A glimpse of opportunity: Start by marrying a mermaid bride.

Chapter 70 Even you can't do it, little brother!

"Junior brother, what does your father want with you?"

Chen Shouyi looked at Zheng Xuan and asked, Zheng Xuan replied, "It's nothing, just that you should hit harder during the match, because my younger brother is having a harder time."

Chen Shouyi said, "Really? His face looks purple, like he's about to die."

Zheng Xuan said, "It's nothing, my father is practicing his martial arts."

"What kind of training is this to make your face look like that?"

'

Chen Shouyi asked curiously, and Zheng Xuan replied, "The Turtle Technique."

After saying this, Zheng Xuan didn't want to mention Zheng Daguo anymore.

Zheng Daguo, having suffered a great deal of anger at Zheng Xuan's place, returned home dejectedly. Upon seeing Zheng Daguo, Feng Guiqin immediately asked, "How did it go? Did that kid agree?"

Zheng Daguo shook his head upon hearing this and said, "He disagrees."

"What?"

'

Upon hearing this, Feng Guiqin's eyebrows shot up, and she said angrily, "What are you good for? He's your son, and you can't control him?"

'

Zheng Daguo remained silent, which made Feng Guiqin even angrier: "How could I have been so blind to marry you? If I had known you were such a coward, I would have married a butcher rather than you."

Upon hearing this, Zheng Daguo lowered his head and remained silent. Over the years, he had been so suppressed by Feng Guiqin's words that he had lost all interest in refuting her.

When Feng Guiqin saw that Zheng Daguo was ignoring her, she immediately felt that she was in the right and began to criticize him even more recklessly.

Zheng Jin, watching from the side, shouted irritably, "Alright! Go home and argue if you want, don't argue here."

After saying this, he said, "That Zheng Xuan is ungrateful, so there's no need for him to give way. It's just a matter of a little physical exertion. Does he really think I can't beat him?"

As Zheng Jin was thinking this, someone shouted from the other side of the arena: "Zheng Xuan, Zheng Jin, wait in the arena, number C."

Upon hearing this, Zheng Xuan and Zheng Jin both headed towards the Bing-class arena. When they arrived at the arena, the two exchanged a glance. Zheng Jin said coldly, "I won't hold back in a moment. I hope you can withstand it."

Zheng Xuan smiled upon hearing this, his eyes filled with disdain.

This enraged Zheng Jin, who clenched his fists and gritted his teeth.

Just then, someone on the arena said, "Hey, isn't this Junior Brother Zheng?"

Upon hearing this, Zheng Xuan looked over and saw Zhang Mingliang on the arena. Zhang Mingliang was in high spirits, with a condescending look in his eyes. These days, after joining the Bagua Sect, he had been living a rich life, and his cultivation had even improved to the level of half-step Sequence Eight.

It's a significant improvement compared to when I was with Song Jin'ao.

Zheng Xuan frowned slightly upon seeing this. At this moment, a disciple of the Mantis Sect came up to the arena, and the referee shouted "Start!"

The Mantis Sect disciple bowed deeply and said, "I admit defeat."

Then the referee announced: "The opponent forfeits, Zhang Mingliang of Baguamen wins!"

'

Zhang Mingliang smiled slightly and said, "Junior brother, keep it up. I'm going to rest now."

""

The thirteen martial arts schools in Tianjin are interconnected. When they encounter a core disciple of the opposing school in a match, non-core disciples usually voluntarily concede defeat. This allows the core disciples to conserve their energy for the next match.

This is unfair in principle, but since they are using the rules reasonably, the referee team has no say in it, and besides, the referee team doesn't want to.

Zhang Mingliang stepped down from the ring, and Zheng Xuan and Zheng Jin took his place.

At this moment, everyone's eyes were on the two below the arena. Zhang Shouyi, the leader of the Mantis Sect, said to Liu Yuan, the leader of the White Crane Sect, "Brother Liu, is Zheng Jin your core disciple?"

'

Upon hearing this, Liu Yuan nodded slightly and said, "Yes, this kid has some talent and is quite gifted."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Shouyi said, "Then Song Jin'ao's disciple is in trouble. I heard that this disciple was temporarily taken in by Song Jin'ao after the Zhang brothers betrayed the sect. When the fight breaks out, you must tell your disciple to go easy on him and not kill him."

Upon hearing this, Liu Yuan chuckled and said, "Once you're on the ring, your life or death is up to fate. Who cares whether you live or die?"

As he spoke, his eyes already held an air of certainty that victory was assured.

Leaving aside what the others said, let's talk about Zheng and Xuan.

As they stepped onto the arena, the referee announced, "Next up is Zheng Xuan versus Zheng Jin of the White Crane Sect."

"The match begins!"

'

The referee gave a shout and then left the ring, drawing the attention of the audience.

On the arena, the two stood facing each other, neither speaking.

Zheng Xuan stood very relaxed, with his arms hanging naturally, and his sleeves moving without wind. This is the foundation of Bajiquan's stance training, which emphasizes sinking Qi to the Dantian and extending power to the four extremities.

On the other hand, Zheng Jin, although he took many detours, had a family willing to spend money, was not stupid, and also received the true teachings of the White Crane Sect.

At this moment, he stood like a white crane with its wings folded, his left foot lightly touching the ground, his right hand slightly raised above his shoulder—the starting stance of White Crane Fist, "Like a Crane Spreading its Wings."

The two exchanged a glance, skipped the formalities of clasping their hands in greeting, and immediately began to fight.

At this moment, Zheng Xuan stomped his left foot hard on the ground, using the stomping motion of Bajiquan. The next moment, he shot out like a taut bow, striking Zheng Jin.

Seeing this, Liu Yuan, the head of the White Crane Sect, frowned slightly and said, "This kid has some skill; his Bajiquan is quite impressive."

Upon hearing this, the leader of the Mantis Sect said, "His feet are firmly planted on the ground, and his strength is like a taut bow. This kid has mastered the essence. Your disciple Zheng Jin has met his match."

As the two were talking, Zheng Xuan had already reached Zheng Jin. His right fist twisted out from his waist and came straight for Zheng Jin's face. This was the Bajiquan "Supporting Hammer". Seeing this, Zheng Jin drew a semi-circle from top to bottom with his right hand, palm facing outward, and directly intercepted Zheng Xuan's Supporting Hammer.

Zheng Xuan threw a punch, and felt that 40% of his strength was forcibly reduced, leaving only 60%. Normally, 60% of his strength would hardly be able to harm Zheng Jin.

However, Zheng Xuan was not normal. In addition to the physical improvement brought by the Ming Jin enhancement, he also had a 50% power boost from the Mermaid Body. Therefore, he knocked Zheng Jin back several steps with one punch.

"Ah Jin!"

Upon seeing this, Feng Guiqin, who was watching from the sidelines, shouted nervously.

Zheng Daguo remained silent. When Feng Guiqin saw that he didn't say anything, she got even angrier and kicked him, saying, "Why don't you care about your son?"

Zheng Daguo opened his mouth, but no sound came out.

Meanwhile, on the arena, Zheng Xuan punched Zheng Jin away. Zheng Jin frowned and said, "Your sequence skill is the same as mine, added to strength."

'

He thought that Zheng Xuan's strength was due to his Sequence 9 skill, which could increase strength, so he also activated his skill, which also increased strength.

Zheng Jin stepped forward and unleashed a White Crane Soaring to the Sky attack on Zheng Xuan.

At the same time, activating his skill [Violence] can increase his strength by 70% within the time it takes for an incense stick to burn. With this boost in strength, plus his own Ming Jin power, he actually knocked Zheng Xuan back two steps with a single punch.

Seeing this, Feng Guiqin couldn't help but shout, "Good, well done!"

He kicked Zheng Daguo and said, "Shout!"

'

Zheng Daguo had no choice but to shout along.

Zheng Jin then looked at Zheng Xuan and said, "Hehe, you think you're the only one who can increase your strength? I can too. This punch won't be easy to take, will it? We're both fathers, so I'll give you a chance. It's not too late to admit defeat now."

Upon hearing this, Zheng Xuan looked at Zheng Jin and said, "Hehe, not bad, that's not bad, but you're being too boastful."

"With this little strength, you think you can subdue the enemy without fighting? Come on, brother, I'll give you three more moves. For the first three moves, I'll only defend and not attack. After those three moves, you won't have a chance to throw a punch."

Arrogant!

Upon hearing this, Zheng Jin roared angrily and attacked in a fit of rage.

Seeing this, Zhang Shouyi, the leader of the Mantis Sect, said to Liu Yuan, "Oh no, your disciple has been tricked."
