Chapter 127: Chapter 128: You Dare Touch My Person?
"Absolutely, there’s no doubt, he is Brother Lei Hu!" Xiong Fei’s eyes bulged with recognition as he immediately identified Lei Hu.
"What on earth is going on with Brother Lei Hu, actually working for Dragon Shadow Villa?" The three of them looked at each other, their eyes filled with question marks.
The host, holding a microphone, smiled and said, "The rules of this Martial Artist’s Competition are quite simple. Whoever can withstand a strike from Lei Hu will win a million in prize money. If you can withstand ten strikes, the prize money will be doubled to twenty million! And if you defeat Lei Hu, you’ll win the grand prize of five hundred million!"
Boom!
The venue completely erupted!
Many martial artists preparing to compete were eager to try, their faces flushed with excitement!
"The underground Martial Artist’s Competition is the best way for every martial artist to make a name for themselves. How do you prove your strength? Fight with Lei Hu in the ring to your heart’s content, defeat him, beat him!" As the host shouted passionately, the atmosphere at the venue reached its peak.
"Lei Hu, I, Iron Whip Liu Song, am here to challenge you!" A Third-Rank Grandmaster stepped onto the stage, holding an iron whip, ready to fight.
"You only have one chance," Lei Hu said indifferently.
"Hmph, arrogant!" Liu Song bellowed angrily, swinging his iron whip. The whip lunged towards Lei Hu like a vicious snake.
Bang!
Lei Hu caught the iron whip with one hand, unharmed.
"My God, how is that possible?" Liu Song couldn’t believe his eyes.
The next moment, Lei Hu pulled with one hand, and Liu Song, along with the whip, was sent flying.
Not good!
Liu Song realized something was amiss, but it was already too late.
Lei Hu grabbed Liu Song by the neck with one hand and, before Liu Song could beg for mercy, snapped it with a ’crack’ without any effort.
First silence fell over the crowd, then a huge cheer erupted!
The host explained with a smile, "As expected of the champion, Lei Hu. Contestant Liu Song died without withstanding a single move!"
Liu Song’s death scared off some, but many more were still eager to try. After all, challenging Lei Hu was an honor in itself, and this was the best way to make a fortune.
"I’m here to challenge you, Lei Hu!"
"And I am too!"
More than a dozen contestants challenged Lei Hu, all defeated. The best performer was a guy called Iron Claw, who withstood seven attacks by Lei Hu and earned seven million in prize money.
"Lei Hu, you’re too strong. I admit defeat!" Iron Claw lowered his head and pleaded.
"Get lost!" Lei Hu said coldly.
Iron Claw walked off the stage dejectedly, only to catch the interest of Zhan Xiang. "Iron Claw, would you be interested in joining War Martial Hall? I’ll offer you a salary of twenty million a year and won’t restrict your freedom in any way!"
Upon hearing this, Iron Claw considered seriously. After all, joining War Martial Hall, one of Capital City’s eighteen halls, meant his status and position were assured.
Even though a twenty-million year salary wasn’t high for a Seventh-Rank Grandmaster like him, as many smaller forces had offered astronomical sums!
But for him, making money didn’t come first—freedom did!
After some consideration, Iron Claw nodded and said, "I agree."
Long Xiang showed a delighted expression.
After that, more contestants continued to challenge Lei Hu, even including an Eighth-Rank Grandmaster, which caused a great stir among the audience!
Unfortunately, this Eighth-Rank Grandmaster was clearly not as strong as Lei Hu and was defeated after twenty moves.
Although he lost, he still earned the admiration of Old Chen and secured a good future for himself.
"Are there any more challengers for Lei Hu? If not, this Martial Artist’s Competition will officially come to an end." Just as the host was speaking, suddenly, an angry voice came through, "Brother Lei Hu, isn’t Dragon Shadow your sworn enemy? Why would you work for Dragon Shadow Villa!?"
Xiong Fei stood up, his face full of anger.
Lei Hu stood on the stage, hearing the familiar voice and couldn’t help but look up.
When he saw Xiong Fei, he shuddered and blurted out, "Xiong Fei..."
"Brother Lei Hu, please come back to us!" Monkey stood up and said.
"Lei Hu, big brother, we wait for you!" Qian Lei said earnestly.
"Monkey, Qian Lei!" Lei Hu’s eyes filled with tears when he saw the two of them. Then he forced a bitter smile and said, "I’m sorry, I can’t return..."
"I would challenge him!" Suddenly, Xiong Fei stepped onto the stage.
"Interesting!"
"He’s just a lowly fourth-grade Grandmaster and dares to challenge the eighth-grade Lei Hu!"
"Courting death!" Many experts in the crowd couldn’t help but scoff.
"Even if I have to die, I want to make big brother Lei Hu turn back!"
"Count me in!" The Monkey and Qian Lei also followed behind Xiong Fei.
"Huh, three fourth-grade Grandmasters?"
"Heh, so what? They’re still walking a path to their death against Lei Hu!" Initially surprised, many in the audience then shook their heads.
"Brothers, don’t force me. I don’t want to hurt you!" Lei Hu revealed a pained expression, his body trembling.
"Lei Hu, big brother, you are our best big brother. Tell us, why are you running errands for that bastard of Dragon Shadow?" Xiong Fei asked.
"Who are these guys?" Chen, sitting in the chief seat, looked displeased.
"Don’t know them. They must be friends of Lei Hu from the past, just kill them!" Dragon Shadow said with a feigned smile.
"Lei Hu, big brother!" Xiong Fei and the two others approached Lei Hu.
"Brothers, don’t come any closer!" Lei Hu shouted. Suddenly, he covered his head with both hands, showing a look of agony as his face twisted into a fierce grimace, "Ah, my head hurts so much!"
The next moment, Lei Hu’s eyes suddenly turned blood red, and his body emitted a terrifying aura like that of a ferocious beast!
"Go to hell!"
Lei Hu, like a tiger descending the mountain, ferociously charged at Xiong Fei and the others.
"Lei Hu, big brother, even if you kill us, we are willing!"
"The skills we have are all thanks to your teaching!"
"Take them then!" Xiong Fei and the others faced death unflinchingly.
Seeing this, Lei Hu punched the stage fiercely, and with a ’boom,’ the stage that was sturdy as iron unexpectedly cracked like a spiderweb.
"Ah!" Lei Hu showed an expression of extreme pain.
"Get rid of those three eyesores for me!" Dragon Shadow said, displeased.
"Dragon Shadow Villa, you wouldn’t mind if they were killed, right?" Zhan Xiang’s tone carried a hint of murderous intent.
"Of course not!" Dragon Shadow replied with a smile.
Zhan Xiang revealed a sinister smile. He wanted to test the strength of the two new experts he recruited and, at the same time, do a favor for Dragon Shadow!
"Iron Claw, Jin Gang, send these three eyesores on their way!" Zhan Xiang commanded authoritatively.
"Yes, Hall Master!" Iron Claw and Jin Gang responded.
Both were experts Zhan Xiang had recruited that day, each a seventh-grade Grandmaster.
Both stepped onto the stage simultaneously. Iron Claw said coldly, "You three trash, thinking you can make trouble without looking at the place!"
"I’ll send you off to paradise!" Jin Gang, quick-tempered, launched an attack immediately.
It’s over!
Xiong Fei and the others’ faces turned pale, sweat pouring down.
"This is bad, Xiong Fei and the others are in danger!"
"Wudao brother, save them quickly!" Su Yueli and the two women looked anxiously at Ye Wudao, only to suddenly realize his figure had disappeared into thin air.
In the heat of the moment, just as Jin Gang was about to strike Xiong Fei and the others, a bold figure exuding the dominance of a dragon stood in front of the three.
"You dare to lay a hand on my people?"
