Chapter 346: Chapter 316 Wu Li Yuan Tianxia

"Martial arts have a thousand-year history, how many have vanished into smoke and mist? What makes the Wu Family Spear immune to extinction?"

"Human efforts have their limits. Martial arts have stagnated for a thousand years..."

"This fist technique was taught to me by the boss, he had me practice it every day..."

"The fist is faster than the spear within seven steps? Today, I’ll give you a chance to prove it again, do you dare?"

"Today, I’ve come to tell my senior that human efforts have limits, but the path of martial arts is boundless!"

"How splendid it is to fight the infinite with a finite body?"

"If I can’t beat him once more, my kung fu will likely never advance an inch, so I must compete today!"

"Wu Li, this is the Wu Family Spear!... Take the spear!"

"The Wu Family Spear, victorious!"

...

New York, inside a hotel, Wu Li and Chen Gang among others watched the seventh episode of Seeking Martial Arts.

Today was March 2nd. A few days ago, the battle between Wu Li and Feng Lin had effectively brought the seventh episode of Seeking Martial Arts to a close.

The video of Wu Li and Feng Lin’s fight reignited a craze on the internet in Hua Country. Everyone was discussing it, wanting to know why Wu Li had fought with Feng Lin, eager to find out why Sun Yiquan had eventually passed the spear to Wu Li, curious about what had happened between the three of them?

It was a rare occasion, and the viewers watching live were confused about the sequence of events, leading countless netizens to post comments online, hoping for the edited version of the seventh episode of Seeking Martial Arts to be released promptly.

As a result, amidst high anticipation, the edited seventh episode of Seeking Martial Arts was released on Mo Yin in just three days, and on the same day, the Qi City TV Station broadcast it during prime time.

On Mo Yin, the seventh episode of Seeking Martial Arts quickly surpassed one billion clicks, and then Wu Li was again at the top of the trending search list...

The popularity of each episode of Seeking Martial Arts had progressively increased, but the patchy live broadcast of the seventh episode had led to a drop in popularity. Chen Gang and the others were under a lot of pressure, thankfully, with the complete edited version of the seventh episode released, everyone was overjoyed.

Today, Wu Li had a rare moment of leisure, so he watched the seventh episode of Seeking Martial Arts with Chen Gang and the others in the room.

Sun Yiquan’s helplessness, Wu Li’s argument, Feng Lin’s arrogance, Wu Li’s emotional journey, Sun Yiquan’s final change... All these elements were clearly presented through the commentary of the production team, interwoven scenes, and additional interviews, making Wu Li nod in approval.

"Old Chen, good editing," Wu Li said with a laugh as he patted Chen Gang on the shoulder.

Chen Gang also looked relaxed. His phone had been ringing off the hook with calls from the leaders at the station, and his entire Spring Festival hadn’t been great. Now things were looking up with the success of the seventh episode of Seeking Martial Arts; everyone was satisfied: Wu Li, Seeking Martial Arts, still the top domestic flow, and the views for the seventh episode might set a new record!

"We can relax for a while now, but the eighth episode is already being scheduled by the station," Chen Gang said helplessly.

Wu Li nodded, "No rush for the eighth episode. If Li San has a recommendation, we’ll pay a visit. If not, we’ll look for other Chinese boxers."

Chen Gang: "As you arrange."

"Haha," Wu Li laughed.

During their conversation, his phone rang. It was a call from Zheng Yingrong.

Wu Li stood up and walked to the window to answer the call.

"Sixth Master?"

"Wu Li, congratulations on defeating the Double Spear King of the Longhua Association."

...

After exchanging pleasantries, Zheng Yingrong said, "Wu Li, I don’t know when you’re free, how about we meet and talk?"

Wu Li knew Zheng Yingrong must have something in mind, so he said with a smile, "Of course, how about this afternoon?"

Zheng Yingrong: "Good."

The two agreed on a specific time and place and then hung up the call.

"What’s up?" Chen Gang asked from the side.

Wu Li: "Sixth Master from Hongmen Zhiyuan Hall is looking for me, seems like he has something to ask of me."

Chen Gang: "Ask you for something? Is he looking for your help in a boxing match?"

With the capabilities of the Hongmen Zhiyuan Hall, most things could be handled easily. The only situation they would need Wu Li for would likely involve a boxing match.

Wu Li: "We’ll know when we meet."

...

That afternoon, Wu Li met with Zheng Yingrong at a private club owned by Zhiyuan Hall.

After greeting each other, Zheng Yingrong began talking to Wu Li about his victory over Feng Lin.

"Feng Lin is quite well-known in the underworld; your public defeat of him has shocked many people," Zheng Yingrong said with a smile. "I even asked Li San before, whether he thought he could win against Feng Lin. He said he couldn’t be sure."

"Truly, a hero emerges from youth."

Wu Li replied with a smile, "Sixth Master is too kind. My victory was a matter of chance."

Zheng Yingrong waved his hand, "A win is a win. In this Jianghu, only the result matters, not the journey."

Then, with a serious tone, he added, "However, since Feng Lin is an elder of the Longhua Association and holds a high position, now that you’ve publicly defeated him, you’ve essentially made enemies with them. Be careful of possible retaliation."

Wu Li nodded, "Thank you for your warning, Sixth Master."

Zheng Yingrong laughed, "You’re an honored guest of our Hongmen Zhiyuan Hall; if Longhua Association wants to touch you, they’ll have to weigh their options carefully."

Wu Li thanked him with a laugh. From their first meeting, he could sense Zheng Yingrong’s intention to recruit him. Although he had no desire to join Hongmen, it was always beneficial to be on good terms with such an organization.

After chatting for a while longer, Zheng Yingrong started to look troubled, "Actually, this matter should have been brought to you by Li San. But sometimes, well, never mind talking about him."

Wu Li’s gaze shifted, "Sixth Master, is there something you need?"

Zheng Yingrong, "Yesterday, Guandong Association officially sent us a challenge letter, specifically naming Li San for a duel. Their challenger is Xiaoze Wutian."

Wu Li furrowed his brow, recalling the Japanese martial arts prodigy hailed as a once-in-five-hundreds-year talent, "Li San’s injury, it hasn’t fully healed yet, has it?"

Zheng Yingrong sighed, "Right, he can move now, but his injury hasn’t fully healed. The other side has deliberately chosen this time for the challenge."

Wu Li, "Is this battle a must?"

Zheng Yingrong nodded, "We have no choice but to accept!"

Wu Li nodded, "So, you came today to ask me to fight on behalf of Li San?"

Zheng Yingrong looked at Wu Li seriously and said, "I know this is asking a lot. You can make any demand, and as long as Zhiyuan Hall can fulfill it, we will not refuse!"

Wu Li laughed, "If I’m not wrong, Li San must not agree to let me fight for him, right?"

Zheng Yingrong sighed, "Right, he didn’t agree when he heard about it. He’d rather go into battle injured."

Such martial arts competitions often meant life or death. It was precisely because of the deep friendship between Li San and Wu Li that Li San did not want Wu Li to take such a risk for him.

"Sixth Master, I will take on this fight," Wu Li said decisively.

Zheng Yingrong’s face showed a smile, "What do you need?"

Wu Li shook his head, "Sixth Master, Li San and I are friends."

"Ha ha ha ha!" Zheng Yingrong laughed and nodded. He wasn’t surprised, "Good, then I won’t say more. Zhiyuan Hall remembers this favor!"

Wu Li, "Sixth Master, is Li San still in the hospital?"

Zheng Yingrong, "Yes."

Wu Li, "I’ll go see him in a bit."

Zheng Yingrong, "Good, it’s good for the two of you to chat."

...

After leaving the private club, Wu Li headed straight for the private hospital of Zhiyuan Hall.

On the hospital lawn, Wu Li saw Li San practicing Tai Chi.

Li San wasn’t surprised to see Wu Li and sighed lightly, "Sixth Master has been to see you?"

Wu Li nodded, "Yes, he told me about the fight."

Li San sounded somewhat helpless, "My injury is almost healed, actually, I could fight."

Wu Li looked disdainful, "How about we have a bout right now? If you win, I’ll let you fight?"

"Damn!" Li San cursed with a laugh.

But inside, he was touched. Sometimes, even family members might not be willing to take one’s place in a battle that involved life and death, let alone a friend?

Seeing that Li San seemed to want to say something, Wu Li immediately waved his hand, "Don’t say any words of thanks. It’s too sentimental for two grown men."

"Ha ha!" Li San laughed and shook his head.

Wu Li, "I’ve made quite a few enemies myself now. In the future, if I ever get the chance, I might need you to fight for me."

The Yu family from New Country, a bunch of people with interests tied to Hu Shan from Southern Country, the Longhua Association from the United States... Along the way, Wu Li had actually offended quite a few people, not to mention the many businesses he would take away with his worldwide opening of martial arts halls. Indeed, it was very likely that he would face many challenges if anything happened to him.

Taking on Xu Chuan as a student was to cope with such events. However, whether Xu Chuan could reach master level in the future was still an unknown. Thus, knowing a master like Li San and having him willing to fight for him was actually quite important.

Hearing Wu Li speak like this, Li San naturally nodded, "Of course."

Wu Li smiled, "Then that’s settled. Let’s not stand on ceremony with each other."

Li San also smiled and nodded, then said seriously, "That Xiaoze Wutian is truly a genius. During our last exchange, I could vaguely feel he was about to break through. By now, he has likely grasped Fist Intent. Don’t underestimate him."

Wu Li’s expression was slightly smug, "That’s actually quite fortunate. I’ve just had a breakthrough myself."

Only in front of a good friend like Li San could Wu Li openly express the joy in his heart.

Li San was equally happy for Wu Li, "I saw your battle with Feng Lin. That last spear thrust seemed to borrow Elder Sun’s Spear Intent. What was that about?"

Wu Li, impressed by Li San’s perception, held nothing back and shared his understanding of the Spirit Realm.

After listening, Li San fell into deep thought. Wu Li did not disturb him, waiting quietly by his side.

After who knows how long, Li San finally came back to his senses, looking at Wu Li with a touched expression, "In this way, I owe you two favors."

Taking his place in a fight was akin to saving his life.

Solving his doubts and pointing out the direction of his breakthrough was equally a huge favor to any martial artist.

Wu Li shook his head with an indifferent look, as if to suggest it wasn’t worth mentioning.

Li San, "I heard about the Martial Arts Hall you opened, teaching the content of Bone and Muscle Strengthening of Xingyi Fist to the students. Just for that boldness alone, no Chinese boxer in the whole United States can match you!"

He looked at Wu Li, "The words you said in the final personal interview of the seventh episode of Seeking Martial Arts, I was deeply impressed. Maybe many people will think you’re showing off after watching it, but I know you’re sincere."

Wu Li smiled and said nothing.

At the end of the seventh episode of Seeking Martial Arts, Chen Gang had an individual interview with Wu Li. At the end of the interview, Wu Li looked at the camera and shared his two wishes:

"To see Chinese Martial Arts passed down through generations without interruption."

"To wish all martial artists in the world reach the pinnacle of their potential."
