Chapter 1097: It’s different when the master goes on stage
Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations
When the people below the stage saw this, they were stunned. Then, they started whispering into each other’s ears.
“This Shanghai association person actually dares to go on stage?”
“This Zheng Bin knows no restraint. What kind of kung fu could that association person actually know? He’d get an internal injury with one strike. Should we hurry up and stop this? Otherwise, something bad might really happen.”
“Yeah. No matter what, this association is a government recognized unit. It’s considered to be the department that passes down martial arts in our society. If someone from the association gets injured, it would be really bad.”
“I think we should let it be. He willingly went on stage, so we couldn’t possibly tell him to come down. He would be ashamed. In the past, martial arts practitioners like us would settle disagreements by fighting to the death. We wouldn’t care about things like giving face.”
“That’s true. But this association person really doesn’t know how to hold his temper. Does he really think that this is a performance for normal people? This is true martial arts. Someone can get beaten to death.”
“A newborn calf isn’t afraid of the tiger. Look at that young man. He’s white and pure. His hands are soft and tender. It’s clear that he doesn’t practice martial arts. I’m afraid he only knows some superficial moves. It would be good for this kind of city person to receive some punishment. At least he would have some reverence for martial arts practitioners like us in the future.”
The association members who had come along were very worried now. “Chairman Wang, will there be a problem if President Lin goes up?”
“That…” Wang Yun Jie really didn’t know how to answer. It was hard to say if there would be a problem. Even Wang Yun Jie wouldn’t be a match for that guy on the stage.
As for President Lin, of course Wang Yun Jie knew he was powerful. However, the current situation was difficult to predict. Then, he turned to Jiang Fei as if to ask him what were the odds.
Jiang Fei was stunned after seeing President Lin go on stage. He hadn’t expected President Lin to really do it. Something bad could really happen. This time, they had come just to spectate and record some of the scenes at the event so that they would be able to publish it when they go back.
“Don’t look at me. I don’t know what to say either.” Jiang Fei shook his head. He really didn’t know what to say. They knew about President Lin’s strength. He was really powerful. However, the opponent was not weak either.
Fraud Tian was hooting from the side, “Kill that fella. Let him know what happens when he acts too arrogantly.”
Zhao Zhong Yang pointed his phone camera at the stage.
“Brothers, watch closely. Our Master Lin has gone on stage. According to my prediction, the opponent will be on the ground within three seconds.”
“666… It seems that Master Lin can’t stand it anymore. He’s going to use real kung fu to educate that guy. That guy is too unbridled. It was fine that he won but he still went on to humiliate the opposition.”
“That’s right. Although the opposition is a foreigner and we should be proud to see our own people win, I can’t feel proud at all now. Our image has been thrown to the ground by him.”
“Sending gifts. As long as Master Lin teaches this guy a good lesson, I’ll send a big gift later on.”
“But Master Lin wouldn’t get beaten down, would he? I’m doubtful.”
“^Are you dreaming? If Master Lin could get beaten down, I would each sh*t .”
Wu You Lan was clenching her tender fists tightly. She appeared to be very excited.
When Jiang Fei saw this, he was dazed. Why did they seem as if Master Lin would win for sure?
On stage.
Huang Ru Zhong saw the situation in the arena and said softly, “Who is this young man?”
The old-timers by the side shook their head. “No idea. But I think he’s a representative from the Shanghai association. Why did he go on stage all of a sudden?”
“Yeah. This association helps us a lot with promotion. If this Zheng Bin injures this person, it would be hard to explain.”
At that moment, Huang Ru Zhong spoke, “Zheng Bin, that’s enough.”
Zheng Bin stood in the arena arrogantly. Then, he nodded at Elder Huang. “Elder Huang, don’t worry. I’ll definitely go easy on him. I’ll just make him search for his teeth on the ground.”
Huang Ru Zhong shook his head. He couldn’t foresee that person doing anything to Zheng Bin. After all, that young man looked plain and he didn’t seem like a martial arts practitioner at all. He had probably only learned some moves for display in the association.
But Huang Ru Zhong decided to let it be. Since that person had stepped on stage, he couldn’t tell him to come down. Otherwise, that young man would lose face.
At that moment, Zheng Bin looked at Lin Fan and said, “Kid, I was already unhappy with you since yesterday. Now that you’ve come on stage, I shall teach you a lesson.”
Lin Fan looked at him and shook his head. “You really don’t have good morals.”
“Shut up. That has nothing to do with you. I’ll teach you a lesson today,” said Zheng Bin maniacally. Then, he raised his hands and prepared to teach the opposition a lesson.
“Tiger Fist, the eighth fist of Cha Quan. Coincidentally, I know this technique too. Let me give you a lesson then,” said Lin Fan as he raised his fists as well.
The people below the stage were astonished.
“D*mn. This guy knows Tiger Fist as well?”
“It can’t be. Wasn’t the Tiger Fist only passed down to Zheng Bin? And if it’s from another branch, he couldn’t possibly dare to compete with Zheng Bin. He must be bluffing.”
“I don’t know. Now, it’s gotten interesting. I wonder how this will turn out.”
The association members were stunned. “Does President Lin really know that technique?”
“I don’t know. But looking at his stance, it seems quite alike.”
Fraud Tian was curious after seeing this. “Strange. Doesn’t the kid only know Ba Gua Zhang? When did he learn this technique?”
The biggest shock he had gotten from Lin Fan was when he found out that this kid’s Ba Gua Zhang was actually better than his at such a young age. This made Fraud Tian, who had trained his whole life, feel a tremendous pressure. He felt as if his whole life couldn’t compare to one young man.
Now that Lin Fan said that he was going to use Tiger Fist, it was a little scary.
Even the old-timers on the viewing platform were curious.
“This Tiger Fist requires a deep level of Qi in the Dantian. It consists of steady strikes and it’s as fierce as a tiger. People who practice it typically have strong and muscular builds. But this young man looks rather weak. He doesn’t seem like a Tiger Fist user at all. Could it be that he just learned some moves for show and he’s treating it like the real thing?”
“Mmm… It’s hard to say. I feel that we should have gotten this young man to come down. If something really happens, it would be difficult to settle.”
Those big shots on the viewing platform were discussing. They didn’t have much faith in Lin Fan because they could tell the level of one’s martial arts skills just by looking at his or her energy and physique.
However, this young man’s physique seemed lackluster.
“You’re good. You actually dare to humiliate me by using my technique. Watch out.” Zheng Bin was enraged. Like a tiger descending from a mountain, he pounced at Lin Fan.
To Lin Fan, this was like bullying a newborn baby. He felt a little reluctant to strike.
*Bam!*
*Bam!*
*Bam!*
After three resounding blows.
The initially noisy venue sank into a deep silence.
