Chapter 8: Mastering Tiger Subduing, Liu Chengchuan's Thoughts
The tension between the two was palpable.
The surrounding disciples, no matter what they were doing, all turned to look at them.
However, just as the two were about to make their move, Liu Xinnian spoke up.
She stood between the two of them, first turning to look at Luo Hao, and said:
"Senior Brother, please give me some face. Qin Wu is right. Fists and feet have no eyes. Let's talk about sparring another day."
Then he looked at Qin Wu, his eyes filled with apology, and said:
"I'm sorry, my senior brother was too impulsive, but there's no deep-seated hatred between you two, so there's no need to make things too ugly."
Luo Hao's face turned ashen. He really wanted to take action, but looking at Liu Xinnian blocking his way, he could only suppress his anger.
But the coldness in his eyes grew even colder.
Meanwhile, Qin Wu looked at Luo Hao, whose eyes were icy cold, and suddenly laughed.
"Since you've both spoken up, I'll naturally give you face. As long as he doesn't cause me any trouble, I can let him go."
However, there was one more thing that Qin Wu didn't say.
That depends on whether Luo Hao can resist causing him trouble.
Judging from Luo Hao's expression, he clearly couldn't hold back.
Liu Xinnian breathed a sigh of relief.
"Thank you. I will have my father personally mediate your conflict later."
At this moment, she was in a very good mood.
Seeing that neither side intended to fight, Liu Xinnian quickly left, as this matter could not be delayed any longer.
We must try our best to resolve the conflict between the two.
However, she also knew that she couldn't do it on her own.
Luo Hao isn't the type to let people off easily.
Although she hadn't had much contact with Qin Wu, she knew that he was definitely not someone anyone could easily manipulate.
Seeing Liu Xinnian leave, Qin Wu ignored the various expressions on the faces of the crowd and continued practicing the Tiger-Taming Fist.
Luo Hao walked over, his face cold, and said:
"Kid, this isn't over yet. I'll make you regret offending me."
"Then I'll be looking forward to it."
Qin Wu spoke calmly, saying that after practicing for so long, he also wanted to try his hand at boxing.
True martial arts cannot be achieved through mere practice; true strength is forged through fighting and battle.
In the backyard of the martial arts school, Liu Xinnian entered the room.
"Father, Senior Brother is causing trouble for Qin Wu again."
Upon hearing this, Liu Chengchuan frowned and sighed.
"Your senior brother has good talent, but unfortunately, he lacks the right temperament. In particular, in recent years, no one in the martial arts school has been his match, and no one has been able to suppress his increasingly outrageous behavior."
"If it weren't for his temperament, I would have already passed on the core techniques of the Tiger-Taming Fist to him."
Liu Xinnian hesitated for a moment, then said:
"Father, I don't think our eldest brother will let this go. Why don't you step in and warn him?"
Qin Wu has been practicing martial arts for less than two months, and he has only been practicing the Tiger-Taming Fist for half a month. Even with his exceptional talent, he has probably only just begun to grasp the basics of the Tiger-Taming Fist.
The gap between the two is too big...
"That's not necessarily true."
Liu Chengchuan shook his head.
Qin Wu's progress in practicing the Tiger-Taming Fist was so fast that it made him question his own existence.
However, Luo Hao has practiced martial arts for many years, has a solid foundation, and is more experienced, so he couldn't say exactly how much of a difference there was between the two.
Liu Chengchuan's mind raced, and he spoke:
"Nian'er, how about I betroth you to that young Qin?"
"Um?"
Liu Xinnian was taken aback for a moment, and did not immediately refute, but hesitated.
Liu Chengchuan continued:
"If we take Qin Wu as our son-in-law, your senior brother will naturally not dare to target him anymore. Moreover, Qin Wu is exceptionally talented. Although he started learning martial arts a bit late, his future is still promising."
Now that he has achieved minor mastery of the three external techniques and has the resources of the martial arts school, with a little more refinement, achieving a complete transformation of his blood and marrow wouldn't be difficult, and even cultivating internal energy might not be impossible.
Liu Chengchuan's words made Liu Xinnian somewhat tempted, but after considering it for a while, she shook her head and said:
"Father, I don't know him very well yet."
In her eyes, Qin Wu was indeed stronger than her senior brother Luo Hao.
But to become Liu Xinnian's husband, what he has shown so far is not enough.
Liu Chengchuan didn't say anything.
It was just a spur-of-the-moment idea; if he really wanted to take Qin Wu as his son-in-law, he would have to test his character for a while first.
It's too early to talk about these things now.
Three more days passed.
For the next three days, Qin Wu did not go to the martial arts school, but instead practiced diligently in his own courtyard.
As Qin Wu practiced the Tiger-Taming Fist again and again, his movements became increasingly fluid.
"Tiger Subduing Fist, Tiger Intent. For some time now, I've been using Tiger Intent to control Tiger Subduing Fist, and I've gone astray."
Qin Wu's eyes gradually brightened.
"A tamed tiger is not a fierce tiger; it should be more domineering than a fierce tiger to truly deserve the title of 'tamed tiger.'"
His punches became faster and faster, and his momentum grew stronger and stronger.
Even though the tiger spirit wasn't activated, the tiger-like aura it displayed was no less impressive than when it activated its tiger spirit during its battle with Hou Xin.
"I see!"
Qin Wu looked excited.
Fuhu Fist, great success!
If people knew this, it would definitely shock many.
Even Liu Chengchuan, who became famous for his Tiger-Taming Fist, had only mastered it to a high level.
But now, Qin Wu has mastered the Tiger Subduing Fist in just half a month.
"I should go to the martial arts school. Although I have mastered the Tiger Subduing Fist, Liu Chengchuan's understanding of it is still stronger than mine. It's not just his level of skill, but more importantly, his decades of experience. If I want to perfect the Tiger Subduing Fist, the fastest way is to ask Liu Chengchuan for guidance."
He was neither self-deprecating nor arrogant.
All he knows now is punches.
But fighting isn't just about fists.
This was the first time Qin Wu had left the courtyard in three days.
The two guards from the Dragon Tiger Gang were watching him.
One of them spoke up:
"Don't you feel that this kid is getting more and more dangerous, like a tiger unleashed from its cage?"
The other guard nodded, also feeling a little uneasy.
"I heard he's learning the Tiger-Taming Fist. Could it be that he's already mastered it?"
"Huh? Are you kidding me?"
The guard who spoke looked incredulous.
"The Tiger-Taming Fist is the signature move of the headmaster of the Liu Family Martial Arts School. It's not so easy to learn. In such a short time, you can only learn the basics at most."
"That's true... Maybe it's just my imagination. People who practice martial arts are always a little different."
The two fell silent, but a sense of unease lingered in their hearts, though they couldn't quite put their finger on it.
Is it really possible for someone to master such a skill in such a short time?
impossible.
Qin Wu walked the streets, his days seemingly peaceful, yet turbulent beneath the surface.
"If you count the time, more than half a month has passed, and the young lady of the Dragon Tiger Gang has not shown up during this period."
If nothing unexpected happens, the Dragon Tiger Gang will make a move soon, so we must speed things up.
He had no intention of marrying into the family, but the Dragon Tiger Gang's status in Tai'an City was not to be underestimated.
Although he was confident, he didn't think he could defeat the entire Dragon Tiger Gang by himself.
There must be more than one martial artist from the Inner Three Gates within the Dragon Tiger Gang.
So before that, either the Dragon Tiger Gang's daughter gives up on taking him in as a son-in-law, or he has to leave Tai'an City.
But regardless of which one, sufficient strength is required as a foundation.
Fortunately, his tiger soul fusion speed was very fast.
[Tiger Soul Fusion Rate: 87%]
Judging from the progress, it should take at most five days to completely complete the fusion of the tiger soul and then activate the second soul. It's just unknown what the second soul will be.
Luo Hao noticed him as soon as he entered the martial arts school.
These past few days, he had been unable to suppress his desire to teach Qin Wu a lesson, but Qin Wu had not shown up.
His anger continued to rise.
"Qin Wu, you've finally arrived."
Luo Hao gritted his teeth and spoke.
"These past few days, when Master was instructing us, he mentioned you many times, saying that you have an extraordinary talent for the Tiger Subduing Fist."
As Luo Hao said this, his eyes were filled with insane jealousy.
Moreover, he overheard that his master actually intended to take Qin Wu as his son-in-law.
Are you kidding me!
Everyone in the martial arts school knows that Liu Xinnian is his concubine.
Luo Hao's eyes were filled with undisguised anger.
He wanted Qin Wu to know, and even more so, his master, who had the better talent and stronger strength.
Looking at Qin Wu, he said with a forced smile:
"You've gone to all this trouble to come all this way, so you absolutely have to spar with me today."
He wanted to depose Qin Wu.
As long as Qin Wu is crippled, Liu's Martial Arts School and Liu Xinnian will definitely still be his!
Seeing the murderous intent in Luo Hao's eyes.
Qin Wu's originally faint smile gradually faded, turning into a cold and calm expression.
"Very well, let's spar a bit, it will also verify our martial arts skills, and let's see if there's anything lacking in my Tiger-Taming Fist."
This long-standing problem should be resolved soon.
