I practiced my spirituality alone in Hong Kong.

Li Chang'an shrank his body like a nimble snake crouching in the grass, then suddenly lunged forward, his two fingers flashing out in a swift motion—the Double Snakes Playing with a Pearl.

The fingertips moved so fast that they were just a blur, barely grazing Chen Yuanlong's shoulder, a gust of wind hitting his face.

Before Chen Yuanlong could even get into a defensive stance, he felt a chill in his throat, his heart skipped a beat, and he instinctively took a half-step back.

When he came to his senses, he found that Li Chang'an had already stopped his stance and withdrawn his fingers from his throat, his breathing had become steady again.

"Brother Chen, the combination of the 'inserting fist' and footwork is that fast. When you're quickly exchanging moves, you can easily draw blood if you're not careful."

Chen Yuanlong didn't speak. He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and looked at Li Chang'an with a somewhat dazed expression.

Just now, he actually had the feeling of being Bruce Lee's opponent when he worked with him back then!

They weren't just going through the motions; they were facing the murderous intent head-on.

Face a true martial artist!

There's actually a resemblance to Bruce Lee in Andy!

Before Chen Yuanlong could react, he suddenly heard a hearty laugh coming from the entrance of the film set:

"Hey Anzai, Ah Long, you're out practicing your boxing so early?"

The two turned their heads and saw Director Yuan, dressed in a casual shirt, walking quickly towards them.

Behind Director Yuan was a tall, upright man with a long face, high cheekbones, and slightly sunken eyes, and a young woman wearing a light apricot-colored fitted shirt.

The young woman was beautiful without being gaudy, charming without being vulgar, and possessed an elegance and poise that was not found in ordinary women. She made people feel approachable and respectable upon meeting her, yet dared not be presumptuous.

Chen Yuanlong was immediately drawn to her, and whispered in Li Chang'an's ear:

"Unbelievable, Anzai! This beautiful girl is absolutely gorgeous!"

This aura, it's obvious he comes from a wealthy family, something even actresses couldn't pull off..."

Li Chang'an did not reply, because his attention was entirely focused on the man, and he did not notice Wen Zhilan's presence at all.

[Young man, the master of the Eagle Claw Sect, the sworn enemy of the Snake Fist lineage, is coming to hunt you down!]

The only young successor of the Snake Fist style is right behind you. You absolutely cannot let him die at the hands of the Eagle Claw Sect Master!

A second person with a special identity has appeared... according to the narrator!

As the narration faded away, Li Chang'an began to observe the man even more carefully.

He quickly realized that this person was different from the other stuntmen on set.

Ordinary martial arts practitioners, in order to look good on camera, will stand up straight, relax their shoulders, and ensure that their physique is beautiful and powerful.

However, they did not practice the basic skills of stance training for a long time. Their shoulders and necks were loose, and even if they took big steps, it was all for the sake of performance.

When this person swayed his body, the amplitude was very small, restrained and unassuming.

But his shoulders were low and his back was tight, his hips were hidden and his steps were steady.

Although the movements were small, his whole body was like a fully drawn bow; just standing there, he exuded an unstoppable force.

Li Chang'an was certain that the opponent's blood and energy were far greater than his own!

Without a doubt, this was the first... true martial artist that Li Chang'an had ever seen on set!

"Anzai, Ah Long, let me introduce you."

"This is Hwang Jung-ri, a senior martial arts master from South Korea. Master Hwang is a 7th Dan black belt in Taekwondo."

He was invited to play Shangguan Yiyun, the leader of the Eagle Claw Sect, in the script, and will have scenes opposite Ah Long.

"This Miss Wen is Mr. Huang's English translator."

Miss Wen...

Only then did Li Chang'an notice Wen Zhilan's figure, and he exclaimed in surprise:

"The class monitor?"

Wen Zhilan did not feel embarrassed by being ignored.

Even though her best friend had cursed this boy in front of her all night, calling him a bastard and a cuckold, she now chuckled lightly and generously:

"Li Chang'an, I didn't expect to run into you here."

"Anzai, so you know this Miss Wen?"

Chen Yuanlong nudged Li Chang'an with his elbow, thinking that this kid was not to be underestimated, as he actually knew such a well-bred young lady.

Li Chang'an nodded.

"Wen and I were in the same class in middle school; she was my class monitor."

Upon hearing this, Director Yuan clapped and said, "That's great! We're all acquaintances, so it will be much easier to work together on set later."

"Master Huang, let me take you to meet the other guys on set first. Ah Long, don't you know a few words of English? Come over here and help me take care of Master Huang."

Upon hearing this, Chen Yuanlong's face fell.

Director Yuan, I only finished one year of elementary school before I graduated. I have dated foreign girls, but I don't understand any foreign languages!

However, Chen Yuanlong also understood that Director Yuan was creating an "opportunity" for Li Chang'an.

So he nudged Li Chang'an's arm, chuckled, and followed him.

Once the surroundings quieted down, Wen Zhilan's gaze fell on Li Chang'an, with a mixture of scrutiny and curiosity.

"Li Chang'an, I didn't expect you to know kung fu. I heard from Director Yuan and Master Huang that you were taught by a kung fu master, which Xing Ning never told me before."

Upon hearing this, Li Chang'an's lips twitched almost imperceptibly.

He never expected that Director Yuan would still firmly believe in his non-existent kung fu master, and even promote him throughout the martial arts film industry.

At this moment, Li Chang'an couldn't very well contradict Director Yuan, so he could only vaguely gloss over the issue and then change the subject:

"Squad leader, why are you acting as Master Huang's translator?"

"Of course I'll work during the summer vacation to earn money for my studies. What, is it that only a grown man like you is allowed to venture into Qingshan Road, but a weak woman like me isn't allowed to try?"

Wen Zhilan smiled and raised her small, fair fist, mimicking the boxing moves of female warriors in movies, and waved it at him.

Li Chang'an raised his hand in a gesture of surrender.

"No, no, Miss Wen is the daughter of a Justice of the Peace. I am so grateful that she would deign to come and help us roughnecks with our work and study. How could I dare to have any objections?"

(Justice of the Peace: An honorary title bestowed upon prominent figures and dignitaries in Hong Kong society by the British Governor of Hong Kong.)

Seeing that he had given in, Wen Zhilan finally withdrew her small fist and gave a soft snort.

"Hmph, if you look down on us weak women again, I'll beat you up... hahaha."

Having finished speaking, Wen Zhilan, who had thoroughly enjoyed her role as a female knight-errant, couldn't help but cover her pink lips and burst out laughing.

The two of them tacitly avoided mentioning Su Xingning.

Moreover, based on what Wen Zhilan has seen with her own eyes, Li Chang'an is not the kind of person Xing Ning described, someone who is completely useless just because he doesn't repeat a grade.

Although she didn't understand kung fu, she could tell that Li Chang'an had real skill in subduing Chen Yuanlong, who was much stronger than him, with just one move.

Given how highly Director Yuan values ​​him, Li Chang'an's decision to give up retaking the college entrance exam and come to the film set suggests he had already made his own plans.

"Perhaps I can tell Xingning when we get back, and ask her to trust Li Chang'an this once. After all, boys should also have their own opinions."

Wen Zhilan thought to herself.
