Many years ago, Xu Taiping had entered the Shaolin Temple as Shi Yan Xiu and followed the abbot of the Shaolin Temple to learn Shaolin Temple's secret arts. At that time, Xu Taiping wasn't his current self at all.

Xu Taiping had only been at Shaolin Temple for a year and had already memorized almost all of Shaolin Temple's absolute arts. It would be impossible for him to master all of them, but as long as Xu Taiping was willing, he could completely memorize all of the absolute arts he had learnt in Shaolin Temple, just like a movie show.

To the Shaolin Temple, Xu Taiping had been a rising star like a comet. Xu Taiping's perception was so great that even the abbot of the Shaolin Temple couldn't stop praising him.

The Shaolin Temple in China was divided into inner and outer temples. The outer temple was mainly responsible for secular business, while the inner temple was responsible for Shaolin's spiritual and martial arts heritage.

A rising star like Xu Taiping had only stayed in Shaolin Temple for a year before learning how to run away stealthily. It was said that at that time, the abbot of Shaolin Temple went into a rage, promising that as long as anyone could capture Shi Yanxiu and bring him back, he would be able to learn an absolute art at will. Unfortunately, even after so many years had passed, there was still no trace of him.

Currently, Shikong was obviously trying to sound out Xu Taiping because he had used a mixture of the Dharma Boxing and had some doubts towards him. However, Xu Taiping was a wise man, so he did not reveal any flaws, and furthermore, Xu Taiping had secretly decided that in today's martial arts competition, he would not use any of the Shaolin Temple's martial arts.

The smoke on his hands and feet slowly dispersed.

Xu Taiping took a deep breath and made a new gesture.

"Benefactor, you must be careful!" As Shikong spoke, he waved his fists and charged towards Xu Taiping.

His feet drew out a few words along with the fists on the ground. He swayed left and right, giving off an enigmatic feeling.

Xu Taiping's elbows slightly lowered, his center of gravity sinking as well. He took a defensive stance, waiting for Shikong to rush forward.

In the blink of an eye, Shikong appeared in front of Xu Taiping.

A pair of iron fists suddenly flew towards Xu Taiping. This time, Shi Kong did not use the Thousand Buddha Vajra Palm, but used the most common buddhist fist technique. As the pair of iron fists approached, Xu Taiping's hands naturally spread apart, and with two bangs, he grabbed onto Shikong's wrists.

"Beautiful!" Xu Buping, who was watching from afar, praised as Xu Taiping grabbed Shikong's hand.

Xu Taiping's move seemed ordinary, but it was extremely exquisite. When both hands attacked simultaneously, he was actually able to accurately grab both wrists. With that, Shikong's fighting spirit froze, and then he quickly pulled Shikong's hand forward.

The powerful force caused Shikong to lean forward unnaturally. At this time, Xu Taiping sent a high kick towards Shikong's chin.

Currently, both of Shi Kong's hands were under Xu Taiping's control, and there was no way for him to block with his own hands.

With a "peng" sound, Shikong's chin was kicked by Xu Taiping's foot, causing his entire body to fly upwards.

Xu Taiping tried to pull Shi Kong down, but at this moment, a violent shaking force came from Shi Kong's hands.

No matter how much strength Xu Taiping used in his hands, they were still unnaturally released by the shaking.

Shikong jumped up into the air, somersaulting backwards to create some distance between him and Xu Taiping.

The instant Shikong's feet touched the ground, Shikong's unshod feet slammed into the ground. He bent down so much that Shikong felt as if he was sitting on the ground.

After accumulating enough power, Shikong's legs released a tremendous amount of power.

With a bang, the ground broke apart, and then, just like that, Shikong shot towards Xu Taiping like a cannonball.

Seeing Shikong flying towards him, Xu Taiping wanted to punch him in the head, but at this moment, he saw a thick cocoon around Shikong's head.

Xu Taiping's pupils constricted. In that instant, Xu Taiping moved to the side, and then he spread out his fingers, one hand holding his lower hand, as if he had grabbed a ball.

Just as Xu Taiping's hand was about to land, Shikong's head slammed into Xu Taiping's hand. Xu Taiping's arms shook violently for a moment, and then his hands started to twist as well.

The lightning-fast head of Shikong seemed to have fled into a net.

The powerful force dragged Xu Taiping's hands and he flew to the side. Xu Taiping spread his legs, and after jumping twice on the ground, he rubbed his hands together.

Shikong's body came to a sudden stop. Then, his head was grabbed by Xu Taiping's hands, almost as if he were rubbing a ball.

"Taiji!" In the distance, Xu Bajie narrowed his eyes and said, "This Xu Taiping knows Wudang's Eight Trigrams Palm, Taiji, and also seems to know a little Shaolin Temple's boxing style. At the same time, there are also some shadows of the Wing of Spring.

"It's just that it's useless to comprehend more than it's worth." The security guard that almost kicked the person out of the way said in disdain.

Xu Bajie didn't say anything, but continued to stare at Xu Taiping.

On the stage, Xu Taiping continued to rub Shikong's head, and Shikong's entire body seemed to have fallen into a spinning drum. A sticky power came from Xu Taiping's hands, making it impossible for Shikong to break away from Xu Taiping's grip.

Suddenly, Xu Taiping's hands stopped, and then he opened his hands and pressed them against Shikong's head.

Bang!

At the same time, Xu Taiping turned around and swung his fist, using the centrifugal force brought about by the spin, he waved his fist and punched Shikong in the face.

Bang!

Shikong was sent flying to the side. His body spun around a thousand degrees in the air before crashing to the ground.

Xu Taiping clasped his hands, stood up, and said, "Master, you've lost."

"Hua!"

The entire scene burst into cheers. Xu Taiping's hand was too beautiful, especially that Taiji Fist which was controlling Shikong, it was a very good level, Shikong's head was like a ball, and Xu Taiping was the best player. With the ball in his hand, it was completely up to him.

Shikong seemed to have fainted on the ground. Xu Taiping looked towards the referee and said, "He has fainted. You can announce it now."

"Alright, I'll announce it now …"

"Wait a moment." Shikong's voice suddenly sounded out, and after that, he used both hands to prop himself up.

Two nosebleeds flowed out of Shi Kong's nose, and there was a bruise on his face, making him look miserable.

"Contestant Shi Kong, can you still fight?" the referee asked.

"I can do it!" Shikong nodded and said, "I won't admit defeat."

"Master, if you don't admit defeat, you will be injured." Xu Taiping said.

"Master once told us that setbacks are the best weapon to sharpen us. Only by constantly suffering setbacks can we become stronger. If I get hurt in the process, it's all my own free will, and I won't blame you. " Shi Kong said.

"Alright then." Xu Taiping rubbed his fingers and said with a smile, "Since master wants to break through under pressure, then I will fulfill your wish."

Shikong nodded. He did not wipe away the blood on his face, but looked at Xu Taiping and began to chant.

"

"* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Xu Taiping paused for a second, and then laughed, "What an empty curse, this is not meant to be used in fights. This is the Heart Tranquility Curse. "

Shikong was still chanting, ignoring Xu Taiping.

"Although I really want to spar a few more times with you, master, I am truly sorry. I must send you down now. Otherwise, the audience will say that I was letting you go." As Xu Taiping spoke, he stepped on the ground and flew towards Shikong.

Xu Taiping's speed was extremely fast. In the blink of an eye, he had arrived less than two meters away from Shi Kong.

Right at this moment, Shikong suddenly opened his palms, throwing a palm towards Xu Taiping.

The palm strike instantly blossomed in the air, turning into hundreds of hand seals.

"This level of the Thousand Buddha Vajra Palm is unable to injure me!" Xu Taiping laughed out loud. He raised his fist and swung it forward like he was throwing a baseball.

This punch tore through the air before him, causing an ear-piercing sound as it tore through the air.

It was at this point that the hundreds of hand seals exploded out again. Each hand seal transformed into three or four hand seals, which then appeared in front of Xu Taiping, forming an enormous wall!

"Holy shit, he really broke through?!" Xu Taiping turned pale with fright. He never thought that Shikong would actually break through at this time. The Thousand Buddha Vajra Palm could already be considered as a success. The power of this palm strike was at least several times stronger than before!

However, Xu Taiping had already thrown out his fist, he couldn't withdraw it. If he did, the backlash would be enough to make Xu Taiping suffer, and he definitely wouldn't be able to block the palm attack from the hundreds of palms in front of him.

Shi Kong's eyes were wide open, a victorious smile on his face.

In the blink of an eye, those hundreds of palms combined into one and then suddenly attacked Xu Taiping's chest.

At the same time, in a single breath, Shi Kong was lifted up to his chest, and Shi Kong instantly used Shaolin Temple's secret technique – Golden Bell Cover.

A "peng" sound was heard.

Shikong placed his hand on Xu Taiping's chest.

With a "clang", Xu Taiping's fist landed on Shi Kong's chest.

The sound produced by the two were not the same. Xu Taiping's fist on Shikong's chest was like hitting a steel plate. Mobile users please browse and read, better reading experience.
