371: One-sided assault (two-in-one)

At this moment, most of the audience in the stands also focused their attention on Lin Yang’s match.

As the biggest dark horse of this Cosmic Competition year, and this being Lin Yang’s first battle against a seeded universe competitor from one of the three great Universe Countries, it naturally attracted immense attention.

Naturally, Zuoqiuyi’s words were heard by everyone.

This immediately caused dissatisfaction among many.

Although Zuoqiuyi was targeting Lin Yang, his words made others from different universes feel quite displeased.

“Complaint! I’m going to complain about this guy!”

“Too arrogant and conceited!”

“I now hope Lin Yang can blow up this Zuoqiuyi!”

“Yes, blow him up!”

“From now on, I’m betting everything on Lin Yang!”

“…”

Zuoqiuyi’s arrogant words provoked public outrage.

Following this, Lin Yang, who originally had low support, instantly surpassed Zuoqiuyi.

Many people held the mindset that they would rather lose money than let Zuoqiuyi earn their share of the rewards!

At the same time, the Universe Alliance Cosmic Competition officials also received an overwhelming number of complaints, making the staff instantly overwhelmed!

Within the arena, the battle between Lin Yang and Zuoqiuyi had also entered a heated stage.

“As expected of a seeded universe competitor from one of the three great Universe Countries, he is indeed more than one level stronger than others.”

Lin Yang muttered to himself.

In every previous round of the competition, he had swept through all other universe competitors, never encountering any resistance.

However, Zuoqiuyi’s strength was much greater than that of the previous universe competitors.

After several probes, both sides were evenly matched!

Lin Yang sighed, thinking this guy indeed had the capital to be arrogant.

Zuoqiuyi, however, frowned deeply!

Being evenly matched was not what he wanted!

What he wanted was an absolute crush!

Being evenly matched with Lin Yang made Zuoqiuyi feel insulted!

Immediately, he no longer held back.

“This is as far as you go!”

Zuoqiuyi shouted coldly, unleashing his full power!

He didn’t want to continue fighting Lin Yang.

The longer the fight, even if he won in the end, there would be no sense of accomplishment!

“Getting impatient so quickly?” Lin Yang’s eyes flickered, and he also went all out!

Zuoqiuyi didn’t want to continue the prolonged fight, and Lin Yang felt the same!

This guy was so arrogant; only by defeating him with an overwhelming force would he feel a deeper sense of shame!

Boom!

In the next instant, Lin Yang took the initiative to attack, charging forward with lightning speed, his fists like hammers, striking Zuoqiuyi’s body one after another!

Bang, bang, bang, bang!

Zuoqiuyi’s physical quality was extremely strong; the punches hitting his body produced muffled thuds.

“What a powerful physique!”

Lin Yang was secretly astonished.

Zuoqiuyi’s physical strength was definitely not something an ordinary Medium Super Gene Warrior could possess!

It had definitely undergone specialized training!

“Is this what a seeded universe competitor from a Universe Country is like? Even his physique is specially trained.”

Lin Yang was somewhat amazed at how comprehensive the Universe Country’s cultivation of its seeded universe competitors was.

One must know that the power of Gene Potion itself could enhance the physique while increasing strength.

But even such a physique couldn’t withstand his barrage of punches.

Only by further training the physique on the foundation of the Gene Potion’s enhancement could one forge a physique as strong as a bronze wall and iron fortress.

However, this kind of training was extremely difficult; a slight mistake could easily lead to irreparable injuries.

To train the physique without damaging the body, one also needed the assistance of incredibly precious and valuable medicines, somewhat similar to traditional Chinese medicine baths, and it had to be both topical and internal.

And every medicine that could be effective for a Medium Super Gene Warrior’s physique was astronomically expensive!

Training the physique was a matter of years, and the cost of training for one year was enough to bankrupt an ordinary Universe Country.

Even top-tier Universe Countries would find it difficult to bear this cost.

White Fatty Old Man had previously mentioned wanting him to train his physique, but ultimately gave up.

But this guy’s physique was forged to be so powerful, one can imagine how many resources were expended!

It probably could bankrupt dozens, even hundreds, of small and medium-sized Universe Countries!

And this was just what Zuoqiuyi alone consumed!

As for the two brothers, Gu Ming and Gu Ran, their strength was even greater than Zuoqiuyi’s, and the Shiyuan Universe Country must have invested even more resources in them!

Those two brothers must have also trained their physiques.

The cost required for just these three to train their physiques would make ordinary Universe Countries shrink back in awe!

“The three great Universe Countries are indeed terrifyingly strong!”

Lin Yang’s gaze shifted, experiencing for the first time a direct understanding of the three great Universe Countries’ power.

The resources to cultivate any single seeded universe competitor were enough to develop some small and medium-sized Universe Countries.

Not to mention they cultivated at least three seeded universe competitors every Cosmic Competition year!

Their foundation was simply unfathomable!

“No wonder even the strongest universe competitors from other Universe Countries completely lack the thought of competing with the seeded universe competitors from the three great Universe Countries; the gap is indeed quite large.”

Lin Yang mused.

The resources consumed by the three great Universe Countries in cultivating any single seeded universe competitor were unbearable for ordinary Universe Countries.

How could ordinary Universe Countries possibly compete with the three great Universe Countries?

It was no wonder White Fatty Old Man only said he could make it into the top ten, even after knowing he had fused with two extraordinary characteristic materials.

Extraordinary characteristics were indeed powerful, but that referred to extraordinary characteristic materials of higher quality, and the power of extraordinary characteristics after complete fusion!

With only 50% of the effect fused, facing this powerful physique, the extraordinary characteristics might struggle to even cause damage to the opponent!

Although Zuoqiuyi’s words just now were arrogant, the gap between ordinary Universe Country universe competitors and these seeded universe competitors was indeed an unbridgeable chasm.

This guy saying he was a peak was not wrong.

It was indeed very difficult for ordinary Universe Country universe competitors to surpass them.

“Hehehe, are you tickling me?”

Although Zuoqiuyi couldn’t avoid Lin Yang’s punches, he remained unmoving, letting Lin Yang’s fists strike his body.

Watching Lin Yang’s fists like shadows, Zuoqiuyi sneered continuously: “If this is all the strength you have, then you will be very miserable next!”

“Your physique is indeed surprisingly strong.”

Lin Yang’s gaze narrowed slightly, his tone calm: “If it were other universe competitors against you, they probably wouldn’t know what to do, but unfortunately, I am not among them!”

With that, Lin Yang no longer paid attention to Zuoqiuyi’s taunts, but instead settled his qi internally, closing his eyes slightly.

When he opened his eyes again, an even greater power erupted!

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

Lin Yang’s fists hammered violently on Zuoqiuyi’s body like war drums.

But this time, Zuoqiuyi could no longer remain as calm as before; his face suddenly changed drastically, and he hurriedly tried to dodge!

Because, this time, the power transmitted from Lin Yang’s fists, each time it struck his body, caused his bones to ache intensely!

“You… how can your strength be so powerful?”

Zuoqiuyi retreated frantically, trying to avoid Lin Yang’s attacks, and couldn’t believe Lin Yang’s strength would be so great!

However, Lin Yang’s speed was also extremely fast; every punch landed squarely on his body, making it impossible for him to avoid!

Fists rained down on Zuoqiuyi’s body.

“Pfft…”

After dozens, even hundreds of punches, Zuoqiuyi’s face flushed red, and he could no longer hold it in, a sweet taste in his throat as he spat out a mouthful of blood!

“You…”

He opened his mouth, wanting to say something.

But Lin Yang didn’t give him a chance to speak, landing punch after punch on his body, making him too pained to speak.

At this point, Zuoqiuyi completely became a punching bag, like a stake, only able to endure Lin Yang’s continuous beating… In the stands, everyone was already dumbfounded!

What did they see?

A seeded universe competitor as strong as those from the three great Universe Countries was actually being mercilessly beaten by Lin Yang!

And it was a one-sided beating!

Zuoqiuyi had no chance to fight back at all, only able to unilaterally endure Your Excellency Lin Yang’s beating!

This made everyone in the stands look as if they had seen a ghost!

Zuoqiuyi was a seeded universe competitor from one of the three great Universe Countries, and a relatively strong one at that!

But at this moment, he had become a stationary punching bag!

If they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, they would never have believed it was real!

This was too terrifying!

… “Yu Meng teacher? I’m not mistaken, am I? Lin Yang is… beating Zuoqiuyi?”

Xingguang and the others were all stunned!

Before the match, they had considered countless possibilities!

They had thought Lin Yang might lose, or perhaps he could fight Zuoqiuyi to a draw.

They even thought Lin Yang might, by some fluke, narrowly win at the very end!

But they had never, ever imagined the scene before them!

One-sidedly beating Zuoqiuyi!

And Zuoqiuyi was completely powerless to fight back!

This made them feel like they were dreaming!

No!

They wouldn’t even dare to dream like this!

Yu Meng was equally stunned!

Completely unable to believe what he was seeing!

When Lin Yang made his first move and revealed Zuoqiuyi’s physical strength, anyone with a bit of insight knew that with just this physical strength, Zuoqiuyi was already in an unbeatable position!

At that time, he had already been thinking about how to comfort Lin Yang after the match.

But the scene before him left Yu Meng bewildered.

Zuoqiuyi being unable to avoid attacks could still be understood.

After all, everyone has their weaknesses.

For example, he might not be as fast as Lin Yang, so he couldn’t dodge Lin Yang’s attacks.

But Lin Yang’s strength was so great that he could break the bones of Zuoqiuyi’s trained physique.

This was something Yu Meng couldn’t believe, no matter what!

Could this strength really belong to a Medium Super Gene Warrior?

Yu Meng was truly dumbfounded!

He was a bit foolish!

Until he heard Xingguang’s words, he subconsciously reached out and pinched Xingguang.

The latter immediately cried out in pain!

“Oh… you can feel pain? Then it shouldn’t be a dream…” Yu Meng muttered.

“… Yu Meng teacher! You pinched me, of course I feel pain!”

Xingguang grimaced in pain.

“Yu Meng teacher, you’re too vengeful, aren’t you? I pinched you last time, and now you pinch me!!”

“… Do you believe me if I say I’m not vengeful?” Yu Meng fell silent.

He really wasn’t vengeful!

It was truly just a subconscious reaction!

“…” Xingguang also fell silent.

Afterward, both stopped speaking, all staring intently at the arena.

At this moment, a thousand words could not express even a fraction of their inner shock!

… Five minutes later.

Bang!

As Lin Yang’s final punch landed on Zuoqiuyi’s face, Zuoqiuyi could no longer bear it, triggering the arena’s protection mechanism and being teleported out of the arena.

This round, Lin Yang wins!

In the stands, there was silence once again.

It wasn’t until Zuoqiuyi was teleported out of the arena that everyone seemed to come back to their senses, looking at each other, whether they knew the person next to them or not, with bewildered expressions!

Lin Yang actually won this round!

Not only did he win, but he won with an overwhelming advantage!

This made everyone truly unbelievable!

Boom!

The next instant.

After a strange, brief silence, a deafening cheer erupted from the stands.

“Holy crap, what did I just see? Zuoqiuyi, that arrogant guy, was utterly crushed by Your Excellency Lin Yang?”

“Damn it, what kind of strength does Your Excellency Lin Yang have? Can human strength really be this great? He actually beat Zuoqiuyi unconscious??”

“A seeded universe competitor from one of the three great Universe Countries being beaten unconscious – if I’m not mistaken, this should be the first time in all the Cosmic Competition years, right?”

“Damn it! This is too crazy, aren’t the people from the three great Universe Countries going to go insane now?”

“Oh my god, does this count as us witnessing history?”

“Nonsense, of course it does! This battle will definitely be remembered frantically!”

“A seeded universe competitor from one of the three great Universe Countries being beaten unconscious by a universe competitor from an ordinary Universe Country – if this doesn’t count as witnessing history, then what does?”

“Hahaha, awesome! So awesome! Zuoqiuyi, that guy, was so arrogant when he first entered, I didn’t expect the slap in the face to come so quickly. It was only a little over five minutes, and he was already knocked out!”

“Haha, I really want to see his expression when he wakes up later, it should be absolutely spectacular!”

“He’s going to be nailed to the pillar of shame; he’s the first in countless Cosmic Competition years to be knocked out, and by an ordinary Universe Country universe competitor at that, a seeded universe competitor from one of the three great Universe Countries eliminated from the arena while unconscious!”

“Serves him right, who told him to be so arrogant just now!”

“Exactly, if you don’t have the strength and still dare to be so arrogant, you deserve to be nailed to the pillar of shame!”

“Ahem, I’m a bleeding heart, I’ll sympathize with him. After the match, he’s definitely going to be severely reprimanded, or even abandoned, by the Shiyuan Universe Country’s higher-ups, and he’ll be endlessly ridiculed by others. Just thinking about that scene, I’m trembling with excitement!”

“Are you sure you’re sympathizing?”

“Abandoned, I don’t think so, after all, cultivating a seeded universe competitor is very costly. But he will definitely be the unprecedented first seeded universe competitor to be demoted; he probably won’t have a place in the Shiyuan Universe Country’s upper echelons anymore.”

“Who cares about him? He looked down on all of us the moment he opened his mouth. Now, it can only be said that karma is a b*tch!”

“I think we should still care about Your Excellency Lin Yang. He knocked Zuoqiuyi unconscious. Putting aside other factors, just for this point alone, I think the Shiyuan Universe Country will resent Your Excellency Lin Yang.”

“Yes, this caused the Shiyuan Universe Country to lose a lot of face. In the upcoming matches, if he is matched against Gu Ming and Gu Ran, for the sake of the Shiyuan Universe Country’s face, those two will definitely retaliate against Your Excellency Lin Yang like crazy. They might even beat Your Excellency Lin Yang unconscious before he is eliminated.”

“No, why do you all think they can definitely beat Your Excellency Lin Yang? Can’t Your Excellency Lin Yang also beat both of them unconscious??”

“Exactly, Your Excellency Lin Yang’s strength is so great, who wins or loses is still uncertain!”

“Ahem, brother, your idea is good, but Gu Ming and Gu Ran are not comparable to Zuoqiuyi. They are much stronger than Zuoqiuyi, not just a little bit. Although Your Excellency Lin Yang’s strength and speed are both very strong, I don’t think he is necessarily a match for the brothers Gu Ming and Gu Ran, after all, the strength they displayed in their recent battles felt even stronger!”

“Gu-worshippers, get out!”

“…”

In the stands, everyone voiced their opinions.

However, despite their differing opinions, they all clearly understood that Lin Yang’s upcoming matches would definitely be the most exciting in history!

Especially the matches against the brothers Gu Ming and Gu Ran!
