The next moment, Gao Yan strode towards the Intermediate People's Court.
Guan Mingsheng, struggling to get up from the ground, shouted, "Wait!"
Gao Yan turned to look at him.
Guan Mingsheng said with a wry smile, "Mr. Gao, you don't need to try the second and third trials anymore. We admit defeat!"
Even a master like Zhang Li was sent flying by a single slap. Even if all six of them attacked together, they wouldn't be a match for him. Why invite humiliation upon themselves?
"Admit defeat? I won't agree!"
Gao Yan shook his head and said, "I already let him go that day on the Great Wall." As he spoke, he glanced at Guan Lu in the crowd.
Guan Mingsheng did not deny this point. Based on the strength Gao Yan showed today, it would be easy for him to keep Guan Lu.
Gao Yan continued, "I didn't expect that I would be so generous as to let him go, but you insisted on forcing me to go through this damn checkpoint. Now that I can't beat you, you actually want to admit defeat. There's no such thing as a free lunch. You've taken all the advantages. However, I can give you a chance. Call out the people from the second and third checkpoints and come at me together!"
"this?"
Hearing this, Guan Mingsheng was caught in a dilemma. What use would it be if all five of them attacked together? Gao Yan was clearly angry, and if they continued to fight, the other five would just be his punching bags.
Just then.
Guan Lu strode out from the crowd, his face filled with grief and indignation, and said, "This whole thing started because of me. Do whatever you want with me!"
"You don't actually think that just because you say a few tough words, I'll let you off the hook and let you act out a TV drama here, do you?"
Gao Yan said disdainfully, "But since we've come this far, I can't very well refuse you. Come before me, and I'll strike you once. Whether you live or die, I won't pursue the matter any further!"
Upon hearing Gao Yan's words, Guan Lu felt both ashamed and angry, and at the same time, he was filled with fear, hesitating to step forward.
“It is the father’s fault for not raising his son properly. Although I am not his father, I am his uncle. I will take the blame for him!” Guan Mingsheng said at this moment.
When Guan Lu saw the old man standing up for him, he opened his mouth, but in the end, he didn't say anything.
"cut!"
Seeing this, Gao Yan gave Guan Mingsheng a disdainful look: "Old man, your taste is a bit poor!"
To be honest, Guan Mingsheng was also disappointed with Guan Lu's performance, but Guan Lu was, after all, the future of the Guan family, and he was getting old. Even if he was disappointed, he did not intend to go back on his word.
"Guan Lu, how could you do this, making me suffer for you!"
The youngest member, Guan Zitong, couldn't help but shout.
The others, who were twice as young, didn't say anything, but their gazes toward Guan Lu were filled with disdain and contempt.
You caused all this trouble, but when the time comes, you're acting like a coward and letting Guan Mingsheng take the blame for you. It's truly despicable.
At this moment, Guan Mingsheng had already walked up to Gao Yan, revealing an expression of resignation with his eyes closed: "Mr. Gao, please make your move!"
"Mr. Gao, wait a minute!"
At this moment, Zhang Li strode over: "Mr. Gao, Master Guan has been kind to me in teaching me martial arts. I will take his place in this palm strike!"
Are you playing with nesting dolls here?
Gao Yan said, speechless.
"Xiao Zhang, this is a matter for the Guan family. I appreciate your kindness, you may leave now!"
Guan Mingsheng sighed, his heart filled with growing unease. An outsider was willing to step forward, yet his own nephew remained silent. At this moment, he seriously doubted whether he could carry on the Guan family's legacy if entrusted to him.
"No, Master Guan, you are already seriously injured. If you take another blow, how can you survive? Let me do it. I am young and strong, and I can recover in a few months at most!"
Zhang Li still refused to back down, insisting on taking the blow for Guan Mingsheng.
"Mr. Gao, please make a move!"
Guan Mingsheng ignored him and shouted at Gao Yan with his chest puffed out.
"You old man, you do have some backbone!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his hand and struck his chest with a palm.
"stop!"
Having already witnessed Gao Yan's attack, Zhang Li knew he wasn't confident he could intercept that palm strike. So, he directly used the Iron Mountain Lean technique from Bajiquan to collide with Gao Yan, hoping to force him to back down.
"Get out of my way!"
Gao Yan pulled out his other hand and slapped Zhang Li.
The two hands struck each other almost simultaneously.
"Bang!"
Guan Mingsheng and Zhang Li were both sent flying backward.
Gao Yan didn't care about the outcome and turned to leave!
"uncle!"
Guan Zixin and Guan Zitong ran towards Guan Mingsheng together, while others went to check on Zhang Li's injuries.
"I'm fine!"
Guan Mingsheng raised his hand, then stood up from the ground: "They went easy on me!"
Then he looked at Zhang Li with concern: "Xiao Zhang, how are you?"
"I'm fine too!"
Zhang Li smiled wryly and said, "This Gao Yan is really terrifying. He is truly a rising star. His strength has probably reached the peak of the Transformation Realm. I estimate that in a few years, our Great Xia will produce a Dan Jin Realm expert who is not even thirty years old!"
Thinking of this, Zhang Li narrowed his eyes. Nowadays, the veteran Dan Jin (a type of internal energy cultivation) practitioners are all in their seventies or eighties, and as far as he knows, there are also Dan Jin practitioners in the military and a certain special department.
However, the Dan Jin in the military was over forty-five years old, and the one in the special department was close to fifty when he broke through.
If Gao Yan can break through before the age of thirty, he will definitely be the youngest Dan Jin, and may even reach the legendary Gang Jin in the future, or even become indestructible at the level of a god!
Most martial artists only know the first four realms of martial arts: Ming Jin, An Jin, Hua Jin, and Dan Jin. In fact, after Dan Jin there is Gang Jin, and after Gang Jin there is Jian Shen Bu Hua.
