Chapter 351: Chapter 349: Young Master Liu Shows His Might
"Hehe, Young Master Liu, not bad speed, but I was just testing earlier." After speaking, Zheng Kaikai suddenly bent down, his right foot moved slightly back, resembling an angry bull.
Suddenly, Zheng Kaikai exerted his strength, his body flew out like an arrow, his right fist gathered all its strength, retracting halfway, then rushed towards Liu Wenbin at high speed.
"Bang!"
This time, Liu Wenbin didn’t dodge; he wanted to test the opponent’s actual attack power, so the two clashed fists.
After a dull thud, the two were obviously both gripping their fists tightly, and both had a trembling feeling of pain. Chen Tianlong watched the scene and smiled wryly; it was clear that these two were almost evenly matched in strength, but it seemed Liu Wenbin was slightly superior.
"Pretty strong, but finally, I’ve met a good opponent." Zheng Kaikai always liked to smack-talk during a hit.
"Can you stop with the nonsense? If you want to fight, then fight, what are you rambling for?"
Originally, Liu Wenbin was still respectful, but after two rounds with no winner, he became anxious.
He knew well that his stamina wasn’t good; whenever he trained in the dojo, he couldn’t last more than a few rounds before tiring, which was his flaw.
Taking a deep breath, Liu Wenbin decided to take the initiative and not just keep getting hit.
"Hehe, alright then, don’t blame me for being rude."
It’s unclear if Zheng Kaikai was bluffing or had real skills; he stepped back three steps, then pressed his body downward and back.
Liu Wenbin was perplexed, unsure of what Zheng Kaikai was planning, so he remained on high alert. In situations like these where opponents were unfamiliar, forcing the attack doesn’t work; observation and summarization of experience were needed.
At that moment, Zheng Kaikai moved; the bending down earlier was just for a running start, and his intent was undoubtedly to jump higher.
"What is Zheng Kaikai up to? Is he going to jump up and kick me?" wondered Liu Wenbin.
However, before he could think more, Zheng Kaikai’s body started to charge forward. After three steps, he suddenly leaped into the air.
Sure enough, just as Liu Wenbin expected, Zheng Kaikai intended to do an airborne kick.
This leg technique was comparable to the Tang Sect’s Twelve Leg Kicks; although the airborne whirlwind triple-kick in Taekwondo was formidable, it depended on the opponent.
Liu Wenbin was the Taekwondo runner-up in South Sea City; clearly, Zheng Kaikai chose the wrong move, leading to his defeat.
Liu Wenbin had spent countless sleepless nights in the dojo to counter this airborne triple-kick, successfully mastering its counter.
At this moment, watching Zheng Kaikai’s agile figure, Liu Wenbin took a deep breath, the corner of his mouth curling into a sly smile. This subtle change made the keen observer Chen Tianlong’s heart shudder, realizing that Liu Wenbin was about to unleash his special move.
Suddenly, Liu Wenbin squatted halfway, making a preparation pose to leap up. When Zheng Kaikai’s body was only half a meter away, Liu Wenbin forcefully pushed off the ground, racing upward like a launched rocket.
Everyone in the audience’s gaze was fixed on Hao Jian, while Huang Zhong frowned; he never expected his buddy Zheng Kaikai’s airborne triple kick to be broken.
Judging from Liu Wenbin’s move, he must have leapt over Zheng Kaikai’s body, and in this uncontrollable aerial state, being attacked from above would certainly lead to defeat.
"Bang bang!"
Two continuous dull thuds sounded as Liu Wenbin executed an Eagle Step in the air, both feet landing squarely on Zhang Kaikai’s body, with Zheng Kaikai crashing onto the ring floor at high speed.
"Boom," nearly cracking the floor.
"Wow..."
A wave of astonishment swept through the audience, clearly shocked by the thrilling scene. Indeed, Liu Wenbin’s reputation was well-deserved.
His jump reached such a height equivalent to standing high jumps comparable to Jordan, even more powerful.
Chen Tianlong also took a deep breath; compared to Hao Jian, Liu Wenbin indeed had some substance. If they had to confront each other for real, it would indeed be quite pressuring.
"Damn, Young Master Liu really lives up to the title of the airborne ace. The Eagle Step countered the airborne triple kick perfectly," Kang Xiaohu finally found an opportunity to lavish praise.
"Yeah, Young Master Liu is truly majestic and domineering, deserving of being our school’s Crazy Young Master," echoed a few cronies nearby.
However, hearing this, Hao Jian felt differently.
While they praised Liu Wenbin, they belittled him.
Yet, under these circumstances, there was nothing he could say; after all, his representative Lin Yu was taken down just like that, and he had to swallow the grievance.
After landing, Zheng Kaikai was clearly heavily injured; the move itself was risky. He wanted to defeat Liu Wenbin with one move but ended up getting taken down with one move instead.
Even if he could get up to fight again, it was a guaranteed loss.
If he hadn’t been injured, the two could have at least tied, but with such a blow, beating Liu Wenbin seemed impossible.
Zheng Kaikai’s gaze shifted to Huang Zhong’s face, who nodded to him, indicating he should step down. Even if he lost, it was only temporarily a tie, with Huang Zhong stepping in next, victory was inevitable.
He knew how formidable his buddy Huang Zhong was. Besides a few elders in the Huang Family, Huang Zhong was the strongest.
Training in the Martial Arts Dojo since he was a child, even on weekends and evenings, after so many years, and under the tutelage of renowned martial arts coaches in the Capital City, his prowess was nearly that of an Ancient Martial Artist.
All he lacked was an opportunity to step into the cultivator tier.
Zheng Kaikai stood up, made a respectful gesture to Liu Wenbin, and then stepped off the stage. Since he’d lost, being courteous might leave an impression of magnanimity to the students.
Indeed, seeing Zhang Kaikai’s actions, thunderous applause erupted from the audience. Huang Zhong smiled appreciatively, joining in.
After all, the next match was crucial, and with Zheng Kaikai’s popularity, Huang Zhong naturally received more support, preventing outright rejection.
He’d come from afar to stir up trouble, bound to be underestimated by the home crowd, but now, the situation seemed to turn slightly.
"Liu Wenbin wins! Now the next match will be the final one, determining win or loss, and the mysterious Fifth Crazy Young Master everyone eagerly awaits will soon appear—are you all excited?"
Even Student Council President Zhang Liang didn’t know who the Fifth Crazy Young Master was; he was excited, eager to see for himself.
"Yes!"
The crowd responded in unison.
Originally, the appearance of the Fifth Crazy Young Master should have been the school’s misfortune, but now everyone was clearly looking forward to it; what kind of situation was this?
