Although Jiang Wuming had created one legend after another in the global martial arts world, hailed as an unprecedented martial arts genius, he had not yet fully grown. Let alone facing Silun@Roman, who had taken that step, he would have been utterly powerless even against a Five-star War God.
At this moment, he was gripped by a Zhenqi palm, pinned in mid-air, almost unable to move.
Seeing this scene, the God Network live broadcast room exploded!
"Hall Master Silun is mighty!"
"Heh… In front of Hall Master Silun, Jiang Wuming is like an insect facing a dragon, unable to even struggle."
"Crush Jiang Wuming and make the Dragon Country martial arts world submit!"
The God Network live broadcast room was flooded with messages again, and martial artists from abroad were ecstatic, wishing they could immediately witness the scene of Jiang Wuming's tragic death.
"How dare the dignified Hall Master of the War God Hall attack Jiang Wuming? This is too much!"
"Bullying the weak, do they really want to start a war with our Dragon Country martial arts world?!"
At the same time, martial artists from the Dragon Country were filled with rage, clearly seeing that even with his life hanging by a thread, there was no trace of fear on Jiang Wuming's face in the picture.
Yes.
At this moment, Jiang Wuming was not fearful, nor angry, but surprisingly calm.
He looked at Silun@Roman with a calm expression and suddenly said:
"As the Hall Master of the War God Hall, you want to use my life and death to force the Dragon Country martial arts world to bow down and submit to the War God Hall, which is centered around the Roman family. Don't you find it shameful?"
Huh?
As Jiang Wuming's voice fell, the silence in the martial arts arena was broken, and most of the people present wore confused expressions.
Just moments ago, they all thought Silun@Roman was going to publicly punish Jiang Wuming to establish his authority, and they had never considered the possibility Jiang Wuming mentioned.
And Tian Gong Wu Hong and the leaders of various delegations such as the North American Alliance had their expressions change slightly!
They hadn't expected Jiang Wuming to be able to see through Silun@Roman's true intentions.
"Young man, you are overthinking. I just want to tell Mr. Qi Wufu and every martial artist globally that violating the regulations of the War God Hall must be punished.
Of course, I won't do anything to you, but will hand you over to the War God Hall's court of justice for a ruling!"
Silun@Roman's expression became a little more serious, but he was also somewhat surprised.
To him and the War God Hall, Jiang Wuming was not that important.
Or rather, Silun@Roman didn't care about Jiang Wuming's life or death at the moment.
With his strength, killing Jiang Wuming was as easy as crushing an ant anytime.
What he truly cared about was Qi Wufu's attitude, or rather, the choice of the Dragon Country martial arts world.
Just now, Qi Wufu had made his choice – the Dragon Country martial arts world would never bow or submit!
For this reason, Silun@Roman resorted to this tactic, capturing Jiang Wuming.
Next, as he said, he would hand Jiang Wuming over to the War God Hall's court of justice, using him as a bargaining chip to force the Dragon Country martial arts world to make a choice later!
This was both a conspiracy and a straightforward stratagem.
"Release Wuming!"
Qi Wufu glared at Silun@Roman furiously. He naturally understood Silun@Roman's objective but still did not compromise. He said in a deep voice:
"Silun@Roman, whether the Dragon Country martial arts world withdraws from the War God Hall, or you unite with other forces to wage war against the Dragon Country martial arts world, you, the Roman family, and even the entire War God Hall, cannot bear the consequences!"
"Mr. Qi Wufu, there's no need to try and threaten me. I said that everything I do is for the future of humanity."
Silun@Roman remained unmoved, still pinning Jiang Wuming in the air, continuing to use justice to cover his wicked intentions.
"Too overbearing!"
This time, before Qi Wufu could speak, Yun Tianjian let out an angry roar, sprang up from the ground, and shot towards Jiang Wuming in mid-air, as fast as lightning.
Previously, for the sake of the bigger picture, he had chosen to be a coward, becoming a disgrace to the Dragon Country martial arts world and a joke in the global martial arts community, feeling extremely stifled.
At this moment, seeing Silun@Roman repeatedly pressuring the Dragon Country martial arts world by relying on his advanced cultivation, and even using Jiang Wuming's life to threaten Qi Wufu, Yun Tianjian's humiliation instantly turned into rage!
That rage consumed Yun Tianjian's rationality and ignited his fighting spirit. Without waiting for Qi Wufu's permission, he was about to act to save Jiang Wuming.
"Hmph!"
Silun@Roman snorted coldly, formed a hand seal again, and the Zhenqi palm in the air suddenly changed, transforming into a black cage that trapped Jiang Wuming within.
Then, the black cage slowly landed on the ground, standing in the center of the martial arts arena.
Swish!
At this moment, Yun Tianjian lunged towards Jiang Wuming but did not make a move.
This was because he was not confident in breaking through the black Zhenqi cage.
To put it another way, even if he used a forbidden technique to break the black Zhenqi cage, the resulting energy fluctuations would not be something Jiang Wuming could withstand.
At that time, Jiang Wuming would surely die on the spot!
"Silun@Roman, release Wuming, I challenge you!"
Yun Tianjian's rage was soaring, his fighting spirit was boiling, and he glared at Silun@Roman, gritting his teeth.
In order to save Jiang Wuming, he had changed his mind and was going to fight Silun@Roman.
Even though he knew this battle was destined to be a fight to the death!
"I can accept your challenge, but I will not release this sinner."
Silun@Roman said indifferently.
"Old bastard, release brother Wuming!"
Hearing Silun@Roman's words again, Ye Kunlun's explosive temper could not be contained, and he roared out loud.
Silun@Roman's eyebrows twitched, and his gaze swept towards Ye Kunlun.
Thump!
Ye Kunlun felt as if he were being stared at by a terrifying monster. His heart trembled violently, and his whole body felt weak. If the Great Elder of the Buddhist Sect beside him hadn't placed a hand on his shoulder, he would have collapsed onto the ground.
Seeing this, Qi Wufu said nothing more, but his face darkened as he walked towards the black cage.
"Mr. Qi Wufu, there's no need to struggle. With your strength, you cannot break that Zhenqi cage."
Silun@Roman once again spoke with a smile, as if mocking Yun Tianjian and Qi Wufu's overestimation of their abilities.
"Silun@Roman, you are forcibly detaining a Dragon Country martial artist without any evidence. This is a provocation and humiliation to the Dragon Country martial arts world. I will not agree, nor will the Dragon Country martial arts world!"
Qi Wufu flashed and appeared next to the black Zhenqi cage that imprisoned Jiang Wuming. He spoke again, his voice echoing throughout the martial arts arena, "I must take him away!"
"I have evidence, and you cannot take him away."
Silun@Roman's lips curved, full of disdain.
"Even if I can't take him, I will!"
Qi Wufu's strong statement was equivalent to declaring war.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh…
Hearing Qi Wufu's words, the other members of the Dragon Country delegation swiftly moved towards Qi Wufu, Yun Tianjian, and Jiang Wuming.
"Qi Wufu, do you and the Dragon Country martial arts world have that strength now?"
This time, before Silun@Roman could speak, Tian Gong Wu Hong, the president of the Japanese Martial Arts Association, abruptly stood up and rebuked in a cold voice.
As Tian Gong Wu Hong's words fell, members of delegations from countries and regions such as Europe, North American Alliance, India, Australia, and South Asia almost simultaneously stood up, exerting pressure on the Dragon Country delegation.
Whoosh!
In response to Tian Gong Wu Hong, an ear-piercing whistling sound cut through the air.
A black beam of light suddenly appeared, rushing over.
Clang!
And then…
A crisp sound was heard, and the light disappeared.
A black battle saber was stuck in front of the main stage.
The saber's name was Zhan Shen!
…
