"Humph! I'll naturally find out if it was poisoned.”" Hmph!" Tang Shan snorted and continued," Originally, according to the rules of the arena of life and death, I could have killed you today. However, I didn't want to do that. I just want you to live well so that you can see the despicable actions of the Japanese samurai.”
After saying that, Tang Shan no longer paid any attention to Akutagawa Ryuichi, who looked ashamed and angry, and jumped off the ring. The disciples of the Fine Martial Sect quickly surrounded him, their faces glowing with pride. At the same time, the crowd also gathered around Tang Shan. There were people congratulating him, there were people who admired him, and there were also people who wanted to acknowledge him as their teacher. It could be said that there was a hustle and bustle.
However, Tang Shan defeated Akutagawa Ryuichi with two punches, which inevitably disappointed some people who wanted to watch the show. They had thought that this decisive battle would be very exciting and had been looking forward to it for a long time. They did not expect it to end so hastily.
In fact, this was how a fight was like. Every move was a heavy punch. Every move was meant to quickly knock down the enemy. The showy exchange was a dance technique, not a martial art.
As the saying goes, outsiders watch the show, while professionals watch the tricks. Those who had been looking forward to the fight for a long time were undoubtedly all laymen.
Although this battle ended hastily, everyone could foresee that the impact of this battle would definitely sweep across the country and even extend overseas. In a sense, this battle was not just a duel between Jingwu Sect and Hongkou Dojo. It had risen to the level of a confrontation between China and Japan, and even the European and American powers. It was also this battle that awakened the dormant confidence of the people of China and had a profound impact on future generations.
Of course, these were all things for the future.
Following that, under the control of the Shanghai Police Department, the crowd gradually dispersed in an orderly manner. The celebrities and VIPs from all walks of life in Shanghai also left through the exclusive passage opened by the military and police. It was not until the afternoon that Tang Shan returned to the Jingwu Sect with his junior brothers after receiving wave after wave of congratulations.
When they returned to the Jingwu Sect, the junior brothers were still immersed in the joy of victory. Each of them was valiant and spirited, like a big rooster that had won a battle. They were endlessly proud. Pride and pride. Tang Shan did not dampen their spirits because he knew that it had been a long time since the Jingwu Sect had been so arrogant. He was too arrogant, and he was appropriately arrogant. It didn't hurt to be arrogant.
While his junior brothers were all extremely excited, Tang Shan was calm. As soon as he returned to the Jingwu Sect, he called Huo Ting 'en and Chen Zhen to the study.
Tang Shan went straight to the point." After today's competition, the result is obvious. Akutagawa Ryuichi is no match for Master. There must be something fishy about Master's death."”
Tang Shan then looked at Chen Zhen and Huo Ting 'en, obviously asking for their opinion.
" Senior Brother," Huo Ting 'en said," Father's health was already very poor before he went to the competition. He had been coughing very badly. I even saw him cough up blood a few times. With his health condition at that time, he would definitely be doomed if he went to the competition."”
"But Master has always been in good health," Chen Zhen said."Why did he suddenly fall ill?”
"I suspect that someone poisoned Master, and the person who poisoned him is in our Jingwu Sect.”Tang Shan said.
Huo Ting 'en and Chen Zhen were shocked when they heard this. They looked at Tang Shan in unison.
"Eldest Senior Brother, are you saying that there is a traitor in our Jingwu Sect?”Huo Tingen found it hard to believe.
" I can't rule out this possibility," Tang Shan said seriously." I know my master well. He has never had any special hobbies, so if there's a problem, it's within our sect's ranks."”
Huo Tingen pondered for a moment and guessed,""Could it be Uncle Gen? He's always in charge of dad's food.”
" That's not possible," Chen Zhen retorted." Uncle Gen is in charge of our meals. If he poisoned us, Master would be in trouble, and so would the other brothers."”
"No, it's possible!" Tang Shan said," I just remembered that Master has a little hobby. He likes to eat the dried crocodiles from Nanyang. If he wanted to poison Master, he would definitely start from that. Moreover, Uncle Gen is in charge of Master's food, so there's a high possibility."”Tang Shan then turned to Huo Ting 'en.""Tingen, go get the crocodile jerky that Master didn't finish. I have a friend who works at the British embassy. I'll ask him to get someone to test it.”
"What, what's a test?" Huo Tingen had never been abroad before, so he was a little confused by the term.
"The test is to see if the dried crocodile was poisoned," Tang Shan explained.”
"Oh, okay, I'll go get it now.”
" Also," Tang Shan added," before the test results are out, it's best not to make this matter public, so as not to alert the enemy."”
"Yes, sir!"
After Huo Tingen left, Tang Shan said to Chen Zhen,""Chen Zhen, don't you find this result a little unacceptable?”
"Yeah, we grew up eating Uncle Gen's cooking," Chen Zhen said.”
" I don't want it to be him," Tang Shan sighed." I believe that Uncle Gen has his reasons for poisoning him." So I suspect that someone else is behind Uncle Gen's back.”
"Not bad!" Chen Zhen's eyes lit up.""That makes sense."
" So…" Tang Shan looked at Chen Zhen."Next, I want you to pay attention to Uncle Gen quietly and see if anyone comes into contact with him.”
"Alright, leave this task to me.”Chen Zhen said solemnly.
A moment later, Huo Ting 'en brought back Huo Yuanjia's leftover crocodile jerky. Tang Shan put it away and reminded the two of them to be careful before leaving Jingwu Sect with the crocodile jerky.
Tang Shan's destination was, of course, the British Embassy. Originally, he did not have any friends who worked in the British Embassy. However, after completing the third main mission, he received a medal of the Earl of Great Britain. The main effect of this medal was to grant the host the status of an Earl. Moreover, it was personally conferred by the British Royal Family.
If this effect had been used before Tang Shan transmigrated, it would have been useless. However, it was very different in the era of " Elite Martial Hero." At this time, the United Kingdom was still a superpower in the world, colonizing more than half of the Earth. With this identity, Tang Shan could do whatever he wanted on Earth.
However, although this medal solved Tang Shan's urgent need, Tang Shan did not like it very much. Although Tang Shan was not a nationalistic patriot, he still had the blood of the Chinese people in his veins. Just think about it, a dignified citizen of China actually had to rely on a foreign identity to be able to survive in their own country. It had to be said that this was the sorrow of the people and the sorrow of this era.
On the way to the British Embassy, Tang Shan turned on the unlimited system again. At this moment, Main Mission 3 had been replaced with Main Mission 4. The display was as follows:
[Main Mission 4: The death of Huo Yuanjia, the head of the Elite Martial School, is very strange. As his disciple, he should investigate the cause of his death and then announce it to the world to clear his name and comfort his soul in heaven!]
[Mission time limit: Three days.]
[Mission reward: 300 experience points]
[Mission Failure: Randomly demote one martial art]
In fact, Tang Shan had already known the cause of Huo Yuanjia's death because he was familiar with the plot. However, the System's arrangements were a little out of the ordinary, so he had no choice but to follow the established procedures step by step.
Then, Tang Shan opened the exchange module. He thought for a moment and then exchanged for a grandmaster-level martial arts experience book without hesitation. He originally had 550 experience points left, and after defeating Akutagawa Ryuichi, he had gained another 500 points, making a total of 1050 points. Now that he had exchanged for a 1000-point grandmaster-level martial arts experience book, his experience points were immediately used up.
Tang Shan didn't feel any pain because this was a decision he made after careful consideration.
"System, please help me upgrade the Shadow Fist to Grandmaster Level.”
"As you wish!"
This time, with the Grandmaster Huo Family Fist as the foundation, there was no limit to the upgrade of the Shadow Fist.
"Ding! [Shadow Fist has been upgraded successfully. Currently, the host's Shadow Fist is at Grandmaster Level. Host's Constitution 50, Strength 75, Agility 75, Spirit 25. Please take note!]”
Once again, Tang Shan felt that divine and clear artistic conception. It was as if he had stepped into the door of martial arts. The inside and outside of the door were two completely different levels. He knew that this was the difference between a Grandmaster and a master.
Tang Shan's intuition told him that he had completely surpassed his master, Huo Yuanjia. If he fought Chen Zhen again, he would be able to defeat Chen Zhen in 30 moves at most.
At this moment, Tang Shan's four attributes had also been further improved. The display was as follows:
[Host: Tang Shan]
[Age: 25]
[Martial Grade: Martial Essence]
[Teacher: Huo Yuanjia (First Disciple of Jingwu Sect)]
[Skills: Chinese Medicine (Beginner), English (Proficient)]
[Martial Arts: Huo Family Fist (Grandmaster), Shadow Fist (Grandmaster), Free Combat (Master)]
[Constitution: 204 (Normal people fluctuate around 100)]
[Strength: 322 (Normal people have around 100)]
[Agility: 276 (Normal people would float around 100)]
[Spirit: 153 (Normal people have around 100)]
After this period of grinding and exploration. Suo, Tang Shan also had a new understanding of the four attributes. Physique represented a person's physical fitness, mainly in terms of endurance. Strength, obviously, represented the maximum strength that an individual could output. The unit was in kilograms. In other words, Tang Shan's full-strength punch could hit 322 kg. If he combined it with the Huo Family Fist and the Shadow Fist, his strength would be greatly increased. Agility represented a person's reaction speed, which included all aspects such as nerve reflexes. As for Spirit, this attribute was a little mysterious. The most direct manifestation was that Tang Shan felt that his perception had become much stronger.
Turning off the identity module, Tang Shan muttered,""System, I want to ask, why is the highest exchange in the exchange market only for grandmaster-level martial arts experience books?”
The System replied," Yes, the Grandmaster level is the highest realm of martial arts. This realm is also known as the realm of enlightenment. At this realm, every move and technique is close to the Dao. If you have comprehended it, you have comprehended it. If you haven't comprehended it, you haven't comprehended it. It's all up to the host to experience it."”
"I see!" As he communicated with the system, Tang Shan felt as if he had seen through the clouds. He had benefited a lot.
At the same time, his rickshaw arrived at the entrance of the British Embassy.
