Chapter 963: Submission
Zhou Tong's long sword moved horizontally, blocking Tu Hu's sharp knife.
Zheng——
The swords intersected, making a clear and deafening sound of metal clashing, sparks flying, and dazzling light.
Two different streams of true energy from Tu Hu and Zhou Tong's bodies also burst out when the swords of the two sides clashed, colliding together in the space in front of the two people, making a dull roar.
Immediately, the shock wave formed by the true essence spread out in all directions. Several disciples of Bitao Martial Arts School who were standing closer were affected and were knocked to the ground by the force of the shock wave. Although they were not injured, they were in a state of embarrassment and turned pale with fear.
Although Zhou Tong blocked Tu Hu's long sword with his long sword, the power of true energy from Tu Hu's blade caused his body to tremble like an electric shock, and the ground under his feet also trembled. Under the impact of the true energy, cracks extended in all directions like a spider web.
Zhou Tong felt his chest suffocate, and the energy and blood in his body surged. If he hadn't suppressed it in time, a mouthful of blood would have spurted out.
Tu Hu's first blow was already so powerful and domineering, could he still be able to withstand the next attack?
Zhou Tong took advantage of the situation and retreated several feet away, confronting Tu Hu across a few boulders with a solemn look on his face.
"Junior Brother Tu, it's just a misunderstanding between us. How about letting it go? Look around, there are many teams of warriors gathered here. If we both lose half, wouldn't we give them a chance to take advantage?"
What was unexpected was that Zhou Tong suddenly surrendered to Tu Hu.
Zhou Tong surrendered out of helplessness.
The sword that Tu Hu had just used had already shown its powerful combat power. Zhou Tong knew that if he continued to fight, he would definitely be defeated.
Instead of being seriously injured and humiliated when defeated, it is better to shake hands and make peace now that the outcome is still undecided.
Although for Zhou Tong, who is a core disciple, this kind of submissive attitude is nothing less than a shame, it is better than being severely injured by the slaughtered tiger and possibly dying in the hinterland of the mountains.
As long as you save your life, it's not too late to take revenge if you have the opportunity in the future.
Zhou Tong was certain that Tu Hu would shake hands with him and make peace.
Although Tu Hu's combat power was better than his, the two of them were both heaven-level high-level experts. If they really put all their strength into the duel, even if Tu Hu could win in the end, it would be a tragic victory that would kill a thousand people and damage himself by eight hundred.
Zhou Tong's bet was that Tu Hu was not willing to suffer a tragic victory in exchange for victory in this duel.
Several teams watching from a distance saw Zhou Tong surrendering to Tu Hu, and their eyes towards Tu Hu became more complicated.
They all knew that after this battle, the name of Tu Hu would spread throughout Bitao Martial Academy.
There are also some Bitao Martial Arts disciples who like to watch the commotion and feel sorry. They think that Zhou Tong took the initiative to surrender and stop fighting. Tu Hu definitely didn't want to lose both sides and would go along with the truce, so that the excitement would not be seen.
Huang Miao and others all turned their eyes to Tu Hu, waiting for him to make a decision.
In fact, although Huang Miao and others were on Tu Hu's side, from the bottom of their hearts, they did not want to really conflict with Zhou Hu and others.
It would be great if both sides could really stop fighting and shake hands to make peace.
Fang Bai crossed his arms and looked at Tu Hu with a smile.
Everyone else speculated that Tu Hu might strike out with Zhou Tong, but only he knew that this was absolutely impossible.
Because he could sense that after Zhou Tong showed weakness, Tu Hu's warrior aura not only did not weaken, but actually increased. This was by no means a kind response.
Sure enough, Zhou Tong's show of weakness did not bring Tu Hu to stop fighting. Tu Hu snorted coldly, slashed diagonally with his long sword, and attacked Zhou Tong again, with even greater force.
"Tuhu, you are crazy!"
Zhou Tong swung his sword to block Tuhu's long knife, and once again threw his body back a few feet, he shouted angrily.
"Senior Brother Zhou, if I am still the Tuhu who is only at the middle level of heaven, will you let me go?"
The long sword in Tu Hu's hand slashed like lightning, the light flashed, and the sword energy was everywhere. Before Zhou Tong could reply, he sneered and said: "You can't! You will hit me hard first, and then take away the hard work of our team." The hard-earned cultivation resources, and then go away!"
"But when you found out that I was stronger than you, you were afraid, regretted, and worried that you would be hit hard by me and die in the mountains. So you took the initiative to surrender and wanted to stop fighting... You must have thought , I will agree to it as much as I want, right?"
"You are wrong! I will not promise you! Two years ago, I was defeated by Senior Brother Liu, who was at the bottom of your core disciples' combat power list, and suffered all the humiliation. Since then, I have been practicing hard, hoping that one day I can I'll avenge my shame! Originally, I wanted to wait until this experience was over before challenging Senior Brother Liu, but I didn't expect you to come to me on your own initiative..."
"Originally, I didn't want to conflict with you, but you were aggressive and wanted to snatch our cultivation resources. I am the captain of this team. If our cultivation resources are taken away by you, wouldn't it be wrong for me as the captain Want to lose face?"
"You are a core disciple, and you are ranked eighth on the core disciples' combat strength list. This is something you can be proud of, and it can also be a reason for you to despise and bully our inner court disciples. And our inner court disciples are weak in the face of I am unable to resist your bullying and oppression, so I can only endure it silently."
"But you have forgotten that you have also stepped from the inner court disciple to today. You can be promoted from the inner court disciple to the core disciple, so why can't others? Now, let me, the inner court disciple, challenge you, the core disciple Be a disciple!”
"Originally, my challenge target was Senior Brother Liu, who was at the bottom of your core disciples' combat power list and had defeated and severely injured me. But today, you bullied us, so let me defeat you first!"
The long knife in Tu Hu's hand kept swinging out, each one stronger and faster than the last. His voice became louder and louder, and in the end he almost roared.
"You want to defeat me? You're dreaming! I'm not Junior Brother Liu Xiong! I'm much stronger than Junior Brother Liu!"
Zhou Tong's eyes were red and he screamed, using all his strength to resist Tu Hu's sword attack that was getting faster and more fierce.
His hair was messy, his clothes had been torn by the wind of the knife, there were several long bloody wounds on his body, and there were bloodshot threads overflowing from the corners of his mouth.
At this time, everyone could see that Tu Hu became more and more courageous as he fought and had the upper hand, while Liu Tong was injured both internally and externally under his offensive. He was already at the end of his strength and could be knocked down at any time.
"I admit that you are stronger than Senior Brother Liu, but Senior Brother Liu still has a proud character that would rather break than bend. If it were Senior Brother Liu just now, he would never give in to me even if he knew that I was stronger than him! But you are a coward who bullies the weak and fears the strong!"
He roared and swung the long sword fiercely. The blade brought out a bright sword light, carrying a powerful force of true energy, and slashed hard on the long sword in Zhou Tong's hand.
