"The fifth seed? Is she more powerful than the ninth seed? "Lou Cheng's mother, Qi Fang, asked nervously when she saw the result of the draw.
She vaguely remembered that Jiang Fei had said so, but she was not sure.
"Yes," Jiang Fei answered softly, feeling a little nervous.
Although he and Cao Lele had never expected Lou Cheng to be the champion or runner-up, they sincerely hoped that he could achieve his goal since his old classmate had said that his goal was to be in the top four. Who would have thought that he would encounter a strong opponent who was ranked fifth at the beginning of the round of 16? It really made people worried about the result.
His luck wasn't bad at all!
"I thought that the top eight would be the beginning of the test …" Qiu Hailin sighed. Qi Yunfei and the other girls unconsciously clenched their fists.
…
In Lou Cheng's fan forum, "Eternal Nightfall" Yan Xiaoling tagged "Unparalleled Dragon King" and "Okamoto's Fan" immediately. "Quick, tell me what's so good about Qiu Lin? I've read her information and I'm confused! "
She was always calm and never pretended to be strong.
"Unparalleled Dragon King" replied with a "funny" emoji. "She's good. I think she can compete with Lou Cheng. Their characteristics overlap."
"Can you say it all in one breath?" Yan Xiaoling said with a "furious" emoji.
"I'm worried that your IQ is low. If I say too much, you won't understand." "Unparalleled Dragon King" was used to criticizing the moderator.
He thought that this was the best thing about the little girl. She would not get angry no matter how they criticized her. Instead, she would cooperate with them to make the forum full of a cheerful atmosphere. However, sometimes she would become inexplicably irritable and delete friends. She was moody.
"That's true … Take your time." Yan Xiaoling was not angry. She replied with a "humph".
"Unparalleled Dragon King" replied with a "red face" emoji, "Lou Cheng can complete six consecutive bursts. She can do the same …"
"Why? Why? Her supernatural ability is not physical strength! "" Brahman "also appeared. She was very puzzled.
"Unparalleled Dragon King" quickly replied, "It's a long story. Let me drink some hot sh * t and tell you all about it … Qiu Lin was born in a martial arts family and had the supernatural ability to metalize part of her body. However, she didn't walk the path of a supernatural ability fighter. Instead, she devoted herself to practicing martial arts. At the age of 18, she obtained the certificate of Professional Ninth Pin with the" Vajra Fist "and" Lotus Steps "that were passed down in her family. She became a rising star in the martial arts world of Xing Province.
"But she wasn't satisfied with that. She felt that the martial arts passed down in her family weren't perfect enough. So she took her ancestor's relics and went to Daxing Temple. As you all know, Daxing Temple is a temple of monks. How could they accept a female disciple? She went to the mountainside pavilion every day to ask for help, rain or shine. For a whole year, Abbot Fayuan of Daxing Temple showed her mercy and allowed her to enter the temple for seven days to study the illustrations of the three Physical Invulnerability Kungfu, the Lotus Seal of Vajra Realm, the Six Syllables Sanskrit Mantra of Womb Realm."
"And then? And then?" Yan Xiaoling urged as if she was listening to a story.
This little sister's experience was quite interesting!
"And then? Qiu Lin learned something from the Vajra Fist and improved her family's Lotus Steps. She also mastered the Hum Sound of the Six-Syllable Sanskrit Mantra. Once she recited it, she could squeeze out her body's potential, relieve fatigue, and temporarily stimulate her qi and blood to improve her strength. She used this to complete five consecutive bursts in the first half of the year. "
"Sounds awesome …" "Brahman" praised sincerely. "But she could only make five consecutive bursts. She couldn't compare with my idol's six consecutive bursts. And my idol hadn't reached his limit yet. "
"Good math!" "Okamoto's Fan" interrupted.
"Unparalleled Dragon King" replied, "Knock on the blackboard! Focus on the key points! The Hum Sound, which squeezes out one's potential, can only be used once a day. Otherwise, you won't be able to fight in the following matches. Even if you only use it once, it will leave a residual fatigue and affect the following matches. "
"Wait, how do you pronounce the Hum Sound? It sounds like a cow's cry. Don't you think it's embarrassing to make a cow's cry during a fight? "Yan Xiaoling asked after a moment of silence.
"Hong, four sounds. You're welcome!" "Okamoto's Fan" roared to the sky.
…
"Cheng?" Hearing Wang Lili's raised voice, Lou Debang and Lou Zhiqiang looked at the TV at the same time. They didn't understand what this had to do with Lou Cheng.
At this time, the broadcast returned to the performance in the arena. They didn't notice anything.
"Mom, you saw it too?" Lou Yuanwei was happy to find an ally.
He didn't see it wrong!
"Yes, I saw it. Why is Cheng on TV? And why is he sitting in the first few rows? "Wang Lili knew that the first few rows in this kind of occasion were either rich or powerful.
Since when was Lou Cheng either rich or powerful?
"What are you talking about?" Lou Debang asked with dignity as the head of the family.
How could Cheng be on TV?
Lou Yuanwei took a breath and said, "Grandpa, wait. You'll definitely see it later!"
This world seemed to have undergone some extraordinary changes without him noticing!
"So what if you see it? What's so great about being on TV? "Lou Zhiqiang replied inexplicably.
One of the manifestations of his bad mouth was that he seldom said good things about others. For example, when someone invited him to dinner, even if there were a few dishes that didn't suit his taste or were not good enough, the normal guests would not talk about it so as not to ruin the atmosphere. Lou Zhiqiang was different. He would say it out loud and criticize it.
He would also nitpick on the gifts given by others, saying that this was not good or that.
…
After confirming his opponent, Lou Cheng didn't pay attention to the rest of the draw and performance. He lowered his head and discussed the details of Qiu Lin with Yan Zheke.
"… Her previous opponents weren't strong. It seems that she hasn't done her best." In the end, Yan Zheke deliberately reminded him, "I heard from Gu Shuang that last month, Qiu Lin said in a private party that her goal was to reach the top three in this Youth Tournament. She must have some confidence to say so."
"Didn't I also say that my goal was to reach the top four …" Lou Cheng complained and pretended to be pitiful. He took the opportunity to ask for benefits. "This opponent is very strong! Coach Yan, I need more encouragement! "
For example, he could shout out the complete word "darling"!
"Hmm, wait and see." Yan Zheke rolled her eyes and scolded Cheng in her mind. He was getting more and more insatiable!
Eh, Ke actually agreed so easily? I'm a little nervous … Lou Cheng looked at the words in surprise and felt a little nervous.
Facing such a strong opponent, Ke wouldn't play a prank, would she?
He didn't dare to ask for more details, fearing that Yan Zheke would go back on her words. He could only suppress his doubts and turn his attention back to his opponent.
…
In the first match, the No.1 seed, Zhang Zhutong, and the No.4 seed, Zuo Zhen, fought fiercely. It took six and a half minutes for the winner to be decided. Zhang Zhutong gained the advantage and was the first to enter the top eight.
This allowed Lou Cheng, who was watching from the sidelines, to witness the power of his Furnace Force stacking up close.
After the song and dance performance, the referee and the game supervisor changed places to recover their strength.
The game supervisor walked to the center of the arena and raised his right hand.
"The second match of the top 16, Lou Cheng VS Qiu Lin!"
"It's really Cheng!" In the living room of the Lou family, Lou Yuanwei suddenly stood up. Lou Debang picked up his reading glasses in disbelief.
Wang Lili and her husband looked at each other, feeling like they were in a dream.
Lou Cheng took a deep breath and stood up from his seat. He sent a message to his girlfriend.
"Coach Yan, I'm going to the arena!"
Your encouragement should have arrived by now, right?
Yan Zheke hummed in a low voice and pretended to be surprised.
"Cheng, I'm at the airport."
"Airport?" Lou Cheng was stunned at first, then he understood and burst with joy. "You're coming back?"
This was what he had been looking forward to for days!
"I'll see you tomorrow." Yan Zheke sent a shy smile. "Are you satisfied with this encouragement?"
"Yes! Satisfied! "Lou Cheng's face lit up with joy. He breathed heavily and his heart was full of motivation.
I can't lose this match! I can't welcome Coach Yan with failure!
He put away his phone and strode along the glorious road. Under the focus of the cameras, he confidently and calmly stepped into the arena and handed his belongings to the former referee and the current match supervisor.
Qiu Lin entered the arena at about the same time as him. She wore a light yellow martial arts suit with black stripes embroidered with the words "So I Have Heard" embroidered on the front. The big screen also showed the words behind her.
"I'm the best in the world!"
These words were not domineering, but had a touch of Zen charm.
She was half a head taller than Lou Cheng, with very short hair and neutral facial features. She looked handsome and valiant. After the referee announced the start of the dialogue, she smiled and said,
"You're now the public enemy of the martial arts circle in Gao Fen."
"What do you mean?" Lou Cheng was surprised.
What did I do to deserve this?
Qiu Lin smiled and said, "You've only studied martial arts in another province for a year and you've already beaten everyone else. Doesn't this show that our martial arts circle is too weak?"
She was only 21 years old, but she was proficient in all kinds of catchphrases.
"You think too much …" Lou Cheng was a little amused.
"There's no first place in literature, and no second place in martial arts. It's normal to have comparisons in martial arts." Qiu Lin smiled and said, "So, we all agree that we can't let you enter the finals. Otherwise, why do you think you'll meet me in the round of 16? Believe me, if you win today, your opponent tomorrow will be either Han Zhifei or Zhang Zhutong. "
No way? Is it true or not? Lou Cheng was stunned and soon realized that he had been tricked by Qiu Lin.
Is she trying to arouse my resentment? Shake my mind?
Then use Buddhist Zen to restrain me?
Lou Cheng took a deep breath and visualized the scene of freezing water into ice. He froze all kinds of distracting thoughts and made his mind as clear as a mirror.
No matter whether it's true or not, no matter who tomorrow's opponent is, I have to do a good job in this match first!
He stopped talking and closed his eyes to adjust the state of his body.
The former match supervisor and current referee looked at the electronic clock and raised his right hand again.
"Begin!"
Boom! There was a sudden explosion in the arena and a clap of thunder on the ground. Qiu Lin's martial arts suit swelled and she stepped in front of Lou Cheng.
Lotus Steps, Buddha Voice Accompanying Steps! Lou Cheng was shocked. He didn't expect Qiu Lin to have mastered the Buddha Voice Accompanying Steps, a family heirloom.
It was normal to make a crisp sound by punching, lashing, and kicking the air. However, it was not the same for body movements. One had to cultivate to a certain extent before they could create a sonic boom due to the high speed movements, clever changes in direction, and corresponding changes in the muscles and fascias as the "force" circulated. The Taoists called it "Setting Up Spirit and Stepping on Battle", while the Zen Buddhism called it "Accompanying Buddha's Voice".
"Lotus Steps, Cloud and Thunder Accompanying Steps." In the broadcast room of Xing Province Satellite TV, guest commentator Yu Hong praised.
There were eight sounds in Buddhism, namely Liberation Sound, Anasrava Sound, Lion's Roar Sound, Great Lion's Roar Sound, Wisdom Sound, Great Wisdom Sound, Cloud Thunder Sound, and Great Cloud Thunder Sound. Among them, the Great Cloud Thunder Sound was the embodiment of the Gist of Samsara. According to the Buddha Voice, the sound was like thunder, which was the name of the Tempest Temple. The Great Wisdom Sound symbolized Prajna, and the Great Lion's Roar Sound represented Might, which belonged to the Kung Fu of Physical Invulnerability.
As for the remaining five sounds, they varied according to the Force and Kung Fu they practiced. Each had its own function. Due to Qiu Lin's low level, the Cloud Thunder Sound was more of an external manifestation of her body movement. However, it could produce outward vibrations to effectively eliminate the influence of Tremor Punch and enhance her momentum, which indirectly enhanced the power of the Vajra Fist.
With one step, the distance between them was close. Lou Cheng could still hear the Cloud Thunder Sound in his ears. He saw Qiu Lin approaching him, swinging her right arm and clenching her iron fist.
Her sleeves fluttered as she swung her fist. Maybe it was because of the wind, the bulging muscles, or both.
Vajra Fist, Vajra Swinging Pestle!
Lou Cheng's breathing seemed to have been affected by the strong wind created by Lotus Steps. At this critical moment, he took a step back, lowered his center of gravity, and used Force Concentration. He swung his arms out in between withdrawing and releasing, fiercely dashing forward.
Thunder Roar Zen, Retreating Shock!
At the beginning, he used the outburst of the Dan stage without hesitation!
Bam!
The "cannonball" exploded on the spot, creating a shockwave. Under Lou Cheng's full force attack, Qiu Lin, who had yet to use Force Concentration, was like a dandelion seed in the wind. Her feet floated backward.
Lou Cheng's right fist hit the metal. It was so painful that he wanted to shake it a few times. However, under such circumstances, how could he let go of this opportunity? He took a deep breath and used Force Concentration again. He was ready to pounce forward and take advantage of the situation.
At this moment, Qiu Lin stopped the slight vibration. Her body swayed like a lotus, and she started to move around with mysterious footwork. It seemed to be from left to right, but it seemed to be from right to left.
Rumble! She changed her body shape, followed by clouds and thunder. The arena seemed to be immersed in dark clouds, and the sound of thunder kept echoing.
Lou Cheng couldn't determine Qiu Lin's position. The condensed qi, blood, force, and spirit were about to erupt, but there was no target.
This time, his Double Explosion seemed to have missed its target.
This was Qiu Lin's strategy. She tricked Lou Cheng into using his Dan stage outburst, and then took advantage of the moment when he took a breath to attack!
I don't believe you can make ten or twenty consecutive explosions!
Boom! With the sound of clouds and thunder, Qiu Lin took the opportunity to flash to Lou Cheng's side.
"Eh …" Yu Hong, the guest commentator in the TV studio, suddenly said in surprise.
He saw that Lou Cheng was still standing there quietly. His body was empty, and his breath and spirit were still condensed. There was no change.
This seemed normal, but in Yu Hong's eyes, it was very abnormal!
The Force Concentration of a Dan stage martial artist used the will as a fulcrum to condense and condense the qi, blood, force, and spirit. Once they condensed into a fulcrum, there would be rejection before they could completely merge, and they would inevitably erupt uncontrollably.
In other words, as long as the Force Concentration was completed, there would be an outburst of force in the next moment. There would be no delay, unless the martial artist had broken through the Dan stage.
That was why Qiu Lin tried to trick Lou Cheng into using Lotus Steps to break out the Dan stage.
However, Lou Cheng had been using Force Concentration for more than one second!
What kind of talent was this? What kind of supernatural ability was this? Teacher Yu Hong frowned.
…
Since Qiu Lin's position was changing and he couldn't lock onto her, Lou Cheng didn't rush out. He continued to maintain the state of Force Concentration, waiting for his opponent's next move.
As for why he could maintain it?
Wasn't this normal? All this time, the Jindan in his body hadn't collapsed or disintegrated.
The Force Concentration that imitated the Jindan could maintain its balance by rotating, unless he changed it himself.
If it weren't for the fact that the other parts of his body couldn't withstand this state, he could maintain it until the end of time!
Boom!
Qiu Lin rushed to Lou Cheng's side from an incredible angle. A light flashed across her face, and her expression became solemn. Then she withdrew her qi and blood and used Force Concentration. Her muscles swelled and turned into a mighty Vajra. She swung her left fist with a metallic luster from above.
When she got close, she noticed Lou Cheng's strange state. But the arrow was on the string, so she had to shoot!
I've been waiting for you! Lou Cheng let go of his thoughts. The qi and blood in his Dantian gushed out, and his force surged like a tide. He swung his left shoulder and punched back with his right arm.
Thunder Roar Zen, Single Hand Shock!
Bam! Another explosion sounded. Both of them shook. Their short hair was blown away by the wind, and they lost control of their feet. Finally, they stepped on the black bricks and broke them.
Boom! Qiu Lin operated her force and footwork. She endured the effect of the shock and flashed behind Lou Cheng in a strange way. She used Force Concentration and punched with her right fist. Vajra Strikes the Bell!
Double Explosion!
Almost at the same time as she punched, Lou Cheng took a big step forward. He withdrew his qi and blood, condensed them into a ball, and burst out with a loud bang.
He leaned sideways and swept his right arm in a fierce arc toward Qiu Lin behind him.
Thunder Roar Zen, Horse Shock!
Bam! When the two collided, Qiu Lin's muscles wriggled, her fascia contracted, and her strength gathered. In an instant, she condensed Lou Cheng's remaining strength, her qi and blood, and the involuntary shock into a single point.
This was a brilliant defense and borrowing technique. Vajra Fist, Wisdom King Guards the Temple, Immovable as a Mountain!
She stood firmly in the same place, neither swaying nor moving. Lou Cheng's blow seemed to have no effect on her.
At this moment, a point in Qiu Lin's Dantian exploded. The surging and violent force almost expanded her body, making her blood vessels and tendons stand out and glow with a metallic luster!
She, who almost occupied Lou Cheng's line of sight, took a step forward. She "looked down" and punched fiercely, causing a series of explosions.
Vajra Fist, Vajra Subdues Demons!
Facing this blow, Lou Cheng didn't dare to take it head-on. He bounced back and retreated quickly.
Seeing this, Zhang Zhutong in the lounge sighed and said, "What a pity.
"What a pity. You can hide now, but you can't hide forever."
Facing the combination of Vajra Subdues Demons and Lotus Steps, the only way out was to meet force with force!
It seemed that he didn't have to worry about that guy's freakish physical strength.
Due to the fact that the fights below the high-ranked Dan stage couldn't last long, for the sake of the broadcast, it was impossible to have two fights today and one tomorrow. Therefore, the semifinals and the final would be held on the same night!
…
"Om!"
At this moment, Qiu Lin's bones and tendons rang at the same time. She uttered a solemn and grand Zen sound from her mouth.
The Zen sound reverberated in her body, making her face red and her qi and blood vigorous. She seemed to be stimulated by something. She was no longer weak and returned to her initial state.
I can't give Lou Cheng any chance!
Taking advantage of the momentum of punching forward, Qiu Lin made another burst of strength. Lotus flowers bloomed under her feet, closing the distance between her and Lou Cheng in one step. Lou Cheng couldn't dodge and didn't even have time to use Force Concentration.
Her momentum was so strong and her posture was so fierce that even the ignorant audience could see who had the upper hand!
At this moment, Lou Cheng suddenly stopped. He stomped his feet, swung his body backward, and threw out a punch.
He didn't use Force Concentration, so this punch looked so weak.
However, in his mind, a red sun was crashing down and crashing into the frozen river!
He didn't retreat to escape, but to numb his enemy and boost her momentum in preparation for this fatal blow.
Thunder Roar Zen, Severe Warning!
Bam!
The two fists collided. Lou Cheng flew backward like a kite with a broken string. If he hadn't done so, he wouldn't have been able to neutralize the terrifying strength of Vajra Subdues Demons and the dreadful metalized body. Otherwise, he would have suffered bone fractures or even broken bones.
"She won …"
"Qiu Lin won!"
Many of the audience made a judgment. At this moment, as long as Lou Cheng caught up with Qiu Lin and gave her a final blow, victory would be within reach.
However, Qiu Lin was stunned in the arena. Her face quickly turned pale, her lips turned purple, and her eyes seemed to be frozen, with little life in them.
She seemed to have comprehended the meaning of Buddha at this moment and went on a mental journey!
Lou Cheng landed on his feet and took two steps back to neutralize the force. Then, he gathered his Force Concentration and jumped back to Qiu Lin. He opened his right hand and grabbed her throat.
At this moment, Qiu Lin felt that she had just woken up from a long period of ice. She hurriedly metalized her neck to resist the enemy's attack.
However, Lou Cheng's attack was just a feint. He took advantage of Qiu Lin's slow Absolute Reaction because she hadn't fully recovered. He swung his center of gravity and flashed to the back of his opponent. He clapped his hands together and landed them on his opponent's temples.
The referee was stunned. He raised his right hand and shouted,
"Lou Cheng wins!"
The audience was silent. No one responded.
