Starting from Tianlong, Wudu Tianxia

"Brother Gu, please don't hesitate to offer your guidance."

To Gu Feng's slight surprise, the boy in front of him did not show any fear after hearing his words. Instead, he stood up and took a few steps forward.

"I've heard that you've only mastered a fraction of martial arts, young man. I won't take advantage of you; let's just compare our moves."

Gu Feng had no ill intentions; he was simply curious to see why the so-called Xuanqi was ranked ahead of Duan Dao in both places.

He had been learning martial arts since childhood and for ten years, making him one of the best among the younger disciples of the Tong family. Naturally, he would not stoop to bullying a boy younger than him.

"Everything is as Brother Gu says."

Gao Yuan bent his knees, his feet slightly apart, and moved his upper body with his fists and palms, his movements light and graceful, as if floating.

Gu Feng had practiced martial arts for many years. Although he could only be considered an ordinary martial artist in the martial arts world, he was still considered to have entered the ranks and had some knowledge.

Seeing that Gao Yuan's starting stance was different from ordinary punches and kicks, he immediately became interested.

As for whether Gao Yuan is just for show, a test will tell.

Among the group, only Wang Xin had some knowledge of martial arts, while Xu Xiang Sheng came from a family with a long tradition of martial arts.

Seeing Gao Yuan's movements, both of them showed surprise, unable to discern what martial art he was using.

"Brother Gu's agility is truly remarkable!"

Wang Xin's expression changed, and he said to Xu Xiang Sheng, "The Jade-Breaking Soul-Severing Blade emphasizes the use of both fist and blade. Senior Brother Gu's moves are powerful and heavy, like Mount Tai pressing down. I'm afraid Brother Yuan won't be able to withstand more than a few moves."

"It's alright, Senior Brother Gu knows what he's doing. Brother Wang can just observe quietly."

Seeing that Xu Xiang Sheng showed no concern, Wang Xin had no choice but to remain silent and keep a close eye on the two of them.

If anything seems amiss, be prepared to step in and stop it.

"it is good."

The Accord wasn't very big to begin with. Gu Feng started with a normal opening punch, then suddenly pushed off with his toes, his sleeves making a short, sharp whistling sound, and covered the two-zhang distance in the blink of an eye.

As soon as he stood on his right foot, he slightly bent his three right fingers and extended them straight out, attacking Gao Yuan's face. He was using the "Grasping Clouds" technique, intending to seize the opportunity to attack Gao Yuan's supraclavicular acupoint.

Gao Yuan noticed something amiss; Gu Feng had knocked his forearm open in an attempt to decide the outcome in one move. So, he thrust his right palm forward and deflected Gu Feng's forearm.

The two exchanged blows. Gu Feng was seven or eight years older than him, and their physiques were on completely different levels. Even without using his internal energy, Gu Feng's sheer size was enough to make Gu Feng's forearm go numb.

We can't tough it out!

As Gao Yuan's mind raced, Gu Feng's left palm struck again, still in the Cloud-Grabbing Style, but this time aimed directly at Gao Yuan's chin.

In just a few breaths, Gu Feng struck Gu Feng's jaw with his fist, each move aimed at controlling him in one blow.

Gao Yuan leaned back and forward, barely dodging the attack. As soon as he regained his balance, Gu Feng changed from the Cloud-Grabbing Stance to the Wind-Catching Stance.

The palm transforms into a fist, the palm flips, the fingers extend, and then the fist is thrown again; the movements change seamlessly.

Gao Yuan, however, was quick-witted. He slightly evaded the attack and dodged it again.

In the blink of an eye, the two had exchanged seven or eight moves.

Gu Feng maintained a strong offensive stance throughout, which was due to his extensive combat experience and his years of dedicated study of this particular style of boxing.

Gao Yuan focused on defense, his movements unpredictable, shifting between real and feint, sometimes forward, sometimes backward, a dazzling and graceful display that captivated Huang Shang, who had always had no interest in martial arts. Huang Shang asked, "..."

"Brother Wang, do you know what kind of martial arts Brother Gao uses? Ordinary people can't even roll and jump as nimbly as Brother Gao."

Upon hearing this, the group frowned and shook their heads, but they didn't find it strange.

The world is vast, and martial arts are flourishing; this must be yet another unique skill of Mr. Fan.

In terms of age, Gao Yuan was only fourteen years old and had almost no experience in fighting enemies. Although he tried his best, he gradually lost ground.

He knew in his heart that he had to launch a quick attack, otherwise he wouldn't be able to hold out for long!

Having figured it out, Gao Yuan stopped holding back and dodging. Taking advantage of the gap in Gu Feng's counterattack, he stepped forward instead of retreating and deliberately exposed his upper body.

as predicted……

Gu Feng dodged to the side, then pressed forward again, delivering a powerful straight punch that whistled through the air, aimed at Gao Yuan's chest.

The two rushed in at the same time, and within a single step, they began to engage in close combat.

Gao Yuan remained calm and composed. He lightly tapped his feet, and his right palm, like a nimble snake emerging from its hole, met the straight punch with unparalleled precision in a strange arc.

Just as the fist was about to touch his cheek.

Gao Yuan suddenly flipped his right palm, cleverly placing it against the outside of Gu Feng's wrist, and with a flick of his thumb, he actually caught the meridian in Gu Feng's wrist.

The movements were executed in one fluid motion, seemingly simple, yet they contained the exquisite grappling techniques of the Tianshan Plum Blossom School.

With his wrist meridians blocked, Gu Feng subconsciously tried to activate his internal energy to break free.

Unexpectedly, as soon as his internal energy began to rise, the Northern Darkness True Qi within Gao Yuan's body was also stirred and began to circulate naturally.

Gao Yuan felt a surge of heat rushing into his right index finger, which was gripping Gu Feng's hand. The strange vortex-like true energy he had cultivated in his chest seemed to be drawing in and absorbing Gu Feng's internal energy.

not good!

He hurriedly stopped the flow of the Northern Darkness True Qi, then suddenly exerted his strength, twisting the two at an angle that defied common sense. The two separated instantly, and Gu Feng lost his balance, staggering backward a few steps.

As soon as Gao Yuan had gained his footing, fearing that Gu Feng would continue to pester him, he immediately clasped his hands in a fist and said, "Brother Gu, please forgive me."

He secretly sighed with relief, realizing that if they hadn't separated in time, the Northern Darkness True Qi would have drawn Gu Feng's inner force to surge forth.

His secret will be out of reach then.

Whether Bei Ming is exposed or suspected of secretly learning the Huagong Dafa, it will be harmful to him.

He appeared unharmed, but inwardly he felt resentful towards Gu Feng, thinking, "We agreed to only compare techniques, but you used your internal energy instead."

Gu Feng stood up, but was greatly alarmed. He had subconsciously tried to circulate his internal energy, but it was like a mud ox entering a river. He didn't know what kind of method Gao Yuan had used to deflect the force.

According to Wang Xin and the others, he has only been learning martial arts for a short time. This person is truly gifted, just like the monstrous talent of the Murong family in Pingjiang Prefecture.

He awkwardly laughed and said, "Young man, you have excellent martial arts skills!" Then, remembering that he had agreed to only compare moves, he felt embarrassed.

Gu Feng was about to apologize when Gao Yuan interrupted him:

"Brother Gu's martial arts skills are superb, and his moves are exquisite. If he hadn't intended to give me guidance, I wouldn't have accidentally broken his moves. Don't take it seriously."

Seeing Gao Yuan proactively cover for him, Gu Feng was filled with admiration and immediately returned the gesture with clasped hands.

"Mr. Fan's martial arts skills are superb, truly living up to his reputation. I admire him greatly. Brother Gao is upright and honest, and I consider him a friend. If you ever encounter any trouble, you can come to Pingjiang Prefecture to find me."

Everyone wants to carry a sedan chair, and Gu Feng wasn't completely clueless about social etiquette. After saying his polite words, he glanced at Li Chenghuan, the warning in his eyes being quite clear.

"Brother Gu, you're too kind. If I have the chance to visit Pingjiang Prefecture, I will definitely seek you out for a drink and a martial arts contest."

Li Chenghuan felt a chill run down his spine after being stared at by Gu Feng, but remained silent and sullen on the surface. Huang Shang and the others on the side, however, watched with fascination.

"Brother Gao has only studied martial arts for a short time, yet he was able to defeat Senior Brother Gu with his moves. No wonder he caught Mr. Fan's eye. Such extraordinary talent is comparable to that of Young Master Murong of Pingjiang. Given time, his potential is immeasurable."

"Could it be the Murong family of Gusu?"

Xu Xiang-sheng gently waved his folding fan and began to speak slowly:

"Yes, it is Brother Murong from Yanziwu. He is three years older than Brother Gao, and his martial arts skills have already reached a high level. He is well-known for his chivalry in Pingjiang Prefecture."

Gao Yuan put his mind to work.

"Judging from his words, Murong Fu is three years older than him, which is seventeen years. When he officially appears in Tianlong, he is twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, and Qiao Feng is thirty years old. In other words, the point at which I was actually reborn is before the start of the Tianlong storyline."

ten years?"

Good heavens, Wang Yuyan is only seven years old now, and Duan Yu is only ten. It's too early for them to be separated from Qiao Feng or for Murong Yang to become famous.

As for why they are called "tragic Qiao Feng" and "difficult Murong"...

Qiao Feng spent his entire life seeking neither benevolence, nor affection, nor righteousness; how tragic was that?

Murong Fu was instilled with the idea of ​​"restoring the country" from a young age. His life consisted only of practicing martial arts and studying, with no time for play or entertainment. It's no wonder he eventually went mad.

"Brother Xu, do you know Young Master Murong?" Gao Yuan asked curiously.

"Brother Murong comes from a family with a long tradition of learning, and he is well-versed in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. I was fortunate enough to appreciate a bit of his knowledge at a literary gathering."

Gao Yuan thought to himself that Murong Fu was different from Qiao Feng; he was a man of both literary and martial talents and would indeed do things like befriending scholars and powerful figures.

The literary gathering is similar to a small academic salon, which can not only enhance knowledge but also build connections.
