What Ling Yi didn't notice was that the moment he clashed with Ip Man, his acting skills began to skyrocket.
131%, 132%, 133%...
Both fighters relied on speed and close-quarters combat.
Those nearby could no longer even see the speed at which the two men threw their punches.
This Rapid Speed, Gale -like attack stunned everyone.
"Bang! Bang!"
At one point, their fists collided, then they both stepped back, going from motionless to still, and entered a standoff once more.
Ip Man's expression became extremely solemn. Although the two had fought to a draw, it was precisely because of this draw that Ip Man found it unbelievable.
The opponent's Wing Chun skills were in no way inferior to his own!
"Hoo!" Ip Man took a deep breath, his eyes flashing with a sharp light; he was about to get serious.
This time, Ip Man took the initiative and used An Jin, followed by another, and the continuous barrage of punches actually produced a series of sonic booms.
Facing Ip Man's attack, Ling Yi remained unfazed. His attributes were higher than Ip Man's, and he was least afraid of head-on clashes. He also unleashed his An Jin, and their fists collided.
"Bang bang bang!"
After clashing more than ten times, Ip Man immediately realized the problem: his punching power was actually at a disadvantage.
He immediately changed his strategy and stopped fighting head-on.
The audience was completely silent; the thrill of the Combat had even made them forget to breathe.
The number of comments in the live stream decreased significantly at that moment.
Such a duel between strong individuals rarely occurs in the performances of actors.
After all, most actors are ordinary people, and most of the time they are just playing their acting skills, trying their best to disguise themselves and not expose themselves.
More often than not, the actors Central City the scenes tend to be somewhat cowardly, with little interaction and little trouble-making.
But Ling Yi clearly different from the other actors. He extorted money from the NPC at the beginning, and now he's even taking on apprentices in a high-profile manner, and he even had such a spectacular Combat with the NPC.
The viewers in the live stream had only one feeling at that moment: awesome!
At this moment, among the 27 live streaming rooms, Ling Yi's live streaming room has become the most popular.
As the Combat continued, Ip Man discovered something terrifying: Ling Yi was growing stronger with each fight.
Ling Yi's speed increased, his strength grew, and his Wing Chun became more and more proficient and natural.
Ip Man is now clearly being suppressed by Ling Yi.
Ling Yi grew more and more excited and exhilarated as the fight progressed. At this moment, his Qi and Blood and qi were surging throughout his body, as if he were undergoing some kind of transformation.
"Bang!" The two exchanged punches again.
This time, Ling Yi remained completely still, while Ip Man slid several meters across the ground before regaining his footing.
The pain from his fist made Ip Man gasp inwardly; he knew he had already lost.
"Not enough, Hung Chun-nam. Stop watching and get involved. I want to take on two of you."
Hung Chun-nam, watching from afar, was already itching to watch; he hadn't seen such a duel between masters in a long time.
He was also a martial arts fanatic, and he was particularly eager to hunt down masters.
"Wouldn't it be unfair for us to join forces?" Hung Chun-nam said to Ling Yi as he walked over to Ip Man.
"How about we call it quits?" Ip Man didn't want to fight anymore; he wasn't used to teaming up with others.
Winning or losing wouldn't look good either; Ip Man was a man who cared about his reputation.
"That's not up to you, haha!" Ling Yi suddenly rushed towards the two of them, giving them no time to react, punching Hung Chun-nam and kicking Ip Man.
"Good lad!" Hung Chun-nam took Ling Yi's punch head-on, and almost failed to catch it.
Ip Man, on the other hand, used the opponent's force against them, and did not dare to take the blow head-on.
Ip Man and Hung Chun-nam were also getting angry. If they didn't teach this kid a lesson today, they would both become a laughing stock.
A fierce battle erupted between the three in an instant.
Hung Chun-nam's Hung Kuen style is characterized by its powerful and expansive movements, with each punch carrying a Berserk force.
Even when he was fighting Ling Yi head-on, he was not at a disadvantage in the slightest.
Ip Man initially held back somewhat, after all, it was two against one, which conflicted with his previous principles.
But as time went on, Ip Man discovered that even when he and Hung Chun-nam joined forces, they were still evenly matched.
Gradually, all three of them got into the zone.
This battle was truly spectacular, giving everyone's adrenaline a shot.
I'm watching the live stream on my knees!
[Same kneeling +1!]
[This is so damn exciting! This is exactly what an actor should be doing! I'm a fan of 9527 now!]
[It's truly shocking that a father would open the door for such a shocked son; it's utterly astonishing.]
[This 9527 must be a master in the real world!]
[Hopefully this 9527 project doesn't fail; I won't even look at Role-Playing Space without 9527 in the future!]
[This is too high-profile, isn't it?]
[Don't forget 9527's identity; he's a beggar with a very high degree of freedom. He can easily make up an excuse to get away with it.]
Yes, being a beggar has a significant advantage.
[Other actors have clearly defined roles, and they could easily be identified as imposters if they weren't careful, but 9527 didn't have this worry.]
[So it turns out that higher status isn't always better. I used to think that the higher a horned cesium's status, the greater its gains.]
[That's not entirely true. The higher the status, the more difficult it is to portray. After all, the ratings for the Protagonist and supporting characters are vastly different. If you complete the game, the main character's rating will be much higher.]
[Damn it, what Protagonist or supporting character? I feel like 9527 is the Protagonist. When it comes to stealing the spotlight, who can beat 9527?]
[If you clear the level, you'll definitely get a B grade or higher, or even better!]
Ten minutes later, Hung Chun-nam suffered an asthma attack. The Gao Qiang of the Combat had put too much strain on his body and triggered his chronic illness.
Hung Chun-nam had no choice but to withdraw from the Combat. With Hung Chun-nam gone, Ip Man was even less able to hold on on his own.
The Combat between the three thus came to an end.
" The Yangtze River generation surpasses the older generation, young man, you're amazing!" Hung Chun-nam gave a thumbs up and said sincerely.
"Everyone else opening a martial arts school in Hong Kong has to follow the rules, but as for you, do whatever you want!"
At this point Ip Man asked again, "Is your name really Ip Man?"
"Yes!"
"Then where did you get your Wing Chun from?"
"You taught me!"
Ip Man was a little confused; he didn't remember ever taking on any disciples.
"To be precise, I learned it by secretly when I was in Foshan."
"This..." Ip Man instinctively didn't believe it.
When he was practicing martial arts in Foshan, he certainly didn't hide it from anyone. He even often sparred with others at home using Wing Chun, so it's normal that some of his techniques were learned by others.
But Ling Yi has learned it too thoroughly! Clearly, he has grasped the essence of Ling Yi Wing Chun, which is not something you can learn just by looking at it a couple of times.
"I once met a the Final Master surnamed Chen in Jingang, and he gave me some pointers."
" The Final Master surnamed Chen? What's his name?" Ip Man's brows relaxed a little. Jingang was also a martial arts hub, and one of the places where the Northern and Southern schools of martial arts met. Ip Man wouldn't be surprised if someone in Jingang knew Wing Chun.
"At that time, he was being hunted down by the local warlord's men, and since my encounter with him was purely accidental, I didn't reveal my full name."
Ip Man nodded and asked no further questions.
Knowing this was enough for him. Besides, Ling Yi's Wing Chun was indeed powerful, Ip Man instinctively believed Ling Yi's words.
Little did they know, Ling Yi was spouting complete nonsense, and in fact, it was nonsense supported by solid evidence.
If this matter were investigated thoroughly, some things could indeed be found, but getting to the specifics would be very difficult.
Of course, this is also thanks to his identity as a beggar. If he were playing any other role, Ling Yi would naturally not dare to do this.
"So, you two are indeed both named Ip Man?" Hung Chun-nam, having taken two pills he carried with him and feeling better, asked with a smile.
"Hehe, I never expected such a coincidence in this world," Ip Man chuckled.
"I just didn't expect Master Ye to come to Hong Kong as well. This is truly a coincidence," Ling Yi said with a smile.
"We've become acquainted through this unexpected encounter. If you don't mind, why don't you come to my home, and I, Hong, will show you some hospitality!"
Ling Yi naturally had no objections. Hung Chun-nam was a local bigwig, and it wouldn't hurt to build a good relationship with him. After all, Ling Yi was planning something big, and having Hung Chun-nam's help would make things much easier.
Ip Man hesitated.
His wife is still starving at home.
Seeing Ip Man's expression, Hung Chun-nam felt a little displeased. He was about to say something when Ling Yi spoke first.
"Master Ye, is there some difficulty?" Ling Yi asked.
Ip Man a wry smile and said, "I'm sorry to have made you both laugh. I have a pregnant wife at home waiting for me to go back and take care of her. I'm truly sorry."
"Master Hong, since that's the case, why don't we go to Master Ye's house?"
After thinking about it, Hung Chun-nam did not refuse.
Ip Man smiled awkwardly again, wanting to refuse, since there was absolutely West City left to eat at home. What could he possibly offer as a guest?
He hadn't eaten two meals, and his plan to take on apprentices today had fallen through. He didn't know what to do next.
But he simply couldn't bring himself to refuse at that moment.
I had no choice but to grit my teeth and head home.
Ling Yi deliberately lagged behind a few steps and quietly slipped the money bag containing one hundred and twenty-six silver dollars into Ip Man's hand.
Ip Man was taken aback at first, and after feeling the object in his hand, he was overwhelmed with mixed feelings.
He clasped his hands in a fist and bowed to Ling Yi, as if to say something, but Ling Yi waved his hand away.
Ip Man knew he couldn't refuse this kind offer; he did need the money right now and could only express his gratitude later.
With money, Ip Man felt more confident, and his condition improved considerably.
He took the two of them home.
Ip Man's residence was far inferior to Ling Yi's.
It was just a wooden shed built on the rooftop, barely enough to provide shelter from the wind and rain.
There was only one bed, one table, and three chairs in the house, one of which had a broken leg and was propped up with bricks.
They were truly destitute.
Ip Man's wife, Cheung Wing-sing, was mending clothes; her complexion was somewhat sallow, and her lips were chapped.
There was a pot of water on the table. When Ip Man and his two companions came in, they happened to see Cheung Wing-sing drinking a large bowl of water, trying to fill his stomach with water.
Seeing this, Ip Man felt an overwhelming sense of guilt, but he couldn't show it in front of others.
He forced a smile and said, "This is my wife, Cheung Wing-sing..."
