The martial arts cup event was already in the later stage. The fighters who were not qualified were eliminated, and those who were still in the competition were all master fighters. Moreover, they were all higher-ranking master fighters with the weakest amongst them being third-tier master fighters. On the other hand, the match today had Zayn up against Johansson. Both of them were perfect-class master fighters, so it was a match that attracted countless fighters’ attention. From their point of view, it would absolutely be a fierce fight between two evenly-matched opponents. One should know that perfect-class master fighters were already considered top of the world to the vast majority of people because there were very few who could achieve this extent even in the whole world. They did not even have the chance to get a glance of a perfect-class master fighter on usual days, yet now, they could actually watch the match between two perfect-class master fighters. It was simply an
In fact, he perceived Zayn as a stepping stone. He declared, “Zayn, you’ll be undeniably defeated in this match!”Zayn smiled nonchalantly. “Are you actually choosing not to yield? It seems that you’re very confident.”All the audience at the scene assumed that the match between Zayn and Johansson would certainly be ferocious. They did not expect that both of them would not engage each other in a fight at once after the bell was rung, but on the contrary, they were chatting leisurely. The Rheasian fighters felt just a little disappointed because, in their imagination, Zayn should be charging forward valiantly and beating Johansson to death in an all-powerful manner without giving him the chance to surrender as soon as the bell was rung. However, the outcome turned out to be this which was way beyond their expectation. There was top-level personnel from foreign countries in the spectators’ seating area and they looked forward to the match very much. Moreover, the Hoffman fathe
It was Johansson who made the first move. He approached Zayn on purpose and verbally provoked him, trying to ascertain whether Zayn had been weakened. He had noticed that Zayn had lost his prior power. At least, the pressure he exerted was far weaker than before!Hence, he swiftly made the first move by launching a ferocious attack. Moreover, he discovered that Zayn did not notice when he attacked in a timely manner. Zayn was still standing there in a daze without responding to the situation at all. It was a rare opportunity for him!As long as he could defeat Zayn, he would have a chance of being the champion of the Martial Arts Cup and also becoming an invincibilis powerhouse!The crowd standing under the ring were very tense. They focused their attention on Zayn and when they noticed that he had yet to respond, they could feel their hearts pounding in their chests. Lindsay was the first to call out, “Oh no! It seems that my teacher isn’t responding because he’s distracted
He moved so fast that he managed to distance himself by one meter in about 0.01 seconds. Still, that distance was nothing to Zayn. Everyone at the scene was still stunned after seeing Zayn being punched by Johansson and thought he was about to be knocked out when Zayn stretched out his hand at an incredible speed. He was so swift that the most advanced camera in the world would not be able to record the movement. He grabbed Johansson’s neck almost instantaneously and raised Johansson’s massive body into the air. He smiled ruthlessly and said, “Was it you who gave the order to kill all the Rheasian fighters?”“No, don’t…”Johansson was so terrified that he could barely respond. His throat was in Zayn’s grip, and he was overwhelmed by a sense of powerlessness that he had never experienced before!He began to realize that Zayn had not weakened at all. On the contrary, he had become even more formidable. In other words, Zayn had absorbed the great power fully this time!Zayn had
As a perfect-class master fighter, Johansson was highly durable, so he was still alive even after his neck was broken. His eyes widened as he stared at Zayn in shock. His eyes, pleading for mercy, were filled with terror, regret, unwillingness to die, and panic…Moreover, a close-up shot of his face happened to be displayed on the screen. It showed everyone in the entire arena and all the fighters watching the live stream globally see his expression. They could read the emotions in his heart were clear to see!The entire scene fell silent. The crowd had only been jolted back to reality from their shocked state when Zayn loosened his grip on Johansson, dropping his body to the floor with a loud thud. Even then, Zayn had left them extremely shocked, and they found that they were incapable of describing their feelings with words. They were absolutely astounded by Zayn. Even though they were aware of Zayn being a peerless powerhouse and that he was the most powerful man in the co
The rest of the high-level personnel from Rheasia were also delighted. They could not stand the sight of Tennyson from the start, but they refused to shed all pretences of cordiality out of diplomacy. Tennyson finally reacted to the situation. His expression was extremely unpleasant, dark, and solemn. As he was confronted by Antony’s mockery, he wanted to retort instinctively, but he did not have the right to anymore. He could only let out a loud grunt and swallowed his anger. In the end, he said dryly, “Your Rheasian fighter was lucky.”“Is that so?” Antony was used to Tennyson’s behavior. He shifted his gaze back to the ring and saw that Zayn did not continue to fight Johansson because he knew the man was already dead. Zayn stood in the ring and looked down at Johansson from above, watching him die in agony and regret. With that, he felt that a part of his pent-up anger was relieved, so he said to himself, “Sergeant Constantine, Ezekiel, and my many countrymen who died in
Some people pulled out their phones to record a video so they could turn it into a memory that would last for eternity. A long, long time after this event, people still remembered everything that happened. A man named Zayn Larson stepped forward and achieved the first victory for Rheasia on the darkest day for Rheasian fighters. It was also he who brought upon the first ray of hope for Rheasians. From that moment onward, something was awakened in the hearts of all Rheasian fighters!One name was burned into the hearts and minds of all of them, and the name was Zayn Larson. Beyond the arena, the people watching the live stream on television were also greatly affected.Besides the Rheasian fighters, countless fighters from other countries in the world were astonished. They remembered Zayn, the man who appeared so average yet possessed boundless charm and abilities. Hearing the cheers, shouts, and applause from so many of his countrymen, Zayn felt an immense power. It was as i
Some of those lives were his own countrymen, so it was nothing to be proud of. However, this did not signify that he would stop moving forward. He had to persist to become the champion of the Martial Arts Cup so that his countrymen’s sacrifice would not have been in vain!The entire crowd cheered on. He raised his right hand and the people quieted down instantly. Zayn’s gaze swept past everyone when he said solemnly, “I won and I promise that I won’t disappoint you in every match that follows.”Upon saying that, he bowed at the countrymen standing below the ring. The arena remained silent. Everyone widened their eyes in shock as they stared at Zayn in the ring. They were stunned that a man so far beyond any normal human being would bow to them like they were kin.An emotional feeling of admiration built up in the chests of everyone before erupting. The silence lasted three seconds before someone responded. The man hastily returned the bow at Zayn while shouting, “Thank you,
