Three days passed by in a hurry. On this morning, Li Shuwen, who was 2.8 meters tall, finished teaching Su Yi the last lesson. He suddenly said with some melancholy: "Good morning, you are extremely enlightened and broad-minded. What is rare is that our master
They have the same tempers and appetites. It's a pity that our fate is limited to these three days."
Su Yi was startled when he heard this and immediately realized that Li Shuwen was leaving.
For a moment, I felt a hundred kinds of feelings in my heart.
To be honest, in the past three days, Su Yi and Li Shuwen had not communicated a single word except about martial arts matters.
Most of the time, Li Shuwen was talking and Su Yi was listening.
This old man, who is nearly seventy years old but still energetic, practiced the moves over and over again as he narrated the story. Although Su Yi could only teach in a cram-like manner due to his injury, he really managed to put everything he had learned in his life into practice.
All the private treasures were passed on to Su Yi.
It even includes several killer moves of Bajiquan, as well as the secrets and application techniques of the big pole.
The so-called trick is not to touch it until it is clear, but to touch it to make it clear.
The most valuable and precious thing was this, but Li Shuwen said it without caring and told Su Yi.
For three days, it seemed that Su Yi had been listening, but in fact, in the stream-of-consciousness teaching space, Su Yi had fought dozens of games with Ip Man using his current Bajiquan and big pole.
Of course, Su Yi never won a game.
Grandmaster Ye Wen, who is in the master stage of martial arts, is so strong that he has no friends.
It is precisely because of this that Su Yi understood Bajiquan at an astonishing speed through listening to lectures and practicing teaching, so that he could draw inferences from one instance and make Li Shuwen also amazed by Su Yi's "talent".
"Master Li, why not..." Su Yi was in a complicated mood and wanted to keep Li Shuwen.
But Li Shuwen smiled and waved his hand and said: "I also want to continue to teach you, but there is really nothing to teach you, except to keep you by my side all year round and take good care of you. But in this way, it will constrain your aura, which will actually
not good."
Su Yi sighed and said: "I will never forget the kindness of passing on my art. No matter what Master Li thinks, I will definitely take the name of your disciple from now on. If I meet any brothers from the same discipline, I will treat them as brothers and show courtesy!"
"That's not necessary. I have many apprentices, many of whom are incompetent, and some of them are traitors. Do you consider them brothers and sisters?" Li Shuwen waved his hand, "Just do what you want. If you encounter incompetent ones, can you help me?"
I also want to thank you for cleaning up the house."
"Okay, I've done everything I need to do, and it's time for me to leave. Recuperate well. As for whether or not I can go on stage...the rematch will be tomorrow. In nine days, the first round will be over. Will your injury be okay by then?
?You have a right idea, think about it yourself. You are still young, are you really in a hurry for this moment?"
Su Yi said slowly: "Master Li's hard work is for my own good. I know it. But I have already made up my mind about going on stage."
Li Shuwen sighed, shook his head and turned away.
"Master Li, it's almost noon, it's not too late to leave after dinner!" Su Yi shouted hurriedly.
Li Shuwen waved his hand without looking back: "There is someone taking care of the food at noon today, so don't worry about it."
Su Yi looked at the old man's leaving figure and smiled brightly.
It would be great if I could be as cool as him when I am old.
After Master Li left, Chen Shi came out.
"How have you gained in these three days?" Chen Shi asked.
"I can't tell you all about the old man's true biography, but I know 50% of it." Su Yi said.
A sincere smile appeared on Chen Shi's face: "That's already a lot, junior brother, this is your opportunity. How many people have asked for advice from famous teachers, but they can't get even a single word, but you let a generation of masters teach you orally for three days. If you tell anyone, I won't be envious.
How many people have been killed?"
After a pause, Chen Shi said doubtfully: "I never had time to ask you. Master Li said he was entrusted by someone to teach you. Do you know who it is? Zheng Shanao? He doesn't have such a big face, does he?"
Gong Baosen's appearance appeared in Su Yi's mind, with a somewhat complicated look on his face.
"I know who it is," he said, "It's not this time he's helping me."
Gong Er taught Su Yi sixty-three moves, except for the hidden flower under the leaf trick. Su Yi had already guessed that this must be Gong Baosen's instruction.
Now Gong Baosen has entrusted Li Shuwen to teach him martial arts. What is this old master thinking in his heart?
In fact, Su Yi could clearly feel that Gong Baosen was alienated and repelled by him.
He even always suspected that Gong Baosen seemed to be sure that Ma San's death had something to do with him.
But if this is the case, why does Gong Baosen spare no effort to enhance his own strength?
Su Yi was also puzzled by this.
"Tomorrow, the Chinese Martial Arts Elite Competition will resume." Chen Shidao, "Liu Haiqing called just now and said that he knew that you must be concerned about the competition. He asked you to rest in peace and recover, and he would have someone send you the daily battle report."
Su Yi nodded, indicating that he understood.
Liu Haiqing told Su Yi on the phone last night about the rematch.
According to Liu Haiqing's idea, it is best to delay him for another ten days or eight days. The later the rematch is, the more beneficial it will be for Su Yi.
But I really can’t put it off any longer.
Several masters from Ma Liang bypassed Gong Baosen and others and put pressure directly from Jinling. Yu Xuezhong compromised on the second day of the suspension.
The rematch was supposed to happen the day before yesterday, but Liu Haiqing delayed it for another three days in the name of investigating the underground party.
Today it was Hu Zhantang who personally asked about this matter, so Liu Haiqing had to relent, and the match will resume tomorrow.
A small martial arts competition can actually "reach the heavens to hear". I have to say that this is a strange thing.
Of course, Su Yi also hopes that the rematch can be delayed later, but since this is the final result, he can only accept it.
For the next period of time, Su Yi has been using the Wing Chun master's stream of consciousness teaching space to engage in actual combat with Ip Man.
He is no longer limited to improving the realm of Wing Chun, because he has completely determined that he is not the kind of person who studies one martial art to the end.
He is a complete utilitarian and a very shameful "adopter" person. Whether it is Wing Chun, Bagua or Baji, he will use whatever moves are powerful or useful.
Whichever trick Ip Man failed to defeat, he would stick to that trick. If Wing Chun couldn't crack it, he would use Bagua. If he couldn't crack it, he would use Baji. If the three techniques didn't work, he would try to piece it together and fuse it, and then try to crack it.
He used this stupid method to defeat Ip Man's martial arts one by one. No matter how strong Ip Man was, he couldn't stand Su Yi doing this.
So on the seventh day, Su Yi defeated Ip Man for the first time.
"Finally, you've made it." In the stream-of-consciousness space, Ye Wen, with a bruised nose and swollen face, said with emotion, "I'm very pleased that you can outshine others..."
"No, no, no, Master Ye, I am cheating and playing dirty. It's still early for me..." Su Yi, who realized what was about to happen, panicked and hurriedly explained.
"The future of Wing Chun depends on you." Ip Man said to himself.
"Master Ye, I'm still far away, don't leave..." Su Yi said and greeted Ye Wen.
If Ip Man is destined to leave, he hopes to be beaten away by himself.
Ip Man, who was exchanged for one million fan points, was burning Su Yi's funding costs every second of his existence.
"Goodbye, my disciple!" Ye Wen smiled and waved his hand, and Su Yi punched him empty.
Wow...
The next moment, the stream of consciousness teaching space shattered and collapsed, completely disappearing.
Su Yi, who returned to reality, tried to enter again, but to no avail.
He regretted a little. He had known that as long as he defeated Ip Man, he would leave the teaching field and the teaching space would collapse. He would deliberately let Ip Wen do anything he said.
The value of one million fans is just gone...
In fact, what he felt sorry for was not the one million fans, but the opportunity he had bought at such a high price, but he did not exploit this opportunity to the extreme.
Without the space for stream-of-consciousness teaching, Su Yi had no chance to practice in practice, and his rate of progress suddenly plummeted.
At this time, the external champion challenge is in full swing. Although there is no "top hot spot" like Su Yi, the popularity of the competition has already increased. Without Su Yi, it is still an event that everyone is paying attention to.
In order to expand the influence of this event, Zhang Zimin even found radio stations in major cities to broadcast and commentate on this event. Major newspapers across the country also reported the progress of this event every day.
Not only that, this event also attracted the attention of foreign media. Some mainstream media in the West reported on this "Oriental High-level Fighting Competition", especially Geng Liangchen, who had won ten consecutive victories.
.
Su Yi's reputation has spread abroad, but the attention it aroused is still not enough to create any waves.
But a British filmmaker glimpsed the business opportunity. After obtaining Zhang Zimin's consent, he decided to record the entire event with a camera and make it into a videotape in post-production for sale to the outside world.
This idea inspired Zhang Zimin, who simply invited a domestic photography company to record the competition so that the competition process could be screened in other cities in the future, so that audiences in other cities could also see the masters' duel.
To be honest, it is actually very difficult to win ten games and only lose one. Of the thousands of participating warriors, more than 90% were eliminated in the first round, and the elimination rate was very high.
And it’s no use just being strong in martial arts. If you want to advance to the second round, sometimes you also need some luck and some strategies.
There are many capable warriors who have won seven, eight, or even nine games in a row, but in the end they were defeated and eliminated miserably.
A large part of the reasons are, firstly, physical problems, and secondly, injuries.
Not everyone is like Su Yi, who can resolve a battle in one turn. Most warriors, unless they are ruthless as soon as they get on stage, use their moves and fight very slowly.
If it weren't for the five-minute time limit, most games would never be finished in half an hour.
In most games, the players have played for five minutes, and the referee finally decides the winner based on the advantages of offense and defense. This method is definitely not fair, so it has caused a lot of controversy.
Because of the time limit, the competition was "unprecedentedly" fierce for traditional martial artists of this era, and it was quite a challenge to their physical strength.
Coupled with such a "fierce" challenge, it is inevitable that you will be unable to control your efforts, so injuries often occur.
There are many warriors with strong strength and great potential who have won seven or eight games in a row just because they don’t know how to protect themselves from being injured. In the end, they have to give up the game due to injury, which is a pity.
Others end up exhausted after fighting and unable to regain their strength. In the end, it is clear that the opponent is not as strong as themselves, and they can only watch the defeat.
Among them was Wan Laisheng, a disciple of Du Xinwu, the hero of the North and South, who was eliminated in this round due to injuries.
Most warriors are "taken away in two waves", lose two games in a row, and then lose the qualification to advance.
For an ordinary warrior, winning one or two games would be enough for him to achieve glory.
The warriors who finally make the cut are those who have overcome many difficulties, are extremely strong, and have excellent luck.
A total of 137 people won ten games, successfully defended the ring, and successfully advanced to the second round.
There were more than 3,000 warriors, and in the end, more than 100 people advanced. This was only the first round, and the elimination rate was quite cruel.
But those who advance will receive a bonus of one thousand oceans, not to mention that just this honor can make warriors flock to it.
After the first round of competition was completed, Yu Xuezhong, Liu Haiqing and other official figures arrived at the scene and personally arranged bonuses for the warriors who were promoted to the second round.
Real money, one thousand oceans per person, no discount!
This level of bonus caused an unprecedented sensation and made many people excited.
The more than one hundred champions who have received awards are extremely proud. Even if they don't win a game in the future, these achievements and gains will be enough to comfort themselves.
One thousand oceans is not a small amount. Because he was worried that such a huge bonus would attract the covetousness of criminals, Yu Xuezhong specially arranged for them to stay in several hotels and sent troops to protect them. To a certain extent, this frightened some people with evil intentions.
.
It is worth mentioning that among the more than 100 people who have advanced, Su Yi's two old rivals are also among them.
One is Su Yi’s second opponent Li Chunnian. This disciple of Tai Chi master Yang Chengpu narrowly lost one game to Su Yi and won ten games in a row. He successfully defended the ring and proved that he was not in vain.
The second one is Ma Liang's apprentice Zhang Songnian. This man narrowly defeated his last opponent at the last moment of the first round and advanced in a thrilling way.
Due to injuries, Monkey Fist and Iron Sand Palm were more powerful, but they were destined to miss the competition.
Tokusaburo Ota, whose pseudonym is "He Ota", also spent three days and achieved two three-game winning streaks and one four-game winning streak, easily advancing.
In addition to the Zhepon people, there are two Britons, a White Russian, a Soviet and a black, and a Siamese also advanced to the second round.
Including Tokusaburo Ohta, a total of seven foreigners advanced.
There are about twenty foreigners participating, and the elimination rate is not high.
The day after the bonuses were distributed, the drawing ceremony for the second round of the "Championship Tournament" began.
According to the rules, including Su Yi, a total of one hundred and thirty-seven champions will be divided into thirty-four groups, with four people in each group to fight against each other. Each person needs to fight three games. A points system is adopted, with one point for a win and zero points for a loss.
.
The person with the most points in each group advances, and the remaining three are eliminated.
On the day of the draw, Su Yi also arrived at the scene and drew his three "group stage" opponents.
