Chen Heng’s opponent came very quickly. As soon as he walked onto the stage, Wang Zhong came over, looking at Chen Heng with a playful expression. There was a unique feeling in his gaze as if he was thinking about something, giving people the sense that he had caught a prey.
“Your eyesight is terrible.” Chen Heng looked at Wang Zhong and said indifferently.
“Is that so?” Wang Zhong smiled and then said, “That’s rude.”
“I thought you wouldn’t mind.”
As he was talking rudely, the expression on his face became more and more apparent, giving people an obvious sense of playfulness but with a tint of uneasiness.
“Do you know? Before this, I heard about your news, and I was surprised. What kind of situation is it for a person like you to take the initiative to come before me and willingly throw your life away?”
Wang Zhong looked at Chen Heng, and the smile on his face became more and more intense. He seemed to have begun to imagine the scene of Chen Heng’s flesh and blood flying everywhere.
“You talk too much.” Chen Heng said coldly, looking at Wang Zhong, and said indifferently, “Go on and try it if you really can.”
Wang Zhong shrugged and didn’t intend to continue speaking. He just looked at Chen Heng, and his apparent malice was not concealed at all.
Although it seemed very ordinary on the surface, in reality, Chen Heng’s challenge this time was undoubtedly a provocation to him. Before this, he had never thought that one day, there would be someone who dared to stand before him and even deliberately arranged for him to fight. This long-lost feeling once again appeared in his mind, making him feel a little subtle at this moment.
Around him, when the mechanical sounds that symbolized the start of the match sounded, the lights around him also began to change, becoming brighter.
In an instant, both of their arms stretched out simultaneously, and they charged forward towards each other in a highly swift and violent posture. A series of afterimages flashed through the surroundings with a rumble.
The collision between the two began, and they instantly attacked each other. Many people were paying attention to this in the outside world, wanting to know the outcome of their confrontation.
By now, their information was exposed and was made public. Some basic information was not a secret, and people could find out if they asked around. Therefore, people around understood the significance of this battle.
This was the first time a battle between two Beastmasters of at least third rank appeared in this league.
It wasn’t that a battle of two people above the third rank was rare. Chen Heng’s previous opponent, the youth from the first battle, was also at third rank. However, it was undoubtedly not perfect, as he was merely a temporary breakthrough, and he wasn’t a Beastmaster either.
Not only did their martial art cultivation reach a terrifying third rank, but they were also Beastmasters. This battle was going to be interesting.
With such expectations, everyone turned their gazes over, wanting to watch this top-notch match. And under their gazes, the result of the first exchange had already appeared.
On the spacious arena, the two of them were clashing against each other. Their powers were constantly colliding, producing terrifying sounds. Strong winds were passing by. The two of them were fighting with each other, causing the strong winds in the surroundings to be stirred up. In an instant, it was as if a storm had set off.
The collision of power and force had begun. Being in the middle of it, each of their movements and every little thought flashing between them was exceptionally shocking, causing people to feel a wave of terror. The surrounding space began to freeze. Vaguely, an invisible force field surrounded this place, forming a small-scale domain.
It was a draw.
The confrontation between the two was surprisingly a draw, and there was no distinction between the two. Once this result was announced, the people around were shocked.
“He blocked him…”
In the quiet living room, Liu Rou held her heart. At this time, she only felt that her heart was beating a little fast. She had never thought of this outcome because Wang Zhong wasn’t anyone else but a top genius from another academy and the future successor of a martial arts family.
Not only was he talented, but he also had conditions that ordinary people couldn’t imagine. He had bathed in the blood of the Space Behemoth since he was still an infant, undergoing baptism time and time again. He was also a Beastmaster who had received countless resources to support him. He had already been a third rank martial artist since a few years ago.
Compared to the young man Chen Heng had fought before, Wang Zhong’s strength was undoubtedly much stronger, so strong that no one would have the courage to face him.
However, even so, the two were evenly matched. Chen Heng still blocked him. Although the battle had just begun, Chen Heng did not obtain an overwhelming victory or defeat. This outcome had made people consider many possibilities.
If Chen Heng could enjoy the same conditions as Wang Zhong, would he perform better than he is now? Indeed, compared to Wang Zhong’s conditions, Chen Heng had nothing.
Although he had entered the Dragon City Academy, his background was very ordinary. Before he was chosen and invested by the Black Dream Group, there was no force behind investing in resources and nurturing him.
However, he could still fight Wang Zhong to this extent on the battlefield. He had done something that Yang Ke and the others could not do. Moreover, he was much younger than Wang Zhong, around six to seven years different in terms of age.
Undoubtedly, this showed that Chen Heng was above Wang Zhong in terms of talent alone. At least in terms of the strength of a martial artist.
‘If he could be given sufficient resources to nurture…’
‘He could reach this stage by just relying on himself, even without the support of any force. Then what if there were people supporting him in the future? How far could this genius go?’
Looking at Chen Heng’s performance, many people had this thought flash through their minds.
This couldn’t help but make Liu Rou smile, as to her, this was undoubtedly a good thing. The more people value Chen Heng, the more investment they would give him. It also meant that she could obtain more benefits to a certain extent..
