Chapter 861: Martial Arts
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
In the martial arts circle, there was a lot of emphasis on seniority as whoever came first was more senior and also had stronger abilities.
Wang Yu’s cupping of his fist was a greeting meant for peers of the same seniority. As the next leader of the martial arts world, and also a top expert who outdid his ancestors, no one alive could be more senior than Wang Yu. Hence, for Wang Yu to greet Liang Zhenyun as a peer, he was already giving Liang Zhenyun enough respect.
However, Liang Zhenyun saw that Wang Yu was only in his twenties and yet, dared to address him as a peer so he was somewhat upset.
“Haha!”
Wang Yu was not petty so he did not take Liang Zhenyun’s words to heart. He just smiled and continued to speak to Li Jian.
Liang Zhenyun saw how Wang Yu dared to ignore him and so, got even angrier. He did not go along with it and asked, “What did you say about your realm?”
“I just exceeded the Grandmaster realm.” Wang Yu did not humble himself and said again patiently.
“HAHAHA, what a huge bragger. How arrogant!” Liang Zhenyun did not mind Li Jian’s face anymore and directly clashed with Wang Yu.
The Grandmaster realm was a high point which most martial artists cannot reach in their entire lifetime. Even the four head of household for the four big families were only in the Grandmaster realm, so how capable did this young lad have to be such that he dared to claim that he had exceeded the Grandmaster realm?
“Oh...” Wang Yu nodded then asked Li Jian, “Where is the gym? I am intending to solidify my realm.”
“Erm...” Li Jian did not think that Wang Yu had such a good temper that he could avoid a direct clash. This way, he would not be able to achieve his initial aim?
Of course, Li Jian could not egg on Wang Yu to fight with Liang Zhenyun so he told Wang Yu, “Seems like brother Wang is very anxious. I’ll bring you and your wife there now.” As he spoke, Li Jian was about to bring Wang Yu and Mu Zixian in.
Just then, Liang Zhenyun did not hold back and said, “Chairman Li, you don’t need to treat him so nicely. He is a conman.”
Actually, Wang Yun and Liang Zhenyun were both Li Jian’s guests so he did not want to kick a fuss and hence, he ignored Liang Zhenyun’s multiple provocations. Now that Liang Zhenyun directly called him a conman, no matter how good Wang Yu’s temper was, he still got angry.
“Mr Liang, we have no animosity. Why speak of me like this?” Wang Yu frowned and said.
Liang Zhenyun coldly said, “Hengheng, today’s weak state of martial arts is due to those conmen’s actions back then. Seeing people like you makes it unbearable.”
“On what basis do you think I’m a conman?” Wang Yu could not hold back his anger.
Wang Yu also extremely hated those who used martial arts to con others. Now that he was accused to be one of them, Wang Yu was extremely agitated.
Li Jian quickly tried to mediate, “Mr Liang, Brother Wang has really strong abilities.”
“Hmph, what strong abilities? Do you dare to exchange some moves with me?” Liang Zhenyun asked while staring at Wang Yu provocatively.
Wang Yu shook his head and said, “As a martial artist, we should not fight for self-purpose. Before I left home, my elders did remind me.”
“See, he exposed himself.” Liang Zhenyun saw how Wang Yu did not dare to take him on, he looked at Li Jian with a smile.
Li Jian was really puzzled as he had seen Wang Yu’s skills but since he did not agree to fight, was he really incapable? That was not possible...
“So be it. I need to do my things. Little Li, please lead the way.” Wang Yu sighed and spoke to Li Jian.
Just then, Liang Zhenyun took a step and blocked Li Jian. He pointed his toes and used his cloth shoes to draw a straight line on the granite floor.
Seeing that, not only Li Jian, Wang Yu was also surprised.
Wang Yu had seen many experts who trained their legs but it was the first time he saw someone practice it to this standard. It was obvious that Liang Zhenyun was not weak. No wonder he was so arrogant.
Liang Zhenyun’s tip of his foot slid across the granite and drew a two-metre-long straight line in one go. He calmly told Wang Yu, “If you don’t finish a match with me, don’t think of crossing this line today.”
Wang Yu did not mind and said, “Alright, you won!”
Wang Yu urgently wanted to solidify his realm so he did not have the energy to waste on him.
“If you lose, please leave now. Or else, even if you are Chairman Li’s friend, I won’t allow a conman to con others in the name of martial arts.”
“You!!” In the face of Liang Zhenyun’s rudeness, Wang Yu was furious. Just then, Mu Zixian tugged Wang Yu’s sleeves and said, “Fight him!”
“But...” Wang Yu was about to say that he did not have time but Mu Zixian said, “I don’t like him.”
“...”
Wang Yu kept quiet for a while then stared at Liang Zhenyun and said, “Alright then, Mr Liang, please start.”
As Wang Yu said, he stepped on the line Liang Zhenyun drew as an act to show he accepted Liang Zhen Yun’s challenge.
Liang Zhenyun saw Wang Yu dared to take him on and was shocked for a while, then he closed his eyes and told Wang Yu, “What a brave young man. I shan’t bully a young man. I’ll let you have three moves first.
Wang Yu replied, “I am still young, I should let Mr Liang go first. Mr Liang, please go ahead.”
“Alright then, I shan’t go easy!” Liang Zhenyun said he would let Wang Yu go first but his body said otherwise. When he spoke, he was already kicking towards Wang Yu.
Martial arts being less prominent was not all bad. Now, there were fewer martial artist conmen and those who knew martial arts were upright.
Liang Zhenyun was also so. It would be logical as whoever hired a prominent teacher like Li Jian at such a high price could not that weak.
Liang Zhenyun’s legs skills were just like the one he used to draw the line. It was sharp and aggressive and contained great strength. Li Jian and Mu Zixian could even feel the pressure from afar.
“Samurai kick!”
Wang Yu focused on it, stepped his right leg forward into a stance then used his right hand to go against Liang Zhenyun’s ankle.
When the fist and leg clashed, Wang Yu instantly felt a surge of strength come. When he let go, he moved back half a metre to mitigate the incoming power. Liang Zhenyun’s first kick was dodged.
“Oh? Some abilities you have?” Liang Zhenyun was stunned for a bit but his leg did not stop. He turned around and his other leg extended to Wang Yu’s head and landed towards it.
Wang Yu changed his horse stance into a tiger stance, ready to use his fist. He lifted his palm and caught Liang Zhen Yun’s attack, pulling it down, while retreating another half a metre to escape Liang Zhenyun’s second kick.
[Samurai’s Kick] belonged to a set of very fierce martial arts as one move came after another. When they were in momentum, they would continue without stopping. After two kicks, Liang Zhenyun’s moves were warmed up but seeing how Wang Yu also blocked the second kick, Liang Zhen Yun did a flip in midair, used both hands to press again the ground, then kicked backwards with both legs, sending two legs towards Wang Yu simultaneously.
Wang Yu did not disperse his strength. Instead, he used two fists to punch the centre of both Liang Zhenyun’s feet.
Wang Yu retreated another half a metre while Liang Zhenyun was sent three to four metres away by Wang Yu.
Liang Zhenyun flipped and landed on the ground, wanting to attack again but he then realised that the line he drew below Wang Yu just now had disappeared.
