"What a Tu Tiannan! Truly a standout figure at Guangling Academy! The unsolvable Shadowless Kick has finally been broken!"
"At best, it was just received!"
Many spectators below the stage felt disappointed when Yan Chuan’s ’Shadowless Kick’ did not send the opponent flying as usual. Even though Tu Tiannan was kicked back, and even though Tu Tiannan’s ’Yin Yang In and Out Continuous Hand’ was clearly inferior to Yan Chuan’s ’Shadowless Kick’, and even though the ’Shadowless Kick’ still held the advantage and won, it was still hard to satisfy the audience’s high expectations since it was not a decisive victory.
In recent days, in their minds, the ’Shadowless Kick’ was supposed to sweep everything.
Now, any slight dissatisfaction immediately caused some to stop supporting, even "backtrack".
Han Yerou, holding her sword, saw clearly: "Tu Tiannan’s boxing continued forward, making breakthroughs during the fight, but compared to Yan Chuan, Tu Tiannan was still lacking in boxing skills. If not for relying on deep inner strength for resistance, that kick would have sent him flying long ago!"
First the fist, then the leg, next grappling, combining weapons with inner family martial arts!
Tu Tiannan was defeated in boxing, legs, and grappling and ultimately had to prematurely resort to inner family skills, using inner strength, yet he was still kicked back several steps.
Tu Tiannan was thoroughly defeated!
"Relying on the inner strength gained there to block the ’Shadowless Kick’, what skill is that?"
Han Yerou was also a loyal fan of Yan Chuan’s ’Shadowless Kick’, and seeing Tu Tiannan break the myth of the ’Shadowless Kick - kicking people into flight’ in what she considered a ’shameful’ manner, she felt quite displeased.
She had a strong sense of participation!
"First the fist, then the leg, next grappling."
"After the fist, foot, and grappling, comes weapons!"
"How skilled is Yan Chuan with weapons?"
"Tu Tiannan is known as ’Golden Feather Cross Spear’, his spear technique must be exquisite, in terms of weapons, in terms of spear skill, can Yan Chuan win?"
What was broken earlier was just the myth of the ’Shadowless Kick’, anyone with discernment could see that in boxing, Yan Chuan still firmly surpassed Tu Tiannan.
But up next, there were still weapons!
If he couldn’t compete, it would be the downfall of the myth of ’Yan Chuan’!
Cannot afford the slightest defeat! Cannot have the slightest weakness!
If defeated in weapons!
If defeated in spear skill!
That’s still a defeat!
"He cannot be defeated!"
"He will not be defeated!"
Han Yerou and Shen Mei almost voiced simultaneously——
One is an expectation!
Han Yerou turned to look at Shen Mei: "You believe in him that much?"
"He never fights a battle he’s not confident in winning."
Shen Mei smiled, though she was worried inside, she did not express it.
Tu Tiannan had lost three matches in a row, but he could not retreat; on the grandmaster path, there is only advancement and no retreat.
Moreover, compared to fist and foot grappling, weapons are the true avenue to determine victory or defeat, to see life and death.
"Master Yan, knife, spear, sword, halberd, axe, ladle, hook, and fork, which do we start with?" Tu Tiannan looked at Yan Chuan.
Yan Chuan showed no signs of fear.
Tu Tiannan specialized in spear skill, and so did he. Beyond spear technique, whether it was a knife, sword, hook, or fork, with his boxing proficiency, he could handle them all with flair.
The extension of fist and foot!
Yan Chuan mastered fist and foot to the point of refining fire, whatever weapon he held, the baseline was there, it wouldn’t be too inferior.
"Then let’s start with knives."
Tu Tiannan didn’t bring a knife, he looked toward the audience below and loudly asked: "Which hero here is willing to lend me a knife?"
As soon as he spoke, someone immediately tossed a knife onto the stage——
The stage was instantly showered with knives.
"Master Yan, please!"
Tu Tiannan reached for a Nine-Ring Saber and swung it!
Yan Chuan, quick-eyed and quick-footed, also picked up a Nine-Ring Saber with a flick of his foot.
The nine rings clattered as he raised his knife to meet the charge!
Sweep, chop, parry, slice, skim, dodge, slash, thrust!
These are the eight techniques of the knife!
The same basic knife skills, wielded by different people, yield different levels of mastery.
Yan Chuan flexibly used the eight basic knife techniques, combining them at will, he had no fixed moves, every strike based on ’Cheng Family Boxing’, guided by ’Six Harmonies Eight Techniques Fist’, deeply incorporating the fundamental idea of ’Six Harmonies as Body’, ’Eight Skills for Use’.
With proper technique comes adaptability!
The eight skills seamlessly interconnected, everything can be applied!
Tu Tiannan’s knife technique was more systematic, striking, lifting, stabbing, hooking, slashing, thrusting, sweeping, wrist flourishes, wrapping head and turning brain!
"Bold and swift, imposing, with powerful Gang Energy!"
"Like a fierce tiger facing a flock of sheep!"
"This is the ’Five Tigers Herding Sheep Saber’!"
Yan Chuan practiced weapons sparingly and had never shown them on stage, but that didn’t mean he couldn’t wield them.
Whether from the twenty years of hard training at the Martial Arts Hall or the lessons at the Advanced Study Hall in the past two months, he had deep knowledge of the eighteen weapon techniques.
Including the various knife techniques of the ’Wu Family Boxing’, encompassing the ’Five Tigers Herding Sheep Saber’!
This knife technique was bold and fierce, mighty and ferocious, with each move unguarded, each stance hiding mysteries, Tu Tiannan evidently put effort into it, wielding it with familiarity, often showing ingenuity, showcasing a knack for knife technique, rivaling professionals who solely focus on knife training.
Understands one, excels in all, all skills above common, without weaknesses!
Tu Tiannan is such a figure!
They are both such individuals.
"Bite, push, pull, chop, lift, stab, brush, divide, cut!"
"Knife Bite Wrist Cutting!"
"Pushing Knife Turning Ring!"
"Pulling Knife Level Stab!"
"Leader Tu, ’Five Tigers Herding Sheep Saber’ emphasizes might and valor, but cannot be merely forceful, the wrist must be strong, the waist flexible, and the steps light and agile!"
"Turn around, intercept! Chop and advance! Lift tail and turn ring!"
