"It's amazing how a lady can deliver such strong punches!"
After more than ten minutes, Yun Bilu and Bo Guangjian were still fighting. All of the audience were in shock.
After all, she was fighting against Bo Guangjian! During the compet.i.tion last year, his opponent didn't even last ten minutes fighting against him.
Even Bo Guangjian himself was surprised. He had underestimated this young lady.
Seeing that Bo Guangjian was still standing strong, Yun Bilu felt a surge of energy rus.h.i.+ng through her. She tried to kick but fell to the ground. Using her momentum, she spun around and twisted her legs, kicking hard towards Bo Guangjian.
Bo Guangjian's face turned solemn instantly, and he flipped backwards. Standing on his hands, he kicked, aiming at Yun Bilu's legs.
"Ahh!"
"Wow…"
At that moment, many of the audience stood up. Once Yun Bilu fell to the ground, she definitely will be kicked out of the arena by Bo Guangjian. That would be inevitable. All of them could tell that Bo Guangjian wasn't letting his opponent have an easy time.
Huang Yize's brows were tightly knitted. Although he trusted Yun Bilu's skills, he was also concerned about her, making him fl.u.s.tered.
But everyone was surprised by what Yun Bilu did next. She used her leg to block Bo Guangjian's attack. When their limbs clashed, she used this momentum and kicked her other leg at Bo Guangjian's head.
That way, no one took advantage of each other's down time.
Huang Yize realized that Yun Bilu wasn't hurt and heaved a sigh of relief.
At that moment, Gu Zhengxun sat down on Yun Bilu's seat and smiled elegantly. "Are you worried about her?"
"Yes!" Huang Yize still treated Yun Bilu's master respectfully and didn't want to deny how he truly felt.
"You do trust her. You're just fl.u.s.tered because you're concerned about her."
"Master, did you arrange this on purpose?"
Gu Zhengxun knew that Huang Yize was asking about how the matches had been arranged.
"The matches had been fairly arranged, but there are exceptions too. This is the only way she can show her true capabilities."
Huang Yize's lips twitched as he answered calmly, "Master, you want her to ride on Bo Guangjian's fame and become well-known herself."
"That's right. She has the charisma. Moreover, she wants to become the winner just to win your approval, right?"
Huang Yize's lips twitched again. "Master, you sure know a lot."
"Since I've accepted her as my disciple, I have to know her inside out."
"Master, you've come from a secret household that practises martial arts. Why did you accept her as your disciple?"
Gu Zhengxun smiled gracefully and replied, "Don't worry. I treat her just like my daughter. I won't hurt her."
As the two of them chatted, the fighting styles in the arena had changed. Yun Bilu switched to another method and threw softer Taichi-like moves that incorporated a myriad of other martial arts strategies. She began to battle Bo Guangjian.
Bo Guangjian also moved on to another fighting style. The two of them exchanged a few moves, and they looked very stern. None of them dared to let their guards down.
After half an hour, there were still no signs of victory. Finally, the host declared, "It's a draw!"
The match finally ended.
Each match typically lasted only ten minutes, and hence, the rule was set that if a match exceeded half an hour, it'll be a tie. However, no one dared to prolong a match for so long. If it were a draw, they had to fight other opponents who had made it through their respective rounds.
Hence, most people didn't want their matches to drag beyond half an hour. They prefer to swiftly defeat their opponents. That way, they wouldn't need to fight anyone else.
