Chapter 78: Overwhelming
Seeing this scene, the people around were momentarily stunned, unsure of what had just happened.
Why did Xiong Ba Hu suddenly call out a spectator to come on stage?
Moreover, judging by his expression, he seemed quite serious.
Fang Yu looked at Xiong Ba Hu and then glanced at the two men behind him.
“Who are those two behind Xiong Ba Hu?” Fang Yu asked Li Xiaomo.
“One is Li Zhengrong, and the other is the bald guy. They are the two major powerhouses in the underground of Jianghai City…” Li Xiaomo replied.
Li Zhengrong?
Although Fang Yu had already fought with Li Zhengrong’s subordinates twice, it was his first time seeing Li Zhengrong in person.
“Li Zhengrong is here… and Xiong Ba Hu is actively looking for me…” Fang Yu frowned slightly, looking at Li Xiaomo, his eyes shifting.
Li Xiaomo seemed to sense Fang Yu’s thoughts and said anxiously, “Mr. Fang, I didn’t expect to encounter Li Zhengrong and the bald guy here either…”
“Kid, I’m calling you up to the stage!” Xiong Ba Hu on the martial arts platform fixed his fierce gaze on Fang Yu.
At this moment, the surrounding guests finally came to their senses.
Xiong Ba Hu meant to challenge this person from the audience?
Everyone looked at Fang Yu, only to find that he was just a thin, ordinary-looking young man.
Xiong Ba Hu wanted to duel with such a young man?
Isn’t that too much of a bully?
“Master Xiong, may I ask you…” At this moment, the host rushed over to ask.
“I want to fight again, and my opponent is this kid.” Xiong Ba Hu grinned, pointing at Fang Yu.
The host looked at Fang Yu, his expression changing slightly, and said, “Master Xiong, we need to get this guest’s consent for this situation…”
“No need! I said he has to come up, so he must come up.” Xiong Ba Hu’s right eye revealed only brutality and cruelty.
The host’s expression changed, and he dared not speak further.
Seeing Xiong Ba Hu’s expression, the surrounding guests felt a chill in their hearts.
Ordinary people would be scared to the point of trembling if Xiong Ba Hu pointed at them like this and called them up.
Everyone looked at Fang Yu, wanting to know how he would react.
Fang Yu stood up, looking at Xiong Ba Hu, and said, “How much did you take from someone else?”
Xiong Ba Hu was momentarily taken aback, then his eyes narrowed, and he said in a deep voice, “What does it have to do with you? Hurry up and get on stage!”
Li Xiaomo, pale-faced, leaned closer to Fang Yu and whispered, “Mr. Fang, I’ll notify my subordinates to come over now. We need to find a chance to escape; you think of a way to stall…”
“Kid, talking quietly in front of me, do you think I’m hard of hearing?” Xiong Ba Hu looked at Li Xiaomo and chuckled, saying, “Tonight, you’re also one of my targets. Once I deal with this kid, you won’t be able to run either.”
Seeing the evil in Xiong Ba Hu’s eyes, Li Xiaomo turned pale.
She had miscalculated tonight; she never expected to encounter Li Zhengrong and the bald guy here, let alone that Xiong Ba Hu would be bought off by those two.
The situation was very critical; she had no subordinates around, only a driver waiting for her outside.
This underground martial arts arena could be said to be Xiong Ba Hu’s territory. As soon as he gave the order, no one could easily leave.
Just as Li Xiaomo was feeling anxious and thinking of a countermeasure, a sudden uproar erupted around them.
Li Xiaomo looked up and found that Fang Yu had already walked onto the martial arts platform.
“Damn, who is this kid? He really dares to go on stage?”
“With that little frame of his, I bet he’ll be slapped to death by Xiong Ba Hu!”
“This… I don’t even want to watch; I feel like his body will be smashed to pieces…”
The people in the underground martial arts arena were shocked, discussing among themselves.
Li Zhengrong and the bald guy, who had already stepped down from the stage, looked at Fang Yu standing on the martial arts platform with mocking expressions.
“Boss Li, this kid doesn’t seem very smart either. Xiong Ba Hu calls him up, and he just goes up. If it were me, I’d find a way to escape,” the bald guy sneered.
Li Zhengrong shook his head and said, “The common flaw of young people is arrogance; he probably thinks he can defeat Master Xiong.”
The host looked at Fang Yu, his face filled with shock, and asked, “Sir… are you sure you want to…”
“Just announce the start of the match; no need for so many words.” Xiong Ba Hu glared at the host, making him shiver.
The host dared not ask further and picked up the microphone, shouting, “The next match will be between Master Xiong and… an unknown young man. I declare the match begins!”
After shouting, the host quickly ran off the martial arts platform.
The surrounding audience was stunned for a moment, then erupted into cheers.
Although they didn’t know why Xiong Ba Hu suddenly called a young man from the audience up, for them, being able to see another match with Xiong Ba Hu was a bonus.
Typically, Xiong Ba Hu would fight at most once a night, and then it would be several days before he appeared again.
Although Xiong Ba Hu’s opponent looked very weak this time, most people didn’t care.
Over the past two years, Xiong Ba Hu had easily defeated any opponent he faced. It could be said that everyone enjoyed watching Xiong Ba Hu’s matches because they liked the feeling of him casually crushing his opponents.
“Master Xiong, teach this young man a lesson! Make him think twice before coming up again!”
“Think twice? Against Master Xiong, where’s the chance for a second time?”
The crowd began to shout.
On the martial arts platform, Xiong Ba Hu looked at Fang Yu with a mocking gaze.
In his eyes, Fang Yu was just a fragile little kid.
“Kid, if you want to blame someone, blame yourself for offending me…” Xiong Ba Hu said.
But before he could finish, Fang Yu walked towards him.
“Hahaha… this is the first time I’ve seen someone wanting to die early; then I’ll help you!” Xiong Ba Hu said, his eyes suddenly turning fierce as he took a big step forward.
His muscles were tense, veins bulging, and he raised his fist, smashing it towards Fang Yu’s face!
The power of this punch was visually shocking!
Moreover, Xiong Ba Hu’s fist was almost the same size as Fang Yu’s face!
A gasp erupted from the crowd.
If this punch landed, wouldn’t this young man be sent straight to meet the King of Hell?
This scene was too bloody!
Many people closed their eyes, unable to bear to watch.
Li Xiaomo was even more frightened, her body trembling as she quickly turned her face away.
Xiong Ba Hu’s eyes were filled with cruelty; he wanted to kill Fang Yu with one punch, ensuring he couldn’t leave the martial arts platform!
But in the next second, his expression changed.
“Bang!”
Fang Yu stood in place, raising his left palm to catch Xiong Ba Hu’s punch.
This punch had at least sixty percent of Xiong Ba Hu’s strength behind it!
Yet Fang Yu caught it so easily, and from his expression, he seemed very relaxed!
A wave of gasps erupted around.
“Damn, I can’t believe my eyes; this young man blocked Master Xiong’s punch with just one hand…”
“The most terrifying part is that he looks extremely relaxed; his expression hasn’t even changed…”
Hearing the voices around him, Li Xiaomo turned her head to look at Fang Yu on the martial arts platform, her beautiful eyes filled with excitement!
If Fang Yu could defeat Xiong Ba Hu, then her previous worries would be unfounded.
Looking at Fang Yu’s nonchalant expression, especially the gasps from the audience, Xiong Ba Hu felt humiliated!
At any time, the cheers and gasps from the audience should be for him!
He absolutely would not allow anyone to steal his spotlight!
“Kid, die for me!” Xiong Ba Hu roared, gathering a faint purple energy in his left fist and smashing it towards Fang Yu!
Faint purple energy?
Fang Yu’s eyes shifted slightly as he also punched out.
“Bang!”
With a loud explosion, Xiong Ba Hu staggered back several steps before he could steady himself.
His expression was one of shock as he looked at Fang Yu, disbelief filling his eyes.
How is this possible?
With Fang Yu’s physique, how could he possess such immense strength?
The audience below, witnessing this scene, was already dumbfounded.
They never expected that the young man fighting Xiong Ba Hu not only didn’t crumble as they had imagined but was actually gaining the upper hand!
Li Xiaomo had already stood up, her gaze fixed on Fang Yu on the martial arts platform, her beautiful eyes filled with excitement.
This is the talent she and the Qingyan Society needed!
She had only heard about it before, but now she was certain!
No matter what it takes, she must persuade Fang Yu to join the Qingyan Society!
Meanwhile, on the other side, Li Zhengrong and the bald guy had ashen faces.
“What’s going on!? What’s happening!?” Li Zhengrong looked at the bald guy, his eyes reddening as he questioned.
