Chapter 403 - 242 Material Bureau_2
Compared to these, the event in the village this time is no different from child’s play.
Thinking of this, he felt even more grateful to Li Ang for helping him with this favor. Because of Li Ang, his status in the village had shot up considerably.
During the wait to go on stage, Li Ang didn’t pay any attention to the outcomes of the other competitors but focused all his energy on cultivating "Xi Sui Jing." He was now able to enter a deep state of cultivating Inner Strength at any time and place, casting aside all distractions.
It was not until it was their team’s turn that Li Ang finally opened his eyes.
Ling Zhenyu, who was tall and burly, also brought them a lot of surprises. Although he had never learned martial arts or combat sports, his physical fitness stood out. Because of his basketball background, his Response and movements were exceptionally agile, and he was every bit the match for the locals who had been practicing Boxing for years in the ring.
That is until he faced off against a sanda coach who was less than 1.7 meters tall.
The rules of the competition were quite simple. In short, it was about two teams competing, with five members from each team taking turns to fight. The team whose member lasted to the end would be the victorious one.
The opposing sanda coach, just like Ling Zhenyu, was the fourth contestant in his team.
Ling Zhenyu, facing an opponent who was significantly shorter than himself, couldn’t think of a way he might lose. However, he had been briefed before going on stage that this guy was the strongest in the opposing team, a professional in combat sports.
As a professional coach himself, he certainly understood to never challenge someone at what they do for a living with a mere hobby. Besides, fighting wasn’t even his hobby, so now he found himself caught in a dilemma.
Psychologically, he took his opponent very seriously, even felt fear, but his physical instinct kept telling him there was nothing to be afraid of.
The consequence of this conflict was that his Response to the opponent’s attack was a beat too slow. He didn’t even see how the other man threw the punch before he was hit directly in the chin by an uppercut.
