Reveal the essence of Baji.
"Eight Extremes Break!"
Jin Yutang glanced at his senior brother, then at his master. His eyes widened in surprise, a wave of joy surged through his mind, indescribably ecstatic: "So that’s how it is!"
Eight Extremes Break!
Jin Yutang also understood, the secret method broke the limit, his Qi-Blood surged.
"Tai Chi Boxing, Fishing Toad Strength!"
"Baji Fist, Eight Extremes Break!"
"Five Fists and Five Skills!"
"Can it really break the limit?"
Watching on the side, Zhong Hui was both surprised and delighted, yet envious. She hadn’t expected that Yu Jinpeng and Jin Yutang would both comprehend the secret method and break the limit of Qi and Blood at this moment.
The secret method breaking the limit is supreme!
Zhong Hui was naturally envious!
It wasn’t just Yu Jinpeng!
It wasn’t just Jin Yutang!
Su Ye was focused. He glanced at Yu Jinpeng, at Jin Yutang, and then at Yan Chuan, suddenly smiling, revealing his buckteeth—
"Move like the wind, stand like a nail, the stepping technique smoothly transitions. The waist as the banner, Qi as the flag, eyes viewing six directions, hands and feet advance first."
"Move like the dragon, sit like the tiger, move like rivers and calm like mountains. Yin Yang Hand, up and down flip, shoulder and elbow sinking, Qi returns to the dantian."
Su Ye suddenly moved.
A dragon’s roar arose.
"Embrace the Six Harmonies, do not scatter, Qi spreads naturally throughout the body. Step and shift, carefully rotate, advance and retreat, transition at the waist."
"Foot strikes seven, hand strikes three, hands and feet advance together without delay. The hips drive, shoulders strike, squeeze and lean with the knee subtly at the top."
Zhong Hui turned her head, feeling her whole body tingle: "Eight Diagram Palm, Dragon Roar Skill!"
"Do not strike high, do not block low, face the wind and advance is the priority. A few words of exquisite techniques in the palm, without pure skill it’s all in vain."
Half-step Bone Training, Su Ye breaks the limit!
"Five Fists and Five Skills!"
"Secret Method Breaking Limit!"
On the stage, besides Yan Chuan and Liu Qifeng who were in a fierce fight, besides Yu Jinpeng breaking through, Jin Yutang, and Su Ye, besides the stunned Zhong Hui, Liu Qifeng’s team also had four limit-breaking masters.
Yan Chuan and Liu Qifeng’s match couldn’t be influenced by them, originally all hopes were pinned on Liu Qifeng, not even expecting Liu Qifeng to fight off Yan Chuan, or hoping they could advance to the semi-finals.
"What a good opportunity!"
Bai Gengyun’s face was full of joy: "Yu Jinpeng and Jin Yutang are both Yan Chuan’s disciples, Yan Chuan honing the two didn’t even look highly upon sudden enlightenment breaking the limit, now that the two have broken the limit with a secret method, they will definitely take it seriously. If we go over now to disrupt, we will surely affect Yan Chuan, giving Liu Qifeng a chance."
Bad people breaking limits!
Blocking others’ path!
This is indeed despicable.
"In the top four of the competition, the difference between one rank and another is like day and night. The silver, secret medicine, surprise weapons, the total value has at least a difference of twenty to thirty thousand taels."
"Either third or fourth."
"Or, take a risk, at least second place!"
Bai Gengyun was extremely persuasive.
The remaining three, Jia Shang frowned: "Comprehending the secret method is not easy, it’s crucial for a martial artist’s future, isn’t this inappropriate?"
Fan Yunji also had concerns: "Yan Chuan has endless potential, if he holds a grudge and retaliates after, we all have to go to Cang Mountain for the Sword Discussion, if he makes a move halfway, can we defend ourselves?"
"Cang Mountain Sword Discussion?"
"Ha! You guys still don’t know! A few days ago, I met Wang Zhengyi, who came to find Liu Qifeng, the two discussed reorganizing the team after the Jian Province Competition, they want to join forces, we are all burdens and will be discarded. Ask yourself, without Liu Qifeng, even if you go to Cang Mountain for the Sword Discussion, how many rounds can you get through?"
Bai Gengyun sneered: "Instead of thinking about the illusive Cang Mountain Sword Discussion, it’s better to fight for it this time, earn more prize money and rewards, what’s in hand is the most real!"
"Reorganize the team?"
Fan Yunji looked at Bai Gengyun.
Bai Gengyun pointed at Jia Shang, "Senior Brother Jia and I heard it together, if you don’t believe me, ask."
Fan Yunji no longer hesitated: "If that’s the case, then let’s do it!"
As for offending Yan Chuan?
At worst, don’t go to Cang Mountain for the Sword Discussion, after grabbing the prize money this time, directly head into the Mountain and Sea Realm, can Yan Chuan chase into the Mountain and Sea Realm for revenge?
And another, Xia Wuyi.
The three quickly reached a consensus, with only Jia Shang unmoved, they ignored Jia Shang, and the three acted together, heading straight towards where Yu Jinpeng and the others were.
"Breaking the limit?"
"On the stage, without asking if your opponent agrees first?"
The three acted together.
Murderous intent boiled!
"These youngsters have no virtue in martial arts!"
In the stands, Du Zhenzong saw this scene, so furious that he couldn’t hold back and pointed at Zhao Xi, the person in charge at Liyang Academy, saying: "Is this how Liyang Academy teaches its disciples?"
"Elder Du lost his composure."
"On the stage, winning or losing comes first, life or death can be spared, but can winning or losing show mercy?"
Zhao Xi was exceedingly calm.
Actually, he wanted to say more, that if we talk about having no virtues in martial arts, who can compare to Yan Chuan, who comments ’critically on the contestants’, ’points at the opponents’, and even fights fake matches for his sweetheart?
Yan Chuan is number one!
Just, Yan Chuan has Jiang Bianliu backing him, and Ni Mengtong gives him some regard, others can’t comment, and neither can Zhao Xi attack.
But, they didn’t criticize Yan Chuan, yet Du Zhenzong was the first to blame Liyang Academy.
Du Zhenzong was choked with anger.
Gu Shengyan interjected: "For Martial Arts Practitioners, opportunities are hard to come by, and enlightenment is rare. Ultimately, the competition is about selecting talent for the country, the actions of these three Liyang Academy disciples were indeed inappropriate."
"To achieve victory by any means, it inevitably falls into the inferior, though victorious, it is disgrace, disgrace to associate with such!"
"The desire to win is too strong, the fear of gains and losses is too heavy. For Martial Arts Practitioners, skill ranks second, while virtue ranks first."
"Elder Zhao, the virtue construction of Liyang Academy needs a more rigorous approach!"
In the stands, all were pointing fingers at Zhao Xi, condemning the actions of Liyang Academy’s disciples.
Zhao Xi silently clenched his fists, knowing the reason. These people weren’t deliberately targeting Liyang Academy, weren’t deliberately targeting him, they just coincidentally found an opportunity to flatter Yan Chuan, whether for their children to apprentice and learn or for their friendship, saying a few words was a cost-free benefit.
Really think they’re righteous?
A bunch of opportunists!
"I intentionally avoided mentioning Yan Chuan, yet I’m still being attacked!" Zhao Xi looked at those three who acted on stage and shook his head silently.
For these three, no matter if this blockage succeeds or fails, no matter if Yan Chuan holds a grudge, even if to quell these opportunists who flatter Yan Chuan, Zhao Xi would have to consider holding them accountable afterward, with severe punishment.
"If we win this, at least second in the competition!"
"Let’s win first, then talk!"
Zhao Xi said nothing.
Yan Chuan was sparring with Liu Qifeng, immersed in teaching boxing, suddenly saw Yu Jinpeng and the others comprehending the secret method about to break the limit, not having time to be happy, he noticed three people rushing over intending to sabotage.
Yan Chuan didn’t say a word—
Inner Strength infused, he kicked out three shards of stone, swift as arrows, aiming directly at the faces of Bai Gengyun and the two others.
Yan Chuan’s Inner Strength was vigorous!
This kick was powerful and forceful.
The stone shards had quite a notable power.
But those three were limit-breakers, plus they were limit-breaking disciples from the first academy of the Nine Counties of Jian Province, with solid foundations, trying to resolve them with just three stones wasn’t that easy.
Swoosh swoosh swoosh!
They either dodged or avoided, easily evading, continuing to rush towards Yu Jinpeng and the others.
Yan Chuan naturally couldn’t sit idle, his hands pushed forward, intending to push Liu Qifeng away, so he could defend, but found the push hit empty air, Liu Qifeng actually took half a step back, no longer engaging.
Although Yan Chuan was confident in getting rid of Liu Qifeng, Liu Qifeng’s action increased his favorability greatly.
Yan Chuan stepped several times, moving laterally in the air, blocking in front of Bai Gengyun and the others in an instant.
Bai Gengyun looked at Yan Chuan blocking before him, then at Liu Qifeng standing aside, in his anger he felt like vomiting blood: "Liu Qifeng!!!"
Liu Qifeng actually didn’t seize it, actually withdrew!
Bai Gengyun’s mind raced, pondering countermeasures while preparing to guard against Yan Chuan.
Yan Chuan’s punches and kicks were like lightning, leaving no room to parry or dismantle. Bai Gengyun felt his throat sweeten, his heart ache, momentarily dazed, and when he came to, he was already in the air, his whole body wracked with unbearable pain.
Out of the corner of his eye, he saw—
Fan Yunji and Xia Wuyi were also struck and sent flying by Yan Chuan, their chests caved in, even if they were limit-breakers, such injuries, even if not fatal, would leave them crippled!
Bai Gengyun was shocked and furious, his vision went black, fainting before he hit the ground.
With him shared the same fate were Fan Yunji and Xia Wuyi.
Yan Chuan easily dispatched three limit-breakers!
Defeat the limit-breakers, as if slaughtering dogs!
