Chapter 5 - Fight! On

The cub of the raider goblin when came smashing at Cheng, which made most of the people in the gallery open their eyes in shock.

The heavy cub of the goblin was at least around, 20kg in weight, and no normal person would like to take it head-on was the part of their regular teaching.

Where any person with some common sense would think like that in this world. But it was not something Cheng would do, given for him it was a chance.

Where he was taught, that the moment a heavy weapon strike. Is the moment the user of the weapon is full of opening points. To which, only an idiot would leave such a chance to attack.

So, Cheng! shifted his weight to the right side of his body, making it tilt a little and avoid the hammer strike, which was an inch away from Cheng.

After that strike, an opening appeared in front of him to retaliate. Which was right straight at the armpit of the Goblin.

Which can also be called a dislocation joint, where the human-shaped beast's weakness lies.

If the given force behind Cheng's fist was used at the right momentum.

Killing the Goblin was not a hard task, but it would not be fun to kill that thing so easily. After all, he was a 2nd stage mana body refiner of his world.

That was the reason why, they did not know when to give up a close fight, closer to life and death situation. One can say, those kinds of fights are what excites them and their blood, which was running inside them.

"Grah!' The beast screamed in pain, as it look at Cheng with eyes filled with hostility. Making Cheng stun, given according to Kuzuha it was simply an illusion, then what was wrong with this.

The Goblin expression and emotion were that of a real deal.

Goblin tried to pull up the cub, but with its one arm dislocated, it was unable to pull it up to support his attack.

Though the weight of the club was around 20 kg, which was not something Goblin would be able to pull up with its left hand only.

Hence!

Goblin's eyes glinted, as it leave the weapon there while rushing with its huge body toward Cheng. The poor thing, when left with no choice, selected the best situation to use its body to kill Cheng.

Putting everything on this one smash of his. But! unknown to him, he was doomed to fail, the moment it selected this option.

Cheng reacted on time again, as he twisted his body and grabbed the head of the goblin who ran past him for a second and leave it in that instant too.

Turning to look back Cheng saw the same Goblin looking at him, with the same hostility and grievance, but at this moment only its face was facing Cheng.

Where his body was facing toward the opposite direction of the head.

The end of 2nd round. Challenger is the winner.

Moving up to the third round...

At present, it was total silence when the voice rang. Telling them, the end of 2nd round.

The stout man that previously fought in the ring before Cheng's fight was also fighting the same second round of this challenging game. To which he was unable to defeat that opponent of his and even was struggling a lot during the fight.

But it came as surprise to see a boy with an age around 14 to 15.

Who was standing before them? Had taken a small period of time, to kill that same opponent with ease. Which he was struggling against so much.

Where Cheng was moving up to challenge the 3rd round. To face the opponent, none of them had seen for last 5 years. It was after 5 years has passed, that a new challenger whose potential in war technique had reached this degree has appeared in their small town.

To which several bystanders, who were just moving around in the town started to collect around the arena to see the match, after all, the shout from the people in the gallery. All taking about 'legend.' '3rd round.' was something anyone can deduce about the situation.

'Tch! Its Mikai family friend.'

'Hmm! It's the Mikai family, they are about to rise again huh!'

'Yeah, that kid can be said as a genius! Let's see to which round he can last for.'

Surrounding people from different aristocratic families started to gossip. Where Cheng! Who was unaware of all the thing, which was happening around him was ready to fight against the new opponent.

That happens to be a hobgoblin, with tremendous speed, reaction, and power. That no one on the same level is able to take on, appeared in front of him.

Cheng, who was not well aware of this kind, but with the pressure, it was a given, that he was able to deduce the danger he was about to face.

"This one is a hard shell to break, But I don't believe that I won't be able to kill this thing." Cheng smiled at the opponent which appeared in front of him and took his stance for the first time.

'Bang.' Hobgoblin smashed its leg sending the shockwave while it also increased the momentum behind its body and punch.

For Cheng! The Hobgoblin movement was a little blurry and sharp, as the huge figure appeared in front of him, while a huge punch headed toward his face.

'I will die if I take it on the head. While I don't think, I can avoid this one.'

Sss! Everyone took a deep chilly breath, as they sigh, after all, it was impossible to dodge or fight this movement.

Where Kuzuha and Suzuha revealed a worried expressions. After all, the pain felt inside the illusion is very real and torturing, that is the reason why most sent want to fight inside it.

Given the pain was so real, the pain felt at the higher round also increase closer to reality.

At that critical juncture, a sharp punch happens to strike the corner of the punch from Hobgoblin and makes it gaze through Cheng's arm by a 1 mm of difference.

Sss! People in the gallery took a deep chilly breath, at the way Cheng handled that punch while making most of the people's legs become jelly with tension.

"Awesome!" a scream rocked the whole watching gallery, while those who were recording the fight in video crystal. Jumped up in shock and excitement.

"So cool!" Suzuha murmured, looking at the smiling face of Cheng as it was gazing at Hobgoblin with a sarcastic smile.

'That's it, It's my turn now.' As Cheng murmured those words. His body had shifted all of its weight, in his left part, while his straight left punch zoomed like a rocket and appeared in front of Hobgoblin's face.

'Hooyah!' People dashed at the edge of the gallery to see them move in a closer look, where Hobgoblin smirked and its left thick arm stopped that punch.

Again sending chill in everyone spine.

Cheng was not surprised, as he was also prepared for this. Where he jumped at the tip of his leg to regain the center of gravity for his body and jumped back regaining some distance.

This quick set was played out flawlessly by him, which was the reason why.

He was also called the little genius in his childhood, given his comprehension power was not something, anyone could have matched that easily.

Since the beginning of the match, everyone in the gallery was feeling the rush of excitement and nonstop thrill.

Making few people's hairs standing on their hands, as they all continue to watch the match where Hobgoblin launched himself with tremendous momentum toward Cheng! While Cheng, who was already aware of the powerful momentum of Hobgoblin moved his body fast and quick in response.

Making the impossible dodge a possibility in front of the people. Sending another layer of shockwave in the crowd, which appeared to be increasing at a tremendous rate.

To the point, the Mikai family retainer appeared right by Kuzuha and Suzuha's side.

Taking a horse-sending standing stance. Where the force which was sent into Cheng's right leg, which whipped at the hanging temple of the Hobgoblin, as Cheng strike for the kill.

The Hobgoblin felt the chill between his legs, as he stopped the whip kick with its left leg making him a little unstable.

But knowing that Cheng was looking for the direct kill, it did not make any effort to gain its balance while he punched with the power of all of its weight.

'I got you.' Cheng smiled at the looks of it, as he did not retreat but moved forward toward the punch.

"Ahh!"

Several people screamed, but those who were in the previous matches knew what Cheng was trying to do. So it did not come as a surprise to all of them.

'Dive in.' Cheng's body dived down, while his body momentum was used by his right leg to slam on the ground, causing the ground to send out recoil to its leg.

Which was used by cheng to turn into a rotating force. As he used all the other momentum to mix with rotating force, and sent a rocking uppercut, at the chin of the Hobgoblin.

Who could only helplessly look at the coming punch, with no chance to dodge with its unstable body of his?

The punch connected, which sent a shockwave enough to make Hobgoblin blood vessels on the head explode under the pressure of the punch. Killing it in that instant.
