Chapter 841: Chapter 841: One Punch
Will Long Zhiming make a move?
The crowd present was guessing, and most believed that Long Zhiming would not stand idly by. After all, Long Xunhai was a member of the Long Family, and having lost to a foreigner, it was not only a loss of face for himself but also for the Long Family.
As the most outstanding Martial Arts Talent of this generation in the Long Family, it was only natural for Long Zhiming to step forward and redeem the family’s honor.
Ling Zhongri and two others were eagerly hoping that Long Zhiming would take action. As long as Long Zhiming made a move, Fang Lin was destined to lose without a doubt, and they could also vent their frustration.
Dugu Nian and Mo Yun were extremely worried, Long Zhiming was too strong, ranked among the top five hundred on the Talent list, his strength unfathomable.
For Fang Lin to face him, the chances of winning were indeed slim.
“Big brother Zhiming, I lost,” Long Xunhai said to Long Zhiming with some embarrassment.
Long Zhiming nodded, then stood up, rejuvenating the spirits of everyone present, thinking Long Zhiming was about to make a move.
“I once had a brief encounter with Zhou Yishui,” Long Zhiming suddenly said.
Fang Lin’s eyebrows knitted slightly, unsure of what Long Zhiming meant by this. What did it matter if he had met Zhou Yishui before?
“What are you trying to say?” Fang Lin said indifferently.
Long Zhiming smiled faintly, “He wanted to challenge me but was defeated by me in three moves. I originally thought he would participate in this Talent battle of the Nine Countries, but it turns out he has already died by your hand.”
Upon hearing this, Fang Lin was expressionless, even the corners of his mouth curled into a faint smile.
“It seems we’re quite similar. I defeated Zhou Yishui with a single punch,” Fang Lin said, his words causing a stir.
Long Zhiming also smiled, “I’ve heard of your deeds, and I admire them greatly. Not everyone has the courage to engage with someone like the Xuan Emperor. Can you tell me why the Xuan Emperor has fallen?”
Fang Lin shook his head, “Sorry, I have nothing to share.”
Long Zhiming’s smile faded, and he returned to a cold demeanor, “As a member of the Long Family, today, even if I don’t wish to, I must make a move. You better be ready.”
Fang Lin shrugged, “If we’re going to fight, then let’s fight. Words are useless.”
Upon hearing this, the members of the Long Family all sneered.
The others present also looked at Fang Lin with peculiar expressions. Had this guy not heard of Long Zhiming’s reputation? His nonchalance—was it the ignorance of the fearless, or did he truly have something to rely on?
Mo Yun had a worried look and advised in a low voice, “Fang Lin, this man is not someone we can contend with, perhaps it’s better to step back for now.”
Dugu Nian also said, “Right, if you lose, wouldn’t that be very embarrassing?”
Fang Lin smiled and said, “No worries, I have my own measure.”
Long Zhiming looked at Fang Lin and spoke in a usual tone, “My realm is much higher than yours, so I will not bully you with my strength. As long as you can withstand a single punch from me, I will not make things difficult for you. However, if you can’t withstand it and get injured, you can’t blame me.”
“Deserving of Long Zhiming, such integrity is admirable.”
“He’s not bullying the weak, indeed the Descendants of the Long Family are extraordinary.”
“Just don’t know if Fang Lin can withstand a punch from Long Zhiming.”
…
Some people sang praises, feeling that Long Zhiming had good grace, while few had faith in Fang Lin’s ability to withstand a punch from Long Zhiming.
After all, Long Zhiming had already stepped into the Spirit Vein realm for many years and was said to be preparing to strike at the Spirit Bone. Now he had even shone brilliantly in the Talent battle of the Nine Countries, powerfully breaking into the top five hundred. Many were guessing that in the second phase of the Talent battle, Long Zhiming’s rank would advance even further, possibly stepping into the top two hundred.
And Fang Lin? Despite his astonishing combat achievements, he was merely at the Heavenly Origin level, not even ranked within the top five thousand of the Talent list. How could he possibly compare with Long Zhiming?
“No, no, this won’t do,” Fang Lin shook his head repeatedly, seemingly in strong disagreement with Long Zhiming’s approach.
“Haha, this guy’s chickening out.”
“It seems he knows his limits.”
“Indeed, even if it’s just one punch from Brother Zhiming, he wouldn’t be able to take it.”
…
“Do you not dare?” Long Zhiming spoke indifferently.
Fang Lin continued to shake his head, “I just feel that’s too boring. How about we make a bet on something instead?”
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present was stunned. Had Fang Lin lost his mind? He actually wanted to gamble with Long Zhiming?
“Oh? Interesting, how do you want to bet?” Long Zhiming also revealed a trace of amusement as he spoke.
Without a moment’s hesitation, Fang Lin said, “If I take your punch, how about you give me a treasure?”
“And what if you can’t take it?” Long Zhiming asked in return.
Fang Lin looked quizzically at Long Zhiming, “If I can’t take it, won’t I have been injured by you? What more do you want? If you injure me and still expect a treasure from me, that’s just being too greedy.”
The crowd went silent, wondering who exactly was the greedy one here. Daring to scheme against Long Zhiming? Barefoot Fang Lin had nothing to lose – win or lose the bet, at most he’d be injured and lose nothing.
“No, if you can’t take my punch, you must also give me a treasure,” Long Zhiming declared.
Fang Lin looked disdainfully at Long Zhiming, “You are a Talent of the Long Family, why be so petty? One should be more magnanimous.”
“Fine, but like this, I won’t hold back my punch. I will use all my strength, so get ready,” Long Zhiming said, his eyes sharpening, his entire demeanor like an unsheathed sword, edges laid bare.
Fang Lin clicked his tongue and activated the Demon Bone within him. Instantly, his body was enveloped in a Kylin battle armor.
“Hmm? The aura of a Demon Bone?” Upon seeing this, Long Zhiming showed a hint of surprise and became more interested.
“Come on, I’m ready,” Fang Lin gestured to Long Zhiming with a wave of his hand.
Long Zhiming’s expression was calm, his right fist raised slowly.
But in the next moment, a shadow of a dragon-elephant roared forth, carrying a dragon-elephant’s roar that shook the entire Wuji Battle Temple.
“This fist, it’s my Long Family’s secret technique, the Dragon-Elephant Shaking Heaven Fist!” Long Zhiming announced. Even without releasing the punch, its might was already incredibly imposing.
Boom!!!!
With that punch, the wind and thunder moved; a True Dragon and a colossal elephant phantom swirled around, following Long Zhiming’s strike.
Seeing Long Zhiming deploy the Long Family’s secret technique, the members of the Long Family present were exhilarated, loudly cheering and applauding for Long Zhiming.
Others who witnessed this scene were deeply shaken, inwardly admiring Long Zhiming as a Martial Arts Talent of the Long Family. The sheer power of this one punch was enough to sweep through most martial artists with a Spirit Vein.
Fang Lin also displayed a hint of surprise and didn’t dare to underestimate it, preparing to face it with all his might.
The power of the Kylin Demon Bone unleashed, charging towards the dragon-elephant punch.
Boom, rumble!!!!
This was an immensely shocking collision. The whole Wuji Battle Temple seemed to tremble, and everyone present had to use their full strength to block the aftershocks, to avoid being affected.
