Shang Jingtian's advance caused Xiao Zheng to be surprised. Even his pride as an expert was being provoked. He was known for his explosive power, using his ferocious methods to subdue his enemies. Very few people dared to fight him in close combat. Even during the autumn harvest, he would fight in a roundabout manner, displaying his advantages to the extreme.
This Shang Jingtian had a strange personality and was cautious, who knew that his fighting style would be so ferocious. This caused Xiao Zheng to be surprised, but at the same time, he was filled with boundless fighting spirit!
Pa!
Xiao Zheng raised his left arm, the muscles in his arm exploded, forcefully blocking Shang Jingtian's elbow, and the blade in his right hand slashed out. He suddenly executed the Dragon Raises Its Head that he had trained for a long time!
The Dragon Raises Its Head was the result of the fusion of Xiao Zheng's ultimate technique, the Nameless Blade, and the old monk's Dragon Hand. Its might was ferocious, and it was filled with tyrannical might. A normal blade already possessed unparalleled strength. Furthermore, the range of the attack was so wide that it was impossible to dodge.
But when Xiao Zheng executed the Dragon Raises Its Head halfway, Shang Jingtian's body suddenly bounced backwards, anticipating Xiao Zheng's attack, and escaped from the attack range of the Dragon Raises Its Head.
With this, Shang Jingtian had gained the initiative, and he even seemed to be toying with Xiao Zheng. This caused everyone to be dumbfounded, extremely astonished.
"It can be fought like this?"
Emperor Ling Lai's horizons were broadened, he was completely attracted by this battle that did not seem intense, but was filled with wisdom.
In the martial path, other than explosive power, speed, and accuracy, the overall situation was also the key to victory, and it was extremely important.
It was like a tough guy fighting against an experienced middle-aged man. As long as the middle-aged man had good mental fortitude, rich experience, and knew how to play to his strengths, he would be able to control the rhythm of the battle. Then even if he was lacking in martial arts, he would still have a high chance of winning.
In any field, the test of mental fortitude was always the most important.
Along the way, Xiao Zheng had killed many of the Eight Ultimates. He even killed the two sons of the Zhao Family at the same time, what did he rely on? It was an extremely strong psychological quality, a determination that was not afraid of death!
But now, Xiao Zheng, whose overall strength was outstanding, was facing Shang Jingtian. Not only was his overall strength outstanding, his mental fortitude top-notch, he was also a Shang Jingtian with superb tactics!
In just one minute of fighting, Shang Jingtian had displayed an unbelievable ability to predict and see the big picture. He knew how to fight against Xiao Zheng. He had a better grasp of Xiao Zheng's advantages.
You're good at close combat?
Then I'll fight you in close combat first!
Your Nameless Saber and Dragon Raising Its Head are unstoppable?
Then I will retreat from your attack range before you use it.
I will. You don't know.
But what you do, has been tested by countless Eight Ultimates with their lives!
In this battle, Xiao Zheng had no advantage at all, while Shang Jingtian had the upper hand!
Xiao Zheng's heart gradually sank.
He knew that he had encountered an expert that was completely different from the ones he had encountered before. The Shang Jingtian in front of him was not only powerful, but also had a terrifying foresight.
He could easily get close to me, and can quickly grasp my thoughts, then make an effective retreat and defense. If that's the case, Xiao Zheng's fight will be very difficult. But he still has to be wary of Shang Jingtian's vicious attacks!
"Looks like you haven't been wasting your time these past few years" Xiao Zheng slightly tightened his grip on the saber in his hand, coldly glancing at Shang Jingtian.
Shang Jingtian seemed to have found his confidence in the battle just now. Although his expression was still solemn, his thin lips slightly opened: "This is your choice, I gave you a chance to stop the battle"
"Don't be too happy" Xiao Zheng frowned, his lips curled into a cold smile. "You only have a slight advantage in terms of influence, but you don't pose any actual threat to me"
"You'll know soon enough" Shang Jingtian coldly stared at Xiao Zheng. "Martial arts is not as simple as you think! A true powerhouse doesn't just rely on brute force! "
Saying so, Shang Jingtian's figure flashed, charging in front of Xiao Zheng at a strange angle. Left hand iron fist, right hand dagger. Just like in wuxia novels, he actually split his attention to attack Xiao Zheng!
Xiao Zheng's expression darkened, he casually swung his saber and slashed in the air, forcefully repelling Shang Jingtian's attack. But in his heart, he was secretly planning. Using Dragon Raises Its Head consumes a lot of stamina, it requires the perfect coordination of every bone and muscle in the body. The test of mental power is also very cruel. Although it's powerful, it might not be able to hit its target in one hit. Especially when facing Shang Jingtian, a powerhouse of the Eight Ultimates who uses tough tactics.
If that's the case, it would be unwise to fight, and it would put him in a passive state at any time.
So, when he decided to advance step by step, he was completely suppressed by Shang Jingtian for the first 5 minutes.
Especially after Xiao Zheng refused to easily use Dragon Raises Its Head, Shang Jingtian's fighting style became more and more ferocious. He almost injured Xiao Zheng a few times. If it wasn't for his rich combat experience, he might not be able to withstand Shang Jingtian's violent attacks.
"This Boss Shang — — he really doesn't show his true colors." King Ling Lai, who was sitting on the wheelchair, squinted his eyes and glanced at the middle-aged man who was standing next to him.
This man was dressed in a tight outfit, he was a martial arts master personally hired by King Ling Lai after he took control of the royal palace. In terms of strength, he barely touched the edge of the Eight Ultimates. Even at his peak, Wu Teng could easily defeat him.
But Heng Shan's true strength wasn't his combat ability, but his research on various martial arts.
Heng Shan could easily point out the strengths of each of the Eight Ultimates listed by Hua Xia, and draw up a complete set of defensive fighting style. As long as he was strong enough, he wouldn't suffer too much. But to win — — Heng Shan had no tricks.
"Your Majesty, for now. Boss Shang has used at least three sets of ultimate skills. And, they are all imitations of other masters. "Heng Shan lowered his head slightly and said with his lips pursed. "As far as I know, the whip kick he used just now was learned from the second son of the Bai family."
"Is Bai Ziwen willing to teach him?" King Ling Lai asked.
"He can learn it secretly even if he doesn't want to," Heng Shan said with a smile. "This Boss Shang came to my house and stayed for a week ten years ago."
"Oh?" King Ling Lai was slightly curious. "Why did he come to your house?"
Shang Jingtian was Hua Xia's richest man, while Heng Shan was just a slightly famous martial arts master. There shouldn't be any interaction between the two, right?
"My house is shabby, and I have nothing to entertain Boss Shang with. But — "Heng Shan smiled bitterly. "He knows I'm obsessed with studying martial arts. So, he gave me a huge sum of money. He asked me to list out the strengths and weaknesses of every Hua Xia master for him to study. "
King Ling Lai's lips curled up slightly. "Including Lin Chaotian's?"
Heng Shan shook his head firmly. "No one has seen Boss Lin fight. At least as far as I know, Boss Lin has never fought with anyone. So, I don't know him at all. But, as long as he fought with someone, I made a file for him. I think he hasn't been idle for the past ten years. Not only did he learn how to defeat his enemies, but he also studied the essence of these masters' ultimate skills. "
"Actually —" Heng Shan shook his head and said helplessly. "If Boss Shang wants to study the ultimate skills of these masters, he only needs to spar or challenge them. It's far more accurate than asking me to calculate."
"If he is willing to spar or challenge them, his wife wouldn't have died in the hands of Mu Qingsong." King Ling Lai squinted his eyes slightly. "Then, he wouldn't be the scheming Shang Jingtian."
"It seems that this battle is extremely disadvantageous for Boss Xiao." Heng Shan blinked his eyes.
"Boss Xiao hasn't used his full strength yet." King Ling Lai shook his head slightly and said in a relaxed manner. "I don't believe that Boss Xiao can always win, but I also don't believe that the master who broke Boss Xiao's undefeated record is a coward like Shang Jingtian."
