Chapter 108: Becoming Famous Across the World in One Battle

Translator: CKtalon

Across the entire Earth, in terms of the number of martial arts experts, as well as military, economic, and other aspects, only the USA could match China! The USA also placed unprecedented importance on Global Crossfire and similarly broadcasted this battle.

“This expert from China named Xu Jingming is a force to be reckoned with.” The caucasian host was extremely solemn. “Alan Emelianenko finally got Xu Jingming to reveal his true strength.”

A scene of Xu Jingming completely unleashing his strength appeared beside him.

Boom!

Xu Jingming completely unleashed his Transcendent body’s speed. After grasping Beam Transformation, he was especially good at speed.

“Please take a look. The speed of his body… has reached an unimaginable 129 meters per second!” The host pointed at the verified data in the virtual world. “This is the highest speed humans have reached since Global Crossfire began! Tejano Xire’s speed reached 107 meters per second, while Miyagawa Meishin reached 106 meters per second. Tiger Fussen reached 115 meters per second, but China’s Xu Jingming’s speed is much faster… He’s much faster than Tiger Fussen.”

A guest beside him also said, “According to our sources, Xu Jingming practices Heavenly Python Evolution and not an evolutionary method that’s good at speed. For him to be so fast, it’s obvious that his overall strength has reached an extremely high level.”

“Watch this last move.” The host pointed at Xu Jingming’s terrifying strike that sent Alan Emelianenko’s shield flying, reducing him to nothingness. “Alan has amazing shield techniques, but it was sent flying by the strike. The light armor worn by Alan was completely pulverized, and he was instantly reduced to nothingness.”

“This strike is Xu Jingming’s true strength.” The guest sighed as well before pointing at the slow-motion replay. “Watch this sneak attack as well. This arrow is an armor-piercing arrow with a maximum speed of 703 meters per second. It suddenly shot out about 60 meters behind Xu Jingming, and the arrow was only in the air for about 0.1 seconds! Xu Jingming had his back to this arrow, yet he sensed it. As he turned his head, he easily reached out and grabbed it! Yes, he grabbed this arrow with his bare hand.”

The slow-motion replay made it very clear—Xu Jingming grabbed the arrow shaft first, and the shaft started shattering under the high-speed friction. The arrowhead then stopped in Xu Jingming’s palm, and the arrowhead itself completely deformed.

Following that, he swung! The arrow shot back the way it came.

“With a casual swing, he made the arrow reach 823 meters per second.” The guest was a little appalled. “I’ve never heard of Xu Jingming being good at projectiles. To have the arrowhead move so quickly with a single swing, it can only mean that Xu Jingming’s strength is insane. This sharpshooter from Russia… was also stunned by Xu Jingming’s bare-handed grab of the arrow, and his reaction was delayed for an instant! In that instant, the arrowhead penetrated his head.”

The host and guests recounted the final critical scene in detail.

“After Xu Jingming unleashed his full strength, the spearmanship he displayed and his ability to catch the arrow with his bare hand… all represent the highest levels in Global Crossfire right now,” the host said seriously. “Although I find it unbelievable, Xu Jingming is definitely an expert on the same level as Tiger Fussen.”

“I must say that Xu Jingming is definitely among the world’s top three,” the guest said.

“Global Crossfire only began a few days ago, and the experts around the world are still improving. The verdict still isn’t out,” the host said, “but there’s no doubt… Xu Jingming’s performance in this battle has reached the highest levels in Global Crossfire.”

Countless Americans were in an uproar as they commented. This was the first time they were watching China’s Xu Jingming livestream, but they remembered this name.

In the past, the United States of America only knew that… China had a world champion named Liu Hai. His name was practically known by everyone in the United States of America, but the others weren’t as famous.

And today, many people were talking about ‘Xu Jingming!’

“It’s insane, truly insane!”

“His speed is unprecedented in Global Crossfire. Even Alan’s shield techniques can’t block his spear technique. He can even grab an armor-piercing arrow at twice the speed of sound with his bare hand. This is the most insane enemy since Global Crossfire began! Our Miyagawa Meishin is only 17 years old, and he can be considered the world’s number one in terms of potential! However, he has encountered his greatest enemy, China’s Xu Jingming!”

In Japan’s livestream, the two hosts were flabbergasted by Xu Jingming’s strength.

Ordinary people didn’t understand what was going on during the livestream and only felt that Xu Jingming was terrifying. But with the livestream’s ‘slow-motion replay’ and the detailed commentary, ordinary people who had been practicing martial arts and weapons in the virtual world also understood how terrifying China’s Xu Jingming was!

Strength and speed were the easiest to understand.

The quality of Xu Jingming’s body gave countless people around the world a suffocating pressure.

******

If countless viewers in other countries felt pressured, countless people in China felt excited!

“This is an absolute suppression of strength,” the male guest, Jin Fan, said excitedly. “Before this battle, nobody expected Alan Emelianenko… to be killed by Xu Jingming in a single all-out strike! This is Xu Jingming’s strength—he’s now the world’s strongest! Yes, the world’s strongest! I’m not wrong; Xu Jingming has displayed the greatest strength in all the battles that have been fought in Global Crossfire.”

“Perhaps the others have held back, but in terms of the strength they have displayed, Xu Jingming is the world’s strongest!” Jin Fan had already become Xu Jingming’s fanatical fan. “Xu Jingming was only ranked eighth in the world when the Firestarter Cup ended! Alan Emelianenko was third in the world. And after more than a month, he has left Alan in the dust! This growth speed… is Xu Jingming’s most terrifying aspect.

“I predict that Xu Jingming will become more and more terrifying at this speed. He’ll make the other experts in the world only see his back! He might even become the new world champion!” Jin Fan said excitedly.

“Calm down, calm down,” Liu Xin said with a smile. “Jin Fan, I know you’re very excited, and so am I. However, there are also a few other experts who have won every match. For example, Tiger Fussen and Tejano Xire won their matches very easily. They might still be holding back their strength. There’s also our Teacher Liu Hai. The strength Teacher Liu Hai displayed in the past wasn’t his all. He also hasn’t participated in Global Crossfire to date.”

Jin Fan shook his head. “Just from defeating Alan, I believe that Xu Jingming will be the strongest competitor in the world in the future!”

Countless Chinese viewers felt pumped.

In the past few days, the experts in China had lost quite a number of matches, so they felt stifled.

“Xu Jingming is impressive!”

“In his first Global Crossfire match, a match against Alan Emelianenko at that—he cleaved the latter into nothingness with a single strike! He grabbed an armor-piercing arrow moving at twice the speed of sound with his bare hand and threw it at more than twice the speed of sound with a single hand!”

“Fang Yu is indeed far inferior to Xu Jingming.”

“I feel that Liu Hai and Xu Jingming are at the highest level in China. Everyone else is far inferior!”

“Yes, I also think that Xu Jingming’s strength might be about the same as Liu Hai’s.”

“Xu Jingming’s growth is much faster. After all, Liu Hai was far ahead of him when the virtual world first began.”

“Awesome, awesome. I feel like I’ve become a fanatical fan! Why is Xu Jingming’s battle so cool?”

“I’m wondering why despite everyone practicing the same evolutionary methods, my speed is only 20 meters per second, but his speed is 129 meters per second. Will a person like me be crushed by him alone even when 10,000 of me form an army?”

“How inhuman!”

At this moment, the number of Xu Jingming’s fans increased rapidly. In the past, many Chinese citizens were just casual fans, but Xu Jingming’s loyal fans and fanatical fans were rapidly rising.

Whoosh.

After the competition ended, Xu Jingming went to the livestream stands and came to his girlfriend, Li Miaomiao.

At this moment, his parents and match teammates, as well Team Pearwood’s members, were gathered.

“Jingming, well done.” Xu Hong and his wife smiled at their son, feeling extremely pleased and proud.

“You pumped me up to the point that I want to fight a match. Sigh, it’s a pity that I’m still a little short of Divine.” Grandpa Xu sighed and patted Xu Jingming on the shoulder. “Grandson, keep going! Charge all the way to become world champion!”

“Yes, Grandpa.” Xu Jingming nodded.

“Old Xu, please accept my gaze of admiration!” Heng Fang rushed forward, his eyes burning. He still had thoughts of competing with Xu Jingming when the virtual world first launched, but the gap only increased with time. The gap between them during the Firestarter Cup was already huge, and it was now ridiculously huge.

Heng Fang understood… In the past, he could match Xu Jingming because the latter broke his leg at the age of 20.

Weren’t Lei Yunfang, Gao Chong, Yang Yu, and the others—who had been world champions in the past—thrown in the dust? Heng Fang couldn’t catch up. It wasn’t that he was weak; rather, it was because Xu Jingming was a monster.

“I heard from the host that more than 50 countries around the world live-streamed this battle. At its peak, the number of viewers exceeded 2.8 billion,” Wang Yi said. “I believe that many countries that aren’t live-streaming this battle will air it! The videos of the battle will also spread globally… More and more people will watch this battle. Most people around the world will want to watch this battle. You became famous from this battle alone, and the entire world knows about you.”

Xu Jingming nodded and smiled. Although he was a little happy, he was more concerned about how many people in the world could be his match!
