CapĂtulo 1817: Chapter 1740: Wu Family Tai Chi Fist (Part 3)
Sun Haichang saw that Old Master Wu had been defeated and decided not to hold back, starting with a lethal move.
But Song Xiaodong remained calm and unhurried.
Because Song Xiaodong had also trained in Bajiquan, and he liked it very much, but Bajiquan could easily cause bodily harm, so Xiaodongâs mentor didnât let him continue practicing.
When Song Xiaodong fought, he rarely used Bajiquan, because one punch could be lethal.
Song Xiaodong thrust both hands forward, pushing Sun Haichangâs hands upwards, as Sun Haichang landed a blow, smashing down towards him.
Song Xiaodong followed up with Bajiquanâs Five Mountains Skyward Cone, using sheer bodily power without True Qi, clashing directly with Sun Haichang.
âBang!â It was like two cars colliding, Song Xiaodongâs and Sun Haichangâs clothes whipped around dramatically, causing nearby people to instinctively step back, as a chilly breeze blew past.
Sun Haichang was shocked back two steps, while Song Xiaodongâs foot cracked two red bricks.
âSame sect?â Sun Haichang was also somewhat surprised, because Song Xiaodong used a Bajiquan move.
âFortunate to have studied it for a few years, but my martial power is not profound.â
âGood lad, you have insight, letâs go again.â
Sun Haichang, a bit excited, unleashed another move, Propping Hammer, Arrow Evasion Technique, striking directly at Song Xiaodongâs chest. Xiaodong felt a chill as a gust of wind hit him, quickly executing a Supporting Window move to lift Sun Haichangâs elbow. Sun Haichang twisted his body and followed with Mountain Splitting Palm, swinging his other arm towards Song Xiaodongâs throat.
This move, Mountain Splitting Palm, is a special technique of Bajiquan. Despite the name, the first strike isnât with the palm, but rather using the waistâs strength to twist the body, like a crocodileâs death roll when biting prey, simultaneously sweeping the enemyâs throat with the elbow.
Faced with the fierce elbow strike, itâs impossible to withstand the momentum, inevitably forcing retreat, at which point the arm extends, dramatically increasing attack range, chopping at the throat with a hand blade, certainly leaving no chance to dodge, instantly rendering one powerless to resist.
âMountain Splitting Palm!â Some martial artists nearby noticed the technique.
âThis Mountain Splitting Palm is indeed a specialty of Bajiquan. Many Bajiquan sect members dominate the Martial World with just this move, winning battles across the land.â
âThis time the kid is finished, definitely his throat bone will be shattered, and he wonât be able to eat or speak properly in the future.â
âHmph, told you to be arrogant, told you to ignore everyone, now you can see me, right?â Yang Chunlai gritted his teeth.
Having learned it, Song Xiaodong naturally knew the danger of this move.
Chapter 1742: Joining Forces
Although Sun Haichang used this move, he knew inevitably someone could be seriously injured, so he focused more on speed than power, wanting to see how Song Xiaodong would counter it.
The two were no longer sparring, but simply exchanging moves between sect members.
Song Xiaodong noticed Sun Haichang holding back, testing him, understanding that this move couldnât be countered by retreating, so he grounded himself in a horse stance, ducking his head below the Mountain Splitting Palm, executing Bear Squat, using the solid body pressure to collide with Sun Haichang, simultaneously grabbing one of Sun Haichangâs legs. Sun Haichangâs upper body was hit, his leg was captured, and he fell down completely.
âWhat?â
The crowd was bewildered, wondering how the situation suddenly changed so drastically?
This Mountain Splitting Palm could have shattered Song Xiaodongâs throat, so how did Sun Haichang end up knocked down?
âHahahaha!â Sun Haichang sat on the ground, laughing heartily, his laughter sounded like thunder, causing discomfort in the ears of those around, chest vibrating, completely different from his previous out-of-breath struggle.
Song Xiaodong rarely offered a hand to Sun Haichang.
Sun Haichang glanced at Song Xiaodong, extending his hand for Xiaodong to help him up.
âRemarkable youth!â Sun Haichang looked at Song Xiaodong with appreciation.
The two were of the same sect, and Song Xiaodong had floored Sun Haichang with Bajiquan techniques, improving Sun Haichangâs impression of Xiaodong. With such an outstanding figure from Bajiquan, Sun Haichang shared in the glory.
âI concede!â Sun Haichang gave Song Xiaodong a respectful fist salute, Song Xiaodong returned the gesture, and Sun Haichang retreated into the crowd.
âBrother Lei, this one belongs to our Eight Extremes School, his skills are superior, I concede, I canât interfere with your affairs.â Sun Haichang finished speaking and headed down the mountain.
âHey, Brother SunâŠâ Brother Lei glanced at Sun Haichang, intending to catch up.
âBrother Lei, the wind is strong on this mountain, this old fellow canât bear it, settle your scores slowly, Iâm leaving too, Brother Sun, wait for me.â Seeing Sun Haichang departing, Wu Yunfei decided to leave as well.
âHow can you both be so disrespectful? A mere youngster has scared you two experts away without a backward glance, itâll be a laughingstock if others hear of this!â Brother Lei was angry.
Yet the two acted as if they hadnât heard, directly continuing down the mountain.
âTheyâre all National Arts masters, adhering to Martial World rules, but youâve crossed Yang Chunlai and me, this is a matter of the streets, it follows street rules, attack him!â
Left behind were some reckless youths of lesser rank, unable to understand the fight on stage. Seeing four individual confrontations lost, thinking thereâs no fight, they felt disappointed, but Brother Lei shouted to attack together, so they rushed forward.
âThis is the third time youâve come looking for trouble, if youâre not afraid to regret it, come at me!â Song Xiaodong showed a fierce expression.
âYou can deal one-on-one, with so many people here, who are you trying to intimidate?â some young men expressed disdain.
âQuit dawdling, beat him!â Yang Chunlai shouted.
This time was different from the previous encounters, Brother Lei and Yang Chunlai had brought trained fighters, knowledgeable in some martial arts, entirely separate from the level of thugs Chunlai had previously brought.
