Pulling off from his original stance, Sun Yonglu attacked first. Indeed, what Cheng Yugang said was true. His fist strike was a combination of real and fake. In reality, his fist strike was behind the actual attack, in order to create a false impression of the opponent. Luckily, Shao Xi had already expected this and avoided his scheme.
In fact, Shao Xi could clearly feel that although this Sun Yonglu was approaching in full fury, but in terms of actual combat, he was not very smart. Shao Xi did not want to waste any more time and energy, he stared at Sun Yonglu's weak defense lower body, squatted slightly, and punched Sun Yonglu twice. Next, Shao Xi seized the opportunity to attack —
Perhaps, no one could see how Shao Xi did that action. His left leg made a left turn in the air and his body soared into the air while his right foot moved diagonally to make a right kick. The movement was very smooth and just happened to hit Sun Yonglu's back.
Shao Xi had a plan in mind, so he deliberately stood still until Sun Yonglu attacked him with his legs, Shao Xi used his right hand to block and then stepped forward, combining the two punches one at a time. After the two punches were done, Sun Yonglu fell to the ground, unable to bear the impact.
Just this single series of fists had determined Shao Xi's victory.
Shao Xi did not expect to win the first round so easily. At this moment, the entire Special Guard cheering Shao Xi on and applauding loudly.
However, Shao Xi knew that the battles in the future would be even more intense, and there would be even more challenges waiting for him.
In the afternoon match, Shao Xi faced off against Team UF's Li Ming.
Unexpectedly, this time it went even more smoothly. Although Li Ming's physique was very large, his agility was very good, but his attack level was not something to be flattered about. In just a few rounds, Shao Xi had used a direct punch to knock him down onto the ground, establishing victory.
After the two matches, Shao Xi won the top 16 with an outstanding result. The next step would be for Shao Xi to compete against the other competitors for the top 8.
After returning to the squadron with a record of two wins, Shao Xi suddenly became the focus of the squadron. As his comrades evaluated Shao Xi's performance one after another, Shao Xi suddenly felt that he had become a celebrity.
Wu Gang also praised Shao Xi's performance, and said that he would give him a meal to celebrate. Shao Xi refused, "No need, captain, we'll talk about it after the competition is over. If you don't open your mouth at that time, I still need it from you!"
Wu Gang thought that Shao Xi's words were reasonable.
That night, Wang Mingwei and Cheng Yu Gang found Shao Xi with a video tape from who knows where.
Holding Shao Xi's list of challenges tomorrow, Wang Mingwei put the tape into the player and said, "This is the situation during last year's military combat tournament. Cheng Yu Gang and I analyzed that there are a few difficult characters among the top 32, and you may encounter them one after another, some of which were outstanding in the military combat competition last year. Moreover, this year, we will have a very good chance to fight with you and know that we can win a hundred battles.
"How did you get this information?" Shao Xi asked doubtfully.
Wang Mingwei laughed, "I just found out that there's a first lieutenant in the organizing committee for the military region competition. He's a classmate of mine from the south. I asked him to help me with it!"
Shao Xi's heart was deeply moved. Yes, for himself, these two Special Guard members had put in a lot of effort.
The three of them watched the recording together and analyzed the tactics on the stage until late at night.
However, Shao Xi didn't expect that the next day, the one fighting for the top eight would be the last year's Special Forces Combat Deputy, Wu Pengfei. This was a rank 2 officer from the DJ division. When Shao Xi saw him, he thought of Li Lianjie from "Zhongnanhai Bodyguard". He didn't need to think too much to know how amazing this person's martial arts skills were.
Perhaps it's because of last year's competition record, Wu Pengfei didn't put this somewhat emaciated soldier in his eyes, but his eyes were full of contempt. Wu Pengfei sized Shao Xi up and contemptuously said, "How could the organization committee arrange such an opponent for me. A new soldier is simply an insult to me, it's really detrimental to my fighting spirit!"
In addition to the two fighting instructors Cheng Yugang and Wang Mingwei's so-called psychological tactics, Shao Xiabao always wore the rank of recruit on his shoulders during the match.
Of course, Shao Xi didn't expect him to be so arrogant. He calmly said, "The matter of losing your fighting spirit is still at hand!"
Wu Pengfei pointed at Shao Xi and confidently said, "Do you believe that I can defeat you in a minute?"
"If you can defeat me within one minute, I can consider defeating you as a teacher!" Shao Xi wasn't angry at all. He liked to challenge experts, especially arrogant experts. He felt that the joy of victory was the true joy.
The duel officially began. Wu Pengfei took the initiative to attack first, his punches and kicks were especially fast, making Shao Xi unable to react.
In ten seconds Shao Xi was hit five or six times in a row, but this aroused his fighting spirit even more. In desperation, Shao Xi wanted to control the situation quickly, but he remembered Bruce Lee's kung fu — three consecutive punches. Shao Xi took the opportunity to launch three consecutive punches, giving Wu Pengfei a chance to retaliate. Wu Pengfei's shoulder was hit by Shao Xi's hook punch.
Wu Pengfei was a little angry and increased the strength of his attack.
Under Wu Pengfei's repeated attacks, Shao Xi became passive once again, only having the ability to dodge. However, the opponent wasn't without flaws, the more fierce the attacks, the greater the exposure, Shao Xi seized the opportunity to fly up with his right foot.
Shao Xi's kicks were too fast. No one could tell how that kicks managed to hit three parts of Wu Pengfei's body in an instant. In fact, this' three kicks' was something Shao Xi had created based on Bruce Lee's martial arts of 'three kicks in a row'. First, it was a low bounce kick, then it was a side bounce kick. Then, it arced and evolved into a high side-kick. The three leg techniques were completed in one go, and they had to connect extremely quickly in order for them to be able to continuously attack.
Of course, practicing this kick wasn't easy, in addition to having a good basic skill, one also had to practice it over and over again. During the process of practicing, one had to repeatedly think about how to bring their strength to a higher standard, that really wasn't easy at all. When Shao Xi first started practicing these three kicks, his speed was up, but his strength was always down.
In the blink of an eye, Wu Pengfei took three kicks on his body and was stunned. His self-confidence received a huge blow.
While Wu Peng flew to the side and dodged, Shao Xi took advantage of this opportunity to use a step to catch him. At the same time, Shao Xi used a step to catch him, and then a series of three kicks followed, hitting Wu Peng Fei.
The audience burst into applause.
Perhaps Wu Pengfei had witnessed the power of Shao Xi's punches and kicks and didn't dare to attack anymore, only defense. But Wu Pengfei also came from the battlefield, so he instantly made a strategic adjustment to focus his defense on Shao Xi's legs, and as soon as his lower body reacted, he would use his hands to intercept him, trying to block Shao Xi's legs from sprouting out, so that Shao Xi would have a hard time performing his miraculous three consecutive kicks.
But Wu Pengfei never expected that Shao Xi's fist was actually more powerful.
His three consecutive punches were all pirated versions of Bruce Lee. After a long time of practice, he had already reached the realm of ever-changing.
While Wu Pengfei was paying more attention to Shao Xi's groin, he was hit by a series of punches from Shao Xi several times. Shao Xi increased his strength and when Wu Pengfei took another punch, he actually staggered back four or five meters.
After Shao Xi had locked onto the winner, Wu Pengfei regretfully said, "If I didn't meet such a strong opponent, it's very possible that I would have entered the top six!"
Shao Xi thought to himself: Now you know how powerful I am. Didn't you just say that you would defeat me within a minute?
Of course, once they entered the top six, the competition would be even more intense.
