A battle to the death?!
Upon hearing Tiger's words, everyone present was stunned!
Generally, when two opposing underground forces had irreconcilable conflicts and couldn't engage in all-out war, a mediator would step in to coordinate. Then, both sides would agree to send their respective Twin Flower Red Poles to engage in a duel. The victor would achieve their objective.
The losing side would have to honor the bet and fulfill the agreement. Otherwise, they would become the target of everyone's criticism – the underground world bigwigs present as witnesses would isolate or even围剿 the defaulting party!
Under such circumstances, whether it was the underground magnates from various regions or the martial artists from all corners of the country, none of them expected that today's battle would be a fight to the death!
Not only them, but even Lin Xiao, who was specifically there to oversee this match, was somewhat surprised.
However, the members of the Hong faction, led by Huang Xiong, and Tiger's father, Taishan, remained calm.
This had been agreed upon by both sides beforehand.
In this fight, Tiger was not only to help the Hong faction defeat Jiang Wuming but also to kill Jiang Wuming during the match!
And to kill Jiang Wuming without violating the regulations of the Martial Department, it could only be a battle to the death!
Therefore, before the match began, Tiger had proposed a battle to the death!
"When did a battle between the Twin Flower Red Poles of Qing Hong become a battle to the death?"
Chu Wansong was also greatly shocked, but he quickly regained his composure. Before Jiang Wuming could speak, he angrily shouted.
"Wansong, as I said before, both the Qing and Hong factions are one family. Therefore, a battle between Twin Flower Red Poles is naturally not a battle to the death."
Facing the furious Chu Wansong, Huang Xiong smiled faintly and explained to everyone, "This is Tiger's own idea. He wants to have a battle to the death with Jiang Zhan's son!"
"Yes. A battle to the death, this is my personal wish."
Tiger spoke again, echoing Huang Xiong's words. Then, he stared at Jiang Wuming with a cold smile and provocatively said, "Jiang Wuming, your father Jiang Zhan was invincible in his generation, suppressing all his peers and even being hailed as the new invincible of the human world on his deathbed.
As the saying goes, like father, like son. You wouldn't be a coward, would you?!"
"Wuming, don't agree!"
Chu Wansong's voice rang out again, his tone extremely urgent.
With his eyesight and experience, he could naturally see that this was a premeditated plan by Huang Xiong and Tiger to kill Jiang Wuming through this match!
Although Jiang Wuming had repeatedly shown absolute confidence, Chu Wansong still couldn't eliminate his inner worries, fearing that Jiang Wuming would fall into Huang Xiong's scheme – impulsively accepting the challenge and dying in this battle!
If that were to happen, he would regret it for the rest of his life.
In his own words, if one day he went to the underworld, he would have no face to see Jiang Zhan and the elders of the Chu and Jiang families!
"Tiger, the world knows you have a talent for mental power. Moreover, you became a Grandmaster of Martial Arts eight years ago, and you are now hailed as the strongest Grandmaster of Martial Arts in Longguo – do you have the nerve to initiate a death match with an eight-star martial artist?!"
Huangfu Weixia also spoke out in a moment of panic.
Originally, she was very worried that Jiang Wuming would get into trouble during this fight, and she had specifically gone to find Jiang Wuming to ask him to give up this match.
That day, Jiang Wuming told Huangfu Weixia that he could win the match, which temporarily alleviated her inner worries.
However, at this moment, Huangfu Weixia's worries resurfaced, and they were even greater than before!
Because, rationally, she knew that if Tiger had absolute confidence, he would never have initiated a battle to the death with Jiang Wuming.
After all, a battle to the death meant an irreconcilable fight – defeat meant death!
"What does it have to do with you? Besides, I'm not forcing him to have a battle to the death! If he doesn't dare, he can be a coward and admit defeat in public!" Da Feng Novel Network.
Tiger frowned and glared at Huangfu Weixia.
Before learning that Jiang Wuming was the Twin Flower Red Pole of the Qing faction, Tiger was unwilling to compete as the Twin Flower Red Pole of the Hong faction, mainly because he cared about his reputation.
And at this moment, Huangfu Weixia's words hit Tiger's sore spot, making him very unhappy!
"You want to reincarnate, I'll fulfill your wish!"
This time, as soon as Tiger finished speaking, Jiang Wuming spoke, indirectly responding to Tiger.
He accepted the battle to the death!
"Uh..."
Upon hearing Jiang Wuming's seemingly calm but extremely powerful words, the crowd in the stands was once again stunned into silence!
Although they had all heard that Jiang Wuming acted aggressively, hearing him accept the challenge with such a sentence still shocked them greatly.
Where did Jiang Wuming get his confidence?
Amidst their shock, their hearts were also filled with confusion.
They were very curious, how could Jiang Wuming, an eight-star martial artist, be so confident that he could kill Tiger, who was hailed as the strongest Grandmaster of Martial Arts in Longguo?
"Wuming!"
"Teacher Wuming..."
Their response was two exclamations.
Chu Wansong and Huangfu Weixia also froze upon hearing Jiang Wuming's words, and then they became anxious, trying to speak again to remind and stop Jiang Wuming from engaging in a battle to the death with Tiger.
This time, Jiang Wuming did not say anything further to Chu Wansong and Huangfu Weixia.
"Hehehehe..."
At the same time, Tiger suddenly burst into laughter, as if he saw a sheep challenging wolves, and mockingly said, "Brother Lin Xiao just said that you didn't inherit your father Jiang Zhan's excellent qualities. I think it can be slightly modified.
Well, in terms of courage, you are indeed very much like your father Jiang Zhan. At least you didn't disgrace him."
As soon as he finished speaking, Tiger, without giving Jiang Wuming a chance to speak, directly looked at Lin Xiao and said:
"Brother Lin Xiao, you heard it just now. He accepted the battle to the death I initiated and threatened to send me to reincarnate. Therefore, killing him during the match does not violate the regulations of the Martial Department, right?"
"Yes, this complies with the regulations of the Martial Department. I will be the witness for this battle to the death. In a battle to the death, each party's fate is their own, and no retaliation will be allowed afterward!"
Lin Xiao nodded with a cold smile.
Just now, Jiang Wuming not only arrived late but also ignored Lin Xiao, didn't greet him at all, and even clashed with him in public, which made Lin Xiao extremely dissatisfied with Jiang Wuming. Naturally, he would not stop Jiang Wuming's "suicidal" act!
"Jiang Zhan's son is only an eight-star martial artist, where does he get the confidence to engage in a battle to the death with Tiger?"
"God knows where he got his confidence. I think his brain has been kicked by a donkey!"
"He's not brain-damaged, he's courting death!!"
Seeing Lin Xiao confirm that Jiang Wuming and Tiger were going to fight to the death, the audience members also gradually came to their senses and couldn't help but discuss, all believing that Jiang Wuming was courting death!
Hearing the discussions, Jiang Wuming showed no reaction. Instead, he was the first to flash his figure and move to the center of the martial arts arena.
"Are you in such a hurry to report to the King of Hell?"
Seeing Jiang Wuming's action, Tiger was first stunned, then sneered, "On account of your father being Jiang Zhan, I'll give you the chance to make the first move..."
"Come here, accept your death!"
Jiang Wuming shouted coldly, his voice echoing through the martial arts arena like a thunderclap, completely drowning out Tiger's voice.
