Chapter 241 - Start of the Competition
"Alright, our dear sisters, it's time for the competition. As for today, it's the semifinals, and the two sides are the Lotus Gang and the Emei's pie, and it's also the third to last match between the Martial Arts Congress. The team that won today is qualified to advance to the finals, and compete for the championship!"
The female host's excited and joyous announcement came out from the stage, and following his announcement, the female audience also shouted excitedly. Waves of joyous cheers spread throughout the sports center like a wave of heat. Women were more emotional than men. As spectators, they were even more emotional than men, so the voices were even louder.
"It's starting, haha." I heard Little White giggling beside me and turned my head to see Little White happily eating a bucket of popcorn.
"Silly girl, where did this popcorn come from?" I exclaimed when I saw the big bucket of popcorn in Whitey's hands.
"Oh, there's a stall selling this stuff next to the lounge. Master, do you want to eat it? " Little White kindly handed me the popcorn.
"Sure, give it to me!"
"Me too!"
"Me too!"
Seeing Whitey's popcorn, the perverted girl, Little Princess, and I rushed forward and snatched all of it away. When Whitey took back the popcorn bucket and looked at it, it was dumbfounded because it found out that the bucket that was originally full of popcorn was now empty. Meeting a group of gluttonous kings like us, it can be considered that this Silly girl is in for a ride of misfortune.
"Now, let's invite our two teams to participate!"
The clear female voice sounded, accompanied by waves of screams and cheers. The participants from Lotus Gang and Emei's pie, who had been sitting in the VIP seats all this time, finally began to move. After resting for more than two hours, they should have fully recovered.
In the VIP seats of Emei's pie, ten young female competitors, who had changed into pink Daoist robes, walked up to the stage in an orderly manner.
On the other side, the Lotus Gang participants finally walked towards the stage. The one leading them, was Li Mulan!
"We're finally going on stage. This time, we can take a look at what's so special about this freak." The perverted girl gritted her teeth. He clenched his fist and said.
"Yes."
Li Mulan's debut was extremely high-profile. She continuously waved her hands, as if the entire sports center had become his stage.
"What an arrogant fellow." I really want to spar with her. Looking at Li Mulan who was walking up the stage, the perverted girl seemed to have a fighting intent as she rubbed her fists on the seat.
"Master, what's on your mind all day?" I looked at the wretched girl in disdain before continuing to watch the scene on the stage.
At this time, the participants from Lotus Gang and Emei's pie walked up the stage from the two sides of the stage.
On both sides, there were ten people. The ten people lined up in a long line. In every match, the team on one side would send a contestant onstage, until the contestant fell.
Of course, the order of the contestants was decided upon when they entered the arena. It couldn't be changed at will after the match began.
I saw that Li Mulan was placed tenth in Lotus Gang's contestant list, not as the vanguard. Obviously, Lotus Gang wanted to use Li Mulan to turn the tide.
In other words, if the nine Lotus Gang participants in front of Li Mulan could successfully defeat the ten Emei's pie participants, Li Mulan would not need to make a move.
And if all nine of Li Mulan's Lotus Gang's disciples were to be defeated, then Li Mulan would have no choice but to step up the stage as the final weapon.
The two rows of participants lined up on both sides of the stage. Although Li Mulan was the focus of the competition this time, she did not seem to be the leader of the team, as the leader of the team was a tall and slender woman with especially long arms. Her looks were ordinary, and the one leading the pack was a lady with a slim waist.
But in the world of martial arts, height does not always mean absolute superiority.
"Okay, we saw that both teams were on stage. Then in this semifinals, which team will win?"
"Emei's pie has sent out their captain, Guo Jianying. In the previous competition, she went on stage and defeated three Mao Shan members. As for the representative of the Lotus Gang, she is also a participant with two years of experience, she is proficient in the Lotus Gang's consummate technique, [Lotus Opening Fist]. "
"Everyone knows that Eyebrow's technique is somewhere between Shaolin Yanggang and Wu Dang's feminine, yet also strong. As for the Lotus Gang, he focused on surprise, preparing both offense and defense, releasing seven parts of her strength, and keeping three parts for defense. Then, what kind of exciting match will the Emei's pie and the Lotus Gang present to us? Let me wait and see. "
The female host used her passionate speed to stir up the atmosphere, and as the representatives of Lotus Gang and Emei's pie appeared, the audience cheered even more. Both sides had their respective players supporting them, so at this moment, the fans were especially divided.
I really didn't expect women to be so obsessed with kung fu. Listening to the deafening roars coming from above me, I was somewhat puzzled.
"It's about to begin." As I ate the popcorn that Little White had snatched from me, I kept my eyes glued to the two sides of the ring. This match was very important to both the Lotus Gang and herself.
"Master, what do we have to do to win this round?" Was one of the two people in the competition unable to move after falling down? " I asked the wretched girl behind me.
"Oh, there are a total of three ways to determine the victor of Martial Arts Congress's competition. One is to lose if you can't get up after ten seconds. The second was to voluntarily surrender and admit defeat. The third contestant would be the loser once he or she stepped out of the arena. Disciple, look, isn't there a white line on the stage? If someone makes that white line, they will lose. " The lecherous girl patiently explained it to me, while I nodded my head repeatedly.
"What if there are casualties?" I asked.
"Inevitably there will be casualties. Martial Arts Congress's rules stated that one could not injure someone in the competition, if a participant accidentally injured someone, then the participant would lose, and if the participant maliciously injured someone, then the participant's sect would lose. If someone died in the match, then regardless of whether it was an accident or not, the party that caused the casualties would lose. So on the surface, the rules of the competition are quite fair. "
"It's indeed quite strict." I nodded, then turned my attention back to the ring.
The representatives of the Lotus Gang, Li Hongxia and had already taken their seats, the two of them stood at the edge of the stage and assumed their positions, looking at each other, and preparing to begin.
And on the big screen of the competition stage, the two competitors' expressions were close up.
A referee holding a white flag walked to the center of the ring. She drew the flag, indicating that the match had begun.
"READY? START! The first match between Lotus Gang and Emei's pie has officially begun! "
The host's melodious voice rang out and began the prelude to the competition.
Following the start of the match, Lotus Gang's team leader Li Hongxia and Eyebrow's team leader Guo Jianying faced off against each other. On the big screen, I could clearly see the two of them being nervous and solemn.
The tensed up atmosphere lasted for around ten seconds. In the end, it was the Emei's pie side who made the first move, with a loud battle cry, Guo Jianying waved her palm and quickly approached Li Hongxia.
"It's the Eyebrow's Palm Art, Golden Crown and Ethereal Palm. "This palm technique is very viscous. When it hits a person, it can also catch them at the same time." The perverted girl's eyesight was extraordinary, and she saw through Guo Jianying's palm technique with a single glance.
I saw Guo Jianying's imposing aura shoot out like a rainbow as she charged towards Li Hongxia. Although Guo Jianying was not as tall as him, in terms of aura, the two were on par.
As Guo Jianying got closer, Li Hongxia also took a stance. Her two palms intersected with her front legs, exerting power with her feet, and then she charged towards Guo Jianying.
Just from the looks of the scene, the Martial Arts Congress's fighting style was similar to the United States' professional boxing style in the 21st century. However, compared to boxing, the Martial Arts Congress's techniques and styles were more numerous.
The two female competitors finally began to fight. Their mouths began to emit sounds of "bam, bam" sounds. Their faces were solemn and solemn. As their palms collided against each other, their movements were extremely swift and sharp.
I'm not very professional, so I don't really understand their methods, but I can see that because of the advantage in height, the Emei's pie's side has been completely suppressed.
Emei's pie's side used both hands and feet to continuously kick Li Hongxia, but Lotus Gang's Li Hongxia's reaction was very fast. She retreated a few steps and dodged Guo Jianying's attack, and one by one she blocked Guo Jianying's palm.
As soon as they started, it seemed as if they didn't have any guards left.
After being suppressed, Guo Jianying immediately changed to using a fist technique to attack Li Hongxia. Although Guo Jianying was from the Emei's pie, but the inside of the Martial Alliance could share their moves, thus Guo Jianying could also use the Wing Chun Fist, with Guo Jianying's continuous punches, her fists were like a snake head that was frantically attacking, its speed was extremely fast, it was closing in on Li Hongxia.
On the big screen, I saw that Li Hongxia's expression was still very calm. Although she was forced to retreat by Guo Jianying, but she was still looking very calm, as if she was looking for an opening and waiting for an opportunity to make her move.
Just as Li Hongxia was forced to the boundary of the stage, Li Hongxia finally moved. With a sudden jump, she sent a string of flying kicks towards her arms, causing Guo Jianying to retreat continuously.
Suddenly, Li Hongxia's situation reversed.
It could be said that none of them held an absolute advantage in this exchange. Both sides were in a deadlock, so they both suffered a bit. In the next few minutes, Guo Jianying and Li Hongxia respectively left wounds on each other's bodies. However, neither of them were completely suppressed. On the other hand, their stamina was constantly being depleted.
"Ah, I've been caught!"
Until the very end, when her proposal relied on Li Hongxia's charge, in that instant when she almost grabbed onto Guo Jianying's arm, she actually imprisoned her on the ground!
"Nineteen eighty-one!" Time's up, Guo Jianying wins! Emei's pie gets one point! "
The judge on the side counted the time, and when Li Hongxia was pressed onto the ground for more than 10 seconds, the judge announced the winner.
"F * * k, it's actually Eyebrow who won this match. This is such a relief!" Seeing that the Eyebrow had scored a point, the people of Gao Family, including the perverted girl, burst into cheers. Now, in the eyes of the people of Gao Family, not being able to enter the finals was their greatest victory.
However, despite the celebration, Qing Han still maintained her calm.
"Emei's pie won one match, but this cannot determine the final victory of this match. Even if there is only one person left, it is possible for Lotus Gang to turn the tide. "
After hearing Qing Han's words, my face darkened.
Indeed, as long as one person in the Lotus Gang was present, they would have the guarantee of victory.
That person was the Li Mulan who could fight one against ten.
