The onlookers couldn't help but sigh, the collective sound forming a unified expression of disappointment. There was nothing to be done; the situation was obvious. had "s hand on "s neck, a critical point where Chen Chuan, with a strong move, could instantly snap Ren Qiao's cervical vertebrae. This was a clear defeat. They were frustrated, wishing things could be better. The first two rounds at least involved genuine exchanges. What was that just now? There wasn't even any contact between them, right? "s fundamentals are so solid, and they usually praise as a steady person. How could make such a basic mistake? And that Chen student seemed to use Seizing Technique at the end? It would be understandable if knew grappling or swordsmanship, as both unarmed and weapon skills require practice. But how does also know how to capture? They were perplexed. Chen Chuan refused the information about the others that Cheng Shang offered, and naturally "s information wasn't disclosed to them either. Both sides' understanding of each other was shrouded in mystery. However, Zhou Yuan Strength Method, as an Internal energy, wasn't widely known. Only those who had truly practiced it knew how to utilize it. Outsiders were separated by a layer, and explaining it wouldn't necessarily make them understand. Chen Chuan watched Ren Qiao's dejected figure leaving the stage. What used just now was actually a method Teacher Zheng had demonstrated to not long ago, using Guide to deflect the opponent's own movements. If Ren Qiao hadn't had so little combat experience and such a strong apprehension towards , carrying such a heavy mental burden, the effect wouldn't have been what it was. Actually, if this one had fought more relaxed, might not have been taken down in one move. The short-haired woman was helpless. The Boundary Token flashed, transferring two hundred yuan to Ni Qianxi's account, and threw the received silver coins back, saying helplessly, "I'll have to be thrifty again this month." Ni Qianxi rolled "s eyes. "Come on, Sister Bai, wouldn't you have it all back by teaching one more student?" Sister Bai shook "s head. "I don't teach just any student." Since Ren Qiao had lost another match, most people realized Chen Chuan's unusual abilities. To deal with such an opponent, they needed a strategy, not just a surge of enthusiasm and a hasty decision. If it were an unexpected encounter, there would be no choice, but now that they had time to think, they would certainly make use of it, so no one rushed to come up for the time being. At this moment, outside the Martial Combat gym, many people were entering one after another. Because it was only an internal exchange with no fixed time, and to save everyone's Face, outsiders weren't invited. Today, all those who came were acquaintances from the inherited lineages. The bonds between these people weren't based on blood relations but on the method of inheritance. Therefore, even if they were father and son, if their philosophies clashed or they were deemed insufficiently talented, they would be directly abandoned, and the opportunity would be given to others, to those disciple who better fit the philosophy and had more talent. A car stopped in the square outside. The brother and sister Chen Chuan had encountered at Sea Realm Field last time got out of the car. The man looked at "s watch and then inside. "Xiao Qing, it seems we're a bit late. The Exchange competition inside has already started. Let's go in." "Okay!" The man led the girl inside and saw Ren Qiao sitting dejectedly on the side, surrounded by several acquaintances who were saying something, while two people sat next to them, just catching their breath, obviously having lost their matches. looked at "s watch again. No, was sure remembered the time correctly. was only a few minutes late; how could they have already fought several matches? "Brother, that..." Xiao Qing tugged at the man, pointing at Chen Chuan standing in the arena. "That young man is the one we met at Sea Realm Field that day." The man nodded. had recognized when came in just now, sighing, "Central City is so big; to run into twice in a row, it really is fate." But... looked at Chen Chuan, wearing a Wuyi school uniform. The winner is this one; is this young man so strong? Watching defeat several people in a row? Ni Qianxi said, "Little Brother Chen, it seems you don't need a rest yet?" Chen Chuan thought, would it be even more excessive if said was tired and wanted to rest? So nodded and said, "I should still be able to continue." However, even though put it relatively mildly, the surrounding young people still felt as if they were being looked down upon, watching with both helplessness and resentment. Ni Qianxi looked to the side. "Who's next?" Liu Yin thought for a moment, then stepped out, saying, "I'll go." As walked out, the noise in the arena couldn't help but lessen. Xiao Qing's eyes lit up. "It's Brother Liu Yin." The man said, "Oh? Liu Yin's going up so quickly? It seems this young man is putting a lot of pressure on them." Liu Yin was undoubtedly the most outstanding of this generation. wasn't as good as this at this age. Even now, it's hard to say who would win if they really fought. "Brother Liu Yin will definitely win, right?" Xiao Qing looked at Liu Yin admiringly, asking. The man pondered, saying, "There's no guaranteed victory in a duel. Fundamentals, mentality, and on-the-spot performance are all indispensable. The one who wins today might not win tomorrow." looked ahead. "The gap between Martial Artist like them is actually very small, so it's hard to say who will win or lose. Sometimes it might even depend on a bit of luck." "Luck?" "Yes, like positioning." The man smiled. "There's a superstitious saying that the person standing on the west side, which is our left, is more likely to lose." "But Brother Liu Yin is standing on the west side now." "So it's just a superstitious saying, then. Hehe." After Liu Yin stood in front of Chen Chuan, said, "Chen student, I'm actually taking advantage of you by going up now. I hope you don't mind." No matter how short a time Chen Chuan used to end the battle, had seen it now and understood "s opponent. This was a clear advantage for . Strictly speaking, it was indeed unfair. And preferred a fair fight, otherwise there was no point in winning. So said, "In unarmed Martial Combat, what I'm good at is Sanshou. And my sense of danger is always very sharp, and I can always find some weaknesses in my enemies. I hope you're careful." The short-haired woman said, "Besides having good fundamentals, Liu Yin can always find suitable opportunities in time, which others can't compare to." Ni Qianxi joked, "Sister Bai, don't say any more, be careful you jinx Liu Yin." The short-haired woman gave a displeased look but then closed "s mouth.

Just then, Ni Qianxi suddenly frowned and walked to the side, seemingly having received some news. Chen Chuan noticed that after this one stood up, everyone else fell silent. should be the most outstanding among these inherited disciple. carefully looked at Liu Yin. This one had a good will and mentality, and "s movements were very coordinated. There were almost no obvious flaws or shortcomings. It wasn't like dealing with the previous people who could be taken down in one move. After the two greeted each other with clasped fists, they both stepped back a bit. Liu Yin stood still, not because was timid or apprehensive, but to make it clear that didn't want to take advantage of Chen Chuan. Since was being modest, Chen Chuan didn't stand on ceremony. first slowly approached, and when reached a certain distance, immediately increased "s Speed, punching towards "s face. Liu Yin didn't choose to take the blow head-on but moved "s feet, slightly leaning "s upper body back, dodging to the side. "s movements were fast, and "s center of gravity was adjusted very reasonably. Although didn't really come up, "s hands were already positioned in the most suitable place for Counterattack. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and someone shouted "Good!" because Liu Yin wasn't knocked down with a single blow. They were starting to feel psychological pressure. Chen Chuan glanced at . This one's movements were natural and cautious. If wanted to express "s low state and win, had to find flaws and opportunities in motion. It seemed had to maneuver first this time. Just as was thinking this, Ni Qianxi's message came through the Boundary Token, "Little Brother Chen, there's something going on at the bureau. If you can resolve it, resolve it as soon as possible." Chen Chuan raised an eyebrow upon hearing this. In that case, had no choice but to change "s original strategy. So instantly released the restraints on Mutated Tissue. The figure that was originally stepping forward suddenly sped up. The sudden change in Rhythm was something ordinary people couldn't adapt to. They might panic at first encounter, but Liu Yin wasn't like that. was very calm. didn't choose to dodge but raised "s arms and arched "s body forward, actively closing in. Sister Bai next to watched and couldn't help but praise. This was a very correct choice, because dodging was useless. Could you be faster than the person rushing over? In this situation, it's easy to be knocked down. Instead, taking the initiative to go forward can suppress Chen Chuan's Speed by colliding with . Chen Chuan's sudden acceleration wouldn't come without a price; surely most of the Mutated Tissue was involved, so there was no need to fear grappling or capture. It's useless to be wary of the opponent and keep at a distance. You should close in when you need to, and sometimes striking from close range is more effective. As expected, Chen Chuan didn't change "s move. In an instant, their arms and shoulders collided together. Because both sides were pushing forward with all their might, there was a loud crash, and the sound made everyone's Chest feel stuffy. In Liu Yin's judgment, this collision would cause a moment of stagnation due to the forces both sides received. And the Internal energy practiced was the Binding Strength Technique, which was faster than ordinary people in adjusting and coordinating, so could recover first and use this slight advantage to seize the situation. But didn't expect that after being knocked back two steps by that Strength, Chen Chuan would stand still and not move, then reach out as if hadn't been Influenced at all, grabbing "s wrist with a snap. "s eyes narrowed, knowing that the other party had the ability to grapple. If Internal energy seeped in, then it would be over below. With no other option, could only Guide Internal energy and close in again along with the other party's next possible drag. However, Chen Chuan didn't use the expected technique but also mustered Strength and moved forward. So the two collided a second time, and another dull sound echoed in the arena. Chen Chuan stood there like a rock, still unmoved, while Liu Yin felt a burst of irritation in "s Chest, and "s hands and feet felt a little shaky. "s footsteps were a little weak for a while below. Before could recover, Chen Chuan's figure suddenly magnified in front of , and "s shoulder slammed into "s chest. This time, "s entire body flew out, falling on the floor and sliding back a distance, rushing into the crowd until was caught in gasps of shock. Chen Chuan slowly straightened "s body, stood in the arena, looked ahead, clasped a fist towards the direction where Liu Yin fell, and said, "Thank you for the concession." The arena was silent. After a few breathing, Ni Qianxi came out and clapped "s hands, saying, "Alright, let's end it here for today. Little Brother Chen has something to do and needs to leave. Let's find another opportunity next time." gestured to Chen Chuan, then walked out first. Everyone in the arena was silent. Liu Yin was recognized as the strongest among them, but even Liu Yin had been defeated. It seemed there was no need to compete any further today. Chen Chuan adjusted "s clothes, nodded to everyone, and came to the door. picked up the Snow Emperor Blade and was about to walk out when a voice came from behind, asking, "Young man, who taught you Martial Arts?" Chen Chuan stopped, turned "s head, and saw that the person who asked the question was the man had met once before. looked back at everyone inside and slowly said, "It was Cheng Zitong from Yangzhi Martial Academy, Teacher Cheng." After saying that, turned around and strode towards the door. After a while, the sound of a sports car speeding away came from outside.
