Chapter 872: Seeking Advancement and Self-Resilience
The news that Jie Ping told Chen Chuan was about Lu Fang. After a month-long adjustment, this senior has reached his peak condition and is ready to fight someone tomorrow.
The person he is facing is a disciple from the Tianshu Gang Boxing Gym, who also wants to find an opponent to seek a breakthrough. The two had previously contacted and found each other through the edge channel, and this time the edge channel will provide them with a venue and protection, and show the fighting process of the two on the channel.
After Chen Chuan learned about it, he checked the situation of this person from the Tianshu Gang.
This man's name is Yong Dahu. He came from the Tianshu Gang boxing gym. It is worth mentioning that this man comes from a good family and went to the boxing gym to learn fighting skills at his own expense, so he does not have a close connection with the Tianshu Gang. This time, he will follow the rules and only bring two people to the scene.
Since there is no problem with the person, let's wait and see tomorrow's competition.
This fight is to reach a higher level. Both sides will try their best. The loser may lose his life, so he will pay close attention to it.
He turned off the Jie Ping and said to Nian Qian, "Tomorrow morning at ten o'clock, there will be a competition between one of my seniors from Wuyi College. Both he and his opponent are aiming to break through to a higher level, so this competition will most likely be a no-holds-barred fight. If you're interested, cousin, you can watch it with me."
Nian Qian was interested in this. He said, "My cousin's senior, I want to take a look. There are few Wuyi graduates in our army. They prefer to work in government departments and various companies rather than in the army."
Chen Chuanshuo said, "Partly because they don't have to go to the battlefield, and partly because of their sponsors, their fate is predetermined long before they enter college. They have no way of making any decisions. Very few of them can make it on their own."
Nian Qian nodded. He knew that his cousin had gone through the same thing back then. In this era, it was really not easy to make a name for himself. He was lucky enough to find a way to move up, so he was very grateful to his parents and his uncle Han Kuang.
Chen Chuan chatted for a few more words and then went to the training ground.
Nian Qian looked at his back and thought that his cousin had very little free time every day and devoted all his attention to spiritual practice. He thought that maybe it was really like what his cousin said, and for him, fighting itself could bring him pleasure?
After sighing, he returned to his room. It was very convenient to search for information in the central city, and new technologies and implants emerged in an endless stream. As a military commander, he could not ignore these. Who knew when these things would be used on the enemy? Knowing about them would prevent him from being at a loss when encountering them. He could take this time to enrich himself.
At half past nine in the morning, on the rooftop of an abandoned building in Hongsheng District, Lu Fang arrived at the venue arranged by the Marginal Channel.
His opponent had also arrived by this time. He was a sturdy man half a head taller than him. He was wearing a stretch vest, revealing his well-defined muscles.
After the two of them moved around for a while, they walked to the open space that had been marked out in advance, while the others, including the two seniors who accompanied Lu Fang and the gang members who were responsible for clearing the area, all stepped back.
This time, the two sides do not need any referee or protection in their fight, as long as they use normal fighting methods, they can all be used.
As for other insidious off-field tricks, they are unnecessary. They are for the pursuit of breakthroughs in the level of life, not for simple victory. Those means can deceive others but not themselves.
Because the Edge Channel was involved in this event, it was equipped with a dedicated commentator. At this moment, countless people in front of the screen had prepared snacks and drinks, ready to enjoy this fight.
In fact, in addition to Lu Fang and the other two, there are several other fights scheduled for today. Once theirs is finished, they will quickly move on to the next one.
Although this kind of competition is not as good as the fighting competition organized by Wu Yi, because it does not involve life and death, most of the contestants are screened by the channel, so the level is also very high, and it has a large number of fans.
Chen Chuan and Nian Qian were also sitting in front of the live screen. Nian Qian glanced at Lu Fang and asked, "Is that your senior, cousin?"
Chen Chuan nodded.
Nian Qian glanced at the introduction on the edge channel, which only showed the numerical codes of two people. The two fighters had reached the second limit.
He thought to himself, this should be the level that Wu Yi students can usually reach at this age? Only people like my cousin can move so fast.
On the screen, Lu Fang displayed the most orthodox free-hand fighting style, while his opponent displayed the Tianshu Gang's large horizontal punch, which is the basic boxing technique of Tianshu Fist. Even with the basic boxing moves, practitioners can have extremely strong resistance to blows.
The two men confronted each other for a while, then rushed forward again and exchanged several moves at a very fast speed. Then they quickly retreated, and then tried to get close to each other and exchanged punches and kicks fiercely again.
The commentary on the marginal channel is obviously informative, with fast and clear speech, and all the key points are mentioned. Even people without any fighting background can feel the excitement of the moves of both sides from his full emotions and tone.
The two fought for more than three minutes, separating three times. Every time they retreated, they would re-examine their opponents. It was obvious that neither of them was at ease.
However, after separating again, both sides were reluctant to move forward.
Nian Qian said: "Cousin, this is..."
Chen Chuanshuo said, "They must have known each other's moves and strengths beforehand, so they formulated a strategy before the battle. However, the two sides are close in strength, and they've cracked each other's strategies. Strictly speaking, the fight just now was just a test. From now on, they'll need to rely entirely on their own combat reflexes. The slightest mistake could mean death, so they'll be extremely cautious."
Nian Qian said, "Cousin, can your senior win?"
Chen Chuan said: "It's hard to say until the end."
Nian Qian jokingly said, "Can't even a great martial artist like you see that?"
"Because fighting is extremely uncertain, even a tiny off-field factor or a momentary distraction can cause a move to slow down or become distorted. It all depends on the fighters themselves. Unless I can influence them on the spot, I can't tell who's winning. The best I can do is tell who has a better chance of winning."
Nian Qian nodded. This is just like fighting a war. You can never take all factors into consideration. Even if it looks like you are going to win, a small mistake in command may lead to the defeat of the battle.
The confrontation between the two men in the field finally ended at this moment. The two men rushed forward almost at the same time. Their moves were extremely fast this time, and in the fight like lightning, you could hear the banging sound of the exchange and collision of limbs, and the commentator's voice also became extremely high-pitched for a while.
In just a short moment, the two kept moving on the field, exchanging more than ten attacks and defenses. Lu Fang seemed to have a flaw suddenly because he failed to adjust in time. Yong Dahu seized the opportunity, shouted loudly, and punched him on the shoulder and chest!
Even through the screen, one could hear the sound of bones breaking, and some of the spectators exclaimed in surprise.
Seniors Guo and Yu, who came to send him over later, both changed their expressions.
But almost at the same time, Lu Fang seemed to be unaffected at all. His four fingers were like knives, stabbing Yong Dahu's throat fiercely, and stopped before the final force. But then Yong Dahu kicked him, and with a bang, he flew far away and rolled several times, almost falling downstairs. When he stood up with his elbows, his face became very pale, and a trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.
Yong Dahu was stunned for a moment, then looked at him with complicated eyes and said, "Brother Lu, you win."
His big horizontal fist was very good at defense, and he had almost no weaknesses on his body. But before he got the proper inheritance of Tianshu Fist, he would lose his strength when attacking, so he could not defend himself. Lu Fang saw this, so he exchanged injuries for injuries. If he had not stopped the previous attack, he could have pierced his throat and killed him on the spot.
But Lu Fang finally stopped, which was the most difficult thing. And because he had not lost his fighting ability at that time, he could have taken advantage of the opportunity to kill Lu Fang with one punch, so he would still win today.
You can fool others but not yourself.
The most crucial thing here is Lu Fang's trust in him. He believed that he would restrain himself after realizing this. In fact, this was indeed the case, so the last kick he made was not actually heavy. This made him feel both disappointed and impressed, and at the same time, a little touched by being trusted.
He clasped his fist towards Lu Fang and said solemnly, "Brother Lu, after you recover from your injury, I will treat you to a meal. Don't refuse. It's a deal!"
Lu Fang nodded and said, "Okay, it's settled."
"That's great! I'll be leaving first. Brother Lu, take good care of your injuries. Tell me if you need anything. Don't be polite with me!" Yong Dahu walked back, picked up the clothes on the ground, and left very decisively.
At this time, seniors Yu and Guo quickly ran up to help Lu Fang up, checked him, and breathed a sigh of relief. Although he was seriously injured, with one rib almost broken and his shoulder bone cracked, he was not dead.
Senior Yu said, "Junior, you, the winner, are hurt more than the loser."
Senior Guo said seriously, "When you held back at the end, did you ever consider that if others didn't hold back, you would be dead?"
Lu Fang forced a smile and said with certainty, "No, a man's fists never lie. I know this Brother Yong will definitely hold back."
"Well, whatever you want." Senior Guo put his arm on himself, and then the two of them helped him walk downstairs. Seeing that there was nothing exciting to watch, the people around them also dispersed.
The three of them went downstairs and walked out for dozens of steps. Suddenly, Lu Fang seemed to feel something. His heart began to beat rapidly, and then a warm current surged out from his heart and flowed to all parts of his body. After a while, a crackling sound came from his body, and the broken bones began to return to their positions and heal.
Guo and Yu both noticed something strange about his body and said in surprise, "Junior, you..."
Lu Fang withdrew his hands from the two men and stood up straight. He took a deep breath, then looked up at the two men and said, "Seniors, I have made a breakthrough."
