256: Chapter 253 Good Words Are Hard to Persuade a Damn Ghost

"That's where you don't understand. This Azure Dragon is a flexible fatty. He's even participated in a football match. Can you imagine the image of such a big fatty playing football?"

"This..."

Zhang Zhao was stunned. He must be nearly three hundred pounds, right? Can he really play football?

"If you have ever learned about Mongolian Bökh, you should know that this is an ancient wrestling technique with a long Legacy. As for this Azure Dragon, it is said that ever since he retired, he has started to study wrestling techniques and Jiu-Jitsu from all over the world.

Don't let his massive size fool you; he looks very clumsy, but his movements are not slow at all. Ordinary fighting experts, when facing him, find it difficult to cause him any damage with a kick or a punch.

And he is agile; as long as he protects his vital points, his defense is basically unbreakable. However, Brother Leg has a way of dealing with him."

Chen Youcai smiled. He was clearly very proud to have Brother Leg on their side, feeling even more proud than if he were the one who was powerful.

"So, has Brother Leg always been the one holding up the facade of Huaxia Traditional Martial Arts?" Zhang Zhao hit the nail on the head.

This immediately left Chen Youcai speechless.

Truth be told, that was exactly the case. In fact, the main reason why the overall ranking of Huaxia Traditional Martial Arts is so low is that there are far too few genuine experts.

It was even once listed at the very bottom of combat sports. Of course, this "bottom" is in comparison to popular fighting styles; as for obscure ones like Sumo, they are still somewhat better than them. Even so, it is truly pathetic.

"Heh, Brother Zhang, do you really want our Huaxia Traditional Martial Arts to perform excellently here? I think it's quite fine as it is." Li Changsheng said with a meaningful tone.

Hearing this, Zhang Zhao was slightly taken aback, then immediately nodded, having realized something.

"You two really speak in an interesting way." Chen Youcai was a bit confused, shook his head, then re-examined the two men in front of him and suddenly laughed.

"Gentlemen, you are new here. According to custom, you need to show off a few moves. Are you interested in sparring with someone?"

Hearing this, Li Changsheng and Zhang Zhao exchanged a look, then both shook their heads.

Li Changsheng wanted to observe more. Since he had triggered a quest, he intended to focus on learning. Since everyone here was practicing without restraint, he would take the opportunity to observe as much as possible and steal whatever techniques he could.

Although this certainly didn't follow the rules, it was unlikely that anyone present would show their true trump cards. He just wanted to learn the basics to trigger the quest.

As for Zhang Zhao, he had absolutely no interest. He could be considered a martial arts fanatic, but the opponents he actually deemed worthy were ones he didn't want to provoke. There was Master Huo Yude and Brother Leg; the former was uncomfortable to fight, and the latter was even more uncomfortable.

"You two aren't scared, are you?" Seeing them shake their heads so decisively, Chen Youcai was amused.

He was a bit of a social butterfly, so he laughed with a sense of schadenfreude.

"Don't be afraid, everyone starts like this. You'll get used to it after staying for a while. How about I spar with you? Rest assured, I take good care of new friends and won't go too hard on you." Chen Youcai suggested.

Hearing this, the expressions of Li Changsheng and Zhang Zhao became rather strange.

"Forget it. We appreciate the kind offer, Brother Chen, but since I'm new here, I'll prioritize learning first." Li Changsheng cupped his hands in a salute, speaking the truth.

"Is that so..." Chen Youcai nodded in understanding. After all, the person in front of him did look young; he was likely a newcomer fresh out of the gate, probably recruited by the company because of some rare Legacy martial art. There were quite a few such people in the international combat circles here. This Genentech seemed to have a bit of a collecting habit.

His gaze then fell on Zhang Zhao. "Then, brother, do you want to give it a try? You look like you practice External Martial Arts; your frame is very thick!"

Hearing this, Zhang Zhao muttered to himself, then had to helplessly say, "No thanks, you can't handle it."

"What do you mean I can't handle it?"

"He says you can't handle a single palm strike from him." Li Changsheng shrugged.

Hearing this, Chen Youcai was stunned and couldn't help but start examining Zhang Zhao more closely.

"No way, brother. You don't look like an expert."

Indeed, Zhang Zhao's appearance looked very rugged and intimidating, but to an insider, it didn't seem like he had high-level skills. He didn't have much of the spirit of an Internal Martial Arts expert, and his aura wasn't very restrained. And this was the deceptive part of this guy Zhang Zhao. Li Changsheng didn't think he was any kind of expert at first, and didn't even expect him to be an expert in Hidden Power. One could only say that by appearance alone, he looked like an expert in Visible Power.

Zhang Zhao didn't waste any time. He walked straight to a punching bag nearby, didn't make any unnecessary movements, and simply stepped forward and delivered a swift palm strike.

Bang! Accompanied by a dull thud, Chen Youcai was stunned on the spot. He saw that Zhang Zhao's hand was already buried deep into the punching bag, and fine sand started flowing out from the gap. When he pulled his hand back, a large amount of sand gushed out.

"This..." Chen Youcai felt his throat go dry. He looked at the guy who had just been chatting happily with him and felt like he didn't know him anymore. This punching bag seemed to be a standard Boxing bag, and the quality of the bags here was guaranteed; usually, heavyweight boxers couldn't break them at all. As for himself, he wasn't particularly skilled in raw power; how could he possibly break a punching bag with such a casual palm strike?

"Well, little brother... why don't we spar?" Chen Youcai felt he had lost face, so he turned his gaze toward Li Changsheng, thinking that the young man in front of him would be easier to bully.

"He is even more powerful than me. If you aren't afraid of dying, you can try." At this moment, Zhang Zhao had walked back, and looking at this Chen Youcai, he really didn't know what to say. This guy must have often gotten a thrill from bullying newcomers, but out of everyone, he had to pick the two of them.

"Heh, brother, your physique is naturally suited for External Martial Arts. I admit you are an expert, but how could this little brother be even more powerful than you? I don't believe it." Chen Youcai truly didn't believe it; Li Changsheng was just too deceptive. Before making a move, Li Changsheng looked like a refined scholar, especially since his suit covered his internal muscles tightly, which made him even more misleading.

"Brother Chen, although Brother Zhang has just demonstrated his skill, I am truly afraid of hurting you, so let's just forget it." Li Changsheng smiled and shook his head.

"Sigh, what? Do you think I can't fight?"

It really is hard to persuade a damned soul with kind words. Zhang Zhao crossed his arms over his chest and looked at Chen Youcai with pity. Although he had never sparred with Li Changsheng, based on the test results Li Changsheng had achieved with Durant earlier, he could be certain that Li Changsheng was definitely a true expert in Internal Martial Arts. He had killed people and seen blood! As for this Chen Youcai, while he had some strength, he was far inferior to Li Changsheng.

Because Zhang Zhao had just broken the punching bag with a palm strike, they had already attracted quite a bit of attention. Now, hearing that there might be a spar, even more people became interested and gathered around, wanting to see what kind of style these newcomers had.
