Chapter 209: Chapter 209: Then Let Me Take It Back

All the spectators present, upon hearing Zuo Qianqiu’s words, felt an unspeakable frustration but were helpless to do anything about it.

Some practiced martial arts, others were Martial Arts aficionados; more or less all belonged to the Inland Martial Arts Circle.

Now that Inland Martial Arts had been belittled as worthless by a foreign master, their hearts naturally could not bear it.

Tang Yuanshan and others were also burning with rage, eager to rush onto the stage and fight this arrogant and conceited man.

But even Li Chengfeng had been defeated by Zuo Qianqiu. If they went up, it would be nothing more than a death wish.

At this moment, Tang Yuanshan’s gaze fell on Chen Fan.

If there was anyone present who might have a chance to defeat Zuo Qianqiu, it was certainly Chen Fan.

Chen Fan, catching Tang Yuanshan’s look, showed a smile, "Don’t worry, I’m also a part of the Inland Martial Arts, this man is extremely arrogant, I will reclaim some face for everyone."

Tang Yuanshan immediately bowed to Chen Fan, "Mr. Chen, your righteousness is admirable!"

Sun Xiaotian and Huo Liancheng also cast respectful looks toward Chen Fan.

Seeing this, Li Chengfeng became visibly anxious, "Chen Fan, what are you doing? Don’t do anything foolish!"

Chen Fan said indifferently, "Please rest assured, senior. The dignity of Inland Martial Arts, I shall take it back."

After speaking, he walked towards the stage.

Li Chengfeng, in his anxiety, coughed violently, shouting to Tang Yuanshan and the others, "What are you standing there for, hurry up and stop him! Haven’t you all seen how powerful this Zuo Qianqiu is?"

The three people like Tang Yuanshan looked at each other and smiled.

Tang Yuanshan said, "Li, rest assured for the moment, Chen Fan may not be inferior to this Zuo Qianqiu."

Chen Fan arrived on the stage.

Zuo Qianqiu looked at this young man who had suddenly appeared, his eyes slightly wide in surprise, "What are you doing?"

Chen Fan replied, "Didn’t you ask for the first place winner of the Martial Arts Tournament? That’s me."

Zuo Qianqiu sized up Chen Fan a few times, then suddenly burst into loud laughter, "Have you really run out of people in Inland Martial Arts? A green youth can take first place, don’t tell me you’re running a kitten’s competition?"

The entire audience, upon seeing Chen Fan take the stage, were also full of surprise.

"How did that Chen Fan get up there? Is he not afraid of death?"

"Although he’s the first place winner of this Martial Arts Tournament, it was only because others conceded, allowing him his turn. Surely he doesn’t really think he’s a great master, does he?"

...

Xiao Qiang curled his lips, "This guy really has nerves of steel, any fool could see how terrifying this foreign master is from the fight just now, yet he still has the guts to go up, I don’t know whether to say he’s courageous or brainless."

Song Qian clenched her fists anxiously.

Chen Fan, facing Zuo Qianqiu, then flicked his finger, and a streak of Spiritual Power shot out, striking rapidly at Zuo Qianqiu’s chest.

Zuo Qianqiu’s clothes instantly tore open a large hole, but his skin remained completely unharmed.

"Your Physical Body is so strong, interesting," Chen Fan said, a smile appearing on his face.

The cold smile on Zuo Qianqiu’s face came to an abrupt halt, and his gaze turned solemn.

Chen Fan’s move just now, although not very powerful, had caught him off guard.

"This kid is not simple!"

Zuo Qianqiu narrowed his eyes as he sized up Chen Fan, coldly saying, "Since you’re courting death, don’t blame me for not showing any mercy!"

His figure vanished from the spot instantaneously.

The next second, a figure appeared behind Chen Fan, kicking toward the back of Chen Fan’s head.

"Hmph, seems I overestimated you," Zuo Qianqiu said, looking at Chen Fan, who hadn’t moved from his spot, guessing that he might not have reacted in time, a cold smile involuntarily appeared on his face.

"With this kick, you’ll undoubtedly die!"

His foot quickly reached the back of Chen Fan’s head, but just when he thought Chen Fan’s head would be kicked to pieces, his foot passed right through Chen Fan’s "head."

"Afterimage?" Zuo Qianqiu’s face changed instantly.

He landed on the ground in shock and, looking back, realized that Chen Fan had already disappeared.

"Has this kid’s speed become so fast that I can’t even catch a glimpse of him?"

Just then, a voice sounded out from behind him, "Is it a surprise?"

Zuo Qianqiu’s hairs stood on end as he ferociously swung a punch behind him.

Chen Fan grasped his wrist, felt the strength of his physical body, and said indifferently, "Is this the Copper Skin and Iron Bones? The intensity is quite good, but it still falls short compared to my Nine Yang Divine Body."

After speaking, he circulated the Strength of the Dragon Elephant, his body swelled, and with a forceful shake, he flung Zuo Qianqiu away.

Zuo Qianqiu hurriedly stabilized his form, managing to stop at the edge of the arena.

The entire audience was wearing expressions of astonishment.

"This guy seems... even more formidable than the previous one!"

Xiao Qiang’s eyes were glued to Chen Fan’s figure as he shouted in disbelief, "How is that possible!"

Song Qian, however, had a smile on her face, "I knew Chen Fan must be confident to step up there!"

Xiao Qiang turned to glance at Song Qian and, for some reason, a hint of unease crept into his heart.

Elsewhere, Li Chengfeng’s expression turned to one of amazement as he saw Chen Fan’s skills.

He looked at the smiling Tang Yuanshan and the other two, muttering to himself, "Could it be that their deliberate losses were not because they were bribed by Chen Fan?"

Zuo Qianqiu focused intently on Chen Fan, no longer daring to underestimate him because of his age.

"You’re stronger than the person just now, barely a match for me. I will go all out now and hope you won’t disappoint me!"

No sooner had he spoken than his figure burst towards Chen Fan.

Chen Fan was not negligent, got into a fighting stance, and the two immediately clashed.

This time, Chen Fan felt a peculiar strength within Zuo Qianqiu’s attacks, which increased his explosive force by several times, truly terrifying.

"What kind of power is this?" Chen Fan asked.

Zuo Qianqiu revealed a smug expression, "Although I have yet to break through to the eighth level of the Transformation Realm, I have already grasped a trace of the True Meaning of Martial Arts. Your physical body may be stronger than mine, but in front of the True Meaning of Martial Arts, it is insignificant!"

Chen Fan closely felt the power within Zuo Qianqiu’s attacks.

After dozens of moves, he finally understood what this so-called True Meaning of Martial Arts was all about.

"The Martial Arts discipline indeed has some depth. With the improvement of one’s strength, one can already begin to sense the power of heaven and earth."

He slightly curved the corners of his mouth, "However, this minor sense is far too trivial, hardly even entry-level, but merely the most rudimentary use of the power of heaven and earth."

As a cultivator, Chen Fan naturally understood what the power of heaven and earth entailed. The spells he cast were one form of application of this power.

However, Spells and Martial Arts are fundamentally different. Spells involve leveraging power, borrowing the power of heaven and earth for one’s own use to exert force, while the True Meaning of Martial Arts involves martial artists absorbing the power of heaven and earth to enhance their own strength.

Chen Fan did not understand how to absorb the power of heaven and earth, nor did he need to. After all, he followed the orthodox path of cultivators and did not need to enhance his own strength through other means like martial artists did.

He threw a punch directly at Zuo Qianqiu.

Azure Dragon Emerges from the Water!

Upon seeing this, Zuo Qianqiu quickly gathered all his strength to resist.

Chen Fan gave him no chance to catch his breath, immediately following up with the second style.

Swallow Returns in the Morning Sun!

Their moves collided, and the enormous disturbance spread, literally flipping over the people in the front rows of the spectator stands.

Zuo Qianqiu retreated ten steps, frowning deeply as he looked at Chen Fan, a hint of wariness appearing in his eyes.

Chen Fan raised an eyebrow, "To be able to take these two moves of mine, it seems that martial artists who have grasped the True Meaning of Martial Arts are indeed extraordinary."

He was about to make another move.

But he saw Zuo Qianqiu suddenly burst into loud laughter, pulling out a dagger from his waist that emitted a special aura.

"Kid, you are very strong. It seems I have no choice but to use this trump card to beat you!"
