C451 – Culture Is a Joke

Sunn Zhe approached Zhang Xiaolong. Zhang Xiaolong had no choice but to raise his hand to meet his opponent’s attack.

The two of them exchanged blows, their movements becoming faster and faster.

It had to be said that Sunn Zhe had put in a lot of effort in practicing Taiji Fist. However, when he encountered Zhang Xiaolong, his skills were still not enough.

If it wasn’t for Zhang Xiaolong not wanting to embarrass him, the result of the fight would have been obvious.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

However, in the end, Zhang Xiaolong changed his mind. If he really defeated Sunn Zhe, it would not be a good result. At the very least, it would make him lose face. After all, Sunn Zhe was his teacher. Besides, Sunn Zhe had good intentions.

After thinking for a while, Zhang Xiaolong began to probe Sunn Zhe from left and right.

Sunn Zhe was also on full alert. Although he had felt that Zhang Xiaolong had some skills, he did not take it to heart at all. Now, he realized that there was a reason why Zhang Xiaolong did not want to acknowledge him as his teacher. After all, Zhang Xiaolong’s skills were already very strong.

Furthermore, he could tell that Zhang Xiaolong’s skills were not from a random fight, but from a master. This could be seen from his exquisite footwork.

If Sunn Zhe did not have a master, then it should be his family. There were many ancient fist techniques in China that had been lost. Of course, some of them were hidden in the people, and Zhang Xiaolong was likely one of them.

He had this kind of guess in his mind, and he also understood why Zhang Xiaolong did not want to acknowledge Sunn Zhe as his teacher. It was probably because his father did not allow him to acknowledge any other teacher. However, this was not a problem. As long as he went to visit Sunn Zhe, most of them would agree to it. At that time, he would have to subdue this brat.

With this thought, he became even more energetic, displaying all of the skills he had learned.

However, at the same time, he was surprised to discover that even though he had used all of his strength, Zhang Xiaolong was still able to fight him evenly. Sometimes, when he suddenly erupted, Zhang Xiaolong was able to counter his attacks with ease.

‘What the f * ck! What is going on?’

Under normal circumstances, when there was a huge gap between two people, it would lead to such a situation. Could it be that the battle between Zhang Xiaolong and him had been controlled by Zhang Xiaolong since the beginning?

Before, Zhang Xiaolong had been exerting all of his strength, but now Sunn Zhe had become more and more alarmed.

At this moment, Zhang Xiaolong seemed to be exerting his strength as well. His movement technique was even more unpredictable than before. Sunn Zhe could only barely maintain his undefeated position.

‘Master?’ Sunn Zhe smiled bitterly in his heart. Under such circumstances, even if he was Zhang Xiaolong, he would not acknowledge him as his master! His ability was stronger than his own, yet he still insisted on acknowledging him as his master. Wasn’t he just being overconfident?

If the two of them were at a draw at the beginning, then Sunn Zhe was now at a disadvantage. He could only rely on his instinct to defend against Zhang Xiaolong’s attacks.

Just as he thought that he was going to be defeated, whether it was his physical strength or his speed, he could no longer hold on. Suddenly, Zhang Xiaolong’s attacks slowed down. Then, the two of them clashed with each other and separated. It looked as if they were at a draw.

However, Sunn Zhe knew that he had lost this match. If Zhang Xiaolong had been using his full strength, he would have lost a lot. It was just that the other party had given him face.

What else could he say? You can’t even beat him, yet you want to take him as your disciple? Don’t be too shameless, okay?

“Xiaolong’s Kung Fu is really not bad…” Sunn Zhe was depressed, but since the other party had given him face, he couldn’t just ignore it, could he?

“Thank you for your guidance, Mr. Sunn.” Zhang Xiaolong thought for a moment and said, “Actually, I think that if Mr. Sunn wants to pass down the National Arts, why don’t you go to the Martial Arts Club to teach it? They all want to learn the real C Country Kung Fu, but they can’t find a good teacher.”

Sunn Zhe sighed. How could he teach Kung Fu as he wished? If it wasn’t for the fact that he was able to use the Taiji Fist, he would not have thought of taking him as his disciple.

Unfortunately, his face was swollen to the point that it hurt…

“Xiaolong, you should know that the real National Arts is not something that can be taught as you wish.” Sunn Zhe felt that it was better to explain it to Zhang Xiaolong. “It’s already amazing that a Kung Fu master can teach a few good disciples in his lifetime. As for the true essence of the Kung Fu, it is passed down to a few people. As for the rest, it is just like Taiji Fist on the street. You can only teach one stance, and you can’t mention anything else. If you continue learning like this, how many people will follow you and learn it?”

“Why not? The Martial Arts Club only relies on Woo Bing alone. Even with half-baked skills, he was able to recruit members, let alone a person who truly understands martial arts.” Zhang Xiaolong refused to believe it, “Without promoting the C Country Kung Fu, in a few years or even decades, even the C People would not know about our C Country Kung Fu. Instead, they would only know about the Karate and Taekwondo. When they mention the C Country Kung Fu, most of the C People would laugh at themselves and say, ‘It was all made up by our ancestors to deceive people. If it was really that powerful, why haven’t we seen an expert jump out? Why haven’t we seen a Kung Fu Club as popular as the Taekwondo Club? At that time, the C Country Kung Fu would really be extinct.”

Sunn Zhe smiled bitterly, “I know what you are saying, but the inheritance of true Kung Fu is not as simple as you think. Every circle has its own rules. Only by abiding by this rule can it develop peacefully. Once this rule is broken…”

Zhang Xiaolong spread out his hands, “Alright, this is probably the reason why I don’t want to acknowledge a master and step into this circle. However, I really want to know why the Taekwondo and Karate don’t have these rules? Why can they develop better than us? And now, many people think that the Taekwondo is more powerful than us, and that the C Country Kung Fu is just a bunch of fancy moves? China is a country of etiquette, but in this aspect, they are too modest!”

“Xiaolong, actually, this circle is not as simple as you think. In the real kung fu world, no one dares to look down on us C People, because they know that we have true experts guarding us…” Sunn Zhe’s words were interrupted.

“That is only something that only a small circle knows. When the C Country Kung Fu destroys the confidence of the people, our next generation will no longer think about learning the C Country Kung Fu. Is it really useful to rely on a small circle that only knows about it?” Zhang Xiaolong questioned, “Actually, many times, this is no longer just about the kung fu level. If our kung fu loses to others, our TCM will be spread by others, and it will become a cultural heritage of others. What will we have left in the end? Many C People now think that TCM is a fraud, and that the C Country Kung Fu is a fraud. What will happen in the future? In the beginning, it was only a small circle, but slowly, we no longer have our own culture. When that time comes, to claim that we have five thousand years of culture is a joke, even a dog fart!”

Sunn Zhe was stunned by Zhang Xiaolong’s words. He was just a martial artist, so he had never thought about the deeper meaning of culture. However, Zhang Xiaolong’s words seemed to be constantly changing.

The C Country Kung Fu was like this, the TCM was like this, and many traditional things were like this. People did not know about the Yang Festival, and they did not remember the Qixi Festival. Instead, Valentine’s Day was very important. Christmas was very lively, and then the Lunar New Year was even more important than the Mid-Autumn Festival.
