Chapter 1 A Stirring

As the first match list was announced on the sports arena's big screen, a small commotion arose in the VIP seats.

"A current White Tiger student versus a former White Tiger student. This match is truly interesting!"

Those present were all industry insiders who had already checked the detailed information of all the qualified players, and they knew very well about You Ziping's situation.

Originally, You Ziping was a promising student of the White Tiger Martial Arts Center. He was already an intermediate student at a young age, only one step away from becoming an advanced student. Becoming an advanced student was only a matter of one or two years.

The advanced students of the White Tiger Martial Arts Center could not be compared to other martial arts centers and training halls. Those who reached the level of advanced students could basically pass the preliminary rounds of the National Competition, which could be said to be extremely promising.

However, You Ziping inexplicably became a representative player of the Big Dipper Training Hall, which was simply unbelievable.

Just as the senior executives of the major martial arts centers and training halls in the VIP seats were whispering, Jiang Tianyuan's face was also very unsightly. You Ziping's actions were simply a slap in the face to the White Tiger Martial Arts Center.

"Master, don't worry, Liao Huajie will soon let those people know how foolish You Ziping's choice was," Xie Qiwen said with a smile.

He had been looking forward to this scene for a long time.

Although You Ziping's basic data was a little higher than Liao Huajie's, with Liao Huajie's experienced fighting experience, it was not a problem to defeat You Ziping.

At that time, not only would everyone present know the power of the White Tiger Martial Arts Center, but it would also directly slap the Big Dipper Training Hall in the face, and even cripple You Ziping, which was completely a win-win-win situation.

As for failure, that was simply impossible, because he knew You Ziping's strength too well. If he wanted to reach the national level, he would need at least one or two years of hard training. However, Liao Huajie's strength was not as simple as outsiders saw it.

Under the main arena, the players were also staring at Liao Huajie and You Ziping on the stage, very interested in what kind of result the two could achieve.

At this time, Yi Yuqing under the arena looked at You Ziping, who was eager to fight, with a hint of worry in her eyes. Then, she quietly walked towards Jian Ying and Ban鸠 (Zebra Dove), who were watching the match, and whispered, "If you are You Ziping's friends, quickly stop his match. Liao Huajie is not as simple as you think. He is the gatekeeper of the White Tiger Martial Arts Center. If you don't stop him before the match, You Ziping will be in danger."

"Gatekeeper?" Jian Ying and Ban鸠 couldn't help but turn their heads to look at Yi Yuqing in surprise, their expressions suddenly becoming serious. "Are you serious?"

Yi Yuqing was from the White Tiger Martial Arts Center. Although they didn't know what Yi Yuqing meant, the gatekeeper of the martial arts center was no small matter, so they couldn't help but take it seriously.

For those who didn't understand the martial arts centers and training halls, they didn't know what the gatekeeper meant. However, they were determined to enter the professional circle, so they still knew a little about the gatekeeper.

The gatekeeper, to put it bluntly, was a standard used to measure whether the students in the martial arts center or training hall were worth focusing on.

After all, the resources of a martial arts center or training hall were limited and could not be distributed to everyone. Different martial arts centers and training halls had different limited quotas.

Therefore, those who could exceed the strength of the gatekeeper could be given key training, and those who could not exceed it would not be given key training. This was to maintain the strength of the students who were given key training.

The strength of the gatekeeper was not as weak as everyone thought, weaker than all the students who were given key training.

On the contrary.

The strength of the gatekeeper was generally stronger than the students who were given key training. Generally, they were masters who were uniformly selected by the higher-ups. Although the gatekeeper would be hidden during this period, as long as the deadline was reached, they would be vigorously cultivated. Moreover, during the period of being a gatekeeper, the higher-ups would secretly provide generous resources as compensation. For this reason, many people wanted to be a gatekeeper, but unfortunately, they had no chance.

Although not every martial arts center and training hall had a gatekeeper, it was perfectly normal for a top martial arts center like the White Tiger Martial Arts Center to have a gatekeeper.

"Do you think I need to lie to you?" Yi Yuqing rolled her eyes at Jian Ying and Ban鸠. She was also a genius of the White Tiger Martial Arts Center, and she would take over Tang Jingyao in the future. "Although I'm not bragging, Liao Huajie's strength is no less than mine now. You Ziping has no chance at all. Moreover, Liao Huajie is known for his insidious tactics in battle."

"As strong as you?" Ban鸠 sized up Yi Yuqing and couldn't help but ask.

"My win rate against him is about sixty-forty," Yi Yuqing thought for a while and said.

Liao Huajie had been hiding his strength. Only the higher-ups knew the specific level he had reached. However, she was the one who would take over the genius Tang Jingyao in the White Tiger Martial Arts Center, so it was naturally impossible for her to be worse than Liao Huajie. However, in order to attract the attention of the Big Dipper Training Hall, it was better to say that he was more powerful.

"So that's how it is. Then we don't need to inform the president." Ban鸠 couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Jian Ying nodded as well, feeling that it was indeed not necessary to inform Shi Feng about this matter.

"You... guys..." Yi Yuqing was dumbfounded when she saw Ban鸠 and Jian Ying, who were unmoved. Just as she was about to ask Jian Ying and Ban鸠 if they knew the seriousness of the matter, Jian Ying and Ban鸠 directly said a few words of thanks and perfunctorily dismissed her. Yi Yuqing could only leave in anger.

Because Jian Ying and Ban鸠 were just as unreasonable as You Ziping!

Just as Yi Yuqing was thinking about how to get You Ziping to give up this match, the countdown to the match on the arena began.

"You Ziping, I originally thought highly of you, thinking that you would only need one or two years to get the qualification to enter the main hall for training. However, you have gone too far. You actually dared to betray our White Tiger Martial Arts Center. Today, I will let you know the price of betraying the White Tiger Martial Arts Center." Liao Huajie walked to You Ziping and sneered in a low voice when he was still two meters away. "At the same time, Brother Qiwen also asked me to bring you a message: you want to compete with him? You are a hundred years too early!"

As he spoke, Liao Huajie suddenly moved, took a step of Youlong Bu (Swimming Dragon Steps), and instantly swept in front of You Ziping. He jumped up and kicked You Ziping's face with a flying knee. At the same time, his two hands swung out like whips, fiercely sweeping towards You Ziping's carotid artery. His moves were extremely sinister, directly aiming for You Ziping's life.

When people faced attacks from the face, they would instinctively make defensive movements, thus ignoring attacks from other places. Liao Huajie did this not only to make You Ziping make instinctive defenses, because for people who often trained and fought, it was still quite easy to overcome this defensive instinct. More importantly, it was to create a blind spot in You Ziping's vision, so that he could not detect the killing move that stabbed at his neck.

Seeing the flying knee kick towards You Ziping's face, You Ziping did not retreat but advanced, directly meeting it with his whole body.

"This person is crazy!"

The players watching under the arena were shocked by You Ziping's crazy move. This knee kick would break several bones if it was light, and would cost him his life if it was serious, not to mention hitting his face.

"Looking for death?" Liao Huajie was slightly surprised, but the force of his attack did not decrease at all.

He saw You Ziping dodging the flying knee at the critical moment, and also taking a side step to turn around to Liao Huajie's side. At the moment of passing, You Ziping used centrifugal force and suddenly swung a punch, fiercely hammering towards Liao Huajie's back.

You Ziping's speed was as fast as lightning, not giving Liao Huajie any time to counterattack.

Bang!

You Ziping's fist was printed on Liao Huajie's back. Liao Huajie felt as if he had been hit by a hammer. He couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood, and then his whole body flew out more than three meters away and fell to the ground, unconscious.

"What... happened?"

The whole process was completed in an instant, and everyone was stunned at this time.

When they thought Liao Huajie was about to win, it was You Ziping who stood to the end.

"Too fast, what happened? I didn't see what happened? Can anyone tell me?"

Many people in the audience widened their eyes, and everyone was very curious about what happened.
