Chapter Twenty: One Battle Makes a Name

  Mufeng gazed at the figure growing larger in his pupils, and a feeling arose in his heart. This move, there was no way to dodge it. If he tried to avoid it, he would definitely suffer heavy damage. The only solution was to counter with force!

  However, his own cultivation was far inferior to Jiang Yong's. If they were to clash head-on, he might not be able to withstand it either.

  Jiang Yong didn't give Mu Feng time to react, bringing with him a flurry of fierce punches that enveloped Mu Feng's entire body.

  "Willow-shaped fist, willow catkins fill the sky!"

  Mo Feng's instincts kicked in as he took a step forward, swinging his fists wildly. Dozens of fist silhouettes burst forth, and the two figures collided heavily.

  A powerful gust of punches burst forth on the stage, sweeping away all the dust on the entire bluestone platform. Then, everyone saw that Mu Feng's figure flew backward, leaving behind two long marks on the bluestone platform with his feet, but at the edge of the platform, he stubbornly stabilized himself.

  Jiang Yong also retreated two steps back, stabilizing his body, looking at Mu Feng with a gloomy face.

  In the previous exchange, Mu Feng was completely desperate in his fighting style. In this life-and-death struggle, Jiang Yong became somewhat fearful and eventually pulled back some of his strength to defend himself. This also resulted in Mu Feng being only slightly injured and not seriously harmed.

  Although Jiang Yong seemed to have the upper hand on the surface, after three moves had passed, Mu Feng was still standing unscathed on the bluestone platform, and this match could also be considered a loss for him.

  The crowd under the stage was speechless, unable to utter a word. The Mu Feng in front of them was far too different from the Mu Feng they had imagined. This stunning transformation left them stunned, and for a moment, they were still unable to react.

  Jiang Meng and the young man behind him were also silent, with an incredulous expression on their faces. They had not expected Jiang Yong to make a move, and none of them had defeated Mu Feng.

  Yang Zhan's facial expression was even more wonderful, as Mu Feng's best friend, he didn't even see that Mu Feng had such strong strength.

  Wow!

  Mo Feng spat out a mouthful of blood and felt slightly better. Just now, he had barely blocked Jiang Yong's move, and was also injured in the process.

  Mo Feng wiped away the fresh blood from the corner of his mouth with his hand and said, "Three moves have passed, Jiang Yong, you lost."

  Jiang Yong's face was gloomy, he nodded and said: "You hid very deeply, today we brothers admit defeat."

  He turned and stepped down from the green stone platform, swept a glance over Jiang Meng and others, then was about to leave.

  "Brother, just let him off like this?" Jiang Meng hastily said.

  "You still don't think you've lost enough face." Jiang Yong glared at Jiang Meng, anyone could see that Jiang Yong's heart was filled with anger, and the young men didn't dare say anything more, silently following him as he left.

  Watching Jiang Yong and others leave, Mu Feng and Yang Zhan felt an indescribable sense of relief.

  Yang Zhan ran up to the bluestone platform and lightly punched Mufeng's shoulder: "Not bad, Mufeng, I didn't expect you to be a hidden mastermind!"

  A month ago, Yang Zhan personally saw Mu Feng barely withstand Jiang Meng's three punches. Unexpectedly, just a month later, Mu Feng not only easily defeated Jiang Meng but also withstood Jiang Yong's three moves. To him, this matter was almost unbelievable.

  "Let's go back first." Mu Feng saw that the crowd below was staring at him, so he pulled Yang Zhan and jumped off the bluestone platform, hurrying away.

  Everyone's gaze remained fixed until Mu Feng disappeared around the street corner, and only then did they slowly withdraw their eyes, still filled with a shock that even they themselves dared not believe.

  Mo Feng won against Jiang Meng, and the news of his victory over Jiang Yong also spread quickly throughout Hong Feng Town. Those who did not go to watch the competition began to question the authenticity of this news, but seeing that many people were saying so, they thoroughly believed it.

  This news also caused a stir in the entire Red Maple Town, as the young man from the Mu family, who had never been able to enter the ranks of martial artists for so many years, seemed to have become a martial arts genius overnight. With his cultivation at the mid-stage of the Refining Body Realm, he defeated Jiang Meng, who was at the late stage of the Refining Body Realm, and even fought evenly with Jiang Yong, the young genius of Red Maple Town.

  In the Mo family living room, Mo Chengzhi and his family of three were quietly having dinner.

  "I heard you won against Jiang Meng today and even drew with Jiang Yong?" Mu Chengzhi said with a smile on his face.

  "I've only exchanged three moves with Jiang Yong, if we continue fighting, I won't be his match." Mu Feng said, forcing a smile.

  "Jiang Yong is already a warrior at the peak of the Refining Body Realm, and you can persist for three moves under his hands, which is not easy. When did you break through again?" Lin Hui also smiled and said, facing her son's sudden change, she was also very happy.

  "A few days ago, I found a purple heart flower in the mountains and then exchanged it with Uncle Pang for five fire silver fruits. With the help of the fire silver fruits, I broke through to the middle stage of the Refining Body Realm a few days ago." Mu Feng said honestly, but he didn't dare tell Mu Chengzhi and his wife about swallowing the Heart Flame.

  "Great, it seems that our Mu family has produced a martial arts genius!" Mu Chengzhi couldn't help but burst out laughing, his face filled with uncontrollable excitement. Although he had the help of Huo Yinxin, it was still impossible for Mu Feng to make such a breakthrough in just one month, which could only be attributed to Mu Feng's innate martial talent.

  In three months, Mu Feng advanced from the initial stage of Body Refining Realm to the intermediate stage of Body Refining Realm, a process that would take others at least two or three years. What is this if not genius?

  "Are you going to Luoshen Peak again?" Mu Chengzhi suddenly said with a stern face.

  "Oh no, I've let the cat out of the bag." Mu Feng silently cursed himself in his heart. He had originally intended to conceal and swallow his heart's flames, but unexpectedly ended up revealing the fact that he had secretly entered the mountain.

  "Alas, be more careful when entering the mountains next time." Mu Chengzhi looked at Mu Feng's flustered appearance and sighed, saying helplessly.

  He knew that Mu Feng going to Luoshen Peak was also helpless, the family's conditions couldn't provide him with better cultivation conditions, and his son was also helpless.

  "Thank you, Father. Thank you, Mother." Mu Feng was taken aback for a moment before reacting, realizing that from now on he would no longer have to sneak around to Luoshen Peak.

  Qīng Shí Tái's battle made Mù Fēng famous in Hóng Fēng Town.

  The next day, when he was practicing in the yard, Yang Zhan led a group of young men to barge in.

  "Yang Zhan, what did you bring them to my house for?" Mu Feng glanced at the young man behind Yang Zhan and then looked at Yang Zhan with some puzzlement.

  "I couldn't help it either, they asked me." Yang Zhan said with an innocent face.

  "Feng Ge, let's follow you and mix with you. We are often bullied by Jiang Yong and Jiang Meng brothers, but with you here, we're not afraid of them." one of the boys said.

  The young people brought by Yang Zhan were all outsiders, many of whom came from poor families that couldn't even afford to go to the Red Maple Martial Arts Hall, and often suffered bullying at the hands of local youngsters like Jiang Yong and Jiang Meng.

  "This, I'm afraid I can't help with!" Murong said hesitantly, still refusing.

  He was well aware of the gap in strength between himself and Jiang Yong, if they were to fight again for three rounds, he would undoubtedly lose. To have him lead these young men against Jiang Yong and Jiang Meng would probably not be a good thing.

  "Mufeng, actually they make some sense. Later on, Jiang Yong and Jiang Meng brothers will definitely find trouble with you again. If we gather the outside youths of Hongfeng Town together, it's not like we can't fight them." Yang Zhan said persuasively seeing Mufeng refuse.

  Mo Feng understood Yang Zhan's meaning, seeing the eager eyes of those foreign youths behind him, he thought for a moment and said: "Alright, I agree, but let them follow you, when necessary, I will take action, okay?"

  Mufeng's consciousness was that of an adult, he did not want to get involved in the disputes between some young people, even if the Jiang brothers came looking for trouble, Mufeng was not afraid.

  The young men behind Yang Zhan nodded in agreement with Mu Feng's proposal. Before, these outside boys were like a plate of loose sand, allowing the Jiang brothers and other local boys to bully them. Now that they have Mu Feng and Yang Zhan leading them, things should be much better.
