Colin behaved exactly how Jude had behaved. They were both high-grade Spiritual Emperors with high
social status so it was no wonder they acted so arrogant and contemptuous towards anyone weaker
than them.
As soon as those words came out of Colin's mouth, the corners of Rocky's lips curled up slightly. The
latter suddenly rushed out and appeared next to the former in the blink of an eye. Colin was surprised
that Rocky had the initiative to attack him. Logically speaking, the weaker man usually wouldn't face his
stronger adversary head-on unless he wanted to doom himself.
However, Colin had second thoughts once his opponent presented himself. He decided to show him no
mercy.
"Eat my fists!" The moment Rocky approached, Colin's fists shook and several waves of invisible
energy were released from them.
In a single moment, the rampant energy exploded in front of Rocky and instantly engulfed him.
However, he appeared to put in no effort to defend himself at all. It was as if he was too helpless to
protect himself.
Colin sneered upon seeing Rocky, who was nothing more than a loser in his eyes. It was baffling to
think that Jude would lose to this guy!
The spectators shook their heads as well. They all shared the same thoughts—that Rocky grew to be
too arrogant after winning his battle against Jude due to sheer luck. As they witnessed him look down
on Colin, they knew he was being ridiculous and overestimating himself!
Just as everyone was sure Rocky would lose, the unexpected thing happened. Before Colin could
summon all his strength, he suddenly could no longer move. He felt as if his wrists were bound
together by some strange, invisible force.
"What's... What's going on?" Colin blurted out in disbelief. He began to panic as he couldn't figure out
why he still couldn't move his hands freely.
Almost at the same time, the spiritual power that surrounded Rocky was suddenly pushed away by a
strong wind. Rocky walked out leisurely and looked at Colin with a sinister smile on his face.
The onlookers were stunned once they took a closer look and discovered that Rocky survived Colin's
attack in one piece, safe and sound.
"You can't move your hands now, right? I never thought a high-grade Spiritual Emperor like you would
commit such a stupid mistake. This proved you really are dumb," the now confident Rocky sneered.
"What... What did you do to me?" Colin shouted furiously. It wasn't until that moment when he realized
Rocky was behind all of this.
"Well, I didn't really do anything. I simply used a few needles once you attacked me," Rocky revealed. It
turned out that the only reason Rocky intentionally appeared beside Colin earlier was to get him within
a close enough distance to take advantage of his arrogance. He shot black needles that
inconspicuously pierced his wrists. Rocky knew he would be proud of turning Colin, an expert in fist
strikes, immobile in his wrists.
"Shame on you! How dare you use dirty tricks on me in the middle of a battle?" Colin cursed, his face
contorted in shame and fury.
"Haha! If only you weren't so egotistical and took me seriously then you could've avoided all of this.
Your arrogance has brought you here," Rocky retorted immediately.
Colin's rough face immediately turned gloomy after he heard those words from Rocky.
The onlookers present now began to whisper among each other. Although Rocky's method was indeed
questionable, what he just revealed did make perfect sense. If it wasn't for Colin's arrogance which
made him look down on his opponent, he wouldn't have fallen into such a basic trap in the first place.
This led everyone to conclude that Colin was too careless!
"This battle ends now. I won't complicate this even further. How about we agree on a draw?" Rocky
kindly offered.
The audience looked at each other, puzzled. They were clueless as to why he would make such a
proposal. If he went all out during the next few moments in the battle, he would surely defeat Colin
since Colin was no longer able to use his fist strike. They couldn't tell what was going through the
young man's mind.
However, Colin's strength was far from weak. As soon as his fists were able to move again, Rocky
wouldn't be able to take advantage of him anymore. This was why Rocky thought it was the most
reasonable choice to reach a truce with Colin.
But through Colin's eyes, accepting Rocky's proposal would greatly humiliate him and he would never
agree to it. He immediately summoned his spiritual power once more and directed it into his fists so he
could attack with his special move again.
Realizing that Colin was unwilling to give in, Rocky could do nothing more than helplessly shake his
head. Rocky moved his fingers slightly to make a move, and suddenly, Colin's left wrist twisted upward.
He let out a piercing scream as the joints connecting his left hand to his wrist were painfully dislocated.
Colin broke out in a cold sweat as a result of the unbearable agony. Once again, he was caught off
guard by how Rocky was able to get through his attacks and dislocate his wrist so easily.
The crowd was flabbergasted and kept wondering how he even managed to pull off such an attack so
effortlessly!
"Why don't you think about my proposal again?" Standing still, Rocky appeared to have no intention of
beating up his opponent any further.
"You brat! Even though I lose one hand, I'd still be able to tear you into pieces!" Colin was very irritated
now. How could he bear losing to a nobody?
The next moment, he suddenly turned into a swift shadow that rushed at Rocky ferociously.
"I've always admired people with integrity, which is why I choose to be less cruel to them. You, on the
other hand, won't get to enjoy any mercy since you don't wish to call our battle off as a tie," Rocky
uttered coldly before walking towards his opponent fearlessly.
The crowd witnessed both fighters exchange strikes as their shadows moved at lightning speed.
Not long after, a few more screams echoed from the battlefield. Suddenly, the onlookers noticed that
Colin was now lying on the ground, crawling like a weak and disabled person.
Everyone was completely dumbfounded by the sight. First, Rocky defeated Jude with a single move
and now he managed to destroy both of Colin's hands and feet. The tension was so palpable that you
could almost feel the boiling and pounding of blood coursing through the veins of those who fixed their
eyes on Rocky.
But no matter how blind they were, they could tell that Rocky's strength was far stronger than what he
had just displayed.
As to how powerful he actually was, no one actually knew it.
Rocky's result for the second battle was decided.
If the rest of the audience thought that he only won the first battle out of pure luck, there was no
doubting that no luck was involved in his win during this second battle.
After all, it was impossible for Colin to lose considering his strength. But now, he had lost all of it and
could no longer fight back against Rocky at all.
After two battles, Rocky, who had defeated two high-grade Spiritual Emperors in a row, had now
emerged as a dark horse—a nightmare for the other contestants who had yet to face him in battle.
