The Shifeng's appearance stunned everyone present, and they all stared at the Shifeng in astonishment.
Wang Zongquan was no minor character. Even though he had lost to Fire Dance, he was still an apex internal force master. Even a top dojo or training center's Hall Master would have to treat him with respect.
Furthermore, Wang Zongquan had secretly worked as an assassin for a decade. Even the top dojos and training centers would have a headache if he tried to cause trouble outside.
"Does this Shifeng have a death wish? He just defeated Wang Zongquan, yet he dares to show himself. Does he really think that Wang Zongquan won't challenge him again?"
"What arrogance! Does he really think that he has the ability to nurture an internal force master?!"
The experts present looked at the Shifeng with disdain. They all thought that the Shifeng was arrogant and conceited. Fire Dance had gone to great lengths to resolve the Heaven's Rumble Training Center's crisis, yet he dared to show himself.
"Old Xiao, is this the youth you were talking about?" Chen Tianhe inwardly shook his head as he scrutinized the Shifeng. "He is too young and impetuous. Although he has the support of an aristocratic family's disciple, Wang Zongquan is not someone to be trifled with."
Although Wang Zongquan could not afford to offend the ancient aristocratic families, he had no problem killing the Heaven's Rumble Training Center's other members.
Even if the Shifeng had grasped internal force, nothing would change.
After all, Chen Tianhe had heard that Wang Zongquan had killed over a dozen internal force experts, some of whom had even reached the apex of internal force.
At the end of the day, a fighting competition was still a fighting competition. There were various rules and restrictions, and there were many methods that could not be used.
Even if one defeated Wang Zongquan in a fighting competition, Wang Zongquan would have no trouble killing them outside of the ring. After all, fighting and killing were two completely different concepts.
"So, he's that Shifeng?" Zhang Wuya, who stood a short distance away, jealousy flashed in his eyes as he looked at the Shifeng.
An aristocratic family's disciple!
Every one of them was in no way inferior to the heirs of major corporations. Even someone like Wang Zongquan had to give these aristocratic family members some face.
On the other hand, Shifeng's appearance was mediocre, like that of a neighbor's little brother. He didn't have any prominent family background either. Yet, he was able to obtain Fire Dance's favor and even support her. How could others not be envious of him?
In fact, in his opinion, there was an 80% chance that Shifeng had become internal force experts due to Fire Dance's help. After all, the Legacies and resources of ancient aristocratic families were far superior to those of top dojos and training centers. As long as one had some talent, becoming an internal force expert wouldn't be a problem.
If he had access to such resources, he would most likely already be on par with experts like Wang Zongquan.
While the spectators discussed among themselves, the Shifeng walked to the center of the room. Fire Dance then took the initiative to stand behind the Shifeng, as if she really was a member of the Heaven's Rumble Training Center.
Many of the experts present were envious and jealous.
"F * ck! I really don't know what kind of luck this brat has! He actually managed to earn the favor of such a goddess! "
"There's nothing we can do about it. He's just lucky to have an aristocratic family's disciple supporting him. Even Wang Zongquan can't do anything about it."
"That's right! We can't live off a woman. Otherwise, Wang Zongquan wouldn't be a problem. We could even open a top dojo. "
Many of the men in the room whispered among themselves, making no attempt to avoid the topic. As if they were afraid that Shifeng couldn't hear them, their voices grew louder and louder.
To the experts present, mastering internal force was already a cause for celebration. As for setting up their own training center in a first-tier city and developing it to the top of the industry, that was something they didn't even dare dream of.
However, if they had the help of an aristocratic family's disciple, achieving such a feat would be child's play.
Now that Shifeng had Fire Dance's support, it was only a matter of time before he became one of Fenglin City's big shots. In fact, Fenglin City's fighting industry might even look up to Shifeng in the future. The other top dojos and training centers' branches wouldn't dare act rashly against him.
Meanwhile, Zhuo Linqiu, who sat in a corner of the room, watched the exchange quietly.
"So that's the case. No wonder you're so confident in establishing yourself in Fenglin City." Zhuo Linqiu stared at Fire Dance, who stood behind Shifeng. He had absolutely no interest in the Shifeng himself. "With this, Ling Yi is somewhat qualified to earn the young master's attention."
Ordinary people and the many experts present might not even know what an aristocratic family's disciple was. However, as the manager of a major corporation and an apex internal force expert, Zhuo Linqiu knew far more than Chen Tianhe and Wang Zongquan.
While the crowd discussed the situation, Wang Zongquan arrived before Shifeng, his gaze filled with disdain and anger as he glared at Shifeng.
"Heaven's Rumble Training Center's Hall Master, huh? And here I thought you wouldn't dare show yourself," Wang Zongquan said, sneering. "Since you've come out, do you dare spar with me? I'd like to see if Hall Master Shi is truly capable of nurturing such an outstanding disciple. "
Fire Dance had humiliated him today. Originally, he had thought that he wouldn't have a chance to get revenge. However, Shifeng had taken the initiative to deliver himself to Shifeng. He naturally couldn't let this opportunity slip by.
Moreover, he had already made an agreement with Lu Xingluo to ruin the Heaven's Rumble Training Center's reputation. Now was the perfect opportunity. Even if Shifeng had the support of an aristocratic family's disciple, he could show everyone that Heaven's Rumble's Hall Master was a freeloader.
This way, not only would he regain his dignity, but he would also ruin the Heaven's Rumble Training Center's reputation.
"That won't be a problem. However, Master Wang, you've just been injured. Don't you need some time to rest? It won't be too late for us to spar then," Shifeng said.
"No need. It's just a minor injury. Let me experience Hall Master Shi's skills now!"
Without hesitation, Wang Zongquan took the initiative to attack Xiang Shifeng. He didn't give the Shifeng any time to speak.
In Wang Zongquan's opinion, the Shifeng was simply looking for an excuse to buy time. Naturally, he couldn't let the Shifeng succeed. The best way to deal with the Shifeng right now was to take action and give the Shifeng no opportunity to retaliate.
When the spectators saw this, they couldn't help but shake their heads and sneer.
"Shifeng really is a fool. Does he really think Wang Zongquan will let go of such a great opportunity?"
"Hahaha! He's going to embarrass himself this time!"
"He's just a brat who has only recently grasped internal force. Does he really think that an apex internal force expert like Wang Zongquan will hesitate just because he's injured?"
"What a fool! Does he really think that he can do whatever he wants just because he has the support of an aristocratic family's disciple?!"
Everyone understood that Shi Feng was trying to get Wang Zongquan to give up on today's match out of fear that he would lose due to his injuries. Unfortunately, with Wang Zongquan's personality, how could he not see through Shi Feng's intentions?
Moreover, everyone could see that, although Fire Dance had defeated Wang Zongquan, she had only recently grasped internal force. Her physique was far inferior to his. Although Fire Dance had injured Wang Zongquan, the latter's combat power was still intact. At the very least, he could exhibit 70% to 80% of his combat power. At this level, he could easily beat an internal force expert to a pulp.
In the next moment, Wang Zongquan's punch suddenly stopped in front of Shifeng.
How is this possible?! Wang Zongquan stared at his wrist in disbelief, confusion filling his heart.
Even though he was injured, his full-powered punch wasn't something an internal force expert could take head-on. In his opinion, Shifeng should've dodged or parried his punch.
Yet, Shifeng had used the most impossible method to grab Wang Zongquan's wrist.
Before Wang Zongquan could extricate himself from Shi Feng's grip, Shi Feng abruptly swung Wang Zongquan's hand as if he were swinging a weapon. Suddenly, Wang Zongquan became a sword in Shi Feng's hand, his body flying through the air, leaving behind afterimages as he transformed into a gust of wind. Everyone present felt a strong gust of wind blow past them.
Following which, everyone heard a loud boom as the ground trembled.
