Translator: 549690339
In the first round, Emerald City defeated ping Hu city by thirty points and advanced to the next round.
As the loser, all the Warriors from ping Hu city were eliminated. They would not be able to enter the next round.
Even the champion of ping Hu city, who had reached the sixth fold of the middle constellation stage, would not be able to enter the next round.
“It’s quite cruel!” Shen Jinghong was speechless.
It was fine if others were eliminated, but the first place had a chance of breaking through to the martial arts celestial Palace.
However, he was dragged down by his companions and was eliminated.
“City duels are not determined by the number of wins and losses, but by the difficulty of winning and losing,” Zhou xuelin said after some thought.
If the winner was defeated within three moves, they would get 30 points.
If he defeated his opponent within ten moves, he would get 20 points.
If he defeated his opponent within 20 moves, he would get 10 points.
In the end, the victory points of both sides would be calculated to determine the victory and defeat of the city battle.
pay special attention to two special situations. Shen Jinghong added, ” first, he’ll be the overall representative. His victory or defeat will double his total score. Second, his points will double if he defeats his opponent with a single move.
For example, the general representative of the heaven’s wall city was Liu Kang, who was ranked first.
If the lone Cloud City could defeat him in three moves, the points they would receive would not be 30 points, but 60 points that would be doubled!
If he could defeat him in one move, the 30 points would be doubled, which would be 120 points!
Similarly, the lone Cloud city’s head representative, Zhu zijian, was the same.
His victory would determine the future of lone Cloud City to a great extent.
However, Zhu zijian had also broken through to the sixth fold of the middle constellation stage recently, and his overall strength was not inferior to Liu Kang’s.
There was no need to worry about this.
The city showdown proceeded in an orderly manner.
Four hours passed.
Finally, it was lone Cloud city’s turn to deal with heaven’s wall city.
The representatives of both sides stepped onto the stage and looked at each other.
Due to the withdrawal of starflow, there were only five people left in lone Cloud
City.
The heaven’s wall city had six people present.
Liu Kang was dressed in a red robe and had a smile on his face. I heard that there were bandits pretending to be the three heroes of tiangang and beat up the experts of your lone Cloud City at the gathering. I wonder if it’s true. Upon hearing this, Shen Jinghong and the others felt humiliated.
This was a stain that they could not wash away.
Zhu zijian’s eyes lit up and he scolded, “”Liu Kang, don’t you dare insult me! As the general representatives, let’s have a duel. I will convince you with my strength!”
Eh?
The expressions of Shen Jinghong and the others changed.
It would be too risky to start a battle between the head representatives right from the start.
Zhu zijian was too rash.
“Teacher, I’ll let you fight in the second round. This way, we’ll be able to secure victory.” Shen Jinghong had no confidence in himself.
Xia qingchen calmly shook his head. it’s impossible for you guys to always rely on me. Hence, if there aren’t any special circumstances, I won’t act in the city battles.
At the National banquet, there would be countless powerful enemies. This would be a good way to temper Shen Jinghong and the others.
It wasn’t a good thing for them to only rely on Xia qingchen.
moreover, if Zhu zijian wins, the winner will continue to challenge him. I don’t have to go on stage. Xia qingchen glanced at Zhu zijian.
Although this person’s strength was average and he was stupid, he might be able to deal with the heaven’s wall city.
“Alright, I hope Zhu zijian wins.” Shen Jinghong sighed as he placed his hopes on Zhu zijian.
The representatives of both sides came to the center of the ring at the same time.
make your move, ” Liu Kang said with a smile. let me see if the strength of your lone Cloud City is really that weak.
Zhu zijian looked at him coldly, “how arrogant!” Watch my sword!”
He held his long sword and took the initiative to attack.
“Light splitting sword!”
“It’s just so-so.” Liu Kang smiled without saying anything.
Liu Kang dodged the sword easily and hit Zhu zijian’s chest with his palm.
“Waa!”
Zhu zijian let out a miserable groan and fell to the ground, losing his combat ability!
The pavilion master of the imperial capital’s martial Pavilion looked at Zhu zijian with a profound look and announced indifferently, heaven’s wall city’s general representative, Liu kangsheng, has a score of 120!
Upon hearing this, the crowd burst into an uproar!
“Are you kidding me? The overall representative was defeated in one move. The difference in the score is 120 points!” it can’t be. He’s the leader of a city. How can he be so weak? ”
one hundred and twenty points. Hehe, do we still need to continue with the rest of the competition? ”
Shen Jinghong and the other two were also in an uproar.
They had never thought that Zhu zijian would be defeated in one move!
“Purple sword! You’re doing this on purpose!” Shen Jinghong angrily rebuked.
Zhu zijian was at least at the sixth fold-level of the middle constellation stage. How could he be so easily defeated by a single palm strike?
Moreover, the flaw he revealed was too obvious.
He was simply deliberately giving himself up to be beaten!
Zhu zijian crawled up and chided, ” Shen Jinghong, if you lose, then you lose. We have to lose with dignity! Don’t be like a scoundrel and refuse to admit defeat! When facing an opponent, you must have the most basic respect!”
There wasn’t the slightest bit of shame on his face. Instead, he rebuked Shen Jinghong with conviction.
As he spoke, he turned around and bowed respectfully to Liu Kang. brother Liu’s strength is astonishing. I, Zhu zijian, admit defeat. Our lone Cloud City is indeed far inferior to the heaven’s wall city .
It was fine if he admitted defeat.
He had even admitted defeat to lone Cloud City!
“Get lost! You’re a coward, don’t drag lone Cloud City into this!” Shen Jinghong’s palm struck out.
Zhu zijian turned around and slashed.
His swordsmanship was obviously much stronger than when he was fighting Liu Kang!
Shen Jinghong laughed coldly, ‘isn’t this quite amazing? How could he be defeated like a dead dog in one move?”
He was certain that Zhu zijian had intentionally defeated his opponent in one move to increase his opponent’s points.
His motive was not hard to understand.
In the current lone Cloud City, the Halo of him being number one had long faded.
Especially the wind and cloud Association, who was defeated by a Bandit in one move, causing his reputation to plummet, and even his family was despised.
It was as if the entire clan would no longer be able to maintain a foothold in lone Cloud City.
Therefore, Zhu zijian acted in secret.
In the past month, he had contacted the general representatives of the other 17 cities many times and made an agreement with them.
If the true Dragon soared to the nine Heavens and fought against a city, he was willing to lose in one move and give the other party 120 points in exchange for the Zhu family to move to their city.
Since it concerned the outcome of the true Dragon search, they naturally agreed.
That was why the scene before him was happening.
Zhu zijian had lost to Liu Kang in one move on purpose.
After this matter, the entire Zhu family could move to the heaven’s wall city and receive the full support of the heaven’s wall city.
Shen Jinghong, Liu Kang is indeed very strong. I admit that I’m inferior to him, so stop pestering me. “If you continue to spout nonsense, I’ll cut you down with my sword!” Zhu zijian said fiercely.
“Then I’d like to see how you’re going to cut it!” Shen Jinghong was extremely angry.
Never in his wildest dreams would he have thought that Zhu zijian, as the chief representative, would betray them.
He displayed his fist technique in anger and fought with Zhu zijian on the spot.
Zhu zijian’s swordsmanship was soft and weak when dealing with his enemies, but when dealing with his own people, he was ruthless and his every move was extremely dangerous.
After a few rounds, not only did Shen Jinghong not manage to take down the red purple sword, he even sustained several sword wounds on his body. This time, anyone with eyes could understand what was going on.
This was Zhu zijian’s true strength.
When he was fighting Liu Kang just now, he had admitted defeat on purpose..
