Chapter 299: Chapter 233 King Yan Fights! Tiger-shaped Splitting Fist!

Jian Province Competition, on the eve of the finals.

Yingze City was turned upside down by the Four Cults Riot, and the Jian Province Three Armies searched the entire city, the atmosphere tense and uneasy.

On the other hand, the news spread that the Master of Hundred Flower Palace, ’Innate Master’ Yan Chuan, was managing the Hundred Flower Palace and widely disseminating boxing and swordsmanship, attracting many Old School Jianghu people and even New Martial Artists eager to join.

During the Jian Province Competition, New and Old School Martial Artists gathered in countless numbers, many of whom were captivated by Yan Chuan’s performance and charisma at the Jian Province Competition, with countless martial artists yearning for Yan Chuan’s self-created ’Five Fists and Five Skills’ and ’Five Mountains Swordsmanship.’

Previously, it was difficult to join due to the Hundred Flower Palace’s loose organization, Yan Chuan focused on the competition and not on the affairs, leaving no clear channel to join.

But now, Yan Chuan subdivided departments within the ’Hundred Flower Palace’ and delineated responsibilities, and clearly planned to teach boxing and swordsmanship within the ’Hundred Flower Palace.’

The news, as it spread, naturally stirred up a huge wave, awakening tremendous enthusiasm.

So much so that the fervor just experienced from the ’Cult Riot’ was overshadowed by three parts.

Yan Chuan!

Hundred Flower Palace!

Became the biggest topic in Yingze City, surpassing the ’Cult Riot’!

...

In a blink.

March 18th.

Whether it’s the cults or the Hundred Flower Palace, on this day, their limelight and discussion were suppressed, today’s only theme is —

The finals!

’Innate Master’ Yan Chuan VS ’Unrivaled Divine Power’ Wang Zhengyi!

The most pinnacle battle of the Jian Province Competition finally commenced!

...

"Meeting again!"

"Yan Chuan and Wang Zhengyi met in the first round, didn’t expect they’d meet again in the finals!"

"What a coincidence!"

"In the first round, Wang won and Yan lost, this time, who knows if Yan Chuan can win?"

"What are you talking about! The first round doesn’t count. Yan Chuan dominated Wang Zhengyi from start to finish and conceded at the end, purely wanting to shine in the loser’s bracket. This Yan Chuan loves the limelight, just look at the subsequent rounds, which official match did he not concede?"

"Tch! Wang Zhengyi is strong in Qi Power, and he holds the ’Mirage Pearl,’ creating dense fog, even ’Deceit Sword’ Fu Yunzhan was no match, I think Yan Chuan will have a tough time too!"

...

The pinnacle duel between Yan Chuan and Wang Zhengyi stirred countless discussions.

Some supported Yan Chuan.

Some believed Wang Zhengyi was stronger.

Audiences were chatting animatedly, comparing based on the duo’s past performances, attempting to determine a winner beforehand.

Ordinary spectators joined in the fun.

Martial Arts Practitioners each held their opinions.

But even limit-breaking and high-grade martial artists couldn’t reach a consensus on who between Yan Chuan and Wang Zhengyi was stronger, and even the big shots on the eastern grandstand had no conclusion.

Ni Mengtong had more faith in Yan Chuan: "That night, Yan Chuan single-handedly held off two Six-winged Sect Commanders, holding his ground one against two. Even later, when the two commanders’ strength soared to seventh or eighth grade after worshiping, he could still fight for dozens or hundreds of rounds. His strength is indisputable."

Ni Mengtong, to confirm her insight, looked at Jiang Bianliu beside her: "Elder Jiang saw everything clearly from start to finish, I am not exaggerating Yan Chuan’s strength."

"Yan Chuan’s boxing, swordsmanship, and movement technique are all first-tier among the younger generation."

Jiang Bianliu didn’t speak so absolutely but acknowledged Yan Chuan’s strength.

On the side.

Li Mingshan chuckled: "Yan Chuan is among the top, that is undeniable. But Wang Zhengyi is also not bad. His battle with Fu Yunzhan, that Big Palm Print was shocking. Even a ninth-grade expert would struggle to produce such might. He must have another treasure besides the ’Mirage Pearl.’ The ’Mirage Pearl’ is mainly defensive, but if another treasure is mainly offensive, Yan Chuan’s advantages in boxing, swordsmanship, and movement techniques cannot be played out in front of Wang Zhengyi."

Therefore, for this battle, Li Mingshan leaned towards Wang Zhengyi winning.

Since the emergence of the Mountain and Sea Realm, the strength of martial artists no longer just depended on the excellence of their martial arts and Qi Power. Exotic treasures and surprise weapons from the Mountain and Sea Realm have also become a significant factor, even surpassing martial arts and Qi Power as the primary factor.

Yan Chuan’s martial arts are strong?

No matter how strong, martial arts still fear exotic treasures!

But —

"How does Brother Li know Yan Chuan doesn’t have an exotic treasure?"

Sima Feng laughed, siding with neither, purely enjoying the upcoming pinnacle battle between Yan Chuan and Wang Zhengyi, eagerly anticipating the final outcome. He regretted slightly, though: "Even if Yan Chuan is forced to reveal his trump card and bring out an exotic treasure, it’s estimated that it can’t be seen."

Why?

Because Wang Zhengyi’s ’Mirage Pearl’ is too rogue!

...

"In a moment, when I use this ’Mirage Pearl,’ Brother Yan, use any formidable means you have, I guarantee outsiders won’t see a thing!"

On the platform, Wang Zhengyi said to Yan Chuan.

Yan Chuan nodded upon hearing: "That’s good!"

The two looked at each other and instantly laughed.

Both of them knew well, they aren’t just concerned with this ’Jian Province Competition’ single deal. If during the competition, they reveal all their trump cards and treasures, then, when it comes to the ’Cang Mountain Sword Discussion,’ they will be exposed with no secrets, every move will be studied thoroughly by opponents, preparing all kinds of countermeasures in advance, reducing the odds of winning.

With Wang Zhengyi’s ’Mirage Pearl,’ it’s different. By then, any hidden means they have, like Wang Zhengyi’s ’Big Handprint,’ can be displayed in the dense fog where others can’t see, and hence can’t transmit, so the opponents at the ’Cang Mountain Sword Discussion’ will have no foreknowledge.

The fog is good!

The Mirage Pearl is good!

Yan Chuan and Wang Zhengyi stood facing each other, both already quite familiar, having crossed swords before. At this moment, meeting again on the platform, Yan Chuan, unlike with other opponents, did not purposely delay or teach; he charged straight and aggressively, the ’Xingyi Boxing’ pressing towards Wang Zhengyi.
