Republic of China: My great warlord, many children, many blessings.

Huang Qiying turned around, retreated, and launched a flying kick.

boom!

The two collided with a real force.

They all fell onto the plum blossom stakes.

Tengteng took several steps back.

The mere fact that the bricks beneath their feet cracked and broke as they neutralized the opponent's force demonstrated just how powerful their attacks were.

Huang Qiying and Gong Baosen both let out a long sigh of relief.

Huang Qiying clasped his hands in a fist salute and said, "Master Gong is truly amazing!"

"Master Huang, you're too kind. We're evenly matched; I haven't taken advantage of you in any way, so how can you say I'm superior?"

Shen Hao clapped and said, "Amazing! Absolutely brilliant! No wonder you two are grandmasters!"

The magical power displayed by the two during their fight was an eye-opener for Shen Hao.

An ordinary move, but if it hits an ordinary person, it could rupture their internal organs.

The two men use different styles of boxing, one from the south and the other from the north.

Gong Baosen said, "Commander Shen, I have a favor to ask."

"Master Gong, please speak."

“My daughter has been practicing martial arts since she was a child and is extremely passionate about it. I have observed that Commander Shen is quite skilled. Why don’t you personally give my daughter some pointers?”

This will also teach her a lesson, showing her that there are always people more capable than herself.

Gong Er gave a haughty snort and lightly leaped onto the 1.7-meter plum blossom stake.

He made a starting gesture and said, "Please."

Seeing this, Shen Hao smiled and performed a backflip, landing steadily on the plum blossom stake.

This move alone made everyone realize that Commander Shen was not someone to be trifled with.

Gong Er clasped her hands in a fist salute without expression, and then assumed the starting stance of Baguazhang.

Then, without further ado, he threw a punch straight at Shen Hao's chest.

Shen Hao dodged to the side and slapped Gong Er's wrist.

The immense force caused Gong Er's body to change direction.

I almost fell off the plum blossom stake by accident.

He quickly clamped his feet between the plum blossom stakes, twisted his body, and stood up again.

Her expression turned serious, and the redness and swelling on her wrist told her that Shen Hao's strength was terrifying.

Gong Er held her breath and focused her mind, her usually cool face filled with seriousness.

Looking at Shen Hao's tall figure, they knew they couldn't confront him head-on.

With a quick step, he closed in on Shen Hao, slashing with his left hand. Seeing Shen Hao block with his elbow, he feinted a shot, then half-squatted down and lowered his palm, striking directly at Shen Hao's knee.

Shen Hao squatted down in a Wing Chun inward-pointing stance, and with a gentle pull of his right hand, he directly trapped Gong Er's hand between his legs.

I couldn't get it out for a long time.

Shen Hao also firmly grasped her other hand.

With his right fist clenched, he delivered a straight punch in the shape of the character "日" (sun), aiming directly at Gong Er's jaw. However, he stopped at the crucial moment, stopping short of causing serious injury.

Gong Er's originally calm and composed face showed a hint of panic.

It's obvious that the two are not in the same league at all.

Gong Baosen also saw through Shen Hao's style, but he didn't expect it to be Wing Chun.

He knew in his heart that Shen Hao had shown mercy.

Wing Chun and Hung Kuen are both Southern styles of boxing. Unlike the open and expansive styles of Northern boxing, these styles are more restrained, dignified, elegant, and composed.

Moreover, Shen Hao appeared relaxed and at ease during the battle, showing absolutely no tension.

It is obvious that they are experienced in dealing with the enemy.

Not only are they incredibly strong, but they're also so experienced; they must have been in countless fights.

Because she was restrained by Shen Hao, Gong Er was unable to move for a long time, and her face turned red with anxiety.

Seeing this, Gong Baosen said, "...Ruomei, are you still not going to admit defeat?"

Gong Er nodded defiantly and said, "I lose, stand up."

Shen Hao smiled slightly and released Gong Er's hand.

And you know what? This girl not only has fair skin, but her hands are also smooth.

It's nothing like the rough and unrefined manner of someone who practices martial arts regularly.

After saying, "My skills are inferior, I humbly admit defeat," Gong Er, though unwilling to accept it, still clasped her hands in a fist salute.

At the peak of her martial arts prowess at the young age of 15, she was incredibly arrogant.

He was naturally intelligent and thought that defeating a division commander would be a piece of cake, but he was defeated in just two moves and lost in a humiliating way.

164. The Sick Man of East Asia, nothing more than that.

Normally, someone of Shen Hao's stature wouldn't bother competing with Gong Er; it would be beneath him.

But Gong Er also has another identity: the female lead in the movie "The Grandmaster," which makes her worth investing in.

Now that he's a division commander, the system has some requirements for the concubine Shen Hao is allowed to take.

The rewards for civilian status are no longer sufficient.

This is similar to being in a beginner area (levels 1-10), where killing a monster there gives you a lot of experience.

But if you're already level 80, and you come to the newbie area to kill monsters, you won't gain any experience at all.

So, here's the problem.

You must find new bosses to fight.

Gong Er is the new boss, someone worth investing in, which is why Shen Hao started to spar with her.

At least get to know him first, so it'll be easier to deal with him later.

Gong Baosen shook his head as he looked at his daughter, Gong Ruomei, who seemed unconvinced.

His daughter was exceptionally intelligent and a martial arts prodigy from a young age.

This is precisely why Gong Er developed an arrogant and competitive personality from a young age.

They only admire the strong and ignore everyone else.

Today may be the first setback in her life, and it is also a profound lesson for her work.

The competition had just ended when a heavy snow began to fall from the sky.

Gong Baosen clasped his hands in a fist salute to Shen Hao and said, "Commander Shen, it's snowing. Come inside and warm up, don't catch a cold outside."

　187 Looking at the snowflakes floating in the air like willow catkins, Shen Hao said with some surprise, "It's already March, and it's still snowing in Fengtian."

Shen Hao wasn't from around here, so of course he didn't know anything about the weather here.

Gong Baosen explained, "Commander Shen may not know this, but snow in March is normal in Fengtian, you could say it's an everyday occurrence."

It's not uncommon for it to snow in Fengtian in April and May.

Moreover, the snowfall period in the entire Northeast region is relatively long.

The timing of snowfall varies from province to province.

Snowfall typically begins in November, but in extreme weather conditions, it can occur as early as October.

It often snows in April of the following year.

The snowfall period is relatively long throughout the winter, generally lasting about five months.

Shen Hao nodded and said, "No wonder, it's almost spring, but it's still so cold."

"It's alright, you'll get used to it. Commander Shen, please have a seat. I'll go heat up some wine," Gong Baosen said with a smile.

After saying this, he instructed his disciple to fetch the wine.

Zhang Shoufang leaned on Shen Hao's shoulder, a sweet smile on her face ever since they left, clinging to him and refusing to let go.

"Husband, are you hungry? How about we go back and I'll cook for you?"

"I'm not hungry. Are you hungry?" Shen Hao asked, puzzled.

"I feel happy just looking at you, and my stomach feels full," Zhang Shoufang said shyly.

Shen Hao: ? ? ?

Does this mean you're full just by looking at me?

Just then, Gong Baosen brought up the wine.
