Although Yu Qiaoqiao and Yi Yuqing had just stepped onto the stage, the upper echelons of the various dojos and training centers were ecstatic.
None of them had thought that today's friendly competition would turn out like this.
This should've been a stage for the White Tiger Dojo to display its overwhelming strength. Now, however, whether or not the White Tiger Dojo could reach the semifinals had become a problem.
However, compared to the various dojos and training centers' upper echelons, no one was more excited than Xie Qiwen.
Xie Qiwen's complexion had darkened. He had never thought that Gu Chen would be so useless as to lose to Evil Fire, whom he had never even heard of. The White Tiger Dojo had suffered a great humiliation this time. As the person in charge, he definitely had something to do with this.
"Xingteng, contact Big Dipper immediately. If they're willing to forfeit the competition, I'll give them the Green God Company's invitation. That way, we'll both have an easy time. Otherwise, once Yi Yuqing wins the championship, they'll get nothing," Xie Qiwen whispered to Gan Xingteng.
The current situation was considerably disadvantageous for him. Although Yi Yuqing was strong, she was no match for Gu Chen.
If Gu Chen had lost to Evil Fire because he had not dared to risk his life, the same could not be said for Yi Yuqing.
Xie Qiwen did not want to take this risk. In any case, the various dojos and training centers' goal was the Green God Company's invitation. Not only would he do them a favor, but he would also give them an invitation. For a small dojo like Big Dipper, this was a great opportunity.
After Gan Xingteng understood Xie Qiwen's intentions, he left the VIP stands and contacted the Big Dipper Group's Xiao Yu.
"Big Brother, what happened?" Xiao Yan asked curiously when he saw Xiao Yu's hesitant expression.
After this friendly competition, the Big Dipper Dojo's reputation would soar. In the future, the Big Dipper Dojo would have no problems breaking out of Jin Hai City. This was definitely something worth celebrating.
"It's the White Tiger Dojo. They've made some compromises and want us to forfeit the competition. They'll give us the Green God Company's invitation as compensation," Xiao Yu explained.
At the end of the day, the White Tiger Dojo was a top dojo. Unlike the Big Dipper Dojo, the White Tiger Dojo would still have a relationship with the White Tiger Dojo in the future.
If the Big Dipper Dojo won the championship, its reputation would soar. However, it would also offend the White Tiger Dojo and embarrass the White Tiger Dojo. In the future, the Big Dipper Dojo would have difficulty expanding to other cities, such as first- and second-tier cities.
However, if they gave the White Tiger Dojo some face now, it would definitely help the Big Dipper Dojo break out of Jin Hai City.
Neither of these two choices was easy to choose.
For a moment, Manager Xiao hesitated. However, he quickly shifted his gaze to the Shifeng. "Big Brother, rather than giving us a headache, why don't we let the Shifeng make the decision? After all, the Big Dipper Dojo is managed by the Shifeng. The Big Dipper Dojo's future development should be decided by the Shifeng."
"That's true." Xiao Yu could not help but smile bitterly. The Big Dipper Dojo's development had never been his responsibility. Rather than worrying about other matters, it would be better to leave it to the Shifeng. Although the Big Dipper Dojo looked young, his thoughts were unpredictable. After all, the Big Dipper Dojo's current achievements were all thanks to the Shifeng. If Shi Feng decided to make the decision on his own and went against the Shifeng's original intentions, it would be difficult to cooperate with him in the future.
Following which, Xiao Yu relayed Xie Qiwen's words to the Shifeng.
"Head Instructor Shi, what do you think?" Xiao Yu could not help but look at the Shifeng, curious to know what Shifeng's answer would be.
The White Tiger Dojo's favor was not that easy to obtain. If the Big Dipper Dojo wanted to expand to first- and second-tier cities, it would have to deal with the White Tiger Dojo.
Moreover, the Big Dipper Dojo might not necessarily win the championship. If they rejected the Big Dipper Dojo's offer, they might miss out on the Green God Company's invitation.
"Chairman Xiao, just tell them that we can obtain the Green God Company's invitation ourselves. We don't need their charity," Shifeng said straightforwardly.
The White Tiger Dojo was indeed a frightening existence. It was one of the top dojos in the country. Practically every first- and second-tier city had a branch. If Shi Feng wanted to expand to a first- and second-tier city, he would have to interact with the White Tiger Dojo.
Shi Feng knew what Xiao Yu and the others were thinking. If not for his reincarnation, he might have been tempted. After all, if he could establish a good relationship with a top dojo, he would have an easier time expanding to first- and second-tier cities. After all, they had been operating in those cities for many years.
Unfortunately, God's Domain was in the future!
The Big Dipper Dojo had only recently been established. If he wanted to recruit talented players as quickly as possible, raising his reputation was the fastest way to do so. This friendly competition was the best stepping stone. Naturally, he could not let this opportunity slip by.
If he waited a few more months, who knew if other dojos or training centers would recruit talented players? He was in a race against time. How could he afford to waste time with the White Tiger Dojo?
"This … I'm afraid …" Xiao Yu was stupefied. He had never thought that Shifeng would be so decisive.
This was the White Tiger Dojo they were talking about!
If they embarrassed the White Tiger Dojo, the Big Dipper Dojo would suffer in the future.
However, Xiao Yu could tell that Shifeng had made up his mind. Since the Big Dipper Dojo was under Shifeng's management, he naturally could not object. He could only sigh and reply to Gan Xingteng.
"What? You said they refused? "Xie Qiwen thought he had misheard and couldn't help but ask again.
"They said that they can obtain the Green God Company's invitation themselves. They don't need our help …" Gan Xingteng, too, had thought that he had misheard. However, Xiao Yu's answer was very certain.
"Good! Very good!" At this moment, Xie Qiwen's gaze was extraordinarily cold. He had never thought that a measly Big Dipper Dojo would dare to not give him face. "Let's wait and see, then! Go and tell Yi Yuqing that this matter concerns the dojo's honor. If necessary, have her remove the restriction. I'll pay for the recovery costs and resources! "
"Boss Qiwen, if you expose this move here, I'm afraid you'll have a hard time explaining it to the main branch." Gan Xingteng grew excited when he heard Xie Qiwen's words. He had never thought that he would have the opportunity to see Yi Yuqing remove the restriction. However, he soon grew worried.
"I'll bear the responsibility. I'll let these unrated dojos and training centers know that no matter how hard they try, their efforts are futile!" Xie Qiwen sneered as he glanced in the Shifeng's direction.
…
On the main stage, Yi Yuqing and Yu Qiaoqiao stared at each other, carefully observing each other. When the referee waved his hands and announced the start of the match, the two immediately charged at each other, invading each other's Attack Domain and snatching the other's Domain.
Although Yi Yuqing's attacks seemed soft and light, in reality, they were incomparably ferocious. Every one of her punches and palms caused the air to crackle.
Nobody knew that, although Yi Yuqing was a woman, her punches had long since reached 550kg of force. Over a century ago, she would've been a boxing champion. A single punch from her would've been enough to punch a hole in a concrete wall, and a single palm strike could shatter rock. Even a light blow from her would've been extremely dangerous for ordinary people.
Against Yi Yuqing's overwhelming attacks, ordinary people would've long since been overwhelmed. They would've hurriedly retreated, but Yu Qiaoqiao did not. Instead, she took the initiative to meet Yi Yuqing's attacks head-on. She brandished her arms, creating afterimages that clashed with Yi Yuqing's attacks. Her momentum was in no way inferior to Yi Yuqing's, and every time she blocked Yi Yuqing's attacks, the sound of collision echoing throughout the stage.
The audience was stupefied. In the blink of an eye, Yi Yuqing and Yi Yuqing had exchanged several moves. They were so fast that the audience had no time to react.
For over a dozen seconds, neither side had the upper hand.
It was obvious that it would not be easy for the two sides to determine the victor.
"After fighting for so long, I can't find any openings in your defense. I find it hard to believe that an expert like you would be willing to join a small dojo that has only recently been established." Yi Yuqing hurriedly retreated, giving Yu Qiaoqiao a strange look.
In terms of Strength and speed, she was clearly superior to Yu Qiaoqiao. Yet, Yu Qiaoqiao kept finding her openings, forcing her to parry and dodge. Yi Yuqing felt as if she were fighting an old fellow who had been participating in competitions for over a decade. Sometimes, Yi Yuqing's attacks even resembled those of the savage Evil Fire.
If Yi Yuqing hadn't witnessed Evil Fire's crazy methods, she might've been at a disadvantage.
Suddenly, Yi Yuqing noticed Gan Xingteng, who stood below the stage, gesturing at her. He was using the White Tiger Dojo's internal sign language, which all of the main dojo's disciples knew.
Xie Qiwen must be insane. This is just a friendly match. Is there a need to go so far? Yi Yuqing was shocked when she saw Gan Xingteng's hand gesture.
However, Yu Qiaoqiao didn't let this opportunity slip by. She took a step forward, her footsteps becoming ethereal. Her figure flickered as she circled to Yi Yuqing's side. She then sent a punch at Yi Yuqing's blind spot.
However, Yi Yuqing's reaction was too slow. It was impossible for her to dodge the attack.
Just as Yu Qiaoqiao's fist was about to hit Yi Yuqing's abdomen, a shadow suddenly appeared and blocked the attack.
Peng!
Even the referee, who was seven or eight meters away, could hear the crisp sound clearly.
How is this possible? Yu Qiaoqiao stared at Yi Yuqing in shock.
Yu Qiaoqiao's attack had been perfect. She had taken advantage of Yi Yuqing's moment of surprise to circle to her side and attack her blind spot. Yi Yuqing, who had been too slow, couldn't have blocked her attack.
Yet, Yi Yuqing's palm had blocked Yu Qiaoqiao's attack.
However, the most unbelievable part was Yu Qiaoqiao's explosive punch. Not only had Yi Yuqing blocked the attack, but she hadn't even taken a step back. It was as if Yu Qiaoqiao's punch had landed on a wall.
"You really are amazing. If I hadn't used Limit Removal, I'm afraid I would've lost that attack." Yi Yuqing could not help but sigh ruefully as she gripped Yu Qiaoqiao's fist. "I had planned to use this move during the national competition. I never thought I'd have to use it so early. However, since I've used it, this match should end soon."
Saying so, Yi Yuqing tightened her grip on Yu Qiaoqiao's hand. Yu Qiaoqiao's fist felt like a vise clamping down on her. No matter how hard Yi Yuqing tried, she couldn't break free. Yi Yuqing then clenched her other hand into a fist and threw a punch at Yu Qiaoqiao. The instant Yu Qiaoqiao swung her fist, an explosive sound echoed through the air. Both her speed and power were significantly higher than before. (To be continued.)
