CHAPTER 1340 SOMEONE BETTER
Fang Qiu could accept being defeated by Jiang Ning because it was clear that Jiang Ning had understood the Extreme Fist Technique and knew how the true essence of boxing.
But this man here was someone whose name was not known and he had never heard of this guy?
On top of that, how could bajiquan be compared to the Extreme Fist Technique he learnt?
He mumbled to himself, "Could Jiang Ning have been right? The Fang family's understanding of the manual was wrong to begin with...”
He lifted his head violently. "That's impossible!"
Fang Qiu gave a loud shout like he had gone crazy and made a mad dash across again.
SWOOSH!
SWOOSH!
SWOOSH!
The few old men moved even faster than Fang Qiu and stopped him from advancing.
"The winner is clear, so you are not allowed to fight anymore."
"But..."
"Young man, there's always a mountain beyond the one we see and more humans than the ones we know, so there's always someone better than us. The martial arts circle may be on the decline, but it's not completely gone," said one of the old men who was here as a judge for the competition. "Do you understand what I'm saying?"
Fang Qiu felt like someone had splashed cold water on him and he was feeling cold all over.
There was always someone better?
He was from a reclusive clan. Did he need someone to educate him like this?
That had to be a joke!
Fang Qiu looked at the old men. "But I'm not happy about this loss."
"Neither is any of them over there.”
An old man laughed as he pointed at all the opponents that Fang Qiu eliminated.
Fang Qiu looked at all of them, then turned to look up at Jiang Ning sitting in the stands.
He suddenly felt like he knew what Jiang Ning was trying to do.
But even so, he could hardly believe that Jiang Ning was being so ambitious!
Was he nuts?
Jiang Ning looked down as well. Their eyes met and Jiang Ning's gaze was especially calm, as if Fang Qiu was nothing to him.
"I will come back and challenge you again," said Fang Qiu before walking off.
"This fellow is still indignant,” scoffed Brother Gou. "He's just like a flower grown in a greenhouse. Even though he's an advanced grandmaster, he might not come back alive if he goes to a real battle."
Knowing the right set of moves was completely different from having to fight others to death.
"Brother Gou, that's not necessarily true. Flowers that are grown in a greenhouse are the ones that look pretty," commented Su Yun with an infatuated look on her face. "And looking pretty is all that matters."
Brother Gou didn't want to talk anymore.
What was the point of being good looking?
Men ought to be tough!
Jiang Ning couldn't be bothered with their bickering.
Since everything was over, he wanted to bring Lin Yuzhen home.
The martial arts competition had gone through five days of competing and the champion had finally emerged. This winner had hidden his abilities well and nobody would even take a second glance at him in a crowd.
The winner was Xu Gang, the man who defeated Fang Qiu and a true disciple of bajiquan!
Xu Gang was very humble, but his abilities were so powerful that even Tan Xing was surprised. So a really highly skilled fighter in martial arts still existed!
"I promised, so I'll hold up my end of the agreement." Jiang Ning passed one page of the manual to Xu Gang in front of everyone.
"Thank you, Mr Jiang."
Xu Gang bowed slightly. He was normally a steady person, but his hands trembled slightly as he took the page from Jiang Ning and he gulped.
He had a look of disbelief on his face.
This was such an important thing but Jiang Ning was so careless about it?
The page was all crumple!
He took a look at it and immediately frowned. He looked up at Jiang Ning and looked like he had doubts about whether this page was really a technique manual at all.
"Master?" Xu Gang turned to look at his own master, as if he couldn't be sure himself.
"You're the champion of the competition, so you're the only one eligible to look at it. You don't have to be suspicious. Jiang Ning is someone of high standing and he won't cheat you."
Xu Gang nodded. He studied the page over and over, but the more he looked at it, the more tightly he furrowed his brows.
It was as if the page was a bottomless pit.
Looking at it sucked him in completely!
After a long time, Xu Gang took a deep breath and his entire body was perspiring.
"Mr Jiang, this is really too terrifying. I...I can't understand it...”All content is © N0velDrama.Org.
