Chapter 45: Chapter 45 Black Tiger
As soon as he stepped onto the stage, without a second word, he launched a furious assault at that bald man, employing extremely vicious moves, all aiming at the ribs, throat, knees, and groin—each strike was exceedingly malevolent. However, that bald man, after all, possessed the acute sensitivity of a Grey Eagle Star, managing to narrowly evade each attack in the nick of time.
"Enough of this, Black Tiger Star!"
Black Tiger let out a low growl, and the phantom of a giant black tiger emerged behind him. In an instant, a tiger’s roar stiffened the bald man’s body.
This was the Star Skill of the Star, Tiger Roar, capable of shaking the enemy’s spirit, inducing a momentary lapse in concentration.
Down you go!
With a cold sneer, Black Tiger lunged towards the bald man who had just regained his wits, his face swiftly changing in an attempt to block. But with a loud thump, the bald man let out a miserable cry and was sent flying out of the ring.
Three moves to dispose of the bald man—Black Tiger’s appearance caused many to gasp in shock.
"My god, is this guy that fierce?"
"That’s a Star Skill, way too exaggerated."
"His Black Tiger Star seems like a Sixth Grade Star!"
"This guy could at least win ten or even eleven consecutive matches!"
Many spectators on the viewing platform became excited and began discussing fervently.
After defeating the bald man, Black Tiger turned to Lin Feng and crooked his finger in a challenge. This gesture caught the attention of many, who then turned their gaze towards Lin Feng’s direction. However, due to the crowd in that area, they couldn’t pinpoint the exact person.
Lin Feng, behind his mask, smiled. This man was truly aggressive. Well, it didn’t matter. After all, he came here to earn Gold Pearls, and he was destined to battle sooner or later. Since this man was courting death, Lin Feng would grant his wish.
With that thought, Lin Feng started walking towards the battle platform, signalling to others that he was the masked individual Black Tiger intended to challenge.
"This guy looks to be only about fourteen or fifteen years old."
"So young, could he have a grudge against that guy?"
"I don’t know. With a mask on, so mysterious, could he possibly be some expert?"
"Who knows, but I feel that Black Tiger can definitely win."
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Lin Feng stepped onto the battle platform.
Upon seeing Lin Feng ascend to the stage, a fierce glint exploded within Black Tiger’s eyes.
"Although your strength isn’t that great, you’ve got guts. You actually dare to come down."
Lin Feng looked on coolly, "You keep saying my strength isn’t great, but you’re just at Second Layer Peak yourself. Where does your confidence come from?"
"Haha? Confidence?"
Black Tiger burst into laughter, shook his head, and spoke in a patronizing tone of a senior.
"Shallow people only grasp cultivation level, but what you don’t know is that even within the same level of cultivation, the difference in combat power is vast. Although you and I are both at Martial Master Second Layer Peak, there’s one thing you need to clarify—that is, my combat power is far, far different from yours!"
Black Tiger let out a low shout and a mass of black Gang Qi appeared in his palm.
"Wow, such thick Gang Qi!"
"This guy is strong, his Gang Qi is much denser than that of an average Second Layer Peak. The denser the Gang Qi, the stronger his attack will be."
"That masked kid is going to suffer."
Hearing the astonished whispers around him, Black Tiger revealed a confident smile.
"Enough, I won’t waste words with you. Young man, do not be too arrogant. This world is full of the strong, don’t act so superior just because you have a bit of strength and cultivation. Today, I won’t kill you, just teach you a lesson. Down you go!"
With a low shout, Black Tiger posed in a peculiar initial stance, resembling a fierce tiger about to pounce.
"This, this is a Four Stars Battle Skill!"
"What a powerful sensation!"
"The masked guy is bound to lose!"
Black Tiger’s mouth curled into a smirk, and the next moment, with a stomp of the ground, his whole body charged forward like a cannonball, while his Black Tiger Star continuously roared.
Seeing Lin Feng standing still, Black Tiger sneered in his heart, thinking he must be scared. Even as a clan disciple, Three-star Combat Technique would be his limit. Probably, he’s already shocked by his own imposing aura and unable to react.
Weaklings, this is just how weaklings behave in the face of the strong.
Black Tiger seemed to already see the fear-filled eyes of Lin Feng, but in the next moment, Lin Feng moved.
Crackle and pop.
A bolt of lightning flashed, instantly illuminating Lin Feng’s youthful face, followed by a Thunder Seal tearing through the air.
One Thunder Breaks All!
What?
The smirk on Black Tiger’s face disappeared instantly, as Lin Feng had actually displayed a Four Stars Battle Skill?
This kid knows it too?
Black Tiger’s complexion soured instantly. He hadn’t seen it coming; this unassuming guy actually possessed a Four Stars Battle Skill. But what of it, Black Tiger was confident he could still defeat him!
Bang!
Ah! 𝚗ovp𝚞b.𝚌om
The moment the two clashed, lightning scattered, accompanied by Tiger Roar Dragon Chant, and immediately, a figure was sent flying through the air.
When the spectators on the stands saw the face of the person flying backward, expressions of shock appeared on their faces.
Because the person who was sent flying was Black Tiger!
"How could this be, Black Tiger was sent flying by this guy with one move?"
"Incredible, they are both at the Second Layer Peak, how could there be such a huge gap!"
"Terrifying, that move by the masked man was definitely a Four Stars Battle Skill!"
"Even if it was a Four Stars Battle Skill, Black Tiger has one as well, and their cultivation is the same. Why couldn’t Black Tiger withstand one move!!"
Everyone’s jaws dropped in disbelief; the Black Tiger they had high hopes for had been blasted away with a single move.
Wow
Black Tiger, clutching his chest, coughed up a mouthful of blood. Staring at Lin Feng, who hadn’t moved an inch, his eyes were filled with shock and rage.
How could this guy be so strong?
He asked himself, unable to understand why he was no match for Lin Feng’s single move. They both were of the same cultivation level and used combat skills of the same grade, it shouldn’t be like this.
Suddenly, his body shivered. It must be the Star, this guy’s Star must be stronger than his Black Tiger Star.
Lin Feng looked on indifferently; indeed, every Star has its characteristics, like the speed and acuity of an eagle, the ferocity and power of a Black Tiger.
And like the devouring nature of Lin Feng’s Demon Dragon, along with the defense and strength of the Shield Bone Dragon.
Under these amplifications, though both Lin Feng and Black Tiger are Martial Masters at the Second Layer, Lin Feng’s strength was definitely comparable to that of a Martial Master at the Fourth or even Fifth Layer, approximately one thousand five hundred jin of immense force.
Whereas Black Tiger, although his strength was enhanced by the Black Tiger Star and was greater than that of an ordinary person, was at most comparable to a Martial Master Third Layer.
Compared to Lin Feng, there was definitely a significant gap.
So with a single move, his defeat was not unjust.
"Do you still want to continue?"
Lin Feng asked indifferently.
