NOVEL WEB Chapter 77: The Reason for the Dinosaurs' Extinction! It's Because Their Forelimbs Were Short! Unable to Applaud for Me!_2
Xu Haolong didn't think much and blurted out without a second thought, "Don't ask; asking means I don't know."
But less than half a second after he finished speaking, Xu Haolong suddenly came to his senses.
He couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth and said, "My god! When did I ever lose a match to you on the platform? Aren't we still in the middle of the fight!?"
Seeing Xu Haolong's reaction delay that could circle the Earth seven times, Su Yan just narrowed his eyes and smiled. "No problem, you'll lose soon."
As soon as he finished speaking, the distance between the two was less than one meter.
And just at that moment, Xu Haolong, who was originally cowering in a corner like a tortoise, suddenly burst out and lashed out at Su Yan in front of him.
"Sterilization Leg!" Xu Haolong yelled at the top of his lungs.
He then viciously lifted his right leg and aimed a powerful downward kick at Su Yan's lower body.
"WHOOSH WHOOSH WHOOSH!!!"
The attack speed of Xu Haolong's downward kick was extremely fast, creating a tearing sound in the airflow as it shot straight for Su Yan's groin.
Faced with such an unscrupulous low blow from Xu Haolong, Su Yan simply dodged to the side and cleverly avoided the attack. However, Xu Haolong wasn't one to be trifled with!
He reacted quickly. Seeing that his strike had missed, he immediately retracted his leg and, joining his palms together, thrust fiercely at Su Yan. At the same time, he followed a rule: when unleashing a killer move, one must always shout out the name of the technique loudly: "Thousand Year Kill!"
In the instant the palm tips struck out, Su Yan took a quick three-step retreat, dodging the Fatal Strike by a narrow margin.
Seeing another strike go amiss, Xu Haolong couldn't help but grow angry.
He continued his rapid assaults while loudly shouting out:
"Crow Flies on a Plane!"
"Monkey Steals Peaches!"
"Tornado Destroys the Parking Lot!"
"Little Fish Swim in the Water!"
"Mouse Runs Through the Maze!"
"Head Smashes Walnut!"
Xu Haolong's techniques were so numerous they dazzled the spectators, yet they were effective as well as flashy.
Each one looked more ferocious than the last!
The primary targets of each attack were always the eyes, nose bridge, throat, or groin—aiming for vital spots, every move was potentially lethal.
These fierce and ruthless techniques were the combat instincts he had honed over many years of hunting. Each and every move was designed to maximize damage, aiming to severely injure the opponent with a single blow.
Facing such vicious attacks from Xu Haolong, Su Yan chose not to meet force with force but maintained a rhythm of retreating as the enemy advanced.
He was actually quite curious to see what other bizarre techniques this Xu Haolong fellow could come up with.
The fight between the two was fiercely spectacular.
Soon, many spectators from other areas were drawn to their fight.
"Holy crap! Look! Some big shots are throwing down on Martial Arts Platform Number 6! That's so wild!"
"My god! What an overbearing presence; I can feel it all the way over here."
"This side is boring. Let's go, everyone, let's head over to Martial Arts Platform Number 6 to watch the excitement!"
In the blink of an eye, a quarter of the spectators in the entire square had run over to Martial Arts Platform Number 6 to watch the battle.
But how could such a small spectator area accommodate so many people?
It was instantly jam-packed; everywhere you looked, burly men were squeezed in tight. The entire spectator area was almost impassable.
Many of the contestants who were still competing had their attention drawn by this commotion.
They stopped their matches as if by agreement and turned their eyes toward Martial Arts Platform Number 6.
On 88 Martial Stages, which was some distance from Martial Arts Platform Number 6, a slightly slim boy asked the girl in front of him, "Qin Yao, do you know the guy fighting Xu Haolong on Martial Arts Platform Number 6?"
"His name is Su Yan, this year's most likely candidate from Luo City to become the top scholar of Nanjiang Province."
"The most likely? No way! Is he even better than Xu Haolong of the Luo City Xu Family?"
"Seeing is believing. If you're not in a hurry, why not watch for a while?"
Similar conversations were happening on other platforms as well.
Xu Haolong of the Luo City Xu Family had quite a reputation in the top student circles of Nanjiang Province. Almost all the top students from every city and school knew of him and viewed him as a competitor for the top scholar position.
Yet now, there was this unknown contestant who had managed to fight Xu Haolong for so long without being defeated.
It was hard not to arouse curiosity.
After all, Nanjiang Province wasn't that big, but it wasn't small either. There were only one or two top students in each city, and they more or less knew each other.
The sudden appearance of such a tough contender was truly baffling.
At this moment, the battle on Martial Arts Platform Number 6 was the center of everyone's attention. And at the same time, the battle on the platform had completely entered its white-hot stage.
"Black Tiger Sweeps Past Bald Eagle!"
"Crow of Rage Takes Off!"
"Sleeping Bear Wakes Up Furiously!"
"Hungry Wolf Advances!"
"Horsetail Swats Fly!"
Xu Haolong's attacks grew increasingly fierce. He chased Su Yan relentlessly but failed to land a single hit.
"Su Yan, are you just going to be a coward? Don't you dare fight me head-on?"
Seeing that no matter how he attacked, he still couldn't touch Su Yan, Xu Haolong couldn't help but grow exasperated, furious, and flew into a rage.
However, no matter how he tried to provoke him with words, Su Yan remained unmoved.
It was like he was toying with a monkey—hey, I'm handling this easily, I can win, but I'm just playing around.
"Su Yan, don't push me!"
Xu Haolong was about to lose it, feeling immensely insulted.
