Chapter 549 - 513: Just Like That?
If it had been someone with a lesser reputation, like Li San, a Double Flower Red Stick, who had stood up and said the same thing Wu Li did, they would definitely have been accused of causing trouble, even if Li San could also offer 40% of Hua Jian Security’s shares.
But the person who had spoken was Wu Li, and given Wu Li’s fame and standing in the Martial Arts World today, he truly had the right to be arrogant.
In the hall, everyone fell silent, watching Wu Li and Bai Tao in the center with either nervousness or anticipation.
Bai Tao had become famous early on, over twenty years ago, he was a Double Flower Red Stick of Hongmen, with a formidable reputation; later he became the Hall Master of Zhigong Hall and seldom personally took action, but the few times he did, each was more impressive than the last.
It could be said that among the older generation of Hongmen experts, Bai Tao firmly held the top spot!
Over the years, there had been an awkward gap in the succession of power in the Martial Arts aspect of Hongmen. Among the younger generation of Boxers, no one had yet surpassed the achievements of their predecessors, which is why some said Bai Tao was actually the number one expert of Hongmen, a claim that became more credible when Bai Tao broke through to the Grandmaster Realm.
Now, Bai Tao, the number one expert of Hongmen, was about to openly face Wu Li, the most prominent figure in today’s Martial Arts World. This scene excited many of the Hongmen experts present.
Today’s duel, regardless of the outcome, would likely have a significant impact on Hongmen!
In the center, Bai Tao collected his thoughts, with eyes fixed solely on Wu Li.
He bowed slightly, and his aura transformed completely, like a tortoise and snake entwining, as all the blood and Qi in his body surged toward his Dantian.
Then, he pushed out with a single palm. As he did so, blood and Qi circulated around the Dantian, rising toward the north as if he were the True Martial God!
