The one who roared was Murong Xiong Tian. His roar caused all the soldiers who were about to pull the trigger to stop. As the leader of the seven secret forces, Murong Xiong Tian was a god-like existence in the hearts of the soldiers. His orders represented supreme authority among the soldiers.
Everyone's gazes fell on Murong Xiong Tian. Su Yi Cheng looked at him but didn't say anything, and Xuanyuan Sheng's gaze also became sharp. They both knew that a few months ago, Murong Xiong Tian had been defeated by Ling Chen in just three moves, and he had been beaten to the point where he bled from his seven orifices. After recovering, Murong Xiong Tian had been furious for a long time, and it was the greatest humiliation of his life.
Su Yi Cheng and Xuanyuan Sheng both knew what he wanted to do, so they didn't say anything.
Murong Xiong Tian pushed aside the soldiers around Ling Chen and stood in front of Ling Chen. He narrowed his eyes as he looked at Ling Chen, giving off an incredibly dignified aura.
Murong Xiong Tian's aura was incredibly shocking, and everyone felt as if there was a heavy iron plate weighing down on their chests, making it difficult for them to breathe. The entire hall became so silent that one could hear a pin drop. No one thought that such a shocking turn of events would occur at a birthday banquet. The Su family's princess had rejected the engagement with the Xuanyuan family, and someone who was wanted by the Long family had appeared, causing even Xuanyuan Sheng to lose control … what did Murong Xiong Tian want to do?
"You want to fight with me?" Facing Murong Xiong Tian's aura, Ling Chen didn't show any fear or panic like Murong Xiong Tian wanted to see. In fact, he didn't even look cautious. He just looked at Murong Xiong Tian and crossed his arms as he calmly looked at him.
How could Ling Chen not know what Murong Xiong Tian wanted to do?
"Hmph!" Murong Xiong Tian coldly harrumphed, and his already heavy aura became even more intense. His gaze darkened, as if there were 2 orbs of fire burning in his eyes, "Ling Chen, so you're still alive … not only are you still alive, but you've also recovered from such heavy injuries."
"No … It's not almost good, it's completely good." Ling Chen said with a smile.
That night, Murong Xiong Tian had seen the severity of Ling Chen's injuries. That injury was enough to kill a normal person countless times over. Even if it was Murong Xiong Tian, that kind of injury was more than enough to kill him. He had originally thought that even though Ling Chen had a monstrous physique and could survive such an injury, he would definitely be crippled … At the very least, his left hand had been pierced by Owl Wolf and his right arm had almost been chopped off by Xuanyuan Sheng. Even the best medical facilities in the world wouldn't be able to heal him.
However, Ling Chen was a complete freak, and his body couldn't be judged by normal standards. Not only had his injuries completely healed, but it had also taken him less than half a month to fully recover. If Murong Xiong Tian knew about this, he would be so shocked that his jaw would drop to the ground … no, he wouldn't believe it at all.
"You've completely recovered?" Murong Xiong Tian's eyebrows jumped as he coldly laughed, "That's for the best. You and I, let's fight fair and square. Last time, I was careless and underestimated my opponent, so I lost to you … and that was also the most shameful and unacceptable defeat of my life!! Only by completely defeating you will I be able to wash away this humiliation! "
To Murong Xiong Tian, that defeat was the greatest humiliation he had ever suffered in his life.
At that time, he had exchanged blows with Ling Chen three times. In the first exchange, Ling Chen had attacked, but Murong Xiong Tian hadn't dodged at all. Instead, he had met Ling Chen's attack head-on, sending him flying. Ling Chen's wrist was dislocated, but Murong Xiong Tian only felt a bit of pain. In the second exchange, Murong Xiong Tian's fist collided with Ling Chen's fist, sending Ling Chen flying tens of metres away. His entire right arm was dislocated, and he coughed up a mouthful of blood. Murong Xiong Tian had only used 60% of his strength in that punch.
In the third exchange, he had used 80% of his strength, wanting to blow Ling Chen's head apart. However, he had hit nothing but air, and Ling Chen's palm had turned into a blade, striking his temple. Even though he was a powerful Steel-type esper, he couldn't take such a blow. His consciousness had dissipated, and he had been repeatedly struck by Ling Chen, causing him to bleed from all his orifices and lose consciousness.
Murong Xiong Tian was publicly acknowledged as the strongest esper in Hua Xia. Ever since he had become famous, he had only lost to Xuanyuan Dao, and that was when Xuanyuan Dao was using his indestructible Azure Edge Sword. In his battle with Ling Chen, he was confident that no matter if it was in terms of strength or physique, he was many times stronger than Ling Chen! If he wanted to defeat Ling Chen, it would be incredibly easy. That night, he blamed it on his own carelessness and underestimation of his opponent, allowing him to defeat him in a single blow. This feeling of losing to someone weaker than him, and a junior at that, had continued to this day, becoming the greatest humiliation he had ever suffered.
As such, when he saw Ling Chen again today, the first thing he wanted to do was to defeat him and wash away his humiliation.
Hearing Murong Xiong Tian's words, Ling Chen's expression became strange. He looked at Murong Xiong Tian with a strange expression, and said with a smile that didn't seem like a smile, "Are you sure? Aren't you afraid that you'll lose even more miserably this time, and that the 'humiliation' you speak of will increase by a few times? "
Murong Xiong Tian laughed coldly again, and his muscles began to bulge, "Brat, for you to have such strength at such a young age is indeed shocking. However, you should know that there's always someone better than you out there. Did you really think that you defeated me with your own strength last time? "
Murong Xiong Tian raised his thick right arm as he calmly said, "You'll soon find out that in front of me, you won't even have the strength to struggle."
"So it's like that." Ling Chen nodded, and his expression became even more strange as he calmly said, "Last time, I attacked first, so it was natural for you to stop me. As such, we had no choice but to fight. As for this time … mm, it's princess Su 'Er's birthday banquet, so fighting and killing will ruin the mood. Moreover, there's no deep enmity between me and Chief Murong, so there's no need to fight to the death, right? If Chief Murong really wants to get back at me, how about this? Let's make it simple … I heard that Chief Murong's forte is physical attacks, so how about we compare strength? "
"Compare strength? You want to compare strength with me? "Murong Xiong Tian almost laughed out loud. Everyone else in the hall was also shocked. Within this circle, they naturally knew how terrifying Murong Xiong Tian was. His physical strength and toughness were even more monstrous, and it could be said that he had already surpassed the limits of a human. Even high-powered bullets would find it difficult to injure his body, and his strength could even pierce through a thick steel plate … this young man wanted to compare strength with Murong Xiong Tian?
On the stage, Su Yi Cheng's gaze never left Ling Chen. His eyes flashed as he muttered in a low voice, "You're looking to die!"
"That's right, we're comparing strength." Ling Chen stretched out his right arm … compared to Murong Xiong Tian's arm, Ling Chen's arm was incredibly thin and weak. Not only was it far from 'thick', but his skin was even fairer than a woman's, and he didn't seem to have any strength at all.
Stretching his arms, Ling Chen slowly said, "The method of the competition is very simple. I punch out, and senior Murong punches out. Fist against fist, whoever can't take it is the loser. This method is so simple and straightforward, so why bother fighting and killing?"
In an instant, countless people looked at Ling Chen as if he were an idiot.
"Haha, hahahaha …" This was the funniest joke Murong Xiong Tian had ever heard. His Steel-type esper ability was innate, and he had been incredibly strong since he was young. From what he could remember, no one had ever challenged him to a competition of strength before, because that was simply asking to be killed. Even Xuanyuan Dao would only attack in a roundabout manner when fighting him, and would never dare to face his strength head-on. Moreover, it wasn't as if he hadn't seen Ling Chen's strength that day … Ling Chen was indeed very strong, to the point that his body would burn with pain when he hit him. This kind of strength was quite shocking amongst humans, but in Murong Xiong Tian's eyes, it was nothing. If he really did face Ling Chen head-on, he was 100% confident that he would be able to smash Ling Chen's arm into mush.
That night, Ling Chen had displayed an extremely high level of agility, and if Ling Chen had used his advantage to deal with him, Murong Xiong Tian would have been forced to be cautious to avoid a repeat of that night. However, Ling Chen was' seeking death ', and was acting so casually, as if he didn't put him in his eyes at all. This caused Murong Xiong Tian to coldly laugh in disdain, but at the same time, he was infuriated. How could he refuse, "Very well. Your suggestion is simply too good, and I'm sure you'll remember it for the rest of your life! "
"Remember it for the rest of my life? I don't quite understand what you're saying. I'll probably forget about such a small matter after I go back to sleep, "Ling Chen said as he grinned.
This blatant disdain caused Murong Xiong Tian to become even more furious. He had originally planned to go easy on Ling Chen, but now, he no longer held back. He had already decided to use 100% of his strength in this competition of strength that Ling Chen had suggested.
Murong Xiong Tian raised his right arm, which was covered with clear veins, "So, are you ready?"
"Ready? Oh, of course I'm ready. Chief Murong, just attack as much as you want, I'll definitely receive your attacks. "
"I'm ready." Ling Chen had a lazy expression on his face, as if he was enjoying the sea breeze. His arms were crossed in front of his chest, and he didn't even put them down.
Murong Xiong Tian was infuriated as he roared, "You're courting death!!"
His roar was like a thunderclap, causing everyone's bodies to tremble. Murong Xiong Tian frowned as he raised his right arm. His already thick arm became even thicker, and the veins on his arm bulged as if they were going to explode at any moment … following this, Murong Xiong Tian's arm, which contained all of his strength, smashed towards Ling Chen's face.
Under Ling Chen's provocation and provocation, Murong Xiong Tian used all of his strength in this attack.
In that instant, everyone close to Murong Xiong Tian felt a gust of wind blow towards them. Everyone within 10 meters of him was forced back 3 steps, and the unparalleled pressure caused everyone in the hall to hold their breaths …
Some people forcefully closed their eyes, not daring to see the bloody scene that was about to unfold … everyone could tell that Murong Xiong Tian had used all of his strength in this attack, and the young man in front of him would most likely be smashed into meat paste. On the stage, Su 'Er covered her eyes with her hands as she screamed in fear …
Just as Murong Xiong Tian's fist was about half a metre away from his face, Ling Chen reacted, and punched out with his right arm. It was as fast as a bolt of lightning, and no one could see the trajectory of his arm … Ling Chen didn't dodge, nor did he rely on his agility to launch a surprise attack. Instead, he used his own fist to meet Murong Xiong Tian's fist, which was filled with all of his strength. In the next instant, Ling Chen's fist met Murong Xiong Tian's fist, which was at least 3 or 4 times larger than his own …
BOOM!!!!
The 2 fists collided, and the sound that rang out was like a bomb exploding … in that instant, a cold smile appeared on Ling Chen's face.
Competing in strength? Who was seeking death?!
