Chapter 3730 - 3730 Only Met Once
3730 Only Met Once
With his strength, he estimated that no one on that platform would be his opponent! His eyes passed over the four City Lords involuntarily. Which one did he want to challenge?
The two figures on the platform fought fiercely, the sharp airflow roared out. Although there was no killing intent in any of the moves, neither of them wanted to miss out on a once every five year opportunity, so they used all their special skills without any reservation in this fight.
Everyone else who was waiting to come onto the platform were watching the two of them fight, because the winner would most likely be their opponent, so naturally they wouldn’t miss the opportunity to observe their opponent.
However, after the two people exchanged more than a dozen moves, one of them was punched away by the other and spurted out a mouthful of blood then rolled off the platform.
“Fourth Master!”
“Fourth Brother!”
The clansmen of the middle-aged man who had rolled off the platform exclaimed and stepped forward quickly to help him up: “Fourth Brother, how are you? Are you fine?”
The middle-aged man wiped the blood from his face and shook his head at the people around him, then he looked at the middle-aged man on the platform and cupped his hands and bowed, saying: “Cheng Jiaquan is indeed infamous, I accept defeat.”
“Thank you for letting me win.” On the platform, the middle-aged man cupped his hands and bowed in return. After taking a look at the people below the platform, he walked to the side and sat down.
As soon as a winner had been determined between the two of them, the second pair of contestants stepped out onto the platform. After they bowed to each other, their ghostly figures flashed out towards each other in an instant.
Everyone watched the fight and discussed it at the same time: “The winner is the Patriarch of the Cheng family clan. The Cheng family clan’s boxing technique is famous far and wide. I also heard that Patriarch Cheng had developed a new technique, the Golden Fist Boxing Technique. The strength is as strong as a mountain and its internal strength is extremely strong.”
“Patriarch Cheng is a big favourite to win. All bets are on him, he is the favourite to enter the semi-finals.”
“The others are not weak either. Look at that one, Jin Yifeng is the leader of the First Mercenary Group. And that one over there, even though he is a casual cultivator, he is already known as the fast swordsman, the Shadowless Sword Master. And that one… every one of them are also one of the best around.
“That’s for sure. Our Celestial City is one of the top cities, if he is not a top-ranking figure, how can he be one of the four City Lords?”
Whilst everyone was talking, another winner was determined on the platform and another group of contestants stepped forward to continue.
Up in the attic, Feng Jiu glanced at the audience then closed her eyes. She planned to take a break then watch again later. She already knew which one of those people would stand out in the end. Although those people were strong, if they wanted to be able to compete for the position of City Lord, in addition to strength, they also needed luck.
Why would she say that? Because, out of the eight contestants, there would be four remaining who would have to face the current City Lord to have a chance to win. But for anyone who ended up facing Qi Kang would just be a waste of their time.
Leng Hua and the others watched from the attic. The competition moved from one pair to the next, until it was finally Qi Kang’s turn to come onto the platform. His opponent was a mercenary captain.
The mercenary captain didn’t underestimate Qi Kang who was younger than him. After sizing him up, he raised his hands and saluted: “Please!”
Qi Kang saluted back, and in the next moment, the two figures moved at the same time. Fist and palms struck each other and spirit energy surged out.
“Yunhe, do you know the man named Qi Kang?” One of the Elders on the side asked after taking a sip of tea.
Duan Yunhe’s eyes flashed slightly and he replied: “I met only met him once, and I only found out his name is Qi Kang today.”
