Who said I practiced the exercises incorrectly?

Chapter 19 Yes, it is me! (Two in one)

Xiaoyuan Gate, outer courtyard.

The Chen family arrived as promised.

The leader was Chen Hongyuan, the eldest son of the Chen family.

He has a square face, big ears, and is dressed in tight clothes. He looks very heroic and one can tell at first glance that he is an extraordinary person.

The men in the yard all looked at him sideways.

"Nephew Chen, I haven't seen you for a long time. You look even more charming than before."

"Master Yuan, thank you for your praise. I am honored to see you again."

In response to Yuan Tianhuan's proactive greeting, Chen Hongyuan bowed and smiled, with an extremely humble expression on his face.

After some greetings, the two sides were about to walk to a seat nearby and sit down, but Chen Hongyuan suddenly stopped.

He looked at Ning Yan who was standing nearby, and a hint of joy suddenly appeared on his face:
"Brother Ning, I didn't expect to see you here.

After we parted at Xiaocang Mountain, I kept wondering when you would come to see me, but in the end I never saw you.

That won’t do, we have an appointment to drink together, you can’t keep putting it off until next year.”

Yuan Tianhuan and others were quite surprised. They didn't expect that Ning Yan actually knew Chen Hongyuan.

Chen Hongyuan explained with a smile:
"I led a team into the mountains to suppress bandits before, and Brother Ning saved my sister twice. He is a great benefactor of my Chen family."

Hearing this, the people around him immediately stood in awe.

Chen Hongyuan is the leader of the younger generation of the Chen family. His sister Chen Jingxuan is undoubtedly also a direct descendant and the apple of the Chen family's eye.

Since the Chen family has done such a great favor, any normal person would want to build a relationship with them.

But he didn't take it seriously at all and had no intention of repaying the favor at all.

The big men around were all impressed by Ning Yan's noble character.

Even Yuan Tianhuan and others looked at Ning Yan with admiration.

Ever since Ning Yan became their disciple, they have never heard Ning Yan mention this matter in such a long time.

Not even the kind of bragging that comes with small talk.

It can be seen that he really didn't take this matter to heart.

"Mr. Chen, you are too kind to me. I am just too busy these days. I will definitely come to your house when I have free time."

Ning Yan replied immediately.

"It's better to do it today than to wait for a better day. Let's do it tonight at Guangju Tower. Don't delay any longer."

Chen Hongyuan made the agreement on the spot, and Chen Jingxuan beside him also winked at him.

Guangju Building?
That was a luxurious restaurant where a meal cost at least a hundred taels, and all the ingredients used were precious, even including some very rare meats of exotic monsters.

The people around were immediately very envious.

Ning Yan nodded, agreeing.

Both parties took their seats and soon began today's boxing competition.

Fighting boxing can be said to be a traditional event of Xiaoyuanmen, and it is basically held every two or three months.

Firstly, it is to exchange skills and broaden horizons; secondly, it is to show off power and attract apprentices.

Without much delay, a young man in his early twenties walked straight out of the Chen family team and strode onto the field.

This man was thin, with long arms and legs, and wore a green cloth robe. He had a calm temperament and looked difficult to deal with.

Ning Yan immediately stood up upon seeing this, but Meng Kun beside him held his shoulders down:

"Junior Brother Ning, this Chen Shi is an old acquaintance of mine, so let me come."

As he said this, he walked straight towards the field.

The two sides stood still, their auras connected. Chen Shi looked at Meng Kun, slightly surprised:
"I didn't expect that you have successfully broken through to the Qi Condensation stage after not seeing you for a while."

"Fortunately, I'm not bad either."

As he spoke, he clenched his right hand violently, and a surge of momentum suddenly burst out from his body. It turned out that he was also a person who had gathered Qi, and was even slightly better than Meng Kun.

"Not bad, not bad. It seems that you didn't waste time after the last battle. This is exactly what I want."

Meng Kun grinned, used the Thunder Palm stance, and rushed forward.

Chen Shi did not meet the enemy head-on, but instead slid sideways with graceful steps.

The scene looked quite funny with one of them attacking and the other dodging.

However, except for those short-sighted outer courtyard apprentices, they might laugh at it.

The expressions of the would-be warriors in the inner courtyard, including Ning Yan and others, were all very solemn.

The strength and speed displayed by these two people in their actions were extremely powerful.

Quasi-warriors have no power to resist at all. Even if a warrior in the Yuanqi realm fights against him, he can only last a few rounds at most.

Ning Yan was more concerned about Chen Shi's body movements.

This body movement is called "Piao Miao Bu" and is the Chen family's inherited martial art. Many of the Chen family's children have practiced it.

He had seen Chen Hongyuan use this set of skills during the battle between Chen Hongyuan and Six-Fingered Zhu Wu that day.

At that time he was only shocked and had no extra thoughts to think about anything else, but now he has been able to roughly understand the true meaning of it.

The Piaomiao Step is characterized by agility and elegance, its movements are mysterious and elusive, and its speed is extremely fast. If the opponent makes a mistake in reaction, they will seize the opportunity.

Of course, many people may think that since the disciples of Xiaoyuan Sect have practiced the hard skill of "Iron Body Kung Fu", they should be able to withstand the attack of the children of the Chen family.

But it just so happens that in addition to the "Piao Miao Bu", the Chen family also has another technique called "Po Song Finger".

According to Master Yuan, this is a special martial art that focuses on training finger strength. When practiced to a high level, the finger strength is as strong as steel and can pierce through pine trees from a distance.

Although people like Chen Shi cannot gather energy to the point where the force leaves the body, it will definitely be uncomfortable if it falls on the body.

It was precisely because of these two martial arts that the Xiao Yuan Sect often lost more than it won when fighting against the Chen family in the past.

Watching the battle on the field, Ning Yan couldn't help but calm down.

Although it is more difficult to comprehend without the specific skills, he only needs to watch such battles a hundred times at most, and he will be able to understand the "Piao Miao Bu" and "Po Song Finger" and start practicing on his own.

Even if he didn't see it so many times, the implications he gained from it would be of great help to him in deducing other skills in the future.

While Ning Yan was gaining insights, the others around him were also watching the battle attentively.

The Chen family and their group were all full of confidence, as if they had already seen the outcome of the battle.

Originally, their Chen family's martial arts were quite restraining to Xiao Yuan Sect. Now Chen Shi's realm was slightly higher than Meng Kun's. In addition, he had just mastered the [Cloud Traces and Ten Thousand Shadows] in the [Piao Miao Bu] not long ago. How could they lose this round?
Sure enough, just as they expected, Chen Shi evaded Meng Kun for a long time and finally made Meng Kun reveal a flaw. Chen Shi stretched out his hand and touched Meng Kun's side without hesitation.

"when!"

When the finger pointed, there was a sudden clanging sound like hitting fine steel.

The smile on Chen Shi's face froze immediately.

Meng Kun slapped him on the chest with his backhand and knocked him out of the court.

Seeing this scene, everyone in the Chen family couldn't help but look at each other.

What on earth just happened?
Didn’t that finger hit the mark?
Logically speaking, I have just entered the stage of gathering Qi, and my side skin is not yet black, so how can I defend against it?

The Chen family was puzzled and their heads were full of question marks.

Chen Shi walked off the stage holding his finger which was swollen like a carrot, grimacing in pain and raising his eyebrows.

He quickly took out the medicine powder for external application, but before he could finish, he was surrounded by the Chen family.

Everyone asked him about the situation on the field, but Chen Shi just kept shaking his head with a wry smile on his face. In fact, even he himself found it unbelievable that he lost just now.

If he didn't know Meng Kun well, he would have almost thought that the other party had a piece of black iron plate under his abdomen.

But if it wasn't a black iron plate, why would his abdomen be so hard?

While the Chen family was confused, Yuan Tianhuan was smiling and looked proud.

He smiled and asked Chen Hongyuan:
"Nephew Chen, who are you going to send into the second round?"

Chen Hongyuan glanced at Chen Shi's carrot-shaped fingers, then glanced at the surrounding Chen family members, only to see evasive faces.

In the past, when the Chen family faced off against the Xiao Yuan clan, everyone rushed to the front and was full of energy, fearing that they would not be able to play.

After all, the opponent's skills are restrained by our side, who doesn't want to show off?
The result is now better.

The disciples of Xiaoyuan Sect have mastered a new method.

The way they were used to no longer worked.

Everyone began to shrink back.

Some people will do things that bring them honor, but everyone would like to avoid things that will make them lose face.

Chen Hongyuan was angry at his lack of resistance and immediately ordered:

"Meng Nan, I leave it to you!"

"Master, do you really want me to go up?"

Chen Mengnan was surprised:

"Isn't it a bit of bullying to let me play?"

Chen Hongyuan turned his head and looked at Yuan Tianhuan:

"What does Yuanshi think?"

Yuan Tianhuan glanced at Chen Mengnan and nodded slowly:
"I think it's okay."

Zhu Kexin immediately showed a constipated expression.

No!
Can't! !

You really can’t!

He roared madly in his heart.

"What do you think, Kexin?"

Zhu Kexin smiled softly:
"of course can."

The two of them appeared immediately.

Seeing this, the spectators all became excited.

Zhu Kexin is the third disciple of Yuanshi. As a senior Qi Gathering expert, he is now not far from the level of Qi Bursting.

Chen Mengnan, a genius of the Chen family whose talent is no less than that of Chen Hongyuan, has now reached the peak of Qi Gathering and has even stepped half a foot into the Qi Raging State, firmly suppressing Zhu Kexin.

This one was definitely much more exciting than the previous one, and the onlookers all perked up.

After entering the stage, Chen Mengnan looked at Zhu Kexin opposite him and said:
"I didn't expect you, a woman like you, would be so brave to fight me."

Zhu Kexin smiled shyly after hearing this:
"If you can praise me, praise me more."

Chen Mengnan was slightly startled, goose bumps suddenly appeared all over his body, and his fists immediately stiffened.

"Fuck, how could I meet a pervert like you? Get off!"

Chen Mengnan roared and stomped his feet on the ground, causing the hard bluestone slab to shatter immediately.

He rushed towards Zhu Kexin as fast as thunder and lightning, with an extremely violent momentum, which was completely contrary to the lightness of "Piao Miao Bu". Instead, it revealed a terrifying murderous intent of rushing forward bravely, making the onlookers around him turn pale and have difficulty breathing.

Facing Chen Mengnan's powerful attack, Zhu Kexin did not dodge. Instead, he raised his Thunder Palm and went straight forward to meet him.

The two sides collided with each other on the spot without any fancy moves, and exchanged dozens of moves in a matter of seconds, with a series of dense explosions like frying beans.

Some would-be warriors who have not yet developed their vital energy can only see the phantoms of the attacks, and can hardly even tell which parts of the body are being attacked.

Ning Yan's eyes widened, revealing an unprecedented brilliance in his eyes, and he eagerly absorbed the different style and meaning of "Piao Miao Bu" displayed by Chen Mengnan in the battle.

The battle between the two sides reached its climax right at the beginning, and each side tried their best to decide the outcome in the shortest time possible.

In contrast, Chen Mengnan focuses on attack and Zhu Kexin focuses on defense.

However, "Iron Body Kung Fu" is good at defense, and this kind of battle situation is undoubtedly more favorable to Zhu Kexin. It somewhat eliminated some of his fears before going on the court, and he became more and more comfortable with it.

On the other hand, Chen Mengnan originally planned to use his realm advantage to quickly establish victory with a furious attitude and win the game.

Unexpectedly, Zhu Kexin's resilience was beyond his expectations. Frequent heavy blows fell on him, but were blocked by him one by one.

Logically speaking, even if he failed to cultivate the black skin, he still failed to break it.

It was not until he saw Zhu Kexin's calf suddenly turn dark when the attack landed that Chen Mengnan instantly realized that the "Iron Body Skill" no longer had the original regional restrictions. Now the defense comparable to that of a tortoise shell can appear anywhere - even if that part had not been able to develop black skin before.

Moreover, he vaguely felt that the opponent's defense seemed to be much stronger than the conventional "Iron Body Kung Fu". He pointed his finger at the opponent's cheek, but apart from the slight pain in his finger, only a trace of white mark was left on the opponent's face.

I didn't know and thought he had clicked on the black iron.

When did the disciples of Xiaoyuan Sect become so shameless? !
Chen Mengnan unwillingly aimed at several parts of Zhu Kexin's body, including his chin, collarbone, toes, etc., but still failed.

Zhu Kexin also wanted to defeat Chen Mengnan, but his actual combat experience was indeed insufficient and he could not compare with Chen Mengnan. The few times he took action actually left him with many flaws. If it were not for his Iron Body Kung Fu, he might have lost.

Neither of them could do anything to the other, and with their energy greatly depleted, they were both exhausted and out of breath, and it seemed that the battle was about to turn into an ugly stalemate.

Yuan Tianhuan looked at Chen Hongyuan next to him and asked:

"Nephew Chen, let's call this a draw. What do you think?"

Chen Hongyuan nodded without much hesitation.

After all, a boxing match is not a life-and-death fight. Although it involves a crucial bet, a draw is enough.

They have already uncovered the secrets of Xiao Yuan Sect's martial arts.

As long as they win the next game and drag the game into overtime, victory will be theirs in the end.

You can also get generous profits set in advance from gambling.

With the help of Yuan Tianhuan and Chen Hongyuan, the second game ended in a draw.

Chen Mengnan walked off the stage with a look of reluctance on his face, while Zhu Kexin, on the other hand, had a look of relief on his face.

He wiped the sweat from his forehead, and his clothes stuck to his increasingly muscular chest, which made several big men fall in love with him for a moment.

"Fuck, that's a man, that's a man!"

A big man slapped his companion's butt hard.

The two almost came to blows.

"Then in the third round, according to the agreement, we can only send out one player with less than Qi concentration."

Chen Hongyuan gave Yuan Tianhuan a sly smile.

Yuan Tianhuan glanced at the Chen family's team and frowned slightly:
"Could it be that your sister will appear in the third round?"

"That's right, it's you!"

Chen Jingxuan stepped forward.

Yuan Tianhuan looked at Ning Yan.

Ning Yan twitched his lips and walked out as well.
