"Rubbish!" scolded Sha Tongtian. He knew the Huang Rong had already been teasing and making fun of Hou Tonghai for some time before tonight. He figured that she must have picked up the 'Night Trident Searches the Sea!' from her earlier encounters fighting with Hou Tonghai.
Peng Lianhu couldn't suppress a laugh as he whirled around to attack again. Huang Rong turned obliquely to the left and without bending a knee or taking a step suddenly 'moved' to the side.
Hou Tonghai again exclaimed, "'Change form exchange place'!, Senior Brother, did you teach her that?"
Sha Tonghai again scolded him saying, "Can you shut up – okay? Always saying stupid things!" However, inside he couldn't help but admire Huang Rong's intelligence and skill in learning the basics of such a move after only having seen it once. Even if the execution of the move wasn't entirely correct, she had been able to dodge Peng Lianhu's strike. Amazing achievement!
As the fight continued Huang Rong attacked using the "Soul smashing knife" followed by the 'Soul Snatching Whip" strikes. When Hou Tonghai saw these attacks and heard her call out, "Yi Yi Yi" with each strike he couldn't help but call out, "Senior Brother! This brat must be from out school…" If he didn't see Sha Tonghai's face growing angrier by the minute he would have again called out the name of the sects moves.
Peng Lianhu was also getting angrier. He thought to himself, "So far I've been kind and have shown mercy with my attacks, but this girl is craftier than a witch. If I don't start using more vicious attacks I run the chance of not forcing her to reveal her true style."
Martial Artists, after training in their chosen style may pick up moves from other styles and over time can even become quite proficient at them. However, in a life and death struggle, they will always return to their roots and use the style that they first learnt and are most familiar with.
Peng Lianhu's first four strikes had been mild and contained no desire to injure. However from his fifth strike his moves became like a whirlwind. When all the spectators saw his moves take on a vicious turn they couldn't help but become worried for Huang Rong. Everyone had not idea of her background and although she had been stubborn, no one actually had any real grievance against her or wanted to see such a young, pretty and charming girl come to any harm.
No one except for Hou Tonghai that is, who actually thought, "The sooner the ***** (brat) is dead the better!"
Huang Rong continued hide her style by using strikes from Wanyan Kang's 'CompleteTruthSchool' and Guo Jing's 'Southern Mountain Fists' style. She had only just learnt these moves by seeing them earlier the same day when Guo Jing and Wanyan Kang fought using them on the stage. For the seventh move she even used Peng Lianhu's 'Triple Linked Penetration' that she first saw only six moves ago! However now it was getting more and more dangerous. Even in a straight fight with Huang Rong using all her strength and true skills against Peng Lianhu she would not be able to prevail, how could she expect to survive using tricks picked up by observing others? She was gambling against the fact that even though he was using the most vicious strokes that he wouldn't actually go so far as to kill her.
"This little girl is remarkably smart. She can hold herself against that Peng guy's fists. Ayo. Watch out, watch out. Why haven't you dodged left?"
Peng Lianhu's style used a brilliant mixture of false (i.e. feints) and real strikes, which he was able to switch between at will. On the eighth move he made a feint with his left and a real lunge with his right. Huang Rong expected him to do the opposite on the next move and feint with his right whilst attacking with his left. This meant that she ought to dodge to her right, but when she heard Ouyang Ke call out she immediately changed her mind and leapt elegantly to the left. This sudden posture was exquisite, and it turned out that nobody in the crowd recognized it.
When Peng Lianhu heard Ouyang Ke's crucial word of help he became furious. He thought, "Do you think that I wont kill you if I have to you stupid girl!" His nickname wasn't 'Slaughterer of a Thousand Hands' for nothing. He had an extremely cruel nature when angry. At first when he saw Huang Rong he thought that she being so young, and a girl, it would be shameful to kill her, but now at the second last move of the contest and still yet to find her real School/Style, he was so angry that he no longer cared. He struck with 'Push open the window and watch the moon' using all his force, left hand "Yin," right hand "Yang," one soft, one hard, both simultaneously pushing out.
Huang Rong knew that things were desperate now. She stepped back as she saw his fists coming toward her face. All that she could do was to duck her head, bend both her arms, point both elbows forwards and strike at his chest.
Peng Lianhu expected her to try and block this strike and intended to follow up with the tenth stroke. However he was taken aback that she should actually try a counter attack against such a vicious strike. He had already half executed the tenth strike 'Falling Star Great Void', but immediately concentrated his internal energy to stop his strike like trying to reign a horse back from tipping over a cliff. "You are a disciple of 'Twin Killers of the Dark Winds!'" he cried out with a shiver in his voice.
Huang Rong leapt back several feet. When Peng Lianhu called out these words a wave of fear went through the room. Everyone present, with the exception of Price Zhao knew of the dreaded 'Twin Killers of the Dark Winds'. Even the feared 'Slaughterer of a Thousand Hands' Peng was afraid to touch her now.
Before Huang Rong could say anything a cry sounded in the still night air. It was Guo Jing, and he sounded as if he was in real danger. Huang Rong was suddenly concerned about his safety and her face went white with fear.
Guo Jing's arms and legs were all held down by Liang Ziwong. He wasn't able to move an inch but as he saw Liang Ziwong coming closer ready to bite his throat he suddenly felt a surge of strength born of desperation and executing 'Carp Arching Backwards' he was able to free himself and leap upright. Liang Ziwong quickly struck again. Guo Jing tried to leap forward (away from Liang Ziwong) but Liang Ziwong's speed was like the wind and there was no way Guo Jing could escape it.
"Smack!" the punch hit him square on his back and was not at all like the earlier punches from Wanyan Kang. This one felt like it penetrated to the bone. Guo Jing was frightened out of his wits and didn't stop for another hit but continued running straight ahead, away from everyone. His 'Jing Gong' (light foot skill) ability was very good and he used it to maximum ability to speed through the trees and rookeries of the garden. Liang Ziwong was not able to keep pace.
Guo Jing initially ran very fast but after a short while felt himself growing slower and he began to pant heavily. There was a big hole torn in the back of his gown and he felt pain from where he had been hit. He thought that the Liang Ziwong's last punch must have actually been a claw and taken some of his flesh away along with the back of his cloak. He was very worried now and looked frantically for some place to hide. Straight ahead was the Consort Wang's shabby compound. He rushed in with the hope that they wouldn't search there and he might be able to make his escape later. He lay down behind the wall at the back and didn't dare to move a muscle. Soon he heard Liang Ziwong and Wanyan Kang, one calling the other answering, coming closer. Liang Ziwong was so angry he couldn't control his voice as he called out.
