Chapter 14: Cruelly Torture Miura, Bearing Humiliation and Burden
Karate is a traditional Japanese martial art that combines elements of the Ryukyu style of 'Tang Shou'.
Tang Shou (唐手) is a style of Chinese martial arts that was introduced to Ryukyu and developed by combining with the local martial art of Ryukyu Shou (極隨鉄).
Therefore, karate has elements of Chinese martial arts.
Miura's karate skills can be said to be among the best.
He arrogantly believed that if Li Yao could take on thirty people at once, he could do the same.
Therefore, he may not necessarily lose to Li Yao.
However, as soon as he clashed with Li Yao, he realized he was wrong, and very wrong.
He discovered that Li Yao was very fast, so fast that it dazzled him.
He also discovered that Li Yao was very strong, with great force and weight, like a mountain pressing down on him and making it hard for him to breathe.
He further discovered that Li Yao's skills were very strange. No matter how fast his punches and kicks were, Li Yao could always easily neutralize his attacks with strange methods.
He was shocked to discover that Li Yao also knew 'karate', and that his skill in karate was even higher than his own.
Although Miura's karate skills were very high, in Li Yao's eyes, Miura's karate was still lacking, and compared with Ip Man's Wing Chun, they were not even on the same level.
Even Ip Man was no match for Li Yao, let alone Miura.
Li Yao spotted an opening in Miura's defenses and delivered a punch.
boom!
The force of the punch caused the air around Li Yao to feel thick and viscous.
Although this punch was simple and unadorned, its momentum and power were earth-shattering.
Bang!
A muffled thud.
Miura was struck by the immense force of the punch, staggering backward more than ten steps before collapsing to the ground with a thud.
Press the attack!
Li Yao moved like a ghost, appearing in front of Miura.
A straight punch in the shape of the sun!
The fists rained down on Miura's chest like a storm, causing him to cough up blood.
"Stop, stop, stop..."
Sato started yelling at Li Yao.
But Li Yao completely ignored Sato's shouts to stop him, and his fists continued to rain down on Miura's chest.
Miura was beaten senseless and completely powerless to fight back.
Smack! Smack! Smack!
Sato pulled out his Mauser pistol and fired three shots at Li Yao.
In fact, while Li Yao was brutally beating Miura, he was keeping an eye on Sato's movements.
He knew that Sato was the type who liked to pull out his gun at the drop of a hat.
Therefore, he was always on guard against Sato.
As Sato made the motion to draw his gun, he kept an eye on Sato's next move out of the corner of his eye, judging the trajectory of the bullet.
As Li Yao's physique continued to improve, his reaction speed, the sensitivity of his five senses, and so on, all increased accordingly.
Now, his reaction speed is several times that of an average person, and the sensitivity of his five senses is also several times that of an average person.
In Li Yao's eyes, Sato's movements appeared to be several times slower.
In Li Yao's eyes, the bullet's trajectory also appeared to be slowed down several times.
However, Li Yao's reaction speed was several times faster than that of an ordinary person.
Therefore, he was able to anticipate the situation and, at the very moment Sato pulled the trigger, he had already made a sidestepping maneuver.
Sato pulled the trigger three times!
Li Yao dodged to the side three times!
It happened in an instant.
Thud! Thud! Thud!
Li Yao perfectly dodged three bullets.
Three bullets pierced the door panel, leaving three holes with wisps of smoke rising around them.
Sato and all the Japanese were shocked.
At that moment, only one word was in their minds: 'unbelievable,' utterly unbelievable.
Li Yao seems not to be human, but a ghost, an elusive ghost.
That's terrifying!
After a brief period of shock, Miura, who was completely dazed from the beating, regained his senses and a greedy glint flashed in his eyes.
He was determined to acquire such an amazing ability.
So, despite the excruciating pain, he got up from the ground, rushed to Sato, and slapped him across the face.
Sato was stunned!
Miura shouted in Japanese, "Baka! Who told you to fire? If Li Yao dies, I'll kill you too!"
Sato put his hands and feet together, nodded heavily like a robot, and said "Hai".
Miura wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, walked up to Li Yao, bowed deeply to him, and apologized, "Sato-kun was rude to Mr. Li just now. I apologize on his behalf. I'm sorry!"
Li Yao was stunned.
Is Miura a masochist?
I just tormented him so badly, and he actually came over to apologize. He's the ultimate masochist!
Miura was willing to go to any lengths to get Li Yao to become their Imperial Army's martial arts instructor; he could endure any hardship and any humiliation!
In fact, Li Yao's perfect dodge of Sato's three bullets had completely shocked Miura.
He never imagined that Chinese martial arts could make people so powerful.
It's absolutely incredible!
Therefore, he became even more determined to have Li Yao serve as the martial arts instructor for their Imperial Army, so that they could master such powerful Chinese martial arts and then their Imperial Army could sweep across Asia and dominate the world.
I'm so excited just thinking about it!
"Ding! Successfully acquired the 'Physique' attribute, Physique +6!"
"Ding! Successfully acquired the 'Comprehension' attribute, Comprehension +1!"
"Ding! Successfully picked up 'Luck Point', Luck +9!"
...
Just as Miura was getting excited, Li Yao was happily picking up the attribute orbs scattered all over the ground.
He discovered that since he enabled the permanent 'auto-pickup' function, the attribute orbs no longer hovered in mid-air but fell directly to the ground, thus not obstructing his view.
He can automatically pick up the light orbs with just a glance, which is very convenient.
This time, Li Yao squeezed a lot of money out of Miura.
Hehe, this is so cool!
Miura probably never imagined that he would become the target of Li Yao's exploitation.
As a result, he was brutally beaten by Li Yao for nothing.
Ultimately, Li Yao officially became a martial arts instructor for the Japanese army.
In fact, this was a crucial step in his plan.
He had already devised a perfect plan to deliver a fatal blow to the Japanese troops stationed in Foshan.
In order to complete this plan, Li Yao had to endure humiliation and first agree to become the Japanese army's martial arts instructor.
However, his forbearance and humiliation were seen by others as an act of treason.
Therefore, the news that he had just become a martial arts instructor for the Japanese army spread throughout Foshan.
The people of Foshan, who previously respected Li Yao, now scorn and curse him!
Whenever Li Yao appeared on the street, people would spit on his back and curse him as a 'traitor'.
Li Yao didn't care at all, because he knew that time would reveal the truth.
Chapter 15 The Perfect Plan, The Final Frenzy
On a large training ground, thousands of Japanese soldiers stood in neat rows.
They were squatting in a horse stance, practicing their boxing in perfect unison.
Li Yao walked calmly around the group with his hands behind his back.
Huh! An attribute-elemental orb has fallen.
Li Yao looked over.
"Ding! Successfully acquired the 'Physique' attribute, Physique +1!"
Li Yao was surprised to find that the Japanese soldiers also had attribute orbs falling from their bodies.
Although the number of light orbs that fell from them was not large, and the value of each orb was not significant.
However, its advantage lies in its large base.
There are thousands of Japanese troops stationed in Foshan. Every time Li Yao gives martial arts instruction to the Japanese soldiers, he receives a lot of attribute orbs.
