Chapter 751 Officially Accepting Disciples
Chapter 751 Officially Accepting Disciples
Time soon came to the date that Lu Cheng and the Huo family had agreed on to accept him as a disciple. Early in the morning, Lu Cheng changed into a formal slim-fitting dress, got in the car sent by the Huo family, and headed to the place prepared by the Huo family for his apprenticeship.
Since the Huo family is one of the top wealthy families in Hong Kong, as well as the chairman of the Hong Kong Chamber of Commerce, they also have the closest ties with their superiors in the mainland. Their status in Hong Kong, China, and Southeast Asia is very high.
Therefore, the apprenticeship ceremony of the third daughter of the Huo family was also held in a grand manner. Not only were some famous martial artists and business celebrities from Hong Kong invited, but also some martial artists from the mainland. Among them was one of the Three Tigers of Guangdong who was quite famous in the southeast coast, the "Forearm Saint" Xu Zhen.
In the southeastern coastal areas, martial arts are more popular than inland areas. In addition, during the war, northern boxers fled south, which led to the spread of northern boxing to the south. As a result, there are many martial arts schools in the southeastern coastal areas, and many famous martial arts masters have emerged. Huang Feihong and Ip Man are among the representatives.
Xu Zhen is good at Tongbeiquan and runs a company with assets of over 100 million yuan. He has also accepted many disciples. Moreover, the disciples he accepted are all children of high-ranking officials and dignitaries, who are involved in both the black and white worlds and are very popular in the southeast coastal area.
After Lu Cheng arrived at the scene, everyone's eyes were on Lu Cheng. Seeing that Lu Cheng was so young, some were surprised, while others were skeptical.
After all, Lu Cheng looked too young, only about 20 years old, and his martial arts had already reached the highest level, returning to nature. His skin was as smooth as jade, and his temples were not bulging. He did not look like a martial artist at all.
However, although those martial artists were surprised and suspicious, they did not question it.
After all, this is the place set up by the Huo family. None of the martial artists present dared to disrespect the Huo family, and certainly would not stand up and cause trouble before everything has even begun.
Lu Cheng swept his eyes over the crowd. From the way the martial artists sat and lay down, the shape of their body joints, and their aura, he was able to judge the level of their skills and which style of boxing they had learned.
Sweeping the crowd, the strongest martial artist present should be Xu Zhen, one of the Three Tigers of Guangdong, who should be at an average level of dark energy.
However, Xu Zhen was already over 40 years old, and he had not yet fully practiced his dark energy, so his strength was about to decline. In a few years, when he turned 50, his strength would inevitably decline rapidly.
As if he noticed Lu Cheng's gaze, Xu Zhen felt very uncomfortable.
"Master Lu, please take a seat. My father is busy with overseas business recently and is not in Hong Kong for the time being. I hope you can forgive me for not being able to come in person."
Lu Cheng nodded slightly: "It's okay."
In fact, Lu Cheng also knew that he was just an unknown person at the moment, with neither outstanding achievements nor sufficient strength. Huo Qiyun and Huo Ling'er's father, as the person who was about to take over the power of the Huo family, would not easily show up.
Of course, Lu Cheng didn't care about these things. He just nodded slightly and walked towards the main seat arranged by the Huo family.
The etiquette of becoming an apprentice is quite formal. After completing the previous preparations, a host is needed to preside over the ceremony, which starts with Huo Ling'er washing her hands, straightening her clothes, reading the apprenticeship letter, offering tea to the apprentice, and performing the apprenticeship gift, etc.
Huo Ling'er had just come on stage and hadn't started to wash her hands when a young man standing behind Xu Zhen stepped forward and said, "Master Lu, please come in. The Huo family is a prestigious family, and the master that the eldest daughter of the Huo family wants to worship must be an extraordinary martial artist. Many famous masters from various schools have also come today. I wonder if Master Lu can show off his skills and demonstrate his unique skills."
Hearing this, Huo Ling'er frowned and looked at the man: "Qin Maojiao, this is me, Huo Ling'er, who wants to become your disciple. What does it have to do with you?"
"Miss Huo, there are many charlatans nowadays, pretending to be masters, and I am afraid that you will be deceived."
Huo Ling'er wanted to say something else, but Lu Cheng stood up and said with a smile: "Ling'er, since Master Xu and his disciples want to see my real kung fu, if I don't take action, others will think you really have the wrong master."
After saying that, Lu Cheng suddenly took a step forward. Everyone saw a flash before their eyes. Before they could see Lu Cheng clearly, Lu Cheng had already arrived in front of Xu Zhen who was sitting there.
The speed of this step was so fast that it exceeded the reaction speed of everyone's eyes, as if Lu Cheng was already in front of Xu Zhen.
Xu Zhen, who was sitting, was also startled. His hair stood on end like a frightened cat and he almost jumped up.
"Master Xu, do you really want to see what Lu is really capable of?"
Lu Cheng's voice didn't seem loud, but to Xu Zhen's ears, it sounded like a huge bell, or like a bolt from the blue.
With a loud snap, the wooden armchair Xu Zhen was sitting on actually cracked. Shocked by Lu Cheng, Xu Zhen had no time to react and sat down on the ground.
Lu Cheng's figure flashed again and he had returned to the main seat. It seemed as if he had been sitting there all the time and had never moved.
But at this moment, Xu Zhen, who was sitting on the ground in a disheveled state, had already proved that everything that had just happened was not an illusion.
"how did you do that?"
"Isn't this too outrageous? Why did Xu Zhen suddenly sit on the ground?"
After reaching the Dan Jin level of Kung Fu, one undergoes a complete transformation, and the explosive power has reached an incredible level. Every move he makes carries a force of thousands of pounds. One pounce can cover twenty or thirty meters, and the speed of instantaneous explosion is extremely fast.
When Lu Cheng pounced in front of Xu Zhen and landed, he stepped on the ground with one foot, which cracked the solid wooden armchair under Xu Zhen's butt.
Then he combined the "Hum and Ha sounds" with the "Tiger and Leopard Thunder Sound", which directly shook Xu Zhen's mind and made him collapse uncontrollably, immediately crushing the cracked armchair and sitting on the ground.
The strongest of the Hong Kong boxers present was barely at the same level as Xu Zhen, so how could they have seen such a scene? They speculated that if Lu Cheng had just attacked Xu Zhen, Xu Zhen himself would probably not know how he died.
At this moment, Xu Zhen's apprentice Qin Maojiao also felt weak all over. He was distracted by the aura that Lu Cheng had just said. He lost his courage for a moment, and all the strength in his body was dispersed.
"Master!" The disciples standing behind Xu Zhen were spared by Lu Cheng and were not seriously affected, so they hurried to help Xu Zhen.
After Xu Zhen came to his senses, he still felt a lingering fear. He quickly stood up with the help of his disciples and bowed to Lu Cheng: "It is Xu who overestimated his own abilities. I am sorry for the rudeness. Let's go!"
Facing such a master, Xu Zhen did not even dare to say a harsh word. Even though he was humiliated and had no face left, he just turned around and left with his apprentice.
As soon as Xu Zhen left, the other martial artists didn't dare to say anything, and the disciple-taking ceremony went on smoothly.
After the formal ceremony of becoming Lu Cheng's disciple, Huo Ling'er became Lu Cheng's true disciple and could pass on some real skills.
At this time, Huo Ling'er was actually less than sixteen years old, and she already had a certain foundation, which was a good age for her to practice martial arts.
