141: Chapter 141 A Fierce Advancement, What Are the Chances of Victory?

Boom!!!!

Mu Qinghuang didn't say a word. She erupted with a terrifyingly powerful force and charged directly at Tanaka Takarou.

Tanaka Takarou took a deep breath, suppressed the thoughts in his heart, and continued to fight against Mu Qinghuang.

But unfortunately, without the home-field advantage of the water, and with Mu Qinghuang now seemingly in an invincible state, Tanaka Takarou was struggling to cope and found it difficult to expand his water domain again.

Tanaka Takarou felt immense regret; he should have slowly worn Mu Qinghuang down to death.

If they had remained in the water, she would have had no chance to enter such a state.

Now, he too experienced the frustration of being suppressed without being able to fight back.

Bang!!!

After several collisions, Tanaka Takarou was blasted off the stage by a Flame Impact from Mu Qinghuang.

“In the first match of the final duels, Xia Country wins and gains half of Sakura Country's points! At the same time, Xia Country has secured a spot in the championship battle and will compete for the final World Martial Arts Competition title against tomorrow's winner!!”

After Tanaka Takarou was blasted off the stage, Ivan quickly announced the results of this first match of the final duels.

“We won! We won! We're in the championship battle!”

Xu Xiu said with extreme excitement upon hearing Ivan's announcement.

The others from Xia Country were also incredibly moved.

Ye Wushang's face, however, remained clouded. Although they had advanced to the next round, this battle had been far too tragic.

Basically everyone had sustained very serious injuries.

They might not even be able to have the full team participate in the championship battle. When the time came to face their opponents...

It would likely be very dangerous...

Moreover, Wang Tianba's behavior made Ye Wushang harbor deep suspicions. Did a mole really exist...?

“It's a good thing Xia Country drew Sakura Country. Otherwise, facing either of them would have been a major challenge for us!”

Aaron Helens of the US watched the ending battle and murmured under his breath.

Clearly, the battle between the two sides had made even Aaron Helens feel extremely wary.

The other members of the US team beside him also nodded, their faces full of relief.

If they had encountered these two countries, even if they could win, they would have suffered heavy losses just like Xia Country.

“Alright, since the first battle is over, let's go back and prepare for tomorrow's fight against Perfume Country. We must resolve it cleanly and efficiently tomorrow to preserve our strength for the championship battle!”

Aaron Helens then said to the team members beside him.

Everyone nodded, then left the stage and returned to their palace to prepare.

“Sister Qinghuang, you're amazing! You eliminated two people by yourself and brought us into the finals!”

Gu Yu said with great excitement as he watched Mu Qinghuang slowly walk down from the stage.

After Tanaka Takarou had created the underwater battlefield, Gu Yu was truly worried, fearing that Mu Qinghuang would be eliminated.

If Tanaka Takarou had moved on to the next round, Zhou Bai would certainly not have been his match either.

If that had happened, Xia Country would have stopped right there and been unable to compete for the championship.

Now, Mu Qinghuang had defeated Tanaka Takarou and secured the spot for the championship battle in advance.

Mu Qinghuang didn't speak. When she returned to the Xia Country team, she only felt her consciousness blurring and her body swaying.

Zhou Bai, noticing Mu Qinghuang's condition was wrong, quickly supported her.

“Let's go back!”

Ye Wushang also said to everyone.

Subsequently, Ye Wushang and the others returned to their quarters to rest.

The injured members were doing their best to heal themselves, wanting to recover as much as possible for the subsequent matches.

Zhou Bai returned to his room to continue his cultivation.

The next day, the battle between the US and Perfume Country arrived as scheduled.

Although Perfume Country had prepared a lot for this battle, the gap in strength between the two sides was still too large.

The US only paid the price of one Rank Six being heavily injured and three Rank Fives being lightly injured to successfully advance to the championship battle.

The US would also face Xia Country in the final championship battle tomorrow.

...

That night, in the Xia Country palace.

Inside the palace, the Xia Country contestants were discussing tomorrow's match.

However, the atmosphere of the discussion was somewhat low because the battle with Sakura Country had been truly too tragic.

Gu Yu, Ling Xiao, Qin Hao, Xu Xiu, and Chu Lingyan, including Mu Qinghuang, had all sustained extremely serious injuries and were completely unable to participate in the championship battle.

Only Ye Wushang, Wang Tianba, and Zhou Bai could take the field.

Moreover, Ye Wushang also had serious injuries, and his strength was greatly diminished.

Wang Tianba was also affected by the self-detonation of Yamashita Tetsuya's Heroic Spirit, making it difficult for him to exert his full strength.

The only one in perfect condition was Zhou Bai.

In contrast, the US had three Rank Sixes in perfect condition, including Aaron Helens at his peak, and the remaining four Rank Fives also had the strength to fight.

In this situation, Mu Qinghuang and the others really didn't know how they were going to win. The disparity in combat power was simply too vast.

“Do you have any thoughts regarding tomorrow's battle?”

Looking at the dejected crowd, Ye Wushang spoke in a somewhat low tone.

“Big Brother Ye, I will definitely fight carefully tomorrow and not repeat yesterday's mistake!”

Wang Tianba then said slowly.

After Wang Tianba finished speaking, everyone present felt a surge of helplessness in their hearts.

If Wang Tianba hadn't been taken out by Yamashita Tetsuya yesterday, their situation would undoubtedly be much better.

“Well, do your best!”

Ye Wushang said without joy or sorrow, his tone extremely calm.

“God Bai, it's up to you. I believe you can definitely do it tomorrow and lead us to the championship!”

At this moment, the incredibly weak Xu Xiu looked toward Zhou Bai not far away, her eyes sparkling with a bright light.

Hearing Xu Xiu's words, Zhou Bai's face showed a slight look of surprise. He hadn't expected Xu Xiu to have such high expectations of him.

Beside him, Qin Hao and Chu Lingyan also looked at Zhou Bai with determined gazes, their eyes shining with trust.

“Heh, rely on Zhou Bai? He only knows how to hide in the back. If we rely on him, we might as well just go back directly!”

Wang Tianba gave a cold laugh and then said in a deep voice,

“It still comes down to me. Tomorrow, I will show my strength and let those people from the US know the foundation of Xia Country's martial arts!”

Ye Wushang remained silent, giving Wang Tianba a deep look.

“God Bai will definitely be able to do it, I believe in God Bai!”

Xu Xiu then said firmly.

Not far away, the pale-faced Mu Qinghuang heard this and looked toward the composed Zhou Bai beside her.

“In any case, let's do our best tomorrow. This is the final battle!”

Ye Wushang didn't say much more but spoke indifferently.

After speaking, Ye Wushang turned around and went back to his room. For the remaining time, he needed to put all his effort into adjusting his condition.

Wang Tianba and the others also left the hall one by one.

In a short while, only Zhou Bai and Mu Qinghuang were left in the hall.

“Zhou Bai, what do you think our chances of winning are?”

Thinking of Xu Xiu's mindless trust in Zhou Bai, Mu Qinghuang asked Zhou Bai beside her on a whim.
