"Dong Yi! Dong Yi! Dong Yi! "
The cheers echoed in the arena, full of a sense of tragedy. Dong Yi's eyes were slightly wet. He endured the pain, waved his uninjured left hand, turned around, and walked out of the arena lonely.
Such cheers, such attention, and such attention were what he had been longing for for a long time …
But the sad thing was that it was a failure, not a victory.
Fortunately, Lou Cheng's right arm was injured, so he would be crippled for the rest of the match. It opened the door for him to win the final round. He didn't let down the heavy burden on his shoulders.
As he waved his hand and left the arena, the cheers of "Dong Yi, Dong Yi" became louder and louder. Lou Cheng listened quietly and watched his opponent leave. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Although he couldn't understand his thoughts or his choice, he respected the decisiveness, firmness, and courage he had just displayed. Not every martial artist would dare to do so.
Lou Cheng moved his right arm a little and checked his injury. He didn't find any symptoms of bone fracture, but the place where he was poked was swollen. His muscles and fascia were damaged to a certain extent, which seriously affected his strength. In other words, it was an injury that could be healed in a short time. But the problem was that "a short time" was at least a few days. In the upcoming match, his arm would be crippled.
Forget it, I'll do my best. Even if I lose an arm, I'm still not an Amateur First Pin fighter. No matter what, I can exhaust him and create an opportunity for Sun Jian to win the match.
In the amateur level, the gap between First Pin fighters was actually not that big.
At this time, he was puzzled to find that the third fighter of Fearless Squad didn't rush to the arena. Instead, he stayed where he was and discussed something with Qiu Yang.
Did he give up? Did he think that my stamina was limitless, so he didn't care about giving me more time to recover?
Lou Cheng didn't waste this opportunity. He closed his eyes, concealed his spirit and qi, and quickly entered a state of meditation. He put himself in a state close to sleep.
Recovering a little bit of spirit was good.
The Jindan was like a nebula, constantly expanding and shrinking, rotating slowly. Lou Cheng felt like he was looking inside his own home. Thoughts settled one after another, floating like floating clouds. His heart was empty and quiet.
…
Seeing that Lou Cheng could still move his right arm, Yan Zheke heaved a sigh of relief and sat back down. She pouted and complained to Dong Yi,
"How can this be?"
This wasn't an important match, so it wouldn't affect their chances of advancing to the next round. Why was his opponent acting like a madman and paying the price of a serious fracture just to hurt Cheng?
Cheng's injury looked like he would recover in at most ten days, but it was not the case for his opponent. As the saying goes, it takes a hundred days to recover from a serious injury. Even if a martial artist's physique was outstanding and his recovery ability was extremely strong, he would not be able to fight again for at least fifty to sixty days before reaching the Inhuman level. By then, the group matches would have ended long ago!
Wouldn't it be stupid to miss the next five matches just for this one match?
How much hatred and resentment?
While Yan Zheke felt distressed, confused and indignant, Geezer Shi replied with a sigh.
"There are too many bigoted people in this world, and there are also too many bystanders who can't understand what they value."
"With Fearless Squad's strength and martial artist style, without today's incident, when Qiu Yang returns and Wei Shengtian is alive and kicking again, how would Dong Yi have the chance to be remembered? Maybe he won't even be able to go on stage. The two people in front will take care of everything. "
"After being ignored for so long, I have a desire to prove myself."
"Maybe this is a kind of martial artist's spirit."
Wei Shengtian majored in Bright Stone Skill. Lou Cheng had restrained his strength at the end and used a delicate force, so although he was hit hard just now, in fact, he was not seriously injured. For him, what was more uncomfortable was that his internal organs were shaken. After a few days of rest, he would be able to recover to his peak state.
Yan Zheke was born in a martial arts family, so she could understand. She nodded silently to show that she understood.
But even so, she still disliked Dong Yi and still felt distressed for Lou Cheng.
…
In the live broadcast room, the host of Yimo local TV station was shocked by the resolute and tragic scene. After a long time, he murmured, "It's not necessary … Xiaowei, what do you think?"
He Xiaowei smacked his lips and said, "This match … is a bit tragic. If not for the background, I would have thought it was the key battle for the qualification of Songcheng division."
"Dong Yi's courage is admirable, but I can't understand his choice. With Fearless Squad's strength, losing this match won't be so bad that they can't qualify. They have already defeated another popular team, Azure Dragon Squad, in the last match. The following matches are all opponents who are obviously weaker than them. Losing a match would at most be a loss of face. But now, I'm afraid Dong Yi will miss all the following group matches. Whether he can participate in the knockout match in May depends on his recovery. The loss outweighs the gain."
"Of course, with only the recovered Qiu Yang and Wei Shengtian, Fearless Squad will be able to defeat the weak in the following group matches. It's not a big problem even without Dong Yi. When they challenged Azure Dragon Squad in an away match, didn't Qiu Yang win two matches in a row, Wei Shengtian won the last match, and Dong Yi disguised as a coach to watch and cheer?"
Fearless Squad was led by Wei Shengtian without a coach.
As for Lou Cheng's group, the favorites to qualify were Yimo's "Fearless Squad" with one Dan Stage and two Professional Ninth Pin fighters, and Songcheng's "Azure Dragon Squad" with four Professional Ninth Pin fighters. If their strength was compared horizontally, in Xiushan's division, they could directly enter the second stage of the preliminaries. In many divisions, even if there was only one Professional Ninth Pin fighter leading the team, there was still hope for the team to qualify and participate in the knockout round.
In the middle of Lou Cheng's group, there were two Professional Ninth Pin fighters in Hongluo Squad and Songcheng University Martial Arts Club members. The other four teams were relatively weak. Two teams only had one Professional Ninth Pin fighter, and the other two teams were purely amateur teams who came to see and experience because there were no restrictions in the preliminaries.
In other words, even if Fearless Squad were to lose the match with Lou Cheng's team, the only opponent with any weight behind them would be Hongluo Squad. Moreover, it would be in the last round. Although He Xiaowei was exaggerating a little by saying that the rest of the competition would be Hongluo Squad, he wasn't wrong.
The TV host listened and agreed. He couldn't understand Dong Yi's choice, so he could only smooth things over. "No matter what, Dong Yi showed us the courage and spirit of a fighter. Xiaowei, what do you think of the next match?"
He Xiaowei laughed and said, "Although Lou Cheng's hand is temporarily disabled, he has mercurial balance and abnormal physical strength. Why would he be afraid of an Amateur First Pin fighter? He will exhaust his opponent to death! Even if Lou Cheng reaches his limit halfway, Songcheng University Martial Arts Club has other fighters. I think Fearless Squad will lose 99% of the time. "
As soon as he finished, the TV host heard the director's prompt, and his expression suddenly became strange.
"Xiaowei, Fearless Squad's third fighter, Tan Ming, suddenly fell ill and can't fight. He will be replaced by a substitute."
He Xiaowei couldn't help but chuckle, "Are you scared? Are you scared? "
The TV host quickly added, "The substitute is Qiu Yang."
He Xiaowei was stunned and said,
"It's a bit interesting …"
The gamblers watching the live broadcast cheered and almost ran to tell others.
Good news, good news!
That toxic healer commentator supported Songcheng University Martial Arts Club!
And as soon as he supported, he immediately turned the situation around!
…
In Lou Cheng's private forum, which was originally full of content such as "Pity", "Is the opponent stupid", "Beat another Professional Ninth Pin fighter", and so on, suddenly exploded.
"All the Good Names Are Taken by Dogs" was the first to post, "Damn, where's your shame?"
"This is completely shameless! So angry, but I still have to keep a smile. Lou Cheng has won two rounds in a row, and he has earned enough. "" Eternal Nightfall "Yan Xiaoling followed.
"Unparalleled Dragon King" said weakly, "According to the rules, it's normal for a substitute to fight. Otherwise, why would there be a substitute … But the sudden illness is too fake …"
There were regulations on the conditions under which a substitute could fight. It was not something that could be changed by the coach on a whim. In that case, the list and order of the three main fighters would not be necessary. It was completely possible to decide who would fight first and put the original main fighters on the substitute. Depending on the situation, the order of replacement could be arranged flexibly.
Therefore, the competition supervisor had to confirm that the main fighters were injured, sick, or mentally broken before they could be replaced. Generally speaking, it was a last resort.
"Nie Qiqi" said bitterly, "Even if they shamelessly win this time, with the speed of Lou Cheng and Lin Que's growth, they can win the knockout round after the group competition. At that time, we can block them at the entrance of the qualification. That's the best way to vent our anger!"
"… I still want to say, beat that mad dog!" "Brahman" shouted.
Humph, kids don't need to think about reality anyway!
…
"Damn, I'm still waiting for Cheng to fight one against three!" In Songcheng University's dormitory, Cai Zongming blurted out.
His roommates cursed for a while before calming down. Zhao Qiang pushed his black-rimmed glasses and said, "It's worth it to lose since they can force Fearless Squad to this point. It doesn't matter anymore."
Classmate Little Ming looked at him "sadly".
"But I placed a bet …"
Although it was not much, it was still 200!
…
In Songcheng University Martial Arts Club's seating area, Yan Zheke wasn't angry. Instead, she solved the lingering doubts in her heart. She turned to look at Coach Shi and said, "They are really shameless …"
She wasn't angry or surprised, but she was very disappointed and distressed. She felt that Lou Cheng's all-out battle was wasted, and that Cheng's injury and pain just now were not worth it.
Geezer Shi snorted,
"To put it in a better way, Fearless Squad is full of abnormal desire for victory."
Beside and behind him, Li Mao and the others loosened their clenched fists and sighed. Lin Que closed his eyes and seemed to exhale softly.
…
"Qiu Yang! Qiu Yang! Qiu Yang! "
Seeing Qiu Yang walking into the ring, the desperate and tragic audience suddenly burst into thunderous cheers, making this name reverberate in every corner of the martial arts arena.
Lou Cheng, who was "sleeping" in the middle of the ring, felt that everything around him was being pulled away and separated from him. Although he vaguely felt that the sound around him suddenly became louder, he couldn't hear clearly what the audience was shouting.
After a while, he felt something in his heart and suddenly opened his eyes. He saw a big boy walking up the stone steps.
"Qiu Yang?" Lou Cheng blurted out in surprise.
Qiu Yang was also puzzled. He frowned slightly and said, "You just found out?"
You should have known from the moment the match supervisor checked Tan Ming's physical condition, right?
"I fell asleep just now …" Lou Cheng answered silently.
Of course, he didn't say it out loud. He felt that his answer would make him look wrong …
"Yes." He maintained an unfathomable smile and didn't explain anything. At the same time, he took a light breath and felt that his head was much clearer.
