Country team would arrange their tactics like this."

"Uh, maybe Wu feels confident about winning?" Chen Dong said uncertainly.

The guy next to him shook his head with a solemn expression, "Honestly, if the American Team had only Jon or Miouqi in this round, I think Wu could win, but both of them together, and Wu’s teammate is not Li San. How can they fight this?"

Wang Xuecheng: "You lack confidence in Wu?"

The other man: "It’s not about confidence; a rational analysis shows that the probability of winning is really too small."

Since the other party had said in the first round that Zhao Lixin had little chance of winning and it turned out to be true, after hearing another ’rational analysis’ from the same person, Chen Dong and Wang Xuecheng, who had been full of confidence in Wu, were now somewhat shaken.

But just as Wu walked into the check-in area to prepare to go on stage, the guy next to them once again began to shout frantically:

"Ah ah ah, Wu is awesome!!!"

"Wu one against two!!"

"Take them down!!"
