There are many periods of people who practice martial arts, and there are too many subdivisions, but there are only three rough points.

The foundation of the early stage, the actual combat in the middle stage, and the precipitation in the later stage!

Among them, each stage is extremely important, and the actual combat is the most important.

Without experience, there is no right to speak, and without actual combat, it is impossible to comprehend the true meaning of martial arts.

Only through the verification of actual combat can we clearly understand our own shortcomings, so as to continuously improve our martial arts.

Because the purpose of martial arts is to fight with martial arts, the subsequent sublimation is to seek a balance between body and spirit on the basis of martial arts, so as to sublimate oneself at the level of will.

But the subsequent sublimation is also based on the previous stage.

Because of this, both southern and northern boxing attach great importance to actual combat, and because of the current special period, this point is regarded as the top priority by various sects.

At this time when the country is in turmoil, the way of martial arts must have absolute practicality in order to really contribute to one's home and country.

This is also the reason why the martial arts of later generations have been reduced to watching, and the national art cannot find a way out.

The practice of national art is the strength in the body, slow and orderly, and there is no huge momentum, but the style of play is extremely vicious, attacking the enemy's vital points, leaving no room for error.

For this reason, the national art can shine in troubled times, but in times of peace, it is suppressed by various kinds, and it is difficult to find the key balance point.

"Young Master, there are two young people looking for you outside, and they say that they are disciples of Xingyi!" In the Ye Mansion Hall, Ye Man was drinking tea.

Ip Man likes to drink tea very much, because tea calms the mind!

He would drink tea every afternoon, either in the teahouse or at home, the purpose of which was to calm down and find the shortcomings in his martial arts from the calm.

When a person's mind is calm, he is often able to consider some things more perfectly, so even if Ip Man's martial arts have been stuck at the threshold before turning into strength for a long time, he still insists on thinking about it every day.

Perhaps it is because he knows how to think often, so even if his fist is still only a three-plate axe, it contains endless changes.

"Xingyimen, why did they come here?" Ip Man was a little surprised, Xingyimen's reputation was too great, even Ip Man had to be a little curious.

"I don't know this very well, young master, do you want them to come in?" the butler asked respectfully.

Unlike Ip Man, this old housekeeper is not familiar with martial arts, but he also understands that his young master often does not refuse people who come to visit in the martial arts.

If Xue Yang and Liu Qi hadn't said that they were from the Xingyi Sect, maybe the old housekeeper would have thought that these two had come here to apprentice, but since they had told the sect, it would be impossible for them to come for the apprenticeship.

Because Southern Boxing is different from Northern Boxing, it is extremely important to have a teacher, and it is extremely difficult to worship multiple masters at one time.

"Let them in. Ye Man took another sip of tea, and he began to feel that today would be a little interesting.

The Ye family's house is very large, with three entrances and a large foyer, but there are not many servants.

But this is not that the Ye family has declined, it's just that the Ye family is relatively low-key.

Ip Man's Ye family is called Pedri Ye in Foshan, Guangdong, which means that the entire Pedri is surnamed Ye.

How big Pedri is, you may have to ask the many residents who live in it.

Because of the great wealth, the Ye family's reputation in the whole Foshan is still very great.

And this reputation is obviously not limited to the business world, as can be seen from the wife Ip Man married.

Ip Man's wife, Zhang Yongcheng, is a descendant of Zhang Yinhuan, a diplomat who supported the reform of the law in the late Qing Dynasty.

Marrying a relative of a powerful person as a merchant was almost unimaginable at the time.

After entering the gate, there is a huge foyer courtyard, and then you can go to the main hall, and Ye Man drinks tea in the main hall at this time.

Ip Man drank tea very slowly, and tasted it gently and slowly, just like his posture when he practiced boxing, not in a hurry, not in a hurry, and not in a hurry.

After a while, the old housekeeper walked in with Xue Yang and Liu Qi.

Ye Man looked at it from a distance, and found that the young man walking on the left side of the old butler walked quite strangely, his feet went one by one, his body was straight, and he walked in the shape of a dragon and a tiger.

The dragon is on the back, the tiger is on the waist!

The dragon and tiger are already very imposing, and the so-called dragon and tiger step is this reason!

"Good boy!" Ye Man exclaimed in his heart, after all, he had been practicing boxing for decades, and he could see at a glance that Xue Yang's kung fu was not weak.

Even if he was at Xue Yang's age, he was afraid that he was a little inferior, because although he had good kung fu at that time, he was not immersed in it, and he was practicing boxing in every step and down.

When he was young, he was also vigorous, but now that he is getting older, he has collected a lot of impetuousness and began to concentrate on tranquility.

"Master Ye, meet Xue Yang!"

"Meet Liu Qi, Xingyi!"

Xue Yang and Liu Qi walked into the hall and bowed their fists.

"Please be seated!" Ip Man smiled back.

"Uncle Zhang, let someone bring some refreshments. ”

"Yes, young master!" the old butler nodded, and without asking too much, he went straight to the housekeeper.

"I heard that the two are the disciples of the Xingyi people, but I don't know which famous teacher's senior disciple?" Ye Man took a sip of tea, although he was far away in Foshan and had never been far away, but he also knew something about the most prestigious Xingyi Gate today.

In this era, among the three major internal fists, there are not many people born in Taijimen, only many masters of Xingyi Bagua Gate are all over the north and south, and they have done great deeds.

Although Xingyi gossip is not a family, because of the friendship between Li Cunyi and Cheng Tinghua in the past, the disciples are the same as a door, which is also the reason why the disciples of Xingyi Sect basically know Baguazhang in this era, and the disciples of Bagua Sect also know Xingyi Fist.

Communicate with each other and explore the supremacy of martial arts together.

Later, Zhang Zhankui created the Xingyi Bagua Gate, which further deepened the relationship between the Xingyi Gate and the Bagua Gate.

Premier Zhou's martial arts master Han Muxia is from Zhang Zhankui's disciples!

"The family teacher's surname is Gong!" Xue Yang replied with a smile, his demeanor was neither humble nor arrogant, and he was not inferior because of age and fame.

Although he and Ip Man have an age difference of more than 20 years, firstly, he lived for decades in his previous life, and secondly, the seniority of Gong Yutian is higher than that of Ip Man.

"Old Mr. of the Northern Invincible Palace?"

Today, there are not many people with the surname Gong, but only Gong Yutian is well-known in the martial arts world, so as soon as Ip Man heard that Xue Yang called himself a disciple of Xingyi and a disciple of the palace master, he guessed Xue Yang's teacher.

"It's the family teacher!" Xue Yang nodded.

"More than a year ago, Mr. Gong opened an incense hall in Shandong and accepted a little disciple, could it be that you are the little brother?" Ye Man thought of the news he heard in the Golden Mansion last year, the Grandmaster of the Gong Yutian generation had already prepared to wash his hands in the golden basin, but he accepted a closed disciple when he was old.

Such news, not only the northern martial arts are very concerned, but the southern martial arts are also shocked by this news.

And Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon in the Golden Building, they also know more about this situation, they know that Gong Yutian's new disciple is a young man who has not yet reached the age of double ten, and they also know that this young man is talented, because otherwise, Gong Yutian will not reopen the incense hall at such an age and accept a real disciple.

For Xue Yang, there are many speculations about the southern martial arts, but at this time, Ye Man saw a real person!

What an outstanding boy!
