Chapter 58: Gaining a Foothold (I)
Wang Yao's face darkened slightly. Even though he had prepared himself mentally, he was still in a bad mood when someone came to slap him in the face on the opening day.
The excited crowd quieted down and looked at the man who was shouting. The man was in his thirties or forties, wearing a black short shirt and had a tall build.
He took a step forward, with a haughty look on his face, and bowed to Wang Yao, saying, "I am the owner of the Baquan Martial Arts School, Ding Bashan."
"Ah, it's him. The scale of Baquan Martial Arts School is quite large." Wen Bingdie covered her mouth behind her back and said in surprise.
No matter who he is, he will be beaten as soon as he comes to the door. Wang Yao asked several disciples to clear the martial arts field.
The front yard was very spacious, but now that Wang Yao had forcibly cleared the martial arts field, there wasn't much space left for viewing.
There was a sudden commotion from below, and many people were squeezed out. Some of the more agile ones were even hung on the eaves of the wall.
"Ding Bashan was also on the Yellow List of the previous generation and had made a name for himself. I think Bian Jiunan is in trouble."
"Too young and not experienced enough."
"That's right. Many First Realm masters only have the strength to compete for the top spot when they are almost thirty."
Various "masters" are commenting on Wang Yao, but in fact they are just dissatisfied with Wang Yao, or a little jealousy in their hearts.
Wang Yao needed a war witnessed by everyone. After all, few people were alive when he killed Huang Ling.
In fact, what Wang Yao was most curious about was Bai Xiaosheng. This was not a person but an organization that had been active in the martial arts world since the establishment of the Wu Dynasty.
The Four Lists of Heaven, Earth and Yellow were created by them. Not many people believed it at the beginning until all kinds of unknown battle records and news were exposed.
The credibility of the list was gradually established, and even the imperial court used it as a basis to hunt down martial arts masters who had committed serious crimes.
No one knew where their news came from, which made people panic and uneasy for a while, as if there were eyes somewhere.
As time went by, everyone felt relieved after realizing that this organization did not interfere in anything.
It’s not that no one wanted to provoke. At that time, several masters on the Earth List openly clamored to destroy the Tianji Tower, saying that the ranking was inaccurate.
However, overnight, those masters on the Earth List were removed from the Earth List and disappeared without a trace, as if they had evaporated from the face of the earth.
The martial arts arena was cleared, and Wang Yao and Ding Bashan stood on each side. Both were good at boxing and did not carry any weapons.
"Please." As the host, Wang Yao did not act rudely and let Ding Bashan take action first.
Ding Bashan didn't hold back, his internal energy surged throughout his body, his temples bulged high, and with a step of his feet, a crack appeared on the bluestone slab.
"Baquan, please teach me!" Ding Bashan picked up his fists and rushed straight towards Wang Yao, his fists were powerful and hard.
Wang Yao did not show any fear. He started by throwing punches in the air, stacking up a few waves, and he wanted to fight head-on.
"Five-fold Wave!" Fists like waves slammed into Ding Bashan's fist, with bursts of punch sounds.
Wang Yao took on a violent and domineering force, which made him retreat two steps. He was a little surprised that he couldn't even take on the five waves.
"Boy, it still doesn't work." Seeing Wang Yao retreat, Ding Bashan sneered, punched more powerfully, and rushed forward again.
This punch was bright and powerful, hitting Wang Yao right in the middle. Wang Yao was determined to fight and didn't want to dodge, but he knew that Liu Dielang might not be able to take it.
This is the disadvantage of the Wild Wave Fist. As a unique skill, it requires stacking fists and strength first. Now there is no chance to stack during a fight.
In that case, it's your turn to use Xiantian Qigong. Wang Yao remembered the sharpness of the metal energy before and immediately mobilized it.
Unfortunately, Wang Yao's skills were just beginning to develop, and his gold energy was still very weak. In addition, a strand of it had been consumed, so even if he gathered all of it at this moment, it could only barely cover Wang Yao's punch.
"Six-fold wave!"
Ding Bashan's smile became even wider. His boxing style focused on overwhelming the opponent with force. After winning just now, his momentum had reached its peak.
His punching power is now stronger than before, and you, Bian Jiu, actually dared to take it head-on. I don’t think your martial arts school can continue to operate.
"Bang!" The two men's fists collided head-on, and a collision sound was heard.
"See, it really doesn't work." The fierce and domineering punch made Wang Yao take another step back, and the "masters" who were watching the show came to their conclusions.
Several disciples of the Kuanglang Gang were also extremely worried. Wen Bingdie clenched her hands together and prayed silently in her heart.
Only Zhang Yun noticed something was wrong. Ding Bashan stood still, not retracting his outstretched fist, his face looking embarrassed.
Immediately, there was a sound of bone breaking in his right hand, and blood gushed out from his fist, leaving a half-moon scar that was very conspicuous.
"You are so cruel!" Ding Bashan endured the pain, put his bleeding fist back behind his back, and left in a hurry with the support of his apprentice.
The reason why Ding Bashan said this was because Wang Yao's punch even broke his hand bones, and it was still unclear whether he could recover.
The onlookers looked at each other in confusion when they saw Ding Bashan leave without a care in the world. Did he win?
Wen Bingdie and others were the first to react. They ran over to congratulate Wang Yao and also asked if he was injured.
"Anyone else who wants to give it a try? I, Bian Jiu, will accompany you to the end. Of course, some injuries from fistfights and kicks are inevitable."
Wang Yao showed his intact fist, comforted his fellow disciples, turned around and deliberately shouted to the people who had been with Ding Bashan before.
In fact, he is now unsure. He has only been practicing Xiantian Qigong for a short time, and the metal energy has been exhausted. If another person like Ding Bashan comes, it will be hard to say what will happen.
"Ding, do you want to consume 1 origin point to upgrade Xiantian Yi Qigong?"
"yes!"
An abundant gold-type energy appeared in Wang Yao's meridians and gradually merged with his internal energy, with a hint of light blue water-type energy mixed in it.
The Xiantian Qigong was accomplished to a small extent, the metal Qi was accomplished to a great extent, and the water Qi was also born.
This makes things easier. Wang Yao didn’t expect that such a difficult technique only required 1 origin point for the first upgrade.
"Well, how about you guys? Do you want to test the value of my number 901 on the Yellow List?"
Seeing that several people were still considering it, Wang Yao stepped forward and began to interrogate them.
The martial arts uniforms of these people were the same as Ding Bashan's. They all opened martial arts schools in the city, and each of them was a master who had entered the inner energy realm.
But now the strongest Ding Bashan has been defeated, what can they do? They are unwilling to accept this.
It is said that a strong dragon cannot defeat a local snake. If you want to open your Kuanglang Martial Arts School, but you don’t visit them first, isn’t that a lack of respect?
What's more, compared with the masters in the previous Yellow List, the current ones are definitely more famous, and the children of rich people are definitely more willing to send their children to the Kuanglang Martial Arts School.
No, we still have to give it a try. After a discussion, the youngest museum owner was elected.
"My name is Mo Hongyuan, let me fight you." Mo Hongyuan looked quite young and heroic, and his whole body was like a furnace.
As soon as Mo Hongyuan came out, he caused a lot of discussion because he was just over 30 years old and was on the yellow list last year.
Although it is not as high as Ding Bashan's previous ranking of over 800, it is more well-known to the general public because it is more recent.
"Master Mo, come on, we support you!"
"Mo Hongyuan, you once kicked Hengshan's legs all over Tongning Mansion. Teach that kid a lesson."
At some point, the entire courtyard wall was surrounded by people, so crowded that even the roof of the next door was filled with people.
Most of them are locals. Mo Hongyuan’s deeds last year are still circulating, so it is natural for them to support Mo Hongyuan.
