Rise from a Poor Family: My Martial Arts Counterattack

Chapter 68 I sincerely feel that this person is as capable as I am

People are numb!
Fu Ang on the ring felt his heart turn cold.

I just want to save face, I don't really want to compete with you.

He didn't want to experience the pain of having his flesh cut by a knife a second time.

Lin Chen couldn't see Fu Ang's facial expression, and didn't know what Fu Ang was feeling at the moment. He just seemed to see confusion in the other's eyes.

Illusion?
Or are you deliberately deceiving yourself?

Lin Chen was concentrating and on guard. The last time his opponent lost to him, he should have known that he had already mastered some aspects of Qingfeng Palm, but he still wanted to challenge him. In addition to a breakthrough in realm, it is possible that he had also made progress in his technique.

Both Qingfeng Palm and Shuiyun Palm can be used to strike back after the opponent attacks, and Tiegu Gong is very rough and fierce, so there is no need to be afraid even if the opponent attacks first.

The Iron Bone Skill does not have the rhythm of a violent storm, so Lin Chen is not afraid that the opponent will attack first and he will fall into the rhythm of the opponent's skills.

Lin Chen didn't move, and Fu Ang didn't want to move even more.

On the ring, both of them stood quietly.

But the martial artists watching below the arena refused to accept this.

Are you two going on stage to perform the standing meditation?
Show off your solid horse stance?

"Senior Brother Lin and Fu Ang have fought each other?"

Lu Yongfeng had already returned to the side of Zhao Jingchuan and Cheng Ying at this moment. He looked at the two people standing still on the stage and asked curiously.

"We don't know that Senior Brother Lin has ever defeated Fu Ang, but just before Fu Ang challenged him to a duel, Senior Brother Lin said that Fu Ang's strength was not inferior to his."

Zhao Jingchuan repeated what Lin Chen said.

"The disciples of Zhenyue Martial Arts School are indeed difficult to deal with. It is said that Fu Ang has mastered the Iron Bone Skill to perfection. It is hard to say whether Senior Brother Lin can win this battle." There was worry in Lu Yongfeng's eyes.

"I still believe that Senior Brother Lin will win." Zhao Jingchuan looked confident. He didn't know why, but since the martial arts hall, he has always been full of confidence in Senior Brother Lin.

In the arena.

Fu Ang looked at Lin Chen and asked in a deep voice, "Are you an old student or a new student?"

Lin Chen hesitated for a moment and said, "New student."

After telling the truth, Lin Chen found that Fu Ang's eyes had changed. The confusion was gone, and instead there was a desire to fight.

"Then come on."

After getting the answer, Fu Ang's fear disappeared.

He was indeed afraid of the pain of having a knife cut his flesh, but that was based on the premise that his opponent was an old student.

As a new student, he did not seek to be beaten when fighting against old students.

But since the other party is a student from the new class, he is his competitor. If he is afraid of pain and is afraid of his competitor, then why is he still practicing martial arts?

Lin Chen sensed the other party's desire to fight and did not delay any further. Since the other party was not going to take action, he would have to take action first.

Swish!
Lin Chen took a step forward, leaving a shadow on the spot. He arrived in front of Fu Ang and slapped out with his right palm swiftly. Wherever it passed, the air seemed to be cut by a sharp blade, making a hissing sound.

Fu Ang's eyelids twitched, and he did not choose to use his arms to block the blow. Instead, his sturdy body made a nimble turn and he stomped his feet hard, causing the arena to tremble.

With the recoil force under his feet, Fu Ang was wrapped in a strong wind and crashed into Lin Chen like a moving mountain.

Unlike the last time, this time Fu Ang hit him from behind.

In the Iron Bone Kung Fu, the hardest part is the back.

Fu Ang’s speed is very fast, but it’s nothing to Lin Chen.

Facing Fu Ang's collision, he could choose to avoid it, but in the blink of an eye, Lin Chen finally decided to go for it head-on.

He wanted to try out how strong the Iron Bone Skill's defense was.

Seeing that Lin Chen chose to take it head-on, several masked warriors in the audience showed sarcasm in their eyes.

What a cocky idiot!

The mastery level of Iron Bone Kung Fu, his back is so hard that it is difficult to break his defense without surpassing two acupoints. Even the Iron Collapse Fist of the Iron Blood Martial Arts School cannot do it.

The Qingfeng Palm landed on Fu Ang's back, and there was a loud "bang" sound, like the sound of metal clashing. Fu Ang's body paused, but there was a look of joy on his face.

Blocked!

Feeling the recoil force from his palm, Lin Chen raised his eyebrows. The defense of Iron Bone Skill was indeed incredibly strong, but this was not enough!
boom!
Lin Chen slapped out again, and this time, the power of his Qingfeng Palm was increased a bit.

Bang bang bang!
Three consecutive slaps!

There was total silence in the audience.

Everyone was looking at Fu Ang, who had arched his back high just a moment ago, and his back kept bending!
Several warriors had deep shock in their eyes, staring at Lin Chen's palm.

hiss!
Fu Ang, the person involved, had a grin on his face beneath the mask.

pain!
It hurts so much!
The first palm was fine, but the second palm almost made him fall down.

This person's strength has improved compared to last time?

But this time, Fu Ang did not intend to admit defeat. After knowing that his opponent was a new student, he would not admit defeat as long as he did not fall down, and would not escape from the ring.

boom!
Fu Ang fell down. After Lin Chen's fourth Qingfeng Palm landed, he completely fell on the ring.

There was silence at the scene.

Countless burning eyes fell on Lin Chen, some were shocked, some were afraid, some were unbelievable...

"This... is this what Senior Brother Lin said, that the other party's strength is not inferior to his?"

Cheng Ying opened his mouth slightly, and recalled the tone of voice Senior Brother Lin had used when he had said this before.

Are you serious, Brother Lin?

"Qingfeng Palm is at the minor level, Five Apertures Realm. It seems that the information collected by the instructor is wrong."

"There are disciples in Qingfeng Martial Arts School who have been hiding their abilities. Now they feel that the competition is coming soon, so they don't need to hide their abilities anymore?"

In the audience, many students who were interested in competing for the ranking in the competition among the eight major martial arts schools had serious expressions and were whispering to each other.

It seems that I need to get to know the situation of students in major martial arts schools again.

Qingfeng Martial Arts School has people who hide their weaknesses, and I'm afraid other martial arts schools also have them. They even know very well deep down in their hearts that their own martial arts schools also have people who hide their weaknesses.

Fortunately, this person has only opened up five places, so his realm is a bit low, so there is no need to worry.

"Accepted."

Lin Chen walked down from the stage, and Lu Yongfeng whispered to Zhao Jingchuan and Cheng Ying, "Don't make contact with Senior Brother Lin yet. You two are not wearing masks, which may expose Senior Brother Lin's identity. I see that many people at the scene are staring at Senior Brother Lin at the moment."

Lu Yongfeng glanced at the scene. Senior Brother Lin was performing the Qingfeng Palm. Before his identity was revealed, everyone would only suspect that he was a disciple of the Qingfeng Martial Arts School. This would be good for Senior Brother Lin in the duel, at least it would make his opponent underestimate him.

Fu Ang stood up from the ring, took a deep look at Lin Chen's departing back, then jumped off the ring and walked towards the courtyard exit without stopping. No one was so blind as to stop him or ridicule him at this time.

Lin Chen got off the stage and saw Lu Yongfeng and the other two walking towards the gate. A hint of doubt flashed across his eyes at first, but the next moment he guessed what the three were thinking.

Not contacting myself is because I don’t want to expose my identity.

Lu Yongfeng and the other two all came from Kaohe Town. If I stood with them, someone who was interested would be able to guess my identity.

Lin Chen could feel that the eyes of the warriors around him were full of fear and suspicion when they looked at him, but he didn't care. He followed Fu Ang and left the arena.

When Lin Chen stepped into the courtyard of Zhao Jingchuan's elder, he saw Lu Yongfeng and the other two.

"Brother Lin, you are being too modest."

When Cheng Ying saw Lin Chen coming in, he shook his head and said, "When you, Senior Brother Lin, went on stage to fight Fu Ang, we were worried about you for a long time."

modesty?

Lin Chen explained: "I am not being modest. I really think that Fu Ang is as strong as me. Maybe he is just hiding his weakness on purpose."

After defeating Fu Ang, Lin Chen did not become complacent.

When Lu Yongfeng, who was standing by, heard Lin Chen's words, his pupils suddenly shrank. He had been feeling proud of defeating a disciple from the Mantis Martial Arts School, but now he calmed down instantly.

Senior Brother Lin is right. Victory in the ring doesn’t mean anything. Maybe the opponent didn’t try his best and he underestimated him and was defeated by me.

Zhao Jingchuan smiled slightly, he still felt that Senior Brother Lin was too modest.

"Brother Lin, you have reached the fifth level now. You have a great chance of making the top ten in this competition."

"It's hard to say. Fu Ang is the second-ranked student in the new class of Zhenyue Martial Arts School. There is another one above him, and there must be others in other martial arts schools as well. The top-ranked student in each martial arts school will eliminate eight spots."

After hearing Lin Chen's answer, Lu Yongfeng and the other two fell silent. It was indeed true.

The first place winner of each martial arts school this session is extremely strong. They have already entered the seventh stage of awakening and their proficiency in martial arts is not low.

As for students who have opened up six acupoints, there are quite a few of them. With thirteen days left, perhaps some of them will be able to enter seven acupoints.

After a moment, Lu Yongfeng raised his eyes and said, "If Senior Brother Lin can enter the Six Apertures, he should be able to secure a place in the top ten."

"Yes, Senior Brother Lin, if you can enter the Six Apertures, you will definitely be safe. If you are short of money, I can still give you some more."

Zhao Jingchuan agreed and looked at Lin Chen: "Brother Lin, in addition to the Zhiqiao Pills, you can also buy some rare bird meat."

"The money is enough for now." Lin Chen waved his hand and said seriously, "The martial arts hall just gave me some money."

"The martial arts school gave you money, Senior Brother Lin. Isn't that against the rules?"

Cheng Ying spoke, and the next moment he immediately covered his mouth, and even looked around cautiously, fearing that what he had just said would be heard by others.

The martial arts school will not give resources and money privately just because it values a student. Cheng Ying and the others all know this iron rule.

"It's not a violation. It's a reward set by the martial arts school and approved by the martial arts administration."

Lin Chen didn't say much, but when he said this, Lu Yongfeng and the other two opened their mouths even wider.

Cheng Ying and Zhao Jingchuan knew that the martial arts school had a reward system, but they knew in their hearts that they could not get any of the rewards, so they never cared about it. They only knew that those who could get the rewards were definitely not ordinary people.

There was disbelief in Lu Yongfeng's eyes. He was proud and had specially memorized this information when he entered the martial arts gym.

Brother Lin does not qualify for the rewards based on martial arts realm, so the reward is based on proficiency in martial arts techniques.

If you can achieve some success in martial arts within three months, you will be rewarded with twenty taels.

So Senior Brother Lin has already mastered the Qingfeng Palm?
After being shocked, Lu Yongfeng also came to his senses. If it weren’t for Xiaocheng’s Qingfeng Palm, how could Senior Brother Lin have defeated Fu Ang?
