When you do everything to the extreme

Chapter 119, Section 118: Crisis Sensation, Dodging Sniper Fire! The Final Sprint!
woohoo hoo...

While maintaining his speed to keep up with Zhang Rui and Zhao Xing ahead, Wang Xiao circulated his Tiger Breath to recover from his internal injuries. He had already pushed his Springing Leg technique to its limit, and every step he took utilized his strength to the extreme.

but!

Sudden.

A sudden surge of restlessness rose within him, and he looked up at the sky.

Wang Xiao also instantly became alert. Following the sensation of the White Tiger True Meaning in his heart, he turned to look at a tall building in the distance, where a flash of light appeared.

Wang Xiao immediately understood.

There are snipers there!

Immediately.

Instead of maintaining a constant speed, Wang Xiao used a spring kick technique to suddenly slow down and then suddenly accelerate, keeping his body speed constantly changing.

This way, it will be harder for the other party to target you.

Zhang Rui and Zhao Xing, who were in front, had their attention mostly focused on Wang Xiao behind them, so they immediately noticed the change in Wang Xiao and were filled with doubt.

But then, Zhang Rui and Zhao Xing immediately understood what Wang Xiao was doing.

After all, Zhang Rui grew up in Taiwan, and Zhao Xing grew up in the chaotic Southeast Asia, having seen more and more complex things. They immediately knew that Wang Xiao might have sensed danger, which was why he changed speed so quickly to avoid a possible sniper.

Zhang Rui and Zhao Xing both looked at the tall building in the distance at the same time.

The venue for this competition is in the suburbs of Yingdu, where there are very few buildings, and there is only one high-rise building suitable for sniping.

Zhang Rui and Zhao Xing also became wary, and were shocked by Wang Xiao's internal martial arts cultivation and spiritual cultivation.

Neither of them sensed danger, but Wang Xiao was able to sense it immediately.

Of course, they knew that this was probably because the other party was targeting Wang Xiao, so Wang Xiao himself could sense it, but they couldn't.

but……

Even so, it proves that Wang Xiao possesses astonishing mental strength.

After all, historically, there are only a handful of experts who can sense danger.

All of them were top-level masters, such as Li Luoneng, Yang Luchan, Dong Haichuan, and Sun Lutang, who are famous in history and founded their own schools. They all cultivated their boxing skills to perfection and then spent many years in seclusion to achieve the ability to sense danger in advance.

The three major internal martial arts classics record what is called the Way of Sincerity, which allows one to know the future!

However, Zhang Rui came from the Longhu Mountain lineage of Taoism, while Zhao Xing came from the Song Dynasty royal family, so they were not from the same lineage as the three major internal martial arts styles.

Therefore, what they record in their classic texts is not the so-called Way of Sincerity, but the cultivation of the mind and spirit. It is the process of constantly refining and improving one's spirit after perfecting the internal secret techniques, which gradually enables one to sense danger.

Throughout the history of the Zhao family in Longhu Mountain, many such masters have emerged.

However, they had generally kept a low profile and had not ventured out to compete with the many martial arts masters outside, so there are very few records about them.

They previously thought that Wang Xiao had perfected both the Tiger Form Fist and the Six Harmonies Fist internal martial arts secrets, and his internal energy and blood were powerful, but to improve his overall spirit and energy, he still needed a long period of secluded practice to reach a certain level.

In Taoist cultivation, the process of refining one's Qi and blood through internal martial arts is called "refining essence into Qi," which means refining the body's essence and Qi. Only when the Qi and blood are cultivated to an extremely strong level will one begin to refine Qi into spirit, using essence and Qi to nourish the spirit and continuously condense the spirit. After the essence, Qi, and spirit are strong as a whole, some special effects will occur, such as the ability to sense danger.

However, even for the most talented and skilled Taoist masters, achieving mastery of Qi Refining and Spirit Transformation requires a long process.

As for the later stages of Taoism, such as refining the spirit and returning to the void, and refining the void and uniting with the Tao, these are the processes after cultivating one's own essence, energy, and spirit to an extremely powerful level, which leads to an understanding of the natural world. This represents the pursuit of the natural world by generations of Taoist masters.

Now they both know...

They underestimated Wang Xiao.

Given Wang Xiao's current keen sense of danger, one can imagine that his mental state is extremely refined!
Wang Xiao's speed of progress has once again refreshed their understanding.

Not only was his internal cultivation incredibly powerful, but his spirit was also exceptionally strong and refined.

Zhang Rui and Zhao Xing accelerated together in perfect unison, hoping to take advantage of Wang Xiao's injury and the threat of the sniper to completely shake him off and prevent him from winning the championship!
otherwise……

If Wang Xiao makes further progress and breakthroughs after winning the championship, they can't even imagine how strong he will be.

At the same time, the two remained highly vigilant, ready to dodge any danger that might arise.

What if those people also start shooting at them?
All three remained on high alert for a moment.

On the rooftop not far away.

Seeing Wang Xiao glance at them and then change speed, the team member immediately said, "Boss, he's spotted us and is starting to be wary of us."

Everyone quickly looked at Wang Xiao and found that he had indeed started to change his speed continuously, but his overall speed was still extremely fast, which greatly increased the difficulty of their sniping.

This was clearly a deliberate precaution against their attack, indicating that Wang Xiao had already discovered them, but the group wasn't too surprised.

Some people are gifted with a special sense of danger, and they have encountered it.

One of the team members immediately said, "Boss, should we retreat? He's already spotted us, so it might not be effective. If others get hurt, it will be difficult to handle."

Vincent looked at the weapons he had already assembled and immediately said, "Let's try it. One shot each. If we hit him, we'll keep shooting until we kill him. If all five of us fail to hit him, we're leaving immediately. We only have one chance!"

The group nodded in agreement.

"Okay, I'm ready!"

"I've got my sights on..."

"Boss, shall we begin now?"

Vincent, peering through his scope at Wang Xiao's constantly shifting speed, said seriously, "Everyone, anticipate his position and fire together, aiming for a single hit..."

The group readily agreed and began to state the positions they were aiming at to prevent others from repeating their own.

The scopes of all the men were following Wang Xiao.

Everything—front, back, left, right, up, and down—was within their predictions.

Vincent suddenly said, "Burn it..."

Several men pulled the triggers at the same time!
Wang Xiao, who was on the runway in the distance, suddenly felt the White Tiger in his heart roar nervously.

Without the slightest hesitation or thought.

Wang Xiao tensed up, instantly exerting force with both feet, his blood and qi bursting forth, and leaped into the air, jumping two or three meters high. At the same time, his body curled up into a ball in the air, spinning like a sphere as he flew forward, minimizing his surface area and reducing the probability of being hit.

Whoosh...

whoosh...

whoosh...

Five whooshing sounds rang out in the air. Wang Xiao counted them carefully in his mind, and only after confirming that all five whooshing sounds had been heard did he stretch his body, land on his hands, roll on the ground, and continue running forward. He glanced at the tall building in the distance, focused his gaze, and saw five figures standing up on the building.

Vincent and his five men fired a shot together, anticipating Wang Xiao's dodge space in all directions, but they still didn't expect Wang Xiao to suddenly leap so high and curl up in a ball, causing all five sniper bullets to miss.

"This kid doesn't seem like a newcomer to China at all. His vigilance and evasive choices are just too perfect."

"It's incredible," one of the seasoned team members said.

Another team member asked, "Boss, shall we continue?"

Vincent shook his head: "No, pack up and let's go. We only have one chance! Continuing to shoot could easily cause friendly fire, and the terrain here is open, giving him plenty of room to dodge. He has the ability to sense danger, and as long as he keeps dodging, it will be difficult for us to hit him."

"Next time!"

"Have Liu Jingyu send some people over to cooperate with us."

After saying that, Vincent began packing his things, preparing to leave!

The others, upon hearing this, also began packing their things.

If the first attack misses, they quickly flee.

This has always been their style.

Regardless of whether the mission can be completed, ensuring one's own survival is the primary objective.

……

Zhang Zhenhua, who was in the car, saw Wang Xiao suddenly leap into the air and exclaimed in surprise to the 200,000 viewers in the live broadcast room, "Why did Master Wang suddenly jump up?"

Many viewers in the live stream were also puzzled.

"Holy crap, Master Wang jumped so high!"

"What happened? I was already confused by Master Wang's constant speed changes, and now he's suddenly jumping up and doing somersaults in the air. Is he showing off his stamina?"

"I don't know... it feels so impressive but incomprehensible..."

And the next instant.

The car window next to Zhang Zhenhua suddenly shattered.

The people inside the car were startled.

Zhang Zhenhua, the driver, and the team members all looked at the shattered glass. They saw a standard bullet hole that pierced through the glass and then through the other side of the car door, passing right in front of Zhang Zhenhua.

Everyone in the car felt their hair stand on end instantly.

"My grass!"

Startled, Zhang Zhenhua jumped up from his seat, his head hitting the roof of the car as he shouted, "Someone's firing! Stop the car!"

laugh!
The driver instinctively slammed on the brakes, and everyone in the car was terrified. They all ducked down to reduce the chances of being hit.

As Zhang Zhenhua crouched down, he quickly aimed the live-streaming camera at the bullet hole in the glass, then turned it to the other side of the pierced car door. His voice still trembling with fear, he said, "Family members, did you see that?! I'm truly risking my life to live-stream this to you all. This is a real bullet hole… Judging by the size of this hole, the caliber is probably quite large. It's definitely not some small, handheld gadget; it's likely a large, long-range sniper rifle…"

"Damn, I was wondering why Master Wang suddenly changed speed and then jumped up... I thought he was just stretching... Now it seems I was too narrow-minded and underestimated him. It turns out Master Wang probably sensed the danger beforehand, so he kept changing speed to avoid being targeted, and then suddenly jumped up to dodge the sniper bullets..."

"Too awesome..."

Zhang Zhenhua became more and more excited as he spoke.

Although that last move was extremely dangerous, he almost got eliminated immediately upon landing.

However, it also makes him extremely excited.

This is why many people enjoy dancing on the edge of a knife...

That does indeed cause an adrenaline surge, which is extremely stimulating and exciting.

The live stream chat was instantly flooded with comments.

"Really? Bullet holes? Someone was sniping at Master Wang while he was running? That's too dangerous."

"So, these people have become so ruthless in their efforts to stop Master Wang from winning the championship? Will there be artillery barrages and precision missile strikes later on?"

"What exactly does this championship represent? Why are so many people vying for it? They're even resorting to sniping now?"

"Sure enough, it's too dangerous abroad. I'm trembling with fear back home."

"Aren't island nations rated as one of the safest countries in the world?"

"The so-called world's safest rankings from abroad exclude China first and foremost! Even New Drug City and Angel City have been rated as one of the safest cities, which shows how much of this so-called safety is exaggerated."

"Master Wang, this competition is truly hellish... players ganging up on you... sniping from outside the arena... it's practically a bombardment..."

……

All the spectators were shocked, feeling that Wang Xiao wasn't in a running race, but in a war; it was too dangerous.

Zhang Zhenhua didn't dare get out of the car. He stayed in the car for a while and, noticing no movement outside, told the driver to continue driving. The number of people online had already reached more than 200,000.

The car accelerated until it caught up with Wang Xiao, who was still in third place.

Zhang Zhenhua, still excited, said, "Master Wang is in normal condition right now. He didn't change his pace or jump, so there shouldn't be any danger. Seriously, Master Wang is amazing. It's like he can sense danger and react in advance."

"Zhang Rui and Zhao Xing, the two players ahead, haven't changed much; they've just been running at high speed. It seems that the snipers aren't targeting everyone, but only Master Wang."

"If Master Wang can win the championship again in this competition, then the value of this championship will definitely be the highest in history..."

…………

Far away in Honolulu.

Liu Jingyu, Zhu Yun, and Chen Ying watched the live broadcast of the Japanese men's marathon together.

I witnessed everything that just happened.

Zhu Yun said with slight shock, "Wang Xiao's strength has grown too fast. His internal Iron Shirt technique has reached perfection. Now our punches can hardly penetrate his defenses. Only weapons and special drilling force can possibly harm him."

Chen Ying said softly, "Liu Fei, Ye Jinzhen, and Jiang Wu are stronger than any of us! Wang Xiao was able to withstand the combined force of their punches! If we want to get rid of him, we'll have to use other methods."

Liu Jingyu glanced at the messages on his phone and said, "Vincent and his team made one attempt but missed Wang Xiao. Vincent wants us to send people to assist them and make one more attempt before Wang Xiao leaves the island nation. Moreover, he wants to use heavy weaponry as support. Wang Xiao has the ability to sense danger, so a simple sniping attempt is almost impossible to succeed."

Zhu Yun's eyes flickered, her arms crossed, her whole demeanor extremely cold and stern. She said seriously, "Yuan Long is dead, and his family won't let Wang Xiao off the hook. Make his family provide Vincent with help. Their family has connections with Allen, and if Allen's people get involved, then Wang Xiao is doomed."

Liu Jingyu's eyes flickered; he didn't want to be associated with the name Allen.

but……

Watching Wang Xiao break through the combined attack of Liu Fei, Jiang Wu, Ye Jinzhen, Alex, John, Inoue Yan, and others, he still has the stamina to run and compete with Zhang Rui and Zhao Xing for the championship.

Liu Jingyu hesitated.

He knew the strength of Liu Fei, Jiang Wu, Ye Jinzhen, and the others. Liu Fei was stronger than him, while Ye Jinzhen and Jiang Wu were about equal in strength.

Sighing, Liu Jingyu remained silent, tacitly agreeing to Zhu Yun's suggestion that Yuan Long's family handle the matter, as this might allow Allen's people to get involved.

Zhu Yun looked at the silent Liu Jingyu and said, "Allen has always wanted to win over your Hongmen. If you are willing to cooperate with Allen, they will spare no expense to help you get rid of Wang Xiao. Zhao Tianwen of the Zhao family was so strong back then, but he was eventually eliminated as well."

Liu Jingyu shook his head: "That's impossible. Let's not talk about this anymore."

Zhu Yun nodded and said nothing more.

Chen Ying remained silent.

He was merely an outcast who had been expelled from the genealogy of the Huaxia Taiji Chen clan. He was practically all alone and had no right to speak.

Now, he's even considering withdrawing and no longer wanting to participate in the plan targeting Wang Xiao.

Wang Xiao's strength has grown too fast.

He felt that he no longer had the ability or strength to participate in the plan targeting Wang Xiao.

If he encounters Wang Xiao again, he might become cannon fodder that Wang Xiao can easily eliminate.

However, the thought that Chen Wen had already joined the Hongmen and become a disciple of the Liu family gave Chen Ying a feeling of being caught up in the world of martial arts and having no control over her own destiny.

Therefore, he could only remain silent and begin to minimize his presence.

…………

The scene of the game.

Wang Xiao didn't intend to speed up and overtake Zhao Xing and Zhang Rui; he simply tried to maintain the distance between them while circulating the Fierce Tiger Breathing technique to repair his internal injuries.

The stinging pain in my internal organs has mostly subsided.

With such powerful internal martial arts skills and such high physical fitness, their recovery ability is naturally also extraordinary.

The injuries I sustained this time were not as severe as the ones I suffered in the fight with Liu Jingyu and his group in Beijing.

Because when he withstood Liu Jingyu's full-force punch last time, his internal Iron Shirt technique was still at the Great Completion stage. Although it seemed to be only one stage away from the Perfection stage, the actual effect was more than ten times worse. Therefore, his internal organs were displaced by Liu Jingyu's cannon force.

This time, he used his perfected internal Iron Shirt technique to withstand several full-force attacks from masters several times without being seriously injured, and he has now recovered most of his strength.

Whirring whirring……

and!

Circulate your breath.

Wang Xiao felt that his muscles, tendons, fascia, bones, and internal organs had been repaired after the injury and become stronger. With his internal cultivation running at high speed, he also made some progress.

This made Wang Xiao feel a surge of excitement.

This is the benefit of combat. Real combat, and battles to the death!
That is the real shortcut to improving one's strength.

This is also why there are more martial arts masters overseas than in mainland China.

The overseas environment is dangerous. If you don't become stronger, you will be eliminated. Constantly walking on the edge of life and death will also accelerate your growth.

woohoo hoo...

Looking at the road signs beside him, Wang Xiao knew that the race was already halfway through, and he had run more than 20 kilometers. He needed to find an opportunity to catch up with the two people ahead of him.

Otherwise, if it drags on until the very end, he might have a chance to surpass Zhao Xing, but it would be very difficult for him to surpass Zhang Rui.

Zhang Rui's internal martial arts cultivation was even stronger than Xuan Lin's.

Wang Xiao could sense from Zhang Rui’s aura and the true meaning of the white tiger that Zhang Rui was exuding a feeling of dragons soaring and tigers leaping, with his aura exploding and dragon roars and tiger howls swirling around him!
He knew that this must be the legendary unique internal martial arts technique of Longhu Mountain.

The reason why Longhu Mountain is called Longhu Mountain is because all its martial arts are based on and evolved from a Tiger-shaped Fist and a Dragon-shaped Fist, which also fits the Taoist concept of the fusion of dragon and tiger. It has been developed for more than two thousand years and it is no exaggeration to say that it is the most profound family in China.

There are only two families in the world that have established such a long-standing tradition!
Zhang in the South and Kong in the North!

The Southern Zhang family refers to the Zhang family of Longhu Mountain, while the Northern Kong family is a lineage of descendants of Confucius from Qufu.

All the noble families and royal families of Europe and America are inferior to the historical heritage of Zhang Zhi in the south and Confucius in the north.

A century ago, Nan Zhang was forcibly split into two branches: one branch migrated to Taiwan, and the other remained in Longhu Mountain.

Zhang Rui is one of the geniuses of the Zhang family, a lineage known as the Dragon and Tiger Clan of Taiwan.

Wang Xiao carefully sensed Zhang Rui's aura. Zhang Rui's internal cultivation was the strongest he had ever seen, and not much weaker than his own.

Zhang Rui must have mastered at least one form of Dragon Fist or Tiger Fist to the point of perfection to possess such a powerful aura of qi and blood.

However, Wang Xiao felt that he was still somewhat better than Zhang Rui.

Otherwise, he would never be able to keep up with Zhang Rui's speed while injured.

Looking at Zhao Xing, Wang Xiao remembered a small favor Zhao Xing had done for him.

Although Zhao Xing didn't actually help him, he did help him hold off Zhang Rui.

otherwise……

If Zhang Rui and Liu Fei had attacked him together, he would have been seriously injured, if not killed, and unable to continue the competition.

Zhang Rui's strength surpasses that of Liu Fei and the others. His addition would significantly increase the threat to Wang Xiao. If he were to gang up on Wang Xiao with the others, they could definitely injure him severely.

Although Zhao Xing only stalled Zhang Rui for a short while, he did change the outcome.

Seeing that Wang Xiao had already taken care of several people, Zhang Rui gave up on attacking Wang Xiao and instead focused on winning the championship.

A faint smile appeared on Wang Xiao's lips.

champion!

That's mine.

With unwavering faith, the aura of a fierce tiger had already healed most of his internal injuries.

Wang Xiao immediately unleashed his power, his speed suddenly increasing dramatically, instantly closing the distance between him and Zhao Xing and Zhang Rui.

Not far away, Yang Xiaoyu, Dong Yuexi, Zhang Jun, and Sun Hong had already caught up in their car. Seeing Wang Xiao start to accelerate, a hint of joy appeared on their faces.

This indicates that Wang Xiao is in good condition and his injury is not too serious.

Sun Hong excitedly said, "Master Wang has started to pick up speed! He's already run 25 kilometers, and there are only 16 kilometers left to the finish line! Master Wang hasn't given up on winning, and he's only a few dozen meters behind Zhang Rui and Zhao Xing. His chances are very good..."

Zhang Zhiqiang and his security personnel glanced around warily.

Zhang Jun said, "Master Wang's belief in winning is beyond doubt. Now it all depends on their performance in the last ten kilometers. At their speed, they should be able to reach the finish line in no time."

Sun Hong took out his phone and looked at the real-time information from the previous reports. Many other ordinary runners had only run ten kilometers and were more than fifteen kilometers behind Wang Xiao and his two companions. This was no longer just a matter of being outnumbered.

Even Li Junkai, Guo Huai, Zhou Qing and more than a dozen other second-tier athletes were about one kilometer behind Wang Xiao, Zhang Rui and Zhao Xing, but they were still more than ten kilometers ahead of the ordinary athletes behind them!

This competition, held at a top international level, clearly demonstrated the vast difference between martial arts masters and ordinary people!
of course……

In reality, those top international athletes are not ordinary people either. They are already among the strongest of ordinary people, but the gap between them and Wang Xiao and others is still incalculable.

It's like how even the strongest ant is still just an ant; if someone steps on it, it will still be crushed...

Although Sun Hong, Zhang Jun, and others felt offended, the analogy was indeed very apt!
In front of Wang Xiao and Zhang Rui, many ordinary people are indeed no different from ants.

Yang Xiaoyu stared at Wang Xiao, her tiger aura surging wildly within her body, and the true meaning of the tiger gathering in her heart. She sensed the tiger aura and the true meaning of the white tiger on Wang Xiao not far away.

Wang Xiao also sensed it instantly, turned his head to look at the car not far away, and immediately saw Yang Xiaoyu and Dong Yuexi waving at him. He waved back to the two of them, smiled, and then continued running.

Yang Xiaoyu didn't speak to Wang Xiao, but smiled and said to Dong Yuexi, "Wang Xiao is fine now, his injuries have almost healed."

When Yang Xiaoyu was competing, Wang Xiao was able to use his fierce tiger aura to help Yang Xiaoyu circulate her qi and blood, improving the efficiency of qi and blood circulation.

At this moment, Yang Xiaoyu was also able to sense Wang Xiao's blood circulation through her own tiger aura, thus judging that Wang Xiao's injuries had almost recovered.

The two's auras almost merged into one, and they also sensed the fierce tiger intent condensed by the Tiger Form Fist.

Dong Yuexi looked at Yang Xiaoyu with some envy, then at Wang Xiao. She also circulated the fierce tiger aura within her body with all her might, carefully sensing with the fierce tiger aura at the minor completion stage. She could also faintly sense the majestic fierce tiger aura on Wang Xiao's body, as vast as the sun, and the true meaning of a white tiger as steady as a mountain.

A smile appeared on Dong Yuexi's pretty face; she could now sense Wang Xiao's aura.

At the same time, Dong Yuexi also sensed the powerful tiger aura emanating from Yang Xiaoyu and looked at Yang Xiaoyu.

Yang Xiaoyu also looked at Dong Yuexi and sensed the tiger aura emanating from her as well. She immediately smiled and said, "Did you feel it?"

Dong Yuexi nodded and smiled, nodding vigorously, "Mmm!"

She now understood why they had made such rapid progress in their martial arts training by Wang Xiao's side.

The closer one's aura is to Wang Xiao's, the more one can integrate with him, the more one can benefit from the aura and artistic conception of Wang Xiao's fist techniques, and the faster one's progress will be.

Although this would mean she would be completely tied to Wang Xiao from now on.

but……

Being able to be associated with Wang Xiao is a kind of luck, isn't it?
A happy smile unconsciously appeared on Dong Yuexi's face.

The car followed Wang Xiao's speed, watching as he accelerated and closed in on Zhao Xing, who was in second place.

Zhao Xing and Zhang Rui both sensed Wang Xiao's acceleration, so they also began to accelerate at the same time.

The three of them simultaneously began to increase their speed!
Sun Hong's eyes widened in surprise as he exclaimed, "Master Wang has sped up, and Zhang Rui and Zhao Xing have followed suit. All three of them have plenty of energy. To maintain this speed for so far and still be able to speed up is truly superhuman."

"They can run the 100 meters in under ten seconds now! When Master Wang broke the half marathon record last time, he ran 20 kilometers in just over ten seconds, which can be called a miracle."

"This time, Master Wang, Zhang Rui, and Zhao Xing have run nearly 30 kilometers at a speed of under 10 seconds per 100-meter dash. If this weren't an official competition, no one would believe it..."

"I can't even imagine what a terrifying men's marathon record they'll ultimately set..."

Those in the sports circle, including Zhang Jun, who were in the car, were filled with anticipation and awe upon hearing this.

Upon closer reflection, it feels even more terrifying.

…………

And in the finish line area.

A large number of media and spectators have gathered, all watching the live footage of the match captured by drones.

of course……

The main focus is on tracking the matches between Zhang Rui, Zhao Xing, and Wang Xiao.

The host exclaimed excitedly, "The three people at the front are still accelerating... My God, they're like Supermen, running this fast all the time, they even had a fight in the middle, and they still have the stamina to accelerate... I can't imagine how they can be so strong! I strongly suggest we study their bodies and find out if they're actually robots..."

"How could a normal human body, made of flesh and blood, be so powerful?"

The host voiced the shock and questions that many ordinary viewers and people in the sports world had.

The host continued, "Look at those ordinary athletes behind us, several of whom are world champions and top long-distance runners... yet these three have pulled ahead by eighteen kilometers. They've already run thirty kilometers, while the others have only run twelve... a full eighteen kilometers... what an incredible gap... it's simply unimaginable..."

Many media outlets and figures in the sports world nodded in agreement.

"This is so unfair. I strongly suspect they are all bio-warriors and robots, otherwise they couldn't possibly be this ridiculously strong."

"This makes it impossible for others to compete."

"If they continue to participate in competitions in the future, then there will be no point in all other ordinary athletes participating."

"I will have my players forfeit the match in protest."

"Indeed, I also advised my athletes to withdraw from the competition in protest! If no one is participating, what's the point of holding the competition?"

……

Many people in the sports world have protested, and some have even started discussing having their athletes withdraw from subsequent marathons and other races as a form of protest, putting pressure on the organizers and the IAAF to ban powerful martial arts masters such as Wang Xiao, Zhang Rui, Zhao Xin, and Liu Fei from participating.

They felt that if the number of participants decreased significantly, the purpose of holding such a world competition would be lost, and the organizers of many competitions and the IAAF would definitely compromise. At that time, they would take back control and permanently ban martial arts masters such as Wang Xiao and Zhang Rui from participating.

Many other media outlets in the sports world, always eager for drama, chimed in with their opinions.

"Yes, I support you, and I will report your demands."

"They are all abnormally powerful and should be banned. I support you."

"Well done! This is how you fight against injustice and fight for your rightful rights."

Many media reporters shared this interview information with their editorial departments.

Numerous reports about the match quickly appeared in sports media around the world, along with protest messages from people in the sports world.

Many people, seeing such a large gap in skill levels, started watching out of curiosity.

The match quickly gained worldwide attention, but the protests by people in the sports world received very little attention.

Most ordinary people don't care about the thoughts of the weak.

They just want to watch exciting matches and are curious about just how strong players like Wang Xiao, Zhang Rui, and Zhao Xing are, and why they are so strong.

They were even more interested in the detailed account of the battle between Wang Xiao, Liu Fei, Ye Jinzhen, Jiang Wu, and others!

The host's voice rang out again: "Wang Xiao is accelerating; he's caught up with Zhao Xing, who looks somewhat surprised. Zhao Xing was already speeding up, but he could only watch helplessly as Wang Xiao slowly overtook him. Meanwhile, Zhang Rui, who was in the lead, was still accelerating, but remained several tens of meters behind Wang Xiao."

"It's clear that Zhao Xing is the weakest of the three..."

"Now only Wang Xiao and Zhang Rui are left to compete for the final championship... They have already run more than 30 kilometers, and there are less than 10 kilometers left before reaching the finish line. Now it's time for the final sprint..."

"Of course, they were actually sprinting the whole time, maintaining a speed of just over nine seconds for the 100-meter dash, and they ran more than 30 kilometers..."

The host exclaimed again, "They're simply inhuman!"

A time of just over nine seconds in the 100 meters is enough to win a championship in a 100-meter race. Many of the world's top 100-meter runners can only maintain this speed in the 100-meter race. Their speed will inevitably drop after the 100 meters because such a sprint consumes a lot of energy.

but……

Wang Xiao, Zhang Rui, and Zhao Xing maintained a speed of just over nine seconds per 100-meter dash, covering a distance of more than 30 kilometers.

Everyone in the sports world who was following the game was shocked and trembling.

They all knew that with their performance, if the three of them participated in other track and field events, they would be a force to be reckoned with against the athletes in those events.

after all……

If the three of them can maintain this speed for more than 30 kilometers, what about when they unleash their full power within 100 meters?
Many people in the sports world cannot imagine what amazing 100-meter times the three of them would achieve if they went all out in the race.
Eight seconds?

Seven seconds?

Six seconds?

They dare not think.

Besides the 100-meter race, there are also 200-meter, 800-meter, 1000-meter, 5000-meter, 10,000-meter, and so on...

These projects will become the areas that Wang Xiao and his team can sweep through.

……

Nanyang!

Star City!

Zhao Han, Zhao Wei, and Zhao Jun watched the live broadcast of the match in their room.

I saw that Wang Xiao surpassed Zhao Xing.

Zhao Jun shook his head and said, "There's no hope! Zhao Xing can't catch up with them. Wang Xiao's internal cultivation is too strong. He was repairing his internal injuries while running, and now his internal injuries are almost healed, so he's starting to unleash them."

Zhao Wei nodded: "That's right, Wang Xiao's internal injuries have almost recovered, which is why he was able to surpass Zhao Xing. It remains to be seen whether he can catch up with Zhang Rui. Zhang Rui's strength is extraordinary. His Tiger Form Fist is perfected, and his Dragon Form Fist is highly accomplished. He has already begun to integrate the dragon and tiger. Once the Dragon Form Fist is perfected and the dragon and tiger are both perfected, Zhang Rui's strength will soar to new heights."

"After years of development, Longhu Mountain martial arts have incorporated the internal alchemy methods of the Quanzhen School. I've heard that one can condense an internal elixir based on the fusion of dragon and tiger, which is the legendary realm."

Zhao Han: "Wang Xiao is even more terrifying than Zhang Rui. He's mastered Tiger Form Fist, Six Harmonies Fist, and Internal Iron Shirt! He also has the aura of Dacheng Tai Chi. He's abnormally strong. I wonder how he cultivated himself. Brother, if you participate in this competition, do you have a chance to defeat Wang Xiao?"

Zhao Wei paused for a moment, then shook his head: "I don't know!"

Zhao Han then asked, "If you had been there, would you have participated in the attack on Wang Xiao?"

Zhao Wei shook his head: "No, I will do the same as Zhao Xing and not get involved. Our Zhao family lineage prioritizes inheritance and tries our best not to get involved in other people's affairs. This is the survival rule that has allowed us to pass down for hundreds of years."

Zhao Han: "Then will you help Wang Xiao?"

Zhao Wei shook his head again: "I said I won't participate! However, there's a match in the Middle East in a while, and I'll go and meet Wang Xiao then."

Zhao Han exclaimed excitedly, "I'm going too!"

Zhao Wei nodded and looked at Zhao Jun: "Zhao Jun, you should go too!"

Zhao Jun's eyes widened: "I'm also participating in the Middle East competition?"

Zhao Wei: "Yes, you should participate and experience it."

Zhao Jun did not refuse and nodded, saying, "Okay!"

Zhao Han felt a sense of anticipation, hoping that time would pass quickly so she could see Wang Xiao soon.

…………

woohoo hoo...

Wang Xiao and Zhang Rui could already hear each other breathing.

The two were less than ten meters apart.

Zhang Rui's breathing became increasingly heavy, his physical strength was greatly depleted, and the dragon-tiger energy within his body was circulating at high speed. He was also taking relatively effortless steps, but they were not as concise and efficient as Wang Xiao's.

This difference in pace may not be very noticeable in sprinting.

but……

In a long run of over forty kilometers, one can accumulate a significant advantage.

This is also one of Wang Xiao's advantages.

Hearing Wang Xiao's clear breathing and footsteps behind him, Zhang Rui felt a pang of regret for not having forcefully surrounded and attacked Wang Xiao earlier.

If he participates and joins Liu Fei and the others in attacking Wang Xiao, they will definitely be able to severely injure Wang Xiao and prevent him from participating in the competition. Even if Zhao Xing runs ahead for a while, he will still have a chance to catch up with Zhao Xing.

As a result, he was held up by Zhao Xing for a while, and missed the best opportunity to besiege Wang Xiao. He then gave up besieging Wang Xiao and wanted to take advantage of Wang Xiao's injury to defeat him and win the championship!
but……

He hadn't expected Wang Xiao's internal cultivation to be so powerful. He was able to maintain his speed and keep up with him all the way, while simultaneously recovering from his internal injuries. After recovering, he was even able to accelerate and catch up with him.

This was stronger than he had expected.

call……

Zhang Rui's eyes narrowed, and his inner energy condensed. A roar of a dragon and a howl of a tiger rose from his body as he tried to put pressure on Wang Xiao with the true intent of a fierce tiger and a true intent of a true dragon, thereby affecting Wang Xiao's performance in the competition.

However, he underestimated Wang Xiao's true intention of the White Tiger.
