Chapter 130: Chapter 130 Public Challenge_1
Fang Qing closed the web page, and a colleague walked in at that moment.
"Fang, latest news, Hou Congsheng has issued a challenge to Su Chengyu through television media, scheduling a duel the day after tomorrow at noon, in Linjiang Sports Gymnasium."
"What?"
Fang Qing was taken aback. His colleague forwarded him the video from his phone. It was a challenge video recorded by Hou Congsheng.
"Hou Congsheng, a Ninth Grade martial artist, was originally ranked fifth on the list of masters. But now Su Chengyu has taken his ranking, and Hou Congsheng is unsatisfied as Su Chengyu is Ninth Grade too. Hence, he is issuing a public challenge. It remains to be seen whether Su Chengyu will accept the challenge!"
Fang Qing’s colleague also knew Su Chengyu. He was there when Su Chengyu stole Lin Chuxue’s car and was subsequently arrested.
"Considering what I know about him, he will take up this challenge." Fang Qing stated.
"I can’t believe Su Chengyu is this strong, we even tried to catch him once. When we checked his information, we thought he was useless." expressed Fang Qing’s colleague.
However, Fang Qing looked serious as Su Chengyu would be headed to Linjiang Sports Gymnasium for the duel at noon the day after tomorrow if he accepts the challenge. Cui Yan would surely be there too.
Even if Su Chengyu defeats Hou Congsheng, Cui Yan won’t let him off. It’s a fatal situation.
And for such a public challenge, Su Chengyu, being on the Dragon Soul Masters List, can’t refuse without losing face. After all, his ranking is above Hou Congsheng’s, and refusing the challenge would be a significant embarrassment.
For a martial artist, nothing is more important than face and status.
Fang Qing let his colleague leave and then muttered to himself, "Su Chengyu, I’ve helped you as much as I could. From here on out, whether you live or die, I’m powerless to change it."
Since the moment Hou Congsheng issued his public challenge through television media, Linjiang was ablaze with discussions.
The Jiang family.
Jiang Yuyan witnessed Su Chengyu being arrested by Dragon Soul, thought Su Chengyu was done for, and managed to keep the company running using high-interest loans.
When the Chen family heard about Su Chengyu’s arrest, they felt relieved and had a chance to breathe.
Jiang Yuyan, however, couldn’t escape from Chen Jun. Even though she knew Chen Jun was useless, the Jiang family still had to rely on the Chen family. Plus, Jiang Yuyan wanted her one billion loan back from the Chen family.
Jiang Yuyan wasn’t paying attention to the updating of the Dragon Soul Masters List, but she knew about the challenge video as it was broadcast through television media.
"Didn’t you say he was captured by Dragon Soul? How did he end up on the Dragon Soul Masters List, and now being challenged by Hou Congsheng?"
Chen Jun called Jiang Yuyan to question her.
"I did see him being taken away by the Dragon Soul. I don’t know what happened... Was he released?"
Jiang Yuyan felt like the end of the world was near again. As long as Su Chengyu was alive, both their families will have bad days.
"There’s no use in talking about it now. Get tickets for when the time comes. I hope Hou Congsheng can kill him. Otherwise, we’ll never have peace!"
Chen Jun said with a face full of resentment and gritted his teeth.
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Yuyan looked very troubled.
"Su Chengyu! Why aren’t you dead? Bastard!" Jiang Yuyan cursed angrily.
As long as Su Chengyu is alive, both Jiang and Chen families will always be uneasy. Jiang Zhicheng was also as anxious as ants on a hot pot and could only sigh.
Zhou Chaoming and Xu Lingshan also saw the news and were slightly worried about Su Chengyu.
After all, Hou Congsheng is a famous master whose strength is undisputed.
Although Su Chengyu’s ranking is higher than Hou Congsheng’s, the ranking doesn’t necessarily reflect the absolute strength. In addition, the status of the two on the Dragon Soul Masters List is the same.
Xu Lingshan hurriedly called Su Chengyu.
"Mr. Su, Hou Congsheng has sent you a challenge. Are you aware of it?"
"No clue. What challenge?"
Su Chengyu didn’t bother to watch TV or follow the media news.
"Just now, Hou Congsheng publicly challenged you through television media. The duel will take place at noon the day after tomorrow in the Linjiang Sports Gymnasium. He said in the video that this duel will establish superiority and decide life and death! Do you hold any resentment toward Hou Congsheng?" Xu Lingshan asked.
"Oh? Life and death duel? That’s surprising."
Su Chengyu frowned. He didn’t expect Hou Congsheng would be so ruthless or high-profile, publicly challenging him to a life-or-death duel.
"Do you have any confidence? After all, your ranking on the Masters List is higher than his," Xu Lingshan said, not wanting anything happening to Su Chengyu.
"If we haven’t fought, how can I have confidence? If I die in battle, I have to trouble you to collect my body." Su Chengyu joked.
"Please stop talking like that. I believe you can defeat him. But this Hou Congsheng, he’s not ordinary. Please be careful. Even if it’s a life-and-death duel, and you happen to win, it’s better not to kill him. He is, after all, backed by the powerful Hou family from Jiangdong province."
Xu Lingshan kindly reminded.
"Thanks for the reminder. I’ll keep that in mind."
After saying this, Su Chengyu hung up.
As for confronting Hou Congsheng, Su Chengyu didn’t feel any pressure. He wasn’t exaggerating when he claimed he didn’t consider Hou Congsheng a threat.
Su Chengyu was confident that he could beat someone of Ninth Grade. What he truly dreaded was Fang Qing’s senior brother, Cui Yan.
Once the news got out, Cui Yan would surely be at the duel site. Then, he would face two Ninth Grade Masters, and unless he achieved a breakthrough, the duel was sure to become a life-and-death fight!
Just after hanging up with Xu Lingshan, Liu Yan called. Naturally, she was talking about Hou Congsheng’s challenge.
"Can you refuse this challenge?"
"What do you think? If I refuse, won’t I be laughed at in the martial arts community of Linjiang?" Su Chengyu chuckled.
"Being laughed at is better than losing your life! Stay out of danger and you could still make a comeback. You are young and have more potential than him." Liu Yan said.
"Seems like you don’t have much faith in me. I dare to bet that Aunt Xu wouldn’t underestimate me like this." Su Chengyu said.
"I’m only worried for Nan Zhi. If you die, who will treat her? If not for this reason, your life and death have nothing to do with me." Liu Yan also became tough like Lin Chuxue.
"Just wait and see." Su Chengyu replied nonchalantly.
Before hanging up, Liu Yan suddenly said, "You scoundrel, good luck, beat him!"
Su Chengyu put the phone down, touched his nose and wondered, "When did I become a scoundrel?"
Ever since the news of the challenge went public, Su Chengyu’s phone had been quite busy. People he had ever interacted with, people who had his number, all called him, some out of concern, some to cheer him on.
In short, this battle had become the talk of the town overnight, causing Su Chengyu, who had wanted to keep a low profile, unable to do so any longer.
In fact, from the moment he got on the Dragon Soul Masters List, he was destined not to be able to keep a low profile as he used to.
"Alright then, let’s use this battle to let everyone reacquaint themselves with me, Su Chengyu!"
