Gou Zai Xianwu Wenjing Search for Opportunities

Lin Yuan easily dodged the palm strike, earning cheers from Hu Cai and Zhao Sheng.

Knowing that his strength was inferior to Xu Zhan's, Lin Yuan did not choose to confront him head-on. Instead, he used a snake-like footwork to twist his body in two steps, circled around to Xu Zhan's side, and used the Taizu Long Fist to deliver a twisting elbow strike, striking Xu Zhan's neck flat.

To make the performance look good, he used all his strength in this move, knowing that Xu Zhan's martial arts skills were high enough to withstand it.

Taizu Changquan is known for its wide and sweeping movements, but Lin Yuan's execution of it was surprisingly cunning and unexpected.

Xu Zhan hadn't expected his footwork to be so agile. In the blink of an eye, he twisted away to counterattack. However, being highly skilled and daring, he not only wasn't afraid but also met the attack with a palm strike, shouting, "Well done!"

In the blink of an eye, the two exchanged a move, much to the delight of the tea drinkers, who clamored for a fiercer attack.

Seeing that Xu Zhan cooperated so well, Lin Yuan felt relieved and strictly followed Xu Zhan's instructions, no longer holding back or holding back. He stayed close to Xu Zhan, and as soon as he got to the output position, he would immediately launch a full-force sneak attack, forcing Xu Zhan to defend.

After nine moves, whenever Xu Zhan attacked, Lin Yuan was always able to dodge and quickly find a blind spot to launch a counterattack.

Xu Zhan was greatly troubled. Such tricky footwork and attack angles were not like the style of Taizu Changquan.

In particular, this footwork is incredibly skillful; it can get right next to you and still manage to get around you, which is something that not everyone can do.

He then remembered that Lin Yuan had learned the Snake-Slaying Saber Technique, which should be the Seven Steps of the Snake. He just didn't expect that Lin Yuan could actually combine the Long Fist with the Seven Steps of the Snake.

If Lin Yuan knocks them off the stage in a few moves, then this silver will be a hot potato.

They had agreed to fight for a full three hundred moves to determine the winner, so this is a bit awkward.

Xu Zhan recalled his boastful words and felt his face burning with embarrassment, his heart filled with anxiety.

Fortunately, his martial arts foundation was not weak, his physical body was a small realm higher than Lin Yuan's, and his strength was a bit stronger.

Xu Zhan immediately abandoned his promise, no longer daring to hold back or reduce his strength, and wanted to stabilize the situation as soon as possible.

As the Body Tempering Pill in Lin Yuan's abdomen continued to circulate and transform, providing nourishment and medicinal power to his skin, flesh, bones and muscles, he spared no effort and launched a full-scale attack. The more he fought, the more excited he became, his steps became more and more cunning, and his long fist attacks became faster and faster.

Xu Zhan discovered that Lin Yuan was like a snake, not only slippery but also extremely agile, making him impossible to catch. Even when he exerted all his strength, he still couldn't find an opportunity to clash with Lin Yuan.

If they get too close, it will make it easier for Lin Yuan to launch a sneak attack and counterattack.

Hearing the cheers from the audience, Lin Yuan realized that Xu Zhan was intentionally letting him perform to his heart's content.

Having grasped this meaning, he became completely absorbed in it, his movements as agile as a snake, his fists as sharp as a venomous snake's tongue, always able to strike unexpectedly and catch the opponent off guard.

The two exchanged more than ten moves. Lin Yuan once again circled around to the point of attack and unleashed the Taizu Long Fist: Tiger Emerging from Cave. However, the intent of his fist was more like the Python Emerging from Cave from Snake Intent Fist.

Under the guidance of Coach Hong, he had long since mastered both Changquan and Sheyiquan. In addition, he preferred the sneak attack style of Sheyiquan, so the style of Changquan gradually shifted towards Sheyiquan and eventually merged into one.

In other words, his fighting style is Changquan (Long Fist), but his Xingyi (Form and Meaning) is Snake Intent Fist.

Xu Zhan, having traveled extensively and possessing rich combat experience, predicted the trajectory of the tiger's punch and directly met it with a palm strike. He aimed to meet Lin Yuan's attack head-on, hoping to suppress Lin Yuan's frenzied offensive and slow down the pace of the fight.

Xu Zhan wanted to gain control of the competition and steer it in a rhythm he was familiar with.

In the blink of an eye, a fist and a palm passed each other, but the fist moved like a snake, twisting its position midway, and Xu Zhan's palm just grazed past it.

Missed!

Xu Zhan immediately realized something was wrong and quickly pulled back to avoid hitting his heart, but he still took a punch to his right shoulder.

He took three steps back before regaining his balance.

"Great!" The tea drinkers in the audience finally saw something exciting and cheered.

This is the suite number 61 on the third floor.

Liang Yingxiao finished his tea, glanced at the arena, and suddenly chuckled, "Oh, are you serious?"

"This...it seems to really be true..."

"That's more like it! Fixing matches every day is so boring!" Liang Yingxiao suddenly became interested. "Tell the waiter to bring another pot of tea."

"Alright, a good show deserves good tea!"

……

On the arena.

Xu Zhan felt pain in his right shoulder, but fortunately he had absorbed much of the force of the punch. In addition, his physical strength was higher and his shoulder bones had a stronger ability to withstand the impact, otherwise he would have been lying down just now.

He suddenly realized that Lin Yuan was not like someone who had only been learning martial arts for a year. His movements and moves were too experienced, even stronger than his own, like a veteran martial arts master who had been practicing for more than ten years.

He dared not be careless and did his best to deal with the situation. He quickly circled around to create distance and rotated his shoulders to relieve the pain.

Lin Yuan heard the cheers from the audience and realized that his performance was not bad. He suddenly admired Xu Zhan very much. As expected of a professional ranking master, his performance was excellent.

If his opponent could act so well, he couldn't be outdone by Xu Zhan, so he pressed on and used the Eight Steps to Catch the Cicada technique to pursue him with all his might. Although it was supposed to be an Eight Directions Straight Step, it made him feel like he was using a snake-like footwork, closing in on Xu Zhan in an instant.

Having learned his lesson once, and with pain in his right shoulder, Xu Zhan didn't want to fight back. He made a feigned response and continued to retreat.

As soon as he stepped back, the tea drinkers below shouted, "Master Xu, go up! Why are you stepping back!"

The tea drinkers seemed unfazed, as if they were watching a melon seed unfold with a vengeance.

Lin Yuan continued his pursuit, twisting three steps before delivering a three-step punch.

The arena wasn't very big to begin with, and the two reached the edge of the arena after only three moves.

Xu Zhan was unable to shake off the attack and was stuck at the edge of the ring, unable to escape. He was already struggling to keep up with Lin Yuan's punches.

But Lin Yuan's fists remained as powerful as ever. With his eyes closed and his fists open, he could unleash his full power. With the continuous supply of medicinal power and nourishment from the pills, he could fight for several more hours.

At this moment, the surrounding tea drinkers started shouting, "Take it down!"

"Take it down!"

Hearing the tea drinkers making a fuss, Xu Zhan suddenly regretted not secretly taking some pills before going on stage.

Otherwise, they wouldn't be in such a predicament now.

However, he suddenly realized that being stuck at the edge of the ring wasn't a bad thing, because Lin Yuan couldn't get around him anymore, and he could face Lin Yuan head-on. The space in front of him was only so big, and the defensive area was very small.

If it weren't for the pain in his right shoulder that prevented him from using his full strength, he might have even had a chance to force Lin Yuan back with his power and skill level.

Being stuck on the edge is shameful, but it's actually advantageous for him.

Seeing that he couldn't get around the enemy, Lin Yuan suddenly had a flash of inspiration and used a long fist left-handed cloud-piercing move as a feint.

In an instant, another right-handed cloud-piercing strike landed directly on Xu Zhan's face.

Xu Zhan had no choice but to bite the bullet and block it, but he was also knocked back by the force of the punch and instantly flew off the ground.

He fell off the ring.

At this moment, all the tea drinkers stood up and cheered for Lin Yuan:

"good!"

"Young Master Lin is truly awe-inspiring!"

"..."

Lin Yuan scratched his head. Wasn't it agreed that the outcome would be decided in three hundred moves?

Why did he leave the ring after only a few dozen moves?

Was he not deliberately feigning weakness, but actually just bad at the game?

But he's clearly at a higher level than me, so how come he can't beat me?

This made Lin Yuan feel like he had bought ten minutes of service, but the service only lasted half an hour. What a loss!

The key point is that it seems he could have easily saved those six hundred taels of silver!

More importantly, Lin Yuan had exhausted all the favors he had made.

The only consolation is that I am not weak, and may even be somewhat strong; I just lack the experience of competing with others and do not have a clear understanding of my own abilities.

Xu Zhan got up from the ground, feeling both angry and annoyed. He felt he had lost face, especially in front of Li Silang.

Fortunately, the effect was unexpectedly good, and all the tea drinkers enjoyed watching it.

But the clown is himself!

Adhering to the professional standards of a chart-topping player, he immediately stood up, clasped his hands in a fist salute, and said, "Young Master Lin's movements are skillful and his punches are powerful; I am no match for him! Today I realize that there are mountains beyond mountains, and heavens beyond heavens; I underestimated this young hero from the abyss..."

"You flatter me!" Lin Yuan clasped his hands in greeting, momentarily at a loss for words.

Hu Cai and Zhao Sheng ran onto the stage, surrounded him, and occasionally raised their fists to signal to the surroundings.

At this moment, the professional storyteller also stepped onto the stage and shouted: "Today, Young Hero Lin has defeated Young Hero Xu and become the eighty-ninth on the Tiger List of Lizhou!"

Young Master Lin invites everyone to have tea, and the innkeeper has prepared a pot of pre-Qingming Golden Bud tea for each table.

Upon hearing that it was pre-Qingming golden buds, Lin Yuan immediately worried that the company might go bankrupt.

But after careful calculation, he realized that after several hundred tables, a few dozen taels of tea would be enough, and it seemed that he could afford to buy this pre-Qingming tea.

Fortunately, this time he made it onto the Tiger List, so the preliminary procedures for Qiu Bi are complete.

All we have to do now is wait for the autumn competition in August.
