"Wu..." You Wujiang turned his head to look at Miss Wu.
Before he could finish speaking, Miss Wu directly interrupted, "Sorry, Hall Master You, our cooperation is canceled!"
As soon as her words fell, Miss Wu waved to the people of Unchanging Valley behind her.
The crowd took a few steps to the side, distancing themselves from the people of Youming Hall.
You Wujiang was slightly stunned and his complexion turned dark in an instant as he spoke in a cold voice, "Is Unchanging Valley so dishonest?"
"We are not dishonest, but I suddenly realized that cooperating with you is a huge mistake!" Miss Wu said indifferently, turning her head to look toward the tournament stage without paying any further attention to You Wujiang, yet a hint of worry could be seen in her eyes.
You Wujiang's face turned iron blue as he glared fiercely at Miss Wu. However, he could not lose his temper, especially since they were mid-tournament. If he angered these people from Unchanging Valley and they decided to go up to the stage and fight against his side, that would be a complete loss. After all, their cooperation had only been a verbal agreement without any actual collaborative matters discussed.
Moreover, if the people from Unchanging Valley cooperated with Chixiao Sect, given that Chixiao Sect didn't have a Semi Venerable Venerable, they would probably welcome the people of Unchanging Valley even more. He couldn't take that risk.
Biting back his anger, You Wujiang turned to look at a young man behind him.
The young man's complexion turned pale; he was Semi Innate, but judging by the aura emanating from Lou Qiangqiang, he was much weaker than him. However, You Wujiang had already made his command clear, and he couldn't resist. He had no choice but to stiffen his resolve and leap onto the tournament stage.
"You Ming Hall, Huang Jiang, this brother, let's stop when we hit, how about that?" Huang Jiang cupped his fists toward Lou Qiangqiang, putting on a smile that sought to ingratiate himself.
"This..." Lou Qiangqiang was startled for a moment before turning to look at Jiang Chen.
"Counterattack with all your might!" Jiang Chen's eyes flashed, and he shouted loudly.
"Be careful!"
"Despicable!"
A chorus of shouts of alarm rang out simultaneously.
Lou Qiangqiang instantly felt a gale wind hitting his back. Without time for further thought, he followed Jiang Chen's instructions and launched a full-power counterattack without looking back.
Bang! Bang!
Two muffled thumps sounded as Lou Qiangqiang and Huang Jiang were sent flying in opposite directions.
Thud! Thud!
Pfft! Pfft!
Both men hit the ground almost simultaneously, then each spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Bastard! You dare to ambush me? I'll kill you!" Lou Qiangqiang, furious, got up and charged straight at Huang Jiang.
Huang Jiang's face changed. He had tried to launch a sneak attack, hoping to seriously injure Lou Qiangqiang, but hadn't expected Lou Qiangqiang to react so quickly, directly striking back with a palm to his chest, considerably weakening his own strike. Otherwise, the blow to his back would have been enough to keep Lou Qiangqiang down.
And Lou Qiangqiang managed to counterattack successfully thanks to Jiang Chen's command to "counterattack."
Normally in this situation, people, like those from Chixiao Sect, would shout warnings like "Be careful" or "Despicable."
Such words, when heard by the person being ambushed, could make them think "Why be careful?" or "What's despicable?" and, even if they felt the gale wind on their back, their first reaction might be to turn and look.
But Jiang Chen's shout of "Counterattack!" allowed Lou Qiangqiang to act without looking back, simply following orders, which of course required the attacked person to have absolute trust in the one who shouted!
Bang!
Lou Qiangqiang reached Huang Jiang and kicked him in the stomach, then a wave of ruffian belligerence came over him; he cursed as he hit.
"You dare to ambush me?"
Bang! Bang!
"Do you know who I am?"
Smack!
"I am the Little Devil King of Chaos!"
Slap slap!
"There's only ever been me ambushing others!"
Bang bang bang!
"You fucking dare to ambush me?!"
Bang bang!
"Little master will beat you to death!"
Boom!
A roaring sound erupted as an enraged Qiangqiang delivered a vicious kick, directly planting Huang Jiang into the arena, leaving only his head exposed.
At that moment, Huang Jiang looked pitiful beyond measure, his lower body no longer visible. The head that stuck out was swollen like a pig's, with two bright red palm prints starkly visible on his cheeks. Blood continuously spilled from his mouth,
Sputter!
Huang Jiang suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood, mixed with several teeth.
The crowd around the arena watched Qiangqiang on stage, dumbstruck.
The recent battle had left them completely perplexed.
After Qiangqiang's kick landed on Huang Jiang, Huang Jiang no longer had the strength to fight back, turning into a punching bag for Qiangqiang. It wasn't because Huang Jiang was scared, but because he was in too much pain to retaliate. Qiangqiang's kick had landed squarely in the most vital spot for a man.
What followed was a serving of slaps and a barrage of punches, straight out of a street fight, leaving him completely dazed by Qiangqiang!
Jiang Chen shook his head speechlessly. He knew very well that Qiangqiang's victory in this battle rested entirely on that initial kick. Had Huang Jiang not been struck in his weak spot, it would likely be Qiangqiang who lost.
Watching that unmethodical attack, a chaotic brawl that looked like beating an old master to death, Jiang Chen truly regretted letting Qiangqiang on stage—it was embarrassing!
"This...he doesn't know how to fight?" Mo Tianze asked, his face full of surprise.
Jiang Chen replied with a bitter smile, "All I knew was that he always pretended to be a spoiled rich kid. But who knew his fighting was just like a spoiled rich kid's street brawl? If I had known it was like this, I wouldn't have let him on stage even if it killed me. It's too humiliating!"
"Haha!" Mo Tianze couldn't hold back and chuckled, Lin Jiuxiao and several others twitched their mouths, suppressing their laughter.
"Ma De, you dare to ambush me, the Little Devil King? Do you realize how formidable I am now?" Qiangqiang stood in front of Huang Jiang's head, pointing at Huang Jiang with an arrogant look on his face.
Huang Jiang's head buzzed loudly as he shook it vigorously to regain clarity. Seeing Qiangqiang standing in front of him sparked a flash of cold light in his eyes.
"Retreat!" Jiang Chen's eyes flashed with urgency as he shouted.
Qiangqiang paused in confusion, looking at Jiang Chen; "Huh? Retreat?"
Bang!
A muffled sound rang out as Huang Jiang suddenly sprang from within the arena, laying a palm strike heavily on Qiangqiang's chest.
Caught off guard, Qiangqiang took the hit directly, his body flung backwards through the air.
Jiang Chen's expression changed, and he moved to rush up to the arena.
"Young Jiang." Mo Tianze, who had been watching Jiang Chen closely, quickly interjected, "Don't go, that would make Chixiao Sect a laughing stock!"
"Big brother, I'm fine! Leave it to me!" A roar erupted as Qiangqiang alternated between being flung back and shouting. A ruthless glint flashed in his eyes: "Ma De, twice! I've been ambushed twice, little master. You're fucking dead!"
The fact that he could still curse meant the injuries weren't particularly severe.
Jiang Chen halted his steps, standing at the edge of the arena, watching intently the two figures rapidly converging on stage, ready to intervene at any moment.
In his view, Qiangqiang's life was far more precious than the Chixiao Sect's reputation.
