685: Chapter 686: Startling and Thrilling

Feeling confident that victory was in his grasp, the Old Master of the Su Family relaxed and his mind started working overti.

He leisurely said to Zheng Zhijun, “Mr.

Zheng, today is a great day of joy as my two granddaughters are getting married.

Since you are here, you must have a cup of celebratory wine later.”

Zheng Zhijun, looking at the two people on the ground, flatly said, “That won’t be necessary, I will be returning soon.”

“Isn’t that a bit hasty?

Since you are already here, not even having a cup of wedding wine would seem quite impolite on my part.”

Although the Old Master of the Su Family seed casual, his eyes were fixed on Zheng Zhijun; he was eager to know Zheng Zhijun’s true intentions.

Zheng Zhijun turned his head to look at the Old Master of the Su Family and said, “Even if you win, that celebratory drink won’t an much, will it?

To think that two fine girls are about to marry…

Such a waste of heaven’s gifts.

You, as their grandfather, are truly ruthless.”

The Old Master of the Su Family’s face turned red and he said, “For girls, it’s good enough to marry into a good family.”

Zheng Zhijun gave a slight smile and said, “I really don’t enjoy watching such weddings; it makes

feel sorry for those two girls.”

“Ha…

Mr.

Zheng, since you speak that way, then we might as well call off this wedding.

Old Sun, I suppose you have no objections?”

The Patriarch of the Sun Family chuckled dryly and said, “When it cos to the marriage of our children, it’s better to let them decide.

We old folks shouldn’t interfere too much, should we?”

Because of Zheng Zhijun’s appearance, relations between the Sun Family and the Su Family had beco strained; now their conversation was entirely superficial.

“However…

it seems this matter is no longer up to you, Song Xiaodong might not necessarily lose,” Zheng Zhijun then said nonchalantly.

At that mont, both patriarchs looked toward the arena, their brows suddenly furrowing.

Su Zhentian, who had initially been dominating, now no longer held the advantage.

His battle with Song Xiaodong was evenly matched, with both displaying offense and defense.

The True Qi within Song Xiaodong had been rapidly improving lately, yet it was still impure; facing a master like Su Zhentian was precisely the best way to refine the True Qi within him.

In their last encounter, Song Xiaodong had only taken a few hits from Su Zhentian, which had significantly improved him; now having fought for so long, it was like his True Qi was being forged a thousand tis over, the benefits were simply indescribable.

Of course, such benefits required a master like Su Zhentian.

If it were soone less powerful, the sa effect wouldn’t be achieved, not even if he fought with Sun One; because Sun One was not as fierce as Su Zhentian.

The True Qi within Song Xiaodong beca increasingly pure, and his strength also improved during the fight until he was on par with Su Zhentian.

At this level, he couldn’t advance further; simply put, as the True Qi of both was on par, neither could overpower the other.

Now, what could determine the outco of their battle was their adaptability and mastery of moves.

This type of fight was even more exciting, with both exchanging blows, the sound of their fists and feet connecting was incessant.

It also seed more perilous as the victory or defeat appeared imminent, making all the spectators hold their breath.

Miao Qingqing and Miao Xuanxuan were now so tense that they sweated; however, they knew that they absolutely should not disturb Song Xiaodong at this ti.

They could only wait, but they were much more confident than the others, having witnessed Song Xiaodong becoming stronger, evolving from being passively beaten to exchanging blows with his opponent, perhaps soon even dominating Su Zhentian.

“Su Zhentian!”

It was unknown which of the Su Family’s Family Guards couldn’t help but shout out first, and then all the Family Guards of the Su Family followed suit, soon joined by all the mbers of the Su Family.

Although the mbers of the Sun Family were now outwardly aligned but inwardly estranged with the Su Family, they shared a common enemy in Song Xiaodong, and at this mont, they too raised their voices in support.

They were cheering for Su Zhentian, who represented the strongest combat strength of the Su Family.

They couldn’t accept the Su Family losing; every Family Guard shared a sense of family honor.

Su Zhentian seed invigorated, his joints cracking like popping beans, his body suddenly seed to grow taller.

With a loud shout, he used all his strength and launched a fierce attack against Song Xiaodong.

Song Xiaodong, however, responded calmly, his eyes gleaming intensely.

With every move, he deftly neutralized Su Zhentian’s attacks.

“Hi!” Song Xiaodong suddenly shouted loudly, seeming to burst forth with his final fighting strength.

The movents of their fists and feet were as fast as lightning, with the actions of regular experts now completely unable to keep up.

The True Qi carried in their punches and kicks had turned the grass on the ground into nothing more than dust, now swirling nonstop around the two fighters.

As they moved rapidly around the arena, the dust from the grass grew more and more until it ford a grass ball encasing them.

The audience could only see a huge grass ball rolling back and forth on the field, with Song Xiaodong and Su Zhentian completely out of sight.

All those present had their hearts in their throats; such a battle was unprecedented, sothing not even the experts from the Su and Sun Families had seen before.

After all, formidable fighters like Su Zhentian and Sun One usually resolved fights easily; it was rare to see a battle drag on without a clear victor.

Miao Qingqing and Miao Xuanxuan were sowhat afraid to watch at this point, yet they couldn’t help but look; they didn’t want to miss Song Xiaodong succeeding, but they were also afraid to see him fail.

At that mont, the Old Master of the Su Family was nearly having a heart attack.

If they lost, he couldn’t bear the consequences this ti—a billion US dollars, almost half of his family’s fortune.

Zheng Zhijun was also unable to stay calm, his hands gripping the arms of his chair tightly, staring fixedly at the green ball, just waiting for that mont when it would burst open.

By now, everyone understood that as soon as the green ball burst, it might an the battle had been decided.

Everyone was anticipating that mont, yet everyone also feared its arrival, the Sun Family included.

Boom!

A deafening explosion sounded.

The green ball burst suddenly, scattering it to bits, and the middle of the field looked like it was caught in a green, grassy rain.

In that shower of grass, Song Xiaodong and Su Zhentian stood still, five ters apart, neither moving an inch.

Who had won?

Everyone harbored the sa thought, yet now, no one dared to voice it, no one dared to make a sound.

Everyone waited, watching the two n in the center to deliver the answer.
