"Congratulations to the reincarnated Jiang Chen for completing the third subsidiary mission: On the stage of the Chinese-Western boxing match, defeat the Western boxing king Tornado with Chinese martial arts. Mission completed, you have earned the opportunity to cleanse your body and strengthen your bones. You can choose to use it at any time within three days, or it will expire.........."

"The fourth subsidiary mission has been activated: The endless path of martial arts, one mountain and one pass. After accepting the mission, the reincarnated Jiang Chen must challenge the world's top martial artists and maintain a hundred consecutive victories within ten years. You will receive a pair of gravity leg rings. If the mission fails, one of the reincarnated's five senses will be arbitrarily deprived. The time limit is one cycle world......."

Jiang Chen, who was being carried by the crowd, received the information transmitted by the reincarnation bracelet and couldn't help but smile. If not for this mission, with his current strength, why would he need to go to great lengths to defeat the Western boxing king Tornado with Wing Chun?

After comprehending the unity of the three elements, Jiang Chen had gradually lifted the restrictions of ancient martial arts in this cycle world. Unless it was a true master of Chinese martial arts who had achieved the Dan stage, even those who had reached the Transformation stage like Hong Zhenan and Yip Man would not be a match for him.

Therefore, defeating Tornado, who was not his opponent, naturally did not give Jiang Chen much sense of achievement. However, completing the third subsidiary mission and receiving a generous reward was still something to be happy about. Seeing the cheering Chinese people around him, Jiang Chen couldn't help but be influenced by their enthusiasm.

"Great job! Master Jiang, great job!"

"Really impressive, Master Jiang. Your Wing Chun is truly amazing. Just a few moves, and you knocked that foreigner down."

"Master Jiang, by defeating the Western boxing king, you have brought glory to our country. You're really something!"

On the stage, people gathered around Jiang Chen, and the entire venue was filled with cheering Chinese people. The excited shouts formed a massive wave, as if shaking the mountains and rivers, and stirring the deep-seated passion within the Chinese people, making it surge continuously.

For a long time, the Chinese people needed a hero, a hero who could ignite and awaken the passion in their hearts, allowing them to regain their confidence, straighten their backs, and stand tall, declaring to the world the awakening of the Chinese people!

"A Chen." When Yip Man saw Jiang Chen, his first words were not praise but a concerned question: "How do you feel? Did you get hurt just now?"

Although he was not injured, Jiang Chen couldn't help but feel a warm current in his heart from the genuine concern of others. In the world of "The Return of the Condor Heroes," he had once envied Yang Guo for this. Now, it was his turn, and he realized how warm this feeling was.

His fellow disciples put Jiang Chen down, and he straightened his body, looking at Yip Man who had walked up to him, and smiled in response: "Master, don't worry, I'm fine."

"Good, that's good." Having often sparred with this eldest disciple, Yip Man naturally knew Jiang Chen's martial prowess. He patted Jiang Chen's shoulder with great satisfaction and praised him: "A Chen, you did very well this time."

"Master Jiang! Master Jiang!" Several reporters used all their skills to force their way to the front of the stage, extending their microphones and loudly asked: "Do you have anything to say right now?"

Upon hearing this, the chaotic crowd suddenly quieted down, and everyone focused their attention on Jiang Chen, waiting for his response.

Having experienced countless battles in Xiangyang, Jiang Chen's heart was as firm as iron, and he naturally had no fear of the stage. He immediately walked to the edge of the stage and said into the microphone: "Hello everyone!"

The translator quickly translated Jiang Chen's words into English: "He said: Hello."

"Today, I challenged on stage not to prove that Chinese martial arts are superior to Western boxing, nor to force Mr. Taylor to apologize to us Chinese. What I wanted was simply to reclaim the dignity of our Chinese people and the dignity of Chinese martial arts."

Jiang Chen said solemnly: "My master, Mr. Yip Man, not only taught me Wing Chun but also taught me the way of being a person. People may have differences in status, wealth, and position, but in terms of personality, there should be no distinction of high or low. So... I hope that we, whether Chinese or Westerners, can respect each other!"

The translator translated Jiang Chen's words verbatim. Upon hearing this, the crowd, whether Chinese or Westerners, applauded in approval.

"Good! Well said!" Hong Zhenan couldn't help but look at Jiang Chen with admiration and then said to Yip Man: "Master Yip, congratulations, you have a great disciple!"

"Too much praise, too much praise." Yip Man quickly responded humbly, but the smile on his face, which he couldn't hide, clearly showed that he was extremely pleased at this moment.

Jiang Chen glanced at Yip Man and said, "Master, let's go back."

"Good." Yip Man nodded with a smile, his eyes filled with satisfaction. Jiang Chen's words just now were exactly what he often lamented during their discussions about martial arts and philosophy. He never expected that Jiang Chen would spread these ideas to the world, which indirectly showed that Jiang Chen recognized his philosophy, making him even more satisfied with this eldest disciple.

Reflecting on the past, he had been able to overcome one challenge after another, and much of it was due to the support of his eldest disciple, Jiang Chen. He could even say without hesitation that without Jiang Chen, he and his family would not have such a comfortable life in Hong Kong.

On the way back, Jiang Chen and the others frequently encountered Chinese people who greeted them. Due to the expanded influence of the Chinese-Western boxing match, Jiang Chen, the Chinese martial artist who defeated the Western boxing king, was naturally very popular. As Jiang Chen's master, Yip Man's prestige also reached a very high level, and many people regarded him and Hong Zhenan as the two great masters of the Chinese martial arts community in Hong Kong.

Jiang Chen became famous, Yip Man became famous, and Wing Chun also became famous. For a time, whether in the streets or alleys of Hong Kong, people were discussing Wing Chun. Many even wanted to learn martial arts from Jiang Chen, but he naturally refused, promptly declaring to the public that he was not yet qualified to take on disciples.

However, he underestimated the enthusiasm of the Chinese people. Since they couldn't become his disciples, they decided to become fellow disciples. As a result, more and more people came to Yip Man to learn martial arts, almost continuously. Even some Westerners came to learn, but with Yip Man's relatively conservative views, he was not yet willing to accept them as disciples.

In the future, Wing Chun would spread throughout the world, and Chinese martial arts would spread throughout the world. Regardless of nationality or ethnicity, as long as one was sincere, they could learn. But it would not be now. The racial tensions between the East and the West, and the immense harm inflicted by Western powers on China, still needed time to heal.

However, this did not hinder the popularity of Wing Chun. Yip Man, who was originally conservative, could not resist Jiang Chen's constant persuasion and the substantial financial support for setting up factories, teahouses, and restaurants to provide job opportunities for Wing Chun disciples. He could only smile and accept suitable disciples. Soon, the number of his disciples exceeded two hundred, and even more were unregistered. To facilitate teaching, he had to rent a large martial arts hall, which became the predecessor of the famous Wing Chun Martial Arts Hall.

While the Wing Chun Martial Arts Hall was developing rapidly, Zhang Yongcheng gave birth to a boy for Yip Man, named Yip Zheng.

On the same day, the Black-robed Asura reappeared, taking advantage of the darkness to kill many Western officials, including David. This made the Westerners furious, but they also had to adopt a conciliatory policy to avoid large-scale riots by the Chinese, treating the Chinese in Hong Kong as fairly and justly as possible.

Given the special circumstances of the current situation and the establishment of the People's Republic of China on the mainland, Jiang Chen could easily achieve his goals. He had done all he could. Next, he planned to travel far and begin his journey. The endless path of martial arts, one mountain and one pass, his era was just beginning.........
