Who Said That Martial Artists Did Not Like Money?

"Hello, everyone. This is the special program, Focus News, brought to you by the Federation's Information Martial Arts World Channel. I'm your host, Diana."

"I believe everyone should be able to guess the content of today's special topic. That's right, it's the West Cloud Planet's martial arts competition that will officially be held this morning."

"The martial arts competition held by West Cloud Planet can be said to be the grandest martial arts event held by the federation in recent years. According to the latest news, it has already attracted nearly 40,000 martial artists to register and participate. At the same time, it has attracted more than 200,000 spectators to the scene to watch the battle."

"In order to probe deeper into this Martial Competition, we have invited two guests…"

The camera turned and moved away from the beautiful and generous Diana with beautiful golden hair. It landed on a middle-aged man sitting on her left.

"One of them is a guest that everyone is very familiar with. He has participated in a few times in the past and is a famous martial artist in the federation who has stepped into the second-stage of the Heaven Control Realm, Rengal."

With long, fluffy brown hair and rough facial features, the lion-like Rengal raised his hand at the camera and smiled. However, he did not have any gentleness in him. Instead, he looked like a ferocious beast ready to eat people at any moment.

"The other is Miss Tang Xiaoyou, the deputy editor of 'Martial Arts Exploration', a famous martial arts expert."

The camera moved away from Rengal's beast-like face and turned to the right of Diana. Immediately, the scene changed. A young and beautiful face with exquisite and small features, filled with the characteristics of the Earth's East Asian descent, appeared in front of the camera.

The woman smiled at the camera. Although she was not as beautiful and charming as Diana, she was much more comfortable to look at.

"Do you have anything to say about this West Cloud Planet's martial artist competition?"

After introducing the two guests, Diana asked their opinions as usual.

Rengal was just about to speak when Tang Xiaoyou spoke first. "To be honest, I don't think much of the martial arts competition held by West Cloud Planet."

"Oh? Why?" Diana asked in surprise.

"According to what I know, the rewards given by the West Cloud Star's government for this martial artist competition are all corresponding federation coins. Although these rewards can attract a large number of martial artists to participate, I have always thought that for those truly powerful martial artists, what can attract them is definitely not meaningless money, but honor and the pursuit of martial arts."

"So, you don't think there are any true experts in your eyes in the West Cloud Planet's martial arts competition, right?" asked Diana.

"Perhaps there is, but there definitely won't be many." Tang Xiaoyou did not fall for this trick and did not say anything.

Diana smiled and turned to look at Rengal.

"Mr. Rengal, what do you think of Miss Tang Xiaoyou's viewpoint?"

"Nonsense!" Rengal sneered and exhaled. He actually showed disdain towards Tang Xiaoyou's words, "Who told you that true powerful martial artists look down on money?"

Tang Xiaoyou was not surprised by Rengal's unyielding retort. She raised her eyebrows and immediately asked, "Mr. Rengal, do you mean that you also like money?"

"Nonsense! Why wouldn't I like it?" Rengal sneered softly, as if he felt that Tang Xiaoyou's words were extremely laughable, "Do you think martial artists don't need to eat? Let me tell you, no matter how powerful a martial artist is, they still value money. If you don't believe me, go ask the two Star-Grade Martial Artists, Mu Yutong and Norman, who are holding the martial arts competition, if they like money?"

"The two of them are incomparably powerful Star-Grade Martial Artists. How can they be attracted by vulgar money?" Tang Xiaoyou immediately retorted.

Seeing that the two of them were actually planning to start an argument at the beginning of the show, Diana hurriedly interrupted them and said, "Just now, Martial Artist Rengal mentioned the two Star-Grade Martial Artists, Mu Yutong and Norman, who were invited to appear in this West Cloud Martial Competition. Then, let's connect to the reporters at the scene ahead and let them bring us live news to see if these two Star-Grade Martial Artists have already appeared at the scene."

The scene changed, and a scene with a high altitude view appeared.

Below was a huge piece of flat ground that was divided by rectangular venues. There were nearly a thousand densely packed areas.

Apart from the fifteen standard arena-like venues in the middle, the other places were only ordinary flat ground that were simply divided.

This scene had often appeared on the federation's information martial arts world channel recently. It even appeared on the first news channel of the federation. It was the venue of the West Cloud Planet's Martial Artist Competition.

From the sky, nearly a thousand venues were surrounded by people. At this moment, two figures were crossing each other in each venue. Clearly, two martial artists were fighting. The scene could be said to be abnormally grand.

Coupled with the background music specially provided by the federation, it made people's blood boil.

The camera lasted for about five seconds before it quickly sank and landed beside one of the venues.

A young girl appeared on screen.

"Hello everyone, I'm the live reporter, Yang Xirui. I've brought you the live report of the West Cloud Planet's martial arts competition."

The girl introduced herself slightly before turning around and pointing at the venue behind her and the surrounding crowd.

"Everyone can see that behind me is an ongoing competition between groups below the age of 20. Although it's only a low-level competition, it still attracted so many spectators to watch. From this, it can be seen how enthusiastic this West Cloud Martial Arts Competition is."

"Yang Xirui, have you seen these two Star-Grade Martial Artists, Mu Yutong and Norman?" asked Diana, who was still in the broadcast room.

Yang Xirui paused for a moment before answering, "Regarding the situation of the two Star-Grade Martial Artists that everyone is most concerned about, they had already personally appeared in front of the audience during the opening ceremony of the martial arts competition this morning. However, after the opening ceremony, the two of them had already left. It is said that only when the finals begin will the two of them appear at the scene later."

"Alright, please continue to introduce the situation to everyone."

"Yes."

Yang Xirui turned around and noticed that the two participating martial artists seemed to be prepared. He hurriedly gestured for the camera to follow.

"Everyone, look. These two participating martial artists are about to officially begin the competition. We all know that this West Cloud Planet's martial arts competition has specially divided martial artists below the age of 20 into another group, in hopes of selecting young martial arts geniuses in the federation. These two participating competitors look very young, but their figures are strong and healthy. Clearly, they are young martial artists with extremely solid foundations. I believe that there will definitely be a fierce battle between them. Let us look forward to them bringing us an exciting competition…"

Before Yang Xirui could finish speaking, she saw that the young martial artist on the right had already rushed over. Then, the young martial artist on the left tilted his body slightly, took a step forward, and kicked up, hitting the crotch of the opponent who was rushing over.
