Forbidden Zone of the Human Race

Chapter 141: Frenzy



In the face of Xiang Ning’s might, everyone had lost their will to fight. Since he had single-handedly defeated ten students at once, everyone knew that even if twenty or thirty people were to gang up on him, the result would be the same.

When all ten of the students stood against him, they had already lost their dignity. They were further humiliated when all of them were defeated. There was no reason to continue the challenge. But Xiang Ning couldn’t care less. All he had ever cared about was Wu Rui, and that was his only goal. Since he had defeated all ten students, surely Wu Rui would be forced to stand up.

“Wu Rui, I’ve defeated everyone else, you’re the only one left. Stand up.” Xiang Ning decided to just call him out. There was no one else as strong as him left in Hanwu Academy.

The moment he called for Wu Rui, everyone was silent.

What did he mean?

Will Wu Rui challenge him only when he defeats everyone?

Don’t tell me that the only person Xiang Ning wanted to challenge was Wu Rui? But he was already defeated in the wilderness!

Unless… Wu Rui had a breakthrough. If he didn’t, why would Xiang Ning want to challenge him?

As the students thought about it, many started to find Wu Rui.

At the same time, Wu Rui was utterly stunned. Why did he call for me? However, his body responded before he could even think about it and he stood up. Even though he was in the corner, everyone around him was shocked. In the end, everyone in the arena was looking at him.

“It’s Wu Rui!” Suddenly, a sliver of hope was seen in the eyes of the Hanwu Academy students. Wu Rui was the only one capable of fighting against Xiang Ning, and everyone saw him as the final hope. In their eyes, he was a savior.

That’s right, a savior!

“Look at his eyes filled with conviction. He’s already locked eyes with Xiang Ning and his desire to fight against him is at its peak!”

“Xiang Ning finally ignited his fighting spirit! Look at his unwavering gaze! Both of them are the strongest students in Marsh City!”

“Will there be a winner amongst both of them?”

Wu Rui was very nervous, and the students weren’t helping things. But his body reacted on its own and he continued looking at Xiang Ning. Now, both of them were the stars of the arena, and Xiang Ning was his enemy.

He was distraught. When he had watched Xiang Ning defeat Sakar, he already knew that he wouldn’t be able to win against him. But to think that he would become the final fighter... such irony!

Even Zhang Hongyu was surprised. He knew that Wu Rui and Sakar had secretly sparred many times, and he only won a handful of them.

“Don’t tell me he was hiding his strength?” Zhang Hongyu also placed his final hope on Wu Rui.

Zhao Huatai, on the other hand, was strangely excited. He didn’t know about Sakar and Wu Rui sparred during their free time, but he knew that Wu Rui was extremely strong. Looking at the bloodlust emanating from the two, the fight was going to be epic.

Regardless of the academy, every single person watching the live stream could also sense that sparks were flying.

“Wu Rui is provoking Xiang Ning, look at his gaze!”

“Is this the final round between the strongest warriors? I can’t believe I get to watch this!”

“Wu Rui is the final hope for Hanwu Academy, but Xiang Ning is the first genius of Qiling Academy. I wonder who’s stronger!”

Everyone was excited about the match.

Li Zimo, however, felt that something was amiss. “I remember that he was defeated by Xiang Ning in the wilderness, but it seems like he has a new technique!”

Fang Rou nodded. Wu Rui came from a family of martial artists. The only reason the Fang family could establish their name in Marsh City was that the expert of the Wu family, a tier eight martial artist, had been killed in action eight years earlier.

“It seems that Xiang Ning will be in quite a pinch.”

At Hanwu Academy, Xiang Ning’s gaze met Wu Rui’s as he slowly walked toward him. The crowd parted for Wu Rui as they started cheering for him. Wu Rui never broke eye contact with Xiang Ning throughout the entire walk.

“Go Wu Rui! Win!”

Win my ass! What can I do to win him?! He knew that he was walking to his grave, but he couldn’t stop now. He wanted to say he was weak and being forced to fight, so weak that he had lost to Sakar many times. But how could he say that now? If he did, he would lose all the prestige he had in Hanwu Academy. Since it had come to this, he had no choice but to be the hero. Not the kind that wins against the demon lord, but the kind that sacrifices his life to save the human race!

After thinking it through, he didn’t care anymore. So many people had lost before him, so what’s one more? He just needed to go at full strength. As he steeled his resolve, his gaze got even sharper. When the students saw how determined he was, all of them felt their blood boiling in excitement and anticipation.

Even Li Bu was moved by Wu Rui’s determination. “Wu Rui, no matter the outcome today, I’ll take you as my disciple and teach you everything.”

Wu Rui was shocked. While his family was a martial clan, ever since the death of their tier eight elder, his family has been declining. If a tier six martial artist personally taught him, he could finally help his family.

Xiang Ning had also decided that he wouldn’t use any pills to recover from his injuries. He wanted to fight against him without using Keen Observation too.

That was the pride of the strong.

“Wu Rui, you finally stood up!” Xiang Ning was excited.

Looking at his piercing gaze, Wu Rui decided to go all out as well. Since Li Bu had also promised to take him as a disciple, even if he lost, he would lose with dignity.

“Here I come!” Wu Rui replied. He was ready to lay down his life.

The crowd exploded with excitement!

“Oh my god! Wu Rui and Xiang Ning’s match will forever be recorded in history!”

“We are spectating the match of our lives!”

“Wu Rui is so cool!”

Everyone was once again buzzing with life.

“Wu Rui! Wu Rui! Wu Rui!” Everyone was rooting for him. He was their savior!

More and more people joined the live stream. Almost half of Marsh City was spectating the fight.

The comments were split into two factions.

“Xiang Ning!”

“Wu Rui!”

Both of them charged toward each other without a second thought, and everyone held their breath.

Boom!

Shockwaves traveled through the air when Xiang Ning’s sword clashed with Wu Rui’s rod.

“Oh my god! He blocked it! Wu Rui blocked it!”

“He’s our god!”

Everyone was standing on their feet. They were excited because someone could finally stand up to Xiang Ning, who had been dominating them. They all wanted Wu Rui to win!
