Chapter 159: Chapter 159: The Power of One Punch

"Are you sure?" Su Jinyun and Zhang Yuanqing found it somewhat hard to believe.

"Sure," Su Luo nodded.

"Then... I’ll trust you this time, let’s go all out!" Su Jinyun clenched her teeth decisively.

Although she had only sparred briefly with Su Luo, his strength was definitely above hers, so it wasn’t impossible for Su Luo to defeat Xia Lianyun.

Zhang Yuanqing felt helpless.

But since Su Jinyun had spoken, he could only choose to believe in Su Luo, since they had no better option.

Most importantly, they were out of time to hesitate.

Rao Xingwu, Xia Lianyun, and Hong Yi had already arrived with their men.

"Su Luo, take on Xia Lianyun!"

"I’ll take on Hong Yi!"

"Zhang Yuanqing, take on Rao Xingwu!"

"You all are to hold off the members of the other three factions of the Martial Association, can you do it?"

Su Jinyun swiftly instructed the others who had gathered behind them.

"No problem."

The crowd nodded.

Now, this was the only path they could take. On this arena, lasting a little longer would, at the very least, secure a higher ranking for their Martial Association.

Following Su Jinyun’s instructions,

everyone dispersed.

Su Luo stood alone on the arena.

No one was by his side.

Xia Lianyun stepped forward, his face grim as he stared at Su Luo. He didn’t attack immediately but smirked, "Kid, I’m surprised you’ve lasted this long without being eliminated."

"Haven’t you been paying close attention to me all along? What surprise is there to talk about?" Su Luo smiled.

Indeed.

Since the moment he stepped onto the arena, Xia Lianyun and Rao Xingwu had been watching him closely. Su Luo even suspected that, had he been in danger of being defeated and falling off the arena, Xia Lianyun and Rao Xingwu would have intervened to save him.

For example, when Su Jinyun attacked him, under the scrutiny of Su Luo’s Divine Sense, Xia Lianyun and Rao Xingwu almost simultaneously inched closer to him as if ready to act at any moment.

Of course, Su Luo was certain that neither Rao Xingwu nor Xia Lianyun, before him, wished to see him defeated and thrown off the arena not because they truly wanted to save him.

But because they wanted him to hold out until the end.

And then...

personally deal with him.

And preferably, to thoroughly humiliate him in front of the Martial Arts World of the South.

Perhaps Rao Xingwu’s desire to humiliate him was less intense, but Xia Lianyun definitely harbored such intentions.

Otherwise, Xia Lianyun would have acted against him much earlier, not waiting until now.

"You actually noticed?" A hint of surprise flickered in Xia Lianyun’s eyes.

But then, Xia Lianyun sneered again, "Even if you did notice, what can you do about it? Today, your fate cannot be changed. Kid, if you’re willing to kneel and beg me, I might consider sparing you. Otherwise, you will regret it for life!"

Su Luo shook his head, "Don’t you know the villain dies from talking too much? Really, I don’t have time for your nonsense."

Having said that,

Su Luo initiated his Lightning Fist, attacking Xia Lianyun head-on.

He needed to ensure he could defeat Xia Lianyun within a minute to then support Su Jinyun and Zhang Yuanqing.

Because, in Su Luo’s judgment, Su Jinyun and Zhang Yuanqing could only last for a minute at most.

Especially Zhang Yuanqing.

It would be extremely difficult.

Below the arena,

many spectators had expressions full of intrigue.

"Based on their previous display of strength, the best choice for Su Luo, Su Jinyun, and Zhang Yuanqing would be to fight together, united. Splitting up will only get them defeated one by one. What are they doing? Did they fail to agree on an alliance, or have their brains been kicked by a donkey?"

Some became anxious.

Originally, when they saw Su Luo, Su Jinyun, and Zhang Yuanqing stand together, they assumed they had formed an alliance. They even thought, perhaps they could compete with Rao Xingwu, Xia Lianyun, and Hong Yi, creating a four-way struggle for dominance.

This was something many spectators were eager to see.

But the outcome was a complete shock to them.

They fought separately.

The vast majority had already written off Su Luo and his colleagues.

"It seems their defeat is only a matter of time now. In the end, it’s all down to Rao Xingwu, Xia Lianyun, and Hong Yi to compete for supremacy."

"What do you think, out of Su Luo, Su Jinyun, and Zhang Yuanqing, who will be the first to fall?"

"Is that even a question? Definitely Su Luo!"

"That’s not necessarily true. When Su Jinyun fought Su Luo before, Su Luo had the upper hand and had a firm grip on her."

"That was just Su Goddess being careless, just watch if you don’t believe it."

Below the arena, it was incredibly lively.

Above the arena, it was just the same.

Everyone was locked in battle.

Of course, it was no longer a melee.

There was a clear order to the fight.

In the battle zone that belonged to Su Luo, he launched an attack at Xia Lianyun with his Lightning Fist.

Xia Lianyun, however, sneered, "You country bumpkin sure have some courage, but sadly, you’re destined to fall here today."

The so-called rules – no heavy blows, no lethal moves – those were just rules.

When martial artists clash, who can guarantee complete control? In the arena, accidents often happen.

If he really did cripple Su Luo, at most he would be punished after the match, a precedent of which had been set before.

This was why he was blatantly saying, on the stage, that he intended to cripple Su Luo.

Xia Lianyun clenched his fist, his Inner Strength circulating in the unique way of the Xia Family.

In an instant.

A torrential floodlike sound burst forth from within Xia Lianyun’s body, his Inner Strength surging powerfully.

With his punch, he fiercely unleashed it.

The technique he used was one from the Jinling Xia Family’s boxing methods, named [Dragon Fight in the Wild].

This move was also one of the signature moves of the Xia Family’s boxing techniques, capable of concentrating all of one’s strength in the fist, unleashing maximum power.

With a cold smile playing on his lips, Xia Lianyun was confident that under his fist, Su Luo’s fist and along with it, his entire arm, would be rendered useless on the spot.

"Bang!"

The next moment.

Su Luo’s Lightning Fist collided with Xia Lianyun’s fist, which had been enhanced by the Xia Family’s boxing technique.

In an instant.

The collision of the two Inner Strengths created a terrifying force that spread in all directions from where their fists met.

It left both Su Luo’s and Xia Lianyun’s clothing flapping loudly in the resulting wind.

Then.

To everyone’s surprise...

Su Luo stood his ground, as solid as a rock.

On the other hand, Xia Lianyun let out a scream and was sent flying backwards.

Xia Lianyun didn’t fall off the platform.

But he was unsteady from the force and fell onto the arena.

Not only that.

The sleeves of Xia Lianyun’s arm, all the way to his fist, were torn apart, flesh mangled and bloody.

"How... How is this possible?"

Everyone watching the battle between Su Luo and Xia Lianyun drew in their breath, utterly astonished.
