I Attained Invincibility In The Real World Chapter 21

21 Chapter 21: Sparring and Direct Disciples
Translator: 549690339
Following Li Xingwu, besides Wu Ran, there's another man and woman.

The woman has a ponytail and a very pretty face, even when wearing workout clothes, one can roughly discern her streamlined figure.

However, there's always an unapproachable aura around her, destroying some of her beauty.

Even so,

As soon as the woman steps out, she attracts the gazes of most men in the Practice Martial Field.

The other man looks the oldest among the three.

Compared to Wu Ran's arrogance and the woman's coldness,

His expression looks much gentler, occasionally nodding and smiling at the people practicing around him.

At this moment,

Shi Jian, the professional narrator, conscientiously began to fulfill his duties by introducing the two to Chen Sheng.

“That woman is called Li Qian, she's the Grand Master's granddaughter, and also your master's niece.”

“She was accepted into the Martial Arts Hall half a year ago, I heard it's because there was an incident in her family, and she's the only one left.”

“Her character is quite terrible, every time she spars, she's always the one who doesn't adjust her strength accordingly and often hurts the disciples of the Martial Arts Hall.”

“But her talent is good, and due to her relationship as a relative, the Grand Master would at most scold her a bit, she pretty much gets away with it.”

“You better not provoke her, it's best not even to be social with her.”

At this point, Shi Jian seemed to recall some painful memories, and his eyebrows twitched in discomfort.

“As for the other man, his name is Guo Yang.”

“He's the Grand Master's closest disciple, and he has been studying Xingyi Fist for more than ten years. In the entire Martial Arts Hall, other than the Grand Master, he has the strongest strength.”

“Brother Guo has the most gentle temper among the three direct disciples. He always guides us, unlike the other two who are quite snobbish.”

“If you get to spar with Brother Guo, consider yourself lucky.”

Having heard these introductions,

Chen Sheng now had a basic understanding of the other two people.

“Wait.”

“The sparring you just mentioned is…”

He noticed a word in Shi Jian's speech he had never heard before.

But Shi Jian didn't answer, instead, he patted him on the shoulder and smiled, showing his teeth.

“You'll find out soon.”

At the same time.

Li Xingwu came to the tea table in the Practice Martial Field, carrying his hands, and sat down slowly.

He lightly claps his hands together.

Slap!

The crisp clap echoed throughout the entire practice field.

As soon as the sound rang out, everyone moved towards the tea table.

“Let's go.”

Shi Jian went together with Chen Sheng.

Before long,

Everyone gathered around the tea table,

Li Xingwu leisurely sipped his tea.

Chen Sheng looked around.

He noticed that most of the martial art hall disciples had mournful expressions, and some even closed their eyes and murmured slightly, as if praying.

Soon enough,

Li Xingwu puts down his teacup.

Bang!

He snorted coldly and slapped the tea table heavily.

“Look at how defeated you all are.”

“Without real combat, do you all want to become masters through self-study?!”

“For a martial artist, other than talent, the most important thing is courage.”

“Without courage, how can you kill the enemy in battle?!”

Li Xingwu's voice roared like thunder.

His sharp gaze swept over the mournful-looking people.

They hurriedly puffed out their chests, pretending to be fearless.

Seeing this,

Li Xingwu began to speak again.

“Zhang San, Zhao Si, Wang Wu… you all follow Li Qian.”

He consecutively calls out several names.

The faces of the named people turned bitter when they heard the final words.

Chen Sheng clearly heard Shi Jian next to him heave a heavy sigh of relief.

“Shi Jian, Wang Qiang, Liang Yi… you all follow Wu Ran.”

The expressions on their faces were neutral.

“Too bad, we didn't draw a good lot.”

Shi Jian lamented on the side.

“The rest of you, follow Guo Yang.”

“And you, your name is Chen Sheng, right?”

After finishing the last sentence, without waiting for the other people to rejoice, Li Xingwu's gaze suddenly pierced through the crowd and landed on Chen Sheng.

“Since you haven't practiced martial arts before, watch and learn carefully today.”

“In a while, you will also join in sparring.”

“If you perform poorly at that time, don't expect my stupid son to back you up.”

“Our Xingwu Gym doesn't raise idlers!”

As his words fell,

The eyes of most people around fell on Chen Sheng.

Including the direct disciples Guo Yang and Li Qian.

As for this disciple of the Martial Hall Master's son, they had just heard about him,

But they were just curious about what kind of person could make Li Chenghu personally bring him to the Martial Arts Hall.

After all, Li Chenghu is just a nominal disciple in the Martial Arts Hall.

People respected him only for his status as the son of the Martial Hall Master and the Captain of the Wu'an Bureau Arrest Team.

His real expertise is in boxing.

When it comes to martial arts, he isn't as good as most of the people present.

“Junior Brother, do you know what's his background?”

Guo Yang quietly approached Wu Ran and whispered.

“Mediocre talent, Senior Brother need not worry.”

Wu Ran did not pay attention to Chen Sheng like the others.

Even as he spoke, his eyes were closed, lost in thought.

Hearing this,

Guo Yang nodded in relief.

He asked this because the resources for direct disciples were limited.

The more of them there were, the less resources they would have to share.

Therefore,

Having fewer direct disciples was better.

Knowing that Chen Sheng wasn't a threat, Guo Yang gave him a polite smile.

As for the other disciple Li Qian,

She stopped paying attention to Chen Sheng after hearing Wu Ran's evaluation.

Chen Sheng didn't know about these hidden agendas among the direct disciples.

Once Li Xingwu had spoken, he bowed in acknowledgment.

Then,

The three direct disciples each led a group of disciples to a corner of the practice martial field.

Chen Sheng followed Shi Jian and came to Wu Ran's side.

He planned to take turns checking out the strengths of these direct disciples.

“Who's first.”

Once everyone stood still, Wu Ran emotionlessly asked from the center.

“Brother Wu, I'll go first.”

Shi Jian raised his hand.

“The sooner I die, the sooner I'll be reborn.”

He muttered quietly and then walked to Wu Ran's front.

“Please enlighten me.”

Shi Jian made a respectful bow.

“Hm.”

Wu Ran nodded slightly.

“I will control my force to match yours.”

Chen Sheng suddenly became very alert.

This was his first time seeing martial artists battling in reality.

Both of them took their stances at the same time.

Shi Jian initiated the attack first.

He took three steps merging into two, and his massive body charged at Wu Ran with the force of a storm.

His arm was like an axe blade, his fist broke through the air, aimed at Wu Ran's neck.

All these movements were completed within a single breath.

Much faster than during practice.

Chen Sheng stared closely at the two, not wanting to miss any detail.

Fortunately, his senses had improved a lot in the past few days.

Otherwise, he might not be able to catch Shi Jian's movements.

At this moment,

As the fist was about to hit his neck, Wu Ran remained calm and composed.

“Too slow.”

Next second,

He moved.

Left leg stepped forward, right arm punched straight into the ribs.

Bang!

The sudden pain in his ribs caused Shi Jian's attack to come to an abrupt halt.

He gritted his teeth and barely managed to keep his body from tilting.

However,

Wu Ran's onslaught had not stopped.

He took half a step forward and punched straight towards Shi Jian's chest.

Shi Jian hastily blocked.

“Too much of a gap.”

With a casual comment, Wu Ran instantly changed his move, and struck Shi Jian's left ribs once again.

Bang!

“Your footwork is too unstable.”

Bang!

“Your defense is too weak.”

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Bang.

The last sound.

It was the noise of Shi Jian's body hitting the floor.

In less than ten seconds,

Shi Jian was defeated with no chance of fighting back, gasping for air while covering his injured spots.

“Leave when you're done.”

“Don't waste time here.”

Wu Ran's disdainful expression,

Made Chen Sheng frown.

Shi Jian forcibly endured the pain and climbed up from the ground.

“Thank you Senior Brother for your guidance.”

Then,

He limped off into the crowd.

“Next.”

Wu Ran's indifferent voice rang out once more.
