Urban Martial Saint

”Right, is Ye Qing hiding because he knows our head coach is coming?”

”If you’re brave enough, come out instead of hiding like a turtle!”

”Come out quickly, or we’ll burn down your place!”

The people around the Taekwondo Gym were shouting loudly, bolstered by the presence of Jin Yi Nan. Jin Yi Nan’s recently demonstrated strength had given them a lot more confidence.

The underlings of Mad Dog had carried over the man who had been beaten earlier, his ribs broken, the injuries severe.

”Damn it, these bastards are too much, they just want to bully us because they have more people!” a man said gravely, ”Brother Bear, should we call Li and ask him to send some people to help?”

Black Bear also frowned. Right now, Ye Qing’s place was indeed short of people. Especially at this time, they were at a disadvantage even in a verbal fight due to their fewer numbers.

”Are you here to talk, or are you here to fight?” Black Bear shouted loudly, ”That Jin Bunan, if you really want to fight, I’ll take you on. The captain hasn’t come back, and besides, what makes you think you qualify to fight our captain? If you don’t want to fight me, then take your men and scram. Oh, and remember to pay for the stuff you smashed before you leave!”

Jin Yi Nan didn’t understand what Black Bear was saying and turned to the translator. After a round of hurried translation, Jin Yi Nan became furious and roared as he charged toward Black Bear.

Black Bear responded directly, swinging his massive fist at Jin Yi Nan. However, Jin Yi Nan was extremely agile; just as he reached Black Bear, he suddenly ducked, accurately dodging the punch. He then moved to Black Bear’s back, shouted loudly, and landed a heavy kick on Black Bear’s back.

Jin Yi Nan was indeed strong. Even a physique as sturdy as Black Bear’s was forced to stumble forward three or four steps. Black Bear frowned, realizing he was up against a tough opponent. Jin Yi Nan was far stronger than he was.

”Good!”

”The head coach is invincible under the heavens!”

”Kill him! Kill him!”

”Later, kill Ye Qing too so we can return the humiliation our Taekwondo has suffered, and make them pay back double!”

The people from the surrounding Taekwondo Gym were all clamoring, eager for chaos.

Enraged, Black Bear turned around and swung his fist at Jin Yi Nan again. Jin Yi Nan, nimble as ever, dodged and this time landed a flying kick on Black Bear’s shoulder. Fortunately, Black Bear was robust. Though he felt a slight pain, he immediately grabbed at Jin Yi Nan.

By then, Jin Yi Nan was no longer there. He moved around Black Bear like a monkey, taking every opportunity to strike. After a few minutes, Black Bear had taken more than a dozen hits, growing increasingly irritable.

Jin Yi Nan was also frustrated. He had fought similar strongmen to Black Bear before, but Black Bear was much stronger than any of them, showing no signs of weakening despite the blows. Those other opponents would have been down by now.

As the struggle continued, Jin Yi Nan grew impatient, knowing it might take a while to defeat Black Bear this way. Not wanting to lose face in front of his fans, he suddenly aimed a kick at Black Bear’s eyes.

The eyes are the softest part of the human body. Despite all his muscles, Black Bear’s eyes were just as vulnerable as anyone else’s. If the kick had landed properly, Black Bear might have lost an eye.

Just then, Ye Qing had just arrived from outside. Hearing the noise of the fight, he rushed in and saw what was happening, shouting in horror, ”Stop!”

Ye Qing’s voice boomed like thunder, startling everyone present, including Jin Yi Nan. That moment’s hesitation caused his kick to go astray, hitting Black Bear on the forehead and causing his body to sway. Luckily, it missed the eye, or the consequences would have been unimaginable!

Among the crowd, a young man who recognized Ye Qing sneered, ”So there you are, Ye. I thought you were going to keep hiding like a turtle. Our head coach came personally to find you. You should feel honored!”

Many others who didn’t recognize Ye Qing, hearing this, immediately turned to look at him, loudly calling out to take Jin Yi Nan’s place in fighting Ye Qing. These people had never seen Ye Qing before and didn’t know how strong he was; seeing his average build, they thought he would be easy to bully.

Pushing through the crowd, Jin Yi Nan walked up to Ye Qing, saying something in a flurry.

”Mr. Jin Yi Nan says, are you Ye Qing?” the translator followed up, ”You’ve injured his two disciples and deliberately insulted the reputation of Taekwondo. He now represents all Taekwondo martial artists to fight you and let you see the true power of Taekwondo and the true strength of Bonguk people. No matter what martial arts you use from Huaxia, they’re useless before Taekwondo!”

Ye Qing glanced at the translator, slowly furrowed his brow, and said solemnly, ”Ask him if he’s ever going to stop. Are all you Bonguk people so arrogant? All this ’Taekwondo is invincible under the heavens’ talk, haven’t you been beaten enough to be embarrassed? Do you really have to line up to shame yourselves, one by one? Is that fun?”

Jin Yi Nan didn’t understand what Ye Qing had said, but the surrounding people immediately exploded into uproar, shouting loudly.

”What did you say?”

”Ye, you dare to insult Taekwondo!”

”I’ll fight you! I’ll fight you!”

”Damn it, I’ll kill you first!”

The most hot-headed one charged straight out and rushed toward Ye Qing without hesitation, launching a kick midair aimed at Ye Qing.

Ye Qing didn’t dodge; he simply took a step toward him, dodging his kick and slamming his right elbow hard into his chest. The man was instantly flung backward, crashing through two large glass panels before finally stopping, falling to the floor and even breaking a chair. Blood spilled from his mouth and nose, and he collapsed to the ground, devoid of the strength to even struggle to his feet.

Everyone was stunned. After that, the previously shouting crowd dared not make any more noise.

Ye Qing then looked at the two large glass panels and the chair, pointing to the man he had just flung and said, ”You’re going to have to pay for these!”

Jin Yi Nan was taken aback; he hadn’t expected Ye Qing’s strength to be so formidable. Looking at the man flung away, he was secretly shocked. With his own strength, it would have been impossible to throw someone that far. Not to mention Ye Qing’s technique, the sheer strength alone was terrifying.

The translator also shivered, looked at Ye Qing, then at Jin Yi Nan in astonishment, waiting for him to speak.

Jin Yi Nan felt awkward and hesitated for a moment before mumbling a bunch of words. The translator hastily followed up, ”Ye… Ye Qing, don’t think that just because you have some strength, you can intimidate people. Taekwondo has the world’s most precise techniques, and your strength is useless against it!”

”Useful or not, why don’t we find out by fighting?”

Before Ye Qing could respond, a robust voice suddenly came from outside the door. Everyone turned to look and saw an elderly man in his sixties or seventies, with his hands behind his back, walking in. Following him were two men, one tall and the other Wang Tiezhu. The elder was the Old Bodyguard of the Ding Family.

”Wang Tiezhu!” Ye Qing’s expression changed, and he hurriedly approached, but the Old Bodyguard simply waved his hand and said, ”Young man, take care of your own affairs first!”

”Who are you?” Ye Qing asked solemnly, judging by the tall man’s treatment of the elder, he couldn’t help but feel some suspicion about the old man’s identity. Without a doubt, this elder’s status was not simple.

”Let’s talk about our matter later, you should first bring glory to your nation,” the Old Bodyguard glanced at Jin Yi Nan and said, ”This guy is annoying, can you beat him up for me?”

”Damn it, old man, what right do you have to speak here? Get out!” a man from the Taekwondo Gym yelled loudly.

The Old Bodyguard didn’t even look at him, just quietly watched Ye Qing.

Ye Qing looked over at Wang Tiezhu, whose body had been properly bandaged, and seeing he was not in mortal danger, slowly nodded.

”So, head coach, how are we going to fight? Can we make it quick? I have other things to deal with,” Ye Qing said to the coach.

After hearing the translation, Jin Yi Nan’s face darkened. Ye Qing didn’t regard him as a threat at all, talking about the fight as if he was just squeezing it into his busy schedule, not even considering him a worthy opponent.

”Huaxia people, you will pay for your arrogance!” Jin Yi Nan shouted in his native language, not waiting for a translator, and immediately rushed forward with a shout, aiming a kick at Ye Qing.

Ye Qing didn’t dodge; he charged directly forward, intending to use his right elbow to knock Jin Yi Nan away just like before.

The young man from the Taekwondo Gym that Ye Qing had knocked down earlier was relatively weak, which was why the attack was successful. Jin Yi Nan was different. His strength was formidable, and knowing that Ye Qing possessed formidable power, he wouldn’t confront Ye Qing directly.

Seeing Ye Qing charging at him, Jin Yi Nan quickly dodged, almost brushing past Ye Qing’s body to get behind him and aiming a kick at his waist.

Ye Qing was considerably faster than Black Bear. When Jin Yi Nan got behind him, Ye Qing rushed forward a couple of steps, narrowly dodging the kick. However, from this encounter, he accurately gauged Jin Yi Nan’s strength. This man was fast, even faster than Ye Qing. After all, being head coach of the Taekwondo Gym of the Eastern Province wasn’t for nothing.

Unable to hit Ye Qing with his kick, Jin Yi Nan shouted loudly and charged to engage with Ye Qing directly. Knowing Jin Yi Nan’s speed, Ye Qing grew more cautious, no longer acting recklessly, always leaving room for maneuver to anticipate Jin Yi Nan’s attacks.

Jin Yi Nan, wary of Ye Qing’s strength, also didn’t dare to get too close. As a result, both men were somewhat reserved in their attacks, and after fighting for a while, neither could secure a decisive victory, leaving the onlookers dazzled.

The Old Bodyguard stood beside, his eyes constantly on Ye Qing. However, the gleam in his eyes was steadily intensifying.
