Comprehensive Martial Arts: Relying on Pili Martial Arts to Achieve Dimensionality Reduction Attack

Chapter 79: Grabbing the Buns

"Will you let me participate? Interesting..."

In fact, Lu Ping also wanted to fight.

Among the four people who are about to compete, Linghu Chong, Hua Wuque, Zhang Wuji, and Jian Wuji, which one of them is not a leader of the younger generation?

Letting an ordinary passerby go up to deal with them is indeed a bit of bullying. It is better to do it yourself, which not only helps others but also satisfies your own desire to fight.

"Let me make it clear first. I'll help you fight, and whether you win or lose is yours!"

The man shook his head hurriedly: "No, no, no... It's just three taels of silver. If you lose, it's mine. If you win, the voucher is naturally yours. I'm just here to watch the fun and feel a little involved."

"No way! I never take advantage of others for no reason!"

"…Are you serious?"

The man stared at Lu Ping's face seriously for a few seconds, and his expression seemed to be thinking: Is there such a fool in this world who doesn't like to take advantage of others?

"Of course it's true, I'm a gentleman!"

"Well...thank you very much, young man!"

The two of them did not reveal their discussion to the others, but the other four also spoke out to stop them.

He probably thought that it was really meaningless to bully ordinary people with his own abilities, so it would be better to let someone who knew martial arts take the field, which would also be a good opportunity to test Lu Ping's strength.

Hua Wu Que felt something was wrong——

Lu Ping lent himself money to participate in the competition, but now he has taken someone else's qualification for nothing?

If that’s the case, why don’t I just compete with that random person for the qualification to participate?

At least this way I can save myself a debt of three taels of silver!
In other words, Lu Ping had no way of hearing Hua Wu Que's inner thoughts. If he had heard them, he would have criticized him: "If I let you bypass me and go directly to that passerby to get the qualification to participate, wouldn't I be able to do you a favor?"

[Trigger a new main mission]: Win the steamed bun competition

The replacement of contestants did not attract the attention of the main organizers.

They don't care who plays, as long as those who play play well, beautifully and brilliantly and can attract the crowd. Of course, it would be even better if they can trigger a "star effect" and bring more diners to the inn.

After a little preparation, Lu Ping and the other four climbed onto the competition platform together.

This platform was built with stone and wood. It wasn't very large, but it was more than enough for the competition. Lu Ping stepped on it twice and found that it was quite stable.

"I never thought things would turn out to be so interesting. It was a good decision to go down the mountain this time!"

Zhang Wuji reminded him, "Brother Linghu, you can't use swords in this match, don't you know that?"

"Of course I know this kind of thing!"

Linghu Chong laughed, and then set his eyes on the chopsticks placed on the central wooden table: "You want to use chopsticks as swords... This is the first time for me to do this, but it shouldn't be a big problem..."

If Linghu Chong is going to use chopsticks as a sword, then Jian Wuji is going to use chopsticks as a knife.

"Speaking of which, this situation seems to be more beneficial to Junior Brother Zhang and Young Master Hua?"

Wudang Tai Chi and Yihua Palace's Yihua Jieyu are both exquisite moves for using the opponent's force to dissipate it in close combat. In this respect, Zhang Wuji and Hua Wuque do have an advantage.

"But when it comes to light-body skills, Taihua School is more famous than Wudang!"

"It is my honor to learn the martial arts of Wudang and Taihua. I hope you can give me more guidance later..." Disciples from big sects are so humble and like to flatter each other, unlike Lu Ping and Jian Wuji who come from wild backgrounds and like to brag about themselves.

"When it comes to close combat and martial arts, we are not afraid of them. Do you want me to let you guys go for a while?"

Now that he has mastered the 'Tai Chi Xuan' and 'Shui Feng Xing Bu', he is more than capable of handling this match. However, this is his first time in a group fight, and his opponents are all talented young people. He is still a little excited just thinking about it.

"You are even crazier than me? I will show you what a genius swordsman is in a moment!"

"Stop talking nonsense, the etiquette is all in the fist, come on!"

"It's not coming, it's coming~"

clang--! !

Amid the cheers of the onlookers, the organizer struck the gong, marking the official start of the "steamed bun grabbing competition."

At the moment the gong sounded, five figures on the stage moved at the same time.

The fastest one was naturally Lu Ping. The explosive power of his Shuifeng walking style was simply unmatched by the other four.

In the afterimage, Lu Ping rushed to the central wooden table, quickly picked up a pair of chopsticks on the table and picked up a steamed bun. Then, without moving his upper body, his feet quickly retreated back. His body followed the afterimage left before, and he stopped at the edge of the table and placed the steamed bun in his bamboo tray.

The whole process was like strolling in the garden, free and easy, with movements as smooth as flowing water, as if it had been rehearsed countless times.

"Ha~ First victory!"

Many audience members in the audience hadn't reacted yet. They only saw a flash before their eyes, and then a white and tender hot steamed bun appeared on the bamboo tray next to Lu Ping.

For a moment, exclamations and gasps of shock were heard one after another.

Just as Lu Ping put the steamed bun down, one of the remaining four people had just arrived at the central wooden table.

As expected, the second place is Linghu Chong.

The peak of Mount Taihua is famous for its danger and is known as the "most dangerous in the world". The Qinggong skills practiced in such an environment are naturally much stronger than those practiced in Mount Wudang and Xiuyu Valley.

The move 'Wind Sending Purple Clouds' made Linghu Chong gain a lot of face in this small arena.

Looking at Jian Wuji next to him, his speed ranked third.

Although his Wuji swordsmanship has the characteristics of 'fast sword speed' and 'fast body movement', his body movement needs to be used in conjunction with the sword. Now that he has no sword in his hand, he can't even use the most basic footwork.

It may sound ridiculous, but it's true.

The martial arts of Wudang and Yihua Palace were not known for their lightness and physical skills, so Zhang Wuji and Hua Wuque fell behind at the end. Fortunately, they managed to get the chopsticks safely in the end.

However, the real competition is just about to begin!
If the five people were only concerned with getting their own steamed buns the whole time, then they only needed to compete in their lightness skills and hand speed, and there was no need for them to participate in this competition at all.

Since the rule of the game is to 'grab', then we have to 'snatch food from the tiger's mouth'!
After getting the chopsticks, Jian Wuji's movements and speed were the first to change.

As mentioned before, he can use chopsticks as knives to perform Wuji swordsmanship, and only when he has something in his hand can he increase his speed without cutting people.

So although Jian Wuji was the third one to grab the chopsticks, he was the second one to return to his original position. Linghu Chong became the third one, while Hua Wuque and Zhang Wuji were still ranked fourth and fifth.

As the four men retreated, Lu Ping rushed forward again. When Zhang Wuji put his first steamed bun into the bamboo tray, Lu Ping also put in the second one.

"It seems that my efficiency is twice as good as others..."

This game is secured!
