A Martial Saint Among Men: From Joining a Martial Arts School

The duel between the two attracted the attention of many people in the spectator area.

Of course, most people are mainly focused on Wan Yang, a promising player.

"Wan Yang, it's Wan Yang! Haha, Chu Xuan is finished now!" Bai Dongxu's face flushed red, and he was so excited that he almost shouted it out.

He didn't sleep a wink last night, just thinking about how to quell Chu Xuan's anger after the martial arts examination.

After all, the internal strength of an eighteen-year-old is incomparable to that of a thirty-eight-year-old.

Unfortunately, as dawn approached, they were still at a loss.

Today, he was all prepared to humble himself and shake hands with Chu Xuan to make peace, but unexpectedly, things took an unexpected turn.

Chu Xuan actually ran into Wan Yang!

The Lu Family Martial Arts School and the White Ape Martial Arts School have always been at odds!

Facing Wan Yang, a genius from the White Ape Martial Arts School, Chu Xuan would find it difficult to even escape unscathed, let alone secure a spot in the Xuan Yang Sect or pass the imperial examination!

If that's the case, then Chu Xuan's threat to him will be greatly reduced!

Bai Dongchu glanced at his older brother but said nothing.

The thought in my heart only grew stronger!

We must separate!

"It's actually that little genius from the White Ape Martial Arts Academy? Brother Lu, it's a pity about your disciple." Sun Xiao, the master of the Spirit Serpent Martial Arts Academy, looked at Lu Tong beside him and said with some regret.

Under normal circumstances, with Chu Xuan's first-round results, passing the imperial examination would be a certainty, and he could even compete for a spot in the Xuan Yang Sect.

Unfortunately, in just the second round, they encountered a genius from the White Ape Martial Arts School!

Defeat is inevitable!

If he hadn't been injured, there might still have been a chance.

Thinking about the relationship between Lu Tong and Cao Xiong, he shook his head inwardly.

Chu Xuan's path ends here!

Lu Tong's face was dark, and he didn't say a word. His face was so gloomy that it looked like it was about to drip water.

He was in a very bad mood at that moment!

Chu Xuan learned his Eight Extreme Vajra Killing Technique last night. As long as he's not too weak, he shouldn't have any problem surviving against Wan Yang.

The problem is that once Chu Xuan uses the Eight Extremes Vajra Killing Technique, he will need to rest for at least a month, and it will be impossible for him to compete again!

He suddenly looked up, staring in the direction of the Tao family across the street, his eyes filled with a hint of killing intent!

These people are really impatient!

Inside the Tao family's private room.

Tao Ping kept his head down, still feeling a sense of terror as if he were being stared at by a tiger, which sent chills down his spine and made him afraid to move!

He knew that his master was watching him!

Tao Hongtai met Lu Tong's gaze directly, seemingly unaware of the other's killing intent, and smiled faintly, raising his teacup in a gesture of respect.

Is Lu Tong very strong?

Very strong!

But it's not strong enough!

If Lu Tong had surpassed the Transformation Realm like Jiang Wang, he would already be kneeling.

Unfortunately, Lu Tong is not!

……

On the arena.

The proctors were still checking the two people's number plates, verifying their identities, and registering them...

Chu Xuan wasn't in a hurry. He looked at Wan Yang and said seriously, "If I admit defeat now, will I still have a chance?"

"start!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the proctor ignored the banter between the two and immediately announced the results.

Whoosh!

Wan Yang suddenly sprang up, like a white ape pouncing on its prey, his movements extremely agile.

His arms stretched out like long whips, his palm strikes were sharp as blades, and his fingertips were filled with hidden strength as he slapped Chu Xuan's chest.

Instead of retreating, Chu Xuan advanced, his fist clenched loosely, and a surge of energy rose from his Yongquan acupoint, rushing along the Foot Shaoyin Meridian straight to his waist and spine. In an instant, his back suddenly tensed up, like a great dragon rising again, and the muscles in his shoulders and back bulged layer by layer.

He met the attack with a punch as well.

"Bang!"

The moment fists and palms collided, a muffled thud reverberated throughout the arena.

Wan Yang's expression changed, and he couldn't help but take a half step back. His arm went numb, and he briefly lost consciousness.

He looked up at Chu Xuan and saw that Chu Xuan had only taken half a step back!

"How is this possible?"

Wan Yang was both shocked and furious.

This piece of trash with inferior talent actually fought me to a standstill?

What does my superior physical constitution mean then?

After exchanging blows, he abandoned his underestimation of Chu Xuan. His movements were as swift as a monkey, and his left arm wrapped out in a spiral, his Tongbei Jin energy flowing like a snake as he pounced on Chu Xuan once more.

He brought the agility of the White Ape Tongbei Fist to its fullest potential, his arms moving with unpredictable variations in palm, claw, elbow, and fist. The Tongbei Power was sometimes as solid as a hammer, sometimes as light as silk, sometimes fast, sometimes slow, sometimes near, sometimes far.

Chu Xuan used the Bajiquan step to maneuver around, unleashing a series of powerful moves including Bengquan, Kaoda, and Liaoyinjiao.

Dozens of moves passed in the blink of an eye.

Dust billowed on the arena as two figures clashed, collided, and swept past each other, the crisp sounds of fists striking palms and the sharp whistling of energy scraping against the bluestone blending together.

"Chu Xuan is going to lose..."

Many people watching from below the stage expressed similar sentiments.

Although Chu Xuan's Bajiquan was solid, Wan Yang's body was too agile. Tongbei Quan was specifically designed to counter close-range, hard-hitting attacks. Whenever Chu Xuan's punch was about to land, Wan Yang would spin away or use Tongbei Quan to deflect the force and entangle the opponent.

They were completely led by the nose by Wan Yang!

However, Chu Xuan's ability to withstand so many moves from Wan Yang was beyond everyone's expectations.

"So he was hiding his strength? Too bad, that's the end of it!" Tao Hongtai sneered.

"die!"

Wan Yang suddenly roared, and his inner strength surged dramatically.

The moon-white energy condensed in his arms, his body moved like a white ape pouncing on its prey, his palms forming claws.

With the full force of Tongbei Kung Fu, the claw tip gleamed with a chilling white light, aiming straight for Chu Xuan's vital point. This was the ultimate move of the White Ape Tongbei Fist – the Tongbei Cleaver Claw!

If this move is executed, the meridians will be severed, resulting in either death or permanent disability!

"That's about it!"

Chu Xuan thought to himself.

Having acted alongside Wan Yang for so long, it shouldn't seem so abrupt anymore.

The next moment, as if enraged by the attack, he roared, "Eight Extremes Suppressing Yuan, Blood-Forged Vajra!"

While chanting the incantation of the Eight Extremes Vajra Kill, Chu Xuan instantly combined four layers of force, the hidden energy forcing his skin to turn crimson!

Boom!

A powerful and unparalleled pressure suddenly erupted, causing the surrounding dust and sand to swirl back.

Wan Yang's Cleaver was only inches from Chu Xuan's heart when it was slightly jolted by the pressure.

"This is... the Eight Extremes Vajra..."

A flicker of fear flashed in Wan Yang's eyes, but the die was cast and the arrow was already on the bowstring, and he had no choice but to release it. His claws continued to slash viciously downwards.

"kill!"

Chu Xuan roared, clenching his right fist and unleashing the hidden power of the Bajiquan Bengquan to its fullest extent.

Unmatched in ferocity, relentless and unstoppable!

The moment the fist and palm collided, the force exploded outwards like a thunderclap.

The pale white energy on Wan Yang's claws shattered like ice and snow meeting fire before Chu Xuan's fist, tearing apart the Tongbei Force.

He felt a scorching, fierce energy surge through his claws and into his meridians, like a raging dragon. The meridians in his arms were instantly shattered, causing excruciating pain.

Before Wan Yang could even scream, the sleeve on his right arm suddenly ripped open.

Along with the explosion, the flesh and blood on his arm also burst open!

In an instant, Wan Yang's entire right arm was shattered into bare white bones!

"Ahhh..."

Wan Yang coughed up blood, his face twisted and contorted in a grotesque grimace as he looked at his right arm, now reduced to bones.

"kill!"

Chu Xuan roared again, blood flowing from his seven orifices, his face contorted in a ferocious expression.

Before Wan Yang could admit defeat, he had already closed in, his shoulder and back muscles bulging and gleaming with a cold, bronze light.

He was like a tiger poised to pounce, unleashing the ultimate killing move of Bajiquan – Tiger Climbing the Mountain!

"I……"

Before Wan Yang could even utter the word "admit defeat," he felt a powerful, overwhelming force crashing down upon him.

The fierce wind rendered him speechless.

He mustered his last bit of strength to raise his left arm to block, but the broken meridians couldn't muster any strength at all.

"Snap!"

His left arm was instantly shattered as if made of paper, and Chu Xuan's palm strike landed squarely on his chest without any resistance.

"Bang!"

With a muffled thud, a burst of energy exploded from Wan Yang's chest.

He felt as if he had been hit by a heavy hammer, and his body flew backward.

With a thud, Wan Yang's eyes widened suddenly, his chest visibly caved in, blood gushed from his mouth and nose, and his pupils rapidly dilated.

The unspoken "I give up" was completely swallowed back down his throat...
