The next day, Xue Xin first followed the Seventh Son to pay respects to Perfected Chong Yang. In front of his master's grave, Xue Xin inevitably cried again. After returning to Chongyang Palace, Xue Xin was called to the main hall, and the seven sons did not disperse either. Xue Xin knew that they were only going to discuss his own problems.
Qiu Chuji was still good at socializing, so he said first,"Junior Brother, it has been sixteen years since you came to the Chongyang Palace when you were young. All these years, my senior and junior brothers have often missed you.”Xue Xin could only say," Actually, this little brother misses you all very much too. Back then in the Double Yang Palace, this little brother was taken care of by all of you. Every time I think about it these years, I can't wait to immediately come to the Double Yang Palace to see all of you." However, my father is strict with my little brother. To be honest, this is the first time I've left home.”
Of course, no one took his words seriously. Qiu Chuji continued,"That's only natural. I heard that the Xue family is a famous family in the martial arts world. They must have very high expectations of the young master. His master had praised the Xue family's martial arts many times in the past. Now that his junior brother could leave home to travel, he must have inherited the family's teachings.”
Hearing this, Xue Xin understood a little in his heart. It turned out that these senior brothers wanted to test his martial arts. He said humbly," I'm ashamed to say this. I'm usually obsessed with the miscellaneous knowledge passed down in my family, but my martial arts aren't very good. Senior Brother Qiu is too kind."”"Little Junior Brother is really too humble. When you were still young, we knew that you were an extremely intelligent person." Moreover, Master also said that your future achievements in martial arts would be above us useless senior brothers.”Without waiting for Xue Xin to continue being humble, Ma Yu, who was beside him, also added,"Not bad. Miracle Doctor Xue is willing to let you out, Junior Brother. I think your martial arts must be quite mature. It's just nice that we've all opened our eyes.”
Xue Xin had no choice but to stand up and say,"Actually, I've been practicing alone all these years, and I don't know how my martial arts are doing. Since you guys are interested, I'll have to trouble you to give me some pointers.”
Qiu Chuji was the most passionate about martial arts, so he stood up without waiting for others to speak and said to Xue Xin,"I usually like to study martial arts the most in Chong Yang Palace. However, my aptitude is limited and my achievements are not high, so I don't dare to give you any pointers. It's not good for us to use weapons.”Xue Xin also said," It just so happens that this little brother usually prefers martial arts. He rarely knows how to use the sword. I have to thank Senior Brother Qiu for your understanding."”
Saying this, the few of them had already stood up and arrived at the martial arts practice field. After arriving at the venue, Xue Xin did not find a single person. Presumably, these senior brothers were fully prepared. If Xue Xin still didn't know what was going on at this time, then it would really be a waste of his good brain. "These senior brothers must have been deceived by my appearance and thought that my martial arts were not good enough. That's why they didn't even allow a junior disciple to come and watch today. Forget it, if you respect me, I will respect you. I will let you lose in a good way later.”The truth was similar to what he had guessed. After all, Xue Xin did not give the Quan Zhen Seven a good first impression.
Xue Xin's Minor Non-Phase Method was originally good at hiding himself, plus now his internal strength, whether in terms of quality or quantity, was even higher than Ma Yu, who was the highest here. The Quanzhen Seven Sons saw Xue Xin's thin and weak appearance. He did not have the external characteristics of a person who practiced high-tier internal arts at all. And back then, their master had placed the greatest expectations on this little junior brother, which was why they were so nervous and insisted on testing Xue Xin's skills.
Xue Xin understood all of this in the blink of an eye. He walked to the center of the martial arts field, turned around, and took a stance. Then, he said to Qiu Chuji in front of him,"This little brother's fist and leg skills are very rough, so I hope senior brother can give me some space so that I won't lose too badly.”Qiu Chuji smiled slightly and said,"It's fine. Junior Brother can attack with all your strength. Let Senior Brother see your true strength."”Qiu Chuji saw Xue Xin's cautious behavior and knew that he rarely fought with others, so it was inevitable that he was a little nervous. Therefore, he did not pay enough attention to Xue Xin, so he told him to attack with all his strength.
Xue Xin knew that Qiu Chuji would not make a move first, so he bowed and called out,"Be careful, Senior Brother." Then, Xue Xin slowly raised his right hand, his thumb and index finger gently touching each other as if he was holding a fresh flower. He smiled and slowly stretched out his left hand, flicking three times at Qiu Chuji. His fingers were extremely gentle. Every time his left hand flicked, it was as if he wanted to flick away the pearl on the fresh flower on his right hand, but he was afraid of shaking off the petals. The people around them were baffled, but Ma Yu's expression changed drastically and he shouted,""Junior Brother, be careful!" Qiu Chuji's reaction was even faster, but he had sensed the danger in advance with his many years of combat experience. He quickly moved to the side, and then felt three strong winds pass by where he was just now. If he hadn't dodged quickly, he would have been injured and defeated.
Xue Xin had only recently experienced a little of the true essence of this Flower-pinching Finger. He was able to use it freely. He was using it now because it was the first time he was sparring with his senior brothers, but he did not want to leave a bad impression on them. This Flower-pinching Finger did not seem to have the slightest bit of fierce fighting spirit, so it was the most suitable. However, he did not expect the Flower-pinching Finger to have such a big effect. It almost made Qiu Chuji fall. However, he did not know that the Shaolin Temple had been closed for a long time. Very few people in the Jianghu had seen the authentic Shaolin martial arts. The Flower-pinching Finger was one of the unique skills of the Shaolin Temple. Even in the temple, only the old monks with high prestige could use it. On one hand, Qiu Chuji had only heard of this Flower-pinching Finger and had never seen anyone use it before. On the other hand, he had underestimated Xue Xin, so he was caught off guard.
Cold sweat broke out on Qiu Chuji's back. He saw that Xue Xin's finger force was formless. Although the three finger forces were extremely fast, they immediately turned gentle when they reached the place where he was standing. Just looking at the skill of controlling internal energy, it was very rare. He didn't dare to stand far away and get beaten up, but quickly used his qinggong to get close to Xue Xin. At the same time, Qiu Chuji was still glad that his junior brother did not have much actual combat experience. Otherwise, he would have been able to knock him down if he had used Flower-pinching Finger again while he was in a daze.
In fact, he still underestimated Xue Xin. Xue Xin's reaction was very fast. He was indeed stunned when he saw Qiu Chuji being caught off guard by the Flower-pinching Finger, but he quickly reacted. At this time, Qiu Chuji had not turned around. However, he had already made up his mind to leave Qiu Chuji some face, so he suppressed the idea of chasing after him. Now that Qiu Chuji wanted to fight in close combat, Xue Xin also felt that it was better to go easy this way. Therefore, he did not use the Wave Subtle Steps to increase the distance. Instead, he went up and used another Shaolin skill, Prajna Palm, to fight with Qiu Chuji.
The people outside the arena saw that the two of them were in a stalemate for a while, and it was impossible to determine the winner in a short period of time, so they all looked at Ma Yu. Their inner force cultivation was not enough, so they did not see the dangerous situation just now. Ma Yu saw that the two of them were exchanging moves and knew that it was not a critical moment yet, so he explained to everyone,"Just now, Little Junior Brother pinched a flower with his right hand and flicked it with his left hand. What he used was Shaolin's secret Flower-pinching Finger. According to the legend of the Zen Sect, Sakyamuni held a golden polo flower in his hand and showed it to everyone at the Lingshan Meeting. Everyone was silent, but Kasyapa smiled. Shakyamuni knew that Kasyapa had already comprehended the mantra, so he said,"'I have the Hidden Eyes of Righteous Law, the Nirvana Dharmic Way, the Formless Reality Dharmic Way, and the Subtle Dharmic Way. I entrust it to Maha Kasyapa. This was the origin of the Flower-pinching Finger. The Flower-pinching Finger was considered top-notch among the various finger techniques of Shaolin's seventy-two ultimate techniques. The Shaolin masters had not walked in the martial arts world for a long time. In the present world, there were very few people who had heard of this finger technique, let alone seen it. I only heard the sound of the wind when my finger force was about to hit Junior Brother Qiu.”After listening to Ma Yu's explanation, everyone realized that the scene that they had seen earlier was peaceful, but it was actually very dangerous. They were all secretly shocked.
At this time, Xue Xin and Qiu Chuji had already fought more than ten rounds of punches and kicks. In the beginning, the two were afraid of hurting each other, so they didn't use much internal energy. However, after more than ten rounds, the two felt that the other party was much stronger than they imagined, so they gradually let go.
Qiu Chuji was now a great stele opener, open and aboveboard. At this moment, his internal strength was gradually released, stirring up waves of strong wind, causing Xue Xin's clothes to flutter. Xue Xin's moves in the Prajna Palm were subtle and mysterious. He intended to sharpen his moves, so he did not use many of his killing moves. His internal energy was also condensed and not released, only countering the moves. Now, Qiu Chuji's palm strikes were getting slower and slower. His moves were clumsy, but the palm wind was getting fiercer and fiercer. Now, it was already blowing until his face was aching. Therefore, he also increased the output of his internal strength, but contrary to Qiu Chuji's situation, the more internal strength he used, the smaller the palm wind he brought out. It gradually weakened until there was almost no wind sound now, but correspondingly, the weak palm wind contained a faint sound, and this subtle sound could be heard clearly in Qiu Chuji's palm wind.
Ma Yu, who was beside him, was surprised again.""If I'm not wrong, what Little Junior Brother is using now is the Prajna Palm of Shaolin's 72 Ultimate Skills. It's said that it's close to the peak of Shaolin's palm techniques. It seemed that this Xue family was highly respected by Master, but they also had true talent.”At this moment, Yuyang Ziwang Chuyi, who had been silent all this while, said something earth-shattering,""You only noticed the exquisite moves that little junior brother used, but you didn't notice that little junior brother's inner force cultivation seems to be above senior brother Qiu's.”Upon hearing this, the few of them remembered that the reason why they had come to test their little junior brother's martial arts today was because he seemed to not know martial arts at the beginning, which had aroused everyone's suspicion. And now, the internal strength that Little Junior Brother displayed was not even inferior to Qiu Chuji's. Everyone couldn't help but have a terrifying thought: Could it be that Little Junior Brother's inner force cultivation had already reached the realm of returning to simplicity? Just a moment ago, he was still doubting whether Xue Xin knew martial arts, but now he was beginning to overestimate him. However, this could not be blamed on the Seven Sons of Quan Zhen Sect. Who asked Xue Xin to not show any signs of martial arts at the beginning because of the Minor Non-Phase Method, but now, they were frightened by the Shaolin unique skills that Xue Xin used.
The few people on this side were slightly distracted. They only heard a loud shout coming from the arena, interrupting everyone's thoughts. The battle situation on the other side had changed a lot. It turned out that Qiu Chuji could not take it down for a long time, but he was a little anxious. He imagined that when he went down, he would look like he did not care about guiding the younger generation, but he was almost beaten down at the beginning. Although he had already reacted when Ma Yu reminded him, Qiu Chuji still felt that he had taken advantage of Xue Xin. Now, he had fought with Xue Xin for almost fifty rounds, but he had not even touched the corner of the other party's clothes. Moreover, he could vaguely feel that there was still a great power in his Little Junior Brother's hand. If they continued to fight like this, there was really a possibility that they would lose. At that time, it would be difficult for them to meet others. Thinking of this, Qiu Chuji became more and more anxious, and he couldn't help but exert all his strength. With a loud shout, his palm slowly pushed towards Xue Xin's face, but with every step forward, his palm grew bigger. When it was almost in front of Xue Xin, it was almost twice as big.
Xue Xin saw Qiu Chuji's hand and knew that it was just an attack that he had gathered all his strength, but it was not easy to receive. If he were to receive it forcefully, he was afraid that he would suffer internal injuries if his internal strength was scattered. However, if he used soft strength to resolve it, he was afraid that he would hurt Qiu Chuji's hand. At this instant, Xue Xin could not be bothered to hide his strength anymore. He quickly withdrew his palm power and took a big step forward amidst the crowd's exclamations.
With this step, the sound of silk being torn and bones being moved could be heard. Xue Xin had suddenly turned from a weak scholar into a burly man with a big waist. Qiu Chuji's palm that was about to hit Xue Xin's face had landed solidly on Xue Xin's chest. The people watching the battle were stunned, but what they heard was not the sound of bones breaking. Instead, it was a loud bang, more like the sound of metal clashing. Then, they saw Xue Xin retreat step by step. With every step he took, an explosive sound was heard. Then, the green bricks on the ground where he stepped on were crushed into pieces. Xue Xin only stopped retreating after retreating a dozen steps, and his body returned to its skinny and small appearance. If it wasn't for the red flush that flashed across his face and the ruined clothes on his body, everyone would have suspected that their senior and junior brothers were hallucinating.
