Chapter 288 Boxing Championship
The boxing championship is held every five years and is the most important and grandest competition in the entire Yunyang Kingdom.
At that time, experts from all over the continent will gather here, and even people from other countries sometimes come back to join in the fun.
Whoever wins the boxing championship will become famous throughout the world.
The boxing championship will last for a whole month, from the preliminary rounds to the final. During this month, people will only pay attention to this one match.
Even the battles between various tribes and factions will be suspended for this month.
People temporarily cease hostilities to celebrate this grand event.
Therefore, the people of Yunyang Continent call this month the 'King of Boxing Month'.
The title of "Boxing King" refers to those whose cultivation has reached the Sound Martial Realm.
However, most of the participants in the boxing tournament were still at the Spirit Martial Realm, since the Sound Martial Realm was a realm that ordinary people could not reach.
Moreover, most of the true masters have already disdained this mundane world.
Throughout the entire boxing tournament, the only person at the Sound Martial Realm was the Grand Guardian, who was also the favorite to win this year's championship and Leng Yun's greatest enemy.
The other contestants were all at the 8th or 9th level of the Spirit Martial Realm.
In the blink of an eye, seven days had passed, and Leng Yun had long since arrived in Yunyang Kingdom.
Since the boxing championship was an event hosted by the royal family of Yunyang Kingdom, it was naturally to be held in Yunyang City, the center of the country.
Yunyang City was originally the capital of the country, and it was usually a place of great prosperity.
During the event, people from the entire Yunyang Kingdom have gathered here, making the streets a bustling scene with a constant flow of people.
Leng Yun, Murong Qin, and Zhang Yu formed a team. Behind him were Zheng Guo, Chen Bing, Pu Feng, and others, all there to cheer him on.
Before long, the group passed through the bustling crowd and arrived at the city's main square.
The square was enormous, capable of holding thousands of people. In the center was a large arena, and countless golden-armored guards patrolled the entire square, maintaining order.
The boxing championship match will be held on this large arena.
Although the square was large, it was already packed with people when Leng Yun arrived, a dense, bustling mass of faces.
They could only reach the center of the square through a special passage for the athletes.
At this moment, the teams that were going to participate in the boxing championship were already waiting in a large room, and then the draw ceremony was about to take place.
The rules of the competition are that each team has three participants. Teams compete in pairs, with the three players going up against each other in a round-robin format. The team whose three players lose all of their players will have their competition ended, and the remaining team will advance to the next round.
After the preliminary rounds, a total of 16 teams entered the preliminary rounds of the boxing championship.
As they were talking, Leng Yun had already entered the room, and the first thing he saw was Zhou Si's team. Zhou Si had brought Mi Tian and another expert from the Inner Court Boxing King Ranking.
Zhou Si gave Leng Yun a gloomy look and revealed a sinister smile.
“I’ve already inquired about them and I’m quite familiar with them,” Zhang Yu said.
Then, he pointed to a person sitting in the corner and said, "Look, that's the legendary Grand Guard Du Yiwan. He's the favorite to win the championship this time."
Leng Yun looked in the direction Zhang Yu was looking and sure enough, he found a person sitting by the wall, resting with his eyes closed. Although he was expressionless, he exuded a kingly aura that made people around him afraid to approach him.
Leng Yun gazed at the legendary Grand Guard, when suddenly the latter opened his eyes, his gaze sharp and meaningful as he gave Leng Yun a meaningful look.
Immediately, the chief guard closed his eyes again, ignoring Leng Yun.
"And then there's that one, also a big favorite this time, Li Lei from the Northern Team. He's incredibly arrogant, but his cultivation is extremely high," Zhang Yu continued.
Leng Yun looked at the location Zhang Yu pointed to and found an arrogant person sitting in front of everyone, looking very pleased with himself. The two people on his team seemed to have their brilliance completely overshadowed by this Li Lei.
Then, Zhang Yu lowered his voice and said, "Besides that, people from the Southern Frontier are also coming this year. I've heard they're a very vicious group, so we have to be extremely careful."
As Zhang Yu spoke, he glanced somewhat uneasily at the three people not far away.
All three were dressed in black and had their faces covered, just like the black-clad alchemist Leng Yun had encountered before. They seemed to be from the Southern Frontier.
The way these three people looked at Leng Yun was also strange, seemingly filled with hatred. Leng Yun suspected that these people might know that he had killed the black-clad alchemist.
As Murong Qin entered the room, everyone inside turned their eyes to her.
Such an ethereal and peerless woman is not something even these experts encounter often, so they naturally took a few extra glances at her.
However, Murong Qin was somewhat displeased, and a faint purple power appeared in her hand.
Seeing this, Zhang Yu quickly went over to stop Murong Qin: "Oh my, my dear aunt, please don't lose your temper here."
Leng Yun found it amusing. He thought to himself that Zhang Yu was a waste of the title 'Bear King'. He should be a fearless man, but he was so cautious.
"Who are those people?" Leng Yun suddenly noticed three strangely dressed people who didn't seem to be from Yunyang Kingdom, but these three people were faintly exuding a powerful force.
“These must be top fighters from Fanglai Country. I heard there’s a team from Fanglai Country in this year’s boxing championship, and they shouldn’t be underestimated either,” Zhang Yu said.
Leng Yun nodded. Even before the match started, he could sense the formidable power emanating from many of the people present.
Although he was mentally prepared, Leng Yun couldn't help but sigh when he was in this environment. This place was indeed much better than the atmosphere of the Fist God Academy.
Even figures like him and Zhou Si, who were influential figures at the Fist God Academy, showed no sense of superiority here.
"Damn it, when is the match starting? I can't wait any longer!" A sudden shout broke the peace of the waiting room.
Leng Yun looked in the direction of the voice and saw Li Lei from the Northern Team, who was shouting loudly with a hint of arrogance on his face.
At this moment, a middle-aged man dressed in fine clothes walked over: "Excuse me, excuse me, I am Fang Guan, the host of this competition. We will now begin the draw ceremony."
"Why bother with the draw? I think these trash teams are just here to embarrass themselves." Li Lei said, then turned to look at the position of the chief guard, Du Yiwan.
Then, Li Lei said with a smile, "Hehe, Chief Guard, why don't we just have a match? Whoever wins will be this year's champion, and it'll save us from wasting time."
