"Alright, as long as you don't go back on your words." Zhang Xuan smiled and agreed.
"Miss Zhang..."
Hearing him make such a decision, Zhao Ya and the others were all anxious.
You must be joking!
Even though their cultivation had improved significantly in the past few days, it was impossible for them to fight against a teacher!
If they agreed to it, wouldn't that be equivalent to admitting defeat?
"Since you are so confident, fine. Will they come at me together, or will they take turns?"
Zhou Tian looked at Zhang Xuan with a smile.
Zhang Xuan only had five students. Even if they suppressed their cultivation, they wouldn't be a match for him.
"Take turns? You are thinking too much. With your strength, any one of my students would be able to defeat you! "Zhang Xuan shook his head.
"You..."
Seeing the other party looking down on him, Zhou Tian's complexion turned awful.
Ignoring him, Zhang Xuan turned to Zhao Ya and the others.
Under his gaze, they immediately tensed up.
They couldn't even defeat him on the Student Dueling Platform, to challenge a teacher...
"The few of you didn't fight previously. Challenging Zhou laoshi is really... a waste of talent. Zheng Yang, you shall be the one!" Zhang Xuan scanned the surroundings and pointed casually.
Upon hearing those words, everyone's vision darkened.
Brother, is it a good idea to put on such an act?
Even if you want to put on an act, you should at least be realistic, right?
Putting aside the fact that this Zheng Yang is weak, he has just fought a huge battle and his stamina is almost completely sapped. Can't you see that he can't even lift his spear? If you ask him to kill a chicken now, he probably wouldn't even be able to do so. Yet, you want him to fight Zhou Tian?
Furthermore... a waste of talent?
What the heck is a waste of talent!
Looking at this fellow's state, even if Zhou Tian doesn't make a move, he probably won't be able to hold on for long.
Not only did everyone have a bizarre expression on their faces, even Zheng Yang's mouth twitched.
"Teacher, I..."
He was on the verge of going insane.
Was Miss Zhang joking?
He was well aware of his own capabilities. Given how he was unable to withstand any random student, let alone Zhou Tian laoshi... Putting aside the fact that he had suppressed his cultivation to Fighter 1-dan, even if he were to suppress his cultivation to Fighter 1-dan... he still wouldn't be able to defeat the other party!
Just as he was about to tell Miss Zhang about his physical condition, before he could finish his words, the other party's calm voice sounded, "Don't be too happy. It won't be too late to celebrate after you defeat this Zhou laoshi!"
Happy?
What was there to be happy about?
I'm about to cry, can't you tell?
Zheng Yang's body swayed, and he felt like he would faint at any moment.
"You're courting death!"
Seeing this scene, Zhou Tian thought that Zhang Xuan was purposely making things difficult for him. His mouth twitched in anger and his eyes shone with ferocity.
"Before the battle, I'll teach him a new spear technique. Teacher Zhou should be fine with it, right?"
Zhang Xuan looked at Zhou Tian, ignoring the strange expressions on the faces of the people around him.
"Buying a ring right before you get married? I'm afraid it's a little too late!" Zhou Tian scoffed.
"It doesn't matter whether it's too late or not, as long as I can defeat you!" Zhang Xuan smiled faintly. He walked up to Zheng Yang and said, "Come, teacher will teach you a spear technique. Watch carefully and learn well!"
After which, he took the spear from the other party's hands and with a flick of his wrist, he thrust it out in a crooked manner.
This move didn't seem to have any logic to it, and it seemed extremely casual. It didn't seem like a technique at all, but a casual thrust, as though he was playing around.
"This fellow … He can't be joking, right?"
"You call this a spear technique? Isn't it better to bring a boar over and let it see a female pig in heat? "
"I've seen scammers before, but this is the first time I've seen one scammer his student. Zheng Yang is probably done for!"
"To have such a teacher, no matter how formidable he is, he will still be finished …"
Zhang Xuan didn't hide anything as he imparted the technique to the crowd. Everyone saw how he executed the move and they found it hard to wrap their heads around it.
You call this a spear technique?
Even if it was used as a fire stick to stir the flames, it would still be several times more exquisite than this move …
"Have you learned it?"
Ignoring the discussions of the crowd, Zhang Xuan turned to look at Zheng Yang.
"I've learned it …"
Zheng Yang cried.
Was there a need to learn this move?
The first time he held a spear was when he was six years old … Back then, his moves were much more formidable than this …
"Alright, since you've learned it, you should defeat Zhou laoshi!"
Zhang Xuan nodded his head and patted Zheng Yang's body.
Hearing his instructions, Zheng Yang was just about to cry when he felt a surge of zhenqi gushing into his meridians from Miss Zhang's palm that came into contact with his shoulder.
This surge of zhenqi was incomparably dense and pure. Wherever it went, the blocked meridians in one's body would open up. It was as though some kind of shackles had been broken in one's body and he had consumed a nourishing pill. In an instant, all of his fatigue disappeared and he regained his vigor.
Fatigue was similar to illness, it was also caused by blockages in one's meridians. However, under Zhang Xuan's pure zhenqi, these blockages were nothing.
"Don't resist it. Follow the direction of my zhenqi circulation and adjust your breathing!"
Just as he was perplexed, Miss Zhang's voice sounded in his ears.
Knowing that it was impossible for his teacher to harm him, Zheng Yang hurriedly focused his mind and adjusted his breathing.
Kacha! Kacha! Kacha!
The surge of zhenqi that entered his body immediately circulated in a unique manner along his meridians. In an instant, Zheng Yang felt as though he had become a spear that could pierce through the heavens at any moment.
"This is … the internal breathing circulation method for spear arts?"
At this moment, no matter how foolish Zheng Yang was, he understood what was going on.
Regardless of whether it was spear arts or battle techniques, not only were there moves involved, the most important factor was the internal breathing circulation method.
Only when one's internal breathing was correct would one be able to drive a spear art and bring out its full might. Otherwise, the so-called moves would only be fanciful and lacking in might.
Even though Zheng Yang had never come into contact with any formidable spear arts, he had been accompanying the spear since he was young and the spear art was already ingrained into his bones. The moment this internal breathing circulation method formed in his body, he immediately understood that it was far more profound than any spear art he had ever learned or seen before!
The previous move might seem ordinary, such that even a fool would be able to learn it. However, when paired with this cultivation method, it became simple!
"To think that there would be such a formidable move in the world …"
In an instant, a dumbfounded expression appeared on his face. He dared not believe what he had just heard.
This move could no longer be described as profound. It was simply unimaginable.
In the midst of his agitation, Miss Zhang's voice sounded in his ears once more.
"Don't hesitate. Quickly familiarize yourself with the internal breathing circulation method and match it well with your spear art!"
"Yes!"
Knowing that Miss Zhang was imparting him a profound spear art, Zheng Yang stopped his thoughts from running wild. Instead, he focused his mind and tried to comprehend the internal breathing circulation in his body.
Every single battle technique had a unique internal breathing circulation method. Like paving a path, the practitioner had to slowly clear the blocked meridians. It was an incomparably troublesome process and required a large amount of effort.
Taking the current Zheng Yang as an example, his cultivation was only at Fighter 1-dan Juxi realm. His body was only filled with internal breathing and his zhenqi had yet to form. Without a year or two of effort, it would be impossible for him to open up the internal breathing circulation channels in his body.
However, it was different now.
Miss Zhang's zhenqi was extremely pure. Wherever it went, the blocked meridians in his body would be cleared up. In less than two breaths, a smooth circulation was opened up. Her internal breathing flowed freely without the slightest shackles.
"I have … mastered it just like that?"
With the flow of his internal breathing, Zheng Yang immediately understood that he had mastered this spear art. It was as though he had immersed himself in it for several years.
"Alright, I will leave this surge of zhenqi in your body for now. Continue to act as though you are exhausted. When you fight with Zhou Tian, make sure to strike him in a single blow!"
Zhang Xuan's voice sounded.
Understanding his intentions, Zheng Yang nodded his head. At the same time, he was perplexed … Why was Miss Zhang's zhenqi able to remain in his body without any conflict?
Due to the difference in the cultivation technique of a fighter, the attribute of one's zhenqi is different as well. Thus, when a person's zhenqi enters another's body, not only would it not be able to help the other party achieve a breakthrough, it could even clash with the other party's zhenqi, causing one's cultivation to go berserk.
Yet, when Miss Zhang's zhenqi entered his body, there wasn't the slightest bit of conflict. This was inconceivable to him.
However, he knew that this wasn't the time to be thinking about such things. Thus, 'struggling', he clasped his hands and said, "Zhou laoshi, come!"
After which, he walked leisurely towards the Teacher Dueling Platform.
Seeing how he looked as though he would be blown away by the wind at any moment, the crowd stared at one another in dismay.
The heck, is he for real?
Learning a spear art that even a pig could execute and a body that could faint at any moment, how is he going to fight …
Zhou Tian's face twitched and a thought suddenly appeared in his mind.
He had fallen into a trap.
This fellow must have been intending to abandon this student of his so as to make things difficult for him.
To teach a move that can't even kill a chicken to deal with him … Doesn't that mean that he is inferior to a chicken?
"Zhang Xuan, you win!"
Thinking that the other party was intentionally humiliating him, Zhou Tian gritted his teeth and leaped onto the dueling platform.
"I beseech Zhou laoshi to go easy on me …"
Feigning weakness, Zheng Yang struggled to lift his spear.
Seeing how he was drenched in sweat from such a simple action, everyone was speechless.
It had been many years since anyone challenged the Teacher Dueling Platform. Who would have thought that the first challenge would be so bizarre?
If word were to spread out, it would surely shock the heavens and the earth.
"Teacher … Why don't I replace Zheng Yang?"
Zhao Ya couldn't help but ask.
"Just watch!" Zhang Xuan didn't bother to explain.
Seeing her teacher's confident expression, Zhao Ya was perplexed. However, she didn't dare to ask any questions and turned her gaze back to the dueling platform.
"Go easy? If you want to blame someone, blame it on you, Miss Zhang! "
Guessing Zhang Xuan's intentions, Zhou Tian was infuriated.
"Then … I apologize for my impoliteness!"
Zheng Yang knew that if he didn't make a move, the other party wouldn't make the first move due to his identity. Thus, he didn't waste any words and stabbed his spear forward.
The tip of the spear tilted, as though it was devoid of strength.
It was the trashy move that Zhang Xuan had taught him previously.
"Hmph!"
Seeing that the other party dared to use it, Zhou Tian's rage grew. Harrumphing coldly, he suppressed his cultivation to Fighter 1-dan Juxi realm. Without using any weapon, he faced the other party with his palm.
Barehanded against a spear!
Even so, not a single person beneath the dueling platform thought that Zheng Yang would win. They felt that this fellow was doomed.
"This is the moment …"
Seeing that the other party had underestimated him and faced him barehanded, Zheng Yang's eyes lit up. The surge of zhenqi that Zhang Xuan had left in his body was triggered, and his appearance instantly changed. If he was a docile sheep a moment ago, at this moment, he had turned into a ferocious tiger.
Boom!
A glint of a spear pierced toward Zhou Tian's chest.
"What?"
Narrowing his eyes, Zhou Tian's hair stood on end.
