Gu Fei didn't ask why Baishi Jinglun was visiting. Because he didn't need to ask to know.
In this era where Kung Fu was on the decline, various clans and factions that were obsessed with practicing Kung Fu had put aside their ancient sectarian bias, and people often interacted with each other. For example, Gu Fei's father's generation often went out with a few friends to have a forum or tea party or something like that.
This was considered a group activity, but of course, there were often some peer-to-peer private interactions. For example, the duel between his father and Gu Fei that Baishi Jinglun mentioned just now was actually his father's visit to the Gu family, and then everyone exchanged moves.
Although this kind of exchange wasn't very formal, and people didn't seem to pay much attention to it, in fact, everyone knew what was going on. On a certain day of a certain year, when they visited a certain family, they defeated someone, and on a certain day of a certain year, when they visited a certain family, they lost to someone. So far, how many times they had exchanged moves with someone, and how many times they had won and lost — this kind of small score was recorded in everyone's mind. Although they didn't say it out loud, they were actually very calculative in their hearts.
During this process, some people even had a whimsical idea that Kung Fu should also learn and develop from advanced sports, such as holding a Kung Fu League, using a home-and-away round-robin system, or a playoff system for the East and West divisions, and then holding a Kung Fu World Cup every four years.
This plan sounded good at first, but in the end, it wasn't implemented. After all, Kung Fu was different from ordinary sports. This was a killing technique! Usually, people would just stop at a certain point and casually exchange moves, but it was inevitable that some injuries would be caused. If a large-scale confrontation was really carried out, the consequences would be unimaginable.
So so far, Kung Fu could only maintain the status quo and spread in such a narrow circle.
Baishi Jinglun's visit to the Gu family was nothing more than a very common private visit, so Gu Fei naturally didn't take it seriously and didn't ask much.
"I was going to look for you, but unfortunately, you weren't there," said Baishi Jinglun.
"Oh, then what happened?" Gu Fei had indeed rarely returned home since he became a teacher.
"Then … uh, I received some guidance from my uncle," said Baishi Jinglun.
"He beat you up." Gu Fei's face was suddenly full of sympathy.
"No, it was guidance," insisted Baishi Jinglun.
"It's coaching, but I know his style of coaching." Gu Fei said.
After a moment of silence, the Hundred Eras Statesman suddenly said, "Damn, I wanted to ask for your guidance."
"Yeah!" Gu Fei nodded and didn't say anything else. In fact, he had a hunch when Bai Jinglun mentioned the spar he had with his father ten years ago. Saying that he was taking revenge for his father was a little too heavy. It was far from being as deep as it was now. The more appropriate way to describe it was to help his father vent his anger.
It turned out that the Hundred Years of Statecraft had such a subtle relationship with him. It seemed that the two of them were bound to fight today. Of course, Gu Fei was more than happy to fight. He was just waiting for the Hundred Lives Classic to speak.
Unexpectedly, Master of the Ages looked at him and suddenly frowned. "Why did you choose a wizard?"
This was really touching a sore spot. Gu Fei's face was dejected as he waved his hand and said, "Don't mention it, it's a long story."
"If that's the case, I think I'll go to your house when I have time!" Hundred Eras Jinglun said.
"Don't!" Gu Fei panicked. "Right here! How ready-made! Fight now, beat him to death, don't hold back! "
Hundred Lives Classic was still hesitating. He really felt that his profession as a Grandmaster of Combat had too much of an advantage against a wizard in the game. It was somewhat unfair.
Gu Fei didn't care at all. He also guessed Hundred Lives Classic's thoughts, so he smiled and said, "It's just for fun, don't mind it so much."
"Then … I won't use my skills," Hundred Lives Classic said. A Grandmaster of Combat's skills were all in between punches and kicks. For experts like them, it was a piece of cake to integrate their skills into their own Kung Fu. For example, the Emergence of the Cloud Dragon that Centurion Grandmaster used to flip the Waist Dance could have easily incorporated the Grandmaster of Combat's wrestling technique, Hugging Throw. Centurion Grandmaster was just being merciful.
At this time, seeing that Gu Fei was a wizard, he was already at a disadvantage in terms of profession, so he decided not to use his game skills.
"Oh, then I won't use my spells either." Gu Fei nodded.
Every skill of a Grandmaster of Combat could be used in Kung Fu. How could a wizard's spells be like that? When Hundred Lives Classic heard Gu Fei comparing him to a wizard, he didn't think much of it.
"Empty-Handed, right?" At this time, Gu Fei asked as he put his sword back into his pocket.
"What empty-handed? A Grandmaster of Combat's weapon is a glove, "Slender Waist Dance shouted.
"That's right, but I'm indeed empty-handed." Hundred Lives Classic spread his hands to show everyone. Indeed, he wasn't wearing a boxing glove or similar equipment in the game like other fighters.
"You can use weapons." Hundred Lives Classic felt that he already had a huge advantage in his profession. If he didn't give Gu Fei some benefits, it would be a little boring to fight.
"No need, let's spar with weapons later!" Gu Fei replied.
This way, Hundred Lives Classic really couldn't say anything else. The brothers behind him had already tactfully retreated a distance, making space for the two of them. On Gu Fei's side, there were only Slender Waist Dance, Vast Mang, and Unsworn Sword. Most of them had worried expressions on their faces. They were just normal players. From a player's perspective, they thought that Gu Fei's strongest point was his spell damage that could kill instantly. However, at this time, he actually gave up on this strong attack power to fight with a Grandmaster of Combat's fists and kicks … They couldn't be blamed for not having confidence in Gu Fei. It was just that outsiders didn't understand, so they were bound to be anxious.
On the other hand, on the Hundred Battles Mercenary Group's side, everyone's face revealed unparalleled confidence. They already admired Hundred Lives Classic's Kung Fu. Although the opponent had some skills, they felt that their side's Hundred Lives Classic would definitely win since he was a wizard.
Other than that, there was also a third party. Ke didn't seem to care much about the two who were about to fight. Instead, she looked at Water Depth and said, "Why do I feel that you're the most excited that they're about to fight?"
"I just sincerely hope that he'll be beaten to a pulp by this Hundred Lives Classic." Water Depth said.
No one announced the start of the fight. The two suddenly took a few steps forward and instantly met in the middle.
Gu Fei made the first move. He lifted his leg and kicked at Hundred Lives Classic's chest. Hundred Lives Classic didn't dodge either. Instead, he formed a claw with his hand and grabbed Gu Fei's ankle. However, Gu Fei's right leg that had just kicked out had already been quickly retracted. It was his left leg that bounced up. Hundred Lives Classic hurriedly changed hands, but his claw missed again. Gu Fei's leg had already been retracted before Hundred Lives Classic's hand reached out again. Once again, Hundred Lives Classic swept out with his right leg.
In the blink of an eye, Gu Fei kicked seven times in a row. The Encyclopedic Strategist also changed his hand shape seven times, but before he could touch Gu Fei's ankle, he had already retracted his leg and struck out again. He attacked seven different positions seven times. Everyone was stunned by what they saw.
For outsiders, they could only see the shadows of Gu Fei's legs in that short moment. They didn't even know if his feet touched the ground. It looked like he had consecutively kicked seven times in the air.
"How is that possible? How can he attack so quickly with his agility?" Thin Waist Dance was astonished.
Unsworn Sword and Boundless Mang naturally didn't understand either. Even the people from the Hundred Battles Mercenary Group could only understand a small portion of the higher level.
It wasn't the speed that was fast, but the rhythm. Ordinary people didn't know the meaning behind it. Just by looking at the visual effect, they naturally thought that it was because of the speed.
Although Hundred Lives Classic had blocked all seven of Gu Fei's kicks, it was becoming more and more difficult for him to attack with each kick. By the time the seventh kick landed, Hundred Lives Classic's hand had already barely made it. If there was another kick, he definitely wouldn't be able to receive it. Hundred Lives Classic's reaction was also extremely fast. He immediately gave up on fighting head-on and quickly took a step back.
In the end, the eighth kick didn't land.
It turned out to be a false alarm. Hundred Lives Classic let out a long breath.
This round of confrontation was a test for both sides. They were testing the depth of each other's strength, and more importantly, they were evaluating each other's true strength.
At the end of the day, sparring in the game was just sparring. The limitations of the data in the game made it impossible for people like them to perfectly unleash their strength. Moreover, the two of them had different professions, so there would be a gap in the points they added. Therefore, the sparring in the game was just like Gu Fei said, just for fun. However, it was still feasible to estimate the other party's true strength based on their moves in the game.
Hundred Lives Classic could become one of the top five in this game, which showed that he had put in a lot of effort and had a deep understanding of the game. From Gu Fei's moves, he could tell that Gu Fei had added all his points into Agility. As such, Gu Fei's attack speed was above his. Hundred Lives Classic mainly added points into Agility, supplemented by some Strength.
Although the difference in attack speed due to the addition of Agility points in the game was not too obvious, with their continuous attacks, the small difference would accumulate and eventually show itself.
Hundred Lives Classic believed that the difference was the fact that he couldn't stop Gu Fei's eighth move in time after seven moves.
If it was a real fight, I definitely wouldn't be in such a difficult situation, Hundred Lives Classic thought. But even so, I managed to deal with it. It turns out that he can only use seven kicks in a row, and there's no eighth kick.
Thinking of this, Hundred Lives Classic smiled. "Brother Gu, you're indeed a genius. I didn't expect the Nine Turn Chain to be able to use seven kicks in a row without moving. Amazing!"
Gu Fei looked ashamed. "I'm sorry, my rhythm was messed up just now. I couldn't continue with the seventh kick."
"What did you say?" Hundred Lives Classic was stunned.
Gu Fei smiled and patted his pocket. "I forgot to put my sword away. Now that I'm 20 points less in Agility, I have to calculate everything before I use this move, or I'll mess up my rhythm."
