The last time I mentioned: Due to the abstention of Wan Tianba, Yan Kuo directly advanced to the finals of the Martial Arts Competition, while the final spot was between Jiang Feng and Xu Yuan.
"Look at this move of mine, Broken Jade Hammer!" Jiang Feng stepped off the stage and flew up, thrusting his spear towards Xu Yuan's throat. Knowing the power of Jiang Feng's Strangle Spear, Xu Yuan quickly dodged to the side to avoid the tip of the spear. The copper hammer in his left hand deflected the silver spear, while the copper hammer in his right hand struck towards Jiang Feng's chest. Jiang Feng used the spinning force of the spear to block the spear shaft and land on the ground. Xu Yuan rotated the hammer in his hands and swung it. Jiang Feng thought to himself: "He is indeed powerful. I must think of a way." While he was thinking, his opponent struck the top plate with his hammer and the bottom plate with his other hammer. Jiang Feng's spear tried to block it, but was knocked back three steps, the pain in his hands increased yet again, and his face revealed a bit of pain.
Xu Yuan mocked, "So you are so weak?" I have overestimated your strength. Let's see how I can knock you out of the arena in ten moves. " After saying that, he turned around and continued to swing his hammers. Jiang Feng waited for his hammer to hit and quickly dodged it. Xu Yuan did not manage to escape and a hole was created in the arena with his hammer. Jiang Feng took the opportunity to force out a move called "Shadowless Spear". Xu Yuan hastily retracted his left hand and at the same time, he used his right copper hammer to protect his body, preventing himself from being injured by the sharp spear. Only at this moment did Xu Yuan realize that Jiang Feng had increased the speed of his spear. Under the wind like shadow of his spear, his copper hammer seemed somewhat cumbersome and inflexible.
Jiang Feng circled around Xu Yuan once. Although he was unable to succeed, he had already taken the initiative and gained the upper hand. Jiang Feng shouted, "How is it? Ten moves have already been completed." Even though Xu Yuan was angry, at this moment, Jiang Feng's silver spear had produced six spear shadows. This move was known as the "Two Illusionary Three Spear". It was quite difficult to create so many afterimages within a short period of time. Xu Yuan spread his arms wide, trying his best to deflect the hammers. Suddenly, his left chest was injured by the spear point, and his right shoulder was almost pierced. Jiang Feng was also surprised. With this ultimate skill, Xu Yuan was actually able to block four shots and dodge one. Jiang Feng inserted the spearhead into the wooden board of the arena and kicked out with the tenacious strength of the spear shaft. Xu Yuan was caught off guard and was hit in the chest. He was sent flying and the two hammers fell beside him.
Jiang Feng retrieved the silver spear. He didn't seem to have the intention of taking the next attack. He knew that with just that one strike, he wouldn't be able to defeat his opponent. Xu Yuan picked up the pair of hammers and slowly stood up. Dark red blood flowed from the corner of his mouth and he looked extremely excited. Jiang Feng wiped the sweat off his forehead and said, "Your strength shouldn't be limited to this, how about we all go all out and fight?" Xu Yuan continued to turn the hammer. He smiled and said, "Good, that's exactly what I want. Only this kind of martial arts competition will be interesting." Jiang Feng welcomed the attack with his spear and Xu Yuan swung his hammer.
There was a clap of thunder and the sky was covered by a black cloud. Du Shaoyang looked up at the sky and knew that heavy rain was approaching. He sighed, "Seems like the heavens are not happy today!" Daoist Great Void ordered, "Little girl, Shaoyang, let's go to the inn over there to temporarily avoid the rain." Li Qing Shuang looked at Du Shaoyang and nodded. The three of them entered an inn not far away. Wang Yi Xin also hurriedly found a place to hide from the rain. Seeing the weather turn, the people outside were no longer in the mood to watch the competition, and all left. The host also walked to the side of the stage. Yan Kuo looked at the two people on the stage and coldly snorted, "They are both young and hot-tempered kids, especially that Xu Yuan."
Crack!" Another deafening sound of thunder rang out and in an instant, a torrential rain poured down. The people on the road all hurried to find a place to shelter from the rain, while a girl dressed in yellow, holding up a pink oil-paper umbrella, was rushing towards the venue. The man that protected him was still behind her. The girl said softly, "I said that I would come to watch your martial arts competition." "As she walked forward, her face revealed both joy and worry.
As the rain continued to fall, the host could only loudly shout, "Two contestants, do you need to delay the match? Wait until the torrential rain stopped before we continue!" The two people on the stage continued to exchange moves, and said in unison, "No need!" Seeing the two of them so persistent, the host didn't say anything more. Jiang Feng's Frost Iron Spear shone exceptionally bright after being drenched by the rain. Xu Yuan did not tie his hair into a bun, as his messy hair had already somewhat covered his line of sight. Jiang Feng shook off the rainwater as his spear seemed to pass through layers of barriers, thrusting out. Xu Yuan roared as he exerted force with his right hand to suppress the silver spear on the ground. The copper hammer in his left hand struck towards Jiang Feng's left shoulder. Jiang Feng quickly crouched to the side and dodged the attack. Unexpectedly, Xu Yuan's left foot came flying over. Jiang Feng could not avoid the silver spear and threw out a right fist. Xu Yuan's left foot changed direction and kicked the right side of his chest. Jiang Feng fell backwards onto the ground and withdrew his silver spear. Xu Yuan rolled forward as his Lifesteal Hammer was swung towards Jiang Feng. Jiang Feng knelt on the ground with his left knee, tilted his head and used all his strength to block the blow with his spear. Jiang Feng sent the bronze hammer away, tiptoed on his right foot, and hit the ground with his left palm. He then spun around and finally regained his balance.
At this moment, Jiang Feng's white clothes were heavily blotched, and there were obvious footprints on the right side of his chest. Xu Yuan pushed aside his messy hair. The rain had already seeped into his eyes, so he quickly wiped it away. Jiang Feng looked at the few holes Xu Yuan had made on the stage and the footprints on his body. Anger burned in his heart. Suddenly, Jiang Feng leaped several meters into the air, his feet facing the sky, his head facing the ground, and a spear shot down obliquely from above. Xu Yuan was shocked and quickly wiped away the rain in front of him as he took two small steps back. Jiang Feng roared as the spearhead sunk into the wooden board. He used all of his strength to push down the spear shaft. The spearhead suddenly jabbed forward and a series of wooden boards were instantly ripped up and smashed towards Xu Yuan like a long dragon. Xu Yuan hurriedly retreated, causing the wooden board in front of him to fly up. At this moment, several wooden boards had been placed in front of him. Xu Yuan swung the hammers in his hands wildly. In such a short period of time, he had knocked down all the wooden planks. Jiang Feng, who was in front of him, was nowhere to be seen. Xu Yuan had a bad feeling. There was a big hole in the center of the arena. He raised his head and saw that Jiang Feng's spear had already hit his back. He could not stand steadily and flew forward, falling into the big hole. Jiang Feng let out a breath of relief. Who would have thought that Xu Yuan would use his dual hammers and strike the ground to catch the rebound force. Then, he used his movement technique to fly up onto the stage and stood in front of Jiang Feng. Jiang Feng panted heavily as he felt the coldness of the rain. Xu Yuan was squatting on the ground with his right hand on the support, as if that strike had consumed a lot of his energy.
Jiang Feng no longer worried. He used the reins to move forward. Xu Yuan quickly blocked the spearhead. Flipping his body to the side, Jiang Feng let the torrential rain wash over his body as he once again used the same move horizontally. Jiang Feng pulled back the silver spear and stabbed Xu Yuan's right hand. Unexpectedly, Xu Yuan was able to use it twice, so he threw out the copper hammer to block Jiang Feng's attack. The copper hammer in his left hand blocked the attack with all his might. But now that he was going to retreat, his body was unable to balance and most of the wooden boards still hit him. Luckily, Xu Yuan bumped into the reins behind him and his strength was reduced. He did not fall off the stage but fell to the ground and did not get up. Jiang Feng pressed his palms against the ground. His hands, which were holding the silver spear, were aching. It seemed that the fight just now had consumed too much of his physical strength. Xu Yuan's blood was washed clean by the torrential rain. The arena was in a complete mess. Many wooden planks had been destroyed by the two of them, and there were even many broken pieces of wood that had fallen to the ground beside Xu Yuan. Jiang Feng tried his best to stand up and hold his spear horizontally. Although he looked battered and exhausted, there was a bit of joy on his face. The torrential rain seemed to wash his face, quelling the anger in his heart. Jiang Feng heaved a sigh of relief as he looked at Xu Yuan, who had fallen to the ground. He felt exhausted, but he continued to stare at Xu Yuan. Very quickly, the host began to shout out the final countdown: "Ten, nine, eight, seven... Three, two. " Just when Jiang Feng was prepared to welcome his victory, Xu Yuan actually stood up once again, wiping his face and coughing a few times.
Another bolt of lightning flashed across the sky. Li Qingshuang seemed to be afraid as she tightly grabbed onto Du Shaoyang's sleeve. He lightly patted Li Qingshuang's shoulder. At this time, the yellow clothed young lady who had rushed through the rain had finally arrived. As she saw Jiang Feng's expression, the worry on her face deepened. The man behind her was also shocked by this scene. At some point in time, a person wearing a night robe and a mask had quietly appeared on the rooftop not far from the arena. Everyone's attention was attracted by the two people on the arena and no one paid any attention to him.
There was only a bronze hammer left in Xu Yuan's hand. He clenched his fist and smiled at Jiang Feng, "What's wrong? You don't have any stamina left? " Jiang Feng was shocked at first, but soon recovered his calm expression. He held the silver spear horizontally in front of him, bowed his head, and slowly said, "Let's have the last round!" Xu Yuan leaned over the copper hammer, pushed his messy hair behind his ears and said, "I'm really happy today. It's been a long time since I've met such a powerful person, but I definitely won't lose to him!"
What about later?
And then we'll see how it breaks down in the next round.
