Each belt was an electromagnet.

For the sake of safety, Tu Hong wore a hoop made from a strong magnet while Ren Baqian wore two electromagnetic belts.

When energized, one belt would repel the magnetic hoop on Tu Hong because the two magnetic poles on both sides were the same. The other belt, when energized, would attract Tu Hong's magnetic hoop because the two magnetic poles were opposite.

For this match, the most frightening thing was that the difference in height between the two would cause mutual repelling and mutual attractive fields to change. For example, if Tu Hong jumped above Ren Baqian's head, Ren Baqian could adjust his posture and switch the position of the belts.

At the same time, there were two wires connected to two remote controls; one in the left hand and one in the right hand to open and close the circuit.

After completing all these preparations, Ren Baqiain activated the current for the repelling belt and turned to face the empress. He raised the clenched fist of his right hand and gave a thumbs-up sign.

"Begin!" Xin Zhe stepped forward, her cold voice filling the whole venue.

Tu Hong leisurely took three steps forward and on his third step, Ren Baqian felt a force pus.h.i.+ng him backward by one step.

At this time, they were both ten meters apart as this the strongest repulsive force generated with the current at the maximum level.

However, to the audience, it looked like Ren Baqian had felt the oppressive force of Tu Hong and subconsciously took a step back.

Tu Hong stopped moving, gave Ren Baqian a grim smile, and asked, "Are you not retreating to escape? As I mentioned before, I only need a ten count to catch you. If you don't run away, then even a ten count won't be needed. At this distance, I can just stretch out my hand to catch you."

Ren Baqian put one hand behind his back and kept his waist ramrod straight, making an effort to pose like a martial arts master. He used the other hand to beckon Tu Hong with a finger and said, "Come on!"

Tu Hong had some doubts and wondered what kind of trump card the opponent was holding. Standing so close together, wearing only two belts, and making no other preparations, what was he banking on?

Although he had his doubts, they didn't affect his movements. A pit the size of a fist appeared as he took a step, and in a flash, he moved out at high speed. To a person with a low level of martial arts attainment, he seemed to disappear on the spot.

However, he wasn't the only one who disappeared as Ren Baqian also disappeared at the same time.

As Tu Hong rushed forward, Ren Baqian flew straight back like a baseball that had been hit by a bat.

"Oh!"

Tu Hong reappeared at the spot where Ren Baqian had previously been standing while Ren Baqian was thrown more than 30 meters away. He retreated a few more steps before barely stabilizing.

The crowd in the distance exclaimed loudly.

"How is this possible?"

"How can he move at such a high speed?"

"Surprisingly, his speed is almost as fast as Sir Tu!"

Tu Hong looked at the distant figure of Ren Baqian steadying himself and gasped before saying, "I never expected you to be so fast! Still, it will end here because how many times can you move at such a speed?"

As for the repulsive force that he encountered, which sent Ren Baqian flying, he didn't seem to feel it at all.

"That was so risky that I almost fell down. In any case, I'm a Man Wheel expert. To suddenly be sent flying so far, but I still managed to stabilize myself or it would have been disgraceful," Ren Baqian muttered to himself. He stood up straight, put one hand behind his back, posed like a great master, and circled Tu Hong for a few steps before beckoning to him and saying, "Come on!"

"I will see how many times you can escape!" Tu Hong shouted. The mud below his feet exploded again, and in a flash, he traveled more than 30 meters to appear at the spot where Ren Baqian had been standing.

To everyone's eyes, the speed of Ren Baqian didn't decrease. Instead, he seemed to move at the same speed as Tu Hong as he was repelled a few dozen meters. However, it was more embarra.s.sing this time as he almost fell to the ground. He tumbled backward and staggered several times before stabilizing himself.

"Oh, I want to see whether it's you who retreated fast or me who chased you fast!" Tu Hong roared loudly and started chasing him again.

Nevertheless, Ren Baqian again appeared ten meters away from him.

Tu Hong didn't pause and rushed after him again.

Ren Baqian was sent flying backward again.

Of the two people on the stage, one was chasing while one was retreating. Before long they had moved 200 meters away.

Tu Hong stood on the ground with ferocious-looking eyes. The opponent was in such a sorry state that he could hardly stabilize himself, but every time Tu Hong chased Ren Baqian down, Ren Baqian would retreat without seeming to be affected at all.

During the last two attempts, Tu Hong chased him before he landed, but he unexpectedly moved a dozen meters away in midair. How was this possible?

"I'm beginning to look at Yagui in a different light." Tong Lan put a lollipop in her mouth and gasped in admiration. This candy was given to her as a reward by the empress, but she previously couldn't bear to eat it. With so many people around today, it was a good time to eat it.

"He's really formidable, especially as he was able to retreat in midair when he was off balance. It's impossible to see how he did that. Even a Cardinal Heaven expert can't do such a thing." s.h.i.+ Gan also gasped in admiration.

They weren't the only ones, the people around them were also gasping in admiration.

Under such conditions, even the Cardinal Heaven experts who had the same strength couldn't do better than Ren Baqian.

In that type of situation where a person lost their balance in midair, even a Cardinal Heaven expert would find it hard to exert the necessary force to stabilize their body. However, Ren Baqian was tumbling in midair when he suddenly moved back… It was a revelation to them.

Most important of all, from the beginning to the end, Ren Baqian had been retreating backward while facing Tu Hong.

"I don't believe it—I don't believe that I can't catch you!" Tu Hong growled in a low voice.

Ren Baqian felt like he was floating on water when he landed on his b.u.t.t and bounced up again. He could still stand steadily and didn't let others see that he was in bad shape. He had been panicking like crazy when he was flying aloft just now.

After steadying himself, Ren Baqian saw Tu Hong getting ready to charge at him again and proceeded to stop him.

"Wait."

"What's it?" Tu Hong asked coldly.

"From this angle, it's glaring due to the sunlight!" Ren Baqian put a hand to his forehead and looked up at the sky.

Tu Hong's face immediately turned black.

"Let me change my orientation." Ren Baqian circled around Tu Hong to get to the other side and was satisfied that the sun was now s.h.i.+ning behind him.

He was more satisfied with the fact that this change in location meant that he wouldn't be getting thrown against the wall.

In fact, the magnetic field was curved, so as long as you could adjust the angle in time, you could be squeezed like a ball instead of being repelled away.

However, the speed of his opponent was too fast. Ren Baqian only managed to change his direction at the start. He wouldn't have any more chances to change his angle.

"I'm ready! Come on!" Ren Baqian straightened his body and beckoned with his hand.

"d.a.m.n!" Tu Hong didn't talk about the ten count timeframe anymore. Including the time taken by Ren Baqian to move halfway around, more than 90 seconds or about a 90 count had already elapsed. Furthermore, Tu Hong didn't even catch a corner of Ren Baqian's sleeve—even the distance between them didn't shorten. The shortest distance between them was 40 steps, which was the distance between them at the start. This was simply unacceptable to Tu Hong.

The very next moment, he jumped up above the top of Ren Baqian's head.

Ren Baqian felt a repulsive force bending him backward as he almost fell. The repulsive force became an attractive force, causing the airborne Tu Hong above and the grounded Ren Baqian below to get pulled toward each other.

The airborne Tu Hong stretched his palm to grab Ren Baqian, and Ren Baqian was pulled toward Tu Hong by the magnetic force, making him totally unable to react. It seemed as if he was being pulled in by the palm of Tu Hong.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www.webnovel.com for visiting.

"What kind of skill is that?"

The audience in the distance had been looking at Tu Hong as he tried to get closer to Ren Baqian without success. They were startled to see this s.h.i.+ft.

Was there such a skill that used the palm to pull somebody in?

The airborne Tu Hong saw Ren Baqian flying toward him and suddenly had the strange idea that Ren Baqian was being pulled in by him.
