The strength The Emperor revealed, the gap between internal and external martial arts! / The true display of internal martial arts, a fight scene drawing attention across Great Yan

An hour later, after Chen Qi and his group returned to the Rat Stronghold, the formal filming of the martial arts scenes began. Waai Fu, being the weakest in martial arts among them, was naturally the first to appear.

Before this, Waai Fu had sparred with Shang Zhong and Tai He, and that competition left a deep impression on Waai Fu.

Tai He made the first move, Shang Zhong reacted almost immediately. However, it took her several seconds to react after hearing the sound of the collision. She was also the first of the three to give up and climb onto the pillar to admit defeat.

"Internal strength... I'm still lacking in that area. Perhaps I should go find Lee and ask him to help me find an internal strength manual to practice on? Otherwise, I'm still far from being a top-tier master."

As Waai Fu walked down the stairs, she thought about the previous sparring match. She saw the gap between them in the exchange. Although Waai Fu didn't consider herself to be that persistent in her attitude towards martial arts, she wouldn't mind becoming stronger if she could help more people.

However, Waai Fu first thought of Lee, and then of her own father. After a moment of silence... she still did not intend to seek help from Huai Tianpei.

"I must surpass him with the martial arts I've honed myself, not by learning his techniques; otherwise, I'll forever live in his shadow."

"As expected, we still have to take different paths... If all else fails, Master Chongyue and Director Chen Qi are here, so I'll go and consult them!"

As Waai Fu descended the steps, she turned to look at the Rat Stronghold. Everything around her was peaceful and harmonious... Although each house was small, everyone was trying their best to live their lives.

"Another lipstick!"

A sudden, rather sharp sound caught Waai Fu's attention. At the window, he saw that just a moment ago, Madam Wen Yue and Wei Yenwu were dancing, but the next second they were fighting fiercely.

Unlike in the script, Wei Yenwu didn't dare to fight back like the Landlord. Instead, he was completely overwhelmed by Wenyue, and the sound of slaps made Waai Fu feel uneasy.

"I hope that Officer Wei Madam Wen Yue's future married life... will be even happier."

Thinking this, Waai Fu slung her bag over her shoulder and turned to leave, just like in the script. But at that moment, the sound of a zither reached her ears and immediately caught her attention.

Not far away, one could only see the figure of the Emperor sitting upright on a stone stool, with a guzheng lying flat on a small step made of stone bricks. The Emperor played the guzheng and tuned it, as if he were just an ordinary street performer.

But Waai Fu had read the script Chen Qi had given her, and she knew that the "Heavenly Cripple" character played by the Emperor was the one in the script who came to kill her! Waai Fu didn't show any wariness about this, but instead tensed up, pretending nothing had happened as she turned and left.

"Director Chen Qi told me... to only make a move after sensing the killing intent, and to just keep moving forward before I could sense it."

"Killing intent... that's a rather vague way of putting it, but if you sense something's wrong, just turn around, right?"

Waai Fu thought the same thing, and then turned and left step by step. However, what she didn't know was that the premise of Chen Qi's "sensing the killing intent" was something that she, at her level, could not possibly perceive.

Waai Fu remained vigilant, constantly aware of the changing zither music behind her, and walked forward step by step. She didn't even realize, as she brushed past a patch of vegetation, that a section of the plant was silently severed and fell by an invisible sound wave...

"She's still young... her internal strength isn't up to par. If that attack had been a sneak attack, she would have been dead already."

Inside the screening room, Chongyue, Huai Tianpei, and several people from Penguin Logistics were all watching the filming together. The girls from Penguin Logistics were quite surprised by this completely realistic display of internal energy—because they hadn't seen any sound waves!

"The boss... he actually did that? Isn't this special effect?" Exusiai stared at the screen in disbelief. After confirming that her eyes weren't lying, she simply refused to believe that there was an attack she couldn't see.

"Texas? Can you see that?!"

"... A faint outline could be seen, like a flash of light."

Within Penguin Logistics, Texas, arguably the strongest individual fighter, could only vaguely sense a blade of light in the Emperor's attack through her own strength and intuition. She immediately became extremely serious and said:

"If we were to encounter such a person, I'm afraid that, apart from me... no one else would have been able to dodge the first attack... Fortunately, our logistics work hasn't encountered such a master."

"Killing without leaving a trace... The martial arts of the Great Yan are truly terrifying. No wonder the Great Yan Dynasty has to strictly control them."

Texas's words made everyone at Penguin Logistics swallow hard, secretly lamenting that in all their years of working in logistics, they had never encountered such a master; otherwise, they might not even know how they died.

In the future, when working in logistics... try to avoid causing as much damage as possible, especially when dealing with logistics contracts within Yan. Who knows if the Yan you're dealing with are truly skilled? Now, the Emperor, with his attire and inner strength, has given the girls at Penguin Logistics a vivid and engaging lesson.

Never underestimate those ordinary-looking, even seemingly disadvantaged, Yan; they might be much stronger than you think...

Chapter 218: The Emperor's Revealed Strength, the Gap Between Internal and External Skills!

Penguin Logistics and those familiar with the Emperor generally aware of his identity. The existence of a "Beast Lord" basically signifies the Emperor's immortality and indestructibility. However, most people are not very clear about the Emperor's past.

After all, the Emperor's lifespan is simply too long. Even long-lived beings like Wei Yenwu and Lee are considered juniors in the Emperor's eyes. Everyone only vaguely knows that the Emperor has great achievements in music and musical instruments, and they only find playing hip-hop novel now.

Now, everyone at Penguin Logistics has witnessed an extraordinary side of their boss—given the Emperor's penguin-like physique, it's hard to imagine that his flippers could actually manipulate zither strings. But in fact, the Emperor did just that. He not only actually plucked the strings, but his flippers were just as effective as a human's five fingers at playing.

More importantly, there's the manifestation of that mysterious "internal energy." Even among the many hidden masters of the Great Yan arts world, it's hard to say that even one in ten can master it, especially one that is so profound as to "kill without leaving a trace"—those are extremely rare.

Now, the Emperor has revealed to everyone this martial art, which is considered profound even in the Great Yan. It truly transforms a zither into a blade. What kind of gap is there between a true master of internal energy and a master who is still practicing external martial arts?

Even though Waai Fu knew that the person behind her harbored ill intentions, she couldn't even sense any murderous intent. She continued walking forward, unaware that the Emperor had already conducted his first test on her.

"If it really was an assassin, Waai Fu would already be dead... and this was clearly not the Emperor's full strength; he was handling it with ease."

Huai Tianpei watched the Emperor's probing in the screening room with a solemn expression. Even though he knew that Waai Fu was still far from being a true master, as a father, he couldn't help but feel lingering fear upon seeing such a scene.

This made Huai Tianpei's urgency, after filming ended today, for Waai Fu to quickly learn an internal martial art so that he wouldn't be powerless to resist powerful enemies. Meanwhile, in the film, Waai Fu didn't notice the Emperor's initial probing, and the Emperor continued to probe further.

The second time, an invisible sound wave lifted the bamboo hat on the water vat, and everything was silent; Waai Fu still did not react.

The third time, a stray cat jumped down from the eaves of the bungalow, but its shadow was suddenly split in two, and silent blood splattered on the wall beside it.

Waai Fu remained oblivious to all of this until the fourth time, when an invisible sound wave suddenly extinguished a lamp beside her, bringing her back to her senses and causing her to instinctively turn around.

At this moment, the Emperor in front of Waai Fu remained motionless except for playing the zither, but this was what terrified her the most.

Because Waai Fu didn't sense even the slightest bit of killing intent. Even when the lamp beside her was extinguished, she didn't feel any killing intent. But Waai Fu also understood that just because she couldn't sense it didn't mean the Emperor hadn't taken any action.

Waai Fu realized the vast gap between herself and the other person, but by then, it was already too late.

As the Emperor's zither music gradually rose in intensity, Waai Fu felt a gust of wind rush towards him, causing the hair on his body to stand on end, as if he could feel an invisible blade flying towards his throat!

With a whoosh! Despite not feeling any injury, it was as if his soul had been ripped away. Waai Fu had no ability to resist; his body began to collapse uncontrollably...

"Click! Excellent! This take is done! Good job Waai Fu and the Emperor! Let's prepare for the next take, and tell Tai He Shang Zhong to get ready!"

"... well?"

However, it wasn't until Chen Qi's voice rang out that Waai Fu, who was now kneeling on the ground, completely exhausted and panting heavily, slowly recovered from his "death" experience. He subconsciously looked around at the people gradually appearing around him. After a long pause, Waai Fu finally blurted out, "... I'm not dead?"

"Of course, if you're going to die, won't Huai the Martial Arts Fanatic come after me to fight to the death? Even if I die a thousand times over, he won't let me go."

At this moment, the Emperor's leisurely voice rang out. His former aura as a martial arts the Emperor vanished instantly, and he walked step by step towards the still-shaken Waai Fu. His words lacked the unfathomable depth Waai Fu Hu had felt earlier; he simply said:

"But it's not just me. That kid (Chen Qi) probably won't live long either. I wonder if Huai the Martial Arts Fanatic can beat him."

"Don't worry, if I wanted to kill you, why would I have let you have four moves? Besides, why would I use a zither when I can use a gun? Anyway, you definitely wouldn't be able to withstand a gunshot. Whether Huai Tianpei can even withstand an etched bullet is another matter."

As the Emperor spoke, looking at Waai Fu who seemed to be slowly recovering, he recalled Chen Qi's instructions to him. Then, with a slightly disdainful expression, he said to Waai Fu:

"However, your internal strength and perception are really poor. What will you do if you really encounter a master? Your martial arts fanatic father has been wandering the martial world for so many years, he must have offended quite a few people, right? Aren't you afraid they'll come after you?"

"You've run into me, otherwise, how would you have managed to dodge such a master? You'd better practice some more."

As the Emperor spoke, he turned his gaze to the other side, leaving Waai Fu, who was still stunned and lost in thought, behind. At this moment, the Penguin Logistics team had also walked over with Chen Qi. When Exusiai reached the Emperor, before the Emperor could even speak, she slid in front of the Emperor with a beautiful tackle, put her hands together, and said:

"Hehe! Boss! I used to speak a little too loudly. There's an old saying in Yan, 'A great man doesn't hold a grudge against Sarkaz, ' right? Please don't mind it~"

"Yes, yes, boss, look at those little things we did before, like using your card for online shopping and ordering takeout. How about we just let it go? We'll definitely work harder from now on~" Croissant, the lively one, also joined Exusiai, clasping her hands together and pleading with the Emperor. Undoubtedly, the Emperor's performance just now showed these two a side of the Emperor that no one else knew, and they were a little bit afraid.

Before, they only knew that the Emperor was powerful and mysterious, but they hadn't felt how that power manifested. But now that the Emperor has revealed his ability to kill without leaving a trace, the two rascals quickly came out to "pledge their loyalty," displaying their sycophantic manner.

"Are you spouting some racial innovation quote here? Get up from the ground right now! My logistics company doesn't produce people as shameful as you!"

The Emperor waved his hand dismissively, indicating that there was no need to fuss over such a trivial matter. Croissant and Exusiai, having been pardoned, stood up with grins on their faces and immediately regained their usual liveliness.

"... Boss, your martial arts are incredibly profound, but you seem to have never shown them to us before?" Texas's first focus was on the Emperor's displayed martial arts, but then she wondered why, given the Emperor's strength, he was always unexpectedly "killed" several times.

"That's all in the past. Back when I was battling it out with the Celestial Master of the Great Yan, you were still in your mother's womb."

"Also, don't even mention having me teach you martial arts. No way. You're all way past the age of learning basic skills, so don't even think about learning internal energy cultivation."

The Emperor had no desire to talk about the past, nor did he mention teaching them martial arts. In the Emperor view, the higher one's martial arts skills, the worse it was. The greater one's knowledge and abilities, the more people one would offend. He didn't want his girls to broaden their horizons in the future and offend even more people they shouldn't have.

The Emperor is courting death, but he'll be resurrected anyway. These girls from Penguin Logistics only have one life.

"Your the Emperor, you've worked hard. There's another crucial scene coming up, and I'll have to trouble you with it." Chen Qi approached and expressed his gratitude to the Emperor for coming to help. The Emperor simply waved his hand and said:

"I'm fine, this is nothing to worry about—but you, you should think about how to film this scene well."

"The internal strength that Old Lin and I possess is absolutely silent and stealthy. Even with the best equipment, you couldn't film it. You can't exactly film it just for those experts, can you?"

Internal energy attacks can only be sensed or seen by true masters. To ordinary people, a duel between internal energy masters looks like a group of people shouting "Ora Ora" at thin air, and then suddenly one of them falls down as if hit by a train, which is just like something out of a madman.

Chen Qi had, of course, considered this issue as well, and immediately smiled at the Rat King:

"Of course not. I've already had Xi prepare. She will copy your attacks, Your the Emperor and the Rat King's attacks, making them more intuitive and expressive so everyone can understand them."

"To be specific, it's similar to adding special effects, but the special effects are more intuitive. Moreover, we will provide different feedback on internal energy based on the character's strength, so everyone can intuitively feel the difference in martial arts skill levels and the gap in cultivation realms."

"... You guys in filmmaking really know how to do things. You can even film internal martial arts so meticulously." The Emperor couldn't help but sigh in admiration, and was completely relieved. It seemed there was no need to worry about the performance of "Kung Fu Hustle" after the power levels were boosted.

Filming continued, and Waai Fu, who had already finished filming, returned to the screening room with the Penguin Logistics to watch the performances of his seniors. Meanwhile, in the scene, Tai He was packing his luggage in the costume shop from his movie, while the Rat King's figure silently appeared behind Tai He.

Tai He noticed the Rat King's appearance immediately and became slightly wary. After all, in the movie, they had just offended the Axe Gang, and it was only in the middle of the night that a stranger they had never seen before came. They definitely needed to be cautious.

"Sorry, we're not open for business today."

"Making a garment is quick."

We're moving.

However, faced with Tai He's refusal, the Rat King, playing the role of "Earthly Deficient," picked up a piece of black cloth and rubbed it, trying to lower Tai He 'Tai He guard and make her approach him so he could strike. He said, "This cloth is of superior quality."

"You have good taste." Tai He saw that the other party was obviously coming for her and had already sensed the danger, but she still pretended not to notice anything and stepped forward, deliberately pulling back the black cloth to cover her face.

Clearly, Tai He had a vague idea of the identity of the character played by the Rat King. He had heard of the well-known assassins on the assassin ranking list and was now using this opportunity to probe the identity of "Earthly Deficient".

Earthly Deficient deaf and can only understand what others are saying by reading their mouths. He deliberately covered Di Que's mouth, forcing Earthly Deficient to take the initiative and thus gaining the upper hand.

"This piece of cloth has a high artistic value."

How tall?

"The third or fourth floor is that high."

When the Rat King, playing the Earthly Deficient of Tai He pull up the cloth, he couldn't make out Tai He's mouth and was completely unable to answer Tai He's question. Sure enough, he took the initiative and attacked first, his sharp claws piercing through the black cloth as he attacked Tai He!

Tai He's eyes narrowed. He was prepared and dodged the Rat King's claw. The moment the Rat King's claws slashed across the ground, a tiger's roar was clearly transmitted into the sound system without any special effects.

"Tiger Claw Hand! What Kung Fu Hustle!" Huai Tianpei couldn't help but exclaim in admiration, while Lin Yuxia had also come to watch the show, stared intently at him.

As the daughter of the Rat King, Lin Yuxia usually only knew that her father's Originium Arts were very strong and that she was no match for him. But now the Rat King was showing off his martial arts skills, which also impressed Lin Yuxia, who had some expertise in this area.

"Dad's martial arts skills are really that good? But why didn't he teach me the whole thing? He only taught me the Kung Fu Hustle." Lin Yuxia muttered to herself in surprise. Then, a thought suddenly struck her:

"Wait a minute, maybe I don't need my dad to teach me. Chongyue, Master Huai, and Director Chen Qi are all here. I don't think I need my dad to teach me martial arts?"

"But I'm not familiar with Chongyue or Master Huai... Hmm, after this movie ends, maybe I can get Chen Qi to teach me a few moves? Given my relationship with Chen Huijie, he should be willing to teach me, right?"

Lin Yuxia couldn't help but think this to herself, while the Rat King had no idea what expression he would have on his face when his intervention not only failed to make his daughter admire him, but also made Lin Yuxia want to go find Chen Qi to practice martial arts.

At this moment, the Rat King must be feeling very similarly to Wei Yenwu and Huai Tianpei... Why isn't his daughter (niece) close to them, but gets along so well with others?

The Rat King, unaware of all this, was still basking in the thought that his performance would earn him his daughter's admiration. This time, he put in more effort than ever before, and it was clear that he was using his true skills to fight Tai He.

Tai He will also realize that what was originally just filming has gradually transformed into a real fight scene where he has to use his Kung Fu Hustle. More importantly, he actually can't win...

Chapter 219: The True Manifestation of Internal Strength, the Action Scene Attracting Attention from All Sides of the Great Yan

Tai He was unaware that the Rat King was now planning to use his real skills. When Chen Qi first approached them to film the movie, he made it clear that the film would require real Kung Fu Hustle and that everyone should go all out, but Tai He didn't think it was worth it for the Rat King to compete with him.

However, after Tai He used his Iron Wire Fist and brute force to repel the Rat King, he immediately slammed his hand on the table, attaching iron rings to both hands, ready to fight the Rat King!

"Tiger Claw Hand is slightly different from Dragon Claw Hand. It uses claws as weapons and is equally adept at striking joints, dislocating tendons and bones, and is fast and swift." Chongyue also seemed quite interested in the duel between the Rat King and Tai He on camera, saying:

"If both of them are masters of external martial arts, their Iron Wire Fist is so powerful that they could suppress the opponent before the Tiger Claw Hand could even be unleashed. But Mr. Lin is also a master of internal martial arts, so in a head-on confrontation, he could probably unleash the Tiger Claw Hand with power no less than the Iron Wire Fist."

"Furthermore, Tai He's lower body is unstable, making it impossible for him to unleash the full power of the Iron Wire Fist." At this moment, Huai Tianpei also spoke up:

"I noticed this flaw in him before. Although he excels in powerful and heavy moves, and his Originium Arts are of the earth and stone type, his lower body training is not up to par... It's probably because of his advantage in Originium Arts that he has neglected this aspect of training."

The Earth and Originium Arts are inherently connected to the earth. In addition, Tai He is a member of the Forte, and there are not many races that can kick their own feet. Combined with his Originium Arts, there are very few experts who can shake Tai He.

However, Tai He's weakness, which he could have compensated for, was now exposed in the duel with the Rat King. Facing the Rat King, a master of internal strength, Tai He used Iron Wire Fist to deal with him, but found that the Rat King's strength was greater than he had expected. Not only was the strength fierce, but the speed was also much faster!

Although Tai He's Iron Wire Fist was powerful and heavy, it couldn't keep up with the speed of the Rat King's Tiger Claw Hand. After a few rounds, Taihe was scratched hard twice in the chest by the Rat King's claws.

Tai He took several steps back, looking at the blood seeping from his chest. His posture became more solemn, but his eyes still flickered with surprise and confusion as he looked at the Rat King.

"Was it really necessary to go this far?" Tai He's eyes conveyed this message, but the Rat King only gave a ferocious smile and charged forward again.

Seeing the Rat King attack, Tai He dared not hold back any longer, and the fight between the two became even more intense than before. In no time, the small clothing store was utterly destroyed by the aftershocks of their battle.

Seeing that Tai He was serious, the Rat King began to look for Tai He's weaknesses, frequently attacking Tai He's lower body. He even found an opening and kicked Tai He hard in the lower body!

"Bang!"
