Clap, clap, clap ~
A crisp applause came from not far away and entered Su Yang and Qin Fang's ears.
The two of them looked towards the source of the sound and noticed that a few old men had noticed them. They were so engrossed in the fight that they had forgotten about the people around them.
In such an intense battle, they could not afford to be distracted at all.
Qin Fang was like that and so was Su Yang. If anyone dared to be distracted, their opponent would definitely seize the opportunity to use killing moves like [Mountain Lean] or [Tiger Head Charge] to kill their opponent instantly.
However, their fight was very fierce and they were almost fighting with their lives on the line. However, the old men did not seem to be unhappy at all. Instead, they had bright smiles on their faces.
"Alright, come over here …"
In the end, it was Old Niu who waved at Qin Fang and Su Yang.
Su Yang was still panting heavily, but he adjusted his body slightly and struggled to stand up. However, his breathing was obviously not very stable and seemed rather messy.
He had used almost all his strength in the explosion just now. However, he had also endured Qin Fang's full attack, so his breathing was in a mess. If he were to use his breathing now, he would not be competing with his opponent, but looking for trouble for himself.
Tian Youzhi and Ma Yu were nervous when they saw that Su Yang could still stand up. Even though Qin Fang seemed to be on par with Su Yang, everyone knew that Qin Fang was at an absolute disadvantage.
This was obvious by looking at the cracked skin on Qin Fang's elbow. That was the result of excessive explosive force and impact. Qin Fang was unable to stand up like Su Yang, which proved this point from another perspective.
Tian Youzhi and Ma Yu hesitated for a moment before they decided to help Qin Fang up.
However, the moment they took a step forward, they were stunned by the scene before them …
Qin Fang actually stood up!
Without anyone's help, he stood up shakily even though he looked like he could be blown down by a gust of wind at any moment.
However … he really stood up with his own strength and willpower.
Su Yang, who was walking towards Old Niu, stopped in his tracks and turned to look at Qin Fang, who had already stabilized himself. His eyes froze and were filled with disbelief.
Just like Tian Youzhi and Ma Yu, he did not believe that Qin Fang could stand up. However, reality shattered his fantasy. Qin Fang really stood up and was walking towards him.
Qin Fang's footsteps were not as steady as his, but Qin Fang seemed to be exceptionally adaptable. After taking about seven or eight steps, he gradually got used to walking. In the blink of an eye, he was already right in front of Old Niu.
Not only were Su Yang and the other juniors dumbfounded by this scene, even Elder Wu, Elder Niu, Elder Cai, and Elder Ma were shocked. Their eyesight was so sharp that they had long seen that Qin Fang was already an arrow at the end of its flight. The reason why he did not fall was because of his own willpower.
However, not only did he stand up, he could even walk so steadily. This was definitely not something that could be done with simple willpower.
The eyes of the four of them were filled with shock. It was obvious that Qin Fang's monstrous level was far beyond their imagination.
In fact …
"F * ck, [Mountain Lean] is really awesome!"
Looking at the 20% increase in his proficiency of the [Phloem Skin] skill, Qin Fang did not know if he should be excited or glad that his luck was too strong.
[Mountain Lean] was indeed a killing move, especially when it was used by a Level 5 expert like Su Yang. Even if Qin Fang used [Tiger Head Charge] with all his strength to counteract a considerable amount of the impact, he still could not completely withstand it.
However, at the crucial moment, Qin Fang's seemingly inactive [Phloem Skin] was suddenly activated. In addition, the sudden increase in his defense allowed Qin Fang to withstand the impact. The terrifying power of [Mountain Lean] continued to hit his body, causing his [Phloem Skin] skill to instantly increase by 20%.
Qin Fang's battle was over. He was completely out of it. He did not even have the strength to move. Every inch of his body seemed to be groaning in pain.
The berserk power invaded his body, causing him considerable pain. His HP also plummeted by a significant amount.
Fortunately, Qin Fang was prepared this time. The number of HP he lost this time was far less than Chen Liang's attack yesterday. Qin Fang only lost less than 10 HP. To Qin Fang, whose HP had reached 27 points, it was not a big deal.
However, the pain was continuous. Qin Fang's HP was also affected. It was still decreasing slowly.
However, this was not a problem for Qin Fang. There were hundreds of [Premium Soup Dumplings with + 3 HP] in the item box. The slow decrease of HP did not pose any threat to Qin Fang.
After five [Premium Soup Dumplings] in a row, Qin Fang's HP was restored to full. The pain on his body was still there, but his stamina was also recovering rapidly. The power that he had lost was also gradually returning to Qin Fang's body.
It was also because of this that Qin Fang had the strength to stand up and move.
As his HP and stamina gradually recovered, his footsteps gradually became stable, which attracted the extremely surprised gazes of the crowd.
Su Yang did not walk anymore. He just stood there quietly with a smile on his face as if he was waiting for Qin Fang's arrival.
Soon, Qin Fang was already in front of him. He looked at Su Yang, one of the Four Prodigies of Tiannan, strangely.
"You're very strong!"
To Qin Fang's surprise, his opponent, who was fighting to the death just now, actually took the initiative to extend his hand to Qin Fang and praised him.
At that moment, Su Yang was no longer as arrogant as before. Instead, he had become humble and polite. Qin Fang almost thought that he had mistaken him for someone else.
The fierce battle just now had fully proved this point. He had underestimated Qin Fang and did not fight wholeheartedly. Coupled with the fact that Qin Fang had successfully ambushed him, his emotions had become extremely anxious and angry, which had seriously affected his judgment.
His misjudgments time and time again allowed Qin Fang to seize the initiative and set up a trap step by step for him to fall into.
If not for the fact that his strength was much stronger than Qin Fang's, Su Yang would have been the one who lost just now and not Qin Fang.
From this point of view, they were not really tied, but Su Yang had lost. Su Yang, who was known as one of the Four Prodigies of Tiannan, had lost miserably and disgracefully.
However, Su Yang was not without gains.
This failure had allowed him to truly comprehend the meaning of martial arts. Underestimating the enemy was equivalent to failure.
It was just a sparring session between the two of them. Even if both of them had used their full strength and were quite heavy-handed, it was not that fatal.
However, if he had underestimated his opponent in the face of such a ferocious opponent, it was very likely that he would have become a cold corpse by now.
On the contrary, Qin Fang, who had been very vigilant and cautious, was very likely to survive even if he was facing an opponent who was far stronger than him.
At that moment, Qin Fang looked at Su Yang, who had completely changed into a different person, with a sincere expression on his face. At least Su Yang was no longer as annoying as before.
A martial artist who knew how to face his opponent head-on would be able to go further on this path.
"You're stronger than me!"
Qin Fang reached out and shook Su Yang's hand. At the same time, he said sincerely.
This was an indisputable fact. Even if Qin Fang did not want to admit it, the truth was the truth. No matter how outstanding he had been in the battle just now, it could not change this fact. This was something that he had to admit.
"You're still no match for me now!
One year later, I, Su Yang, will come and challenge you! "
Su Yang's words were quite firm, as if he did not allow Qin Fang to object.
A year's time was not long, but it was definitely not short either.
For Su Yang, who had stepped into Level 5, a year's time was enough for him to hone his foundation and prepare to break through to Level 6.
He was still young. Although he was already prepared to break through to the master level, he knew that it was not something that could be achieved in a short period of time. Otherwise, it would have been a miracle for Chen Qingsong to break through to the master level before the age of 30.
This year's time was reserved for Qin Fang.
The gap between Qin Fang's strength and his was obvious. If he had not underestimated his opponent and made several mistakes, Qin Fang would have fallen by now.
However, he would not make such a mistake again next time. Then, Qin Fang would definitely not be his match.
Now that he had lost this time, he would need another chance to fight.
In a year's time, Qin Fang's strength would definitely improve by leaps and bounds. He did not doubt this at all. In fact, he knew very well that Qin Fang's talent in martial arts was far stronger than his.
With such talent, if Qin Fang stood in the same position as him a year later, it would be an evenly matched battle.
He knew that if he delayed any longer, he might not have another chance because he would have to spend a lot of time and energy to catch up with an opponent who was rising rapidly.
This was a bit like Elder Cai and Elder Niu back then. However, when it came to their generation of disciples, one of them seemed to have dropped.
"Okay!
I promise you!
Let's fight again in a year's time! "
Looking at Su Yang in front of him, Qin Fang knew that such an opponent was worthy of respect. How could he refuse such a challenge?
The promise of a year began from this day onwards!
