Zheng Yubai didn't expect that an ordinary meeting would turn into an internal fight within Xingyiquan because of him.
The two respected predecessors, Li Chengxiu and Guo Chengming, were still dizzy. The representatives of the other twelve branches were whispering. Although they did not clearly state their positions, they were obviously on the side of Sun Yunqing.
My father and Sun Yunqing had already made it clear that if my father lost, he would no longer use Xingyiquan.
Looking at this chaotic situation, Zheng Yubai still had a question in his mind. Why were the Sun family father and son so clear about their actions? Where did they get the information from? There must be someone who knew Black Star Company well who leaked the information to them. Who was this person
For some reason, Zheng Yubai suddenly felt that he had fallen into a trap set by someone, just like prey stuck in a spider's web, and he didn't know when he would be hunted by the spider that was watching him closely.
However, sometimes, if a spider web is stuck with an insect that is stronger than the spider, then the spider and its web will be destroyed. This kind of thing is common in nature, and it is not surprising in Zheng Yubai's experience.
"Zheng Yubai, do you dare to fight with me?" A voice woke Zheng Yubai from his speculation. It was Sun Haitong.
"You?" Zheng Yubai felt a little surprised to see his defeated opponent challenging him.
"If you lose to me, you are not allowed to use Xingyiquan in the future!" Sun Haitong said viciously.
"It doesn't matter. If you want to fight, come on." Zheng Yubai really didn't care. He suddenly felt that it was boring to hang out with these short-sighted, selfish and stubborn people.
Isn't there a saying that there must be something hateful about a pitiful person? The decline of martial arts to such an extent, isn't the character of those who practice martial arts one of the reasons? If such people always control the martial arts world, perhaps the demise of martial arts will have a more positive meaning for society.
The Xingyi Conference finally turned into a crusade against Zheng's father and son due to Sun Yunqing's deliberate guidance. With many "fellow disciples" as witnesses, the duel between Sun's father and son and Zheng's father and son is about to begin.
The competition was held in the martial arts training hall of the martial arts hall. All outsiders were driven away, leaving only representatives from the sixteen branches.
Li Chengxiu and Guo Chengming were still dizzy, so everyone unanimously elected another senior brother, Sun Chengdao, as the referee.
According to the rules of Xingyiquan, if you violate the rules, there are several ways to punish you. The most serious one is to be hunted down by the entire sect, and the second is the torture of three knives and six holes. As for joining the underworld and doing evil, the punishment can be serious or minor. In serious cases, you will be expelled from the sect and have your martial arts abolished, and in minor cases, you will be whipped.
However, the Zheng family father and son obviously did not intend to go through any procedural procedures. Zheng Jingzhe crossed his arms and stood in the middle of the martial arts hall with an arrogant look. Since he had already said that he would quit Xingyiquan, it was a firm decision and there was no possibility of change. The most important thing for people in the martial arts world is face and credit. If you say something but cannot do it, you will not be able to survive.
Sun Yunqing changed into a short-collared outfit, looking energetic. This Xingyi Conference was held to build momentum for the election of the Secretary General of the Wushu Association and to deal with the Zheng family father and son, who were thorns in his eyes. A friend of Sun Haitong provided a lot of information about Zheng Yubai, which he used as a trump card. As expected, he forced the Zheng family father and son to withdraw from the sect. Sun Yunqing was very proud.
"Are you ready?" Zheng Jingzhe asked impatiently, "I'll give you a chance to avenge your past. If you win, I'll return all the weapons you lost to me."
Although the atmosphere was tense, Zheng Jingzhe's words still caused a burst of laughter. Sun Yunqing's face was completely hurt by Zheng Jingzhe. Unless he could win this battle, he would be laughed at behind his back in the future.
However, Sun Yunqing was very good at cultivating his Qi, and although he couldn't hold back his pride, he still said slowly, "Why are you in such a hurry? The younger generation still have a fight to do. Let them go first."
Zheng Jingzhe looked at Sun Haitong who was eager to try, and couldn't help but laugh: "Okay, let my Yu Bai deal with your brat first. I want to see what this defeated general of yours can do."
Sun Yunqing sneered and whispered to Sun Haitong, "Don't hold back, strike with thunder."
Sun Haitong nodded and walked to the center of the martial arts training ground. He waved to Zheng Yubai behind Zheng Jingzhe and said, "Come on."
"Son, fight for me. If you win, I won't bother with you about joining the underworld. Otherwise, I'll break your legs!" Zheng Yubai was about to fight when he heard his father's threat.
"Alas... Is there a father like this?" Zheng Yubai came to the field with this question. Two young masters of Xingyiquan were facing each other, preparing to start a fight that concerned their reputation and future.
"Zheng Yubai, today I want to avenge my previous defeat." Although Sun Haitong had lost to Zheng Yubai before, he now seems quite confident.
Zheng Yubai said indifferently: "Come on, don't waste time with so much nonsense."
Sun Haitong's face darkened, and he shouted, "Well, I'll show you my new moves." As he spoke, his feet suddenly started moving. In just half a blink of an eye, he had already swept over like the wind, and punched hard. The force of the fist had already reached the body before it arrived, and it was even powerful enough to tear the air apart. It was indeed a lot better than the previous fight.
Although Zheng Yubai didn't seem to care about the match, he had already entered a state where he could adjust his body to the best condition at any time. As soon as Sun Haitong made a move, he responded. The power of the cannon fist was like a tornado, and Zheng Yubai's body was like a leaf in the wind, dancing with the wind, so fast that people couldn't catch its trajectory.
Zheng Yubai dodged Sun Haitong's attack just in time, and with his strange steps, he dodged to the side of Sun Haitong's blind spot.
"Beautiful!" Except for Sun Yunqing who was leaning towards his child, everyone present could not help but secretly admire in their hearts. They were all masters of Xingyiquan, and they knew how difficult it was to do this. The reason why the world-renowned Grandmaster Shang Yunxiang was always victorious in the competition was that he could always seize the opponent's blind spot at the critical moment. This footwork looks simple, but it is actually very difficult to do. Therefore, after watching Shang Yunxiang compete, some people praised his reaction and speed as unparalleled in the world.
Although Zheng Yubai's move could not be said to have reached Shang Yunxiang's level, it was still quite powerful. With one light and skillful step, he not only resolved Sun Haitong's attack, but also seized a favorable position, ready to deliver a fatal blow at any time.
Without holding back at all, Zheng Yubai threw a powerful punch straight at Sun Haitong's chest. This punch carried 70% of its power and hit with a spiral force. If it hit, Sun Haitong would fall down immediately even if he was a cow.
Unexpectedly, Sun Haitong was no longer the Wuxia A'mon of that day. Seeing this Ji Beng fist attacking from an angle that he could not resist, he seemed to have eyes on both sides of his body. He moved his body slightly, took a big step, and jumped out diagonally.
"Dragon-Shaped Bone Search!" Someone couldn't help but scream. This move was one of the three ultimate moves of Xingyiquan. Even the masters of the sixteen branches might not be able to master it. But at this moment, Sun Haitong easily performed it to avoid Zheng Yubai's attack. The two young juniors showed their superb strength one after another, which made the representatives of other branches secretly shocked.
Zheng Yubai knew the Dragon Shape Bone Search very well, because he also knew this move. When he saw Sun Haitong disappear, he knew that things were not going well. After a few months, Sun Haitong had indeed made great progress. In the past, he had a good strength in the ring, but it was a pity that he was too conceited and lost to Zheng Yubai. Now he has been training hard and has practiced the Dragon Shape Bone Search to the point where he can do it at will. He was able to avoid Zheng Yubai's punch because of his hard work.
The two of them were attacking and hiding, and it looked like a game of hide-and-seek, with no direct confrontation. But the knowledgeable people were thrilled, knowing that if there was a slight deviation in one step, someone would have fallen. Zheng Yubai and Sun Haitong were like two dancers dancing on a tightrope, moving back and forth like butterflies, and although their punches were powerful, they were difficult to hit. This kind of competition is rare in Xingyiquan competitions.
The two fought for more than ten rounds, and finally found an opportunity to fight. Zheng Yubai used large and small silk threads to grab Sun Haitong's joints. Sun Haitong also responded with short kung fu such as monkey fanning and wild donkey lying. The two fought for a few times, but except for the soreness of the arm, they didn't get any advantage.
Zheng Yubai stretched out his hand to grab Sun Haitong's elbow. The last time the two of them fought, Sun Haitong suffered a loss due to Zheng Yubai's acupuncture. This time he did not dare to be negligent. He raised his hand and swung to block Zheng Yubai's hand, then chopped with his fist at the same time, attacking Zheng Yubai's temple.
This was a very vicious move. If he was hit, his life would be in danger. Zheng Yubai didn't want to give him a chance and dodged. At this moment, Sun Haitong turned half-way and stabbed at the throat with a punch, using the punch as a sword stab, and hit Zheng Yubai's throat.
Zheng Yubai was startled and broke into a cold sweat. He took a half step back, avoiding Sun Haitong's attack range. But he didn't expect Sun Haitong to use the momentum of the attack to push his upper body forward, and kicked out with his back foot, hitting Zheng Yubai's shin. Zheng Yubai felt a pain in his shin, and it was too late to dodge. After Sun Haitong kicked with his back foot, his front foot also followed up like a whirlwind, and his body turned sideways in the air and kicked Zheng Yubai's left rib again.
He was hit by two kicks with such force that even though Zheng Yubai was strong, he couldn't hold on and fell backwards.
"What a great three-step water-diving move by the swallow!" Li Chengxiu and Guo Chengming came to watch the fight at some point. They exclaimed in admiration when they saw Sun Haitong's beautiful two kicks. They were easily defeated by the Zheng family father and son, and they were humiliated. Of course, they hated them to the core. Seeing Zheng Yubai suffer a loss, they were naturally delighted.
Although both kicks hit the target, Sun Haitong was not happy. He landed steadily on the ground and turned around to chase him, but he saw Zheng Yubai had already stood up and stretched out his fists, obviously not giving him any chance to take advantage.
"Is he made of iron?" Sun Haitong was secretly shocked. This unique skill of the three-point water-skipping move in the swallow form was a new move that he had practiced for two months. After thousands of trainings, he could even break a 40-centimeter-diameter wooden stake. If such a force hit an ordinary person, seven or eight ribs would be broken. But seeing that Zheng Yubai did not seem to be seriously injured, Sun Haitong was very disappointed.
In fact, Zheng Yubai was seriously injured, he was just holding on. At least three ribs on the left side were broken, and every breath hurt. If there was a fierce fight, it would probably cause more intense pain. As for the tibia, it had no feeling. If Sun Haitong chased immediately, Zheng Yubai knew he would definitely lose.
Fortunately, Sun Haitong gave Zheng Yubai a few seconds to catch his breath, and during this moment, his four eyes opened up the world of inner vision. Zheng Yubai urged his inner strength to impact the congested muscles, and used a large amount of strength to wrap around the injured bones to relieve the pain.
After a little treatment, Zheng Yubai was able to continue fighting. However, he was not sure how long he could last in such a high-intensity confrontation. If Sun Haitong continued to attack, perhaps the fight would end soon.
Sun Haitong finally couldn't hold back anymore. He had the upper hand and had no reason not to continue the pursuit. Like a whirlwind, Sun Haitong attacked again. This time, he used a punch that was more probing than offensive. He mainly relied on his footsteps to confuse Zheng Yubai's sight. His hands made false and real movements. If he found that Zheng Yubai was at the end of his strength, he would immediately launch a thunderous attack. And if Zheng Yubai still had the ability to resist, he could also look for opportunities to slowly fight.
Sun Haitong's calculations were good, and Zheng Yubai was no pushover either. Seeing Sun Haitong approaching, Zheng Yubai knew that he only had one chance. His rib injury made it impossible for him to fight for a long time. If he didn't want to lose, success or failure would depend on this one round.
The punch came at Zheng Yubai's face, but he didn't move. Sun Haitong was secretly happy, thinking that the Swallow Three Water-Crossing Technique was indeed powerful and hit him so hard that he couldn't move. But when the fist was about to hit Zheng Yubai's face, the target disappeared.
"Dragon Shape Bone Search!" This was the second time that everyone present saw the Dragon Shape Bone Search being performed. The first time was by Sun Haitong, and this time it was Zheng Yubai.
Zheng Yubai felt a sharp pain in his ribs as he leaped out with a big stride. He endured the pain and swung his hands violently. His body moved in the shape of a dragon, but his hands used the skill of a snake. He skillfully combined the two forms into one, which just fit the meaning of dragon and snake as one.
There is an old saying that goes, "You can see the head of a dragon but not its tail." This means that it is difficult to see the dragon's shadow when it is flying, because the dragon hides its body in the clouds, so it is difficult for people to see its entire appearance. The dragon-shaped body movement has reached the extreme level, which is exactly the state of being able to see the head of a dragon but not its tail. Compared with the dragon-shaped bone search that Zheng Yubai did just now, the difference in realm is more than a million miles. If you insist on making an analogy, it is like a world champion racing against an elementary school student.
Li Chengxiu and Guo Chengming hated Zheng Yubai to the core, but they were dumbfounded when they saw his shocking move. One of them was in his seventies and the other was in his sixties. They had been practicing Xingyiquan for more than fifty years, but they had never understood the dragon form as thoroughly as Zheng Yubai, a young man, in their lives. All the major branches of Xingyiquan thought they had mastered the most authentic Xingyiquan. Once they had some experience, they would treasure it and think they had obtained some great treasure. In fact, they had been left far behind by the times without knowing it, and became pitiful frogs in the well.
As for Zheng Yubai's current move, it was first learned by Zheng Jingzhe from his predecessors. After careful study, he combined the essence of three other schools of Kung Fu and the mysteries of boxing footwork, which led to a breakthrough and the achievement of this new dragon-shaped footwork. With the help of the four-eyed double pupil, Zheng Yubai not only practiced the dragon-shaped bone-searching footwork learned from Zheng Jingzhe to perfection, but also added some tricks from the flying eaves technique and the bone-shrinking technique, and even the way of moving strength in the gambling technique. It is precisely because of the strengths of various schools that this exquisite footwork can be performed.
Sun Haitong felt a flash before his eyes, and Zheng Yubai was gone. He glanced around, but there was no one there either. Just as he was wondering, a powerful fist blew from behind, hitting him on the back of the head. Sun Haitong's head buzzed, and he fell backwards, unconscious.
Zheng Yubai succeeded in his attack and gasped for breath. He had used too much force and his ribs were in great pain. He could hardly hold on. If he failed to knock Sun Haitong unconscious, he would be the loser. Because in his current physical condition, it was impossible for him to use such exquisite footwork as before.
The situation took a turn for the worse. Sun Haitong had the upper hand by using the Swallow Three Water-scooping Skill. However, Zheng Yubai unexpectedly used the Dragon-Shaped Bone-Searching Footwork in the midst of defeat, and the balance of victory and defeat between the two sides instantly changed. Even if Sun Haitong wanted to warn him, it was too late. He could only watch his son lose to Zheng Yubai again.
"Haha, he is worthy of being my son. How's the saying? A dragon gives birth to a dragon, a phoenix gives birth to a phoenix, and a mouse's son will dig holes. My son is just like me and he never loses a battle. As for someone's son, he is doomed to lose." Zheng Jingzhe laughed.
The faces of the onlookers were all very ugly. Just based on the quick fights between Zheng Yubai and Sun Haitong, everyone already knew how strong Zheng Yubai was. Among the dozen people present, not to mention those who could be compared with Zheng Yubai, there were not many who could even compare with Sun Haitong. They had been stubborn for many years, and suddenly they realized that they were far behind. This kind of blow is simply fatal to the people in the martial arts world. So most of them were secretly crying in their hearts, thinking about how to catch up by leaps and bounds. As for whether the Zheng family father and son violated the rules of the sect, and whether there was any grudge between them and the Sun family, they didn't care at all.
"We still have one more fight." Sun Yunqing said coldly. He asked someone to carry the unconscious Sun Haitong back to rest, and walked to the center of the martial arts training ground with his head held high.
Zheng Jingzhe came to him without hesitation, hooked his little finger at him and said, "Sun Yunqing, I have been wanting to beat you up again for a long time, and today I finally got the chance. If it hurts later, don't cry."
Sun Yunqing sneered, "If you have the ability, just come on. This is the last time you will use Xingyiquan in your life, so enjoy it."
"Hehe, you are quite good at boasting. Then let me see how much you have improved over the years." As Zheng Jingzhe spoke, he pounced forward like a tiger and attacked with both hands and feet at the same time, like an octopus.
Compared with the fight between the two juniors just now, the fight between Zheng Jingzhe and Sun Yunqing can be said to be a hard fight from the beginning. Every punch of Zheng Jingzhe made a muffled sound in the air, almost comparable to the sound of the best Tongbi boxer. And Sun Yunqing's small movements were also unique. In a small space, he could not only fight with Zheng Jingzhe, but also sometimes use exquisite footwork. One of them was fierce and fierce, and the other was soft but strong. Every move they made was full of the demeanor of a master.
After watching the battle between Zheng Yubai and Sun Haitong, the representatives of each branch were stimulated and then suffered another huge blow when they saw the fight between these two people in front of them.
Li Chengxiu murmured: "How is this possible? When did they become so powerful?"
Guo Chengming's eyes widened, and he almost shed tears. The two of them now realized that it was not shameful to be defeated by the Zheng family father and son, because their strength was completely on a different level.
With a slashing punch, Sun Yunqing attacked Zheng Jingzhe's head. Zheng Jingzhe did not dodge, but raised his fingers, and stabbed at Sun Yunqing's face.
Although the Ox-like move is a small move, Xingyiquan practitioners have tremendous strength in their hands. Zheng Jingzhe's fingers have at least five hundred kilograms of strength. If it were stabbed in the face, it would probably cause immediate bleeding and disfigurement, which is not much different from being hit by a cow's horns.
Seeing the finger coming towards his face, Sun Yunqing, who still had to participate in the election, did not dare to neglect it. He ducked his body and lowered his head, thus avoiding it. At the same time, he half turned his body and suddenly jumped up.
This jab was very particular, it was the ape-like move in Xingyiquan. The ape-like move was a move that Niu Xiang mastered naturally after he became familiar with the opponent, and it used the momentum between the rise and fall of the body to attack the opponent. When he jabbed, the power of his fist was very strong. Fortunately, Zheng Jingzhe dodged quickly and passed by his chest, otherwise he would have been hit on the chin and would have lost his fighting ability immediately.
While Zheng Jingzhe dodged Sun Yunqing's ape-elephant punch, he also kept on attacking, raising his knee suddenly, which was a monkey seal in a short fight. The knee was a hard bone, more powerful than a fist, and when it was raised, it was like a big seal, pressing against the Tanzhong point between Sun Yunqing's two chests that had just risen.
The Danzhong acupoint is a vital point of the human body. If it is hit, the person will suffocate and faint, or die on the spot. Seeing that the situation was not good, Sun Yunqing slipped and floated backwards, barely avoiding it. While floating, he raised his hand and punched, blocking Zheng Jingzhe's retreat.
The two's series of fierce fights were dazzling. Although Zheng Yubai had four pupils, he couldn't keep up with their movements. He saw that the two used every part of their bodies, and every move was a killing move. There was defense in the offense, and offense in the defense. They could often use the opponent's offense and defense to create opportunities for themselves. This was not just a competition of fists and feet, but more of an intellectual confrontation.
"This is real martial arts." Zheng Yubai's mood was agitated as he watched, and suddenly he felt that his eyes were suddenly clear, as if he had entered a new realm. (To be continued)
