Just like Wu Weimin, Kang Dong-Woo's words were broadcast to the entire arena. The arena gasped in surprise.
However, Kang Dong-Woo, who was always happy to hear the cheers of the crowd, had a solemn look on his face.
He stepped back with his right foot and clenched his palm into a fist.
Bwoosh!
The crimson flame flared up and covered his hand up to his elbow.
"Wooooow!" The crowd immediately exclaimed in surprise. During the junior event, none of the contestants had used an awakening ability, and Kang Dong-Woo was the first contestant to use an awakening ability.
The spectators were certainly surprised by the sight. The whole arena buzzed with heated conversation.
Wu Weimin himself was still calm... No, he was smiling at Dong-Woo. Not the slightest fear could be found in his eyes. Instead, he was excited when he saw the flame on Dong-Woo's hand.
He grinned and opened his palm, "Hahaha... Do you think you are the only one with an awakening ability?"
After uttering these words, a spark of yellow thunder came out of his body. After that, he let out a carefree laugh as the thunder ran amok in the arena.
This time, the entire arena erupted into an uproar. Two competitors with an awakening ability would clash, there was nothing more exciting than that.
"But Wu Weimin's awakening seems a bit stronger than Kang Dong-Woo's flame!"
"I'm afraid that Kang Dong-Woo will lose..."
The discussions about Kang Dong-Woo's imminent defeat reached Myung-Hee. Myung-Hee was affected, as you could see the worry on her face. The same was true for Kang Sang-Hee, as a mother she did not want her son to get hurt.
Heero rubbed Myung-Hee's red hair and said, "Don't worry and trust your brother, he will win the match!"
Kang Myung-Hee clenched her little fist and nodded her head, "Hmm... I think Brother Dong-Woo will win!"
Yang Mushen sighed in exasperation. as two boys showed off their awakening abilities. Using an unstable awakening ability only added to his workload.
He looked at the laughing Wu Weimin and nodded. He turned to the other side to see if Kang Dong-Woo was ready or not.
Yang Mushen thought that Kang Dong-Woo would be overwhelmed by Wu Weimin. However, he noticed that Dong-Woo's grin was getting wider.
"Kikiki..." Kang Dong-Woo let out an evil laugh, "It's good if you have something to defend against my flame! Kikiki... I really will do my best!"
Kang Dong-Woo nodded at Yang Mushen, but the latter saw no change in Dong-Woo's flame.
Hahhh... who cares if it's a bluff or not? I am just a referee here!
"Start!"
As soon as he said that, a strong heat hit his cheek. He looked back in Dong-Woo's direction only to find an overwhelming flame covering Dong-Woo's entire right arm. Not only that, the flame also burned his toe.
The flame was ten meters long and five meters in diameter. It was overwhelming even for Yang Mushen.
Wu Weimin's laughter stiffened as the flame grew. Compared to the flame, his thunder could be a joke.
Kang Dong-Woo wasted no time and rushed forward. This time, he went all out, and in a flash, Kang Dong-Woo was in front of the stunned Wu Weimin.
Wu Weimin was taken by surprise as he faced the overwhelming flame. He did not even try to defend himself against the attack, leaving him dazed.
Yang Mushen was the same, he had not expected Kang Dong-Woo to be so fast. He should have stopped Dong-Woo as soon as he saw the flame, but Kang Dong-Woo's flame left him shocked, so he was too late to make a move to stop Kang Dong-Woo.
No doubt, if Kang Dong-Woo's attack had hit Wu Weimin, he would have been dead for sure.
In the luxury boxes where the Wu family was sitting, a middle-aged man stood up. Not only him, but everyone in the luxury box stood up in panic.
In another box, Kang Myung-Chul also stood up in shock. He was not surprised by his grandson's awakening but by the power of his grandson's awakening.
Just as the flame was about to hit Wu Weimin, a shadow slipped into the arena.
Kang Dong-Woo himself was in a state of panic as Wu Weimin stood there dazed. He also knew that this guy would die for sure if he did not defend his attack.
Then he heard a familiar voice, "What are you doing? Are you becoming a murderer? I told you not to go all out in the competition!"
With the voice, the flame disappeared. Yes, the whole and a huge flame disappeared from the arena. It shocked all the spectators, including those in the luxury boxes.
"What happened? What happened?" All the spectators asked the same thing at the same time, and it echoed throughout the arena.
Even Yang Mushen, who was the closest to the battle, took a seat in bewilderment. However, the answer was soon revealed when they saw a young man appear between Kang Dong-Woo and Wu Weimin.
The young man seemed to be scolding Kang Dong-Woo as the screen showed the young man punching Dong-Woo's head. Meanwhile, Kang Dong-Woo's head was hanging low.
The sudden appearance of the young man confused the audience as they could not see when the young man entered the arena.
Judging by his outfit, the young man was clearly not the referee or a committee of fighters. The referee himself was rooted to the spot.
Seeing the young man, Yang Mushen rushed forward and asked in a questioning tone, "Who are you?"
He scanned the young man carefully.
Heero turned to the referee and bowed slightly, "Sorry to interrupt the match, but I have to stop my disciple! If I don't stop him, the other boy might..."
He did not finish his words, but Yang Mushen understood the meaning behind those unfinished words.
"So you are Kang Dong-Woo's master?" Yang Mushen asked doubtfully.
"Yes, I am the head of the Heero Academy and Kang Dong-Woo is my disciple. I leave the rest to you, whether my disciple will emerge as the winner or will be disqualified because he almost killed his opponent. We will accept your decision!" Heero nodded and expressed his opinion.
In his opinion, his disciple had crossed the line by almost killing his opponent. Even if the referee decided to disqualify Dong-Woo, he would not complain.
The purpose of the junior event was to find a young talented hero. If the contestant was killed, it would have the opposite effect of holding the Junior Event in the Fighter Anteriority.
"No, you can't disqualify him! He's the winner of this match and deserves a place in the finals!" A stunned Wu Weimin spoke out of nowhere. He conceded defeat as the cockiness he had shown earlier was nowhere to be seen.
After saying that, Wu Weimin looked at Heero, "Thank you for saving my life!"
Then he turned to Kang Dong-Woo, with a solemn look on his face, he pointed his finger at Kang Dong-Woo's face, "I admit my defeat today, but I will return this defeat in the Senior Event four years from now!"
With that, he turned around, only to stop after a few steps. He turned and bowed to Heero, "I am sorry for despising you! But I will prove that we Wu family are much better in four years!"
Clap! Clap! Clap! Clap!
Thunderous applause echoed throughout the arena. It was unknown where the applause was directed, at the winner or at Wu Weimin, who conceded defeat.
"Kang Dong-Woo has won!" Yang Mushen announced the winner.
