Rise from a Poor Family: My Martial Arts Counterattack

Chapter 120: Arrogant Zhang Qi (Second update, please subscribe)
Wu Zhengsi!
At this moment, Tai Rubai was as anxious as an ant on hot pan.

Lin Chen hasn't come back for two nights.

Yesterday, the county fight between Degao County and Yudong County ended, and today it is the turn of Poyang County and Qianshan County.

"Sir, why don't we apply to the Military Affairs Department to delay it for another day?" Zeng Qingyao suggested.

"No."

Su Lingchuan waved his hand and postponed it for one day. There were already many opinions from Degao County and Yudong County. If it was postponed further, it would only make the counties more dissatisfied with Poyang County.

Compared to the county fight, he now cares more about Lin Chen's whereabouts.

The only thing that reassured him was that Lin Chen's safety should be fine. Lin Chen was asked to go away by Jiang Qing, and he was familiar with Jiang Qing's background, so he would not encounter any trouble in Raozhou Prefecture.

"But Lin Chen is not here. I'm afraid our county will lose this county fight."

"We lost, so what? Poyang County can afford to lose. Losing a game can arouse the fighting spirit of the students, which is not a bad thing."

Su Lingchuan had no choice but to comfort everyone in this way. He had no dissatisfaction with Lin Chen. From what Tai Rubai conveyed to Lin Chen, that Lin Chen was willing to take the Tongqiao Pill for his own sake, he knew that Lin Chen would never miss the county fight unless there was something he couldn't get away for.

Thinking of the Jiang Mansion and the origins of Mr. Jiang, Su Lingchuan actually had a guess in his mind.

There are only two possibilities that can delay Lin Chen: his realm breakthrough or his technique breakthrough has reached a critical moment and he cannot be distracted to interrupt.

"Tell the students to go to the training grounds."

Su Lingchuan made the final decision, and the heads of each hall had to gather their students. When Fu Jingya and others gathered, they saw that Lin Chen was not there, and there was confusion in their eyes.

Why isn’t Senior Brother Lin here?
Everyone's eyes turned to Gu Shan and Fu Ang. Gu Shan pursed his lips and remained silent, while Fu Ang smiled bitterly. He did not expect that Senior Brother Lin would be away for two nights.

When dry wood meets fire, the situation becomes out of control?

Brother Lin, you shouldn’t be this kind of person.

"Let's go."

Zeng Qingyao glanced at everyone and spoke lightly, without explaining why Lin Chen was not there.

As for Su Lingchuan, as the director of the Military Administration Institute, he naturally would not enter with the students.

A martial arts arena.

The martial arts arena of the Wuzheng Institute not only covers a huge area, but also has high platforms and chairs on all four sides. It was originally the venue for the provincial examinations, and it provided seats for martial artists watching the battles.

On the viewing platform, all the students from other martial arts schools in the counties were present.

Logically, the competition between Poyang County and Qianshan County would not have attracted so many students, but because of the delay, students from other counties were very dissatisfied with the two counties and all came to watch the show.

In addition to students from various counties, many warriors from the city also came to watch the battle.

Those who can come to the Military Affairs Department to watch the battle are at least practitioners of Zang martial arts. Those below that are not qualified to come in unless they are taking the prefectural examination.

The students from Poyang County and Qianshan County entered the venue almost at the same time. The two sides looked at each other and returned to their own areas.

"Strange, why can't I see Lin Chen?"

"Are you afraid of losing and dare not fight?"

Zhu Tao hated Lin Chen, but as soon as he said this, even though they were from the same county, the students from Qianshan County looked at him as if he were a fool.

Afraid of losing and not daring to fight?
Don't you think before you say this?

Zhang Qi and Shen Ge looked at each other, with confusion in their eyes. In the entire Poyang County, the only person they could regard as an opponent was Lin Chen.

If Lin Chen did not show up, this county fight would be extremely easy for them.

Outside the Military Administration Hall.

Jiang Qing looked at Su Lingchuan: "Master Su, this is the situation. If possible, it would be best to postpone the duel until Lin Chen returns."

"No need."

Su Lingchuan shook his head. Seeing Jiang Qing's puzzled expression, he smiled and explained, "It's just a county fight. I can afford to lose. In comparison, the good news you brought me makes me more happy than winning the county fight."

The fusion of two entry-level martial arts techniques!

Good man, if these words had not come from Jiang Qing's mouth, and Jiang Qing also told him that it was Senior Sister Li Wan from Santan Mountain who made the judgment, if it was anyone else, he would have slapped them in the face. Do you think I am so easily fooled?

As an entry-level strong man, Su Lingchuan personally knew what the fusion of the two techniques meant. If the fusion was successful, it would not be the creation of a new technique, but only the improvement of the grade of the technique.

The fusion of two low-grade skills is as powerful as a mid-grade skill.

Even if Lin Chen failed this time, it would still be of great help to Lin Chen's comprehension of martial arts.

Now Su Lingchuan admired his teacher's vision even more. He was indeed short-sighted. Fortunately, he reflected on himself in time and treated Lin Chen sincerely instead of out of utilitarianism.

"If Miss Jiang wants to watch the fight, you can go directly to the martial arts arena. I will go in first."

Watching Su Lingchuan enter the hall, Jiang Qing felt helpless. She had already entered the martial arts academy in advance and could not fight on behalf of Jingshui Martial Arts School, otherwise it would break the balance.

……

……

A quarter of an hour later, a large group of martial arts masters, led by Qiu Rufeng, appeared in the training ground.

The arrival of the Director of the Military Administration Department in person made the students present excited, even though they had already met this Director of the Military Administration Department and so many martial arts masters yesterday.

"Who is Lin Chen?"

After Qiu Rufeng took his seat, he glanced at the Poyang County student area and asked in a deep voice.

It didn't matter that he asked this question. The other powerful people around him all had a question in their minds: Who is Lin Chen?

Even though the Military Administration Department issued an official document, the deeds of Lin Chen and Yu Yongnian were mostly publicized within the martial arts hall. The strong men present had long since left the martial arts hall and were not officials in the Military Administration Department system, so they naturally did not know about this. "Director, Lin Chen is not here today." Su Lingchuan on the side hurriedly replied.

Qiu Rufeng glanced at his disciple, but did not continue to ask. He just said calmly: "In this case, let the duel begin."

On the contrary, Zhang Wangshan and other directors of the Wuzheng Institute on the other side looked at Su Lingchuan with confusion. The competition between Poyang County and Qianshan County was postponed for one day because Lin Chen took the Tongqiao Pill. As a result, Lin Chen, the person involved, did not participate in the county competition?
Not participating in the county fight, but taking Tongqiao Dan?
What exactly is Su Lingchuan up to?

In the martial arts arena, the atmosphere began to become solemn as a powerful warrior from the Military Affairs Department started to speak.

The fight between Degao County and Yudong County yesterday was fierce. Everyone present saw it, and not a single student was uninjured.

"Today's fight is definitely not as good as yesterday's. After all, the overall strength of Poyang County and Qianshan County is not as good as yesterday's two counties."

"Not necessarily. Zhang Qi and Shen Ge from Qianshan County are both strong. This fight is still worth watching."

While the students from various counties who were watching the battle were discussing, Zhang Qi did not hesitate and walked to the center of the training ground first.

"Zhang Qi from Qianshan County is willing to exchange ideas with ten fellow apprentices from Poyang County!"

Wow!
As soon as Zhang Qi said this, there was an uproar at the scene, mainly caused by the students from various counties who were watching the game.

They had thought that this round of fighting would be a one-on-many situation, but they didn't expect Zhang Qi to be so arrogant.

One against ten!

In Poyang County, Fei Hong and others looked very unhappy. Zhang Qi's words were a contempt for them.

"You are young and reckless, you deserve to be punished."

Zhang Wangshan pretended to scold, but Su Lingchuan just snorted coldly. When it comes to pretending, Senior Brother Zhang is really an expert.

He just didn't believe that Zhang Qi was going to challenge ten people. How could he, the director of the Military Affairs Institute, not know about it?
The other powerful men around were also smart people, but they just smiled and didn't respond.

"Qianshan County has such a talented group of people, and they are actually going to fight ten against one?"

"Haha, our Qianshan County has produced more than one good seedling this year. Zhang Qi came in second in the March competition, and there's even an even stronger Shen Ge who hasn't made a move yet."

On the viewing platform, many practitioners of martial arts who came to watch the fight were from various counties. Since there was a fight in the county, they naturally came to support it.

The martial artist who was speaking was from Qianshan County, and he was familiar with the situation of this batch of martial arts students in Qianshan County.

"I'm afraid the wind will blow my tongue away and hit myself in the face." This was the response from a martial artist who practiced martial arts from Poyang County.

On the field, Zhang Qi quickly selected ten people.

There were only nine people left in Poyang County who had not been selected. Zhang Qi looked at the remaining nine people including Fei Hong and said, "I didn't choose you because I wanted to leave some for Senior Brother Shen. Otherwise, if I defeated them all, Senior Brother Shen would probably find this fight boring."

Zhang Qi’s arrogant words aroused collective anger in Poyang County.

"How arrogant! Beat all ten of us first."

Zhang Qing from the Iron Blood Martial Arts School, who was chosen, snorted and said to the other nine people around him: "Since the other party is so arrogant, we don't need to show mercy!"

Do it!

Zhang Qing and his ten men attacked almost at the same time.

They knew in their hearts that Zhang Qi had already opened sixteen orifices, and his realm was three more than theirs.

But a tiger cannot stand up to a pack of wolves, and I don’t believe Zhang Qi can deal with so many of them at the same time.

"You will know what despair is in a moment!"

There was a ferocious look on Zhang Qi's face, and his aura was rising. He was like a ferocious beast. He jumped up and punched Zhang Qing, who was closest to him.

Roar!
The fist blasted out with the sound of a tiger roaring, and Zhang Qing's iron fist also collided with it with a cannon sound.

Click!

When the two fists collided, Zhang Qing's expression changed instantly, and the next moment his entire figure flew backwards like a kite with a broken string.

one move!
Defeat Zhang Qing!
When Meng Yuan and others saw this scene, their pupils shrank rapidly, and a cruel smile appeared on their faces. The next moment, they rushed over like wild beasts.

One punch, then another!
A tiger enters the mountains and is unstoppable.

"Great Tiger Roar Fist!"

Some of the warriors watching exclaimed.

"With the suppression of the Three Apertures Realm and the Tiger Roar Fist at its peak, Zhang Qi is now invincible."

Thirty breaths!
After only thirty breaths, Zhang Qi was the only one left standing in the martial arts arena.

Although he was bruised, his injuries were not serious.

Su Lingchuan's face turned livid, and the masters of the eight martial arts halls in Poyang County had the same expression. Poyang County had been defeated miserably in this battle.

"Vulnerable."

Zhang Qi curled his lips and looked at Shen Ge: "Brother Shen, I'll leave the rest to you, so that you won't feel bored."

"This one looks so arrogant."

Some students from other counties couldn't stand this, but as soon as he said it, he was refuted by others around him.

"You can only be arrogant if you have strength. Martial arts is based on strength. Poyang County does not have this strength, so it should just admit defeat."

On the viewing platform, Jiang Qing looked at Zhang Qi's arrogant appearance with a cold look in her beautiful eyes. Just as she was deciding whether to break this balance and represent Poyang County, she caught a glimpse of a figure at the entrance of the martial arts arena.

Seeing this figure appear, Jiang Qing smiled.

Junior Brother Lin, you finally arrived.
