Chapter 484 - 484: Messy Game of Point Ball

Roar—the audience banged their feet against the ground under their chairs and screamed in excitement.

Before them, an open field with nothing except grass appeared—in the center of it all, a small ball stood—it was the size of a tennis ball.

"Ladies and gents—we start the championship with a bang! With Point Ball!"

Through the many speakers of the stadium, the commentator's voice boomed through the air like an air cannon.

Hearing that voice made everyone's blood pump with excitement!

"The Point Ball event has been played a couple of times before in Junior Martial Arts Championship history, and it has always left behind bloodied participants.

"It is definitely a tough event to start with, and I am certain that some representatives will have to call it quits after this one!"

The audience's eyes gazed in the direction of the steel doors that were firmly shut, but in just a couple of seconds, they would open up.

"The time limit is 1 hour. The representatives have only 1 hour to garner as many points as possible!"

The commentator's figure appeared in the big square-shaped screen, dangling high in the air, over the open field, and then he raised five fingers, pointing to the sky.

"Count with me!"

"One!"

The audience screamed.

"Two!"

Even louder!

"Three!"

The ground shook under the thunderous roars, and even the people at the home could feel the vibrations in their chests.

"Four!"

The audience shouted—some breathing heavily and many turning their gazes to the door—their hearts beating in excitement.

"Let's start the championship!"

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

The over three hundred steel doors opened simultaneously, and the representatives ran out of their rooms, looking for the ball.

All three hundred eyes landed on the small ball in the center of the field, and like a pack of velociraptors, they all lunged forward to grab it.

"It's mine!"

"Point ball!"

"Come on, I just need to touch it once. Please, reach there first!"

Swoosh!

In front of everyone, a cold-looking young man snatched the ball from the ground—his eyes were black, his eyebrows were furrowed, and his lips were set in a thin, determined line.

"And the ball is in the possession of… Frown Man of the Pirate Kingdom!"

The commentator screamed.

"Booooooo~"

The audience erupted into a chorus of jeers and boos—they shouted insults, threw popcorn, and even threw some plastic cups onto the field.

"When the Pirate Kingdom was accepted into the World Martial Arts Federation as one of the Martial Arts Countries, it brought big debate over whether it was morally correct.

"Pirate Kingdom is the only country in the world that still allows slavery, and the concept of law is nonexistent over there!"

Frown Man stopped moving and watched as the hundreds of red-eyed representatives lunged at him—it was like a pack of zombies just running at him.

"Boo all you want, I will fuck all of you in the ass!"

He started weaving through the hungry-looking representatives, but when hundreds of people were coming straight at him, there wasn't much he could do.

In the end, someone slapped the ball out of his hands, and it went flying across the air.

A nimble-legged young woman caught the ball from the air, winked at the crowd, and landed on the ground with a smile on her face.

"The point ball is mi—"

Before she could even finish her words, a punch landed at her face, made her drop the ball, and the heartless young man grabbed the ball from the ground.

"You fool. You think you can just stop concentrating after getting the ball when hundreds of people are chasing after you?"

He scoffed.

"Same to you!"

A kick landed at the young man's face, sent him flying, and the slippery point ball slipped out of his hands and landed in the hands of one of the other representatives on the field.

A shocked-looking young man looked at the point ball in his shaky eyes, smiled in shock, and said.

"I-I got it!"

Smack!

However, only a fraction of a second later, the ball got smacked out of his hands, and it rolled down the grass field.

With screams, everyone jumped towards the ball, and a pile of players crashed together in a frenzy of craziness.

"The ball is mine, fuck all of you!"

"It's mine!"

"W-where the hell is the ball? Who has it?"

The ball was hidden under the pile of representatives—everyone was pushing each other away in an attempt to find it.

"Hey, that person is hugging something against her chest!"

Someone screamed, and several of them noticed a young woman lying flat on her stomach, clutching something against her chest.

"Give it here!"

She was kicked in the stomach, and the object went flying—it was the point ball—it went high in the air and then slowly started falling down.

Everyone followed the ball's trajectory and moved under the ball, where it was going to land—push, push, push—they all pushed and shoved each other to try to catch it.

The tallest of the bunch reached his hand towards the ball, grabbed it with a smile on his face, but then everyone started slapping his arm, and he lost his grip on it.

The ball landed in the hands of some representatives but quickly kept bouncing off as everyone just kept smacking it.

"Stop shoving!"

"You all need to back off. The ball is mine because I saw it first!"

"If you all let me hold that ball for a few seconds, I'll pay handsomely, so please, give the ball to me!"

"Yeah, if anyone hands the ball to me, I'll pay!"

The ball got grabbed by a young man, who quickly ran backwards but then collided with something that he thought was a brick wall.

However, it was actually the chest of a man who was standing behind him—over two meters tall, copper-skinned, and rough-looking—he looked like he was in his forties.

"I'll take that…"

He took the ball from the young man, forcefully, then turned around and started running away while hugging the ball against his chest.

Everyone tried to cling to his legs to stop him, but he was too strong and fast, and he just brushed off all the attempts to stop him.

"That's Gekido Raijin, the representative of Cliff Black—it's dangerous mountainous land with some mountains spearing through the clouds and reaching all the way to space!

"It's a rough place to live, but that's why he's so strong!"
