Chapter 542: Chapter 506: Misleading the Young

Zhang Yang’s words surprised many people; after all, the other party was also a long-established boxer, and making such a request in such a public setting was truly unexpected.

"Could it be that the Beidao Association deliberately arranged for someone to boost Wu Li’s reputation?"

Since Zhang Yang was from the Beidao Association, many people now speculated whether the Beidao Association had intentionally staged this event to boost Wu Li’s reputation. After all, Master Zhang publicly making such a request to Wu Li really gave Wu Li a lot of face.

"Wow, awesome."

"Wu Li is already a grandmaster."

"He sure is. Anyone who can write ’Modern National Martial Arts Record’ and ’National Martial Arts Practical Combat Record’ deserves the title of grandmaster!"

"I wonder if Wu Li can complete the technique?"

"He definitely can."

...

The netizens in the live broadcast were also discussing vigorously.

Wu Li recalled the move Zhang Yang had just used, then he said, "How about Master Zhang you perform it once more for me to see?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yang quickly nodded, "Okay!"

So he extended his hands, his ten fingers like iron hooks, while at the same time, his shoulder blades raised high, tensing his muscles and sending power through them. He spread his arms wide like an eagle spreading its wings and struck down at the air in front, ferociously grabbing forward. Then his fingers rapidly tore through the air, creating a series of afterimages, looking truly like an eagle diving from the high skies to shred its prey!

Such an eagle form alarmed the boxers in the audience; many felt that if they faced this move, they would find it hard to defend against.

Wu Li watched once, then made his move, his hands also taking the shape of eagle claws, swiftly tearing at the air in front of him.

His movements seemed identical to those of Zhang Yang just recently, as if he had learned the other’s ultimate move after just one observation. But in reality, the essence of Zhang Yang’s move was not in its outer form, but in the internal muscle power and the circulation of qi and blood; it was impossible for someone to learn it just by watching once.

However, Wu Li’s actions shocked Zhang Yang. After mimicking the move the first time, Wu Li used only one hand the second time, and he greatly simplified the movements. As he continued, Wu Li’s gestures became simpler yet more profoundly similar; the expressions on Zhang Yang’s face grew more and more astonished.

On Wu Li’s first attempt, the form was only partially similar. As he made it simpler, it started to closely resemble the essence, and finally, when he struck with his claw, he pulled a few afterimages through the air before pausing in front of Zhang Yang.

"What, what is this?"

Zhang Yang widened his eyes, his expression excited.

He stepped onto the stage today with the intention of making this request to Wu Li, partly to boost Wu Li’s reputation, but he also sincerely wished to complete the missing ultimate move, as it was his master’s final wish before passing away.

Over the years, Zhang Yang had been earnestly researching this move, dedicating countless efforts to fulfill his master’s last wish, becoming almost an obsession. So the words he had said to Wu Li just now were heartfelt—if Wu Li could help him complete the move, he was willing to pay any price!

Originally, Zhang Yang thought that even if Wu Li agreed, it would involve detailed discussions and exchanges between them afterward, slowly perfecting the move. He never expected Wu Li to start completing it on the spot? And Wu Li’s last attempt shone a new light for Zhang Yang; the manner of power exertion and overall feel were very close to the perfect state he had envisioned for the move!

"Master Zhang."

Wu Li withdrew his right hand, "Your eagle form primarily utilizes the Splitting Fist Power, also incorporating the explosive power of Cannon Fist and the Charging Force of Drilling Fist. The key is not in the cooperation of the shoulder blades when transferring power but in the circulation of qi and blood in the fingers. If I’m not mistaken, does this move also integrate some principles of the Yoga big handprint?"

Zhang Yang nodded vigorously, excitedly saying, "Exactly, exactly! My master once mentioned that our lineage’s ultimate moves borrowed some principles from the Yoga big handprint!"

After speaking, he looked towards Wu Li with eyes filled with respect and admiration.

To be able to discern so much after only watching twice, and to develop the move to a level he hadn’t achieved despite years of practice—it was truly shocking the kind of realm and power Wu Li had reached!

The audience was also stirred. If not for Zhang Yang’s genuine demeanor, suggesting he wasn’t acting, everyone would suspect that Wu Li might have colluded with him in advance.

"Derived on the spot?"

"How can there be such a person..."

"No wonder he could reach such a realm at such a young age, truly a rare talent!"

"Rumor has it that his two martial arts books included more than a dozen different martial arts, with very complete lineages. I thought it was because of his extensive family knowledge, but now it seems that many contents of the books were probably derived by himself!"

...

The boxers in the audience were discussing among themselves, looking at Wu Li as if they were looking at an immortal.

The higher the realm of the boxer, the more they understood how frightening what Wu Li had just done was, comparable to the awe of scholars witnessing Cao Zhi compose a poem in seven steps.

"I’ve only thought this much for now; let’s continue our discussion after stepping down," Wu Li told Zhang Yang.

"Okay, okay, okay!"

Zhang Yang eagerly nodded, his face full of joy—as if years of longing were about to be fulfilled.

"Hmph! Leading people astray!"

Just as the two were about to leave the stage, a voice suddenly rang out; it was Zhang Daolong who had spoken out of the blue.

He used the power of Sound Strike when he spoke, so the words "Leading people astray" echoed in the room, audible to everyone.

The room quickly fell silent, and everyone looked up in astonishment towards Zhang Daolong, who was sitting in the front row.

On stage, Wu Li also furrowed his brows and turned to look at Zhang Daolong, "Instructor Zhang, why would you say such a thing?"

Zhang Daolong stood up, his expression aloof as he looked at Wu Li, "You’re heading in the wrong direction with your deduction, which is why I said you’re leading people astray."

After his words, the room erupted into murmurs of shock, as people exchanged bewildered glances, not expecting such an issue to suddenly arise in Hua Jian Security.

"Who is this person?"

"He’s from Hua Jian Security, isn’t he? Why would he oppose Wu Li?"

"Such bold claims? Is he more skilled than Wu Li?"

"Master Zhang already approved it, why would this guy come out and spout nonsense?"

...

The netizens in the live broadcast were also bewildered.

On stage, Zhang Yang looked towards Zhang Daolong, "Instructor, the technique Master Wu just deduced seemed correct to me, and it inspired me greatly. If you don’t understand Xingyi, please refrain from making careless remarks."

"I don’t understand Xingyi?"

Zhang Daolong retorted with a sneer crossing his face.

He suddenly extended his right hand, and as he activated his energy, his originally fair skin turned a dark blue, his muscles swelling and his joints popping loudly.

Swoosh!

Zhang Daolong demonstrated a move towards Zhang Yang. The movement looked very similar to Wu Li’s last action, also a rapid tearing claw strike in the air.

"I don’t understand?"

After demonstrating, Zhang Daolong asked Zhang Yang.

Zhang Yang’s eyes widened in disbelief as he looked at Zhang Daolong, "This is..."
