I, Su Qingyang, can take care of him,” said Su Qingyang, his face full of indignation, almost rushing up to confront Aoki Hisaaki on the spot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yujia, the pure and innocent girl, was also clearly displeased, “He’s simply bullying too much!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The competition hasn’t even started yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wants the National Arts Gym to close its doors for good from now on?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s just daydreaming!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chenfeng observed Yamamoto Kouta and Huo Qiming standing in opposition and judged from the auras they emitted that Yamamoto Kouta was probably a notch stronger than Huo Qiming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the two really came to blows, the person likely to win was Yamamoto Kouta with a probability of over ninety percent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, martial arts competitions aren’t won by strength alone; practical experience also plays a significant role.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ever-expressionless Huo Qiming glanced at Aoki Hisaaki, then set his gaze firmly on Yamamoto Kouta, “Yamamoto Kouta, don’t you think your disciple is talking too much?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is my National Arts Gym, not inside your dojo.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yamamoto Kouta revealed an indifferent smile and said in Huaxia language, “Huo Qiming, what my disciple means is also what I mean.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you don’t agree to close the National Arts Gym today, then let’s have a match!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As long as you can win against me, your National Arts Gym can continue to operate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But if you lose to me, I will personally throw you out of the National Arts Gym’s door, so everyone can see how ‘impressive’ Huaxia martial arts really is.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yamamoto Kouta stressed the word “impressive,” the implication of which was crystal clear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Huo Qiming, did you hear that?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Do you think you are a match for my master?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To avoid humiliating yourself, I think you should tuck your tail and run away right now!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, losing to my master in front of your disciples, wouldn’t that be such an embarrassing thing?” With the backing of Yamamoto Kouta, Aoki Hisaaki taunted Huo Qiming without restraint.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aoki Hisaaki’s repeated insults towards Huo Qiming completely enraged the Huaxia Country students present.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They all had the blood of the Yan and Huang descendants flowing in their veins;

at least for now, Master Huo seems to be at a disadvantage.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing Ye Chenfeng speak so, Su Qingyang immediately became unhappy, “Are you even a Huaxia Country national?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boosting the morale of others while undermining our own pride?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Listening to you, it’s as if you yourself are a martial arts master.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chenfeng was just stating the truth, but it had caused Su Qingyang’s displeasure, so he chose not to speak anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the center of the National Arts Hall, Yamamoto Kouta said with a smile, “Huo Qiming, I didn’t expect you to have some skill!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, in my eyes, that’s all the ability you have.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I, Yamamoto Kouta, will ensure that every Huaxia martial arts dojo disappears from the Island Nation.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huo Qiming’s expression grew even more solemn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Based on their first encounter, he had deduced that Yamamoto Kouta’s strength exceeded his own, but today he had no escape.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was representing the face of all martial artists from Huaxia Country.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A loss wouldn’t just be his own disgrace but also a loss of face for Huaxia’s martial arts community.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, no matter what, he had to do his utmost in the match against Yamamoto Kouta.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Huo Qiming, try taking another move from me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yamamoto Kouta launched another offensive against Huo Qiming, knowing that the latter’s arm, which had blocked his kick, would be numb and immobile for a short time, meaning Huo Qiming could only use one arm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, Yamamoto Kouta seized this opportunity to press his advantage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Huo Qiming was slightly less powerful than Yamamoto Kouta, he was no slouch, relying on his rich combat experience to dodge the attacks just in the nick of time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This caused Yamamoto Kouta to become increasingly impatient, no matter how fast his attacks were, they were always dodged by Huo Qiming in the end.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the side, Aoki Hisaaki saw that Huo Qiming was only dodging and not attacking, he quickly jeered out loud, “Huo Qiming, is this what they call Huaxia Country kung fu?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Do you only know how to dodge?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seems Huaxia kung fu is nothing special after all!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You, Huo Qiming, are just a turtle, shrinking your head back into your shell.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aoki Hisaaki intended to provoke Huo Qiming with his taunts, hoping to force him and his master into proving themselves in the duel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under the current circumstances, if Huo Qiming dared to clash head-on with Yamamoto Kouta, he would certainly be the one to fall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aoki Hisaaki’s sudden provocation distracted Huo Qiming for a mere moment, and that brief lapse was all Yamamoto Kouta needed to land a punch squarely on Huo Qiming’s chest with all his strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After taking a heavy punch to the chest, Huo Qiming staggered backward, a surge of blood rushing up within him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He suppressed the blood that welled up in his throat, swallowing it forcibly down to his stomach.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stood there on sheer willpower, resisting the urge to collapse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, he knew that he was defeated today, so what should his next move be?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could he really let Yamamoto Kouta throw him out of the National Arts Hall?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His pride simply couldn’t stand such a loss!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(To be continued.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Qidian (qidian.com) to cast your recommendation votes and monthly votes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Your support is my greatest motivation.)\u003C\u002Fp>",1507,"2026-05-30T17:53:09.591Z","2026-06-01T04:31:50.278Z",1,"novelbin.me","4801e454483ad79de523e08556f854ea8d5bf18f5ddea7e4dc82db6ce6b3c5a1","the-strongest-dandy-in-the-city-chapter-337","the-strongest-dandy-in-the-city-chapter-335",2367,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-strongest-dandy-in-the-city-cover.jpg"]
