I Stagger and Topple

While everyone else was focused on the martial arts match, Hu Jixian quietly approached Yu Shuying and said, "Junior Sister, I hope you can give me some advice about the next match."

Yu Shuying turned her head and gave her an inquiring look.

Hu Jixian frankly said, "I know that you, Junior Sister, possess a special ability to gather intelligence, so I hope you can help me increase my chances of winning. After all, the Wang brothers are quite powerful, and even if Ke Chajing and I join forces, our chances of winning are less than 60%."

Yu Shuying thought for a moment. She had received help from the other party in protecting the claw machine, and repaying kindness was her principle. So she nodded in agreement, then turned her head and stared at the Wang brothers for a while.

"... I've discovered a foolproof method. Those two have taken banned substances. If you report this to the organizers and request an inspection, you'll win without a fight."

"Banned drugs?" Hu Jixian slightly moved; this was a major scandal. "Was it only the two of them who took banned drugs, or were all the members involved?"

"Only those two took the banned drugs; the others used fake ones... Ha, that Chairman Chu is quite an interesting person. He's decisive, using those who are valuable and discarding those who aren't. He's flexible, bold yet meticulous—a truly outstanding individual."

In the face of Mind-Reading Technique, schemes and tricks are laughable. Although Chu Gengyin is very good at hiding his thoughts and his Internal Cultivation strength is enough to interfere with Yu Shuying's Mind-Reading Technique, others are not. They have neither enough cultivation nor enough cunning, and Yu Shuying easily uncovers the truth, which they find fascinating.

From the perspective of the Second Martial Arts Club, they didn't care at all about the legitimate Martial Arts Club's underhanded tactics, and they had never paid any attention to them. From their point of view, it was nothing more than Chu Gengyin inviting the Wang brothers as helpers. They never expected that there would be so many strange things going on. Even Yu Shuying had to admit that this Chairman Chu was indeed a man of many tricks. He could stir up so many messes in such a small pond.

"Aside from banned drugs, I can only give you one piece of advice: never think about holding back, and forget about any idea of stopping short of defeat. If you dare to hold back and show magnanimity, the other side will dare to launch a counterattack, defeat you, and then call you stupid."

Just like in yesterday's match, Liu Qingqing deliberately deviated from the direction of Mei Yan's sword when she defeated her. If she had insisted on using Sword Qi to injure someone, the referee would not have called a foul on her, because this is a normal way of fighting. Conversely, if Mei Yan were shameless and took it as if she had deflected the Sword Qi and immediately launched a counterattack, no one could provide any evidence. Even if Liu Qingqing was ultimately defeated, she could not blame her opponent.

"I accept this suggestion." Hu Jixian nodded and thanked him. "If you ever need my help in the future, such as scheming against someone in the gang, just let me know."

"Okay, I've got it." Yu Shuying didn't refuse.

The first martial arts match was clearly mismatched in strength and ended quickly, with Nie Wanzhi returning victorious.

Ke Chajing had already finished warming up and, without the referee's prompting, eagerly pulled Hu Jixian onto the stage. The Wang brothers were not to be outdone and followed closely behind.

"Have you two reserved beds at the hospital?" Wang Qing asked with a sneer, his shoulders twitching.

Not to be outdone, Ke Chajing retorted, "Don't worry, I've already made a reservation for both of you in the emergency room. The ambulance is waiting outside; don't keep them waiting too long."

Chapter 467 I stumble and fall

"Walk!"

The referee had already announced the start of the match, and Hu Jixian and Ke Chajing immediately turned and ran.

The Wang brothers were a bit confused, not knowing what was going on, but since the other party had escaped, they naturally had to give chase. Moreover, the two were in a state of excitement after taking the drug, so they couldn't calmly consider whether there was a trap.

The arena was nearly seventy meters long, half of which was over thirty meters. The Wang brothers' lightness skills weren't particularly outstanding, but in a limited arena match, lightness skills weren't very effective, so there was no need to worry about opponents using kiting tactics. Wang Ya, being slightly thinner than his brother, was slightly better, and thus, after chasing for thirty meters, the two pulled apart by about two meters.

After running all the way to the edge of the arena, Ke Chajing suddenly turned around and counterattacked. Her right hand was bright red, like a branding iron that had just come out of the furnace, radiating scorching heat. It was the Iron Refining Hand, a secret technique passed down in her family.

This martial art requires a certain amount of time to develop; otherwise, the temperature won't rise enough to reach its maximum power. This is also why Ke Chajing was able to escape and buy time.

"I was already on guard against you!"

Wang Ya arched his body, stomped his foot, bent halfway through his five knuckles, transforming them into the shape of tiger claws, and pounced. At the same time, a deep tiger roar came from his chest, and instantly the wind howled and the stench of blood filled the air, his power was immense.

This is the Wind-Slaying Tiger Claw Hand, a more advanced technique than the Tiger Claw Hand. As the saying goes, "Clouds follow the dragon, wind follows the tiger." The Tiger Claw Hand, combined with the Gale Force, greatly enhances both power and speed, and can also be used in conjunction with a roar to seize the initiative.

With her hands crossed, Ke Chajing was slightly weaker and her body was pressed down. However, she had practiced the Long-Armed Divine Ape Art, so even though her strength was slightly inferior due to her physique, it was not by much. At the same time, the high temperature of the Iron Refining Hand made Wang Ya's palms sizzle and emit the smell of burnt flesh.

Ke Chajing's ancestors were School of Names for casting iron. The Iron Refining Hand was not originally intended for combat, but rather, once mastered, it allowed her to directly reach into the furnace and touch the iron. Of course, it also required the cooperation of the family's Internal Cultivation, "The Blazing Sun Divine Art." It's not hard to imagine how high the temperature of this hand was. Under normal circumstances, Ke Chajing would hold back, as a temperature of 78 degrees Celsius is enough to burn a person. However, she had no intention of showing mercy to the Wang brothers.

However, Wang Ya was also very brave. Even though his hand was burned, he did not back down an inch. He shouted and reached out his claws to grab Ke Chajing's wrist. All he had to do was exert force to break it.

Ke Chajing took the initiative, bringing her five fingers together to form a hand blade, unleashing a horizontal slash of fiery energy— the True Yang Vermilion Blaze Saber.

During club training, Si Ming didn't just teach Nie Wanzhi; he was willing to teach anyone who wanted to learn. Since the True Yang Vermilion Blaze Saber's attributes were compatible with Ke Chajing's Cultivation Body, making cultivation twice as effective, he naturally didn't hold back.

The scorching blade energy slashed towards him, forcing Wang Ya to let go and retreat to dodge. He could endure the high temperature of the Iron Refining Hand because it wouldn't cause fatal injuries, but the True Yang Vermilion Blaze Saber was different; a fatal blow to a vital spot would kill.

While the two were exchanging blows, Hu Jixian did not coordinate with Ke Chajing to launch a pincer attack. Instead, he flipped over Wang Ya's head and used the "Soaring Wings Counterattack" move of the Drunken Immortal Crane to directly strike Wang Qing's face.

Wang Qing did not retreat. He also transformed his five fingers into claws, but his move was completely different from Wang Ya's powerful Tiger Claw Hand. His hands moved silently, like dragon claws suddenly emerging from the dark clouds. This move was the Xuanming Dragon Claw Hand.

If the Tiger Claw Hand uses hard force, then the Dragon Claw Hand uses soft force. Although the former is more powerful, the latter is more difficult to master. Hu Jixian, from a superior position, unleashed eighteen consecutive kicks, each kick causing the air to explode and leaving a white line, but Wang Qing blocked them with ease, rendering them invisible. Especially during the final collision, Wang Qing seized the opportunity to grab Hu Jixian's right leg, exerted a slight force, and twisted and tore with his wrist.

With a ripping sound, Hu Jixian's trouser leg was immediately torn open, leaving four bloody scratch marks. If he hadn't pulled his leg back in time, his hamstrings might have been severed.

But Hu Jixian ignored the injury on his leg, suddenly gathering his inner True Qi. After the eighteen kicks, his body, which should have been falling, momentarily suspended in mid-air. Then, he slashed his left leg through the air, unleashing a powerful strike that forced Wang Qing to halt his advance. Hu then used the recoil to lunge at Wang Ya's back, his hands moving in rapid succession, unleashing a series of sharp, shrill blows – this was the Drunken Fierce Tiger's "Charging Down the Mountain to Capture the Jackal."

At this moment, Ke Chajing had just escaped Wang Ya's tiger claws with the True Yang Vermilion Blaze Saber. She immediately took a deep breath, and her hands turned crimson, as if they could drip blood. The surrounding air was so hot that it became somewhat hazy.

"Hundredfold Refining of Fine Metal!"

The initial escape was for this moment of pincer attack: first, to sever the connection between the Wang brothers, and then for Hu Jixian to insert himself between them and launch a counterattack on Wang Ya's back.

At this moment, Wang Ya was in an extremely dangerous situation. He didn't have Three Heads and Six Arms, so he couldn't guard against attacks from both sides, especially since the strength of his two opponents was similar to his own.

Normally, he might have chosen to block and retreat, attacking and parrying to minimize his injuries and buy time for his brother to come and help. But after taking the medicine, he was inevitably excited, his mind filled with the passion of battle, and he didn't think about retreating at all. He opened his mouth and roared like a tiger in the forest, spewing out a strong smell of blood.

The tiger's roar immediately sent a heavy, mountain-like shock through Hu Ke and his companion. The sound vibrated their brains, making them feel nauseous and on the verge of vomiting.

After letting out a tiger's roar, Wang Ya's blood surged violently, his pores opened wide, and a large amount of heat steamed out, turning his entire face red. His hands clenched, and both the strength and speed of his movements were significantly enhanced, clearly indicating that he had used some kind of technique that could be unleashed in a short time.

But ultimately, two fists can't fight four hands. No matter how quick Wang Ya's reactions were, they couldn't match the thoroughness of his opponents' preparations. Although Hu and Ke were affected by the roar, their offensive didn't stop, only weakened slightly. During the series of exchanges, Hu Jixian entangled Wang Ya's hands, Ke Chajing seized the opportunity to rush in, striking Wang Ya's chest with a palm. If the strike landed, even if Wang Ya had practiced external martial arts and possessed a body of copper and iron, he would still be burned half to death by the blazing force.

Just then, Wang Qing arrived in time. He leaped forward, launching a series of attacks with both hands, his claws whipping through the air. To warn his opponent, he abandoned the silent style of the Xuanming Dragon Claw Hand, instead letting the wind carry a wild, fishy scent as it hurtled towards the back of Hu Jixian's head.

Hu Jixian immediately felt a chill run down his spine, his brain sending out a dangerous warning. He instinctively realized that if he were hit by the opponent's powerful gust of wind, his brain nerves would be damaged. The opponent was truly willing to use such a vicious attack.
