Guo An takes a deep breath and slightly nods his head, "You are so capable at such a young age. Swordsman as you are, you defeated my son without using your sword. It seems that my son deserves the failure."
Gao Ge laughs.
The next second Gao Ge strikes at his opponent with his sword.
Guo An gives a cold look and presses down his hands to urge his strength, causing a gust of strong wind to slow down Gao Ge"s action.
Gao Ge splits the wind with one strike and at the same time, the sword spirit spreads out madly.
Guo An wants to catch Gao Ge"s Flying Star Sword with his hand to show his capability, but when he holds out his hand, his body is covered by a chill.
He realizes that Gao Ge"s sword is rather unusual, so he leans aside and dodges the strike.
Afterwards, he tries to aim a kick at Gao Ge"s wrist so as to get rid of his sword and get the upper hand.
Unexpectedly, Gao Ge has seen through his intention. Calm and collected, he raises his sword at the critical moment and strikes at the leg that Guo An kicks him with.
It is too late for Guo An to dodge the attack. With his leg being injured, he throws a punch at Gao Ge to force him backwards. Meanwhile, he also keeps retreating. His gown has been slashed and his leg has been wounded too.
"What a fierce sword method! It is diversified, overbearing and brutal…" Guo An takes a deep breath and feels a bit surprised, "It is rather impressive that you can comprehend the sword method and utilize it skillfully!"
Gao Ge grins and doesn"t respond to Guo An"s compliment.
After all, Guo An was injured by Gao Ge just now. If Gao Ge pays him a compliment now, he will regard it as a disdainful gesture.
"Come on!" Guo An doesn"t continue flattering Gao Ge. Instead, he rushes towards Gao Ge"s front in a big stride like a fierce tiger going downhill.
He throws punches one after another, stirring up gusts of punch wind.
He acts rather fiercely.
Faced with Guo An"s violent attack, Gao Ge doesn"t get into trouble. Instead, he handles it well.
They two get into a close combat with whistling punch wind and glittering sword light.
The onlookers also become serious, whose eyes widen in excitement, as if they are afraid to leave out any detail.
Fei Yang has stood up and then he quietly comes to Guo Liang.
"Liang, let"s give him a sneak attack…"
"Shut up!" Guo Liang becomes furious about Fei Yang"s words and slaps him in the face, "My father is fighting with him. We must stay out of it. It is quite lucky and beneficial for us to see two capable men competing. How dare you want to throw a sneak attack at Gao Ge off guard? Hum. Get lost! Go away, or I will kill you!"
Having been scolded by Guo Liang, Fei Yang is even angrier but he can"t do anything about it.
He has a feeling that if he rushes forward to give a surprise attack, he will be slashed into pieces by the sword.
Bang!
Guo An"s iron fist and Gao Ge"s sword are hit against each other, causing the sound of metal clanking.
Then they two retreat in gasps at the same time.
"Mr. Guo"s fist method is so impressive!" Gao Ge really means it.
He has learned the Thunder Fist of the Xia Family.
In his view, the fist method that Guo An is practicing is not inferior to the Thunder Fist and furthermore, it is more overbearing.
Especially when Guo An is practicing it, Gao Ge feels as if he were fighting with a fierce tiger.
"Ha ha. Great! Come on!"
Guo An shouts and aims another punch at Gao Ge.
Gao Ge immediately dodges it and yet, the punch wind generated at that moment forces him to keep retreating.
Guo An continues charging forward nonstop like a dashing ox. The stone bricks under his feet are cracked one after another.
With a stern look, Gao Ge reaches out his sword, which becomes pliable as a snake.
As the sword glitters, Gao Ge steps in a marvelous manner with constantly changed moves. Sometimes he draws a distance from Guo An while sometimes, he goes for a close combat.
With a frown, Guo An stares at Gao Ge and meanwhile thinks about his moves. He has a sudden flash of inspiration and says directly, "Is this the Ghost-like Steps of the Shadow School?"
"Mr. Guo, you have a good eye." Gao Ge says with a smile.
"Are you under the Shadow School?" Guo An says curiously, "The people of Shadow School always approach without casting a shadow and leave without leaving a trace…"
"I do not belong to the Shadow School." Gao Ge has seen through Guo An"s thinking so he says frankly, "Mr. Guo, just rest a.s.sured. Even if you hurt me, the Shadow School won"t seek revenge on you."
With his thought being exposed, Guo An instantly blushes and hastens to cough so as to cover his embarra.s.sment. Then he has his hands cupped together in front of his chest, saying, "May I know where you learn the Ghost-like Steps of the Shadow School and master it to this great extent?"
Now it is Gao Ge who feels embarra.s.sed.
Even he has idea when he masters the Ghost-like Steps to the great extent.
If he nods his head and admits that, he will feel that his conscience stirs.
"Young fellow, your sword method is also quite special. May I know who your master is?" Guo An asks again.
"It is Heaven Shaking Sword Method." Gao Ge says.
"Heaven Shaking Sword Method?" Guo An is astonished with his eyes almost popped out, "Isn"t that the sword method of the Xiaoshan Sword Sect? Are you the apprentice of the Xiaoshan Sword Sect?"
Gao Ge shakes his head again and says smilingly, "Both the Ghost-like Steps and Heaven Shaking Sword Method were gained by coincidence."
However, Guo An is even more puzzled.
The Ghost-like Steps and Heaven Shaking Sword Method are both advanced martial arts skills in the cultivation world.
It is totally beyond comprehension that Gao Ge can have both of them.
Guo An doesn"t believe the saying of "gained by coincidence" at all. In no way can an ordinary person have such an opportunity.
He takes a deep breath and bows to Gao Ge with joined hands, "You are adept at martial arts skills. I will lose if we go on fighting anyway. Hence, let"s put it to an end now."
That"s to say, he quits and admits defeat.
Gao Ge is relieved too.
Guo An"s fists and kicks are really powerful in an overwhelming imposing manner, featuring strength and fierceness. If Gao Ge keeps fighting with him, he will fall into a fl.u.s.ter even if he wins.
Now it is a perfect moment to end the fight.
"Young fellow, would you like a chat in the room?"
Gao Ge smiles, "Sure, sure." Well, his way of speaking is becoming a bit like Guo An"s then.
The several men behind Guo An gaze at Gao Ge in a weird look.
After they enter the room, Guo An suddenly thinks of something. He takes a look at Guo Liang, saying, "I"ll give you some time to think about it and then tell me what on earth has happened."
Guo Liang nods his head and glimpses with the corner of his eyes. Then he rushes forward quickly to drag Fei Yang back and throws him to the ground, who is going to escape while being unnoticed.
"Were you trying to flee? Behave yourself!" Guo Liang says furiously.
Everyone is seated. Someone even brings them tea. Gao Ge looks rather calm while Gao Ming keeps looking around, feeling that Guo An changes his att.i.tude too fast. Guo An just confronted them with daggers and now he just sits down and talks with them peacefully. When Gao Ge is about to drink the tea, Gao Ming keeps winking at Gao Ge. He is rather angry, believing that his son is so inexperienced that he should be so careless about the tea. In Gao Ming"s eyes, Guo An may poison them out of hatred!
Gao Ge doesn"t know whether to cry or to laugh.
According to Guo An, Gao Ge learns that he is a cultivator with the realm of Strength Protection. He feels even more astonished.
After he has opened three martial meridians, now is he able to confront cultivators with the realm of Strength Protection?
