World's Best Martial Artist

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

On the arena.

Yang Xiaoman stared at Han Xu and gritted her teeth. ‘Shouldn’t Han Xu be the one restraining Fang Ping?’

‘Fine. I’ll destroy him today so he won’t step on the arena again, let alone restraining anyone!’

Although she was reluctant to admit, Fang Ping was indeed the strongest in MCMAU. Once Han Xu was defeated, Fang Ping’s chances of winning would be even higher.

Once the referee announced the start of the match, Yang Xiaoman immediately sprinted toward Han Xu.

Although Han Xu’s eyes were extremely swollen, he could still see partially.

When he saw that Yang Xiaoman was aiming for close combat, Han Xu went berserk.

Since the start of the fight with Martial Arts University Alliance, he had been the target of everyone’s fury. Even with his strong abilities, the fights have taken a toll on him.

Fu Changding lost previously, and his injuries were worse than his.

However, he had bashed Han Xu’s eyes until they were red and swollen. Han Xu felt nothing but unbearable stinging. This irritated him even more.

Yang Xiaoman was getting nearer. This time, Han Xu did not avoid!

The next moment, Yang Xiaoman’s iron fist aimed straight for his face!

Han Xu grew even more annoyed. He went on a rampage. With both hands, he grabbed Yang Xiaoman’s fists directly. He specifically honed his lower limbs and was a thrice-honed. He did not need to rely on weapons to unleash his powers!

Clenching Yang Xiaoman’s fist mercilessly, Han Xu directly the energy to his legs and swept his right leg outward ferociously!

Yang Xiaoman was fearless. She raised her leg and kicked immediately. Instead of defending, she aimed for his private part!

“Bastard!”

The CCMAU guys outside of the area could not help but curse loudly. Were all the MCMAU ladies so f*cking savage?

Attacking the private parts had become their signature moves!

Han Xu was more composed this time. He pressed his legs together and sandwiched her leg!

He gave a slight snort. This tactic might work on Wei Shujie, but not on him.

He was not blind. His vision was just slightly blurry when he tried to see.

As Han Xu was lost in his sea of thoughts, both of their limbs were already tangled together. There was almost no distance between them.

Yang Xiaoman did not struggle too much. In an unexpected twist, she viciously thrust her head forward!

Bang!

The sound made was especially deafening!

The next moment, their limbs parted. Yang Xiaoman swayed a few steps. Blood painted her forehead.

Han Xu, on the other hand, fared even worse. He staggered in his steps and slanted drunkenly in one direction.

The three lower ranks did not hone the skull!

His face had already been punched a few times by Fu Changding. He was lucky that he did not die from the impact of Yang Xiaoman’s headbutt!

…

Outside of the arena.

“Female martial artists…”

Many people grumbled exasperatedly. Female martial artists were lunatics. Do not even think about marrying female martial artists!

A few instructors on the second floor wore looks of horror.

Since when did the ladies in the team behave so viciously?

They already knew that Zhao Xuemei was ferocious.

However, Yang Xiaoman was never this brutal, right?

The collision of their heads did not happen rashly. Han Xu was not feeling too well, neither was Yang Xiaoman. Was this lady not afraid of disfiguring herself?

…

Behind the arena, Fang Ping tucked in his chin and felt slightly uncomfortable. That lady had better not do the same to him one day.

Clearly, Yang Xiaoman did not do it at the spur of the moment. She had entangled her opponent’s limbs on purpose to pull off the attack.

…

“MCMAU female members…”

“What an excellent competition!” Chen Xueyan declared, interrupting Liu Huarong. “Female martial artists are not weaker than men!”

Seeing her eagerness, Liu Huarong gave a nervous laugh and cautiously stepped away from her. It seemed like female martial artists were mostly lunatics.

As they were speaking, Yang Xiaoman had also slowly regained her senses. She dashed toward Han Xu once again!

At this moment, Han Xu was also recovering slightly, though the pain in his head was still excruciating.

The spear that he had put down just now was once again in his hands. Han Xu did not employ the spear anymore, but pulled out his longsword and stabbed at Yang Xiaoman.

Yang Xiaoman did not avoid it at all!

Clenching both fists, she grabbed the longsword and allowed the stab to penetrate. The sharp end of the sword pierced her shoulder. She was once again in front of Han Xu, and her head thrust forward!

“F*ck!”

Han Xu was beyond himself with rage. He could not stop himself from cursing!

‘How could someone compete like this?

‘Wasn’t Zhao Lei the one who knew the headbutt technique?

‘Yang Xiaoman, could a lady like you not do this!’

As he fumed, Yang Xiaoman forcefully grabbed hold of his sword. Her scapula was injured. She would never give him a chance to run away.

Bang!

A hollow bang was heard once again.

This time, Han Xu could no longer stand it. He took a few steps back while covering his head. He felt extremely giddy and was seeing stars.

More blood emerged on Yang Xiaoman’s forehead. She looked malicious.

Even though she took the initiative to ram heads, her head was still much clearer than Han Xu’s.

Once Han Xu took a step back, Yang Xiaoman closed in and charged like a ferocious tiger!

Hearing her movements, Han Xu backed up and avoided hastily. Even so, his vision was impaired. Soon, Yang Xiaoman caught up to him once again!

Yang Xiaoman was even more aggressive this time: She did not even grab hold of the sword, allowing the longsword to pierce through her shoulder, and used her head to headbutt again!

Han Xu was losing his mind. He tilted his head backward hurriedly.

Immediately after, Yang Xiaoman exposed her true intentions. She kicked his private part with all her might!

“Bastard!”

Han Xu quickly tightened up his legs and sandwiched her long leg. However, either he was too late, or he was kicked, as a mixture of sweat and blood seeped through Han Xu’s head and flowed profusely across his face.

Yang Xiaoman did not feel so good herself. Blood poured from her shoulder. Even so, her ferociousness did not dissipate. She grabbed his shoulders with both hands and bashed heads again!

Bang!

The third time. Both of their heads collided.

This time, Yang Xiaoman fell with her head raised.

Han Xu staggered for a moment and fell to the bottom from the edge of the arena. Apart from his heaving chest, he was motionless.

…

“This… this competition is like no other…”

Liu Huarong commented prosaically. Then, he added, “Anyway, the MCMAU members definitely have strong willpower. Compared to the men, this lady Yang Xiaoman was even more…”

He wanted to say savage, but it did not seem to be appropriate.

Chen Xueyan grinned, a rare sight. She opened her mouth and said, “This is how female martial artists should be. MCMAU female martial artists fight exceptionally! Very straightforward!

“Yang Xiaoman was no match to Han Xu, but he had used up a huge amount of Vitality in the previous fight.

“Yang Xiaoman’s speed was also slower than his. However, she did not consume as much Vitality as he did. Now that Han Xu had suffered three forceful collisions, adding on his injured privates, I don’t think he’ll be able to participate in tomorrow’s competition.”

“With Wei Shujie, Long Tao, and Han Xu unable to participate, if CCMAU loses this time, do they still have the reserves to fight against Martial Arts University Alliance tomorrow?”

“It is the same with MCMAU. Zhao Xuemei and Yang Xiaoman are unable to participate. Fu Changding maybe. If someone else gets injured later, and MCMAU loses, they may not win against Martial Arts University Alliance that has Rank-2 martial artists as a backup.”

“There are ups and downs to this competition. It is still too early to tell whether Martial Arts University Alliance will have the chance to make a comeback…”

“Next round, CCMAU Fang Wenxiang versus MCMAU Tang Songting.”

…

Behind the arena, Fang Ping stole a look at Yang Xiaoman who was carried down. He was not sure what to say.

This moment, Tang Songting was also about to enter the arena. Fang Ping could only focus his attention on one side. He thought for a while and told the others, “You guys go ahead and take a look at Yang Xiaoman. These ladies are really…”

He really did not know what else to say!

As he spoke, Fang Ping glanced at Fu Changding who had just limped back. He sighed, “They fight fiercer than you.”

Fu Changding panted heavily and said helplessly, “Don’t treat them as ladies… Chenxi is still the best…”

Chen Yunxi’s complexion changed all of a sudden. She gave him a stern glare before walking to the infirmary.

Fu Changding was slightly embarrassed. Fang Ping ignored them and addressed Tang Songting, “Don’t get hurt. If you are hurt critically, there won’t be enough of us for the final match.”

The two ladies could not go on fighting anymore. Fu Changding, Zhao Lei and him still could.

If Tang Songting could not fight, there would not be five Peak Rank-1 in their team.

Tang Songting nodded his head and marched off.

…

Three minutes later, Tang Songting returned. He was carried back.

Two broken arms!

Fang Ping was absolutely speechless. This fellow could forget about fighting again.

Meanwhile, in the arena, Fang Wenxiang seemed pretty relaxed. Breaking Tang Songting’s arms seemed like a piece of cake.

Tang Feng walked toward the team and reminded in a deep voice, “The other party still has two people. If you cannot defeat them, then conserve your ability…”

Fang Ping gave a slight humph and spoke indignantly, “If the university could just supply me with enough pills, I could have started and mopped the floor with their team. We could have won without these three injuries!”

Tang Feng frowned. After a moment, he said, “Don’t be so arrogant!”

“It’s not arrogance, but confidence! Anyway, I know the others won’t be satisfied if they don’t get to go into the arena.

“If that’s the case, I’ll just take care of the two remaining ones. You can all take it slow and finish the rest of them off later!”

This was the reason why Fang Ping did not vehemently insist to be the starter.

The MCMAU members had been preparing for combat for so long. If they were not given a chance to fight, how could they be satisfied?

Even though they were injured now, they did not die. As long as they were alive, delaying for a month or two was nothing. Plus, everyone had advanced with lightning speed previously; they would not fall behind.

The rest of them had given a go on the arena. Fang Ping thought it was nearly time.

“I will immobilize Fang Wenxiang and that other guy what’s his name. Tomorrow I will immobilize another one or two Martial Arts University Alliance guys. Two days later, the reserves can just continue playing with them.”

After saying those words, Fang Ping picked up his saber and walked out.

“This brat…”

Tang Feng did not know how he could be so confident.

Fang Ping might be strong, yet he did not go too far. It was hard to say that he could win for sure if he came face to face with Han Xu and Fang Wenxiang.

This was the reason he did not arrange Fang Ping as the starter. If Fang Ping was defeated, they would have trouble fighting afterward.

…

On the arena.

Fang Ping looked at Fang Wenxiang. In no rush for time, he smiled and asked, “Fang family of East Lake?”

“Yes.”

“We share the same surname. I was nearly beaten up by my instructor because of you. This is because she hates people with the surname Fang.”

Fang Wenxiang frowned and spoke flatly, “Is that so? I’m sorry, then.”

“There’s no need. The best way to apologize is to sit still and let me beat you up.”

Fang Ping grinned with his teeth exposed, “Another thing. I don’t feel so good when I look at your arm guard!”

“Huh?”

Fang Wenxiang burst out laughing. He shook his head and said, “You are very confident.”

“That is because I am strong. The match between Rank-1 is meaningless to me. I am aiming for the stars and the sea…”

…

Second floor.

An elderly man laughed all of a sudden. “Old Huang, that little fellow in your MCMAU, since when did he have so much to say?”

Huang Jing replied calmly, “Lu Fengrou’s student. Old devil Fang, you better be careful. Lu Fengrou has wanted to kill you for the longest time.”

“Hehe, Lu Fengrou could say that because…”

“Why? Unsatisfied?”

“Hehe, I will not argue with you. I am curious as to what Lu Fengrou’s student can do.”

…

As the Grandmasters on the second floor were talking.

On the arena, Fang Ping continued, “Aren’t you very confident? All this while you neither defend nor avoid. Why not both of us be straightforward this time. No hiding, how’s that?”

Fang Wenxiang frowned once again. “If that’s what you want. I don’t mind!”

“Great. I’ll take your word for it!”

Before Fang Ping finished his sentence, his long saber had already risen high up in the air!

Weng!

Immense vibrations could be felt in the air. One of the spectators watching the match in the front row could even feel the pressure!

“Manic Explosion ultimate move!”

Even Liu Huarong was surprised. He exclaimed, “Fang Wenxiang, get out of the way!”

The Vitality outbursts for this move had skyrocketed to hundreds of cal!

Roar!

Fang Wenxiang roared ferociously. He raised both arms quickly to block!

‘Block my ass.’ Fang Ping followed closely behind. Fang Wenxiang’s moves were not as quick as Fang Ping. If he blocked, he would risk getting hacked into half!

Dong!

A loud crash was heard. The long saber had struck the arm guard. The friction created sparks.

Fang Wenxiang yelled wildly. Even so, his legs buckled slightly, his face was flushed red, and his mouth spurted crimson red blood.

Just as he thought he had blocked this move…

Liu Huarong exclaimed again, “Two consecutive hacks!”

“Ultimate move two consecutive hacks!”

To define an ultimate move, a Rank-1 martial artist must achieve over a hundred cal Vitality outbursts.

Twice-honed Rank-1 martial artists had a maximum of about 300cal Vitality only.

Two consecutive hacks would amount to more than 200cal Vitality. This would deplete the usable Vitality entirely. Martial artists with inadequate Vitality to defeat the enemy after two hacks were basically prepared to be trampled on.

Fang Wenxiang had heard it too. He had also felt the pressure coming from above his head.

He made up his mind: he would receive the attack, and squash Fang Ping after he used up all his Vitality. Fang Wenxiang did not hesitate much longer. He roared once again and bellowed, “Heaven shake!”

A Heaven Shaking Fist. Rather than defending, he had chosen to actively attack!

“80cal Vitality outburst!”

Chen Xueyan was equally shocked. Both of them were so strong!

Dang!

Another loud crash. Fang Ping took a tiny step back, while Fang Wenxiang took a few consecutive steps backward. The blood dripping from his mouth had colored the ground.

It was not just his mouth that was bleeding. Blood was also slowly flowing out from the vent-hole of his fighting gloves that wrapped his hands.

Fang Wenxiang might have forcefully endured this move, but both his fists were gravely injured. There might even be broken bones.

“I’ll watch you die!”

Fang Wenxiang screamed madly. He did not spend as much Vitality as Fang Ping did!

Before he had finished speaking, Fang Wenxiang was already charging forward at breakneck speed. Even if he could not use his fists, he still had his legs!

At this moment, Fang Ping opened his mouth suddenly and said, “The pill is here, to eat or not to eat?”

After saying those words, Fang Ping’s Vitality started replenishing rapidly!

“F*ck!”

Fang Wenxiang had nearly forgotten about this. Fang Ping did not consume any pills halfway throughout the match last time. He had nearly forgotten about it.

As he stepped into the trap, Fang Ping hacked for the third time!

“Surrender!”

Someone shouted from the second floor. The referee immediately pulled Fang Wenxiang and retreated.

As they retreated, Fang Ping chased after them!

A powerhouse sitting on the second floor shouted in rage, “We have surrendered. Why are you still chasing!”

“I have consumed the pill. Compensate me for the pill and I will stop!”

Fang Ping was equally furious. ‘I had just eaten a Rank-1 Vitality pill. How could you surrender when I was just about to attack!’

“You…”

The referee was also speechless. He had to kick Fang Ping’s long saber away. He did not dare to receive it forcefully with his bare hands.

After all, Fang Ping was only a Rank-1. When the Rank-5 referee interfered, the saber slipped sideways and sliced into the pole at the edge of the arena.

With a loud crash, the pole was hacked into a few pieces.

Fang Ping panted, glared at Fang Wenxiang who was filled with trepidation and gave a humph. “Consider yourself lucky. Just you wait in two days. Surrender before it’s too late or else I will hack you to death!”

“You…”

Fang Wenxiang’s complexion was flushed red. He spat a mouthful of blood once more. Two hacks just now. His injuries were more than serious!

“Can you compete in two days? I’m guessing you can’t. If you don’t compensate me for the loss of my pill, I will hack you every time I see you!”

“I… pu…”

Fang Wenxiang had passed out. He had really passed out. The blood flowed endlessly from his mouth.

…

On the second floor, the Grandmaster with the surname Fang had a deathly dark look on his face.

Huang Jing beamed and reminded him, “Old devil Fang, this kid comes from a poverty-stricken family. Even a pill is like a treasure to him. If your grandson does not compensate him for his pill, I can guarantee that he will keep his word, attacking him every time he sees him!”

“Humph!”

“Don’t humph, and don’t even think about getting your Fang family involved. This is my MCMAU student, as well as Lu Fengrou’s student. Ask your grandson to reconsider…”

After that, Huang Jing muttered, seemingly subconsciously, “Tsk tsk, consuming a pill beforehand to release an ultimate move of three consecutive hacks. Could four and five consecutive hacks be possible?

“Sigh, CCMAU should be careful now. Don’t blame if someone gets chopped to death.”

Hearing his words, the complexion of a few CCMAU instructors turned black as well. How should they f*cking go about fighting?

Meanwhile, on the arena, Fang Ping had consumed two Rank-1 Vitality Pills in a row. His Vitality replenished slowly.
