150: Top Showdown

“You, you, you!”

“This is simply…”

“A disgrace to scholars!”

Hong Tiangan glanced at them disdainfully.

“Scholars? We are all Martial Artists! Let’s not be so prim and proper!”

“If you’re not convinced, let’s go out and Cultivate!”

If Jiang Fan had been there, he would have been utterly shocked.

The Hong Tiangan he remembered as always calm and composed was behaving like this among his peers!

Upon hearing this, they immediately fell silent, looking embarrassed.

It was clear that they were quite wary of Hong Tiangan!

“Alright!”

“Everyone, stop bickering!”

“It’s a matter between the New Students, and us Old fellows are making such a fuss. What kind of example is that!”

Dean, the dean of First Martial Arts University, shook his head.

Hong Tiangan let out a ‘laugh’ sound, laughing.

“Dean, stop pretending!”

“Don’t think I don’t know, these Old fellows are all your sycophants!”

“Would they act like this if you didn’t give the word?”

Dean’s face turned ashen.

“Hong Tiangan, after all these years, you still have the same personality!”

He paused, then suddenly smiled.

“However, what they said is indeed true!”

“Zhuang Hui is our First Martial Arts University’s freshman chief, and also my Disciple!”

“He is very outstanding, that’s a fact!”

“In short, strength isn’t praised into existence by others; it’s fought for by oneself!”

“As for what happens, there will be a conclusion soon!”

Hong Tiangan snorted twice.

“Pah! Hypocrite!”

“After all these years, you’re still as hypocritical!”

“But this time, I’m afraid you’ve miscalculated…”

“If First Martial Arts University loses later, I wonder if you Old fellows will be able to save face?”

Ever since Hong Tiangan learned that Jiang Fan possessed a Transcendent Body, his confidence in Jiang Fan had exploded!

Both Zhuang Hui and Jiang Fan were High-stage Level Four.

In Hong Tiangan’s heart, even if Zhuang Hui had many methods given to him by Dean, it wouldn’t be a fraction of what a Transcendent Body offered.

A Transcendent Body, by its very nature, is a flawless and perfect body for Cultivation, always crushing opponents within the same Realm.

How could a mere Zhuang Hui compare to Jiang Fan?

Seeing Hong Tiangan speak with such certainty and confidence, Dean and the others couldn't help but feel a sense of trepidation.

Is this Jiang Fan really as formidable as this Old fellow claims?

Although they thought this, they showed no weakness in their words.

For a moment, the lounge erupted into chaos again!

...Meanwhile, on the fighting stage.

The match had entered the preparation phase.

Jiang Fan and Zhuang Hui stood facing each other.

The Referee looked left and right.

“Do the two contestants need anything else to prepare?”

Jiang Fan slightly shook his head.

Zhuang Hui also smiled and said,

“No, let’s start quickly!”

The Referee retreated from the center of the fighting stage, moved to a safe position, and then waved his hand.

“Alright, I now announce!”

“The championship battle of this Freshman League, Jiang Fan VS Zhuang Hui, begins!”

Before his words finished, Zhuang Hui on the stage flashed, charging towards Jiang Fan like a bolt of lightning.

At the same time, he clenched his right fist and fiercely struck towards Jiang Fan’s throat.

Jiang Fan’s eyes narrowed.

This Zhuang Hui was indeed as ruthless as rumored; his first move was a killing blow!

Although he was a High-stage Level Four, and his physical strength was far beyond that of ordinary people, if he were hit, he would likely be instantly crippled.

However, Jiang Fan’s movements were also extremely fast. Before Zhuang Hui could get close, he quickly moved sideways, easily dodging Zhuang Hui’s attack with his agile footwork.

At the same time, he clenched his hand and fiercely attacked Zhuang Hui’s side.

Zhuang Hui’s attack missed. Feeling the rushing wind on his left, he quickly retreated at high speed, barely evading Jiang Fan’s strike.

In the first round, both of them made a move, and both missed!

Jiang Fan and Zhuang Hui stood on opposite sides of the fighting stage.

Zhuang Hui smiled and said,

“Jiang Fan, are you just going to dodge?”

Jiang Fan responded indifferently,

“I just saw someone looking more disheveled!”

Zhuang Hui snorted coldly.

“Sharp-tongued!”

Saying that, he stomped his feet, suddenly exerting force, and charged towards Jiang Fan again like a cannonball.

This time, his speed was faster and his power greater.

Jiang Fan flicked his hand, and the energy of heaven and earth quickly condensed on his right arm.

He met Zhuang Hui’s fist with a powerful strike.

Bang!

Fists collided, and the two figures rapidly retreated.

Jiang Fan retreated two meters to the edge of the fighting stage, while Zhuang Hui directly crashed into a pillar on the fighting stage, barely dissipating the force and stabilizing himself!

In the second round, Jiang Fan had a slight advantage!

Zhuang Hui rubbed his slightly numb arm, his face grim.

How could this Jiang Fan possess such immense power?

He had been a High-stage Level Four for a long time, and his foundation was incredibly solid!

How could this so-called Genius from a remote small town like Jiang Fan compare to him?

I refuse to believe it!

Zhuang Hui’s competitive spirit was ignited by Jiang Fan. He once again pushed his power to the limit and bombarded Jiang Fan.

‘Bang, bang, bang, bang!’

In an instant, afterimages flickered on the stage, and the sounds of fists and feet colliding continuously echoed.

Due to their extreme speed, the Martial Artists with lower Realms in the audience couldn’t even clearly see the trajectory of the battle.

“Too fast! Is this the true strength of Level Four?”

“Oh my goodness! When will I reach this Realm?”

“…”

After dozens of rounds.

‘Boom!’

With a burst of explosive sound, the two figures rapidly retreated and separated.

Looking from below the stage, Jiang Fan’s clothes were slightly disheveled, while Zhuang Hui on the opposite side had traces of blood at the corner of his mouth.

His slightly swollen jaw showed that he was the weaker party in the recent fight.

“What’s happening? Zhuang Hui is injured?”

“Impossible! How could he be at a disadvantage?”

“…”

Some students from First Martial Arts University couldn’t accept this fact and exclaimed in surprise.

However, their voices were quickly drowned out by the students of Ninth Martial Arts University.

“What’s impossible? Isn’t it obvious enough? Zhuang Hui is injured, but Jiang Fan is perfectly fine. It’s clear that Zhuang Hui is not as good as Jiang Fan!”

“Hahaha, is this the strength of First Martial Arts University’s chief representative? It’s nothing special!”

“…”

The students of First Martial Arts University were instantly provoked and retorted angrily.

“The match has just begun, what are you so proud of? Zhuang Hui hasn’t shown his true strength yet. When he uses his trump card, let’s see if you still have anything to say!”

The students of Ninth Martial Arts University immediately chuckled.

“Is that so? But the fact is, Zhuang Hui lost the first round!”

“…”

“You’re talking nonsense!”

“What? Can’t win the fight, can’t win the argument, so you resort to insults?”

“You… you, you!”

“…”

For a moment, the entire audience below the stage descended into chaos.

In the lounge on the high platform.

Hong Tiangan looked at the other deans’ displeased expressions and said triumphantly,

“I see this Zhuang Hui doesn’t seem to be that great after all!”

Dean’s face was grim as he rumbled,

“The match isn’t over yet. It’s too early to say anything now!”

Hong Tiangan curled his lips into a slight smile.

“Then let’s wait and see!”

After speaking, he even started whistling, much to the exasperation of the other Old fellows… On the stage, Zhuang Hui wiped away the blood from the corner of his mouth, a cruel glint flashing across his face.

“Jiang Fan, you’re very good!”

“You’ve successfully ignited my anger!”

“Now, I’m going to get serious. Are you ready to accept my judgment?”

Jiang Fan heard the other party’s incredibly childish words, like he was reciting a script, and slowly spoke.

“Idiot!”
