Sneak Attack

Zhang Yuntang didn't know what Zhang Yunhao was thinking. He said with disdain, "Zhang Yunhao, do you recognize the gap between us? How can your basic Five Forms Fist compare to my Surging Waves Fist?"

"I'm practicing immortal martial arts, do I need to tell you?"

Zhang Yunhao sneered inwardly. He said, "The Surging Waves Fist is several times stronger than the Five Forms Fist, but unfortunately, the user is too weak!"

Hearing Zhang Yunhao call him weak, Zhang Yuntang was instantly enraged, "Weak? You actually call me weak?"

"Of course you're weak. You haven't mastered the Surging Waves Fist at all, but I have completely mastered the Five Forms Fist!"

Zhang Yunhao laughed heartily. Without further ado, he leaned forward, his spine like a dragon, his claws extended, like a tiger whose muscles are tensed and ready to pounce.

The younger disciples around subconsciously held their breath, not daring to make a sound, shocked in their hearts. Had Zhang Yunhao practiced the Tiger Form Fist to such a degree?

Zhang Yuntang, as the person involved, felt like he was about to become food for a fierce tiger, his courage chilled. He didn't make a move in time. Just as his momentum was at its weakest, Zhang Yunhao lunged at him with a fierce wind.

From the very first move, Zhang Yunhao's attack was extremely fierce. His two sharp claws struck like lightning, accompanied by explosive sounds, filling the air with claw shadows.

Zhang Yuntang was greatly alarmed and hurriedly used his fists to block Zhang Yunhao's sharp claws. With this block, he was completely put on the defensive.

He had been like a fierce tiger before, but now he had completely turned into a mad tiger. Amidst sounds like a tiger's roar, Zhang Yunhao launched a continuous barrage of attacks. Zhang Yuntang didn't even have time to think and could only desperately defend against Zhang Yunhao's increasingly fierce claws.

Although Zhang Yuntang's martial arts were not bad, under Zhang Yunhao's frenzied assault, he had no chance to use the Surging Waves Fist. He was also battered, his blood and qi churning, his defense becoming increasingly difficult, as if he were on the edge of a ten-thousand-foot cliff, where one wrong step would lead to utter destruction.

At the same time, under the shroud of Zhang Yunhao's tiger-like aura, Zhang Yuntang's mind wavered, and he increasingly felt that he could not win.

The path of a martial artist values courage above all else. Once courage is lost, defeat is certain.

"It seems Zhang Yuntang is going to lose!"

Everyone with discerning eyes present could see it. Many looked at the Great Elder with mocking eyes. No matter how many schemes you had, your son still couldn't get into the Heavenly Fist Sect, could he?

Lei Nu became more and more satisfied with Zhang Yunhao. He said softly to Nangong Ru, "This kid is indeed talented. At such a young age, he has already grasped the essence of a martial art. With a little refinement, his future is boundless."

Nangong Ru also nodded and said, "If he didn't have some skill, how could he have killed the Poisonous Snake Young Master? As for Zhang Yuntang, his martial arts are decent, but he ultimately lacks a bit of ferocity. He's just a flower raised in the family. Otherwise, this fight wouldn't have been so simple."

Just as most people thought Zhang Yunhao would win, the Great Elder on the stage suddenly let out a cold snort.

This cold snort didn't affect others, but Zhang Yunhao on the stage felt like thunder exploded in his ears. His head spun, and his attack suddenly stopped.

"Huh?"

Although Zhang Yuntang didn't understand why Zhang Yunhao stopped, he didn't waste the opportunity and punched Zhang Yunhao in the chest.

Zhang Yunhao cried out in pain and retreated repeatedly. If he hadn't reacted quickly, he would have almost fallen off the stage. As soon as he stopped, he spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Is that the Great Elder's Ghost Thunder Sound?"

The spitting of blood also made Zhang Yunhao sober up. He didn't even wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth. He suddenly turned his head, his eyes wide open, glaring furiously at the Great Elder over there. How could a person be so despicable?

A portion of the crowd was confused, but some saw the clues and were greatly astonished. Wasn't the Great Elder breaking the rules? He was openly sabotaging the match in front of the Heavenly Fist Sect's representative. Many young people felt the same indignation, their hearts burning with anger!

At the same time, everyone was looking at the Clan Leader and the representative Liang Dong, waiting to see what they would say. Was it really okay to sabotage the match like this?

"The Great Elder really is..."

The Clan Leader could naturally see that the Great Elder had used his Ghost Thunder Sound to sneak attack Zhang Yunhao. He frowned inwardly, but not because he felt it was unfair. Rather, he felt the Great Elder had made too much of a scene. After all, people from the Demon Extermination Alliance were present, and it would be embarrassing if word got out.

However, the Clan Leader said nothing. This was because the Great Elder had already reached an agreement with him. Not only would he fully support him from now on, but he would also do his best to help his daughter once Zhang Yuntang entered the Heavenly Fist Sect. That was why he allowed the Great Elder to act so domineeringly.

At this point, the Clan Leader could not possibly fall out with the Great Elder over a mere Zhang Yunhao. So, he pretended not to see it. In any case, no one would stand up for Zhang Yunhao!

As for Liang Dong, while he disdained the Great Elder's actions, he remained silent.

"The Great Elder gave me many good things, and that's fine. But he didn't expect him to be related to that person. An order came from above: only Zhang Yuntang can enter the Heavenly Fist Sect. It's a shame about the other kid; his aptitude should be much better than Zhang Yuntang's."

Liang Dong shook his head inwardly. "It's a pity. In this world, besides aptitude, background and status also matter."

The surrounding people were very disappointed upon seeing this. Nangong Ru's eyes flashed with a sharp light, wanting to stand up for Zhang Yunhao, but Lei Nu stopped her.

"The sooner he understands how cruel reality is, the better it will be for him. Moreover, this can make him completely detach from the Zhang family and join our ranks."

Lei Nu explained. Nangong Ru nodded upon hearing this and stopped making a move. However, she reminded him, "Uncle Lei, I owe him a life. He can't die here."

Lei Nu said confidently, "Don't worry, he won't die. I will save him after he loses."

In Lei Nu's view, Zhang Yunhao was doomed to lose. After all, he was already seriously injured. Moreover, the Great Elder could make another move. Zhang Yunhao couldn't possibly win again!

"How could this be?"

Zhang Yunhao was shocked. It was normal for the Clan Leader to remain silent; he was in cahoots with the Great Elder. But why was Liang Dong from the Heavenly Fist Sect also turning a blind eye? Had the Great Elder even bribed him?

Amidst his shock, Zhang Yunhao felt as if his entire body was burning. It was the fire of rage, furious at the Great Elder's sneak attack, and even more furious at the Clan Leader and the representative's indifference!

"It seems I was too naive. But do you think you can defeat me just like this? I'd like to see how far you can go with your unfair tactics!"

Zhang Yunhao's eyes gradually turned red. He was so angry he almost lost his mind, but fortunately, his temperament was good, and he didn't lose his reason. Instead, a stronger fighting spirit ignited within him. He was a person who never admitted defeat. So what if it was unfair? He was determined to win this match.

"Hahaha, Zhang Yunhao, you're nothing special."

Although Zhang Yuntang guessed that his father had helped him earlier, he was still extremely smug. Now that Zhang Yunhao was severely injured by him, could he still make a comeback?

Besides, if his father could make a move once, he could make a second. Zhang Yunhao was destined to lose!
