652: Chapter 612: The Strongest Sisters_1 652: Chapter 612: The Strongest Sisters_1 Zhao Changying’s words only made Gu Xiaosang even angrier.

“Do I need you to let me?

Just watch how I beat the crap out of you!”

Without another word, she threw down her longsword, clenched her fists, and strode toward Zhao Changying.

Seeing this, Zhao Changying was immediately startled.

You should pick up your weapon, I should be the one to fight you with bare hands.”

“You’re just Grade 4 in the Saint Realm; do I even need a sword to beat you?

That would be too much of a bully.”

Seeing Gu Xiaosang’s arrogant words, he got angry and threw down his own weapon, clenching his fists as he walked toward Gu Xiaosang.

“Big talk, then let me teach you a lesson today, so you’ll know who the real powerhouse is!”

He charged at Gu Xiaosang without another word.

Gu Xiaosang didn’t back down either, she headed straight towards him.

Both of them were very hot-tempered and started to fight without another word, catching the audience by surprise.

However, as Zhao Changying approached Gu Xiaosang and was about to swing his left hook at her,

the next moment, Gu Xiaosang threw her punch first.

Her speed was even more fierce and rapid, her right hand turned into a blur, like a small cannonball, striking toward Zhao Changying’s abdomen.

After a muffled sound, Zhao Changying was sent flying backward.

With a thud, Zhao Changying landed heavily on the ground.

At this moment, his mind was in a daze, what had just happened?

How did he end up lying down?

His opponent’s speed, why was it so fast that he didn’t even have time to react?

And that power, wasn’t it a bit too excessive!

How could a little girl explode with such tremendous strength, what level was her power really!

He felt extremely astonished, and his stomach churned violently, making him incredibly uncomfortable.

Struggling to stand, he looked at Gu Xiaosang with eyes suddenly filled with fear.

That punch had made him realize the harsh reality: the gap in strength seemed a bit too wide…

The surrounding audience was also surprised by the brief exchange.

They didn’t expect that Gu Xiaosang, like her sister, possessed equally fierce combat strength, managing to overwhelm her opponent without a chance to fight back.

At this moment, Zhao Changying had only taken one punch, yet he seemed to have lost his will to fight and didn’t even want to continue.

Gu Xiaosang, clenching her fists, walked towards him, “Come on, let’s see who’s afraid!”

He hastily raised his hand, admitting defeat with a pained expression.

Just one punch made him face reality; it was a gap in raw strength that he couldn’t bridge.

If he didn’t admit defeat, he could only wait to be thrashed even more.

Zhao Changying left the arena in a sorry state while Gu Xiaosang picked up her weapon and also stepped down from the dueling arena.

Suddenly, all eyes in the venue were focused on the Gu sisters, with both of their strengths appearing rather exaggerated, perhaps the biggest dark horses of the year.

“It’s really not satisfying, just one punch, and I haven’t yet felt my own strength properly.”

She stated with a tinge of regret.

“If you continued, you might have caused him serious injuries.

But he was wise enough to know when he’s outmatched and backed down.

Not like Xu Hu, who was incredibly stubborn,”

Gu Xiaorou said with a smile.

Lu Chuan looked at the two of them with satisfaction.

“It’s really not easy to break through to the Martial King Realm, but from now on it will be much easier.

By absorbing the Spiritual Energy from the tree branches together, our cultivation speed will be very fast.”

Gu Xiaosang felt an indescribable excitement in her heart.

To undergo such a huge change just by breaking through to the Martial King Realm, she couldn’t wait to continue breaking through, aspiring to become a top-tier warrior, a goal that every martial artist dreamed of.

By this time, the first round of the competition had gradually come to an end, and the list of the top hundred or so names had been compiled.

Next came the second round of competition.

From now on, they would duel against the disciples of three martial masters, who were akin to judges, assessing their performance and awarding points.

The final rankings would be determined based on these points and scores.

This was the most crucial part of the competition.

If one didn’t perform well enough, there was still the risk of elimination, so they all had to give it their all to try to make it into the top ten and join the Zhan Family Martial Arts Hall in Dubhe City.

Soon after, the duels for the first round began.

A disciple of Liang Wanhu stepped forward and began the competition.

In the second round, it was the turn of a disciple of Lin Tianhai, and in the third round, a disciple of Zhan Tianyu took the stage.

Each of them had brought three core disciples, so the rotation went smoothly with virtually no issues.

Furthermore, their disciples’ strength was all above the Martial King Realm, so their skirmishes with these young fighters were mostly one-sided, the exertion akin to their usual warm-up exercises.

The rounds of the competition quickly progressed.

Finally, the name Gu Xiaorou once again reached the ears of the audience.

This time, all eyes were on her, watching intently as she took to the stage.

From the first round of the competition, it was evident that this young person named Gu Xiaorou possessed terrifying strength.

Not only her, but her sister Gu Xiaosang was also equally formidable.

Gu Xiaorou slowly stepped onto the dueling arena, her opponent being one of Lin Tianhai’s disciples, Lin Guang!

Lin Guang, who appeared to be about twenty-five or twenty-six years old, stood his ground with a long spear in hand, dressed in a cyan robe, his gaze piercing like torches as he fixated on Gu Xiaorou.

“I’ve seen your performance just now with my own eyes.

You truly are one of the strong among this generation’s young martial artists, but it’s your misfortune to encounter me!”

“Now, show me your strength to the fullest and try to injure me, although it is highly unlikely you will succeed.

Let’s see, try your best to push me back instead,” he said confidently, seemingly not believing that he would be injured by Gu Xiaorou.

The reason was simple: in the previous rounds, he had come off the stage without a scratch, utterly unpressured.

His strength was on a different level compared to these martial artists.

Therefore, for Gu Xiaorou, her goal was to force her opponent into an embarrassing retreat, which would boost her own score even higher.

At that moment, Gu Xiaorou, holding a longsword, advanced toward Lin Guang.

“Then, I won’t hold back!”

This time, Gu Xiaorou brought forth all her strength and charged towards Lin Guang at top speed.

With a light tap of her toes on the ground, she almost instantaneously appeared at Lin Guang’s side.

Seeing this, Lin Guang’s brows furrowed tightly.

The speed Gu Xiaorou displayed was indeed unexpected; such speed wasn’t ordinary and was the limit of what could be achieved at the Martial King Realm.

Could it be that this woman was already at the Martial King Realm?

Taking a deep breath, Lin Guang quickly positioned his spear horizontally in front of him to block!

At this moment, he started to take her seriously.

The opponent’s strength seemed not to be underestimated!
