Chapter 3, A Match of Equals

Who is this person

I am a person who speaks civilly and understands etiquette, he said

Song Yue had an innocent expression: "Aren't we fighting? In a fight, isn't it all about who strikes faster, more accurately, and more fiercely? You don't think this is a friendly competition, do you?"

Song Yue staggered slightly but did not step back, while Meng Xudong took two steps back

Song Yue chuckled and humbly yet sincerely said, "No, no, I am just an ordinary person. I can only manage against someone like you. I am not a match for anyone more formidable."

A young man stepped forward and coldly said, "Eat? I will make you unable to eat in no time!"

Is this being modest?

I dare not think any further

But he knew that the other party had shown mercy.

At the Elite Martial Arts School, a handsome young man who appeared to be around eighteen or nineteen years old stopped his excited companions who were eager to rush forward. He squinted slightly and looked at Song Yue, saying, "I misjudged you; I didn't realize you had some skills."

This is completely disregarding them

Among the warriors, he has yet to encounter a rival of his age

The boy's cheeks quickly swelled up, yet Song Yue turned the slipper upside down, pressing the sole against the boy's bleeding nose, and loudly asked: "Does this smell good? Is it pleasant or not?"

Seeing him like this now is simply too refreshing

A group of elite martial arts school youths immediately became furious

He suddenly frowned and turned to Wenrou, asking, "What time is it?"

With a crackling sound, the vital energy surged outward, transforming the entire demeanor into something entirely different, akin to a tiger unleashed from its cage

Those with the surname Song have always been so shameless, expecting them to talk to you about rules? That is a dream!

Eighteen or nineteen-year-old youth

Sweat streamed down in torrents, soaking the front and back of the tank top, clinging to the body and revealing a remarkably muscular physique

Such an opponent, if one becomes complacent, may indeed suffer losses

If a warrior does not possess the spirit of being the best in the world, what kind of warrior can he be

Meng Xudong : `` ... ... ''

I can handle this kind of thing myself

In the next moment, he quickened his pace, darting left and right, continuously searching for the weaknesses in Song Yue's body

He then approached Song Yue, assuming a starting posture, but before he could speak again, Song Yue suddenly raised his leg and delivered a kick, directly striking the boy in the abdomen and sending him flying to the ground

It may even be slightly stronger than him

His attitude further incited the anger of a group of elite martial arts school youths

Yet Song Yue and Meng Xudong, five minutes later, were still engaged in combat with extremely high speed and tremendous force

There is a kind of serf who quickly sings after rising up

What does it mean that only you can hit?

He does not like scheming martial artists

Otherwise, winning will lead to arrogance, while losing will result in dejection

A group of people from the Cultivation Academy appeared pale and trembling, feeling weak, helpless, and pitiful

Song Yue turned around, exhaled a breath, and revealed a smile that was neither fully a smile nor a frown on his face: "Is it pleasant?"

The other elite martial arts schools' members were also stunned there

They have never encountered someone so disregardful of the rules

The figures of both parties are also becoming increasingly swift

In a typical fight among ordinary people, the initial few moments may be fueled by adrenaline, but usually, noticeable signs of physical fatigue begin to appear in less than one minute

Brute force in fierce collision

The key is that there is a growing sense of mutual appreciation, and naturally, one would not commit the taboo of attacking the opponent's vital points

Discussing rules with Song Yue

According to Song Yue's original temperament, at such a time, he would definitely take a harsh approach, giving the other party a lesson to make them remember it

He had also considered challenging those martial arts schools, but the master advised him that the time was not yet right. He should wait until his temperament had completely stabilized before attempting to challenge them, so that he would not be too greatly affected.

Ultimately, at the seven-minute mark, the vital energy emanating from Meng Xudong began to diminish and weaken

However, this battle brought him immense benefits, so at the final moment, when Meng Xudong revealed an irreparable flaw, he merely used his shoulder to push him back a few steps and then withdrew his hand

Song Yue spoke casually

This is incredibly frustrating

Monkey Fist, Tiger Pounce, Whip Kick

They are each searching for weaknesses in one another.

Everyone: "... ..."

Meng Xudong glared with both eyes, let out a low growl, and moved with the swiftness of a leopard, crouching as he launched an attack towards Song Yue.

For Song Yue, he had no deep-seated grievances with the other party, and this person did not seem as sharp-tongued as the young man he had just encountered

The strength of the other party is by no means inferior to his

Moreover, with this initial gesture, a series of popping sounds akin to those of roasting beans continuously emanated from his body

Little spicy chicken, you are launching a sneak attack

Song Yue inadvertently offended both sides with a single remark, yet he remained unconcerned, lazily gazing at the group of elite martial arts students across from him, and said: "Alright, matters between martial artists are best settled in action; let us see the true skills in our fists and feet. Who will be the first to step forward?"

Shameless!

Song Yue suddenly slapped his forehead and looked at Wen Rou again: "By the way, I just forgot to ask, which son of a gun made you cry?"

The means of attack also reflect the advantages of an academic approach, which can be described as rich in variety

Only then did they understand that every time Song Yue came to pick a fight, it was truly just to pick a fight, merely to bully them casually, and that it was not always going to be like this time...

The people at the Elite Academy are shocked, astonished, and find it hard to believe

The boy who stood up sneered and raised his eyebrows: "Sun the Thief, I am your grandfather! You are her brother? Just now, I even touched her face, it was really fragrant! So pleasant!"

Shameless

Until Song Yue, with a look of disdain, put away the slippers, noticing they were stained with blood, he immediately threw them onto the boy's face in disgust and simply went barefoot

What appears to be an unremarkable punch, at the moment when the two punches collide, emits an extremely dull sound

Whether you defeat me has nothing to do with the pursuit of gentleness

To deal with such an opponent, it is essential to provoke them into anger and irrationality, as this will create more opportunities.

Prior to this, he had just won the gold medal at the Under-20 World Championship

He can be considered quite composed, but when faced with this carefree and pretentious young man, he still feels an impulse to punch him in the face, leaving him with a blooming face full of peach blossoms

One foot is wearing a slipper, while the other foot is bare

Thus, he did not become angry out of shame due to failure. On the contrary, after calming down a bit, he looked at Song Yue with fervent eyes and said: "Brother, are you interested in joining the Elite Martial Arts Academy? I can have someone directly appoint you as a coach, how about that?"

The students of the training academy, who were originally burdened with heavy emotions and complex feelings, suddenly burst into a hearty laughter

They have suffered too much of this loss

In the past, Song Yue had sought out others for sparring, but he had never experienced such a thrilling fight before

However, the benefits of this competition are undeniable for both him and the opponent, and he believes that the opponent understands this principle as well

He walked out slowly, about three meters away from Song Yue, ensuring he would not be ambushed. He looked at Song Yue and said: "I am the one pursuing gentleness. They are all brothers who came with me. You are the gentle brother who stood up for your sister against us, which is understandable, but I must get my brothers back. Also, if I defeat you, you cannot obstruct my pursuit of her in the future"

The young boy curled his body like a shrimp, covering his stomach with both hands, his face covered in blood as he wailed loudly, followed by a fit of coughing and retching

A single punch was thrown, and unexpectedly, the sound of wind and thunder buzzed loudly

What is the need for cunning in someone who resolves issues with fists and feet all day long

Even if this young man is not weak, what difference does it make

Meng Xudong felt that he had already given enough importance to this opponent, yet as both sides began to employ their respective strategies, he still experienced a sense of powerlessness.

Song Yue rolled his eyes and said, "I am not interested. Furthermore, do not come looking for my sister in the future; you are not worthy of her."

Bang bang bang

The young man was directly stunned, his mind went blank, and he couldn't even react to what had happened

His expression became more cautious; the person before him was indeed a true master who concealed his abilities well

The scene is unbearable to witness

Then, in a flash, she picked up a slipper from one of her feet, rushed to the boy who had been kicked down, and began to slap him across the face with the slipper in a flurry of piapiapia sounds

"Well, you only have ten minutes. I need to go home for dinner at 11 o'clock. Wufu, you understand, if I don't eat, I'll be hungry," Song Yue explained with a serious expression, his tone carrying a hint of negotiation. "So to avoid wasting time, just send your strongest over directly. After the fight, I still need to go home for dinner, alright?"

This all happened so quickly that almost no one was able to react

Unlike those straightforward young warriors, who become hot-blooded with just a slight provocation, this one seems to possess a certain cunning.

Meng Xudong was not discouraged by this; he had seen many strong individuals, but the martial arts system was incredibly complex, and it was not sufficient to rely solely on brute strength.

Why have I never seen this before?

Song Yue looked at the other party and said, "I am here because you bullied her, causing her to cry and feel unhappy. Young man, it is acceptable to pursue a girl, but not in this manner. If the one with the bigger fist can simply take a woman away, then I have already taken many wives and concubines!"

Come on, your vital energy is well-contained, and you are already close to the master level, which makes you quite skilled. Let me see just how formidable you truly are

Why bother flirting with girls if you don't practice martial arts properly

Simply go and cultivate!

In the blink of an eye, the two sides have been engaged for over 5 minutes, which for an ordinary martial artist, is already beyond the limit of time.

A group of people at the training academy turned pale, realizing that the others had not been very serious just now; otherwise, their group of classmates would not have simply ended up bruised and crying.

Fierce as a lion, cunning as a fox, insidious as a snake

He is wearing a pair of very well-fitting training shoes

This allowed him to play with great enjoyment

The already damp hair now resembles a drenched chicken as if it has been soaked by rain

What he found most humiliating was that the other party was wearing a pair of slippers on their feet

The key lies in that overwhelming surge of energy; once it truly erupts, the entire person exudes an unstoppable momentum

Initially, the group of people at the elite martial arts school could still see the movements on both sides clearly, but soon they could no longer see them clearly

This fellow is quite interesting

In this city of Hangzhou, how could anyone possibly defeat the senior brother?

Song Yue was deep in thought

Thus, until today, upon encountering Meng Xudong, Song Yuecai finally felt a sense of having met a worthy opponent

Wenrou paused for a moment, glanced at the watch on her wrist, and said softly: "Ten fifty..."

The people here at the training academy are also unhappy

One by one, their faces revealed expressions of horror

The other elite martial arts schools are completely enraged

A teenager of eighteen or nineteen years old has a face full of black lines, pretending to be old with whom

If it weren't for the fact that we cannot defeat you, we would have torn you to shreds long ago

Mucus and tears mixed with fresh blood flowed down

Has this arrogant young man ever heard of the Elite Martial Arts Academy?

Song Yue still had a nonchalant demeanor as he looked at Meng Xudong and said, "Go ahead, I'm in a hurry to get home for dinner"

"You are a master! I am not as good as you!" Meng Xudong bent slightly at the waist, breathing heavily, his face showing a hint of pain. The intense pain throughout his body made him unable to help but frown, especially after the last collision, which nearly left him gasping for breath

Even so, the other party continued to press him, causing him immense pressure

Sadness

Just now, this young man was the most arrogant

Everyone: "... ..."

Those heroes who came for the sake of his parents treated him like a child while sparring with him, not genuinely fighting at all

Bang

Song Yue raised his hand and threw a punch in response

The senior master is indeed a gold medalist at the World Championships

Eat your grandmother's paw

The young man tilted his head back, his face filled with defiance and indignation, saying: "If you have the guts, go ahead and do it to me!"

So naive

Meng Xudong also assumed a starting posture, but unlike the young man who had just been bewildered by Song Yue's series of moves, his starting posture contained several variations, leaving no opportunity for Song Yue to launch a surprise attack

His martial arts skills are exceptionally solid, and he does not follow a purely aggressive approach; he is a prodigy in martial arts training

Only those practitioners who have reached a high level are truly qualified to look down upon the cultivation of martial artists

In the past, they were always filled with grievances and anger, but today, it has finally changed

Both parties are keen to avoid each other's vulnerabilities, while Meng Xudong primarily focuses on discussing the rules

"What a relief!" Song Yue exclaimed

Yet, deep down, there is a sense of caution and some reflections; the Elite Martial Arts School truly deserves its reputation as the top martial arts institution in Hangzhou, with a profound heritage.

An outsider may not understand, but as someone who has been immersed in martial arts since childhood, a prodigy in the realm of martial practitioners, how could he not comprehend what this signifies

This little fellow in front of me seems to be about the same size as him, but his cultivation...! ... is actually almost catching up to his!

With a gentle pursing of her lips and remaining silent, her disposition is soft, and when faced with such matters, she feels too embarrassed to speak in public

Even forgot the important matter of returning home for dinner at 11 o'clock

Meng Xudong was directly amused by anger; even if the other party could see through his true cultivation at a glance, they should still be a formidable expert, but so what

If the other party is wearing the same shoes as him, then he may have already been defeated

Is this what people call human language
