79 Saved By The Bell?

Lu Yun sat down breathless, his chest violently moving up and down.

Zhakypov was the strongest opponent he has encountered in addition to Tang Yan since he started boxing.

First-class speed, top-level footwork, rich experience, if not for Tang Yan's existence, he would definitely be the most favorable contender for this year's champion.

"Keep in mind, you are still leading in points, this is the last round, as long as you stick to it, you can win!" Qin Hailong loudly cheered for Lu Yun.

Zhakypov's strength was a lot stronger than he expected.

"Didn't you say that you want to fight me in the finals? You've got to at-least make it through the first round then, right?" At this moment, Tang Yan walked over to them and said.

Lu Yun heard Tang Yan's voice and turned to see Tang Yan's encouraging smile, and his body became energized.

"Ding! Ding!"

Just then, the bell on the side of the ring rang again, and the fourth round was to start.

There were only four rounds in an amateur boxing match. In the previous three rounds, the two boxers were evenly matched. This round would be the most decisive for both sides.

Zhakypov in the first three rounds was defensive, hit hard and used his footwork to set up his offense but at the beginning of this round he quickly launched a fierce attack.

Defense was not Lu Yun's strength. Sensing this as his weak point, he pressed him.

He went for him and battered him across the ring, Lu Yun showed little ability to block. He was

pinned on a left jab and was wide open for a right cross to the jaw. The few times that Zhakypov let loose his vicious hooks for the body, they landed, too.

In a somewhat panicky manner Lu Yun clinched to his opponent and held on until the referee intervened and warned him off it.

Releasing his hold Lu Yun's eyes fell on the disappointed Tang Yan under the stage and then he remembered what he said between the rounds, he suddenly felt a burst of energy from the soles of his feet.

He simply gave up defense and watched Zhakypov's uppercut coming towards him. He didn't reach out to block as before, but followed up with a punch of his own at Zhakypov.

Zhakypov saw this, took a hard step to the left and while avoiding Lu Yun's punch, his uppercut also fell apart.

After a distance was opened up, Zhakypov followed up with a sharp right hook.

Lu Yun threw a left hook, the posture he took on was one of if you want to hit me, then get ready for me to hit you with one as well.

He rushed forward purposely trying to forcefully trade blow for blow.

At close quarters they traded short arm rights and lefts to the body, Zhakypov was the first to back away and he couldn't help but swear.

Relying on this desperate style of play, Lu Yun forced Zhakypov back slightly.

However, Zhakypov, after all, had the advantage in experience. After slowly mastering Lu Yun's style of play, he used his footwork to hit Lu Yun then skillfully retreated out of range of Lu Yun's counter attack. He was just fighting for points now.

With the case of just one round left, getting effective hits was an efficient method.

Tang Yan saw that there was some helplessness here. Lu Yun had already reached his limit. It seemed that this Zhakypov was the opponent he would have to pay attention to next.

However, at this time, Lu Yun launched a last ditch offensive, he rushed forward.

Zhakypov seized the opportunity to hit him with punches continuously.One punch even hit Lu Yun in the head firmly, sending his head reeling back.

However, Lu Yun's offensive wasn't reduced. He took the blows and forcefully backed Zhakypov into a corner of the boxing ring.

With the ropes cutting into his back, Zhakypov rallied and steadied himself and smashed a right at Lu Yun.

Who still marched on and swung a left of his own to his jaw.

Which set him back on his heels and rattled his teeth like a maraca.

Lu Yun hooked three lefts to his head whilst he was steadying himself and when he slewed around and swung, Lu Yun ducked and crashed his jaw with a right hook

"Boom!"

Lu Yun's explosive punch directly slammed into Zhakypov.

His eyes became unfocused and he fell on the ropes.

"Ding! Ding!"

The bell on the side of the ring rang to end the fourth round. He slipped softly from the ropes to the canvas.

The audience at the scene, even the referees, looked over at it.

At the last moment, Zhakypov was knocked down?

The referee responded first and ran to check out Zhakypov's situation and found that he still had consciousness and immediately began the count.

"1"

"2"

Zhakypov struggled, even holding the ropes trying to stand up, he could win if he stood up.

"3"

"4"

His coach, his whole team screamed and yelled for him to get up.

"5"

"6"

However, Lu Yun's punch was really too lethal. He kept fumbling back down to the canvas.

"7"

"8"

"9"

As the referee called for the final count he still failed to stand up.

"10"

The scene burst into cheers.

This fight was really too exhilarating to watch, and this was just the first round of competition.

However, in this burst of cheers, Lu Yun squatted down and fell down on the canvass.

The cheers on the scene came to an abrupt halt.

Tang Yan and Qin Hailong jumped into the boxing ring at the same time.

Only to see Lu Yun lying there with a smirk on his face.

The two men sighed in relief and lifted him up from the canvass.

"I won... I will... make it to the finals like I promised, hahaha cough hahaha cough ...." Lu Yun leaned on Tang Yan's body and said with great effort, laughing intermittently.

"It was one hell of a win, you really are something." Tang Yan said laughing with him.

Lu Yun's face glowed with a big smile.

At this time, Qin Hailong took a look at Tang Yan. Like Tian Zhenzhe, he also found that Tang Yan's outstanding ability wasn't only in his personal skills but in having a reinforcing effect on his teammates.

Lu Yun could barely stand, whilst the referee announced him as the winner of the fight.

After which Zhakypov came up for a handshake and said: "Well fought, you deserve this victory."

Although at the last moment he was knocked down, Lu Yun's resilience and commitment made him feel respect towards him.

...

After getting some treatment for his injuries, Lu Yun came back his physical strength restored.

After he came back he asked Tang Yan: "Brother, how was your fight?"

At this moment, Qin Hailong humphed from the side.

Lu Yun looked over puzzled at his coach.

"He almost killed his opponent today." Qin Hailong said.

Listening to Qin Hailong's words, his mouth almost fell open.
