C155 Martial Arts Was a Killing Technique(2)

Woo Zhengyang was known for his bold words, never backing down until he made his point. His challenge to a life-and-death duel had already shocked everyone, but now he was taking it a step further by challenging both Ma Tenglong and Ma Tengyue. It seemed unbelievably audacious.

Ma Tenglong, the top student of the outer division at Heavenly Martial Academy, was on the verge of advancing to the Reality Condensing Stage. His combat prowess was unquestionable. Just facing him alone, no one believed Woo Zhengyang stood a chance. Adding Ma Tengyue, even though he was only an Eight-star Martial Disciple, made Woo Zhengyang's challenge seem utterly reckless.

Yet, Woo Zhengyang had his reasons. He had already offended the Ma family. Killing Ma Tenglong today would only escalate their feud, so he figured he might as well deal with Ma Tengyue too. Leaving him around would eventually become a problem for Liang Ruoxuan and the others.

As for the possibility of his own defeat and death, Woo Zhengyang didn't even consider it. To others, Ma Tenglong was the top of the outer division, but to Woo Zhengyang, he was nothing special. In his mind, Ma Tenglong was not even on par with the mysterious Moh Lunhui from Dongjue Country. If he, with his Ice Crystal Fire Body, couldn't defeat Ma Tenglong, he would be wasting Nalan Yan'er's goodwill.

"Haha... such arrogance, challenging both of us! Brother, let's accept his challenge!" Ma Tengyue's voice, full of mockery, rang out again.

Ma Tenglong and Ma Feiyi both looked like they wanted to swat him away, but the next words out of the kid's mouth made them pause. Despite his usual cluelessness, sometimes he could really hit the nail on the head.

Ma Tengyue said, "This kid is definitely bluffing, trying to make us second-guess ourselves so he can avoid this fight and save face. With my brother's skills, what's there to be afraid of? Even if I'm just cheering from the sidelines, my brother could take him down as easily as swatting a fly!"

Ma Tengyue's words made Ma Feiyi and Ma Tenglong question their own judgment. On second thought, what Ma Tengyue said seemed quite plausible. The two exchanged glances, and the confusion in Ma Tenglong's eyes turned to confidence. He chuckled lightly, "I can handle you on my own; I don't need his help!"

"I said I want a fight to the death, and it has to be against both of you brothers, or I'm not interested!" Woo Zhengyang's words only reinforced Ma Tenglong's belief that the guy was just putting on a brave front.

"Well, in that case, don't blame us for ganging up on you. I accept this challenge and hope the headmaster will bear witness!" Ma Tenglong said to Loong Zhiwu.

Loong Zhiwu had been watching the whole scene with a puzzled expression from the start. Even now, he couldn't figure out why Woo Zhengyang, who initially seemed reluctant to fight, was now challenging both Ma Tenglong brothers. Was he really just bluffing?

Loong Zhiwu studied Woo Zhengyang for a while but couldn't figure him out, so he finally said, "Since both sides agree, let's get started!"

Ma Tenglong and Ma Tengyue leaped onto the stage, while Woo Zhengyang strolled over leisurely. This only boosted the brothers' confidence, thinking the kid might back out before the match even started. If that happened, they planned to humiliate him even more.

However, their prepared insults were unnecessary. Woo Zhengyang eventually stepped onto the stage and even initiated, "Let's begin!"

Woo Zhengyang's nonchalance made Ma Tenglong's confidence waver again, causing him to doubt himself. For the first time, he realized he could feel so unsure, especially when the threat came from a Body Tempering cultivator.

To be safe, Ma Tenglong instructed Ma Tengyue, "Stay in the corner and don't move. This kid might have some tricks up his sleeve, and I might not be able to cover you!"

"You're too tense, brother. He's just bluffing..."

"Shut up!" Ma Tenglong snapped. He hadn't thought Ma Tengyue was this unreliable before. Maybe Woo Zhengyang's slap had rattled him.

Silenced by Ma Tenglong, Ma Tengyue didn't dare to speak again. He moved to the corner, standing there without even drawing his weapon, looking like he was just there to watch the show.

Ma Tenglong couldn't be bothered with him anymore. He pulled out a sleek, black spear from his Hidden Heaven Bag, sweeping it through the air, its tip now aimed directly at Woo Zhengyang.

"Black Dragon Spear, a top-tier treasure!" someone remarked.

Woo Zhengyang seemed unfazed, continuing to walk forward, step by step, without any intention of stopping. When Ma Tenglong's spear was less than three feet away from Woo Zhengyang, Ma Tenglong began to feel a bit uneasy.

For the first time, he faced someone who made him feel unsure, despite never having been defeated below the Martial Disciple level. With this thought, Ma Tenglong struck first!

The spear thrust forward, transforming into a black dragon, its jaws wide open, lunging for Woo Zhengyang's neck. It was the Ma family's secret technique, the Yellow Rank top-tier martial skill, "Soaring Dragon Spear Technique"!

Everyone recognized Ma Tenglong's martial skill, and some even gasped in surprise. After all, a Yellow Rank top-tier martial skill was a rare sight for ordinary cultivators.

The crowd waited to see how Woo Zhengyang would respond. Yet, Woo Zhengyang simply raised his hand and calmly delivered a palm strike...
