Chapter 342: Defeated in One Move

¨¨¨¨¨Seeing that Tang Shuo and Zhen Jingwu's scenes were about to begin filming, the bearded men who could have taken a break did not leave but stayed on the sidelines to observe.

They had already experienced Tang Shuo's strength, and they also knew Zhen Jingwu well. Almost everyone was looking forward to the showdown between the two.

"Brother, who do you think is stronger between these two guys?" a young man said to the bearded man.

The bearded man frowned and thought for a moment, then slowly shook his head and said, "It's hard to say."

"I think it's Zhen Jingwu," another taller man interjected. "Zhen Jingwu's Wing Chun and Xingyiquan are both considered master-level. Although his character may not be very good, his skills are definitely not bad."

"I think this guy called Tang Shuo is more powerful," said the man standing next to the bearded man. "We all experienced his attack just now. A master of this level is simply no match for Zhen Jingwu."

"If Zhen Jingwu really fights you, you probably won't end up well," the slightly taller man retorted.

"We've fought against Zhen Jingwu before," the man next to the bearded man said, "Did you feel the same powerlessness you did just now?"

"Stop arguing and just watch carefully." said the bearded man.

The people who were arguing around finally shut up and stared at the two without blinking.

Lu Wanqi and Zhu Lan, who will play Tang Shuo's first love, naturally stood on the sidelines and watched this scene.

"Sister Wanqi, I heard the director didn't arrange any routines. Will Tang Shuo get hurt?"

Zhu Lan asked with a hint of worry, "Zhen Jingwu is a Kung Fu superstar. What if he accidentally hurts Tang Shuo?"

Lu Wanqi frowned slightly and looked at Zhu Lan and said, "It seems you care a lot about this Tang Shuo?"

Zhu Lan was startled, then quickly explained, "I'm just worried about delaying the filming progress."

Women's minds are inevitably more delicate than men's. From the moment Tang Shuo took Lu Wanqi away, Zhu Lan discovered that the relationship between the two was abnormal.

Moreover, Lu Wanqi had never been very interested in such things. Today, she became interested because of a suspicious point. After careful observation, she suddenly discovered that the two people definitely had an improper relationship.

"It doesn't matter, Tang Shuo is also very powerful." Lu Wanqi said with a smile.

Zhu Lan smiled awkwardly, then didn't dare to say anything more. He silently turned his gaze to the two people on the field who had already finished rehearsing their lines.

…

Zhen Jingwu exerted force on his feet, taking small steps back and forth, gathering momentum and rushing forward.

Tang Shuo nodded secretly. Just from this set of footwork, it was clear that Zhen Jingwu was indeed quite capable. The opponent used the Eight Directions Step, a relatively advanced form of Southern Fist, which was an evolution of the Plum Blossom Stake.

In fact, the plum blossom pile was originally a set of training equipment specially customized for Meiquan. Later, after it was spread, it was also adopted by many martial arts schools as basic training.

This set of footwork is fast yet not chaotic, allowing for free movement and retreat, following one's mood and rising and falling according to one's form. There are rules for change, techniques for movement and stillness, allowing one to take the initiative and occupy advantageous terrain.

Zhen Jingwu must have worked hard to be able to practice it to this level.

But this set of steps has another name... Group Step!

It is not difficult to see from the name that the core of the Eight Direction Steps is to fight against many enemies at once.

Putting aside the fact that Zhen Jingwu was only a novice who only understood the form but not the essence of the technique, even if he understood the power of Qi as well as Tang Shuo and had mastered this set of footwork completely, choosing such a footwork in a fight would be a sheer act of seeking death.

But the two are now filming a movie, and this set of footwork can best demonstrate the characteristics of their body movements.

In the blink of an eye, Zhen Jingwu rushed in front of Tang Shuo, his body tilted, and his right fist swung up from behind like a twist.

When the fist was about to touch Tang Shuo's cheek, Zhen Jingwu's fist suddenly turned, and the speed increased again, and the power of the fist also increased a bit.

Tang Shuo frowned. Zhen Jingwu attacked him right away, which really made Tang Shuo angry!

He suddenly took a step back, and when Zhen Jingwu's fist missed, he kicked him directly in the stomach without any fancy moves.

While Zhen Jingwu was still wondering why his fist missed, he saw his body flying backwards lightly and then landed heavily five meters away.

The photographer instinctively pointed the camera at Zhen Jingwu and gave him a close-up.

Except for Tang Shuo and Lu Wanqi who knew him inside and out, everyone else was stunned for a moment. There was not a sound in the huge venue.

Although Zhen Jingwu's defeat was a scripted arrangement, logically, Zhen Jingwu would have to fight Tang Shuo for a few moves before being defeated. However, who could have imagined that Zhen Jingwu would be lying on the ground with just one move.

"Card!"

Li Quan shouted, then asked, "Jingwu, what's going on? You want to fight Tang Shuo for a few moves before falling to the ground!"

Zhen Jingwu, who was completely unable to get up, raised his head, then lay down again without saying a word.

Only then did everyone realize that Zhen Jingwu was not acting at all, but was really defeated by Tang Shuo with just one move!

Kung Fu superstar Zhen Jingwu couldn't even withstand a single move when fighting with someone. If this were to be leaked, it would definitely be on the headlines of tomorrow's entertainment section.

Li Quan immediately shouted, "Doctor, doctor!"

A doctor who was temporarily hired by the crew to deal with the emergency rushed over and helped Zhen Jingwu to check.

On the other side, Lu Wanqi hurried forward and asked Tang Shuo, "Are you okay?"

Although she told Zhu Lan that nothing was wrong, she was still a little worried.

Zhu Lan, who came with Lu Wanqi, almost fainted because of this sentence. It was Tang Shuo who kicked Zhen Jingwu away, and then he asked Tang Shuo if he was okay. Is there such a person?

Tang Shuo smiled and shook his head, then said to Li Quan who was walking over, "I didn't know he couldn't even dodge a kick. But I was very measured in my attack, so he just needs to rest for a while."

Zhen Jingwu's punch just now had no good intention at all, and Tang Shuo was just retaliating in his own way.

The opponent's punch seemed simple, but it was enough to make an untrained person faint or even die. Even if the bearded man came to take it, he might not be able to catch it.

That punch is not as simple as it looks on the surface. In fact, it is called a swing punch, and some people call it a sky cannon.

This technique utilizes three consecutive twists of the body to leverage momentum and deliver the final blow. It's used in many martial arts techniques, and if we were to rank the threat of punches, this punch would be second only to the ultimate killer move. [The sentence about the garbled text appears unrelated and likely comes from a different source.]

Zhen Jingwu had actually held back earlier, skipping the step of leveraging his feet, relying solely on the strength of his waist and wrists. If not, it wouldn't just be Tang Shuo's kick waiting for him.

Li Quan gave a helpless smile. The doctor had just checked and although Zhen Jingwu was not seriously injured, he still needed to rest for a while.

After comforting Tang Shuo with a few words, Li Quan announced that the entire crew would take a half-hour break.

He then walked directly towards the camera, wanting to see the slow motion effect.

…

"Brother, was I dazzled just now?" the taller man said to the bearded man.

The bearded man also had a look of shock on his face. He swallowed and said, "This is the real martial art."

At first, he thought that Tang Shuo had a greater chance of winning, but it was just a greater chance. He didn't expect that Tang Shuo would kill Zhen Jingwu with just one kick.

"Look what I said." The man next to the bearded man said smugly, "Zhen Jingwu's skills are simply not good enough."

"Damn, where on earth did this freak come from?" said the slightly taller man.

Several people saw Li Quan walking towards the monitor, looked at each other, and then immediately surrounded him.

…

Tang Shuo chatted with Lu Wanqi for a few words, then stood up and walked towards the lounge where Zhen Jingwu was.

No matter what, he was the one who hurt Zhen Jingwu, so he should go and see him. After all, the two of them still have two scenes to shoot.
