"Quite interesting!"
Dongfang Mo's moves instantly piqued Ye Qiu's interest.
Ye Qiu had previously seen many so-called Tai Chi Grandmasters, always feeling that their Tai Chi fist techniques were nothing but showy and useless, leading him to sincerely lant that Huaxia's Tai Chi had lost its heritage.
Now, seeing Dongfang Mo's Tai Chi, Ye Qiu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
The movents were gentle and light, with strength both firm and supple!
Absolutely authentic Tai Chi!
Although Dongfang Mo made the first move, he didn't imdiately launch an offensive against Ye Qiu. Instead, he adopted a defensive posture, clearly intending to wait for Ye Qiu's move to respond accordingly.
Seeing this, Ye Qiu smiled faintly and imdiately struck!
He shifted his footsteps swiftly, closing the gap with Dongfang Mo in the blink of an eye, then sent both fists whistling out, leaving trails of afterimages in mid-air.
"What explosive force!"
Dongfang Mo was startled, not daring to be careless, continuously using his palms to intercept Ye Qiu's fists.
Their battle didn't cause the usual commotion, appearing quite ordinary, much like how ordinary cultivators would spar.
Especially on Dongfang Mo's side, the movents didn't seem to carry much power, almost giving a soft and weak impression.
However, this was not actually the case.
Just after exchanging a few blows, Ye Qiu couldn't help but hold Dongfang Mo in higher regard.
During his ti at the Shaolin Temple, Ye Qiu had discussed power control issues with Monk Duren and others, naturally making significant progress in power control.
However, upon seeing Dongfang Mo's Tai Chi, Ye Qiu realized what true power control ant.
Every move Dongfang Mo made wasn't with much force, yet Ye Qiu could clearly feel that each palm could easily smash a titanium alloy blast door to pieces.
This level of power control was truly the epito of four ounces deflecting a thousand pounds!
"It seems after the battle, I'll need to further explore this power control thod with him," Ye Qiu murmured to himself.
At his current level, achieving further advancent in realm was extrely difficult, but he was well aware that the inability to progress in realm didn't an that his strength couldn't be improved!
Refining power control is an effective way to enhance strength!
Realizing that Dongfang Mo's power control techniques far surpassed his own, Ye Qiu was filled with anticipation, even losing the mood to keep fighting, unintentionally increasing the strength of his punches.
More power!
Fist speed was faster!
In an instant, the dense barrage of fist shadows rushed at Dongfang Mo like a violent storm!
"This explosive power is really troubleso..."
Dongfang Mo repeatedly exclaid.
At the onset of the exchange, he recognized that Ye Qiu's combat style leaned towards brute force, which was a style he found relatively easy to handle.
After all, Tai Chi emphasizes overcoming hardness with softness, the study of borrowing and deflecting force.
In the past, Dongfang Mo could easily handle such opponents, rarely losing.
However, facing Ye Qiu, Dongfang Mo felt it wouldn't be that simple!
Ye Qiu's power seed like brute force yet also carried incredibly subtle control!
Every punch, with its terrifying explosive power, was focused almost on a single point!
This made it challenging for Dongfang Mo's Tai Chi to respond!
Because the explosive force at that mont was too intense, even if he could deflect and neutralize the force, the remaining power was still difficult for Dongfang Mo to withstand.
Yet, the surrounding juniors of the Dongfang Family didn't perceive these subtleties.
"I said it, our Clan Leader is sure to win. Judging by the current situation, it indeed seems so. That Ye Qiu, though strong, his attack style is very brutal, and our Clan Leader excels at countering such aggressive attack styles."
"That's right, our Clan Leader is a master of Tai Chi, and he completely restrains Ye Qiu's combat thod."
"I don't think there's any need to continue the match; with this kind of restraint, Ye Qiu stands no chance of winning."
The junior mbers of the Dongfang Family whispered among themselves, becoming more convinced of their previous thoughts, completely dismissing the idea that Ye Qiu's attack thod could defeat Dongfang Mo.
However, just when everyone thought Ye Qiu was bound to lose, suddenly!
Snap!
A crisp sound, and Dongfang Mo's palm slamd onto Ye Qiu's fist, instantly deflecting it to the side.
This move seed to give him the upper hand, but the mont he deflected Ye Qiu's fist, he felt an intensely violent force flood into his body like a dam break!
Poof!
Almost simultaneously, Dongfang Mo spat out a mouthful of blood, retreating several steps before stabilizing himself!
"What? What's going on?"
"Damn, did I see that right? Our Clan Leader is actually injured?"
"Oh my, how terrifying is Ye Qiu's power?"
"It's unimaginable—despite the obvious counter techniques, the Clan Leader still lost!"
Seeing Dongfang Mo injured, the surrounding juniors of the Dongfang Family were utterly shocked.
If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they wouldn't have believed it was true!
The Clan Leader, who had been in the Half-Step Divinity Transformation Realm for twenty years, lost to a young man in his twenties.
And he lost under circumstances where his techniques should have countered the match!
"Little brother, you've got amazing skills, I am impressed!"
After being injured, the Clan Leader naturally didn't plan to continue sparring, cupping his fists towards Ye Qiu, thinking this young man's talent is outstanding. While his combat style seed primarily about brute force, it actually involved extrely subtle power control. Such explosive force even made my Tai Chi unable to cope. If I could discuss this thoroughly with him, my strength would surely advance further.
"Clan Leader Dongfang, you're too kind."
Ye Qiu also cupped his hands in return, showing respect.
"You're too modest, little brother." Dongfang Mo smiled, eager to exchange Martial Path experiences with Ye Qiu, and then changed the subject, saying, "Actually, you ca at quite a good ti. I just so happen to have two jars of century-old fine wine and was looking for soone to share it with. I wonder if little brother is interested in drinking?"
"Since Clang Leader Dongfang has invited , it's my honor to accept," Ye Qiu gladly accepted Dongfang Mo's invitation.
Seeing Ye Qiu agree, Dongfang Mo beca very excited, imdiately gesturing with an invitation, "This way, little brother, let us retire to the courtyard for a good drink."
Dongfang Mo then turned and headed towards the courtyard, leading the way for Ye Qiu.
Ye Qiu followed quickly under envious gazes.
