If it had been soone with a lesser reputation, like Li San, a Double Flower Red Stick, who had stood up and said the sa thing Wu Li did, they would definitely have been accused of causing trouble, even if Li San could also offer 40% of Hua Jian Security’s shares.
But the person who had spoken was Wu Li, and given Wu Li’s fa and standing in the Martial Arts World today, he truly had the right to be arrogant.
In the hall, everyone fell silent, watching Wu Li and Bai Tao in the center with either nervousness or anticipation.
Bai Tao had beco famous early on, over twenty years ago, he was a Double Flower Red Stick of Hongn, with a formidable reputation; later he beca the Hall Master of Zhigong Hall and seldom personally took action, but the few tis he did, each was more impressive than the last.
It could be said that among the older generation of Hongn experts, Bai Tao firmly held the top spot!
Over the years, there had been an awkward gap in the succession of power in the Martial Arts aspect of Hongn. Among the younger generation of Boxers, no one had yet surpassed the achievents of their predecessors, which is why so said Bai Tao was actually the number one expert of Hongn, a claim that beca more credible when Bai Tao broke through to the Grandmaster Realm.
Now, Bai Tao, the number one expert of Hongn, was about to openly face Wu Li, the most prominent figure in today’s Martial Arts World. This scene excited many of the Hongn experts present.
Today’s duel, regardless of the outco, would likely have a significant impact on Hongn!
In the center, Bai Tao collected his thoughts, with eyes fixed solely on Wu Li.
He bowed slightly, and his aura transford completely, like a tortoise and snake entwining, as all the blood and Qi in his body surged toward his Dantian.
Then, he pushed out with a single palm. As he did so, blood and Qi circulated around the Dantian, rising toward the north as if he were the True Martial God!
Boom!
The air exploded, with a series of low roars emanating from Bai Tao’s body, like muffled thunder.
Innate Gang Qi!
This was the sa technique Bai Tao had once demonstrated for Wu Li, only now, he used it again, and compared to that first ti, both the Fist Intent and the power had escalated, greatly increasing its might!
Facing the Pushing Palm from Bai Tao, Wu Li also launched a palm, as if he were pushing a mountain.
Reverse Suru!
Boom!!!
As the palms collided, a massive noise filled the hall, sounding like thunder on a clear day, causing those seated nearby to instinctively want to move away.
After one palm, Bai Tao was unaffected; he spun around like a top to Wu Li’s left side, striking toward Wu Li’s ribs with a palm.
This palm’s silent and penetrating wind was like a thrust, so swift that probably only two or three of the experts present could have withstood it.
Wu Li leaned to one side, dodging Bai Tao’s palm, then his right hand transford into a claw, reaching for Bai Tao’s wrist.
Bai Tao’s right hand did not dodge; instead, his left palm pushed toward Wu Li’s face.
This palm strike to the face was fierce, and before the palm even reached, the wind from it was already there, like a powerful gust lifting heavy snow, the bone-deep chill enveloping Wu Li’s entire body!
Wudang Palm Technique, Wind and Snow!
With this palm, Bai Tao combined it with Innate Gang Qi; his fingers moved rapidly, truly stirring up wind and snow, with chilling penetration.
Wu Li narrowed his eyes slightly, lifting his left hand to block, and diverted Bai Tao’s arm, redirecting the palm.
After that palm, Bai Tao quickly retracted his right hand, spun away from Wu Li’s grappling, then struck out with another palm.
From the beginning of the fight, this Martial Arts Grandmaster had not used any sophisticated Kung Fu, but rather the most basic Nine Palace Steps of Wudang Fist, combined with re Pushing Palm.
Yet, this simple technique, when used by Bai Tao, gave an impression of profound simplicity. He circled around Wu Li, continuously striking with increasing speed and montum!
Wu Li seed to be trapped within an invisible circle by Bai Tao, continually throwing punches to clash with him.
Their palms and arms collided, sounding like war drums on a battlefield, thunderclaps in a clear sky, resounding with dry thunder!
The experts watching this scene couldn’t help but click their tongues in appreciation, realizing that only insiders like them could understand how much explosive power was needed for each technique and move these two n exhibited! And to continue for so many moves without a mont’s pause demanded an even more terrifying physical strength!
"Old Bai still has deep Kung Fu skills."
Among the experts of Hongn, soone said softly.
Although it was hard to see just how formidable the martial arts of Wu Li and Bai Tao were, from the current situation, it was apparent that Wu Li was restrained by Bai Tao’s continuous palm techniques, only able to move within a tiny space, which was slightly precarious.
Li San, watching Wu Li make his moves, also frowned slightly, feeling that Wu Li was fighting with too much restraint.
On the field, after trading over thirty moves with Wu Li using his Innate Gang Qi, Bai Tao suddenly changed his technique.
Although it seed like he was indeed at an advantage, the influence of Wu Li’s Innate Gang Qi on him was accumulating; after ten more moves, he would need to take a breather. At that point, his moves would inevitably reveal a flaw, so he chose to change his techniques earlier.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Bai Tao’s blood and Qi surged like a raging river within his body, moving swiftly, giving the impression that it could burst forth from his body.
He violently shook both arms, pushing forward in a Stacking Palm posture toward Wu Li, as swift as lightning, raising a sudden thunderbolt from the ground!
This was Bai Tao’s self-created ultimate move, Stacked Thunder.
Faced with Bai Tao’s outburst, Wu Li also chose to burst his blood and Qi, sending it flooding towards nine essential points of his body, Transformation of Peng!
Boom!
Wu Li’s right fist collided with Bai Tao’s Stacked Palm, and in the next second, he felt his opponent employ two accumulated powers in this move, one forceful and the other suddenly bursting forth, using Inch Force to drive him back half a step.
This was the brilliance of Bai Tao’s self-created Stacked Thunder, combining one Ming Jin and one Dark Force perfectly. It was only because Wu Li’s power after using Transformation of Peng was so dominant that he was rely forced back half a step. If his power had been slightly weaker, he might have sustained an internal injury from Bai Tao’s blows.
Taking advantage of Wu Li’s half-step retreat, Bai Tao swiftly extended his arms, easing the impact of the previous force.
He had originally planned to force Wu Li into revealing a flaw with this move, then to gain the upper hand in one fell swoop, but as it turned out, Wu Li only stepped back half a step and showed no significant openings.
After breaking through to the Grandmaster Level, Bai Tao’s own confidence had reached its peak, bringing with it an attitude of unparalleled boldness, but now, after exchanging moves with Wu Li, he found himself in a challenging position, his string of techniques failing to secure any advantage.
"It seems that winning today is going to take so extra effort!"
Bai Tao thought to himself, as his palm technique suddenly changed, becoming gentle and supple, no longer clashing directly with Wu Li as before.
Having confird that defeating Wu Li would not be easy, he switched tactics, preserving his strength while maintaining pressure on Wu Li.
However, after a few moves, Wu Li suddenly spoke, "Hall Master Bai, is that all there is to your Wudang Fist?"
"Hmm?"
The experts present, all with keen hearing, heard Wu Li’s words but did not understand his intention.
Did he still have energy to spare?
Bai Tao responded with a cold laugh, "So Master Wu also likes to score points with words. If my Wudang Fist is as you say, then why not enlighten with a demonstration of your Xingyi Fist?"
Wu Li nodded slightly.
"As you wish."
