Chapter 120: Chapter 109: Paving the Way for All Martial Artists in the World
On April 1st, Wu Li arrived in Qi City by plane.
After disembarking, he headed straight to the Yan Family Yong Chun Martial Arts Hall. Upon arrival, the hall was conducting a class with three instructors and eight students practicing on wooden dummies.
"Brother Xue," Wu Li recognized Xue Bai, who had once visited him at the hotel, at a glance.
Xue Bai, dressed in a black Training Suit and looking serious, turned his head upon hearing Wu Li’s voice and his face immediately lit up with surprise.
"Wu Li? What brings you here?" he quickly approached him.
Xue Bai’s greeting made everyone else turn to look toward the entrance, spotting Wu Li.
"It’s Wu Li!"
"Wow, Wu Li is here!"
Given Wu Li’s current fame in the country, it could be said that almost everyone who practiced Traditional Martial Arts knew him.
"Brother Xue," Wu Li greeted with a smile, clasping his hands together.
Xue Bai returned the gesture, "Come in, please."
As Wu Li approached, the few people inside the hall stopped their activities to gaze at him.
Previously, Wu Li had openly competed against Ren Donglai, eventually knocking him down completely with the Yong Chun Fist style Hiragana Punch, and then declared in front of everyone that his Yong Chun was taught by Yan Baili from the Yan Family Martial Arts Hall. This not only redeemed the face Yan Family Martial Arts Hall had lost due to Ren Donglai challenging them but also elevated its status among all Martial Arts Halls in Qi City as Wu Li’s fame continued to grow.
If it weren’t for the fact there were already two Bo Yuan Martial Arts Halls in Qi City, the number of people coming to learn at Yan Family Martial Arts Hall would probably be several times higher.
Nearly every student who came to Yan Family Martial Arts Hall had heard about Wu Li from their instructors or fellow students, especially about his use of Yong Chun Fist on the stage—the topic had been discussed countless times. Thus, everyone present had long admired Wu Li.
"Brother Wu!" someone shouted first, followed by everyone else joining in.
"Brother Wu!"
"Hello, Brother!"
Since Wu Li had previously admitted his Yong Chun came from Yan Baili, didn’t that make him a senior brother to all those present?
"Hello, junior brothers," Wu Li responded with a smile, also clasping his hands, which made everyone beam with pride.
"All right, continue practicing," Xue Bai called out, leading Wu Li to the resting area.
"Brother Wu, what brings you here?" Xue Bai asked as he sat Wu Li down in the resting area and poured him a glass of water.
Wu Li accepted the water glass, thanked him and spoke, "I actually came to seek advice from Master Yan, how is he these days?"
Xue Bai smiled and said, "After you defeated Ren Donglai, Master’s heart knot loosened a lot. He reopened the hall. With your increasing fame, Master often mentions you; he would be very pleased to see you."
Wu Li: "Is Master Yan at home now?"
Xue Bai: "He’s at home. Master usually comes to the hall to teach in the afternoon."
Wu Li: "How about I come back in the afternoon?"
Xue Bai waved his hand hastily, "Don’t do that; Master would scold me if he found out. I’ll take you to him right now."
Xue Bai informed the other two junior brothers and then left the Martial Arts Hall with Wu Li, driving to the residential area where Yan Baili lived, then went up the stairs and knocked on the door.
Soon, the door opened.
"Master, look who’s here," Xue Bai said with a smile to the opening door’s Yan Baili.
"Master Yan," Wu Li clasped his hands toward the elder.
Yan Baili was initially startled but then smiled, "Wu Li! Come in, come in."
"Ha ha, I’ve been hoping everyday to see you again, and here you are."
Yan Baili, visibly very happy, led Wu Li inside.
"Sit down, Xue Bai, go pour some drinks and prepare a couple of side dishes; I want to have a good drink today," Yan Baili instructed.
"Okay." Seeing how happy his master was, Xue Bai was also joyful, turning to enter the kitchen.
Soon, he brought out two cups filled with alcohol in front of Wu Li and Yan Baili, which was a medicinal liqueur brewed by Yan Baili himself, then returned to the kitchen to prepare side dishes.
"Here, Wu Li, I toast to you," Yan Baili said, lifting his cup with both hands.
Wu Li quickly raised his cup, "Master Yan, you are too polite; it should be the junior toasting you."
Yan Baili, with a serious expression, shook his head, "This cup is for the deeds you have done!"
After saying that, he took a big gulp of his drink.
Wu Li also took a sip and set down his cup.
"You fought wonderfully at the Extreme Martial Arts Tournament! I watched every match."
With the first drink, Yan Baili became more talkative, starting to recount Wu Li’s achievements with nothing but praise.
By the time Xue Bai brought the side dishes to the table, the two had almost finished their drinks.
"Master, drink slower," Xue Bai advised.
Yan Baili waved his hand dismissively, "It’s fine, I’m happy today, top off the drinks."
Seeing this, Wu Li hurriedly spoke, "Master Yan, actually, I came today because there’s something I want to ask your advice on."
Yan Baili: "Oh?"
Wu Li: "I wanted to ask if you know or are acquainted with any other experts in Practicing Traditional Martial Arts?"
"Experts in Practicing Traditional Martial Arts?" Yan Baili frowned and thought a moment, "My Yong Chun comes from Ruan Qishan, and my master was a Chinese Vietnamese who later returned to the country to pass his Yong Chun to me, which is a direct transmission. I know I have martial uncles and grandmasters, but they are all in Vietnam, and I have never met them, so among my fellow disciples, I don’t know any experts."
Wu Li nodded; Ruan Qishan was a grandmaster of Yong Chun, co-recognized as one of the "Yong Chun Three Heroes," alongside Yip Man and Yao Cai. He was one of the founders of modern Yong Chun, whose students were not only native but also spread overseas. His brother, Ruan Jiyun, had been invited to Vietnam to serve as the head instructor for the South Pan Shun Chinese Alliance, establishing their lineage’s Yong Chun Fist as quite famous there.
