The first was not from Aslan. If it had been them, they would not have been so sneaky. There were about a dozen others hidden around. Regardless, the first person was pretty brave.
Wang Zheng fiddled with the bonfire, gently rubbing his wristband. He looked at the newcomer. "Tell me your name."
"Norton Star team leader, Zhang Zhun. Pleased to meet you." Zhang Zhun's face was serious.
The first person who came up to him was not someone who wanted to become famous, nor was it someone who wanted to kill him. It was … an admirer.
The Norton Star was not weak. Out of 128 teams, they were ranked around 70th. It would be very difficult for them to break through. More importantly, his team members had met with some problems during the qualifiers. Basically, there was no hope for the Norton Star. Hence, he wanted to fulfill his dream of coming here.
Wang Zheng could tell the difference between killing intent and sincerity. But in a situation like this, that sincerity was especially dangerous. These people were not just spectators, but could shoot at any time.
Wang Zheng still made a gesture of invitation. Zhang Zhun took off his shirt, revealing his solid muscles.
With a roar, his muscles expanded, and a powerful aura swept out. Ability X?
The forest was doubtful, but it was not. Wang Zheng could feel that this power was from within, and not borrowed from the outside.
Zhang Zhun's body was enveloped in a layer of power, which surprised Wang Zheng. This was probably the ancient martial artist that Charcoal had mentioned.
"Heaven Raising Steel Body – Zhang Zhun!"
Ping … He took a step, and the ground shook. Dust exploded, and Zhang Zhun was already flying towards Wang Zheng.
Boom …
Zhang Zhun was stunned, and so were the people in the shadows. Zhang Zhun's punch had landed solidly, directly on Wang Zheng's face.
Wang Zheng's leg feinted, and Zhang Zhun did two backflips to dodge. Wang Zheng rubbed his face, and stretched his neck. The lack of pain was a very troublesome thing. He needed to get into the zone. Pain could make his judgment faster and clearer. Although he could not feel it, it had awakened his memories.
"Looks like your physical skills are of the heavy defense type. If you can take one of my punches, you win."
Wang Zheng said. Zhang Zhun was taken aback, and those in the shadows were shocked as well. What did this mean? Oh no, Wang Zheng was going to run, and find an excuse to concede!
But no one dared to act rashly, because whoever made a move now would replace Wang Zheng as the next target. The second person's hatred was still very high, but if it was the third … the situation would be much better.
Moreover, this Zhang Zhun was much harder to deal with.
All eyes were on Zhang Zhun, who suddenly nodded and took a step back. He looked very serious.
Only those who truly trained in physical techniques could see the true essence of Wang Zheng's battle. Perhaps most people saw Ability X, a shocking compound ability. But Zhang Zhun knew that Ability X was not the key to victory, but the powerful physical techniques that ran through the entire battle. That invincible spinning shovel that had defeated Mars was a result of his shocking physical techniques. Anyone who trained in physical techniques would tremble, unable to control their desires.
* Roar … *
Zhang Zhun's body was like a monster's. His eyes blazed. As a martial artist, he had longed countless times to test Wang Zheng's strength. What kind of power could that wondrous realm produce?
Zhang Zhun was fully focused, his arms before his chest. No matter how fierce Wang Zheng's punch was, he could block it!
Essence, spirit, and spirit as one!
Wang Zheng's lips curled into a smile. Interesting. He more or less understood why Zhang Zhun had longed for a battle with him. He had entered a state of calm, with no breakthrough. That feeling was like hell. He had seen his performance at the Greatest King Competition, and knew of his own realm. He wanted to find a breakthrough here.
Except, he really knew how to pick the right time.
Wang Zheng took a step forward, suddenly moving, and punching …
At this moment, someone in the dark had already aimed a laser gun at him. When there were so many people, all sorts of things would happen. Admittedly, some people had reservations, but some people had no reservations at all. If they could get rid of Wang Zheng, no matter what the final outcome was, they would become famous overnight. That was enough.
But given Wang Zheng's skill, it would be very dangerous if he missed. When he used his full strength, that would be when he was at his weakest.
Wang Zheng's fist flew towards the fully defending Zhang Zhun. Just as he was about to close, a gunshot rang out from the forest.
If Wang Zheng wanted to hit Zhang Zhun, he would definitely be hit by the lasers. Blocking the lasers with his body was a pipe dream. The gun was aimed at Wang Zheng's temple. He was dead!
Given Wang Zheng's ability, he could definitely pull back halfway. But that would be a violation of the agreement, and a complete joke.
Everyone laughed coldly. They had thought Wang Zheng to be some incredible person, but he was nothing more than that. He had become so arrogant after taking the Greatest King title. Posturing was fine, but there was a price to be paid.
This was why even the leaders of the top 10 seeded teams kept a low profile, even forming alliances. Victory was king.
Bang …
With a loud explosion, Zhang Zhun was sent flying dozens of meters. Rumble … All the trees along the way were smashed to pieces.
Wang Zheng did not pause after his punch, disappearing into the forest to the side.
Three seconds later, a shrill scream rose to the skies. There was a rustling sound in the forest.
After a while, Wang Zheng walked out, step by step. But there was an extra hand in his hand, and a token in that hand.
Returning to the campfire, Wang Zheng threw the hand and token aside, quietly waiting for his next opponent.
But the forest was quiet. The onlookers could see clearly that Wang Zheng had punched out, but it had not been aimed at Zhang Zhun. Instead, it had sent Zhang Zhun flying through the air.
What kind of ability was this!!!
Ability X?
Although Ability X could be determined by the five elements of Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth, that was an ancient saying in the Solar System. Nowadays, it was more popular to use control system, strengthening system, external system, special system, etc to determine one's ability. The external system might not be effective in mecha battles, but it was very strong in close combat.
But … Wang Zheng's Ability X had been restricted. How could he have such power?
Most importantly, had he known about that sneak attack, or had it been a coincidence?
The hand beside the campfire was especially terrifying, and the precious token had been casually thrown to the ground.
Footsteps sounded again, a little messy. Zhang Zhun … had returned.
Wang Zheng was a little surprised as well. This kid did not know what was good for him. If not for the fact that he had held back a little, he would not be able to stand now.
Wang Zheng's principle for this battle was to give them a taste of their own medicine. If the other party was here to learn from each other, he would accompany them. If the other party had killing intent, he would return the favor. As for those who shot at him from the back, he would definitely not give them a second chance.
Zhang Zhun clutched his chest as he walked back step by step. Given his ability, he naturally knew that Wang Zheng had held back in that punch. It was on a completely different level. His whole body was aching, but it could not stop Zhang Zhun's feverish gaze.
This was the power of a grandmaster, even stronger than his own master. A person younger than him had actually reached such a level. Both physical technique and Ability X were at the same level.
Zhang Zhun looked at the hand and token on the ground, unsurprised. He respectfully fished out his own token and was about to place it on the ground.
Wang Zheng waved him off. "Take it. I don't lack death seekers."
Was he domineering? Arrogant?
It was nothing. Wang Zheng had just gotten a feel for it. He hoped that more of those who did not know better would be suppressed by Kashawen. Feeling the immense pressure of this society's rules, Wang Zheng needed a release.
Zhang Zhun smiled bitterly. Even if Wang Zheng did not want it, he could not keep it. He dared say that if he left 10 meters from here, he would be finished.
Wang Zheng seemed to have realized this problem as well. "I'm lacking someone to tidy up. It'll be messy in a while. If you're not afraid of death, you can stay."
Zhang Zhun smiled excitedly upon hearing this. He kept his token and sat to one side.
To be able to witness a battle between pros at such a close distance was a great help to his growth. That punch had given Zhang Zhun much inspiration. A pity that his perceptivity was too poor, and he lacked that bit of feeling.
Looking at the number on the token, Zhang Zhun was stunned. "It's Earthworm Federation's Stowe."
Earthworm Federation was not considered weak. It felt like there were about 50 of them among the many teams. Stowe would not even be able to land a blow on Wang Zheng.
Stowe's neck had already changed shape.
Zhang Zhun could feel that Wang Zheng was already controlling his murderous aura. But any dangerous attack could cause him to retaliate savagely.
A terrifying aura enveloped Wang Zheng. Zhang Zhun could clearly feel his hairs standing on end.
Wang Zheng was waiting. He was waiting for those pros to come. Anyone who coveted Aina would really have to die!
(Second update here. Even the storm could not stop the fiery passion. I hope that Wang Zheng's pretentious companions can give me a monthly ticket. Give me some strength, give me some passion. At this time, I need to ignite, I need heat. Kill them!!!)
