Chapter 119: Chapter 93: Zhang Xuan Takes Action【Two in One】_4
“Teacher…”
Witnessing the scene before them, Yu Xiaoyu and Hong Yi exchanged incredulous glances.
Who is this person?
Patriarch Liu, with his cultivation, ranked among the top in Baiyan City. To be sent flying by the teacher with a single move… Even accounting for the disadvantage due to his caught right hand, his cultivation should definitely not be underestimated!
“No wonder Father was so determined for me to apprentice under him. Could it be that he had seen through his strength long ago?”
Yu Xiaoyu’s heart skipped a beat, and a thought surfaced.
In handling the matter of apprenticing under this Zhang Xuan, City Lord Yu had a special obsession. Xiaoyu had never understood it before, and after learning the cultivation methods, she felt that what she did was right, yet only at this moment, upon witnessing this scene, did she understand… she had been superficial!
Her father must have long seen through the other party’s profound and unfathomable cultivation, which was why he had forcibly pushed her to take Zhang Xuan as her master.
School Head Lu must have also seen through him, which is why he made an exception for him…
And to think she had always felt that he was just a coachman, perhaps without any real skills.
“Teacher Zhang…” Not only did the two of them have such an expression, but even Liu Mingyue, who was kneeling on the ground, had her beautiful eyes wide open in shock.
She had decided to take a master because, firstly, he taught very well, and secondly, because of her rebellious mindset, wanting to defy… Yet, this Teacher Zhang, not only was he good at imparting knowledge, but his true strength was also so formidable!
“No matter what strength you possess, to bewitch my daughter, to make her disobey my words, you will pay a sufficient price!”
Taking a deep breath and suppressing the agitation in his organs, Liu Tianzheng roared in anger.
His daughter no longer listened to him. If he was beaten and didn’t fight back, how could he command respect from her in the future?
Gurgle gurgle gurgle!
Divine energy coursed through his body, emitting a sound similar to a frog’s croak. Liu Tianzheng no longer held back. Clenching his fist, he took a light step forward and shot out more than ten meters, appearing before Zhang Xuan.
Liu’s Martial Arts, Ink Tiger Leaping Step!
The Ink Tiger is a primordial beast with a pitch-black body, somewhat similar to a tiger, specialized in leaping. When hunting, it would ascend to the treetops for observation, and upon spotting its target, it would descend from above, delivering a fatal blow.
At this moment, Liu Tianzheng, employing the Leaping Step without launching an attack, demonstrated great power nonetheless. Just the arrival of his presence, without making a move, felt like a fierce wind,
Zhang Xuan remained expressionless and did not dodge, merely flicking his finger.
His finger movement was subtle, but the direction was extremely tricky. If Liu Tianzheng didn’t dodge, it would precisely hit a vital point on his body, causing him to lose strength.
“Eh!” Caught off guard by his swift reaction, Patriarch Liu let out a light cry as he raised his arm, with his fingers splayed as if a raised whip descending from the sky.
Still one of Liu’s signature techniques, the Pu Liu Palm.
His body swayed like a willow in the wind, and his palm covered space like a dome stretching in all directions!
This technique, like a whip but not a whip, unleashed the strength bursting from the Source Pool. Relying on the movement of his thighs and waist, it exploded forward. A single strike would bring about the force of nearly 90 horses.
Before the palm even fell, the wind became swift and sharp, as if a hit would shatter all the bones in one’s body on the spot.
Knowing his current cultivation wasn’t enough to withstand it, Zhang Xuan shifted his body slightly to the side, taking only half a step, but it was this half step—neither too much nor too little, just perfect—that allowed him to dodge all the power of the Pu Liu Palm.
This was precisely the flaw of the technique.
Even without using the Library of Heaven’s Path, as a master of a realm with countless battles, he could still spot the crux of the issue at a glance.
Avoiding the attack, Zhang Xuan counterattacked with a kick.
This move, blending feints and solid strikes, dazzled onlookers. Before Liu Tianzheng could react, he was kicked in the abdomen, flying backward once more and collapsing to his knees upon landing.
This hit was even more damaging than the last, and it was even more humiliating…
If one could argue that the previous lucky win was due to him grabbing his arm, this time, after he employed his ultimate technique and retaliated, he was still sent flying by a kick…
How could this youth, in his mere twenties, be so formidable?
Struggling to his feet, Liu Tianzheng looked over again, filled with solemnity.
“I admit that I underestimated you before, but not this time…”
Taking a deep breath and clenching his fist, Patriarch Liu, who had suffered defeats twice in succession, jolted, as a powerful aura burst forth like mercury scattering. Just as he was about to make a move, an urgent chiding came.
“Patriarch Liu, what are you doing?”
Eight words in total. When saying “Liu,” the voice was still two hundred meters away, but by the time “doing” was spoken, the figure had already appeared before them.
“This is Baiyan Academy, not your Liu Clan!”
A palm strike descended, and Liu Tianzheng was sent reeling back seven or eight steps, like being hit by a high-speed train, before he finally stopped.
Having repelled him, Lu Mingrong looked at Zhang Xuan not far away, full of concern and tension, “Teacher Zhang, how are you? This guy didn’t hurt you, did he?”
