Chapter 158: Mighty Martial Arts [3]

Basking in the thunderous applause, Yan Yu suddenly felt that this kind of flexing felt pretty good.

When it comes to age—I am younger than you.
When it comes to looks—I am more handsome than you.
When it comes to family background—I am wealthier than you.
When it comes to strength—I am stronger than you!

I just love that look on your face—you despise me so much, yet you can do nothing to get rid of me!

"Shh, everyone quiet down!" Yan Yu suddenly said in a low voice, "Listen to me, everyone."

The audience instantly quieted down, eager to hear what this formidable, wealthy second-generation young master wanted to say.

With a very serious expression, Yan Yu said, "I'm not targeting anyone in particular. I just want to say that everyone present here is absolute trash!"

"..."

"I just love this brat's arrogant attitude!"
"Little brother, what's your name? I want to bear your children!"
"An exceptional young man like you—still want to shave ten years off your hard work? This aunt guarantees I won't use a wealthy sugar mommy's vibrating ball to grind you down!"

Ren Yuheng stared blankly at the people around him.

Clearly, each of them was a heavyweight figure in their respective fields, the kind of arrogant bigwigs whose noses were permanently stuck in the air. How could they become even more excited after being cursed out by Yan Yu just now?

Little did he know, these bastards simply had a masochistic streak. Sometimes, having grown accustomed to lording it over others, they actually felt refreshed when someone cursed at them. Otherwise, why would so many rich people enjoy playing S&M...

"Asshole, ahhhhh!"

Li Hu was on the verge of fainting. He had no idea what had just happened before he was defeated.

The only thing he could be certain of was that the kid in front of him was extraordinary, and his strength was outrageously terrifying!

Suddenly, words his coach had once told him during training flashed through Li Hu's mind.

"Li Hu, you must remember that what we practice are merely ordinary combat techniques, which cannot be considered true martial arts at all! Across our mainland of China, there are many unfathomable martial arts realms that we can hardly imagine. In front of those freaks, even if we push our combat skills to the absolute limit, we are no match for them!"

"Could it be..." Li Hu's pupils constricted. "This kid is a successor of the martial arts path?"

No way! If he were truly defeated here, his life would be on the line!

Li Hu hurriedly looked toward the eastern spectator stand.

Standing there was a man dressed in black wearing a golden mask.

The man seemed to understand and gave Li Hu a silent nod, which finally set Li Hu's mind at ease.

In fact, that masked fellow was the owner of this underground boxing arena, and Li Hu had come to Rongcheng upon his invitation.

This battle was wagering not just Li Hu's life, but also a massive fortune belonging to this guy. If Li Hu lost, the underground boxing arena would likely be bankrupted, so they would never allow such a thing to happen!

"Number Three!" the man in the golden mask shouted.

A subordinate behind him reminded him, "Boss, Third Brother is still in the hospital..."

"..." The man remained silent for a moment. "Where is Number Two?"

"He is outside searching for the whereabouts of Zhang Jingtian and the others."

"It seems... I have no choice but to do it myself," the man said coldly. "What on earth is this kid's background that he is so fiercely formidable?"

The subordinate behind him frowned and said, "Boss, I keep feeling like this kid looks somewhat familiar, but I just can't remember where I've seen him."

"Forget it all! Li Hu cannot lose!"

With that, the man retrieved a fine black needle from inside his robe.

He stabbed the fine needle into the center of his own brow, letting it absorb his vital blood, and then pulled it out, directly hurling it toward Li Hu!

Li Hu only felt a pain in his back, followed by numbness in his consciousness. At the same time, he sensed a power that did not belong to his own body injecting itself into his limbs.

His body was also taking control under another consciousness.

"Huh?"

Yan Yu suddenly felt his brow itch, as if his Heavenly Eye had detected something. He quickly turned his head and glanced at Li Hu, who was slowly rising to his feet.

He sensed a strong ghostly aura emanating from Li Hu. This aura was no weaker than Zhao Qingqing's, reaching the level of a forty-year-old fierce ghost!

Lowering his gaze, he saw that Li Hu, now standing upright, was actually walking on tiptoes.

"Possessed by a ghost?" Yan Yu's expression changed slightly as he quickly scanned his surroundings. He hadn't expected that hidden helpers with extraordinary talents were secretly assisting Li Hu in this small underground boxing arena!

At that moment, Li Hu suddenly launched an attack. Abandoning his most powerful and hardest fists, he switched to claw attacks instead!

Blue veins bulged across Li Hu's five fingers as if he could crush stone into powder. Not daring to take him on head-on, Yan Yu could only temporarily retreat.

"Sister, did you sense that?" Zhang Jingtian suddenly asked.

Liu Yuxin nodded. "It must be Wei Xian making his move! He must have had a fierce ghost possess Li Hu's body to deal with Yan Yu! That means Wei Xian is definitely inside this underground boxing arena. Let's split up and search!"

The three of them led their respective subordinates and began searching among the audience.

Seeing Li Hu suddenly turn fierce, Hao Zhuang and the others grew secretly worried. "Boss, be careful!"

"Don't worry."

Yan Yu waved his hand and began to take Li Hu seriously.

Being possessed by a fierce ghost with forty years of cultivation was no good thing. Even if Li Hu won this match, the fellow would have few good years left to live due to the ghostly aura infiltrating his body.

"Hah!"

Li Hu lunged at Yan Yu once more. Yan Yu swiftly sidestepped to dodge and kicked toward Li Hu's abdomen.

However, Li Hu's normally vulnerable abdomen was now as hard as a block of iron, sending a numb tingling sensation all the way up Yan Yu's leg!

His expression darkened. The fierce ghost possessing Li Hu had no intention of leaving Li Hu alive; his kick earlier hadn't failed to inflict damage on Li Hu—rather, the damage and pain were being forcibly ignored by the fierce ghost!

Li Hu's ribs were probably broken in several places, but the fierce ghost was forcibly controlling his body, leaving Li Hu alone to bear the agony!

Just as Yan Yu tried to withdraw, Li Hu suddenly grabbed his ankle. Yan Yu cursed inwardly—bad!

With a cold sneer, Li Hu used immense strength to yank Yan Yu directly in front of him, smashing a fist straight into Yan Yu's chest!

"Ugh!"

Yan Yu let out a muffled groan. Suffering a heavy blow to his chest, he couldn't help spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood.

Catching the scent of blood, the murderous intent in Li Hu's eyes intensified. Disregarding the rules entirely, he unbuckled his own belt to use as a weapon, employing its sharp edge to slash a long wound across Yan Yu's calf!

"Boss!" Hao Zhuang and the others felt their hearts leap into their throats.

The man in the golden mask, however, sneered coldly. "Kid, even if you are a successor of the martial arts path, aren't you still going to fall into my hands?!"

At that moment, the man's subordinate suddenly remembered something and blurted out, "Boss! I remember now! This is the brat who stopped us from capturing Liu Yuxin that day! He's also the one who crippled Second Brother so he couldn't take care of himself! And the fierce ghost we sent to assassinate Zhang Jingtian at the Mengguo Club last time was also exterminated by him!"

"What?! Why didn't you say so sooner?!" The man's pupils constricted in shock!
