The fight lasted only three seconds.

The martial arts master ranked 91st on the list of top swordsmen was instantly killed with just one move.

If this were told to others, probably no one would believe it.

After a brief moment of astonishment and shock, the crowd in the small square finally erupted in cheers.

Exclamations of "Holy crap! Holy crap!" echoed continuously.

The gazes directed at Lin Dong were filled with shock, admiration, and even affection.

Among those whose eyes sparkled, almost all were women, though of course, there were inevitably a couple of men...

Yu Ziyun finally felt relieved.

But for some reason, her heart beats very fast every time she looks at Lin Dong.

This man is so powerful!

Lin Dong did not go forward to check on Lu Changkong's condition; he was still very confident in his ability to make a move.

That punch broke at least two of his ribs.

Lu Changkong, lying on his back on the ground, twitched in pain. The intense pain in his right chest reminded him that he was seriously injured.

Two ribs on the right side were broken, and the chest and lungs suffered severe blows, resulting in serious internal injuries.

He didn't care about the physical pain, but the sudden and devastating defeat was hard for him to accept.

Lost just like that? I, Lu Changkong, was once the pride of heaven, the youngest number one expert in Southern Capital!

Why was this battle lost so quickly? Was it because I underestimated my opponent? Or was Lin Dong simply terrifyingly strong?

A jumble of emotions overwhelmed Lu Changkong.

"puff!"

A mouthful of bright red blood spurted out, soaking Lu Changkong's black Zhongshan suit.

Under the dim streetlights, dark red specks of light splashed onto the ground.

At this moment, two burly men strode out from the noisy crowd and quickly helped Lu Changkong up from the ground.

Two black Mercedes-Benz W14s were parked on the side of the road in the small square. The door of the last car was pushed open, and a middle-aged man in a gray Tang suit climbed out of the car.

"Master An!"

Two burly men respectfully greeted the man in the Tang suit, then helped the injured Lu Changkong into the first car.

The man in the Tang suit nodded, indicating that they should go to the hospital first, and then it would be his turn to take the stage.

"Uncle An, what brings you here too?"

Yu Ziyun asked in surprise as the man in the Tang suit approached.

"Ziyun, the night is so beautiful tonight, wouldn't it be a shame if I didn't come and join in the fun? Haha..."

The man in the Tang suit laughed loudly and looked Lin Dong up and down:

"Not bad. At such a young age, you already have the strength to defeat a master at the initial stage of the Transformation Realm. Your future is limitless."

"Who are you?"

Lin Dong asked in surprise.

"Let me introduce myself. My name is Guo Shi'an, and I am also Ziyun's business partner."

"Guo Shi'an?"

"The right and wrong are the shore on the shore."

"Oh, may I ask what advice Mr. Guo may offer?"

Guo Shi'an glanced casually at Yu Ziyun beside Lin Dong and said with a smile:

"I dare not presume to offer guidance. I wonder if Lu Changkong mentioned this to Mr. Lin before this battle? I have three things to discuss with you tonight. The first is to challenge you to a duel, which you have won."

"What, you guys are playing a three-stage game now? Tell me, what's the second stage? Is there a reward? If there isn't, I'm going back to sleep."

Lin Dong said irritably, "It's so late at night, we've been fighting and going through challenges, what's the point of not getting a reward? Am I working for nothing?"

"This second challenge really does have a reward, and the prize money is quite substantial. Mr. Lin, would you dare to come and experience it with me?"

"It's not a fight, is it?"

"No, you can make money just by sitting down, haha."

"If it's so easy, then I'd like to see for myself."

"Mr. Lin, please get in the car. Ziyun, you can come along too."

The black Mercedes-Benz headed east along the main street and quickly disappeared into the dark night.

The crowd in the small square gathered in small groups, discussing the brief fight that had just taken place—it was truly astounding.

Everyone realized that when the sun rose tomorrow, the landscape of martial arts masters in Nandu would undergo a dramatic change.

A rising star will soon be fully visible to all underground forces.

...

At the foot of Shiyun Mountain, on the shore of Bailu Lake.

The lights of the lakeside villas remained bright and dazzling, their reflections shimmering on the dark lake surface like countless stars gently rippling in the chilly night breeze.

"President, I just received a call from Guo Shi'an. Lu Changkong has lost."

With his head full of white hair, Guan Bo helplessly put down the microphone in his hand.

"What? So fast? Has Guo Shi'an recounted the details of the battle?"

Lu Jingye was stunned for a moment, then pressed for more information.

"Yes, in this battle, Lin Dong only used one move."

Guan Bo sighed and said dejectedly.

"One move? How is that possible?"

Mo Huan suddenly stood up and asked in a trembling voice:

"Is Chang Kong injured?"

"Old Guo said that Chang Kong broke at least two ribs and may have suffered serious internal injuries. Don't worry, Old Guo has already sent someone to take him to the hospital."

The three old men fell silent, and the atmosphere became somewhat oppressive.

They were well aware of the terrifying strength of Lu Changkong.

But what was unexpected was that the former top underworld figure in Nandu was defeated so quickly and so thoroughly.

"Do you think Lin Dong can pass this second test?"

After a long silence, Lu Jingye broke the silence and asked in a deep voice.

Guan Bo and Mo Huan exchanged a glance, both seeing a hint of uncertainty and hesitation in each other's eyes.
