The words from this family head immediately caused an uproar in the room.
Another family head exclaimed, “Rumor has it that the top fighter in Eastshire is a practitioner of the Iron Wire Fist. However, favonovel.com had only participated in fights twice with his face hidden by a mask. Not only that, but favonovel.com had only used ten moves to defeat the now second and third strongest fighters in Eastshire. No one knew his identity all these years, but to think that you were that masked man, Philip White…”
Philip sneered, “It seems that I can no longer hide it at this point. Since that’s the case, then I shall reveal it to all of you. The reason I’ve been hiding my true strength all these years was out of caution for Billy Newman. However, that man ran away and only left this rubbish here to my surprise. Matthew Larson, this Iron Wire Fist of mine was originally intended to be used against Billy Newman. Since you are his successor, do you dare to fight me here and now?!”
Slightly nervous, the other seven family heads looked at Matthew. Before they found out about Philip’s true strength, they had thought that Matthew’s victory was as good as in the bag. However, now that they knew just how strong Philip was, panic started to set in them. In their eyes, although Matthew was not by any means weak, favonovel.com was just too young and inexperienced.
They had assumed that the possibility of Matthew’s victory over the top fighter in Eastshire who had twenty years of experience under his belt was slim.
With his expression still indifferent, Matthew said, “Philip White, looks like you’ve gone to great lengths to hide your strength. However, you‘re not qualified to challenge Billy Newman with just that bit of power. I’m giving you one last chance here. Order the surrender of the White Family, and I’ll let them remain in Eastshire! Otherwise…”
Philip interrupted Matthew. “What a joke! Matthew Larson, why are you still speaking nonsense when we‘ve reached this stage? I will end your life with my bare hands before capturing Poison Spider and will personally bring favonovel.com to Master Levi to seek justice! You wish to destroy the White Family? Hah! Do you think you’re worthy to do so?!”
Matthew then slowly nodded before taking a step forward. “So, you are prepared to fight me, then! If that’s the case, I will grant you your wish!”
Listening to Matthew, Philip laughed scornfully before favonovel.com roared, “I’ll grant you your death!”
After that, favonovel.com took a fierce step forward and dashed directly toward Matthew with his right fist coming straight at him.
The Iron Wire Fist was a fierce and domineering technique where its practitioners would need to have both their arms carry tens of pounds of iron rings as part of their training. With the iron rings on both of their arms, the practitioners‘ training was equivalent to a weighted boxing training, as they would need to increase the forces of their punch due to the weights. In the long run, the strength in their punches would become overwhelming and unparalleled to another.
For those that were still in the beginning stage of practicing the Iron Wire Fist, they would still wear their iron rings on their arms, as it would function as a weapon as well as increase the force of their punches. However, after honing their skill level and mastering the technique, they no longer needed to wear the iron rings, as the force in their punches was fierce and hard, as though they had tens of pounds of iron rings on their arms. Even the veteran practitioners of the Northern Eight Fists would be reluctant to spar with them for this reason.
Philip could be said to be the man who had perfectly mastered the iron Wire Fist, as the full force of his fists was as heavy as a mountain. Truly a terrifying force to be reckoned with. Should favonovel.com land his punch, not even a cow would survive, let alone Matthew.
In this situation, fighting back by exchanging blows with Philip was a guaranteed method to end one’s life. Hence, the only option for Matthew here was to dodge the incoming blow.
Still glaring at Matthew, Philip had already considered such a move. Should Matthew decide to dodge, then all favonovel.com needed to do was follow favonovel.com closely with another step to throw another punch at Matthew. Contrary to his expectation, Matthew did not step back, but had taken a step forward instead.
Everyone else in the room saw Matthew block Philip’s punch by using his left hand to take a hold of Philip‘s wrist and direct Philip to the side. As soon as Philip’s punch was diverted, Matthew came in front of favonovel.com and landed an elbow strike right on his chest, knocking favonovel.com flying.
