C49 Part1

Translated by An Edited by An

The Yang family’s fist technique originated from ancient China’s ‘Singing Spring Fist’. Although it had undergone continuous reform and addition of movements to boost the index of its lethality, its objective was still ‘to use the crane as a form and the form as a fist’.

Its defining features were – a combination of movement and stillness, a clear distinction between what was true and what was false, an alternating speed, a regular ebb and flow, a rigidness that was not as rigid, a softness that was not as soft. It had both physical and spiritual forms, which were light and nimble yet graceful and confident. A person needed to have ample strength in their feet so that they could successfully shift their position and hand postures in a matter of seconds.

As evident from these qualities, one could easily imagine that this technique must be very elegant and beautiful. Besides, Yang QiQi had practiced this technique since she was a child and had already comprehended its quintessence a long time back. On top of everything, it was accompanied by the Yang family’s another secret technique, the Roaming Flower Steps! The effect of this footwork was that the user’s silhouette would become illusory, resembling the graceful image of a dancing crane. It was truly “like a swallow taking off by spreading its wings, akin to flying petals reflecting in the snow.”

The beastmen present were all intoxicated by the beauty of this scene.

In the arena, Lin Yu was about to go crazy.

She had fought here countless times with the other females but she had never encountered such an opponent. Her fireball could not even touch that ghostly figure, much less harm her. Moreover, as a junior level Female Warrior, her powers were limited. That was why, after condensing ten or so fireballs, she was already sweating profusely. Her face had turned pale and her hands had begun to shake.

Lin Yu gritted her teeth. Now, she could only rely on the physical strength of her body to fight: How can this little chick be my worthy opponent? Even if I don’t use my elemental powers, I can still slap her to death.

The expectation was impressive but the reality was too disappointing.

Lin Yu stretched out her claws and rushed towards Yang QiQi, aiming at her face. Even if she died, she had to die with an ugly face because this face really made her, Lin Yu, feel awful. However, just when she was about to scratch her face and kick her body, Yang QiQi’s figure moved out of her attack range swiftly. The quicker Lin Yu attacked, the faster she dodged. Yang QiQi’s figure was like a butterfly’s when it danced around a flower. But this made Lin Yu look ridiculous with her unkempt hair and threatening gestures.

On the other hand, Yang QiQi had a relaxed expression; a slight smile played on her lips. First, she used the Roaming Flower Steps to tease Lin Yu and steered her to continuously throw fireballs at herself. When she saw that Lin Yu was exhausted, she knew that she had found the opportunity she had been waiting for. She approached Lin Yu abruptly and hit straight at the opponent’s towering chest.

Lin Yu let out a miserable shriek. Trying to ignore the pain in her chest, she stretched out her arms and lunged forward again. But, Yang QiQi’s figure moved again. She held Lin Yu’s wrist with one hand and slid half of her body under her outstretched arms, striking her ruthlessly with her elbow. The people only heard a ‘crack’ when Lin Yu’s three ribs were broken. Before Lin Yu could even cry out in agony, Yang QiQi gripped Lin Yu and hooked her leg with her own feet. Then, she used the strength of her own body to lift and fling Lin Yu’s relatively huge body out of the arena.

“Waaa~” The crowd rose to their feet and rushed to the edge of the handrails.

This whole set of attack skills was smooth and natural. It looked very beautiful.

In terms of attributes, Lin Yu had it, while Yang QiQi had yet to learn how to use it. In terms of strength, Lin Yu, who was taller and stronger, clearly had the advantage. Before the start of this match, an overwhelming majority of the people in the audience believed that Yang QiQi’s chances of winning were practically nil. Nevertheless, she used a skill that they were unaware of, and successfully defeated Lin Yu.

Lin Yu felt as if she was an ocean wave that had crashed ashore. She laid on the ground for a while before she could even groan or move her body.

“Lady QiQi is extraordinary! Lady QiQi is really too strong!” Some beastmen yelled loudly.

“Lady QiQi, you are so cool!”
