Afternoon, 5 PM.
The fourth round of the preliminaries began!
The scene was in an uproar.
Everyone was discussing Xu Taiping. After all, from the Martial Saint Ranking, Xu Taiping only had a combat strength of 48 thousand. Compared to the 70 thousand strong Nangong Azure Dragon, he was 20 thousand behind!
One was fourth level Heaven Stage, the other was seventh level Heaven Stage.
Even if one wasn't a cultivator, one would understand the disparity between them.
Tonight, there were also people who hoped that Xu Taiping would be able to create a miracle, but, the possibility of this was too low, almost nil, the difference in strength was a third level, moreover it was three levels, such a difference was not something that could be made up for by luck, not to mention when the Azure Dragon was in his prime, all kinds of physical stats were at their peak, this was different from a human at their peak, Xu Taiping might try to take advantage of a human in the future because of his age, but when facing a strong man like the Azure Dragon, it was absolutely impossible for him to take advantage of it.
It would be a one-sided ravaging. Almost everyone thought so. Of course, not everyone thought so. For example, sitting in the northwest corner of the fighting arena with a few people pulling a banner, Lin You Ran.
Lin You Ran had no classes today, so she had arranged for a few of Xu Tai Ping's loyal fans to meet her early in the morning. They had rushed to Shanghai from Jiang Yuan City, and had spent a huge sum of money to buy a ticket from Yellow Ox before arriving at the scene.
Even though there was a huge disparity in their strength, Lin You Ran and a few others still resolutely pulled up their banners.
The banner said a few simple words.
"Come on, Director Xu!" "Director Xu will definitely win!"
Xu Taiping was currently a famous figure with a lot of connections, but fighting between martial artists was not something that could be done by relying on the flow of traffic. In the eyes of the people around them, the actions of Lin You Ran and the others made them look like brainless fans.
However, Lin You Ran and the rest didn't care about the gazes of the people around them. As the manager of Xu Tai Ping's fan club, Lin You Ran's trust in Xu Tai Ping far exceeded that of the others, and it wasn't excessive to call him a brainless fan. Of course, a brainless fan like Lin You Ran wouldn't do anything to harm someone else for the sake of his idol.
"And Director Xu will definitely win?" "In a moment, all of you will personally witness your Director Xu being drenched in blood on the spot. Do you believe me?!" A contemptuous voice suddenly sounded from the side.
Lin You Ran looked to his side and saw a man sitting not far from him looking at him with disdain as he shouted.
"I believe our Director Xu will definitely win!" Lin You Ran said while clenching his fist.
"Hahaha, you must be a brainless fan, right? Don't you know, Xu Taiping's combat strength is forty-eight thousand? My dad's combat strength is over 70,000! "Xu Taiping and my dad are on completely different levels!" The man said proudly.
"Your father? You are the son of the Azure Dragon Nangong? " Lin You Ran asked in surprise.
"Of course!" The man said proudly, "My name is Nangong Zihan, and I am Nangong Azure Dragon. It is my father, you guys just wait and see my father perform. I'll tell you in advance, the moment we wait will be bloody."
"Bloody?" Lin You Ran was stunned for a moment and then said while clenching his fist, "Even if it's bloody, it's your father's blood!"
"Hur hur, then let's wait and see." Nangong Zi Han sneered as he looked at the stage.
At this point, Xu Taiping and the Nangong Azure Dragon had already walked up the stage.
The two of them stood facing each other, with a distance of around ten meters between them.
The noisy martial arena quietened down as the two people entered the arena.
At this moment, an excited shout sounded out.
"Come on, Director Xu! Director Xu will definitely win!"
This voice was very piercing. It came from the seating area and instantly spread throughout the entire martial arena.
Everyone turned to look in the direction of the voice, including Xu Taiping.
Lin You Ran clenched his fist and waved the banner in the air, showing what a fan was.
"What a joke, a man with 40,000 battle strength, how could he possibly fight a man with 70,000 battle strength?" I'm afraid you haven't woken up yet? " Nangong Zi Han shouted out loud.
When the people at the scene heard Nangong Zi Han's voice, they all laughed. They felt that what Nangong Zi Han said was right, if forty thousand people with combat strength wanted to defeat seventy thousand people, they would only not wake up.
This little girl was still young, and everything was fine, except that her brain wasn't working!
"Don't think too much into it, it's impossible to win with a battle strength of 40,000!" Someone said.
"Yeah, I like Xu Taiping too. But under such circumstances, he won't have any chance!" Another person added.
The mocking words and smiles of those around him caused Lin You Ran's face to redden in excitement as she forcefully waved the banner, shouting loudly, "Come on, Director Xu! You'll definitely win! Come on, Director Xu will definitely win!"
All of the fans of Xu Taiping, who was standing beside Lin You Ran, also started to shout loudly. Amidst the laughter and ridicule, the shouts of these fans were so insignificant but they were so firm.
At this moment, Lin You Ran suddenly stopped shouting. She had just seen Xu Tai Ping raise his hand towards her on the martial stage!
Xu Taiping raised his hand high in the air, and his eyes locked onto Lin You Ran. Under everyone's gaze, he suddenly clenched his five fingers!
A sandbag sized fist appeared before everyone.
Xu Taiping did not say a word. Instead, he used his powerful fist to support Lin You Ran and respond to everyone's mockery!
"No wonder so many people like to mix in with the society. The higher the status, the more popular it is." The green dragon looked at Xu Taiping and said.
"I don't think so. I feel that the reason why I am popular might be because I'm handsome and powerful." Xu Taiping said with a smile.
"Really?" Then, do you dare to swear that no matter what, you won't admit defeat? " The Nangong Azure Dragon asked.
"I dare, why wouldn't I dare? I, Xu Taiping, swear that no matter what, I will not admit defeat! " Xu Taiping said.
"Haha, good, very good. This way, we can have a good spar later!" The Nangong Azure Dragon said with a malevolent expression.
"Then you dare to swear that no matter what, you won't admit defeat?" Xu Taiping asked.
"Why would I not dare? I swear, no matter what happens in a moment, I will not admit defeat. Because, I will not lose!" The Nangong Azure Dragon said proudly.
"That's more like it. If you admit defeat now, that would be so boring!" Xu Taiping said with a smile.
"Xu Taiping, do you really think that hiding your true strength can hide it from me?" The Nangong Azure Dragon said in a teasing manner.
"Oh? You already know about it? " Xu Taiping asked in surprise.
"With your temperament, it's impossible for you to not have any backup plans, to the extent where I suspect that your fighting strength already exceeds sixty thousand, and might have already reached Heaven Stage level 6 or higher. But do you think that you'll have a chance under my hand if you reach Heaven Stage level 6? I can responsibly tell you that you have no chance at all! Under my fist, you... "There is only one way, and that is to be beaten into a pulp by me!" The Azure Dragon Nangong raised his fist and said.
"I never thought that my trump card would be seen through by you!" Xu Taiping shook his head angrily, "Since that's the case, then I won't hold back any longer."
"Can the two of you start now?" the referee asked from the side.
"It's done!" The Nangong Azure Dragon said.
"Sure!" Xu Taiping nodded.
"Since that's the case, then I will announce the start of the world's strongest martial arts gathering, the China Preliminaries, and the fourth match!"
the referee shouted.
Following the command given by the referee, a muffled sound was emitted from the location of the Nangong Imperial Clan's Azure Dragon.
In everyone's line of sight, the Nangong Azure Dragon had disappeared from where he was standing. On the spot where he was standing earlier, cracks had appeared on the floor tiles!
This was the first time the floor tiles had been damaged since the start of the selection. It could be seen how terrifying the speed and strength required to make a sudden move!
A distance of a dozen meters passed in the blink of an eye.
The Azure Dragon Nangong leaned forward and turned into a ray of light as he charged towards Xu Taiping.
"I want to let you experience the terror of being dominated!"
"I want to let you know that I, Nangong Azure Dragon, am the strongest in this competition!"
"I want you to understand that you won't be so lucky forever!"
"I want to show you what is called Iron Fist!"
In the blink of an eye, the Azure Dragon Nangong had already arrived in front of Xu Taiping, but Xu Taiping did not seem to have recovered from the sudden attack.
The Azure Dragon Nangong's fist punched towards Xu Taiping's face.
This heavy punch was extremely powerful and fast. It was so fast that it had already created sonic booms.
At this moment, Xu Taiping, who was standing still, suddenly took a step back with his right foot.
As he took that step back, Xu Taiping's body also moved back about half a meter.
Swoosh!
The heavy punch from the Azure Dragon Nangong flew past Xu Taiping's nose.
The terrifying power of the punch even tore the skin on Xu Taiping's nose!
If this punch hit, it would be no less than being hit in the face by a cannonball.
If it was an ordinary person, they would probably be directly shattered by this fist!
However, this punch was dodged by Xu Taiping, and in the instant Xu Taiping dodged it, he calmly raised his hand and struck towards the green dragon's face.
This punch seemed ordinary, but it was as swift as a bolt of lightning.
Bang!
The face of the Azure Dragon Nangong was directly hit by this fist. From the outside, it looked like the Azure Dragon Nangong had deliberately punched Xu Taiping's fist.
Xu Taiping's fist stopped on the face of the Azure Dragon Nangong for around 0.01 seconds.
In the next moment, a tremendous force exploded!
The Nangong Azure Dragon came like a gale and left like a bolt of lightning. In the blink of an eye, it had already flown out a dozen meters!
Old Tie, set a small goal first.
