Peaceful Farm Life

Chapter 757: Chapter 758 She is Particularly Good at Close Combat_1

The onlookers were all acquaintances, and An Jing didn’t have anything to mind. She had sparred with her comrades in the military before, with even more people watching, so she felt no psychological burden at all.

Gong Juese also didn’t mind the audience.

Before they started fighting, Gong Juese asked generously, ”Jingjing, although you said yesterday you’ve never lost in a fight, I thought about it and still feel like I should hold back a few moves.”

An Jing laughed, ”No need for you to hold back. Just bring out your real skills, and if you win with one move, I’ll accept it.”

”That’s what you said, so I won’t be polite,” Gong Juese boasted with an air of certainty about winning.

Seeing Gong Juese like this, An Jing couldn’t help but laugh, ”Yes, I said that.” She paused, then asked, ”What weapon do you want to use?”

”It’s up to you,” Gong Juese replied with utter confidence, sure that An Jing was no match for her.

Indeed, Gong Juese had always been extremely confident in her martial arts skills. She had never encountered an opponent who could best her.

Therefore, she hadn’t really taken An Jing’s challenge seriously, regardless of how skilled An Jing might be.

She felt certain that An Jing’s martial arts couldn’t possibly be better than hers.

An Jing smiled, ”Then shall we both go unarmed, without any weapons?”

Gong Juese was initially startled, not expecting An Jing to choose hand-to-hand combat, but then she accepted with a laugh, ”If you wish to fight unarmed, then let’s fight unarmed, I have no objections.”

Extremely adept at close-quarters combat, An Jing thought Gong Juese was seriously underestimating her by agreeing so readily to go unarmed.

If they used weapons, it would be very difficult for her to defeat Gong Juese, who had been trained in their use from a young age.

But unarmed combat...

Heh, her chances of winning just got a lot better.

”Anything else? If not, let’s begin our spar!” Gong Juese asked with a boldness.

An Jing immediately replied with a serious expression, ”Okay.”

Then, the two of them began to fight.

At first, Gong Juese was full of confidence, even planning to secretly give An Jing a couple of free moves, but before she could do so, she discovered that An Jing was much more skilled than she had imagined.

An Jing’s body was incredibly agile, her movements were fast, and her strikes were quick, precise, and ruthless. This made Gong Juese unconsciously lose her confident smile, and she began to take the fight seriously, truly contending with An Jing.

While Gong Juese was highly skilled, her strength had always been in attacking, not defending.

An Jing, however, was different. She had mastered close-quarters combat to perfection, excelling not only in striking first but also in defense.

Without weapons in hand, and only good at attacking, Gong Juese truly had no advantage compared to An Jing, the powerhouse of hand-to-hand combat. Before long, Gong Juese started to struggle, no longer underestimating An Jing, and fought with all her might.

Originally, Meng Zhuqing and Meng Lanqing thought that Gong Juese would easily handle An Jing within a few moves.

After all, Gong Juese had casually managed to defeat both of them simultaneously, and their martial arts skills were no small feat, even ranking in the top ten within the military.

But now, watching An Jing go over fifty moves with Gong Juese, not only not falling out but also appearing to be on the verge of winning, both Meng Zhuqing and Meng Lanqing were extremely surprised.

They had never imagined An Jing’s skills to be so remarkable.

Since they had never seen An Jing throw a punch, they had always assumed her martial arts were nothing special.
