Chapter 796: Chapter 795 Blind Cat Meets Dead Rat

After a good while, the Hu Family finally reacted.

Patriarch Hu was the first to stand up, with an expression of incredulity on his face.

Although the man who had gone on stage didn’t have particularly strong martial arts within the Hu Family, he was by no means weak. Among the heads of all the martial arts halls in Liuan City, there were definitely less than ten percent who could be stronger than him.

Patriarch Hu simply couldn’t comprehend how this man could have been defeated by the unknown Zhao Ping’an.

Especially being defeated so miserably, with a single blow that sent him flying—what kind of strength did Zhao Ping’an possess?

"How... How is this possible?" someone from the Hu Family murmured in disbelief.

"Look, this lad... This lad’s strength is improving; he... he has now entered the Qi Cultivation Realm!"

"Good heavens, was this kid playing the fool to catch the wise? Pretending to be at Foundation Establishment just now, he was actually fooling us!"

"Even if he’s in the Qi Cultivation Realm, he shouldn’t have such tremendous power, right?"

Amidst the astonished exclamations from the Hu Family, others were also whispering in shock.

The Dewei Martial Arts Hall was the most shocked, because they were well aware of Zhao Ping’an’s capabilities.

"What... What exactly is going on?" a disciple asked, astounded.

The others looked at each other, completely baffled. Zhao Ping’an had only been learning martial arts at their hall for a little more than a month; how had he suddenly become so strong?

"It’s just a blind cat running into a dead rat!" Foo Qinglan said indignantly, "How is his strength strong? It’s clear that the man’s strength was too weak. The Hu Family looked down on him, so they sent such a nobody to fight with him, allowing him to take advantage mistakenly!"

The other disciples remained silent. In reality, they knew very well that it wasn’t as simple as a blind cat running into a dead rat.

This man had personally defeated Fu Dewei, to the point where Fu Dewei vomited blood. Moreover, even if it really was that the man’s strength was too weak, the fact that Zhao Ping’an sent him flying so far with one hit was enough to prove something.

This man weighed at least one hundred and fifty jin; to fly out more than ten meters—is that something ordinary people can do?

In the stands, those of the Hu Family’s Spoiled Brat were dumbstruck as well. The face of the Hu Family’s Spoiled Brat turned very ugly, and frowning, he said gravely, "This Zhao fellow was playing the fool to catch the wise and actually has such skill?"

The lackey looked towards Min’er and said, "Sister-in-law, you’ve been with Zhao for such a long time; why didn’t you give Brother Hu a heads up?"

Min’er’s complexion changed dramatically, and she quickly said, "I... I really didn’t know he knew martial arts. Before, he was just a good-for-nothing; he didn’t even dare to quarrel when going out. He... He must have learned this recently?"

Hu Family’s Spoiled Brat glanced at Min’er and said coldly, "What he’s learned recently, do you think he’s an Immortal? In just one short month, to make such big progress? In martial arts, what counts is accumulated efforts over days and months. With his kind of strength, without a decade or more, it would be impossible to achieve!"

Min’er was even more flustered, pleading, "I... I really didn’t know, he never mentioned these things in front of me before, I... I really had no idea he knew martial arts. Honey, how... how could I deceive you?"

Hu Family’s Spoiled Brat’s mood didn’t improve as he waved his hand to push Min’er away, saying coldly, "Stop talking nonsense to me, this bastard, dare to make a fool out of me. Today, I’ll make sure he can’t leave Beiwang Manor!"

"Brother Hu, why bother getting angry?" The Lackey hurriedly laughed and said, "This is only the first match, the Hu Family just casually sent someone to test the waters. Now that we know this kid has hidden his strength, next up, the Hu Family definitely won’t be courteous with him. Let’s not get upset, just wait and see how this kid gets beaten to death on the stage, that will do!"

Hu Family’s Spoiled Brat eventually smiled, saying, "That’s true, why should I be angry? No matter how capable he is, can he escape the palm of the Hu Family? In the next match, just let him die!"

There was a commotion at the scene as well, although everyone was surprised by Zhao Ping’an’s demonstrated strength, they didn’t really pay it much heed. After all, the Hu Family had only casually sent up someone for the fight, and Zhao Ping’an had only fought one match so far. What’s more, there were still two matches left, and the Hu Family had begun to take him seriously; how could he possibly hold on for several matches?

Sure enough, as everyone had predicted. Patriarch Hu took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Second uncle, please, take care of the next match!"

An elder walked out from among the Hu Family members, without any visible movement, his body floated effortlessly onto the stage, exuding an aura as if he’s touched by divinity.

The audience burst into applause at once, and many who knew the elder were inwardly astounded.

This elder was the second-ranked expert of the Hu Family. His strength was comparable to that of the first-ranked expert in the Hu Family. Facing Li Changtian, he was definitely not inferior.

With him taking action personally, it showed how much the Hu Family valued Zhao Ping’an. As for the outcome of this battle, everyone didn’t even need to think about it; Zhao Ping’an stood no chance at all!

The people of Changtian Martial Arts Hall were clenching their fists too. They had lost, but they were even less willing to see Dewei Martial Arts Hall win. Otherwise, they would completely lose all their face.

Especially Li Siyuan, who was practically cursing through gritted teeth: "This fight, I hope that Zhao dies completely right here!"

Zhao Ping’an, on the stage, however, appeared completely calm. In fact, the power inside him was still surging wildly, continuously assaulting every part of his body. The pain had already left Zhao Ping’an no mind to care about what everyone was saying.

His one and only thought now, was to finish the three matches, win all three, and help Dewei Martial Arts Hall resolve this crisis. Then, even if it meant death, he didn’t care!

The elder surveyed Zhao Ping’an with one look up and down and said with a light smile, "Young man, truly concealing a good deal. The strength of Qi Cultivation Realm’s peak, and you’ve hidden it so deeply. It seems, we the Hu Family have really underestimated you. However, you’ve been too ruthless with your hands, causing such grievous harm to my nephew. Today, I must teach you a lesson on the ways of the world!"

The audience erupted into cheers, almost everyone overwhelmingly supporting the elder; nobody was rooting for Zhao Ping’an.

After all, Zhao Ping’an had no hope of winning, the Hu Family controlled the situation, it was a done deal. At this time, of course, everyone was thinking about how to curry favor with the Hu Family, who would care about Zhao Ping’an who was about to lose his life on the spot!

Zhao Ping’an clenched his teeth and looked at the elder, saying coldly, "If we’re going to fight, let’s fight, why all the unnecessary talk!"

The elder’s expression turned cold as he replied in a chilling tone, "I am many years your senior, and it is only right for me to teach you a lesson. You, child, not only lack manners but also lack decency. Today, I will teach you thoroughly and let you understand what it means to respect your elders!"
