The already sultry air on Chizhao Island became even more intense and unbearable due to the tense atmosphere in the arena. The dead souls watching the battle were already feeling more and more difficult to breathe, not to mention Xiong Man and Bing Yan who were fighting. Although the ring match had just started, both of them were already sweating and their whole bodies were hot.
After being caught by Xiong Man just now, Bingyan began to face Xiong Man's true strength again. He moved his arm back and forth, which made Xiong Man twist his arm painfully, and said with a sneer: "It seems that it is no accident that you entered the finals. !”
At this moment, Xiong Man sighed in his heart, only complaining that if he had more combat experience just now, he wouldn't have allowed Bingyan, who had been captured by him, to escape again. At this moment, he had clearly felt the change in the aura around Bingyan. He understood that once Bingyan became serious, it would be extremely difficult for him to have such a good opportunity as just now, and just now he used defense as offense to find The opponent's sneak attack strategy had been seen through, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and take the initiative.
The bear man suddenly bowed his back, his head raised slightly, his legs spread naturally, and his arms hung easily to the ground. Everyone has seen this special posture of his in the previous arenas. It is a signal for him to take the initiative to attack. When he rushes forward at a high speed, he will use his two arms to assist, generating a strong forward momentum, just like a real bear. Use this power to tear through the opponent's defense.
But Bingyan would not sit still and wait for death. He pounced in the direction of the bear man almost at the same time. The dead souls all around were holding their breath and concentrating. They saw the two tall bodies of Xiong Man and Bingyan slamming into each other, and then the two of them continued to attack each other at extremely fast speeds.
Although Xiong Man's pair of iron fists couldn't match the speed of Bing Yan's wolf claws, the power of each blow was obviously stronger than his. Bingyan also discovered this, so he continued to speed up his attack rhythm. Although the power of each of his moves is not great, the accumulated damage to Bear Man is increasing due to his absolute advantage in speed.
Bear Man was busy defending and soon fell into a disadvantage. As the injuries on his body continued to increase, he became more and more impatient and no longer as calm as before. But although I was anxious in my heart, my body couldn't muster the strength, and I couldn't find a better way to fight back. Bingyan took advantage of the victory and pursued him, attacking in the east and west. First he pretended to attack his abdomen, but in fact he scratched his left eye with a claw from his forehead.
Blood quickly filled Xiong Man's eye sockets. The feeling of being injured in the boundless heaven was not much better than when he was alive. He felt as if half of his face had been torn apart by the claws of Bingyan, and he could not open his left eye at the moment. He had no choice but to squint his eyes and take a few steps back.
"Sure enough, the ice eyes are still amazing!"
"Did you see clearly what he did just now? It was so beautiful!"
"I see that the bear man is seriously injured now. If I were him, I would just admit defeat. It doesn't matter who is the boss in this shitty place. Why fight to the death?"
"Bear man, give in!"
Some of the dead souls watching around began to lament the power of the ice eyes, while others began to persuade the injured bear man to admit defeat. However, Xiong Man ignored their words. Even though the injuries on his face and body combined were unbearably painful, he never thought of giving up his plan like this.
And that Bingyan never thought of giving him the chance to admit defeat. At this moment, the premonition of victory and the shouts of the dead souls around him made him crazy. The only thing he wanted to do was to make the powerful enemy in front of him fall to the ground as soon as possible.
He once again launched a series of attacks at the bear man. The bear man made fists and crossed his hands to protect his head while continuing to retreat. Unknowingly, his back was already attached to the thick rope at the edge of the ring. If One more step back and he's automatically out.
Just when everyone thought he was bound to lose, he concentrated his spiritual power and opened his two arms at once. The moment when Bingyan's offensive stopped due to the vibration of his own arms, he suddenly hit him with a straight punch. stomach.
Bingyan spit out a mouthful of blood with an "ouch" sound, and Xiong Man took the opportunity to return to the center of the ring. His left eye still didn't dare to open, but there was an indescribable determination on his face. After Bingyan turned around, he stretched out his right hand and greeted him a few times in the same manner as Bingyan. He looked so relaxed, as if the serious injury he had suffered before had no impact on him.
Bing Yan was shocked by Xiong Man's sudden aura, and was stunned for a moment. Xiong Man took this opportunity to wipe the blood off his face with his hands, and tentatively opened his eyes. He found that he was lucky. The attack of the ice eyes did not damage his eyes. After his vision became clear, he became more and more calm.
At this time, a Bingyan supporter next to him reminded him: "Bingyan, move to the middle quickly, you will be out of line soon!"
Bing Yan came back to his senses and moved to the center of the ring, but still kept a certain distance from Xiong Man.
Xiong Man saw his panic and deliberately took a step forward to tease him. As expected, Bingyan was so frightened that he took two steps back. Xiong Man knew that he had an advantage in terms of momentum, and whether he could win this fight depended on it now. He struck out again, first swinging an iron fist towards Bingyan's chin. Although he dodged it, he then raised his leg and kicked his knee. Bingyan lost his center of gravity and shook for a moment, and Xiong Man followed up and punched him a few more times, one of which hit Bingyan's head.
At this time, Bingyan's eyes were dizzy due to the punch on his head, and his feet were weak. He felt that his defense had been completely penetrated by the bear man. Suddenly he felt a gust of wind coming from the left side of his face, heading towards his temple. He knew in his heart that if Xiong Man's punch hit him, he would definitely die. Death in the infinite heaven means the death of the spirit body. Destruction and permanent disappearance. But what he didn't expect was that Xiong Man's iron fist stopped just a hair's breadth from his temple. His opponent did not kill him, but spared his life.
This time Bing Yan had completely surrendered to Xiong Man's power. He gasped and raised a hand and said, "I lost!"
The air next to the ring fell into a dead silence following the scene that had just happened. After a while, the little monkey demon chess piece came back to his senses. Amid the cheers of the dead souls watching the battle, he struck the gong again. , then jumped into the ring and shouted loudly: "I declare Xiong Man to be the final winner of our Chizhao Island Martial Arts Tournament!"
Xiong Man used one arm to hold the already dangling Bingyan, and then waved his other hand in the air to signal the dead souls to quiet down, and said to them: "All the wages paid by the dead souls participating in the ring are paid by Xiong Man. I don’t want any money, I will return everything to you!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the already gradually weakening cheers of the dead souls around him suddenly became louder than before. Everyone couldn't believe their ears. They looked at each other and said:
"Did I hear it correctly?! Is it true?!"
"You heard me right, he did say that he would give back all the wages we paid!"
"Oh... Then didn't he win in vain?!"
"No matter what, Xiong Man is really loyal!"
"As expected of our foreman, I will follow Brother Bear from now on!"
…
Xiong Nan breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that his efforts were not in vain. He relied on this arena match to establish his prestige on Chizhao Island, and became a recognized strongman on Chizhao Island. The dead souls all lamented that he was not only super powerful, but also very noble in character. In addition, he was originally from Lanlian Island, but he respected and loved them, the dead souls on Chizhao Island, which also increased his popularity. .
After that, Xiong Nan concentrated on being his foreman on Chizhao Island, and soon became good brothers with the dead souls on Chizhao Island. Especially Bingyan, after that arena match, the two changed from incompatible enemies to a pair of close friends who support each other. When the twelve-year deadline was about to come, Xiong Nan was really reluctant to part with this place known as the hell among the seven islands in the infinite heaven, but he still had to make preparations to leave the island. He even decided to give up his position as foreman. Handed over to Bingyan.
But just one year before the agreed deadline, Fei Dao suddenly changed his mind and mentioned again the matter of holding a ring as soon as he arrived on the island. He also said that doing so was breaking the rules. He used this to One reason extended his stay as foreman for a hundred years. In fact, this is not what annoys Bear Man the most. What is even more unethical is that it increases the workload of the dead souls on the island and reduces their wages.
Chizhao Island is different from other islands. Food and daily necessities must be exchanged with the wages earned from one's own work. This will undoubtedly make the life of the souls on the island more difficult. Xiong Man protested many times because he was dissatisfied with the unjust hegemony, but was attacked several times by the Infinite Walkers. Under the persuasion of the dead souls on the island, he had to temporarily suppress the anger in his chest, but this suppression came back again. It's been so many years.
Even if he had not received the letter written by Ouyang Xueye from the Holy Boy Wuyou, he knew that sooner or later he would lead the dead souls on the island to rise up against the extraordinary Tao. Everyone had the same idea as him, Even if you fight to the death for dignity and power, you will never live in such a humble manner.
And Ouyang Xueye's letter was like a light of hope for the dark Chizhao Island. When Xiong Nan was still alive, the master of the demon world was Ouyang Xueye, so he also knew something about this demon king fox. To have such a king who is willing to disregard the identity of the dead souls on Chizhao Island and bring them under his command to jointly fight against the evil is exactly what they want. After the Extraordinary Dao is overthrown and Ouyang Xueye is elected as the new Lord of the Infinite Heaven, the situation on Chizhao Island will definitely improve.
He decided to tell Bingyan his thoughts first. After finishing work the next day, he specially called Bingyan to the roof of the weapons workshop. A small watchtower has been built there since a long time ago. Because it has been abandoned, it has become a good place for Xiong Man and Bingyan to drink and chat.
Xiong Man specially brought up a small jar of wine that he had saved up for two or three months of wages. The two of them stood on the watchtower and looked at the other sesame-sized islands on the lake.
"Bingyan, do you think now is the best time for us?" Xiong Man handed the wine jar to Bingyan and asked.
Bingyan did not answer him directly, but smiled and took the bottle of wine and took a few sips. Then he wiped the corner of his mouth with his hand and asked, "Do you still remember the arena match between us?"
"Why don't you remember?! Although more than ten years have passed, everything that day still seems like it happened yesterday. If I hadn't been lucky, I really wouldn't have been able to beat you!" Xiong Man said and laughed innocently.
"No, it is already destined that you will win against me, because your soul is much stronger than mine. In this infinite heaven, more or less power is not important. Only a strong soul is a real strong person. Yes You made me understand this. From that day on, I decided to follow you. No matter when, as long as you say the time has come, my ice eyes will become your sharp blade." Ice Eyes turned to look at Xiong Man He said that the scar on Xiong Man's left eye was exactly what he left.
"Good brother! But this is a battle that will cost everyone's life!" Xiong Man patted Bingyan's shoulder heavily and responded movedly.
"We are already dead souls, so why are we afraid of life and death?! In life, we were just gangsters or scoundrels, living a meaningless life. After death, instead of existing here endlessly, it is better to let this just The existing soul becomes meaningful!" Bingyan said firmly.
