Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
After Sun Xuezhen left, Qin Ruoxi walked over to greet Mu Suifeng. “Mr. Mu!”
“Miss Qin, long time no see!” When Mu Qingfeng saw Qin Ruoxi, his att.i.tude was obviously a lot more familiar and different from the impersonal cordiality he used for Ye Wanwan.
“Did you enjoy the tea I brought you last time? I got some more a while ago; let me send you some!”
“Miss Qin, you’re too polite! I feel sorry for mooching tea from you all the time!”
“It’s nothing. Are there any places you would like to visit this time, Mr. Mu?” Qin Ruoxi inquired.
Mu Suifeng appeared somewhat disinterested as he said, “No need to trouble you. There isn’t really any place I’d like to go.”
Upon hearing this, Qin Ruoxi suggested, “The national martial-arts friendly compet.i.tion will be held in Imperial City in a few days. Would Mr. Mu be interested?”
Although Mu Suifeng was a businessman, he didn’t like antiques, calligraphy or paintings. However, he was solely interested in martial arts, so in order to adapt to his taste, Qin Ruoxi gave him her prepared excuse.
Mu Suifeng sighed and said. “I originally wanted to go, but this compet.i.tion gets worse each year. Instead of being called a wrestling match, it should be called a performance match instead, with all its superficial displays! I really don’t have any interest in watching it!”
Qin Ruoxi thought about it and expressed her understanding. “A compet.i.tion at that level wouldn’t meet your standards indeed, Mr. Mu.”
Thankfully, she had a plan B.
Hence, Qin Ruoxi continued to say, “Since Mr. Mu isn’t interested in that kind of performance match, what about a martial arts conference?”
Mu Suifeng probed, “Martial arts conference?”
“That’s right. Mr. Mu, do you know Mr. Sun Lizhong?” Qin Ruoxi asked.
Mu Suifeng promptly replied, “The current head of the famous martial-arts patrician family of China, the Sun family? Of course I know him! What, do you know him?”
Qin Ruoxi said, “Uncle Sun is a long time friend of my family, so I know him. Uncle Sun just invited a Muay Thai expert from overseas to stay with our family. Uncle Sun has some plans to hold a martial arts conference and invite some experts from China to compare notes with that Muay Thai expert!”
Upon hearing this, Mu Suifeng’s eyes glinted. “Who is this Muay Thai expert you speak of?”
“It’s the champion of the last MMA champions.h.i.+p, Senny!” Qin Ruoxi answered.
Upon hearing this, even Ye Wanwan raised her brows and she looked at Qin Ruoxi with interest.
“Wolf King Senny?” Ye Wanwan reflexively asked.
Qin Ruoxi nodded and said, “That’s right, that’s him. You’ve also heard of him, Miss Ye?”
Ye Wanwan replied, “I watched his matches.”
Ever since Ye Wanwan discovered her talents in martial arts, she learned a lot of information related to it and occasionally watched some matches.
MMA stood for mixed martial arts and was a full combat sport with fairly loose rules. A match allowed the fighters to use a large variety of disciplines like boxing, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, Muay Thai, wrestling, karate, judo, Sanda, Jeet Kune Do, etc. It treated all disciplines equally, and pract.i.tioners from different disciplines could fight in the same arena.
To put it simply, a fight wasn’t separated by the different styles of fighting. You could use any fighting technique as long as you could defeat your opponent.
In this kind of compet.i.tion, Muay Thai and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu fighters dominated and won the most matches. In the wrestling world, there was a saying: “One would rather see the King of Yama than the King of Muay Thai.”
Senny was a world-famous Muay Thai fighter and obtained the t.i.tle “Wolf King” due to his ferocious style and vicious techniques.
