Youngster Wei was the son of the Duke of Wei, as well as Wang Chong's childhood friend.
Youngster Wei was the son of the Duke of Wei, as well as Wang Chong's childhood friend. This lad's aptitude was ordinary. While others could learn a set of Horse Stance and Bow Fist in a single glance, this lad needed three days to learn it.
With such poor aptitude, others would have long given up on martial arts. However, this lad was born with a stubborn temper. The more he couldn't do something, the more he wanted to do it.
Not only so, despite his poor aptitude, not only did he enjoy sparring with others, he even liked to challenge others to a duel on the dueling ring.
The Duke of Wei was skilled in business, and he was also a wealthy man. However, Youngster Wei, who only had a monthly allowance of several gold taels, ended up being the same as someone like Wang Chong.
Putting aside the fact that he was short of money every month, when he drank with Wang Chong, Wang Chong would even have to pay for it at times.
Wang Chong was completely speechless.
If nothing unexpected happened, this lad was about to fall into someone's trap and suffer a huge setback in the Eight Gods Pavilion. Even though this lad had lost in the past, he had never lost so badly. He had lost so much that he even lost his underwear.
Furthermore, Youngster Wei couldn't let his family know of this. Thus, in order to return the money, this lad had no choice but to tighten his belt and munch on radishes for six months.
The reason why Wang Chong remembered this matter was because Youngster Wei had mentioned it to him more than once in his previous life. Every time, he looked miserable and unbearable, as if he had been trampled by an elephant.
Based on the timing, the lad's loss happened to be today.
"Youngster Wei, don't say that I didn't save you."
Wang Chong sneered in his heart.
Wang Chong wasn't in a hurry to make a move. Youngster Wei's addiction to blindly betting was incurable. Although he had been tricked and provoked this time, it was still his own fault. If he hadn't agreed to it, nothing would have happened. Wang Chong had to teach him a lesson no matter what.
Wang Chong looked at the dueling ring. The sixteen to seventeen year old young man was giggling, clearly teasing Youngster Wei. With his strength, he could have ended the battle a long time ago. However, he deliberately humiliated him in this way in front of everyone.
Each time Youngster Wei was sent flying in a pathetic manner, it would cause the surrounding crowd to burst into laughter.
"… Since you're so arrogant, you can't blame anyone else. You asked for it!"
Wang Chong looked at the 16 or 17 year old tall youth. Seeing that the time was right, he immediately made his move.
"Youngster Wei, cross your elbows in the horse stance! Young Sparrow Hawk Somersault! "
Wang Chong's voice was mixed in the crowd, neither loud nor soft. However, when Youngster Wei heard it, his entire body quivered. He seemed to uncontrollably execute Wang Chong's moves, coiling his legs and grabbing onto the ground. Just as that 16 or 17 year old tall youth was about to send a Cloud Hand over, Youngster Wei suddenly did a backflip and sent a ferocious kick at that tall youth's face.
Bang!
The tall young man was kicked, and his whole body flew out. He flipped six to seven feet away and lay on the ground. His whole body was stuffy.
Weng!
The air in the entire third floor of the Eight Gods Pavilion seemed to have been sucked dry. The noisy crowd suddenly fell silent. Looking at the tall young man who was suddenly sent flying, none of them could say a word.
"Who is it? Who dares to spout nonsense! "
Sprawled on the ground, the tall young man flew into a rage. His eyes swept across the surroundings viciously.
The surroundings were silent, and no one spoke a word.
"Hehe, Gao Fei! What nonsense are you spouting? If you can fight, then get up. If you can't, then hurry up and kowtow to me and admit defeat. "
On the other side, Youngster Wei was overjoyed. He knew who that voice belonged to. In that instant, he instinctively followed the other party's instructions and waved his hands. He didn't expect that the effects would be far beyond his expectations.
He really loved that 'bastard' who was giving him pointers behind his back.
"Hmph! Don't get gleeful! If not for a moment of carelessness, do you think that you would be able to defeat me with that lousy martial arts of yours? "
The young man named Gao Fei flew into a rage. Pushing against the ground with his hands, he leaped up from the ground and pounced toward Youngster Wei like a cheetah.
Boom!
The air exploded and a massive shadow of a fist pierced through space like a whip, smashing toward Youngster Wei. He had executed the Full Arm Fist.
Gao Fei clearly felt humiliated after being sent flying by Youngster Wei in a single move. Thus, he finally unleashed his true strength out of hatred.
"Not good!"
Youngster Wei's face paled and every single strand of hair on his body stood on end. The martial arts that Gao Fei executed were much more formidable than before.
"Coiling Roots of an Old Tree!"
"Azure Dragon Crouching on the Bridge!"
"Steel Chains Traversing the River!"
Wang Chong faintly smiled. From behind, he could see everything clearly and immediately gave three pointers. These three pointers were all moves that Youngster Wei had practiced to the point of familiarity.
Boom!
In the first move, Youngster Wei's body bent down and coiled up like the roots of an old tree. At almost the same instant that he bent down, a heavy fist brushed past his hair.
In fact, Youngster Wei could even feel his scalp going numb.
Boom!
In the second move, when Gao Fei changed his move and punched out with a tremendous force, Youngster Wei's body turned as limp as a noodle. Bending backward, he was like a green dragon lying on a bridge, dodging the attack once more.
"It's my turn!"
Youngster Wei's eyes lit up. Without needing Wang Chong's pointers, he roared and his body bounced up like a bent bamboo, executing the Steel Chains Traversing the River.
Boom!
This punch landed on Gao Fei's chest. Youngster Wei had exerted all of his strength, and Gao Fei's face turned from white to red. With a boom, he was sent flying like a cannonball, smashing through a railing and a few round tables before slamming heavily onto the ground.
"Hahaha, I've won, I've won! I've struck it rich this time! Gao Fei, you bastard, and all of you bastards! To think that you would bet on me losing! I'll make you lose so badly that even your underwear will fall off! "
Youngster Wei looked at Gao Fei who was sent flying and shouted excitedly.
That single sentence caused half of the Eight Gods Pavilion to fall silent. Their eyes were filled with resentment as they stared at Gao Fei.
"Gao Fei, you trash. To think that you can't even defeat a mere Wei Hao! "
"You made me lose so much money. Don't come to the Eight Gods Pavilion ever again!"
"If I see you again, I'll find a few people to beat you up!"
"Pui! How unlucky! "
…
The surrounding profligate scions who had lost started cursing. In the Eight Gods Pavilion, Wei Hao was the 'God of Fortune'. As long as it was a duel that he attended, everyone would be able to earn some money.
The stakes for this duel were huge, and Wei Hao thought that he would be able to earn some money. To think that Gao Fei would be so useless that he actually lost.
Wei Hao didn't bother about Gao Fei, who was being scolded. Turning around, he opened his arms and dashed toward Wang Chong.
"Hahaha, good brother, you've finally come to the Eight Gods Pavilion to look for me!"
Wei Hao was overjoyed. He hugged Wang Chong tightly and burst into laughter.
"You're really my good brother. You've really helped me greatly this time. Otherwise, I would have lost miserably! "
"Since you know, you should gamble less next time. At the very least, you should see who your opponent is. That fellow is much more formidable than you. "
Wang Chong reprimanded jokingly.
"Hehe, that won't do. I've been dueling since I was five. If you want me to give up on dueling, I'd rather lose some money and munch on carrots every day. "
Wei Hao chuckled.
Wang Chong was speechless. He could only shake his head.
"Wait a moment! Wei Hao, this doesn't count! "
Suddenly, a loud shout sounded. Gao Fei, who had been berated by the other scions, stood up and shouted anxiously in the direction of Wei Hao and Wang Chong.
"Why? Gao Fei, are you going back on your words? "
Hearing the shout, Wei Hao's eyebrows shot up. He turned around with a displeased expression.
"Who helped you just now? Wei Hao, you went against the rules of the competition and asked for help! Damn it, who was the one who spoke just now? Come out now! "
Gao Fei shouted loudly, his face filled with unwillingness.
If it wasn't for that bastard hiding in the crowd helping him, how could Wei Hao win against him?
"Are you looking for me?"
Hearing this, Wang Chong smiled and walked out from the crowd.
Seeing Wang Chong walking out from the crowd, Gao Fei's pupils shrank. A fierce glint flashed across his eyes. But before he could get angry, Wei Hao had already welcomed him with a big smile.
"Hahaha, kid! I knew it was you! "
Wei Hao walked over and hugged Wang Chong.
"Gao Fei, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. Which eye of yours saw that I broke the rules? Did I find someone to fight with you? Or did my brother go up the stage? Right, let me tell you, this isn't anyone. This is my good brother, Wang Chong! "
Wei Hao turned around, looked at Gao Fei and the crowd and said proudly.
"Youngster Wei, stop sucking up! … "
Wang Chong burst into laughter. Just as he was about to ask Wei Hao to restrain himself, he suddenly heard a gasp. Wang Chong's heart skipped a beat. He lifted his head and realized that the gazes of the crowd had changed. It was completely different from before!
Even Gao Fei looked at him with fear and awe in his eyes, which was completely different from before.
"Hmm?"
Wang Chong frowned. He was a little surprised, unable to understand why such a change would occur.
"Hehe! Why are you so surprised? You are a famous person in the capital now. "
Wei Hao lowered his voice and chuckled beside Wang Chong's ears.
"Yao Feng is such a proud and aloof person. He is known as one of the eight talents of the younger generation in the capital. Ordinary people wouldn't even bother to look him in the eye. Even we have to respectfully call him Young Master Yao."
"But such an unparalleled figure was actually beaten up by you. Old Master Yao even reported it to the Holy Emperor. This matter caused quite a stir in the capital. There wasn't a single descendant of an aristocratic family who didn't know about it. Everyone is filled with admiration for you! "
"Now, everyone is saying that you are a dormant tiger. You are much stronger than that Yao Feng!"
Wei Hao patted Wang Chong's shoulder and said proudly.
He didn't know what tiger or leopard was. He only knew that this was his good brother. If his good brother was famous, it meant that he was famous! Hahaha …
Wang Chong was truly astonished!
Previously, when he was with Cousin Wang Zhu Yan, Wang Chong was still thinking of how he could cooperate with her to remove the negative influence on the upper echelons of the Tang dynasty. He didn't expect to reap such unexpected rewards from these scions!
Feeling the respectful and admiring gazes from the surroundings, Wang Chong suddenly realized that the benefits that the Vast Crane Pavilion had brought him weren't as simple as what he had gained from his clan!
There were many scions in the Tang dynasty, and all of them were proud and wouldn't submit to others easily.
