Chapter 409: Chapter 314: The Final_1 Chapter 409: Chapter 314: The Final_1 Finally, the grand finale of the Fighting God Championship began.
Duanmu Huai stood on the Duel Arena facing the man in front of him, who was wearing sunglasses. The latter was staring back at Duanmu Huai before he started to speak.
“Where is your armor set?”
Hearing the question from the man in sunglasses, Duanmu Huai raised an eyebrow and asked in return. The man in sunglasses merely smirked.
“No reason, I’m just kindly reminding you that if you used that armor set while fighting me, you might last longer.”
“You’re quite confident, but do you have the skills to back it up?”
A glint of frost flickered through Duanmu Huai’s eyes, as the other party spread his hands.
“Just a suggestion… of course, if you’re not interested, that’s fine too… Let me show you my strength. Maybe it will change your mind.”
Following his words, in the next moment, Duanmu Huai saw the tall and thin man in front of him clench his fists, let out a roar, then his muscles instantly inflated like a balloon. In just a brief moment, the originally thin man had become a muscular Hulk-like brute. His arms were even thicker than the bodies of ordinary people, exuding sheer power and explosiveness.
“So… let’s get started!”
“ROUND ONE! READY———GO!”
Just as the announcer’s voice fell, Duanmu Huai felt a whirlwind rushing towards him. The man in sunglasses suddenly raised his right hand, swinging a punch at him. In response, Duanmu Huai cried out in anger, clenched his fist, and met his blow head-on!
Their fists collided, Duanmu Huai didn’t move an inch, while the man in sunglasses wobbled slightly, a hint of surprise flashing across his face.
“You dare to talk big with your level of performance?”
Duanmu Huai clenched his fists, glaring at the man in sunglasses. He had no intention of wasting time on him. Fortunately, judging from this guy’s combat style, he, like Duanmu Huai, relied on power rather than skill. This meant Duanmu Huai did not have to worry about figuring out how to counter him — clearly, it was a case of the bigger the fist, the more likely one was to win this contest!
The man in sunglasses unleashed another punch, aiming straight for Duanmu Huai’s chest. Duanmu Huai again threw a punch, clashing directly with his attack.
With Duanmu Huai’s roar, his Iron Fists exploded forward, charging directly at the man in sunglasses. The latter remained silent, raising his hands time and time again to block Duanmu Huai’s onslaught. However, as Duanmu Huai’s roars and punching speed increased, his two arms seemingly morphed into countless shadowy waves, directly breaking through the man in sunglasses defense!
“Ora Ora Ora Ora! Ora!!”
The torrential flurry of punches mercilessly hammered on the man in sunglasses’ solid body, undoubtedly showcasing Duanmu Huai’s extraordinary strength. His fist striking against his opponent’s body was like striking a sandbag, even giving off a vaguely rebounding feel. But Duanmu Huai didn’t back down, he used all his strength and finally, with one heavy punch, sent the man in sunglasses flying!
The latter spun in the air like a heavy truck before crashing down onto the ground, creating a dull thud.
At this moment, Duanmu Huai also released his clenched fists and heaved a sigh of relief. The main issue with Platinum Star was that it was a sound-controlled skill. So, every time Duanmu Huai used it, he had to continuously shout “Ora” to control the rhythm and speed of his punches. As a result, after each attack, Duanmu Huai felt like he’d belted out a song, having used up not only his strength but also his voice.
“Well done, Mr. Duanmu!”
Seeing this, Honoka clenched her fists and yelled. In her memory, no one had ever been able to withstand Duanmu Huai’s flurry of blows!
However, the very next moment, the smile faded from Honoka’s face.
“Not bad, you’re quite interesting.”
The man in sunglasses slowly stood up, dusted himself off. Just now, he had been hit by Duanmu Huai’s punches. But not only was he unharmed, he appeared to be even stronger.
“No wonder you’re so confident. Using only 80% of my power against you was indeed careless. In that case, let me show you what 100% of my power looks like!”
As the man in sunglasses spoke, the muscles on his body began to wriggle rapidly. Seeing this, Honoka was left dumbfounded.
Honoka could swear, she had never seen such a thing before. Under the skin of the man in sunglasses, patches of muscles squirmed and reformed as if they had a mind of their own. It was as if what lay under his skin were not muscles, but some twisted shape-shifting creature.
In a blink of an eye, the man in sunglasses’ body had transformed again. Although he still looked human, his physique emanated an oppressive force that was otherworldly. Even Honoka, who was standing in the passageway far away from the Duel Arena, felt her legs go weak, as if she was about to kneel involuntarily.
