My name is Huang Tian, ​​what the hell is this "Heaven is dead" nonsense?

Chapter 58 Face
'These footwork, these postures… it's like a grandmaster who has perfected the Tiger and Crane Fist techniques, every movement flawless, capable of transforming into a ferocious tiger or crane in a single pounce!'

Instructor Liu was secretly amazed: 'Could it be that he has completely mastered the Spirit Tiger Mountain-Crushing Fist and the Fierce Crane Fist after I only demonstrated them once? This is simply too incredible.'

However, I heard that when he first mastered the Tiger-Crane Strength, he only watched the Spirit Tiger and Demon Crane stance once. Could his comprehension truly be that exceptional?

With his mind racing, Head Instructor Liu asked, "Huang Tian, ​​have you accepted Huang Rui's request for a sparring match?"

Huang Tian and Huang Rui stood facing each other, several feet apart, and Huang Tian nodded slightly. "Yes."

"Alright, then you two can try your hand at it. But remember, you must not seriously injure anyone, and even less take a life, or you will be severely punished."

Although he had some confidence in Huang Tian, ​​Chief Instructor Liu was still not entirely at ease, fearing that Huang Rui might secretly use excessive force and injure Huang Tian. Therefore, he made a pointed remark:

"Huang Rui, you have been at the ninth rank of martial arts for a long time, your foundation is not shallow, your blood and qi are stronger, and your martial arts are more skillful and experienced. When sparring, you must give way more and hold back, understand?!"

He emphasized the last three words.

Huang Rui's expression changed slightly, and he said somewhat awkwardly, "Please rest assured, Head Instructor, I understand."

He was surprised that Chief Instructor Liu, who had no relation to Huang Tian, ​​would side with Huang Tian. This annoyed him, but he dared not glare at Chief Instructor Liu.

After all, the latter is a veteran seventh-rank martial artist, stronger than his elder brother Huang Qian, and has a wider network of connections. If they were to confront each other head-on, they would only end up getting hurt.

On the training ground, Huang Rui and Huang Tian stood facing each other.

The former slightly hunched his chest, tucked his chin in, bent his knees slightly, and held one hand in front of his chest while hiding the other under his ribs, like a venomous snake coiled up.

This is precisely the Shadow Style of the Snake Fist, which conceals its deadly moves. It appears unremarkable at first, but when the enemy is off guard, it strikes like a venomous snake, aiming straight for the vital points.

Faced with the cunning and insidious Yin Hand Snake Fist, Huang Tian calmly lowered his center of gravity, assumed a low bow stance, and slowly pushed his hands forward along his chest. With just one push, he exuded the awe-inspiring power of the king of all beasts in the mountains!

"Brother Luo, who do you think will win?" Yang Mo asked in a low voice.

Luo Chan squinted, carefully examining Huang Tian. He vaguely felt a heavy sense of oppression, which made him hold his breath.

"It's hard to say. Huang Rui's Snake Fist technique is always ruthless. Even an opponent stronger than him could fall for his trick if he's not careful."

As for Huang Tian, ​​I heard he had never studied martial arts before and knew no martial arts at all. But looking at his stance now, he seemed to have grasped the essence of the head instructor's Spirit Tiger Mountain-Shattering Fist. I wonder if he had just mastered it on the spot. If so... he might very well win!

Before the two could finish speaking, Huang Rui had already made his move.

He kept his feet flat on the ground, his steps short and swift, his gait zigzagging, as if he were waiting for an opportunity to strike. When he got within a zhang of Huang Tian, ​​his arms swung strangely as if boneless, pointing directly at the latter's ears.

In reality, the waving of his sleeves concealed a true killing intent; his right hand had already taken the shape of a snake's fang, silently stabbing towards Huang Tian's waist and ribs!
If one is struck by these jabs, the vicious force penetrates to the bone, instantly causing one's blood and qi to dissipate, half of the body to stiffen, and then one will be left only able to take the beating and unable to fight back.

A howling wind rushed towards him, and Huang Rui's ferocious face flashed before his eyes. Huang Tian's eyes were clear, and he moved his body, advancing instead of retreating!

"Roar—!" Huang Tian raised his energy and spirit to the peak, like a crouching tiger leaping up, letting out a deafening roar that sent invisible sound waves reverberating around him.

The wind howled, and my sleeves fluttered wildly!
Huang Rui was stunned for a moment by the tiger's roar. In that instant, Huang Tiangang's fierce and powerful punch landed squarely on the former's snake hand, making his right hand numb, red, swollen, and trembling.

Huang Rui's expression changed drastically. He shook his waist and hips, trying to escape like a nimble snake. However, he was experienced and, while retreating, he suddenly swept his left leg horizontally, trying to trip Huang Tian's heel.

If he trips you up and you fall, he will immediately stop retreating, nimbly slip into your opponent's chest, and strike their solar plexus and ribs with his elbow.

However, Huang Tian's response made him extremely uncomfortable. Meeting Huang Tian's lying leg move, Huang Tian's expression suddenly changed, shifting from hard to soft. He pushed off the ground with his toes and floated lightly into the air, and then...

呲!
Using the momentum of his downward sweep, he pointed his fingers like a beak, and with lightning speed, he slashed through the air, aiming straight for Huang Rui's throat!
This move is exactly the Crane Beak Cone that Instructor Liu just used!
Under Huang Rui's horrified gaze, Huang Tian's index and middle fingers, like iron cones heated red-hot in a furnace, stabbed fiercely with extremely penetrating force!

'He's going to kill me?!'

Huang Rui was greatly shocked and used all his strength to block his throat with his left palm.

puff!
The powerful force of the Ferocious Crane Fist passed through his left palm and struck his throat.

With a soft click, all of Huang Rui's movements and shouts were silenced.

He raised his hand to cover his throat, his eyes bulged, his face turned from red to bluish-purple, and he could only make low "hoarse" sounds. He staggered back a few steps and finally collapsed to the ground.

He didn't die. His left palm did indeed absorb most of the force, but the remaining force injured his throat, preventing him from making a clear sound for at least ten days to two weeks. Eating and drinking were also excruciatingly painful.

Seeing that he had fallen to the ground and was not getting up, Huang Tian took advantage of the situation and kicked him hard in the side!
"boom!!"

Huang Rui was kicked several feet away, and the dust on the ground rose up with his flying body, mixing with the crystal blood he spat out.

Huang Tian was about to continue when Head Instructor Liu quickly intervened, "Stop! Stop! That's enough! Any more and he'll be seriously injured!"

Huang Tian then stopped moving, his back straight as a spear amidst the swirling dust. Though he was not moving, he exuded an extremely strong sense of oppression.

All the martial arts performers held their breath as they looked at Huang Rui, who was lying on the ground, spitting blood, with a wounded throat, unable to even beg for mercy. A chill ran through them.

'This Huang Tian is a ruthless character!'

Instructor Liu took several large steps to Huang Rui, who had fallen to the ground. He squatted down and examined him. “It’s alright. No internal organs were injured. Some bones were cracked, but it’s nothing serious. He’ll be fine after half a month or a month of rest. Hmm, the swelling in his throat is gradually going down, and he’ll be fine after a while. It’ll just be painful to speak and eat.”

After the inspection, he breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Huang Tian, ​​whose face was as calm as a still lake, with an expression of approval in his eyes.

They are quick learners, have high moral character, act decisively, and know how to be tactful when facing an enemy. They know how to make their opponent look as bad as possible and lose face without seriously injuring them!
'What a promising talent! What a truly promising talent!!'
