The Great Martial Arts World: Hot Topics and Great Heroes

Tian Boguang, as one of the most notorious lechers in the martial arts world, may be slightly inferior to Yun Zhonghe in terms of lightness skill, but his hand skills are superior to Yun Zhonghe's and no less than those of regional sect leaders like Yu Canghai.

Compared to the Wuliang Sword Sect, a small sect whose reputation could not be spread far and wide, it was far superior.

Upon seeing Chu Luren draw his sword, Tian Boguang immediately recognized that Chu Luren's swordsmanship was mediocre and that there was no sword energy surging. Clearly, his internal strength was also average. He thought to himself that he was just a name without substance!

Of course, Tian Boguang didn't intend to take the hit head-on, since he wasn't practicing any kind of external martial arts.

Instead, he pushed aside the two men who were embracing him from the left and right, drew a single-edged sword from the table, and with a flash of light, knocked Chu Luren's longsword away. Then, with another flash, he prepared to take advantage of Chu Luren's opening and disembowel him!

However, Chu Luren thought to himself: Well done!

Tian Boguang's blade was indeed fast, but Chu Luren also unleashed his "swordsmanship" at this moment. Around Chu Luren, it was as if a peacock was spreading its tail feathers, and sword light flashed everywhere...

It was no longer a sword technique, but rather Chu Luren's every move was imbued with the meaning of "a peacock spreading its tail".

Because the core of the peacock's display is "parrying," Chu Luren's swordsmanship is rather lackluster in terms of attack.

However, after actually fighting Tian Boguang...

Tian Boguang originally thought that his opponent would be easy to defeat, but he actually managed to block his Gale Blade Technique!

In a daze, Tian Boguang seemed to see peacock feathers appearing around Chu Luren as he wielded his sword. No matter how fierce his Gale Blade Technique was, it was neutralized by the trembling of the peacock feathers!

After twenty moves, Tian Boguang had become completely serious. Inside the room, sword and saber flashed, and Tian Boguang's sabers were faster and faster. However, after another thirty moves, Chu Luren's swordsmanship remained perfectly composed, and he parried all of them flawlessly.

This is one of the reasons why Chu Luren wanted to fight Tian Boguang—to test the effect of the "Peacock Spreading its Tail" technique...

The peacock's display of its tail feathers is its best defense, especially against fast-paced attacks.

The Blood Saber Ancestor's Blood Saber Manual is not only about speed, but more importantly, about "deception." However, when surrounded, he can only use his fast blade to try to break through.

Tian Boguang's Gale Blade Technique is all about speed; at least in Tian Boguang's hands, it can only be described as "fast"...

Therefore, using him to test the peacock's display of its tail feathers can be described as meeting a worthy opponent and a talented general!

The whirlwind sword technique's energy boosted Tian Boguang's sword speed to a whole new level...

In addition to the "power" of the "peacock spreading its tail", the Chu Lu people also specially equipped themselves with the "Earth Deficiency Movement Technique" in their "techniques".

Although its main function is rather useless to the Chu Lu people, since they don't lack any meridians or limbs and don't need to take detours to cultivate, at least they can use "finger strength" as "sword" to impersonate sword energy.

In this way, Chu Luren's sword also faintly flickered with "sword light". Although the efficiency of using the pulsating finger force in this way is not high, it can at least ensure that when the swords clash, Chu Luren does not have to fully bear the shock of the opponent's sword energy!

However, once the fight enters its final, intense phase, the tables, chairs, vases, and food in the room are bound to be destroyed, clattering and crashing.

The women, who were originally very brave and skilled, clearly had no martial arts skills. At this moment, they screamed and tried to hide in a corner.

Upon discovering this, Tian Boguang slightly sheathed his sword and said disdainfully, "We can't fight here, let's go outside!"

"That suits me perfectly!" Chu Luren didn't want to harm the innocent.

Although he had just cooperated with the "guest" to make lewd jokes to mock Chu Luren, if that was all, he was still considered "innocent."

The two men burst out of the window, and instead of jumping out obediently, they fought their way from inside the house to outside!

After Chu Luren stepped into the crowd, the group of martial arts warriors began to observe the battle situation...

Although you can't see anything, you can hear the chaotic sounds of weapons clashing inside, and in the blink of an eye, there are sixty or seventy moves.

Even if it's unclear who has the upper hand between the newly ranked Chu Luren and the infamous Tian Boguang, it's clear that neither of them can defeat the other!

At this moment, they saw someone break out of the window. Everyone wanted to see who would be the first to give in and jump out, but when they looked, they found that two people came out together and were fighting each other.

"This young man is amazing! No wonder he's ranked on the Earth Ranking; it seems his achievements on the list are genuine!"

"Not only is he not big, but Tian Boguang is stronger than Yun Zhonghe and Yue Laosan, isn't he?"

"The list clearly says he's even better at finger techniques..."

"That's normal. Dali is located in the southwest, after all, it's not within the territory of the Song Dynasty. Perhaps the news about the number one manor in the world is wrong?"

……

In the blink of an eye, Chu Luren and Tian Boguang had exchanged over a hundred blows in the courtyard of Qunyu Academy. Chu Luren's internal strength was not particularly high, but Tian Boguang was not known for his internal strength either. He only drew his sword light without releasing it, focusing on the word "speed"!

However, Chu Luren's body was surrounded by flashing sword light, like a peacock spreading its tail, and he parried the fast knife with speed.

Furthermore, his movements were as fluid as a fish, which he displayed even more skillfully outdoors, leaving Tian Boguang extremely frustrated. He even felt that the internal energy he used to draw his sword was being consumed more quickly...

Who is better at martial arts, Tian Boguang or Yue Laosan?

It's actually hard to judge, since one is known for its fast swordsmanship and light footwork, while the other is known for its hard skills and the unconventional weapon, the alligator scissors, which allows for wide-ranging and powerful attacks. If they were to face off, one would have to consider the interplay between their martial arts techniques and their ability to perform on the spot.

There's no real difference between the two; only they themselves can determine who wins and who loses by fighting each other.

However, judging from other martial arts practitioners of similar skill, those who would find Tian Boguang even more troublesome would probably account for 70%...

Three months ago, Chu Luren faced Yue Laosan. He needed to achieve enlightenment and fought continuously. He used Kunyou Void to temporarily replenish his internal energy before finally "forcing Yue Laosan to retreat" with a final kick. In reality, if Yue Laosan hadn't retreated or honored the bet, Chu Luren should have been the one to run away.

However, three months later, Chu Luren was able to face Tian Boguang without defeat. Although there was a difference in their techniques, his progress was still remarkable!

The most surprised were Wang Xiaofeng and Shui Sheng, who had just arrived after hearing about the excitement at Qunyu Courtyard and witnessed the same scene in the crowd...

"Cousin, is he using... the Peacock Sword Technique?"

Wang Xiaofeng stared at Chu Luren with a somewhat unpleasant expression, but did not say anything.

They could also "see" the strange phenomenon of the peacock spreading its tail feathers and understood what it meant—the sword intent had been formed!

Only when a fully formed "momentum" is formed can one "see" a phantom when one focuses their attention. In the martial arts world, sword momentum is more broadly referred to as "sword intent".

At that moment, Yu Canghai could no longer contain himself and leaped down from the tall gate, shouting, "Tian Boguang! Did you kill my disciple Peng Renqi?"

Chapter Thirty-Nine: Really

"Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful! I never expected that Abbot Yu of the Qingcheng Sect would actually patronize this group of jade maidens! You all should serve them well today, and the reputation of this group of jade maidens will rise to a new level! It's just that Abbot Yu's figure is not easy to serve well... But it doesn't matter, as long as the middle is aligned, who cares if the ends are aligned!"

When Tian Boguang saw Yu Canghai, he didn't panic at all. Instead, he started making crude jokes about Yu's height.

Yu Canghai's face turned purple with rage, but Tian Boguang seemed oblivious and continued to provoke him: "Whether Peng Renqi rode or not, I don't know, but there was indeed a junior using Qingcheng Sect swordsmanship who just disturbed my fun, and I've already sent him to his death..."

"How dare you! Then prepare to die!" Yu Canghai dashed forward.

Although he was short in both body and sword, Yu Canghai had mastered the essence of the Pine Breeze Sword Technique, making it not only "swift as the wind" but also "strong as a pine tree".

The two fought swiftly and fiercely, exchanging blows, with Yu Canghai clearly having the upper hand, yet he was unable to subdue Tian Boguang for the time being...

Just then, a commotion arose from the crowd. It was Liu Zhengfeng, the host of the place, who arrived with his two disciples, Xiang Danian and Mi Weiyi.

At this moment, Tian Boguang also wielded a flying sand and stone knife, dazzling Yu Canghai for a moment. Then he jumped away and said, "The Qingcheng Sect has also joined the Five Mountains Sword Sect, and you still want to bully the weak with numbers? Grandpa Tian is not playing with you anymore!"

Tian Boguang had barely opened his mouth when he leaped away, and by the time he finished speaking, his voice was already far away...

In Chu Luren's opinion, Tian Boguang's lightness skill was not as good as Yun Zhonghe's. However, Yun Zhonghe's "traveling alone for thousands of miles" was not for nothing. It is clear that "lightness skill" was a lecherous thief's secret skill!

Chu Luren figured he couldn't catch up, and seeing that Yu Canghai didn't seem to be chasing either, he guessed he couldn't catch up either—it seemed that being too small might really affect his speed.

Perhaps sensing Chu Luren's gaze, Yu Canghai immediately glared back, but Yu Canghai ignored Chu Luren, and Chu Luren naturally didn't take the initiative to acknowledge Yu Canghai either.

After all, although this guy is good at swordsmanship, his character and temperament are completely opposite to his name. He is not worth befriending, nor is he worthy of Chu Luren's face.

The story of "The Smiling, Proud Wanderer" begins with Yu Canghai coveting the Lin family's "Evil-Repelling Sword Technique," which leads to the massacre of the entire Fuwei Escort Agency. Then, the "Evil-Repelling Sword Technique" is revealed, causing a series of subsequent upheavals.

"Thank you for your righteous help, Young Hero Chu. Did you see any Hengshan disciples before?" Ding Yi asked from the rooftop while glancing down at the room where Tian Boguang had been.

"Master Dingyi, you're too kind. I didn't see anyone dressed as a member of the Hengshan Sect just now." Chu Luren was telling the truth.

"Don't panic, Master Dingyi. I, Liu, will lead my men to search them one by one!" Liu Zhengfeng had also arrived at this time, and Chu Luren also saw Mi Weiyi behind him.

Furthermore, many of Liu's servants also came to "crash the business."

Regardless of whether Qunyu Courtyard had any powerful backers, the madam clearly didn't dare to challenge them at this moment, watching helplessly as the disciples of Liu's Mansion and Qingcheng Sect rushed in.

The Hengshan Sect disciples, probably seeing that the Jade Courtyard's business had been disrupted and the atmosphere of revelry had faded, felt more at ease entering.

Chu Luren also joined in the fun, and flew directly into the previous room. However, the skilled women had disappeared somewhere, but Chu Luren didn't care. He looked around the rooms on either side and then walked to the room at the very end.

Before opening the door, Chu Luren had vaguely heard strange noises inside. However, when he pushed the door open, he saw a rather burly young man wearing a cloak sitting imposingly in front of the door, seemingly waiting for him to come in.

only……

His face was deathly pale, showing no sign of having just done any enjoyable exercise.

"Huh? This fellow seems... to be seriously injured? Is his addiction that strong?" Chu Luren exclaimed in amazement.

"Hahaha, one cannot go a day without wine, but even with wine, there is no shortage of fine weather and beautiful scenery. Brother, you are quite ignorant." The young man's voice was very hoarse when he spoke, clearly indicating that he was injured both internally and externally, yet he pretended to be unrestrained.

Just then, a Qingcheng Sect disciple outside the door seemed to have overheard something. He glanced at Chu Luren from behind and exclaimed, "Ling... Linghu Chong? So you're not dead?"

"So he's a top disciple of the Huashan Sect." Chu Luren was now completely certain, and at the same time, he looked at the bed.

The top was twisting and turning, and the people inside seemed very nervous.

At the same time, the reaction here also attracted the attention of others. Yu Canghai stepped forward from the crowd. Chu Luren only felt someone tug at his knee.

Yu Canghai entered and stared intently at Linghu Chong, saying, "Heh, I didn't expect that the Huashan Sect, with its strict discipline, would produce a senior disciple who spends the night in a brothel? I wonder if it's because Headmaster Yue taught him well?"

Luo Renjie, one of Yu Canghai's prized disciples, was killed by Linghu Chong. However, due to Yilin's testimony, it could be said that Luo Renjie had only himself to blame. Therefore, Yu Canghai could not openly use this matter to cause trouble for Linghu Chong, lest he offend both the Huashan Sect and the Hengshan Sect at the same time.

However, his words were quite sarcastic, as if he wanted Linghu Chong to take the initiative, otherwise... given his seniority, it would not look good for him to attack a junior first.

At the same time, Yu Canghai caught a glimpse of the bed out of the corner of his eye and vaguely guessed what was going on.

"I heard that you rescued Yilin, a junior disciple of the Hengshan Sect, from Tian Boguang's clutches? Renxiong..." Yu Canghai said, beckoning Hong Renxiong, who had come in earlier, to search the bed.

He thought to himself that if he found Yilin now, Huashan and Hengshan would lose face. It would not only dampen the spirits of the Five Mountains Sword Sects, but also make it impossible for Yu Canghai to be blamed.

However, at that moment, Chu Luren suddenly exclaimed, "Master Yu, are you saying... that the person in bed is Tian Boguang?"

Yu Canghai and Linghu Chong: ? ? ?

Before Hong Renxiong could react, Chu Luren took two steps forward. Yu Canghai instinctively tried to stop him, but in the blink of an eye, Chu Luren was already at the bedside. Linghu Chong had even less time to react. At this moment, Chu Luren, with his back to everyone, suddenly pulled back the covers...

Inside were a terrified face with its mouth covered, and... a slightly worried yet sly face filled with anticipation and excitement. The former was a beautiful nun, and the latter was a little girl who looked to be only thirteen or fourteen years old.

Chu Luren naturally guessed that the two people must be Yilin and Qu Feiyan. At this moment, Qu Feiyan was covering Yilin's mouth, otherwise Yilin would have already exclaimed.

Then Chu Luren reached out his hand...

Just as Yilin was about to faint from nervousness, everything went black—it was Chu Luren who covered her with the blanket again.

“It’s real, it’s not Tian Boguang in disguise.” Chu Luren said, looking at Yu Canghai with suspicion.

Yu Canghai: ? ? ?

To others, it seemed as if Chu Luren had just gone over, lifted the covers, looked at them, and even... touched them?
