Chapter 9 Becoming a Guardian and Defeating Bi Hao
"Since I have no way out, I'll die on the ring!"
Li Xian said hoarsely.
Bi Hao's face turned ugly. This lowly beast dared to block his way. He said:
"Fine, fine, fine! You asked for it."
Pang Long raised an eyebrow, a hint of admiration rising in his heart. "Let's begin quickly. The incense is almost gone. The last person to stand in the arena will be the victor."
His words undoubtedly added fuel to the fire. Bi Hao clenched his fists; victory was in sight, and his heart was filled with unease.
He only wished to quickly send Li Xian flying, stand alone on the stage, and become a bodyguard. Taking a deep breath, he lunged forward, delivering a punch right in the face.
Li Xian used both hands to block and protect his head.
With a loud "bang," a fist struck his forearm, turning it purple instantly.
This is the [Earth Plate Fist] move from the Three Talents Fist style. Its aim is to be simple and unadorned, seeking progress while maintaining stability. It has no advantages and no disadvantages.
The Three Talents Boxing Method is a widely circulated basic boxing method, which consists of the three elements of Heaven, Earth, and Man.
A few days ago.
After taking the "Jingbao Soup," Bi Hao's internal energy became continuous, and on that very day, he achieved a breakthrough in the Three Talents Fist Technique.
Advance to the second level.
The local boxing style is simple in its punches, yet it possesses a powerful and solid foundation. It is almost guaranteed to defeat unskilled servants.
After a few punches, Li Xian's arm was in excruciating pain, but he endured it with sheer willpower.
Although he had never learned the "Three Talents Boxing Method", he had just watched Bi Hao's boxing style from the sidelines.
In the previous match, Bi Hao was carried away by his pride and wanted to show off in order to win Pang Long's favor.
Therefore, he deliberately showed off his boxing skills, revealing all his punches and moves, unaware that Li Xian had secretly memorized them.
"We're almost there..."
Li Xian endured for a moment longer, then suddenly saw Bi Hao's movements become more exaggerated. He was overjoyed, knowing that the opportunity he had been waiting for had arrived.
In that instant, he let out a low growl.
He unleashed all the anger pent up inside him.
The first move of the Wild Bull Fist, "Wild Bull Charge," is unleashed in an instant, the punch flowing smoothly and having been building up momentum for a long time.
The moment the punch was thrown, it was as if a raging bull was charging forward, its sharp horns colliding with it!
"ah!"
Bi Hao was shocked and quickly switched from attack to defense.
This punch failed to defeat Bi Hao, but it completely threw him into disarray.
Li Xian silently chanted in his heart, "Green Ox whips its tail!"
Turn around and throw a punch, using the twisting force of the waist and abdomen to increase the power of the punch! Although it is a fist technique, it is not without its finesse, like a whip.
All those countless punches of the past were for this one moment. A warm current flowed from his dantian to his fist, its force incredibly heavy!
Bang!
The punch landed on Bi Hao's shoulder, almost destroying it, and a faint cracking sound could be heard.
It wasn't Bi Hao's, but Li Xian's. As a menial laborer, he was often hungry and cold, and his constitution was weak and his bones were in poor condition.
In contrast, Bi Hao, with his cousin taking care of him, lived a very comfortable life.
Li Xian endured the pain without uttering a word. Bi Hao, however, let out a scream, and after the pain subsided, tried to create some distance.
At first glance, it looks as if Bihao's bones are fractured.
"Trying to run away!"
Li Xian only knows three moves. This set of moves must be used unexpectedly to win in one fell swoop, otherwise it will be useless.
In that instant, he reached out with his left hand and used the skill [weeding].
There was naturally no grass to be cleared on this arena, but Li Xian's target was Bi Hao's hair!
Grabbing his hair, the third move, "Raging Bull Raises Its Head," was delivered to his face as promised.
With that punch, Bi Hao's facial features caved in, and a patch of hair on his head was ripped out by the roots, oozing traces of blood.
Li Xian delivered the final kick, sending him tumbling off the stage.
At the same time, the last bit of cigarette burned out, and everything was just right!
He doesn't need to win too many times, just the most crucial one.
Bi Hao covered his scalp, and when he touched it, his hand was covered in blood. He gasped in pain and cursed, "You son of a bitch!"
"You wretched dog, you wretched dog, I'll kill you!"
Bi Hao rolled up his sleeves, ready to go back on stage for another fight. But he had already realized that this kid's boxing technique was completely incomplete.
Otherwise, he would have taken the opportunity to kill himself instead of kicking him off the ring.
"You've been hiding it well, kid."
"You hid so deep, probably just for this one time. Let's do it again and see how I cripple you."
Bi Hao's face was full of ruthlessness, and he was furious inside.
"The competition is over," Pang Long said calmly.
Bi Hao was stunned for a moment before he came to his senses.
Looking at the long incense stick beside him, the incense had burned out and the smoke had dissipated.
My heart skipped a beat. Forgetting my anger, I suddenly felt lost, unsure of where I was or what to do. I muttered blankly:
"I...lost?!"
He repeatedly checked in his mind, then glanced at everyone. The guards and servants looked at him strangely, none of them having expected this outcome.
"The guards' duel... they lost? They lost to the most insignificant lowly beast?"
The facts are gradually becoming clearer.
A buzzing sound filled my head.
A moment later, a faint glimmer of hope remained in his mind:
"Even if I fall off the stage, my martial arts skills are clearly superior, far surpassing those lowly beasts."
"Perhaps he has already gained Commander Pang's favor! If we try harder, there will definitely be another chance!"
So he mustered his courage and said, "Commander Pang, rules are rules, but people are flexible."
"My martial arts are superior to his, as everyone has seen. The purpose of this contest is presumably to select talented individuals with strong martial arts skills. Could... I have another match with that lowly... Brother Li?"
The words had barely left his mouth.
Pang Long said calmly, "The competition is over, and Li Xian has won."
“Great Commander…Great Commander…” Bi Hao panicked even more.
"The servants, return to the servants' quarters." Pang Long concluded, then impatiently waved his hand away.
“But…” Bi Hao gritted his teeth, his resentment reaching its peak. “Commander Pang, I object to the rules. This is unfair. I implore you…”
Pang Long looked at him but didn't say anything.
Bi Hao suddenly woke up with a start, his head shrinking back. "Commander Pang is right. Kid... you've lost."
Li Xian let out a heavy breath, thinking to himself, "I've finally taken the first step. Today's gamble wasn't in vain."
"No matter how hard Bi Hao racked his brains and schemed, he probably never expected that I would win in the end. He must hate me to death right now."
He couldn't help but look at Bi Hao.
"It's all smashed... I... I clearly prepared so carefully, but in the end, I still lost!"
"Clearly so lowly, yet you still insist on competing with me. Wouldn't it be better to just be a menial servant? Damn it, damn it."
"If Uncle Luo knew, how would I explain this?"
Bi Hao was distraught, his mind filled with infatuation, as if in a dream, his heart in turmoil.
Unwilling to accept this reality.
Li Xian walked towards him, cupped his hands and said, "Brother Bi, I am grateful for your care in the servants' quarters."
“You bastard…” Bi Hao was about to curse when he met Li Xian’s smiling face.
Now that Li Xian is a guard, it should be Li Xian who curses him with the words "lowly beast."
It should be noted that his cousin Luo Fang was able to get the position of manager thanks to his previous job as a guard!
Becoming a bodyguard would give you the opportunity to come into contact with some of the rudimentary martial arts techniques revealed by the lady!
Ordinary people can benefit immensely from even a small amount of it, and Luo Fangbian is an example of this.
The reversal of his identity and the change of his status made Bi Hao even more distressed. All of this, originally, belonged to him!
"Brother Li, congratulations!" Bi Hao's smile was more like a grimace.
"Congratulations, congratulations." Li Xian wanted to retort and curse Hao the bastard to vent his anger.
But on second thought, it's better not to utter the word "lowly beast".
The person being insulted certainly feels terrible.
But those who hurl insults... are implicitly acknowledging their own and others' lowly character: as long as one has a high status, one can regard those of lower status as animals.
In this way, it is the person who insults who is more likely to agree with the term "lowly beast".
In the future, when facing people of higher status or position, they will unconsciously feel inferior and place themselves in the category of "lowly animals".
After all, that's how I treat my servants too.
Li Xian could follow the rules of this world and climb the ladder step by step, but he was unwilling to assimilate into the world and become like Bi Hao.
Upon hearing the words "shared joy," Bi Hao felt a sharp pain in his heart.
This power is far more lethal than foul language.
Bi Hao spat out through gritted teeth, "Congratulations...congratulations!" Clutching his chest, which felt tight, he rushed out of the courtyard.
In the distance, Pang Long nodded secretly.
He was powerful but not arrogant, patient but not cowardly.
This kid... is quite interesting.
"Newcomer, come with me," Pang Long called out.
