The tip of the foot tapped the ground, twisting in mid-air to kick towards Ning Chengwen's head.

Ning Chengwen couldn't dodge in time and had to use his hands to block once again.

But this time, Gongsun Fengying was determined to kick Ning Chengwen away and didn't hold back at all.

After the kick landed, Ning Chengwen was sent flying once more.

Ye Guichen smiled faintly, stepped forward, and caught the embarrassed Ning Chengwen.

Ning Chengwen staggered, nearly falling again if it weren't for Ye Guichen's support. He could hardly stand on his own.

"Immortal brother, I..." Ning Chengwen was extremely ashamed.

Ye Guichen comforted him, "You did well. You've only been training for a short time. Think carefully about where you fell short during the fight. This is a rare opportunity."

Seeing that Ye Guichen wasn't blaming him, Ning Chengwen grinned, ignoring the pain in his body, and nodded vigorously, "I understand, immortal brother."

Ye Guichen waved, and someone came to support Ning Chengwen to the side.

Ye Guichen walked to Gongsun Fengying and cupped his fists, "Captain Gongsun, what brings you here?"

Gongsun Fengying snorted, "Does it matter which wind? I thought a genius like Captain Ye would have at least someone competent under his wing, but it turns out they're all useless."

"What nonsense are you talking?" Hearing Gongsun Fengying insult their dojo, Fang Yu's veins bulged, and he pointed at Gongsun Fengying, cursing, "If you have the guts, say that again."

"Kid, even if I say it eight more times, it would be the same." Gongsun Fengying glanced provocatively at Fang Yu, then turned back to Ye Guichen, "Captain Ye, isn't that right?"

Ye Guichen nodded thoughtfully, "Of course. Captain Gongsun is indeed a rare genius. If someone from my dojo could defeat Captain Gongsun, where would Captain Gongsun's pride go? Haha. However, Captain Gongsun didn't travel such a long distance just to challenge me, did you?"

"Ye Guichen, don't be so arrogant!" Gongsun Fengying didn't exchange more words, "Since the last martial arts competition, I've wanted to compete with you. Defeat me first, and then we can talk!"

As she spoke, Gongsun Fengying's fist was already flying towards Ye Guichen's face.

Ye Guichen saw this and smiled calmly, shaking his head lightly, "Captain Gongsun, I told you last time, quality over quantity. Dual Cultivation of martial arts and hardening techniques is not easy, but without sacrifice, there's no gain. Haha. However, since you wish to duel today, I won't ruin your fun. Watch carefully."

Without further politeness, as Gongsun Fengying's fist approached, Ye Guichen's figure sidestepped like a phantom, his right hand extending simultaneously.

The next second, a burst of energy struck directly at Gongsun Fengying's armpit.

Pfft!

The sound was faint, but Gongsun Fengying's face changed drastically. Her arm, which was aimed at Ye Guichen, immediately dropped.

At the same time, Ye Guichen advanced, pointing directly at Gongsun Fengying's forehead.

Frightened, Gongsun Fengying retreated rapidly, stumbling several steps before falling to the ground in an embarrassing state.

Gongsun Fengying's face turned red.

The surroundings were filled with commotion.

No one expected that Ye Guichen, seemingly playfully, would actually knock Gongsun Fengying down.

"Mr. Ye, impressive!"

"Haha, immortal brother, immortal brother!"

"Woman, keep being arrogant now!"

The dojo was filled with excited shouts, especially from the students, their eyes shining as they looked at Ye Guichen.

They knew the dojo's big boss was a master, but most had never seen Ye Guichen in action.

Seeing him today, their blood was boiling.

Ye Guichen walked to Gongsun Fengying, "Well, do you want to continue?"

Gongsun Fengying's face turned red with shame, not expecting to lose so miserably.

Moreover, it felt like Ye Guichen hadn't even exerted his full strength.

Feeling humiliated, Gongsun Fengying struggled to her feet, picking up her iron rod, "Again!"

Her demeanor showed her defiance clearly.

Ye Guichen shook his head, "I know you're strong and talented, but you're no match for me. Whether in martial arts or hardening techniques, you can't harm me. Moreover, the drawbacks of your dual cultivation are becoming more evident. You might excel against ordinary experts, but real masters will see you exhausted and vulnerable. You should have remembered what I told you back then. You're here now, hoping I'll help you, right?"

Upon hearing this, Gongsun Fengying's expression was conflicted.

Though reluctant to admit it, Ye Guichen was spot on.

The dual cultivation of martial arts and hardening techniques indeed made Gongsun Fengying shine.

During the last martial arts competition, Ye Guichen had pointed out the drawbacks of her dual cultivation, but Gongsun Fengying didn't believe him then.

As a result, after being injured by Caesar and returning home to train again, she discovered signs of blockage in her meridians. Moreover, every time she trained in martial arts, she felt powerless and drenched in sweat, becoming increasingly fatigued.

What horrified Gongsun Fengying even more was that her physical condition also began to deteriorate.

She had sought advice from several experts, but none could diagnose her symptoms.

Inevitably, she thought of Ye Guichen.

Without telling anyone, Gongsun Fengying came quietly to Jinling. Seeing Ye Guichen had just opened a new dojo, she wanted to show him up first, but didn't expect that in just over ten days, Ye Guichen would outshine her by so much.

Especially hearing Ye Guichen casually consider her not a match, Gongsun Fengying's sense of defeat was unprecedentedly intense, "How would I know without trying!"

"Force of a thousand catties!" Gongsun Fengying swung the iron rod, slashing down at Ye Guichen's head.

Being a strength practitioner, though small in stature, her power was astonishing.

This strike carried immense force.

The onlookers gasped, seeing Gongsun Fengying's fierce move.

Ye Guichen lightly shook his head, "Captain Gongsun, why bother."

He raised his hand again, grabbing the rapidly descending iron rod.

Then, with a flick of his wrist and a light pull, the rod's vibrations made Gongsun Fengying's arms go numb, and she instinctively loosened her grip.

Ye Guichen directly pulled the rod away.

"Come on, let's go to the nearby pharmacy. I'll check your condition. If you continue like this, not only will your skills stagnate, but you'll regress. With your constitution, you'll be completely crippled by your forties or fifties."

Ignoring Gongsun Fengying's unwilling expression, Ye Guichen turned and walked towards the adjacent pharmacy.

Gongsun Fengying, always proud, bit her lip and stomped her foot in anger, but deep down she knew Ye Guichen was telling the truth.

"Alright, let's see what you can do!" Ignoring the strange looks from those around, she followed Ye Guichen to the pharmacy.
