Dahan: A 100-year-old veteran, I will build the strongest family

Chapter 20: Li Hongji takes the stage, causing a sensation in the audience (Please continue to read)

"Haha, Your Majesty, there is a saying that goes, "I am old, but I wonder if I can still eat." Today, even though I am a hundred years old, I want to prove myself that I can still dance with my halberd."

Li Hong laughed heartily and took the halberd from the hand of the family member who was panting as he walked over carrying the halberd.

Li Hong has practiced martial arts all his life and is proficient in swords, spears, swords and halberds. Now, having broken through to the realm of a peerless martial general and with Li Cunxiao's strong physique, Li Hong finally chose a heavy halberd as his weapon. The large-scale swing of the halberd can enhance his deterrence on the battlefield.

"This halberd is a new weapon I forged. I named it the 'Blood Battle Halberd'. It weighs 188 kilograms and is extremely sharp."

Li Hong took over the Blood Battle Halberd easily and waved it casually. The heavy Blood Battle Halberd moved, immediately causing the wind to whistle loudly.

"This... Li Hong is a hundred years old, how can he be so brave?"

Liu Hong and the civil and military officials around him were shocked to see Li Hong dancing the heavy halberd with ease and awe-inspiring momentum. They were so frightened that they pulled their beards and their faces hurt.

Jian Shuo, who was beside Liu Hong, was also shocked and quickly asked a group of guards to protect Liu Hong, Empress He and Concubine Wang.

"This halberd weighs 188 kilograms?" Empress He and Concubine Wang opened their sexy and alluring mouths slightly.

The two women were somewhat shocked that Li Hong was so powerful.

Although they did not practice martial arts, they also understood some common sense. Unless they were extremely powerful generals, their weapons seldom weighed more than 120 kilograms. After all, weapons were not for viewing but for use on the battlefield.

Weapons weighing hundreds of kilograms require a long period of fighting, several hours, or even a day or two is normal. Most people simply don't have that ability.

When everyone was shocked and had no time to say anything, they saw Li Hong already stepped onto the ring with the Blood Battle Halberd in his hand and the Dragon-Walking-Tiger Step.

"I am Li Hong, the head of the Li family. I still have some respect in front of His Majesty. Whoever can defeat me today, I will personally recommend to His Majesty to be a general. I wonder who is willing to fight with me!"

Li Hong stroked his gray beard and said with a smile as he looked at Zhang Fei, Pan Feng, Yue Lu, Zhang He, Gao Lan and others who were equally shocked and doubtful.

Hearing Li Hong say that whoever can defeat him will be recommended to the emperor as a general, Zhang Fei, Pan Feng, Yue Lu, Zhang He, Gao Lan and others came to their senses and their eyes suddenly lit up.

They all saw Li Hong and Liu Hong sitting together and having a very pleasant conversation just now.

Zhang Fei, Pan Feng, Yue Lu, Zhang He, Gao Lan and others were not familiar with Li Hong, but they did not have any genuine respect for him and were more moved by what Li Hong said.

After all, who among those who practice martial arts doesn’t want to be a general?

"General Li has guarded the border for the Han Dynasty for decades. Zhang He admires him very much. However, Zhang He heard that the old general is already 101 years old. He is really old. General Li should rest well. The Han Dynasty still has us young people."

Zhang He spoke first and said respectfully to Li Hong.

No matter whether they truly respect Li Hong or not, they cannot be rude in their words.

“Haha, this halberd weighs 188 kilograms. Are you sure that I am so powerless? Or are you afraid of me? If you are afraid of me, how can you protect me?”

Li Hong's provocative voice reached everyone's ears, and a young general with some baby fat on his face immediately stood up with a big axe in his hand.

"General Li, since you are so powerful, I, Xing Daorong of Lingling, am willing to challenge you!"

Xing Daorong looked at Li Hong and couldn't help grinning.

He had just been suppressed in the ring match, and now an old veteran had come out, which was obviously a good opportunity. Of course, Xing Daorong was not stupid. He paid special attention to the reaction of Liu Hong in the stands. Seeing that Liu Hong and the others did not say anything, but were all staring at the ring, he immediately understood that this was an opportunity, a good opportunity to make a name for himself.

As for the 188-jin halberd that Li Hong was holding, it was nothing in Xing Daorong's opinion.

Xing Daorong could lift a 500-jin boulder, so who couldn't do it while holding a halberd weighing more than 100 jin?

As for Li Hong being very powerful, Xing Daorong directly denied it. He is already a hundred-year-old man, how powerful can he be?
"Xing Daorong? Let's fight!" Li Hong looked at Xing Daorong, who was grinning as if he had gotten a great advantage, and smiled while holding the halberd in one hand and stroking his beard with the other.

"Remember, I am the future Lingling General Xing Daorong. Considering the old general's age, we will stop here."

"drink!"

While Xing Daorong was speaking loudly, he attacked Li Hong with an axe in his hand.

Of course, Xing Daorong still held back on his strength. However, as soon as Xing Daorong approached Li Hong, he left just as quickly as he came.

Li Hong held a heavy halberd in his hand and smashed it towards Xing Daorong at a high speed with a bang. The wind was whistling and a breath of death was blowing in his face. Xing Daorong was shocked and hurriedly blocked it with his axe.

A huge force threw Xing Daorong and the axe into the air. Under the shocked gaze of everyone, he drew a parabola and hit the ground hard under the ring. Xing Daorong immediately curled up and rolled over in pain.

"General Li is still so strong?!"

Seeing that Xing Daorong was knocked off the stage by Li Hong in one move, Liu Hong, Empress He, Concubine Wang and others were all surprised.

Zhang Fei, Pan Feng, Yue Lu, Zhang He, Gao Lan and others on the stage were even more shocked. After fighting with Xing Daorong, they understood that although Xing Daorong was not strong among them, he was only a second-rate general in the early stage.

But not everyone can knock it away in one move, right?
What’s more, he is a centenarian veteran.

"I, Wu Anguo, am here to fight with the old general!" With a loud shout, Wu Anguo stepped out, holding a weapon and killing Li Hong. This time, Wu Anguo did not dare to underestimate the enemy.

However, Wu Anguo still came quickly and flew just as fast.

"Ah~" accompanied by a shrill scream, Wu Anguo's weapon was knocked away by Li Hong, and he was hit on the back and fell off the stage.

"This..." At this moment, Zhang Fei, Pan Feng, Yue Lu, Zhang He, Gao Lan and others on the ring became nervous.

Liu Hong and a number of civil and military officials were all shocked.

Li Hong defeating Xing Daorong doesn't mean anything.

After all, when Li Hong was young, he was a veteran who had guarded the border for decades.

I can only say that Li Hong is really strong.

However, Wu Anguo was knocked away immediately afterwards, which made them suspicious.

"Who else is coming?" Li Hong stood still as a mountain, holding his halberd upright, stroking his beard with one hand, without moving a step.

"I am Zhang He, and I would like to challenge the old general!"

Zhang He, holding a fine iron spear, rushed towards Li Hong.

Li Hong's halberd shook, and it seemed as if it was covering Zhang He like a violent storm.

Zhang He was so frightened by the fierce power that his scalp went numb. He raised his gun frantically to block.

"Pom Pom~"

Huge forces came one after another like waves, cracking the tiger's mouth. Zhang He felt that he had lost feeling in his arm.

"Bang!" A sharp pain came, and Zhang He was hit by Li Hong's halberd. He was knocked away and fell on the stage vomiting blood.

wow~
Everyone in the audience was in an uproar. They were all shocked and stared with wide eyes at the centenarian general Li Hong on the stage, standing tall and steady, with gray hair and full of energy.

"How is this possible? Even when General Li was young, he wasn't that powerful, right?"

Liu Hong, Empress He, Yuan Feng, Yuan Shu, Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Zhang Fei, Li Wen, Li Wu and everyone else gasped and exclaimed.

Lady Wang looked at Li Hong in shock with her beautiful eyes blinking.

Li Hong's performance was truly jaw-dropping, and made people ask themselves, is he really a 100-year-old veteran?

However, Li Hong was still so brave at the age of 100, which really surprised Lady Wang.

At this moment, everyone was shocked.

Only Li Li, who was standing next to the ring, had a flushed face and was extremely excited. It was obvious that he had already known about Li Hong's powerful martial arts.
