168: Chapter 169 I Object to This Champion!

Tang Zhong was certain; there was something wrong with this person.

At this moment, the Judo representative from Bei Country took a step forward, grabbed the arm of the Xuan Country Martial Arts representative, sneered at the corner of his mouth, and then suddenly exerted force, preparing to throw the body of the Xuan Country Martial Arts representative out.

The expression of the Xuan Country Martial Arts representative instantly turned ugly.

He adopted a horse stance to steady himself, his body as immovable as a thousand pounds, preventing him from being pulled down by the Judo representative.

Then, he launched a sidekick directly out.

The Judo representative’s body flashed, dodging the kick, and thus the first exchange passed.

Outside the arena, nearly all the students were cheering for Xuan Country Martial Arts: “Come on, come on!”

They had all witnessed the prior moment and realized how insidious the Judo representative was, to have resorted to such actions.

“Xuan Country Martial Arts must win!”

Tang Zhong watched the Judo representative, noticing something off in every move.

With such a physique, it was impossible for the muscles to generate that level of explosive power.

Strange, very strange indeed.

At this point, the Judo representative was engaged in a fight with the Xuan Country Martial Arts representative.

The Xuan Country Martial Arts representative had trained in Leg Techniques.

He faced the Judo representative head-on, and several times, it seemed he could have defeated the Judo representative, but each time his attacks were blocked.

The problem became increasingly obvious — the reactions of the Judo representative were far too quick.

Quicker than his inherent response time should allow.

Tang Zhong’s brow furrowed, convinced there was something amiss with the Judo representative.

If things were as they seemed, he was likely utilizing some external force to enhance his spirit and muscle power dramatically.

He couldn’t believe that these people from Bei Country would use such despicable methods even in a minor competition.

It was a blatant violation of the competition’s spirit.

Meanwhile, the Siam Boxing representatives seemed to share the same issue as the Judo representative, likely also relying on external assistance.

Such shameless behavior!

To think they would dare be so brazen under Xuan Country’s vast skies, it was as though they didn’t take the people of Xuan Country seriously at all!

In such a competition, there was no organization responsible for checking for forbidden drugs; hence, nobody would uncover these issues.

At that moment, in the arena, the Xuan Country Martial Arts representative suddenly leaped up, his Leg Techniques coming into play with a triple kick aimed directly at the Judo representative.

However, the Judo opponent seemed to have anticipated the move, rapidly turning around to avoid the kick, creating a major vulnerability since the leg missed its target.

Seizing the leg of the Xuan Country representative, the Judo opponent spun around, swiftly causing the Martial Arts representative to lose control, being flung about as if he were a kite.

Eventually, he was thrown out and hit the ground hard.

No sooner had he fallen, the referee came forward to declare the Judo representative the winner.

The Xuan Country Martial Arts representative was still attempting to stand when he heard the result, clenching his fists in anger.

At that moment, the surrounding students watching the match couldn’t help but sigh.

The Xuan Country Martial Arts representative had been defeated.

Some were dejected, but others cheered them on: “It’s okay, we still have others.

It’s normal to have wins and losses in a competition!”

Even the school leaders at the VIP platform felt regret.

This time, members from the Numero Uno Martial Arts Association were representing Xuan Country, and their loss also left them unhappy.

On the side, the Judo leadership was grinning, in particular Yamamoto Ryuuji, dressed in a white robe, with an innocuous smile on his face.

The Taekwondo and Siam Boxing leaders were quick to extend their congratulations: “Judo really lives up to its reputation!”

“It’s nothing, just an empty reputation,” Yamamoto Ryuuji said with a wide smile, appearing displeased yet secretly delighted.

He had actually foreseen this outcome because their people had taken a drug that strengthened the body.

If they stood out in this Martial Arts competition, countless parents in Jianghai would surely choose to send their children to learn Judo.

Another saying about this Martial Arts competition was that the winning martial art would become extremely popular in the days to follow.

Thinking about a future where all students in Jianghai City were learning their Judo, what difference would there be from ruling over Xuan Country?

This very idea was also on the minds of the Siam Boxing and Taekwondo leaders.

They were all prepared to win big at this Martial Arts competition,

After all, unlike the Olympics, which are highly regulated, this competition had much more leniency.

Then they could dominate the Martial Arts market in Jianghai City since they all had their own training halls there.

Just think of the significant revenue that would generate.

Others might be oblivious, but Tang Zhong saw it all clearly.

He had examined the bodies of the Siam Boxing, Taekwondo, and Judo contestants and found them all problematic—whether it was taking forbidden drugs or receiving enhancement injections…

With things as they were, relying on the representatives from the Jianghai City Martial Arts Association, it was impossible to win.

This competition was no longer just a game but a matter of Xuan Country’s national pride.

Although it was a trifling matter, Tang Zhong decided to intervene.

Sure enough, as expected, the Xuan Country Martial Arts representatives stood no chance against these opponents and were all defeated.

The onlooking students lost their spirits, too disheartened to cheer anymore.

Cheering for the representatives from Luo Country or Bei Country was something they simply couldn’t bring themselves to do.

But now, these very countries were the ones continually achieving victories.

Liang Pang grew more and more infuriated as he watched, tossing his bag of potato chips to the ground in frustration: “It’s infuriating; how can our Xuan Country Martial Arts lose to them?”

Tang Zhong, upon hearing this, realized that Liang Pang was indeed a patriot.

He sneered coldly and decided to intervene right then and there.

“Are you angry?”

“Of course, I’m angry.

Taekwondo from Luo Country has evolved from our Xuan Country’s martial arts, and now it dares stand on the head of our martial arts.

How can I not be angry?

It’s so strange, why does everyone seem so strong today?

Even if the people from the Martial Arts Association are weak, they shouldn’t be performing this poorly!” Liang Pang ranted, fuming.

“Then do you want to defeat them with your own hands?” Tang Zhong continued.

“Of course, I do!

Seeing that they are no match, I’m itching to get up there myself.

I know Tai Chi; if I go up there, I could definitely take them down!” Liang Pang said anxiously.

“By the way, who’s the coach for the Martial Arts Association?” Tang Zhong inquired.

Such competitions generally had coaches.

“They’re all PE teachers.

Why do you ask?

Classmate, what do you want with this information?” Liang Pang asked, looking puzzledly at Tang Zhong.

“It’s nothing…” Tang Zhong said before his gaze fell on the center of the arena, his eyes deepening.

Suddenly, Tang Zhong remembered something crucial, “By the way, where did Xin Xiaotong go?”

Upon hearing this, Liang Pang replied, “Oh, you’re talking about Xin Xiaotong.

She was taken away by Principal Lu this morning.

I have no idea where they went!”

Principal Lu was definitely Lu Xingyue, so Xiaotong should be safe.

But as he observed the competition in the arena, his facial expression grew dark.

At this moment, the competition continued unabated, with Xuan Country’s martial artists almost all eliminated.

A large group of contestants gathered beside their coach, looking utterly dejected.

Now, it was Taekwondo, Judo, and Muay Thai competitors vying for supremacy.

After several bouts, the rankings were finally settled.

The first place went to a Judo competitor, a somewhat burly man with dark skin, named Yamamoto Takeshi!

The second place was awarded to a Taekwondo competitor dressed in a white dobok, named Park Le.

The third place was taken by a Muay Thai competitor, with muscles over his entire body.

His name was Alice, an English name only.

Now that the rankings were announced, it was time for the awards ceremony.

Instantly, the leaders on the stage began to congratulate one another, excessively flattering each other.

Yamamoto Ryuuji’s face was practically blooming with his presumptuous smile.

The school leaders were not pleased with the outcome, but at this moment, they could only hold their tongue.

“Judo is indeed profound and extensive!”

However, Yamamoto Ryuuji appeared nonchalant as he proclaimed, “Judo is precisely as such, forever superior to your Xuan Country martial arts!”

The school leaders grimaced, but even though they were dissatisfied, they had nothing to say.

After a loss, any excuse they made was just that—an excuse.

“Then, please, Mr.

Yamamoto, proceed with the award presentation!” The Vice Principal, an elderly man, said with an expression of displeasure.

“Let’s go!”

The leaders on the stage all moved forward to present the awards to Yamamoto Takeshi, Park Le, and Alice.

By tradition, it was the first-place winner’s turn to speak.

Yamamoto Takeshi grabbed the microphone and stood at the highest point, his face filled with disdain.

His short stature, combined with that look on his face, was simply begging for a punch.

“I just want to say one thing right now, and that’s that our Judo is unbeatable.

If you want to learn the strongest martial art, come join our Judo.

As for Xuan Country’s kung fu, there’s no need to bother learning it—it’s too weak.”

Immediately, Yamamoto Ryuuji began to clap vigorously.

The others clapped too.

But for anyone of Xuan Country nationality, this moment was infuriating, and upon hearing Yamamoto Takeshi’s words, they really wanted to go up there and beat him up.

The school leaders looked more displeased than the others.

They were already unhappy with the competition’s outcome, and now, Yamamoto Takeshi’s words only made them angrier.

So nobody clapped for Yamamoto Takeshi.

Yamamoto Takeshi just sneered and continued, “You don’t cheer for my victory.

Isn’t Xuan Country known for its friendliness?

Why so petty today?

It’s just a win.

If you’re weaker, then listen to what I say, because this is the champion’s speech.”

No one moved around him; they were angry, but even that anger was useless—they could only watch on helplessly.

Liang Pang started cursing furiously, “Damn it, you son of a bitch from Bei Country.

If I had gone up there, if your grandpa had been the one fighting, I would’ve killed all of you!”

“So, do you want to go up there?” Tang Zhong looked at Liang Pang and asked.

Yamamoto Takeshi’s words had also angered him.

“Of course, once I’m up there, I’ll kill them.

I…” Liang Pang said, still angered.

“Alright, I’ll give you that chance!” Tang Zhong said with a smile.

Then he stood up from the spectators’ stand and shouted towards the stage where the awards were being presented, “I object to this champion…”
