Chapter 9: Crazy Knee Strike

All the live spectators stood up, live music played, and the national anthems of the four gladiator nations were played in turn, and after the national anthem was completed, the audience took their seats, and the fighters left the arena to prepare, and soon the fight would begin.

The order of the match has been determined before, first the matchup between Chen Sheng and Jankovic, followed by a period of rest, followed by a showdown between Nemov and Kidd, after the two fighters who entered the final are determined, after a period of rest and recovery of strength and spirit, the duel begins.

Since Chen Sheng is in the first game tonight, so as soon as the national anthem ceremony is over, Chen Sheng and the coaching staff quickly returned to the lounge for pre-game preparations.

It didn't take long for the staff to come in and inform them that they were ready to play.

Chen Sheng and the members of the coaching staff walked out of the lounge, walked through the passage to the entrance of the court, waited for the voice of the on-site host Houston's introduction, the curtain opened, and then played.

Here Chen Sheng hugged his girlfriend goodbye, his girlfriend hugged Chen Sheng's body tightly, and said in his ear, "Come on, I believe you can win, I love you"

Chen Sheng didn't speak, just hugged his girlfriend with both hands and nodded his head affirmatively.

Let go of your girlfriend and shake hands with everyone on your coaching staff, encouraging each other.

The girlfriend and Chen Sheng's team manager walked from the other side and went to the audience, leaving Chen Sheng and the coaching staff at the scene.

Just listen to Houston's high-pitched voice coming from inside the court:

"Ladies and gentlemen, let us welcome Mr. Chen Sheng, a gladiator 'Judge' from the People's Republic of China.

When the sound was heard, the curtain in front of me was pulled open to both sides, and the sounds and scenes in the stadium rushed over at once.

The lights shone directly at the entrance, Chen Sheng and the coaching staff walked into the stadium from the entrance under the instructions of the staff, and as soon as they entered, a pillar of light shone on Chen Sheng's body, and countless flashing lights began to flicker, making people almost unable to open their eyes.

After a few seconds of pause at the entrance, Chen Sheng and the coaching staff walked to the octagon in the center of the court.

On both sides of the passage were fanatical fighting fans, all cheering for Chen Sheng or cheering, the craziest of which was the Chinese fighting fans present, and all kinds of voices cheering for Chen Sheng kept ringing in their ears.

"Come on Chen Sheng, we love you"......

Some martial arts fans kept reaching out and trying to high-five Chen Sheng, but because Chen Sheng's hands were already wrapped in protective bandages, they didn't high-five, but they all smiled back, and more fanatical fighting fans tried to rush out to hug Chen Sheng, but they were all stopped by the bodyguards who followed on both sides.

Soon arrived in front of the octagon, opened the door of the octagon, Chen Sheng and the coaching staff entered the octagon, today Chen Sheng is the blue side, so go directly to the place of the blue team player to stand, waiting for Jankovic to enter.

After introducing Chen Sheng's on-site host Houston, this is the beginning of the introduction of Lithuanian Yankovic: "Ladies and gentlemen, let us welcome Mr. Yankovic, the 'polar bear' from Lithuania."

Amid the sound of music, the lights hit the entrance to the entrance, and Jankovic stepped out of it and walked towards the Octagon with his coaching staff.

Chen Sheng's position was right across from the entrance tunnel, and Chen Sheng, who was standing in the octagon, kept looking at Jankovic, his opponent, with calm and confident eyes.

Jankovic entered the octagonal cage and stood up, his eyes fixed on Chen Sheng, wild and aggressive.

Host Houston began to introduce the crowd to the crowd about today's bout after both fighters entered the Octagon Cage.

The three referees are located in three different areas outside the Octagon to make the most reasonable judgment from all angles.

Today's cage referee is the most famous referee in the UFC martial arts world, Hao Bo. Dean, who has competed in countless top-level tournaments, is the most authoritative judge in the martial arts world.

Immediately after that, Houston talked about some rules and precautions, and then it was the routine player inspection work of the referees and staff on the court.

After checking that nothing happened, the coaching staff of both fighters withdrew from the octagon, leaving the arena host, the on-court referee and the two fighters.

After his final opening remarks, Houston exited the Octagon and handed the cage to the remaining two protagonists and the referee.

The octagonists opened up again, and the girl in a glamorous bikini held high the sign of the first round into the cage, circled the court, exited the octagon, and the match began immediately.

Inside the cage, referee Dean called the two fighters to the center of the cage, repeated the rules to both fighters, and demanded that both sides must obey the referee on the court, and then motioned for each player to return to their corners.

A crisp bell sounded, referee Dean waved down, and the game began.

In the octagon, Chen Sheng began to take the initiative to attack, stepped forward quickly, and used his right hand to strike the first attack, a straight punch directly to the opponent's mid face.

Jankovic took a half-step back, easily dodging Chen's attack, and stepped back with a hook to attack Chen's side face from the side, which was blocked by Chen Sheng with his right arm.

Chen Sheng quickly fought back, and the whip leg of his left leg was pulled out fiercely, but Jankovic couldn't dodge it and was hit the outside of his thigh by this whip leg.

The sheer force caused Jankovic's body to dodge to the side, and Chen Sheng's blow worked, followed by a step-up attack, his fists quickly hitting Jankovic's head and torso, and his legs used whip legs and high kicks to attack Jankovic's head and torso from time to time.

Jankovic was on the back foot, retreating towards the periphery of the court under Chen's attack, trying to distance the two sides in the hope of gaining respite.

Chen Sheng controlled the situation, pressed Jankovic tightly, and did not give him a chance to get out of his control, and in the process of retreating, Jankovic's face was brought by a high-leg kick from Chen Sheng, and his nose began to bleed.

The martial arts fans on the sidelines have been completely ignited by the fierce battles in the arena, and they are all frantically cheering for the fighters they support.

The atmosphere inside the stadium has reached its peak, and the whole stadium smells of hormones and adrenaline.

Chen Sheng has forced Jankovic into a corner of the octagon, and Jankovic is completely at the bottom.

Chen Sheng constantly used his fists to attack Jankovic's head and torso, and he also used his elbows and knees to find opportunities to deliver heavier blows.

Outside the Octagon, Jankovic's coach loudly reminded his fighters to find an opportunity to get out of the zone.

Jankovic resisted stubbornly, constantly using grappling techniques when the distance was very close, hugging Chen Sheng's upper body and putting his head on Chen Sheng's neck, so that Chen Sheng could not let go of the attack.

Since Jankovic's height and weight are greater than Chen's, when he hugs Chen's body, Chen's attacks are often forced to stop, and Chen Sheng uses various methods to break away from Jankovic's grappling in order to regain his dominant attacking position.

The situation was a bit deadlocked, the clock was running out more than four minutes, and the first round was about to end.

On the court, Chen Sheng tried to get out of Jankovic's grappling, and seeing that Jankovic's head was still trying to get close to his torso, the defense revealed a gap, Chen Sheng immediately used his right elbow to quickly hit the left side of Jankovic's head.

Jankovic lowered his head, his vision was blocked, and he didn't see Chen Sheng's movements, and when he noticed that Chen Sheng was raised by his elbow, and other joint movements of his body, it was a little too late to protect his head.

Chen Sheng's right elbow hit Jankovic on the left side of his head, and with a "bang", Jankovic was instantly smashed off the defense by Chen Sheng's heavy blow, and his whole person was a little dizzy by this heavy blow, and his reaction became half a beat slower.

The opportunity could not be missed, Chen Sheng continued to wave his elbows, and attacked Jankovic's head continuously, and after a few consecutive blows, the attacks worked, and Jankovic was already a little staggered.

On the field, referee Dean closely monitored Jankovic's condition and was ready to intervene at any time to stop the game.

Chen's furious attack not only brought Jankovic to the ground, but also completely detonated the atmosphere in the stadium, and the fans stood up and shouted loudly to cheer on the fighters in the ring.

Jankovic has lost his defense under Chen Sheng's left and right elbows in succession, and the whole person has completely become the target of attack.

Referee Dean saw this situation and was ready to cut between the two players and stop the match.

After Chen Sheng scored an elbow blow, seeing that Jankovic's head had begun to hang down and gave up the lower defense, Chen Sheng used his right leg to swing backwards, and then quickly moved forward, and his right knee slammed into Jankovic's face with great speed.

Referee Dean had already rushed over, but it was too late.

Chen Sheng's right knee hit Jankovic's low face with unmistakable accuracy, and with a "bang", the violent force struck Jankovic's head upwards and fell back sharply.

Jankovic's whole body was completely stunned, and he fell to the side like a tree.

At this time, referee Dean had already rushed to the middle of the two, pounced on Jankovic's body to prevent Chen Sheng from continuing to attack, and waved his hands vigorously to signal the end of the game.

Chen stopped his attack and declared his victory with his hands raised inside the Octagon.

Referee Dean checked Jankovic's condition on the spot, and then urgently signaled for medical personnel outside the field to enter the field.

The door of the octagon cage was opened, and the medical staff and Jankovic's coaching staff quickly entered the field and stepped forward to check on Jankovic's condition, Jankovic had been completely unconscious by Chen Sheng's attack, and the stretcher prepared on the sidelines also entered the court, lifting Jankovic out of the octagon cage and sending him directly to the designated hospital.

The commentators in the comment booth have gone crazy too.

Joe. Logan: "God, this is the 'judge' Chen Sheng once again sent his opponent directly to the hospital, may God bless Jankovic and hope he is safe and sound."

I applaud Chen Sheng's wonderful martial arts, and I am also worried about Chen Sheng's opponent in the final, it seems that this man is invincible at the moment, and I don't know what kind of method another fighter who is about to stand on the final stage will use to deal with Chen Sheng, I hope he has a good way. The man in front of him is really a 'judge' who controls people's life and death. ”

CCTV host:

"Oh my God, that knee was crazy, and for a moment I thought Jankovic's head was going to blow off."

"Yes, Chen Sheng's two games were quick wins, and both of them hit the opponent hard, I was really surprised, I didn't expect him to be in such good shape and perform so well"

"Yes, seeing this match, I can't wait for the final to come, hoping that Chen Sheng can overthrow Nemov's dominance and create his own fighting dynasty."

Fans outside the ring have already started to celebrate wildly, regardless of race, color, poverty or wealth.

Everyone was overwhelmed by the excitement of the fights, hugging each other and high-fives in celebration. I'm glad I had the privilege of standing here and witnessing such a great game.

After Jankovic was carried out, referee Dean stood up, raised Chen Sheng's arm, and loudly announced that Chen Sheng won the game by "KO".
