The Extraordinary Urban God of Medicine - Chapter 425

Chapter 425: Chapter 425: Boxing
Not to brag, but Huang Xiaolong’s painting of “longevity,” indeed represents the pinnacle of human calligraphy art. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that it’s unprecedented and unsurpassed.

It would certainly qualify as a national treasure.

One could say, this work of art has caused a sensation on-site.

However, what happened next is even more astonishing!

Old Master Jin wants to become a disciple!!

A centenarian bowing to a young man in his early twenties, requesting to be his disciple!

The reclusive magnate of Jiangnan City, a martial arts Grandmaster, is asking to be a disciple!

This is madness!

The world has gone crazy!

For a moment, everyone in the garden tried to dissuade him.

Especially, the students and descendants of Old Master Jin were even more panic-stricken.

This discipleship would disrupt the entire hierarchy!

For instance, Old Master Jin’s students, some as young as their twenties, while others are already gray-headed seniors.

Once Huang Xiaolong nods his approval, they would have to call him Master!

My goodness, could anything be more absurd than this?

“No! Old Master, you cannot give in!”

“Old Master, why lower yourself? This youth… What merits and abilities does he have!”

“Master, please reconsider!”

“Grandpa, you need not do this…”

…

The scene became chaotic.

The people of the Sun family felt their hearts skip a beat!

With just a nod from Huang Xiaolong, he could henceforth strut around Jiangnan City like a king crab!

Chen Xiong and Chen Zihuan were on the verge of collapse!

They intended to make Huang Xiaolong a laughing stock, but unexpectedly the situation took an incredible turn. If Old Master Jin really became Huang Xiaolong’s disciple, the Chen family wouldn’t dare to openly target Huang Xiaolong!

“Everyone, shut up!” Old Master Jin’s face was grim and he glared at the noisy crowd, “I’ve devoted my life to calligraphy. My greatest respect is for the artists of this field. This young man here… is well-versed in the techniques of hundreds of calligraphers, excelling in this art. He is like a divine figure… In learning, there’s no order of first or last, those who excel become teachers… I will become his disciple, learning calligraphy. What’s wrong with that? If anyone tries to prevent me from becoming a disciple today, don’t blame me for losing my temper!”

Old Master Jin is genuinely furious.

He holds Huang Xiaolong in such high regard in the field of calligraphy. Meeting such a person once in a lifetime is already a huge blessing. If he doesn’t seize this opportunity to be his disciple, he would never forgive himself!

No one dared to dissuade him at this critical moment for fear of truly upsetting Old Master Jin.

Silence.

The garden fell quiet.

“Please, accept me as your student,” Old Master Jin pleaded with a trembling voice.

“This…” Huang Xiaolong was in deep thought.

Old Master Jin is a martial arts Grandmaster, and the Jin family is influential in Jiangnan City. Even though Huang Xiaolong is invincible, it would be beneficial in worldly affairs to accept such a well-established person as his disciple. At least he wouldn’t have to deal with every minor issue personally.

Huang Xiaolong’s mouth curved into a smile, and he glanced mockingly at the pale-faced Chen Xiong and his son. Immediately, he answered Old Master Jin, “Fine, I will take you as my disciple.”

“Ha ha ha, thank you, Master! Thank you, Master!” Old Master Jin wept for joy.

The people of the Sun family felt an incredible sense of elation!

Meanwhile, the garden was filled with sighs and stares.

Some were still in shock, some envied, some were jealous, others felt like they were dreaming…

The students, disciples, and descendants of Old Master Jin were naturally unsatisfied and bore ill will against Huang Xiaolong. However, out of respect for Old Master Jin, they kept their fury inside.

Nonetheless, they will definitely try to target Huang Xiaolong after this, even if it means putting him to death!

A revered ancient martial arts grandmaster, an influential person in the Jin Family, and the highly respected Old Master Jin had just paid homage to a master in his early 20s. If this information leaked out, it would become a laughing stock for everyone.

Some members of the Jin Family glared at Huang Xiaolong, their eyes full of murderous intent.

Huang Xiaolong sensed it but didn’t care; he just laughed it off.

At this point, time was running out, and Huang Xiaolong had to get to the boxing ring to fight Wei Feiyang. After giving his contact details, including his WeChat account and mobile number, to Old Master Jin, he left with the members of the Sun Family.

“Young Master Huang… Your skills in playing the zither and calligraphy are unparalleled… Everyone admires you,” Miss Ying Aoshan said with a radiant smile as she approached Huang Xiaolong. “Would you like to stay a while longer so I could learn from you?”

Truthfully, Ying Aoshan wanted Huang Xiaolong to treat her for some unknown ailment she suspected she might have contracted.

“Hehe, Miss Aoshan, you won’t pass away immediately. Don’t worry, I will find time to treat you.” Huang Xiaolong grinned mischievously, then promptly left with the members of the Sun Family.

Ying Aoshan stood in place, watching Huang Xiaolong leave. A sense of loss crossed her beautiful face as she murmured, “Young Master Huang, who exactly are you? Countless men vie for Aoshan’s attention, but you disregard me, not even willing to stay a moment longer… Do you see me as a lowly being?”

…

Huang Xiaolong and the Sun Family members drove straight to the venue for tonight’s boxing match.

“Master Long,Your powers are truly vast!” Sun Hu, who was driving, exclaimed with sparkling eyes. “You’ve only been in Jiangnan City for a few days, but you’ve already subdued both the Ying and Jin Families… That’s incredible… Truly incredible…”

“The Ying and Jin Families? As far as I’m concerned, they’re nothing special.” Huang Xiaolong laughed it off. “By the way, how are the arrangements for tonight’s boxing match?”

“Master Long, rest assured, everything is already arranged. Our Sun Family also has a martial arts school in Jiangnan City, and it’s familiar with the underground fighting circuit,” Sun Hu quickly replied. “However…Master Long, please don’t underestimate your opponent. Wei Feiyang is no ordinary person. He’s almost a grandmaster who can carry a thousand jin with every move. Also, the higher the level of the fight, the greater the risk of death.”

Right, the more skilled the fighters are, the higher the chance of death, as even a casual blow from a master can potentially kill. Should you hold back even a little, you could be killed on stage.

Sitting in the front passenger seat, another member of the second generation of the Sun Family interjected, “Yes, Master Long, in our Sun Family’s martial arts school, we have disciples who frequent the underground fighting rings of Jiangnan City. They have a motto: ‘Once you’re in the ring, being merciful to the enemy is cruelty to oneself. It’s best to strike your opponent dead, or else you’ll be the one to die’…”

“Oh.” Huang Xiaolong responded with an indifferent nod.

Huang Xiaolong had no interest in these trivial fights. If it wasn’t because Wei Feiyang was too annoying, and he’d made offensive overtures to his wife, Sun Wei, Huang Xiaolong wouldn’t have bothered to accept this challenge.

“Since Wei Feiyang is courting death, I’ll oblige him tonight.” said Huang Xiaolong nonchalantly.

Sun Wei sat next to Huang Xiaolong, her delicate hand wrapped around his arm amorously, laughing warmly. She then leaned over and whispered in his ear. “Xiaolong, since you don’t mind the hassle, fight well… Uncle Hu and the others are worried about you… Actually, you only need to use a single lion’s roar to render that arrogant Wei Feiyang senseless… Hehe.”

Sun Wei’s breath tickled Huang Xiaolong’s senses, causing him to lose control and silence her with a kiss.

Sun Hu and the other person in the front seat pretended not to notice.

Soon, the Sun Family convoy arrived at a venue that resembled a basketball court.

They got out of the cars.

At this time, many well-dressed men and women were excitedly entering the “courts”, discussing amongst themselves.

“Tonight’s boxing match is surely going to be exciting. I heard that a master from the Wei Family is fighting.”

“How did you bet? I bet $10,000 on the Wei Family’s master.”

“Ugh~~ Only bet $10,000? I heard the opponent is a low-ranking rookie. Even at a one-to-one odds, you can still earn a lot. I bet $50,000!”

“Haha~~ I’m betting on the underdog. I heard that the Sun Family’s master from Binhai is fighting Wei Feiyang. I bet $5,000 on the Sun Family’s master. If it turns out to be an upset, I would earn several times more.”

“Upset my ass. How could it be an upset? Stop wasting your money.”

…

An hour before the boxing match officially started, many people were already discussing it outside the venue. The atmosphere was intense and gamblers were extremely excited.

At this time, a few burly men were standing outside a passageway into the stadium. They greeted Sun Hu as soon as they saw him.

“Brother Hu, you’re here.”

“Master Long, these men are in charge of our Sun Family martial arts school in Jiangnan City,” Sun Hu promptly introduced to Huang Xiaolong.

“So you must be Master Long?” The men greeted Huang Xiaolong with a traditional Chinese bow. However, seeing Huang Xiaolong’s youthful appearance, they had their doubts.

“Brother Hu, Master Long, Miss Weiwei… Let’s go in now. Wei Feiyang has already arrived,” one of the men hurriedly suggested.

“Master Long, let’s go in,” Sun Hu said to Huang Xiaolong with a smile.

“Hmm.” Huang Xiaolong nodded.

A group of people escorted Huang Xiaolong through the passageway and into the stadium!
