Wang Zongquan lay motionless on the marble floor. At this moment, it was as if the entire hall had been frozen in time. There was an indescribable silence.
"How is this possible?!"
"This is a lie, right?! Wang Zongquan lost, just like that! "
"Is that Shifeng a human or a ghost?!"
…
Everyone couldn't believe their eyes as they looked at Wang Zongquan's unconscious body. Wang Zongquan was an internal force master, an existence that stood at the apex of Fenglin City, yet Shi Feng, who didn't seem to radiate any aura or power, had defeated him so easily.
In fact, this fight couldn't even be called a fight. It had been a one-sided banter.
"Wang Zongquan should be very strong, right? So many experts feared him, right? How did he lose so easily? "
"Did the Heaven's Rumble Training Center hire Wang Zongquan to put on a show?"
"That's probably the case. Do you know how powerful internal force masters are? That Shifeng is so young. How powerful could he possibly be? Moreover, Wang Zongquan's sudden appearance is very strange. The Heaven's Rumble Training Center must have hired Wang Zongquan to fake this match to increase its reputation. "
When the fighting enthusiasts in the hall saw Wang Zongquan's effortless defeat, they couldn't help thinking that Wang Zongquan was putting on a show. Or rather, this match had been fixed.
After all, Wang Zongquan had fought Fire Dance on equal footing. They had, more or less, seen how powerful Wang Zongquan was.
However, from start to finish, they hadn't seen anything particularly impressive about the fight between Shifeng and Wang Zongquan. It felt as if Wang Zongquan had deliberately catered to the Shifeng. The instant the Shifeng grabbed his wrist, Wang Zongquan had leaped into the air, only to be thrown to the ground.
At this moment, the fighting enthusiasts weren't the only ones who felt that the fight was fake. Even the training center and dojo's disciples felt the same way. An internal force expert's control over his strength was far superior to ordinary people's. Grabbing Wang Zongquan's wrist and throwing him should have been impossible.
"A fake match?" Xiao Yu was also dumbfounded.
However, his instincts told him that this was impossible. After all, he had never heard the Shifeng mention such a thing. Moreover, the Starline Corporation had been keeping an eye on the Heaven's Rumble Training Center for a long time. Only the Starline Corporation could possibly hire someone like Wang Zongquan. Most importantly, why would an apex internal force master ruin his own reputation for the sake of the Heaven's Rumble Training Center's?
While Xiao Yu was wondering why Wang Zongquan would do such a thing, Chen Tianhe, who was standing beside Xiao Yu, had an indescribable look of horror on his face.
"Neutralizing … force … he's a neutralizing force grandmaster!" Chen Tianhe stared at the Shifeng in the middle of the hall and muttered to himself as if he had seen a ghost.
"HuaJin … Grandmaster?" Xiao Yu couldn't help but ask Chen Tianhe, "Master Chen, are you saying that the Shifeng is a Neutralizing Grandmaster?"
In the fighting world, anyone capable of grasping internal force was an absolute expert. Only one in a thousand fighters could accomplish such a feat. Their understanding and application of physical strength far surpassed that of ordinary people. No matter where they went, they would be qualified to open training centers and accept disciples. Hence, everyone called such people masters.
Meanwhile, above internal force was neutral force. To ordinary people, just coming into contact with internal force experts was already impressive. Many ordinary people might not even get the chance to meet a neutral force expert in their entire lives. Every one of these people was a giant in the fighting world, and they were qualified to compete for the world's number one spot. Their fame and status were not something that people like Chen Tianhe and Wang Zongquan could compare to.
If one had to describe the difference between the two, it would be like comparing a firefly to the moon.
"That might be the case," Chen Tianhe said uncertainly. "But how can there be such a young neutralizing force grandmaster in this world? Even ancient aristocratic families can't nurture such a young neutralizing force grandmaster. "
Ordinary people and even ordinary fighting experts might not be able to tell that Shifeng had grabbed and thrown Wang Zongquan. However, as someone who had reached the pinnacle of internal force, Chen Tianhe could tell just how frightening Shifeng's application of physical strength was.
First, Shifeng had diverted Wang Zongquan's strength. Then, before Wang Zongquan could regain his strength, Shifeng had used both Wang Zongquan's strength and his own to throw Wang Zongquan to the ground.
While these actions might seem simple, they were extremely difficult to accomplish in an instant. Only neutralizing force grandmasters who could push their muscles to their limits could accomplish such a feat.
However, what made Chen Tianhe uncertain was that Shifeng was too young!
Chen Tianhe could be considered one of the top experts in the country. Moreover, he had been famous for many years now. He had seen far more than ordinary internal force experts and had even come into contact with neutralizing force grandmasters. However, he had never heard of a twenty-year-old neutralizing force grandmaster.
At this moment, Chen Tianhe wasn't the only one who stared at Shifeng in fear. Even Master Yang from the Extreme Light Dojo, Zhang Wuya, and other internal force experts stared at Shifeng in disbelief.
"This is impossible! How can he be a neutralizing force grandmaster?! "Zhang Tianya stared at Shifeng in disbelief.
Ordinary people had limited insight, so they might not be able to see through Wang Zongquan's trick. However, internal force experts like them could see the crux of the matter.
Wang Zongquan's fight might seem fake to these people, but that was only because Shifeng's control of his strength was too ingenious. He had already reached the stage of simplifying the fight. Hence, in everyone's eyes, it seemed fake.
"A neutralizing force grandmaster?! Shifeng is actually so powerful?! "Zhao Yueru could not help her excitement when she heard this.
Although she had no idea what a neutralizing force grandmaster was, she was aware of how powerful they were. They were definitely at the apex of the country. Even the various top dojos and training centers feared them.
When Gentle Snow saw this scene, she felt an indescribable sense of familiarity and shock.
She could tell that Shi Feng's control of his body and strength was extremely close to the Realms of Refinement and Truth. It was as if Shi Feng had merged the two into one. Only, this should be a technique from God's Domain, yet Shi Feng was actually using it in the real world …
Meanwhile, Zhuo Linqiu, who sat in a corner of the room, was shocked as he looked at Shifeng.
He had never thought that Shifeng would be such an expert!
He's actually telling the truth!
Although Zhuo Linqiu was afraid of an aristocratic family's disciple, it was not to the extent where he dared not take action. However, a neutralizing force grandmaster was a different story. A neutralizing force grandmaster was practically superhuman. Compared to Shifeng, who was a neutralizing grandmaster, Fire Dance's identity as an aristocratic family's disciple was nothing.
Even the various major corporations had to treat neutralizing grandmasters with respect. After all, neutralizing grandmasters were simply too influential in the fighting world. Moreover, there were times when the various major corporations needed to request the assistance of such experts. After all, assassinations were common occurrences for the various major corporations. Only neutralizing grandmasters could guarantee the various major corporations' safety.
At this moment, the internal force experts present finally understood that Shifeng had not been lying when he said that Fire Dance was indeed a Shifeng's disciple. After all, it was not impossible for a neutralizing grandmaster to nurture an internal force expert. After all, there were simply too many such examples.
While everyone was quietly discussing the situation, Wang Zongquan woke up from his coma. His mind was a blur, and he felt a stabbing pain all over his body. Several of his bones had been broken, and he would need at least a month to recover from this injury.
