Chapter 181: 0146 Fist and Sword Clash (4k)_2

"That’s good."

Zheng Shaocong relaxed.

He stood on the helicopter, clasped his fists with a smile, and said,

"This time I was not as skilled, but next time I won’t be."

Lu Chenzhou looked up and smiled,

"There will be an opportunity to come to Dragon City and spar with me."

"Definitely!"

After saying goodbye to his opponent, Lu Chenzhou felt emotional.

"Now it’s seven against seven."

He guessed that Xiao He might not make it through the night.

But he didn’t expect this guy to end up dead on arrival.

At the same time, a live broadcast came from everyone’s communication bracelets.

[Dragon City He Ling was defeated by Huangshan Yin Shishi, eliminated.]

[Huangshan Zheng Shaocong was defeated by Dragon City Lu Chenzhou, eliminated.]

...

Somewhere in the woods, Old Tian stopped.

"Xiao He really has bad luck, just landed and encountered the second top fighter of the opposition... Fortunately, Chenzhou performed well, Zheng Shaocong’s strength could rank in the top five of the opposing side; Huangshan has lost a main general, and their strength will be significantly reduced going forward."

...

In a clearing in front of a small log cabin.

Two figures were clashing, creating an immense commotion.

Smack!

Li Kongkong’s folding fan suddenly opened, and with a fierce gust of wind, a Tenth Rank in black clothing was struck and flew backward.

"What a formidable young man, I shall retreat first, heeheehee."

This NPC was very dedicated, spouting tough words then running away.

Li Kongkong picked up the token the black-clothed man dropped.

"Shaocong was eliminated? This Lu Chenzhou, truly has some skill."

Suddenly, his expression changed, and he looked towards a spot.

"Who’s there?"

"It’s me, Qu Ping."

A figure holding a Yanling Blade appeared.

Li Kongkong said,

"Good, let’s move together."

Qu Ping said,

"Now that we’ve lost a Ninth Rank while our opponents have only lost an Eighth Rank, the situation is unfavorable to us. Just now, I saw Wang Hongdao enter a dilapidated temple from afar, he might be in a difficult battle with the gatekeeper, if..."

Li Kongkong smiled,

"Lead the way, let’s send Wang Hongdao off. The rest are nothing to fear."

...

Whoosh, whoosh!

A whip reached out, grabbed a high branch, and Chen Xiaoyun leaped up with its momentum, sliding onto another tree like a gliding snake, the branch she had just been on shattered by a shadow of a stick from midair.

A black-clothed figure stood holding the stick.

"Little girl, you can’t run away."

His movements were like an ape’s, quickly following her. This person was also an NPC, responsible for sudden mid-path ambushes to create twists. He was already a Tenth Rank.

"Unlucky, didn’t get the token, and now being chased by someone at the Extreme Limit Realm."

Running out of an ancient forest, Chen Xiaoyun stopped, only to face a 90-degree cliff ahead, strangely growing pines reaching up from the rocky peak, towering above.

She hooked a weird pine with her whip and used her movement technique to climb the cliff.

Bang! A powerful, heavy stick fell, and mid-air Chen Xiaoyun had to plummet to dodge the strike, simultaneously pulling her whip out, striking directly at the man’s abdomen.

"Tsk tsk, it looks like you’ve nowhere to run."

The black-clothed man chuckled weirdly, using his stick to block the whip, spun it around, and tightly wound the whip around, Chen Xiaoyun pulling in vain— her face changing color, this person was too strong. These NPCs, battle-hardened, were best at handling prodigies.

A force surged forth, Chen Xiaoyun was at a lower absolute strength, her body dragged toward the black-clothed man by the whip, out of options, she let go of the whip, her small feet kicked out a pile of dirt and stones in mid-air, seizing this chance to escape in a different direction.

"Hey, little girl, you’re leaving your whip behind?"

The black-clothed man chuckled lightly, pursuing once again to kill.

All of a sudden, Chen Xiaoyun stopped again ahead.

She clenched her fists, set her stance, and said:

"Return my whip!"

The man in black glanced around and smiled,

"Another one, come out."

Before he had finished speaking, he suddenly whipped the air, sending a cracking sound towards a bush, but in the next moment, a great force seized the end of the whip.

The man in black gave a slight smile and discarded the whip.

Lu Chenzhou grabbed the whip and handed it to Chen Xiaoyun.

Chen Xiaoyun could hardly hide her delight, glaring fiercely at the man in black, she exclaimed,

"Now it’s your turn to run, Chenzhou... let’s beat him up!"

Snap! Chen Xiaoyun advanced swiftly, the whip already slashing through the air.

Alone, she had felt uncertain.

Now with Lu Chenzhou, she felt confident again.

Lu Chenzhou silently disappeared into the woods; he used Tiger Shadow Mysterious Steps to circle behind the man in black, burst forth from cover, and aimed a Tiger Claw at the man’s back. The metallic clang of their encounter was blocked by the man’s backhand stick defense.

"Such strong power, he must be a veteran Tenth Rank,"

Lu Chenzhou thought. His sneak attack had failed, and the man’s sweeping stick wind came like a whirlwind. Lu bent forward, then back, grabbed the man by the waist, vibrated his right leg, and struck Inch Force at the lower body. The man dodged the whip while leaping from the ground. Lu Chenzhou took the opportunity to hold him and arched back with force, like a snapping bowstring, slamming the man headfirst into the ground. The man used his stick to support himself and flipped back up, his sticking hand sliding down to elbow Lu in the stomach, while he reversed the stick to strike Lu’s back.

Lu, like a bowing tiger, absorbed the blow to his stomach but was still hit by the elbow. He used General Armor Removal Force to redirect seventy percent of the force, and Hard Qi Gong blocked the rest. At the same time, the stick about to hit his back got entangled by Chen Xiaoyun’s whip.

"Time for me to disarm you!"

Chen Xiaoyun retracted the whip, looping it around a tree and tightening it with the tree’s friction. Holding the whip in her right hand, she plucked it like a celestial harp, and with a powerful crack, broke the tree bark and caused the man’s hand to split open.

Using the "Eel Slithering Force," the man in black freed himself like a boneless snake from Lu’s hold while twisting along the whip and pulling out his stick.

"Watch the stick!"

He first struck at Chen Xiaoyun, who pulled the whip to dodge the stick strike with the Qin King Pillar Evasion technique, flipping back afterwards. The man’s stick strike hit the ground, exploding dirt and shattering stones.

Indeed, a master of Extreme Limit Realm.

Boom! The man in black swung his stick again, colliding with Lu Chenzhou’s fist wrap, the rebound force numbing Lu’s hands; this man’s stick technique was too strong. Without disarming him, he alone could fight against them for a long while. Lu Chenzhou’s Fist Blade popped out, clamping onto the stick like Vajra Tiger Claw, chopping downwards.

"Goodness, you’re serious."

The man exclaimed, retracting the leading hand on the stick while trying to dodge Lu with leg techniques. Lu gave no ground, the metallic clang echoing through the woods. At that moment, Chen Xiaoyun whipped at the man’s right leg; she yelled sharply, pulling with both hands, retreating as if tug-of-warring.

The man was firmly controlled by them.

Sparks flew from the friction between the Fist Blade and the stick. He ultimately had to surrender his weapon, pulled away by Chen Xiaoyun, freeing the whip to leap onto the tree. Lu Chenzhou stepped on the stick, crossed his arms, the light glinting off the Tiger Claw Blade.

"Do you still wish to continue the fight?"

The man in black took off his mask and took out a staff ID.

He threw a Jade Token onto the ground.

"This is also a Token. You keep it... and by the way, that Fist Blade, isn’t it the ’Mountain Lord’ from Iron-faced Tiger Li Gui? How did you get it?"

"Mr. Li gifted it to me for use; are you also a student of Mr. Li?"

"Yes, I studied Tiger Form for a while before switching to something else."

The man in black picked up his stick, bowed with his fists, and then left.

Lu Chenzhou received the Token; he now had two Jade Tokens.

Chen Xiaoyun trotted over, standing beside Lu Chenzhou to feel safe.

She enviously said,

"Mr. Li is really good to you."

"Yes."

"How many Jade Tokens do you have now?"

"Two, and you?"

"I don’t have any; right after landing, I was chased by the man in black."

Chen Xiaoyun lamented her bad luck.

Just then, a voice came through the communicator.

[Current Jade Token Leader: Su City Dragon Martial Lu Chenzhou!]

In an instant, both Lu Chenzhou and Chen Xiaoyun’s expressions changed.

"Let’s go, let’s leave and meet up with the others."

The organizers of the competition were cunning.

With this broadcast, players from Martial Arts University of Huangshan would be hunting Lu Chenzhou all over until noon tomorrow at Bright Peak. Others might be manage, but Facing Li Kongkong, Lu had no confidence and needed to ally with Wang Hongdao as soon as possible.

Shortly after they had started running, another broadcast was heard.

[Dragon City Wang Hongdao has been eliminated by Huangshan Li Kongkong and Qu Ping.]

Lu Chenzhou and Chen Xiaoyun froze in their tracks.

They could never have expected that after the weakest Xiao He was eliminated, the next would be the undoubtedly top fighter Wang Hongdao.

This was the Extreme Limit Realm, a master among the top five hundred of the Hidden Dragon List.
