Chapter 211: Chapter 189 Miyagi Chosin Learns Our Fist Method

"I don’t like this score."

Upon hearing this response, Danny was stunned, and the others didn’t quite understand what he meant. They didn’t know the significance of 250 in Hua Country, but that did not prevent them from sensing the strong self-confidence in Wu Li’s answer:

Whether it’s a full score or not isn’t important, what’s important is that I like it this way.

"666666, I’m stunned."

"I originally thought Wu Li getting a full score was already impressive, but I didn’t expect there to be something even more impressive!"

"When it comes to showing off, I only recognize Master Wu!"

"I’m Wu Li, the ’Li’ that doesn’t listen to reason!"

...

The live stream also exploded; by this time, the number of people in the live stream had surpassed 200,000, though the growth rate began to slow down.

There was no helping it. In the United States, due to the time difference, it was already late night back home, and the viewership for live streaming was much lower than at other times. Those still watching the "Seeking Martial Arts" show at this time were hardcore fans.

"Tell everyone your name," Danny said, handing the microphone to Wu Li.

"Wu Li, from Hua Country."

In fact, there was no need for him to introduce himself, as most people here had already remembered Wu Li from the promotional videos early on. After all, TUF was promoting the "strongest man in Southeast Asia!" This title immediately caused a lot of discomfort for many people...

You’re already the strongest in Southeast Asia, yet you’re still participating in the selection?

However, at this moment, Wu Li had only needed one minute to win over most of the people present, and he believed that when this episode of TUF was broadcast, it would also win over many American viewers.

"You can go upstairs now," Danny told Wu Li.

Wu Li nodded and walked upstairs, followed by the interpreter and the staff of the "Seeking Martial Arts" show.

Upon reaching the second floor, the staff guided Wu Li to the relaxation area, where Xiaoze Wutian was already sitting.

Wu Li glanced at him and activated the system detection:

Gangrou Style Karate (Master Level), Judo (Master Level), Muay Thai (Master Level)

Overall Score: A (86%)

"19 years old, a martial artist at master level, truly a genius," Wu Li thought to himself.

Karate in Japan originated from Tang Hand in Hua Country. After being introduced to Japan, it evolved into Karate by incorporating the local traditional martial arts.

In fact, Karate faces similar issues as the traditional martial arts of Hua Country, with many schools being lost over time and many techniques and competition formats no longer being suitable for modern arena competitions.

However, Karate has done better than Hua Country’s traditional martial arts in terms of inheritance and promotion, whether in terms of recognition, audience, or commercial value.

In fact, Karate is divided into traditional and modern. Traditional Karate emphasizes "stopping at the touch," meaning once a hit is made, the referee immediately separates the opponents. This fighting style is actually derived from actual combat, as real fights don’t involve as much exchange of blows, often being decided by a single strike determining life or death.

However, just like the traditional martial arts of Hua Country, traditional Karate is no longer suitable for arena competitions, giving rise to modern Karate, represented by Kyokushin Karate.

Interestingly, while most people in Japan now practice modern styles like Kyokushin Karate, very few look down upon or mock their traditional schools, even though many practitioners of traditional styles may not be able to compete in the ring. Most Japanese hold respect for their traditional schools.

In this respect, Hua Country is quite different...

If traditional Karate is Japan’s traditional martial arts, then Kyokushin Karate is Japan’s Sandboxing, very practical in arena competitions.

Xiaoze Wutian practices Gangrou Style, which belongs to traditional Karate. Being able to reach master level is as rare as Wu Li mastering Xingyi Fist to master level.

Seeing Wu Li watching him, Xiaoze Wutian also looked at Wu Li, nodded in greeting, and smiled very friendly.

Wu Li sat on an independent sofa not far from Xiaoze Wutian, looking at the television screen in front of him.

On the screen, the workers downstairs were urgently repairing the testing equipment.

With no one challenging at the moment and things slightly dull, Wu Li turned to look at a nearby camera, signaling to Chen Gang that they could interact with the audience.

Chen Gang looked at the comments on the tablet then raised his head to glance at Xiaoze Wutian not far away, hesitated for a moment, and said softly, "Netizens want you to evaluate Xiaoze Wutian."

"Ah."

Commenting in front of someone else, was this relying on them not understanding Chinese?

Wu Li thought for a moment and said, "The opponent practices Gangrou Style Karate. Its founder, Miyagi Chosin, went to Fujian Province in our country at the age of 18 to study our traditional martial arts, mainly learning the White Crane Fist from Southern Shaolin. The name of his school originated from the secret manual ’Martial Arts Record’ passed down from the White Crane Sect, which features the ’Method of Soft and Hard Swallowing,’ hence the name Gangrou Style."

"From the opponent’s moves just now, with inch fist and inch leg showing hints of Southern Fist, along with muscle bone power and a balance of soft and hard, it’s clear that Gangrou Style has been mastered to a high level. Having such prowess at 19 truly makes him worthy of the term ’genius.’"

The comment section responded quickly:

"Such high praise, can he beat you?"

"Should be asking, how many moves will it take for Wu Li to take down the opponent?"

"Ha ha, I only know that this once-in-five-hundred-years fighting genius just failed to get a perfect score, while Wu Li broke the testing machine (dog head)."

...

Chen Gang looked at the comments, thought for a moment, and then asked, "The internet users want to know, if you fought with him, what would be your chances of winning?"

Wu Li laughed and said, "We will probably fight in the future, and then you’ll all know."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiaoze Wutian seemed to notice something, turned his head to look over, and spoke a few words in Japanese.

"Uh, what did he say?" Wu Li turned his head to look at the interpreter next to him.

The interpreter spread his hands, "I don’t speak Japanese."

"Then ask him in English."

So, the interpreter asked Xiaoze Wutian in English what he had just said.

Xiaoze Wutian looked at Wu Li and repeated it in English.

"He said, he seems to have heard you mention the mental method of the Gangrou Style."

"Method of Soft and Hard Swallowing?" Wu Li said uncertainly.

"Probably." The interpreter was also uncertain, mainly not knowing how to translate those words into English.

Although Xiaoze Wutian didn’t understand Chinese, he knew the pronunciation of the words "Method of Soft and Hard Swallowing."

"Method of Soft and Hard Swallowing, adapt to changes spontaneously."

Xiaoze Wutian said it word by word in stiff Chinese.

Wu Li nodded, "Right, I just mentioned that saying from the White Crane Sect."

Upon hearing the translation, Xiaoze Wutian laughed.

"These words are widely known because of our Gangrou Style founder, Miyagi Chosin."

Upon hearing this, Wu Li impassively said, "Miyagi Chosin created the Gangrou Style after he learned our fist techniques."

Xiaoze Wutian squinted his eyes, "Miyagi Chosin was the first Karate master in our country’s history. With his qualifications, even relying on himself, he could have created the Gangrou Style!"

Wu Li remained calm, "Miyagi Chosin created the Gangrou Style after he learned our fist techniques."

Xiaoze Wutian ground his teeth, "Miyagi Chosin was the first to be invited overseas to teach Karate, spreading the philosophy of Gangrou Style around the whole world, it has nothing to do with you!"

Wu Li: "Miyagi Chosin created the Gangrou Style after he learned our fist techniques."

Xiaoze Wutian: "..."

He was now thoroughly enraged, staring daggers at Wu Li, and sarcastically said, "I find that you people from Hua Country always cling to the past, whenever you see someone else had a little success, you try to claim a connection, as if that proves your superiority, I think it’s ridiculous."

Upon hearing the translation, Wu Li scoffed, "In Hua Country, we value recognizing our ancestors and origins, meaning we must clearly understand where we come from, be grateful, not forget our roots, or else, what’s the difference between us and animals?"

"As for trying to claim a connection, you’re thinking too much. Even if a son doesn’t recognize his father, the relationship is there, clear and obvious. There’s no need for schemes; a father is a father, and a son is a son."

As the interpreter translated Wu Li’s words, Xiaoze Wutian’s eyes blazed with fury, and he angrily said, "Our Gangrou Style indeed borrowed from your Martial Arts, but it surpasses your fist techniques. Where do you get your sense of superiority?"

Wu Li nodded, "Strong or not, can you prove it just by saying? Where does your confidence come from? Just because you are a once-in-five-hundred-years combat genius? Gangrou Style didn’t even exist five hundred years ago."

Xiaoze Wutian clenched his fist, a murderous look on his face, "Just last night, I defeated one of your Chinese boxers who practices your Southern Fist. He was well-known locally here in New York, but in the end, he was lying on the ground like a dog! And this is your so-called strong Hua Country Martial Arts?"

Wu Li nodded, "Good, you’ve just given dad another reason to teach his son a lesson."

"Damn it!"

Enraged by his words, Xiaoze Wutian suddenly burst up from the couch and charged at Wu Li like a leopard.

Wu Li’s eyes turned icy. Not waiting for his opponent to come closer, and concerned about accidentally hurting Chen Gang and others nearby, he arched his back, his spine snapping up like a dragon, as if he had a launcher under him, he propelled off the couch.

Swish!

Xiaoze Wutian’s sweeping low kick came with a whooshing sound towards the front, but Wu Li stepped forward, his right leg thrusting forward like a plow.

Bang!

Xiaoze Wutian’s sweeping leg hit Wu Li’s shin. Wu Li remained unmoved, a Splitting Fist already chopping towards his opponent’s face.

Xiaoze Wutian slightly leaned back, his right leg not retracting but slightly bouncing up, continuing to push hard forward, thrusting towards Wu Li’s abdomen.

Wu Li sidestepped, seemingly anticipating his opponent’s move, his right fist accelerated chopping down, now directly aiming for his opponent’s chest as he leaned back.

"STOP!"

At that moment, a door from a room nearby opened, and two people rushed out, yelling at Wu Li and Xiaoze Wutian who were engaged in combat.
