Chapter 33 Gong Yu

The scene on ba gua stage became very difficult to control. Of course, Zhang Men and the zhang lao in charge werent just watching. When Xuan Luo was about to make his last punch, the zhang lao in charges eyebrows furrowed. But what he didnt realize was that the punch would have directly landed on Zhan Feng Huas core; shattering it.

This situation plus all the conflicts from the years between the two Palaces erupted everyone to fight. Swords have no eyes (idiom: It means that when fighting, the sword cannot tell who is friend or foe; so a lot of innocent people could get hurt, I think). Chun Yang Palace and Zi Yang Palace are now fighting amongst each other. They are totally neglecting Zheng Men, who was on stage now.

Everyone, stop! The zhang lao in charge shrieked. The scene looked like a chaotic market place. At once, everyone was silent.

After a few moments later, finally someone snapped out of it. Chun Yang Palaces Wu Di looked directly at the zhang lao in charge and angrily fumed, Zhang Lao, Zhan shi xiongs core has has been shattered by him. How is he going to live from now on?!!

Actually, Wu Dis place in Chun Yang Palace isnt very high. However, he bonded with Zhan Feng Hua very well. During these past two years, he was able to improve so quickly due to Zhan Feng Huas help. Therefore, it make sense why theyre close. But whether its due to self interest or other reasons, that is unknown.

I will deal with this. You guys are acting like animals, do you think I do not exist? The zhang lao in charge scowled at Wu Di. Wu Di lowered his head and didnt dare to utter another word.

The words of the zhang lao were effective. Everyone was now walking down the ba gua stage.

In the past, there have been incidents where disciples would be severely injured and/or even die from battles. However, its very rare. In the past couple of decades, it has only occurred once. At that time, it was a very gifted but arrogant disciple of Zi Yang Palace. His condition was so serious that his five viscera and six bowels (these are traditional Chinese medicine terminology) experienced different levels of damage. Zhang Men was thankful he survived. An average person who has endured such damage would die, but this disciple was different. Hence, Tian Yu Zi basically flipped Wu Dangs medicine building around in order to find Wu Dangs most treasured item (by treasured item, they probably meant some type of rare plant/powder). But even with Wu Dangs best treasures and the different combinations of treasures, it couldnt do much for the disciple. They were only able to bring a little relief to his condition.

If we were to compare, the disciples talent was around Xuan Luos level. He also wanted to fulfill Tian Yu Zis theory. The only thing he lacked was the ability to cultivate nei li. Therefore, he could only put all his efforts in perfecting his style. His name was Gong Yu. Actually, those in Zi Yang Palace are familiar with Gong Yus name. However, one night, Gong Yu strangely disappeared. He didnt leave a trace.

As a result, disciples slowly stopped talking about Gong Yu. Thats why during Xuan Luo and Tang Chens talks, Gong Yu never came up. However, it doesnt mean that Tang Chen wasnt aware of the person Gong Yu; the reason why Tang Chen practices so hard is because he wishes to get to Gong Yus level. However, many years have passed and he still hasntreached ityet. Since becoming like Gong Yu meant so much to him, he hasnt mentioned anything to Xuan Luo (I guess he doesnt want to tell Xuan Luo until he has achieved it). In addition, most disciples have already forgotten about this person who had once reached the peak; so Xuan Luo definitely has no access to find out.

Tian Yu Zi, if anything happens to Zhan Feng Hua, Im not done with you! At this moment, Wu Ya Zi is freaking out as he sees Zhan Feng Huas condition. He couldnt help but worry. Although Zhan Feng Hua didnt give up his current powers to practice a higher xin fa, he is one of Wu Ya Zis favourite disciples. Within every Clan, there are always a few disciples that certain Masters like more; sometimes they dont even know why -Wu Ya Zi obviously belongs to this kind (sorry for the awkward translation, I am directly translating =_=)

Of course, Tian Yu Zi is very protective of his disciples. He treats them like theyre his children. Not to mention, Xuan Luo is definitely his type of tea. Therefore, hearing Wu Ya Zi say this, how could he hold back? Hence, the two began to fight again, and both arrived on the ba gua stage once more.

But this situation is definitely tricky and difficult to deal with. Could you really punish the disciple for harming his/her opponent? It doesnt seem right. Especially at this time and age, it is common to have deaths or injuries during competitions. They couldnt punish once something happens, right?

Everyone, back off! The zhang lao in charge calmly spoke out. I am going to handle this situation!

The zhang lao in charge went to Zhan Feng Huas side and pressed his two palms into Zhan Feng Huas palms; distributing his nei li into Zhan Feng Hua. Not long after, Zhan Feng Hua looked less pale. However, a shattered core could not be fixed. This is again why the core is so important to a Martial Artist.

Next, the zhang lao in charge announced that the competition was over for the time being. In the past, Zi Yang Palace had lost a talented disciple. And now, something like this is happening in Chun Yang Palace. If the situation is not dealt with properly, the disciples will talk negatively amongst each other.

Within the Tai He Dian, Zhang Men and all the other zhang laos were discussing about how they should handle this situation. The disciples from Zi Yang Palace and Chun Yang Palace were all standing outside Tai He Dian, waiting.

In charge, what do you think we should do? Zheng Men frowned. Although Zheng Men is supposed to be the boss, but there are things he cannot casually decide.

We should temporarily suspend the competition! I took a look at Zhan Feng Hua. He definitely has a lot of talent. But he is in shock because his core is destroyed. The zhang lao in charge felt a bit guilty, If I had stepped in earlier, I could have probably prevented this situation.

You cant blame anyone for this situation. Things are often unpredictable in a competition. Who would have known? Zhang Men tried to comfort.

Zhang Men shi xiong, you have to speak up for me! Zhang Feng Hua is one of my best disciples from Chun Yang Palace. I was hoping he would eventually pick up Wu Dangs highest gong fa! Wu Ya Zis face looks all distorted (due to the wrinkles) as he started crying.

Humpt! Tian Yu Zi responded coldly, Havent you forgotten about Gong Yu?

Once this was mentioned, all four of them crinkled their brows and sighed.

Gong Yu was definitely a huge loss to Wu Dang. He was once the closest thing to Tian Yu Zis theory. Sadly, he disappeared without a trace.

Then, all of them took turns contributing something; especially Tian Yu Zi and Wu Ya Zi -those two basically wouldnt stop bickering. Zheng Men and the zhang lao in charge were at a loss for words.

Fortunately, they eventually came up with a decision.

At the same time, all the disciples were anxiously waiting outside of Tai He Dian. Since this incident happened, it reminded Tang Chen of Gong Yu, and he decided to share it with Xuan Luo. Hearing this, Xuan Luo finally found out that at one point, Zi Yang Palace had reached a peak. He also decided to keep a name in his heart -Gong Yu.
