Chapter 265 -262 Dead!
Liu Shan’s face was a mix of dark and changing moods as he glanced at Le Yuanchen, who had swollen one cheek and collapsed, unconscious on the ground. He finally spoke, “We’ve lost this match at the First Layer, but the competition has just started.”
Although they had lost the first round, Le Yuanchen had managed to challenge and defeat two ordinary disciples earlier. Even those in the know could tell that Le Yuanchen had barely expended any effort against those previous two opponents. At least on the surface, it looked better.
‘The second match, we cannot afford to lose again.’
He turned his head and quietly instructed the disciple about to enter the stage to stay alert and give his all.
Soon, two Awakeners leaped onto the platform, one carried the unconscious disciple from the Martial Arts Hall down, while the other stood straight in the ring.

“This here is a Second-tier disciple from One Punch Martial Arts Hall. Who is the representative disciple from your Extreme Martial Arts Hall?”
Seeing the young girl from One Punch Martial Arts Hall still standing on the stage perplexed Liu Shan.
Xia Wanru looked across at the young disciple on the opposite side, feeling the air of strength much greater than her own. However, she did not show any fear and took a step forward, “I am the representative disciple!”
Liu Shan was about to speak.
But the other side’s Shay, with a smile, said, “Don’t be so surprised. It’s just a cross-tier battle. Xia is our Second-tier representative. As long as you can win this match, we will concede defeat in the Second-tier competition.”
Liu Shan let out a cold huff but did not reject.
The onlookers from the Martial Arts Hall below, as well as the other real spectators, did not expect this turn of events.
Mouths agape, several melon seeds spilled from between their teeth.
“Is this a joke? A cross-tier challenge?!”
“Cross-tier fighting… I’ve seen it before, but usually, those who are challenged are those with ranks but no practical combat ability—useless. To challenge a Core Apprentice of One Punch Martial Arts Hall, this…”
“Extreme Martial Arts Hall must be getting cocky. They barely managed an equal fight against a First Layer student, scraping by a victory only in the end. And now they challenge a Second-tier student from One Punch Martial Arts Hall, whose combat skills are top-notch. This seems rather rash.”
“In my opinion, Extreme Martial Arts Hall has no other choice. Didn’t you see they only have two Core Apprentices? Even if both of them win, they’ll only have two victories. For best out of five, they still need another win. Cross-tier challenge probably is their only option.”
An analyst chimed in, “As for the other general disciples, just look at the previous fights. It’s clear these individuals are not on the same level as the Core Apprentices of the Martial Arts Hall. After all, the Awakeners who go to the Martial Arts Hall for advancement are generally lacking in combat skills. The real experts are mostly honing their skills in wild battles.”
“Holy shit—”
Someone shouted.
On the platform, the young disciple from One Punch Martial Arts Hall, facing the girl a tier below him, took the initiative, sweeping a roundhouse kick through the air towards Xia Wanru.
The strength of a Second-tier wasn’t that impressive; most of the Awakeners present possessed Second-tier or higher capabilities.
Yet, this roundhouse kick carried a whistling wind, making the faces of the onlookers on the edge of the platform change.
Thump!
The sound of a heavy blow.
Xia Wanru’s body sank; her hands came up in guard, diverting the force to one side, then she continued to retreat several steps back.
She appeared to be at a disadvantage.
However, this scene shocked everyone present.
“She blocked it, how is that possible! Even with deflection techniques, that kick was powerful, and there’s a qualitative difference in strength between them. How could she have received it?!”
The young disciple from One Punch Martial Arts Hall was also shocked, but he did not freeze. He kicked out continuously, unleashing a barrage of attacks like a raging storm.
Xia Wanru fought while retreating, seemingly at a disadvantage but sustaining little damage. Facing each kick, she either blocked it or dodged it.
Around them.
Some of the more insightful Awakeners had already seen the trick, “Her strength, her speed, it’s too much for a Peak First Layer Awakener. Compared to her opponent, she’s slightly weaker, but not by a wide margin. That’s why she can withstand his attacks time after time!”
Spoken so bluntly,
passersby Awakeners, as well as the disciples from Extreme Martial Arts Hall itself, suddenly turned their gaze towards the edge of the ring, where Shay stood with a grin on his face, and they realized something in their hearts.
Extreme Martial Arts Hall had a method to swiftly enhance physical fitness!
For a moment, whether they were disciples of Extreme Martial Arts Hall or not, their look at Shay became fervent.
Liu Shan, seeing this, secretly gritted his teeth.
The purpose of their challenge was to hype up One Punch Martial Arts Hall and showcase its strength, but damn it, how did it turn into an opportunity for Extreme Martial Arts Hall to show off instead?!
Liu Shan looked towards the ring and suddenly shouted loudly, “Win this round, and I have the authority to reward you with two standard bottles of soul power!”
Soul power containers were also available at Luoxia, produced officially, and the capacities of these bottles were consistent.
A container filled with soul power, its total amount of soul power is that of a standard bottle.
Two standard bottles,
having refined this substantial amount of soul power was enough to enable a Second-tier Awakener to be directly promoted to the third layer.
On the stage.
Both were panting heavily.
Xia Wanru, even more exhausted, was drenched in sweat, her loose sportswear clinging tightly to her exquisite figure.
At that moment, the young disciple from One Punch Martial Arts Hall, hearing Liu Shan’s words, a ruthless look flashed in his eyes, his punches became harsher, each strike aimed at lethal spots.
Xia Wanru kept retreating, now backed to the edge of the ring.
Suddenly, the young disciple took a slight step back; his right leg lifted slightly in a bizarre posture, his figure shimmered, his left foot stomped heavily on the ground, and he leaped into the air, his right foot shooting out while airborne.
This kick, fiercer, faster, more vicious.
It was as if even the air would be torn apart, his toe aimed straight for Xia Wanru’s temple, shooting towards it.
But at that moment, the girl from Extreme Martial Arts Hall had no more room to retreat!
The watching crowd, some couldn’t help but close their eyes, while a few knowledgeable experts suddenly widened their eyes, staring intently, as if they wanted to discern something from the young man’s movement.
Whoosh~
His toe tore through the air but did not feel the contact of kicking a human body—his heartbeat missed a beat as the Xia Wanru in front of him seemingly lacked the ability to dodge, but her body had suddenly shifted half a meter to the side.
That half meter made his attack miss completely.
The unrestrained kick also caused him to lean forward uncontrollably, losing his balance.
Seizing the opportunity, Xia Wanru let out a low shout, an ordinary punch exploded forth, yet it mobilized all the qi and blood, strength, from her entire body, spreading inch by inch upwards through her arm.
Boom!
Like a watermelon bursting open.
The hard skull was shattered by this seemingly inconspicuous punch.
The entire first-layer hall fell silent in an instant.
…
On the stage, Xia Wanru kneeled halfway to the ground, looking at the headless corpse that lay close at hand, covering her mouth, panting.
Her gaze did not leave the headless body; the fear in her eyes gradually dissipated, turning into determination.
