Chapter 214: Chapter 143 Eh, I hit Xue Jing? For real... Sorry, I'm in a hurry (4K)_3

"Come on!"

"Gu Hongding, come on!"

"Come on, bald big brother!"

The cheers had bewildered Gu Hongding.

It was that phrase 'bald big brother' that sounded a bit harsh...

After a moment of thought, he understood, and a bitter smile appeared under his helmet-mask.

'There's only one reason fans cheer for their idol's opponent...'

'Pity cheers thinking I'm bound to lose, huh...'

"Damn it, they really look down on me."

Gu Hongding curled his lips.

His gaze became serious as he pointed his three-meter-long saber at Xue Jing.

It might seem like cheating, but his equipment was specifically designed to counter the opponent.

That sort of distant Saber Qi looked imposing, but its power was definitely not as good as a direct slash of the blade.

And a real blade couldn't break through the defense of his armor shell.

The martial art he practiced, 'Qitun Wushuang School,' was developed for the battlefield.

In a battlefield, which aspect of combat ability is most important?

Endurance!

The strongest point of Qitun Wushuang was its endurance.

He could fight in his heavy armor for hours without growing tired!

'I'll wear you down to death.'

Gu Hongding thought as he looked at Xue Jing.

As the match started, the cheers of the audience gradually quieted down, and they began to focus on the match itself.

Xue Jing observed Gu Hongding for a while, then shook his head.

He channeled his Power into the Crouching Rabbit Sword, driving it, sheath and all, into the ground of the arena and let it stand there before releasing his grip.

He had entered the arena at 16:57.

Now, it was about 59 minutes past.

Xue Jing looked at the prepared Gu Hongding across from him, thought for a moment, and then spoke:

"Sorry, I'm in a rush."

Gu Hongding hadn't yet reacted when he saw Xue Jing's demeanor change completely.

"Chan—"

The Dragon's Chant echoed through the entire venue.

White wave-like Dragon Qi surged from Xue Jing's shoulders, enveloping him.

An intensely fierce and dominating aura burst forth from his entire body.

His eyes turned into dark golden vertical pupils, and with just a light glance, Gu Hongding felt his body freeze.

At that moment, in Gu Hongding's eyes, standing before him was no longer just another man.

It was — a Dragon.

A seclusive, divine-like Dragon that looked down at him like a mere ant — a True Dragon.

All the spectators also held their breath, staring at the figure surrounded by Dragon Qi, heavy as the sea.

In Xue Jing's eyes, Gu Hongding's reflection appeared.

Most of his 'lines' and 'points' were detailed and apparent.

In an instant, almost unnoticed by everyone else, he had vanished from his original spot.

The next moment, the True Dragon's claw pinned Gu Hongding to the ground.

"Chan—"

Eye-Penetrating Flow · Shaking Star Fire.

Amidst the Dragon's Chant, Xue Jing's fist struck the fallen Gu Hongding's chest.

As blood boiled fiercely, his Power transformed into Ten Thousand Sparkling Starfires, moving through the weak points, bypassing the armor, and flooding into Gu Hongding's body.

"Boom——!!"

After a loud explosion, Gu Hongding twitched violently, and Xue Jing's fist drove him nearly two meters deep into the ground of the arena, spreading violent circular shockwaves that made it hard for nearby spectators to keep their eyes open.

"Bang!!"

Centered on Gu Hongding, a huge circle of cracks spread across the arena, swiftly enveloping the entire structure.

"Crack-crack"

As the arena collapsed, the entire venue shook slightly.

Everyone stared dumbfounded at the only figure still standing amidst the rising dust.

This...

Xue Jing first confirmed that the embedded Gu Hongding couldn't stand up anymore, then pulled out his phone to check the time.

[16:59]

The next second — [17:00]

"Done, just in time."

Xue Jing nodded, satisfied.
