When you do everything to the extreme

Wang Xiao looked at the middle-aged man, a hint of emotion flashing in her eyes.

The middle-aged man's Tiger Form Fist aura was clearly at its peak, and extremely profound and powerful. It was obvious that he had been at its peak for many years, and his body had been tempered by the Tiger Form Fist at the peak, making his blood, qi, bones and muscles extremely strong.

The Tiger Form Fist at its perfect level doesn't immediately increase one's strength; it only improves the efficiency of fist technique training and enhances the physical conditioning. However, a long period of continued training is still required to gradually improve overall physical fitness.

This is an internal martial art that can be practiced for a lifetime and one can continue to grow stronger.

This middle-aged man was just like that; his aura was incredibly powerful, and he stood there like a furnace.

Wang Xiao felt that he had indeed been a frog in a well, completely unaware of how many hidden masters existed in the world.

Especially now, after a century of development, martial arts have far surpassed the so-called golden age of Chinese martial arts a century ago.

To master a martial art to perfection was a rare skill even a hundred years ago, and such a skill would be recorded in ancient texts.

But now...

Wang Xiao had seen many people who had mastered one or even several martial arts styles to the point of perfection, a number far greater than a hundred years ago.

And that's not all!
"Master Wang came here with Master Yonghao of Shaolin Temple this time, so he must not be here for tourism, right?"

The middle-aged man spoke, his breath resonating through the air with each utterance, carrying a faint tiger's roar: "I am Ai Shang. These two are Yang Xiaoyu from the Yang family and Dong Yuexi from the Dong family, right? They are indeed outstanding individuals!"

The middle-aged man, Ai Shang, spoke with a hint of admiration, his eyes flashing with shock and surprise.

He mastered Tiger Form Fist ten years ago, which was already a remarkable achievement at the time, making him one of the top masters in the Ai family.

At this moment, he discovered that Yang Xiaoyu, despite her young age, already possessed the aura of a fierce tiger, and Dong Yuexi also had a strong aura of a fierce tiger, seemingly on the verge of achieving perfection at any time.

As for Wang Xiao...

The true meaning of the Flying White Tiger further signifies the breaking of the shackles of perfection.

Ai Shang felt as if she had fallen behind overnight and could no longer understand the world.

Add to that Yonghao, who also broke the shackles of perfection in the Arhat Fist...

Are young people these days so terrifyingly strong?

Perhaps it was the right choice for the Ai family to stay hidden in Changbai Mountain and not leave.

Yang Xiaoyu and Dong Yuexi both clasped their hands slightly to Ai Shang, acknowledging their greeting, but remained silent, leaving everything to Wang Xiao's discretion.

Wang Xiao smiled and said, "I came here today with Master Yonghao. I heard that when the Ai family ruled China, they collected a lot of advanced martial arts. So I came with Master Yonghao to borrow some of the Ai family's martial arts collection. Your Ai family's martial arts were also seized from many different schools and lineages back then. Now that we are borrowing them, it can be considered as collecting from the people and using them for the people!"

Wang Xiao's words made many members of the Ai family around him very uncomfortable.

Several young men and middle-aged men walked over, their expressions unfriendly.

Monk Yonghao put his hands together and said, "Benefactor Ai Shang, Master Wang and I have come here today to see Benefactor Ai Chengjun again to discuss the matter of returning my Shaolin martial arts."

Ai Shang showed no surprise, knowing that the two had come with ill intentions. He said calmly, "My older brother went hunting in the mountains and hasn't returned yet!"

Monk Yonghao immediately asked, "When will Benefactor Ai return?"

Ai Shang shook his head and replied, "I don't know. It might happen today, or it might take ten days or half a month. You can wait if you want."

Wang Xiao said calmly, "I don't have time to wait. Go and call them back."

Ai Shang looked at Wang Xiao: "Impossible. If you want to wait, then wait; if you don't want to wait, then leave. We don't have time to serve you."

Wang Xiao stared intently at Ai Shang: "No room for discussion?"

Ai Shang said in an unfriendly tone, "Master Wang, this is Northeast China, this is Changbai Mountain, not a place where you can do whatever you want."

A dozen or so people gradually gathered around, each with an impressive aura. Their internal martial arts skills were already quite advanced, and several of them had mastered the Tiger Form Fist. They also displayed the auras of other martial arts styles.

Clearly, everyone here is formidable; they are the elite of the Ai family's martial arts lineage, capable of leading their own schools and teaching students outside.

but……

In Wang Xiao's eyes, it was nothing special.

Before Yonghao could speak, Wang Xiao interrupted, "Hand over all the Shaolin martial arts, and we'll leave immediately!"

Ai Shang gave a cold laugh: "Impossible!"

Wang Xiao chuckled and said, "Anyway, you stole them back then, so why do you still see them as so important now, as if they were your own family heirlooms? As far as I know, you weren't this tough when you faced the Japanese Emperor back then, and the Japanese Emperor's lineage took away a lot of martial arts inheritances."

"Now they're really tough on their own people!"

Ai Shang and the others' expressions changed again.

There are two things they least want to hear about them...

One of them is robbery!
The other one is traitors!
But Wang Xiao is now directly tearing off their fig leaf, saying two things at once.

Ai Shang immediately scolded, "Shut up, Wang Xiao..."

The Ai family members around him glared angrily at Wang Xiao, their auras gathering as if they could swarm him at any moment.

but.

Wang Xiao's eyes were cold. He flashed forward and took a step. The step seemed small, but he actually used the spring kick technique to generate power. He instantly burst out with energy and took a step that covered several meters. In the blink of an eye, he arrived in front of Ai Shang.

He had the utmost contempt for this last royal family!
Ai Shang was also on guard at all times, so when Wang Xiao's aura erupted, the tiger aura on his body also erupted at the same time. His perfected Tiger Form Fist, which he had cultivated for ten years, was extremely fierce when his blood and qi erupted, no less than Wang Xiao's Tiger Form Fist after breaking the perfect shackles.

Roar……

A tiger's roar resounded from Ai Shang, and the true essence of a fierce tiger, which was also at the perfect realm, condensed.

Then, Ai Shang delivered a simple and direct horse stance punch to Wang Xiao, who had come in front of him.

Aishang has also entered a state of simplifying complexity and returning to simplicity.

All sorts of techniques have been discarded.

It emphasizes the three core elements of fighting: speed, accuracy, and ruthlessness!

Condense your inner strength as quickly as possible, and then strike it accurately!
boom……

Ai Shang's fist slammed out, displaying Xingyi Quan. With a single punch, two kinds of hidden force were condensed on his fist: cannon force and collapsing force!

These two forces can work together better and are easier to integrate.

Wang Xiao was equally unyielding, throwing a punch at Ai Shang at close range. His internal energy erupted, his inner strength merging with the Six Harmonies Cannon Force to surge forth, and his internal Iron Shirt and Golden Bell Cover techniques naturally activated.

boom……

Wang Xiao threw a punch, deliberately avoiding the opponent's fist and using his body to withstand the punch, while his own fist also landed solidly on Ai Shang's chest.

Both of them took a punch from the other at the same time!
Wang Xiao remained as steady as a mountain, completely unmoved, but the stone slab beneath his feet shattered like a spiderweb. His face flushed slightly, and a blood-red fist-shaped mark appeared on his chest! But…

Ai Shang was sent flying backward by Wang Xiao's punch, his chest caved in and his sternum shattered. At the same time, the powerful internal energy surged into his body, severely injuring his internal organs. He coughed up a mouthful of blood while still in the air, his face pale, looking at Wang Xiao with a hint of horror.

boom……

Ai Shang flew more than five meters away and crashed into a large rock, cracking the rock which was as tall as a person. He spat out another mouthful of blood, feeling as if his whole body had shattered and exploded. His internal organs were in excruciating pain, indicating that his very being had been damaged.

If it weren't for the fact that he had perfected the Tiger Form Fist over many years, and that his internal organs had been tempered into being incredibly strong and resilient by the Tiger Form Fist at the perfect level, this punch would have been enough to send him to his grave.

However, looking at Wang Xiao, who stood motionless, he said with difficulty, "Perfected Iron Shirt, Great Golden Bell Cover, Great Tai Chi, Great Springing Leg! Above perfection is Tiger Fist, Perfected Six Harmonies Fist. Wang Xiao, are you a human or a ghost?"

Ai Shang was exceptionally knowledgeable. Through the Ai family's collection of books, he was familiar with almost all the boxing traditions in the country. In addition, he also had perfected Tiger Form Boxing and Perfected Xingyi Boxing. Therefore, he had a very high level of insight. He could tell at a glance the aura of several boxing techniques on Wang Xiao and judged Wang Xiao's cultivation level. He was extremely shocked and thought that Wang Xiao was not human!

because.

Wang Xiao is only twenty-five years old.

He has cultivated so many boxing techniques and martial arts to such a high level.

Is this something a human can do?
Among the many classic texts he had read, none had mentioned someone like Wang Xiao. Even now, with the emergence of top geniuses, none have been as extraordinary as Wang Xiao.

Ten years ago, at the same age of twenty-five, he had mastered Tiger Form Fist to perfection, making him a top genius. He was the second most important person in the Ai family after Ai Chengjun, and one of the top masters in the entire Chinese martial arts world.

At this moment, standing in front of Wang Xiao, I felt like an ordinary person.

He unleashed his full power with the internal energy of the Tiger Form Fist. He had also condensed the Cannon Force and Collapse Force for several years, and had already mastered the two forces to the point of great success, not far from the perfect state. However, when the two forces merged, they could not harm Wang Xiao at all.

The perfect Iron Shirt technique, combined with the Great Golden Bell Shield, almost completely weakened most of his internal force attacks.

Hearing Ai Shang's words, the many experts and young geniuses from the Ai family around them looked at Wang Xiao in shock, and their earlier restlessness gradually subsided.

Ai Shang's all-out attack couldn't even hurt Wang Xiao.

Their attacks were like tickling Wang Xiao's feet.

All eyes were fixed on Wang Xiao as if he were a monster.

Even Yonghao, the monk who came with Wang Xiao, stared at Wang Xiao strangely.

Others may not know, but he himself knows very well that he only passed on the Golden Bell Cover technique to Wang Xiao two days ago. Even if Wang Xiao only practiced the Golden Bell Cover technique for the past two days, he has only practiced it for two days at most.

However, he knew that Wang Xiao had definitely not focused on practicing the Golden Bell Cover technique these past two days.

This morning, when he saw Wang Xiao, Yang Xiaoyu, and Dong Yuexi practicing Tiger Form Fist together, the aura of Tiger Form Fist was even more powerful.

and so!
Wang Xiao only practiced the Golden Bell Shield technique in the two days he spent on it.

He then cultivated the Golden Bell Shield technique to its highest level.

At this moment, Monk Yonghao was also pondering whether Wang Xiao was a human or a ghost.

still is……

Is he a deity or a Buddha?

Anyway!

It doesn't look like a human.

Humans cannot be that powerful and terrifying.

Two days ago, he received an improved version of the Internal Iron Shirt technique from Wang Xiao. He practiced it for two days and only barely got to the basics. It would take at least ten years of practice to reach perfection, even with his Arhat Fist technique, which broke the shackles of perfection, as a foundation.

If other people were to cultivate the internal Iron Shirt technique, it would be impossible to reach perfection without decades of arduous training; most people would never even have the chance to come close to the perfection realm.

Comparing yourself to others can really kill you.

Only Yang Xiaoyu and Dong Yuexi remained calm; they were already used to it.

Wang Xiao slowly withdrew his fist and stood up. He circulated his breath, dispelling the cannon force and collapsing force that had invaded his body. The vibrations in his internal organs had also returned to normal, and he felt a slight joy in his heart.

His improvement now is comprehensive!
The Tiger Form Fist, which broke free from the shackles of perfection, enhanced his blood and qi, physical recovery ability, and resistance to blows.

The Golden Bell Shield at the Lesser Completion stage can already weaken the invasion of internal energy by 20%. When combined with the Iron Shirt technique of the internal martial arts, the effect is even better, weakening the invasion of internal energy by 70%. As for the remaining 30% of internal energy invading Wang Xiao's body, with his physical strength, he can easily withstand it and recover quickly from any injury.

Therefore, Ai Shangcai mistakenly believed that his Golden Bell Shield had already reached its peak.

Actually, that's not the case; it's only at the minor stage of mastery.

Reaching the Great Completion stage will be even more terrifying; at the Perfection stage, one can almost completely ignore Ai Shang's hidden force attacks.

Wang Xiao glanced at the other Ai family disciples behind him and said calmly, "I am naturally human, but I don't want to continue being human in the future! Now, can we have a proper talk?"

Two Ai family disciples quickly ran over and helped Ai Shang up. Ai Shang coughed up another mouthful of blood and looked at Wang Xiao, saying, "Wang Xiao, times have changed. No matter how strong a martial arts master is, they are no match for guns and cannons. I admit that you are already incredibly strong, but you will eventually be eliminated."

Wang Xiao walked step by step toward Ai Shang with his hands behind his back, and smiled, "Then open your eyes wide and see if I will die from gunfire in the future. Now, I only want one answer: will you return the martial arts of Shaolin?"

Ai Shang watched Wang Xiao approach and dared not speak for a moment. Under his gaze, a flying white tiger condensed on Wang Xiao's body, making it difficult for him to even circulate his aura.

The Siberian tiger next to it turned around and ran into the forest without looking back.

At this moment, the aura of the Flying White Tiger emanating from Wang Xiao exuded a chilling killing intent that seemed almost tangible.

Even the true king of the forest, the Siberian tiger, couldn't withstand the pressure and fled.

Seeing this, Yonghao, the monk behind, had a hint of worry in his eyes, wondering whether cooperating with Wang Xiao was the right or wrong thing to do.

And this time!
A tiger's roar suddenly came from the mountains and forests behind.

"Wang Xiao, you deserve to die..."

A loud shout.

A figure flew out from the forest, descending from the sky like a cannonball. While in mid-air, he threw a punch at Wang Xiao. The punch was so powerful that it created a sonic boom. The air didn't even have time to explode before it was compressed into a ball by the powerful internal force of the fist. The punch pressed down on Wang Xiao's head like Mount Tai.

Wang Xiao looked up instantly and saw a golden light flash, and a figure as big as the sun descended from the sky.

A scorching heat emanated from the area.

"Humph!"

Wang Xiao snorted coldly, changed his stance, and raised his hand to throw a punch at the sky, not giving an inch. He unleashed his full inner strength, merging it with his running, and shattered the air with a cannon-like sound.

However, Wang Xiao's internal strength was ultimately not strong enough, so he couldn't compress the air into a ball with a single punch like his opponent.

Yonghao's expression changed slightly, and he hurriedly stepped forward. (End of Chapter)
