Chapter 71: Chapter 69 "Daoist Cushion"!Looking at Yan Chuan, Lu Qing felt a complex mix of emotions.
Eight years had passed.
He thought joining Guangling Academy and the New Faction had greatly improved his martial arts, imagining himself far ahead of his former senior brother and even catching up to his master, whom he once thought invincible.
But the battle in July felt like a bucket of cold water, awakening him.
It turned out that while he’d been making progress over these eight years, so had his senior brother.
Returning to the academy, Lu Qing trained even more diligently in martial arts and joined Tian Hu and others in exploring the Mountain and Sea Realm. They hunted down a ’Mammoth’, obtained beast blood, and his strength rapidly progressed.
As soon as he came back, he inquired about Yan Chuan, only to find that his senior brother had made a big name for himself —
Advanced Study Hall!
Fan Defang!
Master Cheng!
Strength, reputation, status, all soared!
He seemed not to lose to him at all.
But Lu Qing felt that his own progress was greater and, unwilling to rest, he still wanted to challenge Yan Chuan to a duel.
However, at this moment, when he saw the deep bond between the master and disciple on the other side, while his feelings here were bland and lacking, he felt a bit disheartened.
Nevertheless—
"Fight, I must!"
Lu Qing looked at Yan Chuan: "Let me see if there has been any improvement in your boxing skills since you became Master Cheng!"
He stepped forward.
Challenging Yan Chuan to a duel.
Yan Chuan laughed, "The current senior brother of the Iron Wire Martial Arts Hall isn’t me, it’s Jinpeng."
As he said this.
Yan Chuan turned to Yu Jinpeng: "You’ve known Lu Qing for three years. You were once unremarkable, familiar with him, but he most likely doesn’t remember you. Go up and spar with him to let him know you."
"Yes, Master!"
Yu Jinpeng strides into the field, cupping his fists towards Lu Qing: "Please teach me!"
"Senior brother!"
"This is too much!"
Lu Qing looked at Yu Jinpeng, feeling insulted.
You’re letting him fight me?
Is he even worthy?!
Yan Chuan paid no heed, only telling Yu Jinpeng: "Jinpeng, Lu Qing is best at the ’Black Tiger Fist’, so use the ’Tiger Form Boxing’ against him!"
With these words.
Someone moved.
Yu Jinpeng’s hands turned into tiger claws, his right hand supporting forward, his left hand on his chest, while his left foot stepped sideways and his right leg kneeled on the ground, forming a kneeling stance, eyes fixed on Lu Qing—
"Please!"
This was the opening stance of ’Tiger Form Boxing’ known as ’Young Tiger Awakening’!
"Then I’ll fight you first!"
Lu Qing moved like a fierce tiger, leaping over ridges with a frightening momentum, pouncing directly at Yu Jinpeng.
Yu Jinpeng, with a serious expression, was extremely cautious, focusing on dismantling rather than rashly attacking.
"Slanting body leaning against, bending and stretching forward and backward, twisting and rotating."
"Jinpeng."
"This person excels at using strength in the ’Black Tiger Fist’, including inch force, long force, sinking force, and collision force, all adeptly. You must be cautious."
Yu Jinpeng faced off against Lu Qing!
Cheng Family Boxing’s Tiger Form Boxing against Six Harmonies Boxing’s Black Tiger Fist!
From the start.
Yu Jinpeng was at a disadvantage.
Yan Chuan again opened his mouth, providing guidance from outside the field.
"Watching silently is real gentlemanly conduct!"
"Providing outside guidance, what kind of skill is that!"
On that side, Lv Jun loathed Yan Chuan, hating his incessant chattering, annoying and vexing!
Chattering like a little dog.
Yan Chuan paid no heed.
He followed his own way, determined to guide—
"Root from the foot, express from the chest, reach with the hand."
"Mind the step technique, don’t lose order, your ’Horse Stance’ foundation is solid, make use of it!"
"Drive the Qi with the mind, drive the strength with the Qi, vocalize to assist your force."
"Open your mouth, shout out loud!"
Yan Chuan spoke rapidly, constantly providing the latest guidance as the situation on the field changed.
Yu Jinpeng continued to challenge, quickly stabilizing his position.
Lu Qing, from initial underestimation, fought more seriously and increasingly alarmed.
Yan Chuan said he didn’t remember Yu Jinpeng, but in fact, he did.
Yu Jinpeng joined the martial hall eleven years ago, while Lu Qing left the martial hall eight years ago; they were together in the martial hall for three years. During those three years, they didn’t have much interaction, only noting that he was serious and hardworking in practicing martial arts and boxing.
It wasn’t until later.
As the Iron Wire Martial Arts Hall gradually declined, with apprentices leaving one after another, just leaving a few like Yu Jinpeng behind, Lu Qing kept a watchful eye and naturally had some understanding of Yu Jinpeng.
However, as far as he knew, Yu Jinpeng’s aptitude was foolish and weak.
In the Iron Wire Martial Arts Hall, he was purely a number, not even worthy of standing out.
Not to mention comparing with the re
Has roared it out!
...
"Is senior brother truly a fierce tiger?"
"Terrifying!"
Next to Yan Chuan, Che Qi and Wei Quan were startled by Yu Jinpeng’s fierce tiger roar, even though they weren’t facing him directly.
From outside the field, it was so.
Inside the field was even more remarkable.
"Huh?"
Lu Qing was first daunted by this tiger roar, then faced Yu Jinpeng’s ferocious successive attack—
Bounce, kick, stomp, top, bump, smash!
Charge, bounce, pause, grab, pluck, press!
Leg!
Elbow!
Hand!
Crackling!
Yu Jinpeng used a three-step jump for continuous strikes, advancing from left, center, right, with hands, legs, knees, and elbows together, advancing directly into the mid-section, aggressively pressing forward.
This was the ’Tiger Form Boxing·Thousand Character Strike’!
Fierce attack, quick advancement!
Turning the tide!
Yu Jinpeng already gained the upper hand.
But he wouldn’t let up—
Fierce Tiger Washing Claw, Tiger Cub Stretching, Crown Prince’s Tour, Grand Ancestor’s Beard Pulling, Arhat Dragging Force, Sun and Moon Linked Feet, Tiger Form Five Skill Fist!
All the subtleties of Tiger Form Boxing were here.
Brave and sharp, unstoppable!
"Take this!"
"Fall before me!"
The last move, Tiger Back Bear Waist Iron Mountain Lean, elbow-hit Lu Qing—
Boom!
He was knocked a yard away, falling to the ground, unable to rise.
This battle—
Yu Jinpeng!
Reversed the victory!
