NOVPUBThe Maka students who got the oak leaves hesitated for a moment, then glanced at Du Ma "s determined face, and quickly retreated with the oak leaves, followed by several companions.
However, many Maka students still chose to stay and looked warily at Guan Xinyin , Luo Kaiyuan , and others.
Du Ma didn't try to persuade them further, but just sighed.
Seeing people leaving, Chen Chuan stood still. He didn't care about the oak leaves, and with Du Ma blocking him, he couldn't stop those people.
Guan Xinyin and Luo Kaiyuan also didn't move, but stared at Du Ma and those Maka students .
Chen Chuan didn't take the initiative to attack. If these people, including Du Ma , were willing to confront them here, there was no need to rush. The longer the time dragged on, the more people would arrive later. It was the Maka side that should be anxious.
After Du Ma saw the students behind him run far away and ride away on two-wheeled motorized vehicles, he finally didn't wait any longer.
He stretched out his hands as if a bird spreading its wings, and the muscles on his body pulsed rhythmically as he opened his hands. The shimmering light on them felt like water flowing smoothly, especially the fingers, which moved gently as if plucking some tangible strings.
His breathing and movements were accompanied by a peculiar rhythm, as if he was playing music with his body.
At this moment, Guan Xinyin and Luo Kaiyuan suddenly felt uncomfortable because each muscle expansion and pulsation of Du Ma "s limbs landed precisely in the gaps of their breathing patterns.
The key to a martial artist "s strength lies in breathing. The opponent accurately placed the nodes at the junction of breathing, which meant that they could launch an attack on them in this gap.
This made them involuntarily want to avoid and adjust, but no matter how they changed, the rhythm of Du Ma "s movements would accurately capture it, which instead made their breathing more and more chaotic, and their chests and abdomen gradually became stuffy. 𝓷ℴ𝓿𝓹𝓾𝒷.𝓬𝓸𝓂
Du Ma didn't look at them; his eyes were only fixed on Chen Chuan in front of him. A major feature of Industry Pulse Studies is to feel the enemy's changes, guide and control the enemy.
The blood flow, breathing patterns, and even the direction of strength transmission of everyone here are within the perception of his mutated tissue. This is equivalent to the opponent being transparent to him, allowing him to rationally allocate techniques and strength, thereby grasping the trend of the battle.
Sometimes, if the gap between the two sides is relatively large, there is no need to even fight; the opponent can injure themselves due to disordered breathing patterns.
However, Chen Chuan was an exception. Although he had tried to induce Chen Chuan "s breathing pattern just now, Chen Chuan remained unmoved, maintaining his original breathing. This instead put a burden on him, like trying to pull a line drawn on paper—visible but impossible to pick up.
At this time, because of the initial shooting and subsequent fighting, no one was coming and going on the entire street. It became empty from front to back, with only these people standing here. However, in the buildings on both sides of the street, some people were carefully watching the movement on the street through the cracks in the curtains and doors.
Seeing that he couldn't control Chen Chuan , Du Ma knew that he couldn't continue like this.
This place is only a ten-minute journey from the city center. The Patrol Bureau must know the news now and should be transferring people over, and the teachers of Wuyi Academy may also arrive at any time.
He didn't have much time left.
If possible, he didn't want to be caught. He needed to dispose of the person blocking him as soon as possible, so he walked towards Chen Chuan , deciding to solve the problem with fists and feet.
Seeing him coming, Chen Chuan didn't retreat but also stepped forward to meet him. After the two approached, he launched an attack first, kicking at the opponent. This kick was so fast that even from Du Ma "s perspective, it was threatening enough.
So he lowered himself to dodge and had already made a gathering power for a forward charge, but then he realized that it was a changing line kick. He immediately tilted his body slightly and raised his hand to block it upward, immediately feeling a strong internal energy transmitted from Chen Chuan "s leg.
Although he received this move, he felt that internal energy constantly permeating inward, as if someone was constantly pushing himself there. Under the confrontation, he couldn't make any other movements for a while.
After Chen Chuan immobilized him in place with one kick, he took a step forward as he put his foot down and reached out to grab Du Ma "s raised forearm. Under normal circumstances, this could be followed up with grappling and wrestling, but he didn't do that. Instead, he tightened his five fingers!
The tearing force of Zheng San Shou[-]'s "Tearing the Curtain" isn't only used on the face. Tugging with five fingers is enough to tear flesh, but when he exerted this force, he felt the muscles on Du Ma "s arm tighten, like a tire suddenly filled with air, becoming slippery and tough, and his fingers were actually bounced outward.
Immediately afterward, he saw the other party's hand pierce out, with five fingers together stabbing towards his chest, like a Poison Snake darting, with extremely fast speed. Seeing that it was too late to block, he leaned slightly, exerted strength in his body, and took the initiative to bump into it.
Sensing something was wrong, Du Ma "s fingers, which were originally stabbing, suddenly opened and turned into a palm pushing outward, resisting his forward momentum. The other hand slapped away the hand that was trying to grab again, and he took the opportunity to grab Chen Chuan "s chest clothes, ready to exert force and pull the opponent's center of gravity, but Chen Chuan kicked his ankle from below, causing him to immediately lift his foot.
But with this dodge, the strength above could not be exerted. At this moment, he saw Chen Chuan reaching out to try to grab his fingers. Having seen Chen Chuan "s internal energy on his fingers just now, he knew that if he was caught, the places without muscle and mutated tissue support would definitely be torn apart with one grab. He quickly let go and retreated.
As he retreated, Chen Chuan immediately pressed forward, with his hands drawing arcs, heading straight for his ears. He retreated with a low stance. Here, he seemed to have used a skill, actually retreating two steps in an instant. His elbows contracted inward, his knees bent, and his whole body contracted inward like a spring, then suddenly released, hitting a spinning force diagonally upward.
Chen Chuan greeted it with his arm.
But the result of this collision was that Chen Chuan stood still, while Du Ma staggered back a few steps. This made the Maka students watching from behind show an unbelievable expression.
Du Ma was a very strong young teacher in their academy; otherwise, he wouldn't have been sent out to lead the team this time. He was actually forced back in a head-on confrontation with a Wuyi student ?
They couldn't accept this result no matter what, feeling that something must be wrong. The reality and the emotional inclination in their hearts instantly plunged them into a contradictory emotion of anxiety and fear.
Guan Xinyin and Luo Kaiyuan didn't have so many thoughts. They had personally experienced or witnessed Du Ma "s power just now, and Chen Chuan had actually repelled this person, and besides being surprised, a sense of admiration arose in their hearts.
Chen Chuan looked at the retreating Du Ma , knowing that he hadn't actually won this punch.
The only difference was that, on the surface, he had gained the upper hand in this hard confrontation.
However, after the confrontation just now, he had almost understood. In terms of pure strength, he might not be as good as this person who had reached...
In that case, he could completely use the advantage of his fast reaction speed to attack against attack, taking the initiative to exchange injuries for injuries.
So he straightened up and continued to walk forward. In the eyes of everyone, as he took the initiative to press on Du Ma , he undoubtedly generated a pressure.
Looking at Chen Chuan unharmed, Du Ma showed a look of surprise and also some admiration, thinking silently, "Talent..."
Not only was it the last collision between the two, but almost every moment between their exchanges, they were using internal energy. It stands to reason that generally...
This is also...
But Chen Chuan seemed to completely break this rule. The only explanation was that he possessed a talent that was difficult for ordinary people to match.
He felt very uncomfortable. Such a talent could be encountered in the Wuyi Branch of Da Shun Republic, but they seemed unable to find such a person even after searching the whole country.
After Chen Chuan took two steps, he suddenly accelerated forward and punched out. Du Ma saw it very clearly. He retreated slightly, avoiding the distance, and at the same time, he kicked Chen Chuan "s head. However, the latter ignored it, allowing the kick to hit him, while he continued to press forward, slamming his backhand hard into Du Ma "s chest.
Du Ma "s chest felt suffocated, his breathing was obstructed, and he knew something was wrong. He quickly used both hands to block and parry, constantly blocking the subsequent series of punches, elbows, and knee strikes that Chen Chuan was throwing, and he retreated again and again.
On the other side, Nali , who was fighting with Zhuang Zhi , forced his opponent back by enduring a punch and glanced back, also seeing Du Ma being suppressed. He was a little anxious and confused. Why wasn't Teacher Du Ma using his best Maka Industry Pulse Fist but instead using martial combat moves that were biased towards Da Shun? Wasn't this giving up his strengths?
Du Ma was actually very helpless. If he could use that method, he would have used it long ago. He could feel Chen Chuan "s aura, blood flow, and even the strength of each strike, but the strength and speed that the latter actually showed were completely different, making it impossible for him to make a real judgment.
He was also very uncomfortable because after twenty or thirty years of training, he had become accustomed to using his senses to coordinate his strength and control his opponents. Now, encountering a person whose senses were one thing and whose actual performance was another, his brain knew what to do, but his body always took the "reasonable" response first, which made him have to pay attention and correct his habits when making a move, always being a step slower, which was very fatal.
Moreover, even if Chen Chuan "s strength wasn't as good as his, it wasn't much worse. His reaction and speed seemed to be faster than him. Even though he hadn't consumed much energy and didn't have any injuries, he seemed to be the one being suppressed.
At this time, he realized that he might not be able to escape, but his students shouldn't have such a result. He must give them a chance to escape. Perhaps only by doing that would he bear all the guilt.
Thinking of this, a look of determination appeared in his eyes. After choosing to fight Chen Chuan hard again, he retreated far away with the force, then took a deep breath, crossed his hands in front of him, and the muscles on his body suddenly wriggled.
In just a moment, green veins appeared on the surface of his body, like the thin stems of leaves. At the same time, his body became red and hot, transmitting a sense of danger outward.
