Bai Hun's opponent and his escort walked away from the section between the stands and the stage, and sat somewhere in the stands.
This was a one elimination competition. A single loss would eliminate you. Although Bai Hun's opponent was very talented, he could not be compared to Bai Hun.
After a minute of waiting, two more tokens flew up. They were the number 3 and 4 tokens. The number three token belonged to Ying Xiong, while the number four token was in the possession of one of the other unnamed youths.
Ying Xiong nervously got on the stage under the encouragement of Zhou Fan, while his opponent hopped on in a leap.
As soon as they were both on, the barrier covered the stage and numbers appeared.
From the second they stood on the stage, it was clear that Ying Xiong had a disadvantage. Firstly, he was only 13 years old.
His opponent was 250 years old. While his opponent was considered a young woman, he was essentially a toddler.
Luckily, Ying Xiongs talent was helpful. He immediately adopted the plan of defending until he got used to fighting.
After all, he had never been taught how to fight. He had only sparred a few times with a few people.
As for his techniques, they were all from the human race. The human race's current status was that of one of the weakest races in the Zhou Galaxy.
The techniques he had were no better. Even those from his ancestors were still in the Huang Long academy, far away from the human race.
As Ying Xiong continued to think, the numbers lowered. Eventually, the numbers turned into the word fight, and he jumped backwards. The arena's space had already expanded.
As he jumped backwards, he used his Buddhist Qi to create a barrier. Despite his immense talent, he only had one affinity, Buddhist Qi.
His opponent on the other end did not chase him. Instead, she pulled out a bow and pulled back on it. As she released the string, a fire arrow formed and shot towards Ying Xiong.
Ying Xiong barely moved to the side before it reached the round sphere of buddhist Qi surrounding him and bounced off.
In an instant, Ying Xiongs combat talent was shown. Seeing how the sphere barrier would block attacks that wouldn't have even hit him, wasting Qi, Ying Xiong shrunk the barrier to only cover his body.
Now, he was shrouded in a golden light. It seemed as though there was no barrier at all.
As his opponent pulled her bowstring back again, Ying Xiong ran towards her. He knew that he couldn't fight long range with a bow user.
Another fire arrow came, but this time it also had bow and arrow Qi on it. Ying Xiong attempted to dodge, but the arrow was faster than before, hitting him and pushing him back 50 steps.
Luckily, he was unharmed.
He ran towards her again, this time in a random pattern. As another arrow came towards him, he successfully dodged.
His opponent responded by sending three arrows at the same time. Ying Xiong managed to dodge two, but one hit him, sending him far back again.
This continued for multiple minutes until finally, Ying Xiong felt he was ready. He was now 50 feet closer than when he started running towards his opponent.
It could be seen as a gain, but he had lost half of his Qi defending. The barrier he was using was the human race's most used technique.
The barrier would take very little Qi to sustain and only truly activated when hit. Depending on the power of the attack, an amount of Qi would be used.
It could be seen as a technique that could drain every speck of his Qi, but it was very practical.
The next time he was hit with an arrow, Ying Xiong decided to go on the offense. After using a lot of Qi, a bell formed around him. This bell was a defense technique.
The bell would help him resist getting knocked back every single time he was hit.
Ying Xiong charged forward with the bell covering his body, but as a result, he could not dodge.
His opponent let out hundreds of arrows every second knowing that Ying Xiong could no longer avoid her attacks.
Each attack was weaker than her earlier arrows, but they used up a similar amount of Qi for a lot more damage in total.
As Ying Xiong was within 50 feet of the woman, she ran around him and extended the distance again.
Ying Xiong hadn't even thought of that possibility. His battle experience was truly too little.
After realizing that he was back where he started and only had a third of his total Qi left, Ying Xiong decided to perform an all out move.
It would use up all of his Qi in a single attack.
Once again, he ran towards the woman. The bell now had many cracks across its surface. It was different from his other defense technique.
The bell took a certain amount of Qi at activation and remained until it was destroyed or the user willed it to go away.
Now, it was on the verge of breaking.
As Ying Xiong got within a hundred feet of the woman, the bell was a few arrows away from being shattered.
Only then did Ying Xiong make his move. He jumped up in the air and pulled his fist back as far as he could.
"BUDDHA'S FIST" He yelled out as he punched forward.
Every single bit of his Qi was drained from his body in that moment. As his fist fully extended, a giant golden fist appeared and shot towards his opponent at an insane speed.
This was where Ying Xiongs talent was truly shown.
Before the girl could even react, the buddha's fist had reached her. Her entire body was smashed by the gigantic buddha's fist as she and Ying Xiong were teleported out of the stage.
Her underestimation of Ying Xiong had led to her loss. If she was even slightly wary, she would have put up some defenses in advance.
"Second fight winner! Ying Xiong!"
