535: Chapter 534 i
Throughout the competition, Wang Dadong watched intently, waiting for the woman who would fight without regard for her own life to appear.
He didn’t know if she could still make it to the next round.
Until the penultimate match, the woman hadn’t shown up.
Could it be that she was too injured from the previous match to participate?
At this mont, Wang Dadong’s heart was in conflict, as he both anticipated her appearance and hoped she wouldn’t show up.
What Wang Dadong looked forward to was whether the woman could create another miracle.
His reluctance stemd from the fear that, given the woman’s fighting style, she might end up being killed in this match.
After all, by now, two Saints had already appeared.
Heaven knows if there were any other Saints still in hiding.
Even if they weren’t Saints, it was likely dangerous for the woman, as she had just broken through to the Superhuman Realm.
“Miss i, the last contestant, please co to the stage,” the referee announced over the microphone, signaling the start of the final match.
i’s opponent was already standing in the arena, radiating a powerful aura.
Although not a Saint, he was still incredibly strong, his face filled with supre confidence.
He had watched i fight before; she fought desperately.
Desperate fighting could unleash significant potential, but if the gap in strength was too great, then no amount of desperation could prevent an inevitable defeat.
However, it seed Miss i was nowhere in sight.
“Miss i, please co to the stage,” the host called out again when i failed to show up.
Murmurs began spreading through the crowd.
“Could it be that i is too injured to fight?”
“It seems that this is as far as i can go.
After all, her strength was just at the Superhuman Realm; making it this far was already quite difficult.”
“I had wanted to see if she could pull off another miracle, but now it seems impossible.”
So were disappointed, others sighed.
“Miss i, please co to the stage imdiately, or you will be considered defeated after three minutes,” the referee said, his brow furrowing.
This was the first ti that soone had failed to show up for their match.
“Two minutes left…” the referee began the countdown.
“One minute left…”
“…”
“Thirty seconds left…”
“It looks like i isn’t going to appear…” people shook their heads.
“Ten seconds left, I declare the winner of this match is…”
Just as the referee was about to declare i’s opponent the victor, that petite figure surprisingly made an appearance.
“I…
am…
here…”
i took step by step toward the ring, each one seemingly requiring trendous effort as if even standing was difficult for her.
Yet her gaze remained resolute.
Seeing i appear, Wang Dadong was also sowhat astonished.
The situation i was in was dire, to say the least; not to ntion fighting, even standing seed to be a struggle.
Watching that frail figure move step by step towards the ring, many in the audience felt a wave of sadness wash over them.
Knowing death was certain, yet still proceeding.
What kind of belief was sustaining her?
“I’m pledging five million to i!”
Suddenly, soone from among the audience spoke up.
“I’m pledging ten million to i!”
“I also pledge ten million to i!”
“…”
Miss i, although she was only a beginner-level powerhouse in the Superhuman Realm, had already earned the respect of countless people with her performance.
This is what a true martial artist looks likes, one who never falls.
In the face of people’s rewards, Miss i’s eyes didn’t show the slightest change, still identical to before, that was the look of soone destined to win.
Although her opponent was many tis stronger than she was, she still believed she would win.
This had nothing to do with strength, it was an unwavering belief!
“Miss i, your body can’t fight any longer, just give up,” even the referee couldn’t bear to watch any longer.
“I, I can still fight…
I, will definitely win!” Miss i’s tone carried an unparalleled determination.
The referee shook his head helplessly, since i refused to admit defeat, they could only continue the fight.
Miss i’s opponent was at least at the Superhuman Realm Advanced level, a whole two realms above her, and considering her current state of being at the end of her strength, the only way for her to win the match would be a miracle.
And what if she did win this match?
Stronger opponents awaited, and even with good luck advancing further, there were still two Saints ahead.
Junior level in the Superhuman Realm defeating a Saint, was that possible?
Impossible, even Wang Dadong, when he was at the beginner level of Superhuman Realm, only had the fate of being instantly defeated by a Saint.
But i seed unaware, still insistent on fighting.
“Do you really insist on fighting?”
Miss i’s opponent finally spoke up.
“Yes!”
Miss i’s voice didn’t waver at all.
“Alright then…” Miss i’s opponent took a deep breath and slowly said, “If you insist on fighting, then…
I admit defeat.”
“I admit defeat.”
What?
When everyone heard Miss i’s opponent conceding, they were all dumbfounded.
Her opponent had actually surrendered voluntarily.
Could it be that he was also moved by i’s indomitable spirit?
Even i wore a confused expression, not understanding why her opponent would suddenly give up.
“Are you sure about your surrender?” the referee was also sowhat taken aback.
What was going on?
He was quite confused.
All it would have taken was a casual move to win, yet to concede like this was extrely illogical.
The man nodded and said, “Yes, I admit defeat.
It’s not out of sympathy for her, but because I too am at the end of my strength.
My last fight left
gravely wounded.
The ferocity I just displayed was all an act, and right now, I’m not much better off than i.
If I don’t admit defeat, I could very well be killed by i.
Besides, even if I won this round, I couldn’t possibly win the championship.
Having witnessed a martial artist like i, I am already content.”
After he spoke, his aura instantly wilted, and his complexion turned deathly pale.
It had indeed been a bluff.
Originally, he had hoped that his opponent would be intimidated by his ferocity and surrender, but he had t i instead.
In i’s dictionary, there was only combat; surrender wasn’t an option.
“Well then, in that case, I declare the winner of this match to be…
i!” the referee announced the final result.
The final outco was indeed bewildering.
i, a junior-level fighter in the Superhuman Realm, had actually advanced to the top 32.
But this wasn’t necessarily good news, as even more difficult battles lay ahead of her.
i walked off the platform step by step, her slender figure moving countless people to tears.
Wang Dadong too was silently shaking his head and sighing.
i was so persistent; she must have had her reasons.
Everyone has their choices, and since this was i’s decision, he couldn’t stop her.
“Master…” Liu Tong gently rubbed her eyes, which were red, seeing her own reflection in i’s persona.
If Wang Dadong hadn’t co this ti, perhaps she would have been like i, knowing full well she was like a moth to a fla, yet still resolute.
Wang Dadong gently patted Liu Tong’s back.
“Don’t worry, your master is here.”
“Master, am I being too willful…?” Liu Tong looked up, her voice wistful.
Wang Dadong nodded emphatically.
“You certainly are.”
“Co on, Master, can’t you give
a little bit of face?”
The young policewoman pouted dissatisfiedly.
