Tian Yi and Nie Xiao Dao moved at an incredible speed. Apart from a few individuals, almost no one could clearly see their movements. This clash between two powerful experts stirred a strange excitement among the onlookers.
Wang Wei was watching them with great interest. With his abilities, he could naturally follow their movements. He had to admit that both Tian Yi and Nie Xiao Dao were exceptionally strong.
One possessed the domineering aura forged in underground fighting rings, while the other carried the deadly killing intent cultivated through countless brushes with death.
Of course, Wang Wei was certain that even if he faced either of them, he wouldn’t be completely overwhelmed, though he also knew he had no chance of victory. After all, his specialty wasn’t in direct combat.
“Master Xiao, who do you think will win between the two?”
Shifting his gaze toward Xiao Yufan, Wang Wei’s expression carried a hint of respect. This man always exuded an air of mystery, one that Wang couldn’t quite decipher. Standing beside him, even someone as formidable as Tian Yi seemed to fade into the background.
“Their strengths are evenly matched, but Tian Yi should have the upper hand. After all, your opponent often determines your own strength. Xiao Dao has spent too long fighting against the trash in the ring, and his abilities have definitely not been fully tested.”
Xiao Yufan’s analysis was sharp and to the point. He could see that Nie Xiao Dao was at a slight disadvantage. Tian Yi’s attacks were fierce and precise, seemingly chaotic yet seamless. Xiao Dao was gradually being pushed into a defensive position.
Wang Wei simply nodded in agreement. Comparatively speaking, Tian Yi did seem to have the advantage. As a member of Tian Group, he had danced on the edge of life and death countless times.
“Enough, enough… I’m done.”
No one knew exactly how much time had passed, but the spectators were beginning to feel tired. Yet not a single person left, as they all found the match absolutely thrilling. At that moment, Nie Xiao Dao abruptly stepped out of the fight.
“Why stop?” Tian Yi also halted his movements, flashing to Xiao Yufan’s side in an instant. Seeing Nie Xiao Dao’s expression, he couldn’t help but smirk.
“If we keep going, I probably won’t win. It’s just you attacking while I defend. Eventually, I’ll just collapse from exhaustion. I can’t afford to lose face like that—I’m the leader of the Killing Hall after all.”
Nie Xiao Dao shot Tian Yi a glance, his eyes betraying a subtle shift. This man was even stronger than he’d imagined. It was one thing not to know until you fought—only through actual combat could one truly grasp the gap in strength.
“It’s not that you’re too defensive, but rather that your strength hasn’t been fully unleashed. How could a small underground ring allow you to reach your full potential?”
Standing beside them, Xiao Yufan finally spoke. Nie Xiao Dao was straightforward—he knew continuing the fight would bring him no advantage, so he chose to concede. In the entire Linjiang area, there were probably only a handful of people who could make Nie Sha Po Lang admit defeat.
“So how do I improve my strength? If Yi Ge is this strong, I don’t want my Killing Hall to be overshadowed by his Tiger Hall!”
Nie Xiao Dao wholeheartedly agreed with Xiao Yufan. In a place like the underground ring, how could he possibly unleash his full potential? For a long time now, barely five people had managed to last five rounds against him.
“Stay with Anmen, and you’ll definitely be able to unleash your true strength. Only through real life-or-death trials can one’s power truly grow. I think you already know this, don’t you?”
Xiao Yufan replied with a smile, without any sense of arrogance. Staying with Anmen would significantly enhance his strength—this was evident from how the Tian Group members had become increasingly formidable.
“What about Master Xiao’s strength?”
After a moment of hesitation, Nie Xiao Dao fixed his gaze once again on Xiao Yufan. That burning intensity hadn’t faded. Tian Yi was already extremely powerful—Nie couldn’t imagine what kind of man could command such a figure.
“You want to test me, don’t you?”
Seeing the look in Xiao Dao’s eyes, Xiao Yufan immediately understood. This guy was truly a martial arts fanatic—just beaten by Tian Yi, and already thinking about challenging him next.
“I just want to see Master’s strength…”
Scratching the back of his head, Xiao Dao looked genuinely simple and honest. This gesture caused Tian Yi and Wang Wei to burst into laughter. What a lively character he was.
Their conversation was clearly overheard by Tian Yi and Wang Wei. Tian Yi merely shrugged without saying much—he had been thoroughly defeated by Xiao Yufan before. Watching Xiao Dao get beaten up by the young master would actually bring him a strange sense of balance.
Wang Wei, on the other hand, felt a quiet anticipation. He had only heard from Tian Yi about Xiao Yufan’s strength but had never seen it firsthand. As the saying goes, seeing is believing. Only by witnessing Xiao Yufan’s power could he truly understand how formidable this man was.
“Fine then, I’ll grant your wish. But later, don’t say I was bullying you.”
Xiao Yufan didn’t refuse. He jumped down from the stands and slowly walked into the center of the crowd. Xiao Dao followed, stepping forward. Standing face to face with Xiao Yufan, he suddenly felt an unprecedented pressure.
“Tian Yi, how many moves do you think Xiao Dao can last against the young master?”
As soon as the two stepped forward, Wang Wei eagerly asked. Obviously, he wasn’t concerned about who would win, but rather how many moves Xiao Dao could survive.
Hearing Wang Wei’s question, Tian Yi simply raised one finger and gently shook it.
“Ten moves?” Wang Wei asked tentatively, though even that seemed hard to believe. Nie Xiao Dao’s strength was unquestionable—how powerful must someone be to defeat him in just ten moves?
“If I told you that I couldn’t even last one move against the young master, would you still believe Xiao Dao could survive ten rounds? If I’m not mistaken, one round will be more than enough for the young master to end this fight.”
Tian Yi’s smile carried a hint of bitterness. Thinking back to when Xiao Yufan left, he had defeated every member of the Tian Group in under ten moves. That man was truly extraordinary.
“This is going to hit Xiao Dao pretty hard.”
Wang Wei was momentarily speechless. If that was the case, then Xiao Yufan’s strength was terrifyingly overwhelming. But with such a powerful leader, he felt even more confident that their wildest dreams would become reality.
“It’s good for everyone to witness the young master’s strength. That way, no one will dare betray him again.”
After Wang Wei’s words, Tian Yi continued, half-talking to himself, yet clearly carrying a subtle warning. Wang Wei understood this was meant for him, but he felt no displeasure—because he would never betray that man…
