Gao Wu: From a poor man in the outer city to a martial saint of the ten directions

Where some are happy, others are naturally sad.

At the same time, everyone on the dome cheered.

Behind them, in the players' rest area not far away.

Huo Quan's expression at that moment was absolutely priceless!

His face first turned bright red, then suddenly turned deathly pale, and the muscles in his face twitched uncontrollably!

"How could he possibly beat Shen Gui? That crazy woman is someone even I...!"

"What gives him the right?!"

Shock, jealousy, fear, disbelief...!

A mix of emotions contorted his features so much they were almost a grotesque mess!

As the audience erupted in cheers, Liu Song finally led Dr. Song Nian from the dome and several medical staff onto the stage.

After squatting down next to Shen Gui and examining him for a while, Song Nian stood up and nodded expressionlessly.

"It's nothing, just a mild concussion and some exhaustion. I've just passed out."

At this moment, Shen Gui was nowhere to be seen with any of his previous arrogance.

That once delicate oval face is now covered in bruises, and her right cheek and forehead are swollen, making her look pitiful.

Upon hearing this, Liu Song nodded and gestured for the medical staff to carry Shen Gui away.

After confirming that the loser was alright, he turned around again, his complex gaze fixed on Wei Xiu, who was panting heavily.

As a senior member of the Martial Arts Alliance, I have seen countless geniuses.

But like the young man before us, who, with sheer grit and an extremely solid foundation, forcefully overcame the barriers of martial arts levels to defeat his opponent…

It's definitely no more than a handful!

Liu Song took a deep breath, and his loud voice instantly drowned out the noise of the entire venue.

"In this match, Wei Xiu of the Dome Martial Arts School emerges victorious!"

boom!

Another cheer erupted from the dome!

But Liu Song did not step down immediately. Instead, he raised his hand and pressed it down, and then announced a result that surprised everyone!

"Given that in this competition, Chi Wu contestant Shen Gui demonstrated martial arts skills far exceeding those of ordinary apprentices!"

"And Wei Xiu, the player from the Dome, fought while injured, demonstrating exceptional adaptability in combat and unwavering willpower to achieve a comeback victory against a player of a higher level, showcasing an outstanding performance!"

Liu Song paused for a moment, then slowly announced under the tense gazes of everyone:

"After careful consideration by the referee team, it is hereby announced that Wei Xiu will be awarded three points!"

The shockwaves caused by these words were three times greater than before!

"Three points added directly?! Holy crap, that's like getting three points in one game compared to theirs?!"

"That's practically a guaranteed spot in tomorrow's knockout stage! That's incredibly awesome!"

"Huo Quan worked so hard for three games to get three points, while Wei Xiu got the maximum in just one game! This is way more impressive!"

The students' discussions rose and fell, and their gazes toward Wei Xiu had completely turned into awe!

Last night, Wei Xiu defeated Huang Feng by risking his life and catching him off guard.

But tonight's face-to-face humiliation followed by a direct knockout can't be explained by luck!

From tonight onwards, the name Wei Xiu will likely be known to everyone in the martial arts circles of Linghai City!

Upon hearing these comments, Huo Quan, who was sitting in the rest area, felt a surge of blood rushing to his chest and a sweet taste in his throat. He almost spat out a mouthful of blood on the spot!

God of War!

Damn it... this should have been mine!

But Wei Xiu, at the center of the storm, had no interest in paying attention to all this commotion.

Despite his injured body, he forced himself to practice the Tiger-Taming Fist, which he had only practiced a few times. At this moment, almost every muscle in his body was screaming in agony!

However, he couldn't just collapse on the stage. Taking a deep breath, Wei Xiu lifted the netting and stepped off the stage.

The students who had been gathered below the dome suddenly crowded in front of Wei Xiu.

"Junior Brother Wei Xiu! You fought brilliantly!"

"Brother Wei, from now on you're my real brother! Teach me how to be stubborn!"

Just as Wei Xiu was struggling to stand due to the crowd, a clear, cold voice suddenly broke through.

"Alright, everyone disperse and let him catch his breath."

Sun Na pushed through the crowd and walked over. The aura of the senior sister on the second floor was imposing and dignified, instantly silencing all the students.

"Why aren't you preparing for the upcoming match? What are you doing here making a scene?"

Seeing this, everyone quickly shrank back, forced a dry laugh, and dispersed.

Lin Qi seized the opportunity to slip in, grabbed Wei Xiu's right arm, and grinned with a mixture of heartache and excitement!

"Old Wei, you're a god! Not bad, you didn't embarrass your captain!"

"Come on, come on, let's get to the infirmary right now! You're bleeding so much it makes me dizzy!"

Sun Na also stepped forward, standing on either side of Lin Qi, protecting Wei Xiu as they walked towards the infirmary.

In the blink of an eye, another pair of students started fighting on the stage, and the noise continued.

But Li Bulong, standing below the stage, paid no attention to his own students; his gaze followed Wei Xiu as he left.

This usually tough and rugged man was now filled with sighs.

"Old Li, why the long face?"

Before anyone knew it, the owner of the museum, Zhao Jiuhai, had come down from upstairs, walked to Li Bulong's side with his hands behind his back, and smiled as he looked in the direction Wei Xiu had left.

"How was it? Did you get any feeling from that last performance?"

Li Bulong came to his senses and nodded with a wry smile.

"It felt so good!"

"Master, I finally admit I'm getting old."

Li Bulong shook his head again, his face still showing lingering shock.

"This kid...is way better than I was back then!"

"Oh? What do you mean?" Zhao Jiuhai raised an eyebrow.

"Back then, I also chose Tiger-Taming Fist as my first martial art," Li Bulong recalled, a complex look flashing in his eyes.

"But I couldn't continue practicing after reaching the second level. The pressure that fist technique exerted on the body and will was simply unreasonable. I couldn't bear that kind of torment, so I eventually switched to practicing the Thunderclap Fist."

"But this Wei Xiu, he only learned the Tiger-Taming Fist yesterday, and he used it directly in today's actual combat!"

Looking around the corner where the figure had disappeared, Li Bulong sighed again.

"Although his transitions were still a bit clumsy, and a few punches went astray, he managed to throw over a dozen punches until he completely knocked his opponent down without changing his moves!"

"This mindset, this absolute control over the body..."

"Given time, his achievements in martial arts will definitely surpass mine!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Bulong put his hands behind his back, as if this was the highest praise he could give.

But Zhao Jiuhai, standing to the side, narrowed his eyes and said something that almost made Li Bulong's jaw drop!

"Heh... Just you? I think our Commissioner Hongyu's vision is a bit narrow-minded..."

……

On the other side, in the medical room of the dome-shaped martial arts school.

"hiss……!"

With a sharp pain, Wei Xiu on the hospital bed immediately closed his eyes.

Before he could even catch his breath, a pair of warm, rubber-gloved hands pried his eyelids open again.

"Check your pupils, and make sure your hands aren't covering your body. You're already in the elimination rounds, and I need to make sure you can compete normally tomorrow."

As Song Nian spoke, she pried Wei Xiu's hands to the side again; the doctor's tone left no room for refusal.

At this moment, Wei Xiu, who was only wearing a pair of black shorts, had no choice but to awkwardly spread his arms, revealing his well-defined, muscular body covered with bruises and bluish-purple marks.
