Before Dong Qishan could defend himself, the gossips around Zhao Yunfei immediately started to criticize him. Some scolded Dong Qishan for surrendering to the enemy before the battle, while others scolded him for forgetting his ancestors. Dong Qishan was unable to reply after being scolded, his face turned red, and his hands were merely clenched into fists.
Seeing that the scolding was getting worse and worse, Zhang Yongsheng quickly stopped him and said, "We don't have to be like this. We are all classmates in the same school. Let's keep a line in our lives so that we can meet each other easily in the future. They have been exposed to Western advertisements outside and do not believe that traditional martial arts is about love. It’s excusable, let’s correct them today.”
Zhao Yunfei clapped his hands in approval and said loudly: "Lao Zhang is right, today is considered an internal correction, so don't be too aggressive. I'll go first in a moment, and then let Lao Zhang go if I can't do it anymore. You may not know, I was taught by Lao Zhang, and it is our old tradition that if a disciple has something to do, he will do his duty."
Li Mingyu said proudly: "Your pretensions are outdated. Today I will wake you up and show you the real advanced fighting techniques. I invited Senior Brother Liao Dengfeng to be the referee. Each round will be three minutes, and the three rounds will be decided." Victory or defeat, how about it?”
Zhao Yunfei looked at Zhang Yongsheng, and Zhang Yongsheng nodded and said, "Okay, since Mr. Liao is the referee, we have nothing to worry about. Although he is not a good fighter, he is fairly fair."
Liao Dengfeng is a sports student who practices free kickboxing. He is actually a halfway monk. He used to practice track and field. Last year, he had a fight with Zhao Yunfei. At that time, the two were bastard boxing vs. bastard boxing, and they barely managed a draw. Liao Dengfeng is relatively honest and has a stubborn temper. He will not take the initiative to deceive others.
Everyone waited in the training room for a while, and Liao Dengfeng came in with several senior sports students. He was familiar with both sides, said hello to the crowd around him, and then arranged the referee's table. The few high school students he brought quickly became busy and sat in a row on the side of the ring.
Each of them holds a record book in their hands and looks serious. One of them also held a hand-cranked bell and timer, which should be used to control the time of each round. Seeing their formal appearance, Zhang Yongsheng and Zhao Yunfei looked at each other a little bit.
The two of them originally thought they were resolving a minor conflict in private, but who knew that with Li Mingyu's arrangements and the gossip party's encouragement, the competition would become so formal. There were nearly a hundred classmates around, watching helplessly. Those who couldn't squeeze in at the door even clung to the windows in the corridor to watch.
Soon Liao Dengfeng was ready. People who bought tickets to enter the training room under his organization sat down around the ring, waiting for the game to start. Although there were many fights in No. 2 Middle School, such formal competitions were rare. The audience's faces were full of excitement and their eyes were full of joy.
Liao Dengfeng blew the whistle around his neck, walked to the ring and said loudly: "Everyone, today is a challenge for Li Mingyu, a second-year high school student, to Zhang Yongsheng and Zhao Yunfei, two classmates of the same grade. The rules are to follow free fighting, and a total of Three rounds, three minutes each, please prepare.”
Then Li Mingyu and Zhao Yunfei stood up at the same time and began to move their muscles in preparation for playing. Because of the nature of the competition, both of them had to wear armor and gloves. Although Zhao Yunfei felt that it was unnecessary, seeing that he was so well prepared, he was embarrassed to lose face.
Zhao Yunfei practices Taizu Changquan, and there are not many restrictions on wearing gloves. Only some grappling moves cannot be used. Zhang Yongsheng seized one minute of preparation time and gave a few words of advice, so that Zhao Yunfei knew what to do and try to use short strikes and wrestling to win. This aspect is Taekwondo's weakness.
One minute ended quickly. Zhao Yunfei put on his armor with the help of Zhang Yongsheng, and walked onto the ring after being inspected by Liao Dengfeng. At the same time, Li Mingyu also came up from the other side of the ring. He was tall, ten centimeters taller than Zhao Yunfei, and looked very imposing.
From a layman's perspective, Zhao Yunfei suffered a huge loss. But all the local students in No. 2 Middle School know that Zhao Yunfei has never suffered a disadvantage in a fight because of his height. Whether he faced Wang Ping before or Wu Daming, who was taller than Wang Ping, Zhao Yunfei always had a way to defeat the opponent.
After a while, the two of them stood in the middle of the ring. Liao Dengfeng stood between them and told them a few words about not hitting taboo parts, and then a whistle sounded to announce the start of the game. Zhao Yunfei and Li Mingyu tested each other's moves as the whistle sounded, and then each took a step back.
Li Mingyu's footwork is very simple, using common jumping steps. His footwork was flexible and changeable, jumping around Zhao Yunfei, testing the distance between the two sides, and constantly using his feet to fight. Zhao Yunfei used the traditional virtual and real steps to defend instead of attack, adopting the strategy of staying still if the enemy does not move, and moving first if the enemy moves.
Li Mingyu tested Zhao twice and found that Zhao Yunfei had no obvious reaction. He suddenly rushed forward and used his high whip kick. Zhao Yunfei slid back, avoiding the opponent's toes just in time, and at the same time determined the opponent's offensive and defensive distance. This is the strategy Zhang Yongsheng taught him. If you control the distance well, you will be invincible.
Seeing that Zhao Yunfei did not fight back, Li Mingyu became more confident and kicked out with his feet continuously, like a butterfly walking through a flower, which was very beautiful. Zhao Yunfei used various footwork of Taizu Changquan and circled around the opponent, causing the opponent's gorgeous kicks to fail one by one.
Taekwondo is a modern fighting technique that uses kicking as the main offensive and defensive system. It is especially famous for its gorgeous and changeable kicking. Li Mingyu has practiced Taekwondo for many years and has mastered this set of kicks very beautifully. He kicks out his legs in a series and draws an enchanting attack line in the air, which is dazzling.
Li Mingyu's free and easy offensive and defensive posture when kicking, as well as his handsome movements, immediately aroused a burst of warm applause. Those who applauded were not only the transfer students from other schools, but also some local students from No. 2 Middle School, and some girls who came to watch the fun.
At the end of a round of rapid attacks, Li Mingyu missed Zhao Yunfei, but won the applause of his classmates, with a proud smile on his face. In his opinion, Zhao Yunfei was strong on the outside and hard on the inside. He didn't dare to fight him head-on. He could only find opportunities by dodging. He considers himself to be very experienced in fighting opponents of this level.
Li Mingyu is 1.9 meters tall with long legs and is very talented in taekwondo. His footwork is quick and his legs have a huge range of control, so he has an advantage among his peers. When competing with others, what he is best at is using this advantage to control the scope of the arena and force his opponents to be unable to resist.
Some of Zhao Yunfei's friends in the audience were worried about him, because Li Mingyu's range of control was too large, his kicks were gorgeous and sharp, and he looked better than his previous opponents. Most of the people present were laymen, and those who knew the ropes would naturally think whoever played well would have a better chance of winning.
Zhang Yongsheng nodded secretly, Zhao Yunfei's response strategy was in line with his expectations. Zhao Yunfei has been practicing for four or five months and has had many private discussions with him. The basic offensive and defensive system has been established. What he lacks now is actual combat experience, which can only be tempered in actual combat games one after another.
