Chapter 205: The Eighth Rank Archon Makes an Entrance!

Chapter 205: The Eighth Rank Archon Makes an Entrance!

"That was absolutely terrifying! The very heavens and earth seemed to have changed color!"

"Yeah! When those two big shots clashed, I felt so insignificant."

"Damn, my legs went soft from the shock, and I almost fell down..."

"What a thrill! Now that's a real battle between powerhouses!"

"And it was a pure display of strength, so exhilarating."

"To witness this battle in person, it was truly worth the trip. I'm glad I came."

"Compared to those two big shots, Liu Maoban is like a dog."

"Don't say that, Liu Maoban still has some redeeming qualities. At least he knows how to have fun..."

"Isn't it strange? How can Chen Ye, a Sixth Rank Standard powerhouse, possess such formidable strength?"

"I was just about to bring that up. When Chen Ye saved Lu'an City last time, his performance was only at the Sixth Rank Standard. It's been half a year since then, and now he's fighting on par with the top Seventh Rank powerhouse?"

"Is it too exaggerated for his strength to increase so much in just half a year? Or did he hold back when he intervened last time?"

"Haven't you noticed? During the clash, Ma Dongwu was completely overwhelmed, and his right arm seemed to be crippled. It's likely that he's lost the use of his arm."

"Ouch! Is Chen Ye even stronger than Ma Dongwu? Is he the true top Seventh Rank powerhouse?"

...

Among the tens of thousands of onlookers, the vast majority were engaged in animated discussions.

Each person's face was filled with expressions of shock and excitement.

"Water friends, did you all see that? It was so thrilling!"

The female influencer, Tangtang, exclaimed with excitement, "The strength of a top Seventh Rank powerhouse is truly formidable! Almost every one of them is a human-shaped nuclear weapon!"

In her live stream, the barrage of comments was like a swarm of locusts, uncountable.

[We saw it, and we were also stunned.]



[It was like watching a sci-fi blockbuster!]



[Stop shouting, I need a smoke break.]



[Who won in that clash?]



[The influencer is too far away, can't really tell...]



On the other side.

At Song Shang's location.

Several investment representatives were also in high spirits.

"President Song, Mr. Chen Ye is indeed very powerful."

"That was Ma Dongwu! How could Chen Ye defeat even Ma Dongwu? Mr. Chen is so young, yet so impressive."

"Good! I bet two million on Mr. Chen, and with a three-fold odds, I can win six million!"

"Haha, I bet one hundred and fifty thousand too..."

Their excitement wasn't just about winning the bet.

Compared to their net worth, this gambling stake was insignificant.

What truly thrilled them was the prospect of having Chen Ye, a powerful ally, by their side. With him, the future of the Zhao Family Corporation would be smooth sailing, perhaps even skyrocketing.

Their decision to back the Zhao Family had paid off! At this moment, one of the investment representatives suddenly noticed that the Zhao Family's grandfather seemed overly excited.

"Hey! Granddad, please calm down. I understand your excitement, but Mr. Chen has already won. You should take care of your health; the Zhao Family still needs your leadership!"

The representative's flattery was a bit excessive...

The grandfather waved his hand and said a meaningful sentence, "No! You wouldn't understand!"

Standing there was his own grandson!

To think that such a powerful figure had emerged from the Zhao Family. With this grandson, the Zhao Family's future was bound to soar.

As for the dying Gu Laotou, he couldn't wait to boast to him every day, having a Seventh Rank daughter had allowed the Gu Family to leap in status.

I hope that Old Gu will live a little longer, so that he can meet his grandson in the future!

When that time comes, Old Gu's expression will surely be a sight to behold.

The thought brought a genuine smile to the old man's face.

"Look over there!" A banker suddenly exclaimed, "Ma Dongwu's arm seems to be useless now."

Indeed.

At this moment, Ma Dongwu's entire right arm hung limply by his side.

It was as if his arm had turned into noodles, lacking any strength.

This situation would, at the very least, result in a dislocated shoulder.

The contest between the two had clearly determined a winner and a loser.

Ma Dongwu's face turned grim, his eyes fixed on Zhao Zheng with an intense stare, his teeth clenched as if he wanted to bite Zhao Zheng to death.

His right arm was indeed useless.

Even if he sought treatment from a capable Extraordinary Being, it would still affect his combat prowess.

For at least three years, his right arm would require careful maintenance and could not be overexerted...

This severely impacted Ma Dongwu's future plans, naturally making him furious.

"What's wrong? Are you not satisfied with the outcome?" Zhao Zheng asked, his expressionless face challenging Ma Dongwu.

"Or do you think I'm afraid to kill you?" Zhao Zheng added, his tone devoid of emotion.

Zhao Zheng then lifted his foot and started walking towards Ma Dongwu.

Seeing Zhao Zheng's murderous intent, Ma Dongwu's face finally changed.

He had become too comfortable, thinking Zhao Zheng wouldn't dare to kill him, forgetting that they were in the Great Wilderness Ridge, not within the borders of South Korea.

"Damn it! You want to kill me? Come on then!" Ma Dongwu roared, clenching his left fist, and his body once again glowed with golden light.

Zhao Zheng remained expressionless.

Just as he was about to make his move—

Suddenly, another voice rang out:

"Stop it!!"

Zhao Zheng: "..."

Are you kidding me? When will this be over?

He didn't want to pay any attention.

However, a massive rock suddenly flew in from a distance, landing precisely between him and Ma Dongwu, blocking his path.

With just this one move, it was evident that the person who threw the rock possessed not only immense strength but also terrifying control over their power.

Zhao Zheng immediately looked in the direction from which the rock had come and saw a tall and sturdy man walking towards them.

This man was around forty years old, his right palm held up in front of his body in the Buddhist single-handed greeting, and his firm and upright appearance indeed carried an air of dignity.

The man's appearance surprised many around him, and they exclaimed in shock.

Ma Dongwu, in particular, became as meek as a mouse seeing a cat.

Zhao Zheng furrowed his brows and asked, "Who are you?"

"I am Pu Zanyu. I ask Mr. Chen to spare Ma Dongwu this time," the man replied.

Zhao Zheng really wanted to ask if he had eaten the 'Face Fruit' to have such a big face.

But...

The name Pu Zanyu seemed somewhat familiar to him.

At that moment, Song Shanghui spoke up, "Chen Ye, he's the top-ranked powerhouse from South Korea, an Archon! His natural ability is the 'Everyone Fruit · Beast Kind · Great Buddha Form'."

Upon hearing Song Shanghui's reminder, Zhao Zheng finally understood.

No wonder he felt the name was familiar.

No wonder his appearance had caused such a stir among the crowd.

No wonder Ma Dongwu had become so docile upon seeing him.

So, he was the renowned eighth-rank powerhouse from South Korea, the 'Pillar of South Korea', Pu Zanyu.

But...

Is an Archon so impressive? Should I just let him go because he asked me to?

I won't!
