Chapter 424: Shameless Ambush

"Song is truly worthy of being at the top of the Newcomer List, indeed formidable," Liu Yunsong said with a forced smile, reaching out to smooth his cuff.

Seeing this gesture, a sharp, cold light flashed in Xu Ming’s eyes as he said solemnly, "Liu Yunsong is preparing to make a sneaky move."

Ling Chen asked in surprise, "Second brother, how do you know he’s going to play dirty?"

"You’ll see soon."

As they were speaking, Liu Yunsong lightly tapped his toes and, with one fist and one palm, threw himself toward Song Ge.

"Take this!"

With a shout, Liu Yunsong shook his wrists, palms raised high like the crushing weight of Mount Tai, coming down toward the top of Song Ge’s head. At the same time, his left fist thrust forward, fierce and unstoppable.

Faced with Liu Yunsong’s dual attacks, Song Ge remained composed. The smile on his handsome face unchanged, his long arms moved swiftly like two nimble snakes, wrapping around Liu Yunsong’s fist and palm, completely neutralizing his power.

Once his power was dissipated, Liu Yunsong, seeing the tide turning against him, hastily withdrew. However, Song Ge showed no sign of stopping. Before Liu Yunsong could move, Song Ge instantly moved forward, hands raised and coiling around Liu Yunsong’s wrists, closing in.

Not good!

Seeing the approaching figure, Liu Yunsong’s pupils shrank and his face paled.

"Go!"

As Song Ge lightly exclaimed, his waist and shoulders coordinated in a powerful effort, hitting Liu Yunsong like a solid iron rod, sending him crashing heavily onto the arena platform.

Feeling the pain in his chest and back, Liu Yunsong gritted his teeth and sprang back up.

"Again!"

With a furious shout, Liu Yunsong charged forward, his palms glowing red with concentrated Inner Strength, eyes losing all reason in the roaring fury within.

On the spectator stand, Ling Chen shook his head silently. Getting consumed by rage was the biggest taboo in martial arts competition. Without clarity, one couldn’t make correct decisions and adapt, and the inevitable outcome was clear.

But what shocked Ling Chen the most was Song Ge. Liu Yunsong, after all a top eight contender on the Dragon List, posed no threat at all in front of Song Ge, showing a significant gap between their skills.

Meanwhile, Liu Yunsong had already closed in on Song Ge, his palms fiercely aiming for Song Ge’s chest.

Song Ge smiled lightly, his eyes vividly bright and fearless, as he raised his palms to meet the attack head-on.

However, just as their palms were about to meet, Song Ge seemed to notice something, his expression suddenly changed, and a cold light exploded in his eyes as he swiftly leaned back, bending into a bow shape.

This sudden change left the onlookers puzzled and bewildered, unaware of what had transpired.

However, this movement left Song Ge completely exposed, full of vulnerabilities.

Seizing this chance, Liu Yunsong, with a chilling smile, transformed his palms into fists, hammering down hard, knocking the bent-over Song Ge to the ground.

Feeling a sharp pain in his chest, Song Ge’s smile instantly vanished. Without a moment to think, he slapped his hands on the ground, sliding his body out from in front of Liu Yunsong, and quickly got back to his feet.

"Song’s skills are good, but he still lacks experience," Liu Yunsong sneered.

Hearing this, Song Ge, who had been expressionless, suddenly smiled slightly, meaningfully saying, "Mr. Liu, you are no doubt a Dragon List expert, but was this really worth it?"

"You…"

Liu Yunsong was about to respond, but Song Ge didn’t give him the chance to speak.

With a swift movement, Song Ge quickly approached Liu Yunsong, throwing punches with both fists like an overwhelming force of thousands of troops, unstoppable by anyone.

Seeing the cold gleam in Song Ge’s eyes, for some reason, Liu Yunsong felt a strong sense of unease rising in his heart. He involuntarily stepped back and hastily yelled, "Stop! I acknowl—"

Before he could finish shouting "admit defeat," Song Ge’s feet forcefully propelled him forward, and his fist slammed harshly into Liu Yunsong’s body.

Crack!

A crisp sound of bones breaking immediately spread from the stage.

"Stop!"

Sitting in the seats of the Dangyang Sect, Zhu Jin’s expression turned cold, and he shouted loudly, soaring up from his seat like a great roc flying, rushing directly towards the stage to grab Song Ge.

However, before his hand could reach Song Ge, it was blocked by an old man, the host and referee of this match, Zhou Qi.

"Zhou Qi, what are you doing?" Zhu Jin shouted coldly.

Zhou Qi calmly said, "Master Zhu, the match isn’t over yet. By intervening now, aren’t you breaking the rules?"

"Nonsense, my Junior Brother clearly admitted defeat."

"I didn’t hear him say the words ’admit defeat’."

"You…"

Before Zhu Jin could finish his sentence, a pitiful scream suddenly came from behind Zhou Qi. Following that, with a bang, Liu Yunsong’s body collapsed on the stage, both his arms bent unnaturally, clearly broken by Song Ge.

Seeing this scene, the people present gasped in shock, not expecting Song Ge to be so ruthless and directly cripple Liu Yunsong’s two arms. An esteemed fighter from the Dragon List had instantly turned into a disabled person.

Was he not afraid of making an enemy of the Dangyang Sect?

"Junior Brother!"

Seeing the terrible state of Liu Yunsong, Zhu Jin’s eyes filled with bloodshot rage, and glaring coldly at Song Ge, he gritted his teeth and said, "Song Ge, you are being too presumptuous!"

Song Ge paid no heed to Zhu Jin’s rage and indifferently said, "He brought this upon himself. Master Zhu, you should know very well what your Junior Brother did just now."

"I only know that you’ve disabled my Junior Brother’s two arms, turning him into a disabled person. I know nothing else about the matter." After speaking, Zhu Jin turned to Zhou Qi and said sternly, "You are more aware of the rules of Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion than I am. This is a martial arts competition, not a personal feud. Song Ge clearly intended harm. According to the rules of Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion, such a ruthless and unprincipled person does not deserve to participate in the Heavenly Mechanism Great Ceremony. He must be expelled immediately. As the host of this ceremony, I want to see how your Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion will uphold justice."

Hearing this, Zhou Qi looked somewhat troubled as he glanced at Song Ge. He also hadn’t expected Song Ge to be so heavy-handed as to cripple Liu Yunsong.

According to the rules of the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion, martial arts competitions should stop at the point of contact, and deliberate harm is not permitted, but Song Ge’s actions had already broken these rules.

"Song Ge, do you have anything to say?" Zhou Qi thought for a moment, then gave Song Ge the opportunity to defend himself.

"Elder Zhou, I did not break the rules. He was the one who first breached the rules by using a hidden weapon to attack me. My response was merely appropriate retaliation. That shouldn’t be a problem, right?"

"Nonsense!" Zhu Jin scolded angrily, "Which eye of yours saw my Junior Brother attacking you? Song, don’t slander my Junior Brother with your wild accusations."
