Dou Tang reached into his inner pocket and pulled out... his student ID.
He waved his student ID in his hand and said, "Yiyan Private Academy, Grade 11, Kiryu Toudou."
The audience was silent.
Student ID?!
The fake Kiryu on the stage clenched his fist, took a deep breath, and said, "Just as I thought..."
Everything I have now is thanks to you.
Dou Tang ignored his nonsensical words and instead raised his head to ask, "It's my turn to ask you, what's the deal with your boxing technique?"
"What's going on?" The fake Kiryu laughed angrily. "Then let you experience it for yourself!"
"No one else is allowed to interfere!" He waved his hand and jumped off the platform.
Dou Tang handed the microphone to Yan Yuanmei, gesturing for her to step back. Then, he slightly raised his hands, bent over, and assumed a fighting stance. He raised his hand and beckoned, asking, "How do you want to fight?"
"I'll use what you're best at to defeat you." The fake Kiryu stretched his shoulders and assumed the same stance as Toudou.
Relax your shoulders and lower your elbows.
Slouch your chest and straighten your back.
The two men stared at each other, their eyes burning with fighting spirit, and assumed the exact same stance.
The Wu Family Thirteen Postures is the boxing style that Dou Tang is most proficient in.
This style of boxing emphasizes the harmony of internal and external elements, requiring folding and turning in advance and retreat. The internal energy governs the external form, and the movements are as fluid and graceful as calligraphy.
Its hands are no higher than its eyebrows and no further than its feet, hence the name "Old Plum Blossom with Dry Branches".
In his previous life, Dou Tang failed to reach the level of Dry Branch Old Plum because his boxing style contained too many large and sweeping moves from the Northern boxing system, such as Tongbei Quan.
However, the fusion of Wu Family Thirteen Postures with Tongbei Fist is unique in the world, and only he has achieved this.
The Tongbei Quan style is crisp and sharp, while the Wu Family Thirteen Postures combine strength and gentleness. Only when these elements are integrated can Ren Doutang truly shine.
“I haven’t taught this kind of boxing technique to anyone,” Dou Tang said coldly, looking at his posture.
"Besides my sister, no one else knows the whole story."
The fake Kiryu remained silent, unusually so, but his eyes burned with fighting spirit and a hatred that seemed to come from nowhere.
"So, after you're done fighting, tell me properly where you got this boxing technique from."
After Dou Tang finished speaking, he slowly raised his hand. The two were of one mind, and the time to make their move had come.
At this moment, Dou Tang's "first move of the first move" came into play once again. The instant the fake Kiryu raised his right hand, Dou Tang had already seen through the move.
Mode.
Dou Tang's eyes were filled with disappointment. He took a step forward and deliberately moved closer to the attack range of the fake Kiryu.
The fake Kiryu raised his hand, and his entire arm, along with his shoulder, swung towards Dou Tang like a steel whip. Although it looked simple and unadorned, judging from the angle of his elbow and the coordination of his shoulder and waist, it was a highly accomplished Tongbei Fist technique.
Dou Tang remained calm and unhurried, stepping forward with his left foot, lowering his left shoulder, reaching forward with his left hand and reaching up with his right hand, while raising his right hand with his right hand.
With his left hand, he pressed down on the fake Kiryu's elbow, while his right hand caught the fake Kiryu's hard fist with a "smack!" Then, he pulled his hands upwards, hooked his left foot around the fake Kiryu's right ankle, and pulled him backwards!
"Varied……"
A flash of surprise crossed Fake Kiryu's eyes, but he didn't panic. As his right foot was tripped, he took the opportunity to use his left foot to propel himself into the air. His right foot, which had been bent from being tripped, kicked directly into Tou Tang's chest.
Dou Tang could only release the right hand of the fake Kiryu and press down hard with both hands, landing precisely on the instep of the fake Kiryu, thus breaking the sacrificial kick.
But just when the fake Kiryu thought he had successfully broken Doutang's move, Doutang pressed forward again!
Dou Tang had anticipated the fake Kiryu's self-sacrificing kick and had been waiting for this move. Now that the fake Kiryu's lower body was unstable, it was the perfect time for him to strike!
This is a difference in experience, a truly crushing defeat!
Before the fake Kiryu could even regain his footing, a barrage of rapid punches rained down upon him!
Chapter 176 You think you're worthy of boxing?!
"Bang bang bang bang..."
A barrage of rapid punches rained down on the fake Kiryu, who, having lost his balance, could only retreat, raising his forearms to block the attacks from Doutang.
Raising your forearm to block your face is a big no-no.
"Practicing boxing without looking at your opponent is a major taboo!" Dou Tang roared. "Tongbei Quan emphasizes eye techniques, and you are not qualified!"
"Oh!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than Dou Tang spread his hands and delivered a chop, bypassing the blockade on his face and striking the fake Kiryu in the ribs!
The fake Kiryu stumbled and crashed into the high platform behind him.
Then, he angrily raised his hand, rushed forward again, and punched Dou Tang.
Dou Tang dodged, glared at him, and began to struggle with him again.
The fake Kiryu's punches and kicks were quite skillful, but when he changed his moves, obvious flaws would appear, completely different from the fierceness of his attacks.
Dou Tang was furious. In his opinion, the guy in front of him had not met his expectations at all. He couldn't even be considered a normal martial artist, let alone meet his expectations.
Ultimately, it's just a clumsy imitation of one's own boxing style, like an outsider forcibly imprinting boxing techniques into a robot's brain.
They have absolutely no ability to adapt to changing circumstances.
This is a big no-no.
Boxing emphasizes routines, but the essence of routines is to pass down a set of boxing techniques that are difficult to remember in the form of routines, so that they are not lost in the era when there was no video recording.
However, if you only stick to the routines when practicing boxing, it will be of no use at all.
After mastering the routine, break it down and treat it as a series of individual movements to be randomly combined and adapted to the situation. This is the essence of practicing boxing.
This guy in front of me is not up to par.
"The power of Tongbei Quan emphasizes cold, elastic, crisp, fast, hard, deep, long, flexible, soft, skillful, heavy, fierce, light, agile, and trembling, encompassing emptiness, sticking, connecting, and following..." After a series of fast punches, Dou Tang suddenly spun around, his upper body trembled slightly, and his fist retracted as his wrist struck the fake Kiryu's throat, causing the power to be released in a straight line along his shoulder and arm, with great openness and movement.
Dou Tang repelled him again, shouting, "Where's your little helper?! Is that all you've got?!"
"You don't know how to box!"
Fake Kiryu clutched his throat and crashed into the platform again. After catching his breath, he continued to glare defiantly at Dou Tang.
The onlookers were thrilled, but dared not disturb the fight.
Even a fool could see the information contained in this battle. Dou Tang's every move was accompanied by a strong wind, and his fast punches carried a chilling sound. From the moment he made his move, this battle had become a rare visual treat.
Fake Kiryu wiped his mask to remove the blood that had splattered from his mouth from biting it, then took off his jacket, revealing his tight-fitting sports bra underneath.
He had a lean, muscular physique, which looked remarkably similar to Dou Tang's.
But seeing this, Dou Tang became even angrier. His brows furrowed, and his mouth under his mask snarled with anger, like a raging tiger.
He gritted his teeth and said fiercely, "Do you know... that taking off your clothes is the biggest taboo in Tongbei Quan?"
The fake Kiryu shook his head, flicked his hands, and lightly tapped his feet on the ground, suddenly becoming much more agile.
He raised his hands, completely changed his posture, and jumped around on the ground, his demeanor instantly transforming.
"It seems that defeating you with your own methods is indeed unrealistic."
After he finished speaking, he took off the mask from his mouth.
The face that was revealed was almost exactly the same as Dou Tang's.
"I've become like this... all thanks to you," he said sinisterly.
“I have my own life and my own things to do, but in the end… it turned out like this.” He raised his hand and pointed at Dou Tang. “All of this is because of you.”
"I will definitely, definitely kill you."
Upon hearing this, Dou Tang's doubts deepened.
Because of me...?
Before he could ask a question, the fake Kiryu had already...
They've caught up!
A completely different attack, transformed into a whirlwind, rushed towards them!
"Crack, crack, crack—"
The fake Kiryu, who had changed his fighting style, seemed to have suddenly become a different person. His punches were fierce and swift, as frenzied as a hyena that kept launching attacks.
Before he could figure out the moves, Dou Tang was overwhelmed by the rapid punches and became somewhat passive.
But his eyes actually brightened considerably.
This feels right!
Dou Tang suddenly realized that this fighting style was what the fake Kiryu was truly good at. The moves were fluid and the attacks were continuous. Every move was full of spirit, rather than the clumsy imitation that had been pieced together before.
Seeing an opportunity, Dou Tang was delighted and began to spar with him with great pleasure.
Dou Tang's attacks were wide and sweeping, his Tongbei Fist crackling with a powerful gust of wind, his moves swift and heavy.
His defensive stance combines strength and flexibility, and he fully utilizes the "yielding to the opponent" technique from the Thirteen Postures, making his movements as smooth as flowing water as when receiving and countering attacks.
"If you have such a fist technique, why would you want to imitate me?" Dou Tang asked, puzzled, as he fought.
"I'll kill you... I'm going to kill you!" The enraged fake Kiryu seemed unable to understand human speech.
"You're not going to tell me..." Dou Tang narrowed his eyes, "Then I'll ask you myself after I defeat you!"
"Oh!"
Suddenly, Dou Tang seized the opportunity and unleashed a powerful punch that struck the fake Kiryu in the abdomen!
The fake Kiryu was instantly sent flying backward, crashing into a makeshift platform and falling to the ground amidst fragments of wood and plastic beer crates.
The squad leaders on the platform had no choice but to jump down.
Upon seeing this, Kenichi Mamiya didn't hesitate. He picked up the fake Kiryu from the ground and shouted, "Quick! Stop him!"
Upon hearing this, the Eight Eyes Brothers charged directly towards Dou Tang, with Qianye Jiuciye following closely behind. The wounded Asakura Chifu helped Mamiya Kenichi move the fake Kiryu.
Yagami roared, "Brothers! Attack together!"
At this moment, the onlookers realized that many of the most loyal members of the biker gang had already picked up their weapons and were charging towards Dou Tang and Yan Yuanmei.
Dou Tang wanted to chase after him, but turned back to look at the helpless Yan Yuanmei and finally scoffed.
He used his toe to pick up a piece of broken wooden stick that had flown off the platform from the ground, threw it to Yan Yuanmei, and then shouted, "Hide behind me!"
Iwabuchi Mei took the stick and swung it down at the biker gang member who was rushing towards him to grab someone. The man didn't even have time to scream before he collapsed to the ground.
"Don't underestimate me!" Without turning her head, she stepped back, back to back with Dou Tang, and called out unhappily.
Dou Tang gave a wry smile as he looked at the three squad leaders rushing towards him.
Then, his hands swung wildly like thunder, his fists, brimming with killing intent, were unleashed like a dragon emerging from the water, charging forward with the swiftness of a brushstroke.
The three squad leaders had arrived, but they had no idea what awaited them.
The sounds of fists and feet clashing echoed through the night sky, accompanied by countless screams and wails.
Chapter 177 Melee
For Dou Tang, chaotic battles were just for fun.
Before the enemy reaches the level of a half-demon, even if they are armed with various weapons, these ordinary people cannot defeat Dou Tang.
The problem is, Iwabuchi Mei is still present.
In order to protect Yan Yuanmei in the chaos of battle, Dou Tang had no choice but to break through the encirclement, which was no easy task.
We have no choice but to take drastic measures.
Facing a simultaneous attack from many people, Dou Tang did not retreat but advanced, rushing into the arms of one of them. While striking the man's ribs with his elbow, he lifted the man's arm with his other hand and darted under his armpit like a vicious snake, leaving behind the enemy who fell to the ground with a thud and howled in pain.
If you can't deal with many enemies at the same time, change the situation to a one-on-one one. After closing the distance and fighting the enemy in close combat, you only need to consider the one enemy in front of you, which would have been attacked from multiple directions. This can quickly improve the situation of being surrounded.
"Stay close to me!" Dou Tang shouted, pulling Yan Yuanmei from behind him to his side.
Yan Yuanmei nearly fell as he pulled her, but she quickly realized that Dou Tang's large hand caught her, wrapped around her waist, and held her tightly by his side.
Even when protecting one person, Dou Tang's fighting power was far beyond what these biker gang could comprehend. His punches and kicks were incredibly swift, and he charged through the crowd with Yan Yuanmei in his arms, leaving behind a trail of groans wherever he went.
"Damn it! Don't run!" Yamu Ye roared, shoving aside the others blocking his way, and rushed to Dou Tang in one stride. This burly man with a buzz cut was a top fighter among the headless dogs, and street fighting was his forte.
