Chen Feng vs Bao Bao

After succeeding in pairing them up, Vice general Qing Wu climbed up the stage.

The fifth round began immediately the opponents were paired. We have;

"Chen Feng vs Bao Bao" and "Wu Zhu vs Gui Shan".

The crowd cheered as it was announced. Meanwhile, the candidates were warming up. Chen Feng in his heart longed for victory, so he decided to put all his training to use in that singular moment.

The two contestants stepped forward as they climbed up the stage. Meanwhile, Bao Bao gave a mischievous smile.

"I'm sure this Guiyi academy student wouldn't be a challenge. I can't wait to see how this goes," Bao Bao said as he smiled more broadly.

Immediately the both of them climbed up the stage, Chen Feng took a deep breath, as he awaited the call to begin combat.

"The match begins now," Vice general Qing Wu said loudly.

At this point, only the two opponents were left on the stage. Bao Bao gave Chen Feng a stern look. They both took their stances and were some distance apart.

"What are you waiting for? Come at me now or you won't get a chance to ever do it?" Bao Bao said.

"Huhh...since you think I'm so weak, I have no choice but to make my move," Chen Feng as a made his move.

As the battle stage was set, Chen Feng charged towards him with an attack. Thinking it was a direct attack, Bao Bao was ready to counter forcefully.

But before he could realize, Chen Feng immediately teleported and change position. He appeared at Bao Bao's extreme and hit him with Qi he has gathered.

Bao Bao was caught unawares, so he actually felt the impact of the attack.

The crowd cheered Chen Feng. Everyone was impressed by his skill, even Vice general Qing Wu joined in the cheering.

"Go Chen Feng! You can do it," Gui Shan said aloud.

...

"Hmmm... I'm impressed," Bao Bao said as he adjusted himself.

"Not only do you possess strength, but you are also quick witted and smart. I didn't expect you to use the teleportation technique so easily,"

"It must have cost a lot of training. Okay, enough let's end this smart game, remember, a trick won't work twice," Bao Bao said as he took a fighting stance ready to attack.

They both fought for some minutes and it was indeed getting interesting. Both opponents showed different skills.

With the pre-competition training they got, Chen Feng was able to counter most of the techniques Bao Bao used even though they were quite strange.

"Don't get too excited. I was just playing with you all this while. I wanted to see how much you can do before I end this fight. Play time over!," Bao Bao said.

After he said those words, he moved swiftly and hit Chen Feng with one of his technique. This time around, it was more fiercer and stronger than before.

Chen Feng lost balance for a while. But the attacks kept on coming with no end to it. Chen Feng however still did his best to counter some.

With no choice left, he decided to use some of the acupoint technique he was taught.

He sprung forward and aimed for his Ying acupoint. Lucky for him, he made a hit and immobilized in an instant. Just then as he was about to begin punching him, Bao Bao broke free.

Because of the surprise it gave to Chen Feng, he wasn't able to evade the attack that followed.

"Hahaha...I told you that such cheap tricks won't work for Ms any longer. Just accept defeat," Bao Bao said.

"No...I still have a chance," Chen Feng said.

After that he sprung forward again, but this time around, he aimed for his Yang meridian. He wasn't able to hit it, so he went again, and successfully got an hit.

To his surprise, the technique didn't affect Bao Bao just like it happened to Gui Shan at the training.

It didn't take effect because the members of the poison tribe use a different method of cultivation, hence their Yang meridian doesn't affect their cultivation.

Just before Chen Feng could realize what was happening, he landed on the floor with a heavy punch from Bao Bao.

As the battle progressed, Chen Feng was now in the defensive side. The crowd were so amazed by how Bao Bao got so strong intermittently.

"Ahhh... ohhhh... ahhhh...," the crowd exclaimed.

Chen Feng still didn't want to accept defeat, so he continued still. Bao Bao then took the privilege and battered Chen Feng.

He punched and kicked Chen Feng till he started bleeding from his nose.

Just as Bao Bao was about to land the finishing blow, vice general Qing Wu acted quickly and held his hands before he lynches Chen Feng.

"Don't take this too far...you may have killed him," vice general Qing Wu said.

"Hahaha...he was so stubborn but got lucky...," Bao Bao said mischievously.

Vice general Qing Wu then brought Chen Feng down with the help of Gui Shan. Chen Feng was way out of the world, he didn't imagine he would lose so shamefully.

"Chen Feng... don't be sad, I know you did your best.," Gui Shan said.

"But his strength is off the charts, how could he be so strong???" Gui Shan wondered.

"Does he have some special power like I do?" he wondered.

...

Eunuch Wang from where he stood was already ogling Bao Bao from where he stood.

"I just hope such a great student can be one of my underlings," Eunuch Wang said within himself.

"Wang...what do you think?" the emperor asked eunuch Wang who stood close to him.

"It seems the kingdom possesses so many talents. Victory would be ours for sure," eunuch Wang said.

"Yes! Rightly said," the emperor conferred.

Vice general Qing Wu then declared Bao Bao the winner of that round. The crowd then cheered as Bao Bao climbed down the stage.

"Our next contestants should come up the stage and begin their combat," vice general Qing Wu said.

The crowd cheered the two opponents as they climbed up the stage. The cheer kept on going loud, since it was a combat between students of the two renowned academy in Wushu kingdom.

While some shouted the name of Nainji academy, others shouted Guiyi academy.

The combat indeed is a promising one.

The two contestants stood for a while as they stared at each other. Gui Shan was confident that he would win definitely, so he had his hopes high.

But before the match started, Wu Zhu, who was Gui Shan's opponent and a student of Nainji academy called the attention of everyone.

"Before the match begins, I want to announce to everyone that the outcome of this match would determine which academy is stronger and should be respected," Wu Zhu said.

This statement made the crowd cheer even the more.

"Hehehe...I can't wait to defeat you, seems the other candidates were too weak for you. Not to worry, this is where it ends," Wu Zhu said.

Wu Zhu's word didn't move Gui Shan. Gui Shan maintained a calm countenance still. Since the competition started, Gui Shan had been fighting in his normal mode.

But deep down,he was contemplating whether to make use of the wolf mode. The match the began at the call of Qing Wu.

Wu Zhu not wanting to take any chances was the first to attack. He sprung forward and attacked Gui Shan.

Gui Shan was able to avoid his attack quickly. The battle continued for a while as they exchanged punches. Just then Wu Zhu decided to use a technique on Gui Shan.

Gui Shan watched him as he weaved his hands, but before Gui Shan could realize that was the technique he used for Hu Mei the previous day, Wu Zhu was already on him with the attack.

Gui Shan felt the impact of the attack which made him spit blood, but it wasn't as severe as that of Hu Mei. Even the crowd felt the air pressure the technique caused.

The crowd were wowed at the technique Wu Zhu used and they cheered as they shouted Wu Zhu intermittently.

"Hahaha...I can't believe you survived my attack and you're still standing, anyways, let me see how long you can last.

Gui Shan cleaned him mouth. He gave Wu Zhu a look as though nothing happened.

"Hahaha... your look wouldn't scare me, putting up that look wouldn't help you win besides... hahaha... hahaha...," Wu Zhu laughed harder.

Just then, Gui Shan opened all his Qi channels and leveled up to 'wolf mode'.

The atmosphere changed in an instant, Wu Zhu and everyone at a distance felt that something occured.

"Uuhhh...I don't care whatever happened to you just now, but I won't lose to you," Wu Zhu said as he sprung forward to attack.

He attacked but he was surprised by how fast Gui Shan evaded his attack and countered back.
