Chapter 995: Big Flying Knee

Sure enough, just as Sun Nian said, Wang An's moves were becoming more and more skillful, while Bai Xiuwei was always subconsciously using his family's martial arts moves.

Actually, this is also a normal human reaction; after all, the moves practiced in the past might have already formed muscle memory, while the Eighteen Grappling Hands practiced now don't feel as smooth as the previous ones.

Of course, it's not to say that Bai Xiuwei's family martial arts aren't good enough, it's just that their lethality isn't as powerful as the Eighteen Grappling Hands, and the most critical reason is that Bai Xiuwei hasn't mastered his family martial arts.

Therefore, after the two sparred for another dozen moves, Wang An spotted an opportunity and directly used a move of "Kick Leg Lock Throat" to kick Bai Xiuwei down.

This was also the first time Bai Xiuwei had fallen to the ground.

One has to admit that Bai Xiuwei's family martial arts are still very powerful, because when Wang An used "Two Dragons Play with a Pearl" wanting to press the arm and poke the eyes, his left wrist was locked by Bai Xiuwei, and then Bai Xiuwei took advantage of the momentum to retreat, directly dragging Wang An down.

I don't know what this move is called, but it gives people a feeling of "four ounces moving a thousand pounds."

Just like that, Wang An also fell to the ground once.

Next, the two exchanged blows, and Wang An fell to the ground again, which was also Wang An's second time falling.

According to the rules, if one side falls three times in a row, they lose, which means if Wang An falls one more time, Wang An will be the runner-up.

To tell the truth, Wang An's foundation is still too thin.

Although Wang An used to be a drifter who often fought, in the past, fighting relied entirely on bravery, as well as pickaxe handles and bricks in his hands.

Although Wang An has practiced diligently for a month now, fighting a half-practitioner like Bai Xiuwei with bare hands is truly a bit strenuous.

To put it bluntly, although Wang An's moves are becoming more skillful, his basic skills—that is, arm strength, wrist strength, and finger strength—simply cannot unleash the power that the Eighteen Grappling Hands should have.

As the saying goes, "Practice martial arts, first practice the skills," and this "skill" refers to basic skills.

There was one more chance to fall, so after Wang An got up, he became extremely careful, mainly to avoid being locked by the opponent.

Because after falling twice, Wang An discovered that Bai Xiuwei's strength was about the same as his, perhaps even a bit worse, but Bai Xiuwei's base was more solid than his.

As long as his arms or legs were locked, the opponent would instantly make him lose his center of gravity, thereby falling to the ground.

After another dozen moves, both Wang An and Bai Xiuwei were sweating. Both wiped their faces at the same time and rushed towards each other again.

You have to say, sweating sometimes has its benefits, because after a few moves, Wang An was locked again by Bai Xiuwei, who had rushed up. This time, Bai Xiuwei had grabbed Wang An's back of the hand.

But just when Wang An was about to be thrown down by Bai Xiuwei, Bai Xiuwei suddenly lost his grip and let go.

The reason was that Wang An had previously used the back of his hand to wipe the sweat on his forehead, causing Wang An's back of the hand to be very slippery.

Wang An seized the opportunity to use a "Gate-Blocking Throw," also known as "Dragon Girl Looks in the Mirror," successfully throwing Bai Xiuwei to the ground.

This was Bai Xiuwei's second time falling.

It has to be said that this time Wang An was able to throw Bai Xiuwei down, there was an element of luck involved.

But there was no help for it; luck is also a part of strength. On a real battlefield, who the hell cares about this or that? As long as you can kill the opponent, that's all that matters.

Just like that, because both of them only had one chance to fall left, both became nervous.

It has to be said that this situation truly made both sides of the battle quite anxious.

Bai Xiuwei believed that as long as he could get one chance to lock Wang An, he could win the championship and win that 50-yuan prize money.

And Wang An believed that as long as he wasn't locked by Bai Xiuwei, the outcome was still uncertain.

However, Bai Xiuwei was always willing to take a few hits just to get close to Wang An, and Wang An truly couldn't do anything about him.

But in general, it wasn't like what Sun Nian said, that Wang An had a greater chance of winning; in fact, Bai Xiuwei's chance of winning was still a bit greater.

Just like that, the two probed for a long time, but neither took the initiative to attack.

Just at this moment, Zhang Shuya couldn't help but say:

"Can you two be quick? Why are you dragging it out like this? Everyone is watching here, don't you see?"

With the Lingdao speaking, the two had to take action.

However, Wang An's big eyes rolled, and he didn't choose to use the moves from the Eighteen Grappling Hands, but instead used the move his father-in-law Mu Hua had taught him, which was also the most unexpected move—the Big Flying Knee!

That's right, Mu Hua had taught Wang An three moves in total: Iron Mountain Lean, Side Kick, and Big Flying Knee.

Iron Mountain Lean is using the shoulder to desperately ram the opponent.

Side Kick is unexpected, kicking sideways, and you can kick wherever you want.

Big Flying Knee is a leap in the air, lifting the leg to use the knee to ram the opponent's face or chest.

These three moves sound simple, but they emphasize speed and force-generating techniques.

Especially the two moves "Iron Mountain Lean" and "Big Flying Knee," which require speed to increase force.

Otherwise, if the speed isn't fast, you won't accumulate enough force, and if the force is insufficient, using these two moves is useless.

Therefore, just as the two were approaching each other, Wang An suddenly accelerated, followed by a leap, and his right knee rammed towards Bai Xiuwei's face.

One has to admit that Bai Xiuwei's reaction was still very fast.

Just after Wang An successfully jumped up, Bai Xiuwei subconsciously stopped his steps, and while tilting his upper body to the right, his right leg also took a step horizontally to the right, and he even stretched out both hands in the shape of "Double Palms Pushing the Stele."

The reason Bai Xiuwei wanted to dodge to the right was because Bai Xiuwei's right side was Wang An's left side.

It was just that what Bai Xiuwei didn't expect was that when Mu Hua taught Wang An this move, he had instructed Wang An that after jumping up, he must keep an eye on the direction the opponent dodges.

Because in this situation, as long as it's a normal person, they will definitely dodge in the opposite direction, so Wang An must change legs in time before landing.

Wang An might not remember other things, but regarding fighting, he remembered it quite attentively; in local dialect, that's called "remembering it firmly."

Therefore, although Bai Xiuwei's dodge was very timely, Wang An immediately switched his legs and rammed towards Bai Xiuwei with his left knee.

This ram, although it didn't hit the center of Bai Xiuwei's chest, it hit Bai Xiuwei's palms and his left chest.

Wang An's body weight was over 160 jin, plus the acceleration during running, and the inertia from the air diagonally downward—these three forces were almost all superimposed on Wang An's left knee.

One can imagine just how great this force was.

Therefore, in the eyes of the onlookers, Wang An was like a human cannonball, directly ramming Bai Xiuwei to the ground.

Bai Xiuwei still wanted to crawl up to fight again, but Wang An had already said to the cheering crowd:

"Luck, luck, this was purely luck on my part!"

Thanks to "Emperor of the Great Empire" for the tip, thank you, thank you!

Wishing you, big brother, great wealth every year and good luck every day!
