Huo Yuanjia said this, slowed down his tone and continued: "What are we establishing the Jingwu Gymnastics Club for, if it is because of my breach of the contract that the martial spirit that I have worked so hard to build is shattered, is this what you want to see?"

"But Master......" Chen Yaoyang wanted to persuade Huo Yuanjia again, but Huo Yuanjia refused: "Needless to say, I will never miss the appointment in today's competition!"

Chen Yaoyang looked helplessly at Nong Jinsun beside Huo Yuanjia, hoping that he could persuade him a few words. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Nong Jinsun saw Chen Yaoyang's eyes, and naturally understood in his heart, he also looked at Huo Yuanjia's face with a worried face and said, "Huo Laosi, Chen Zhen is right, your body is ......"

Huo Yuanjia smiled and comforted: "Don't worry, I'm fine." Chen Zhen doesn't know, don't you know? This cough disease is not something that only happens in the past day or two, I am used to it. Besides, I used to cough when I used to fight with people, but how many times have you seen me lose? Believe me, I'm still me!"

Since Huo Yuanjia has talked about this, the disciples of the Jingwu Gymnastics Association such as Nong Jinsun, Huo Dongge and Liu Zhensheng don't know what to say, but it can be seen that everyone is very worried in their hearts. It's just that they are not worried that Huo Yuanjia will lose this competition, but that his cough will damage his body.

The disciples of the Jingwu Gymnastics Club have always regarded Huo Yuanjia as an idol, and they have long had a blind confidence in his martial arts. They all firmly believe that even if Huo Yuanjia is terminally ill, he will definitely be able to defeat his opponent and shake the prestige of China.

Only Chen Yaoyang knew in his heart that if Huo Yuanjia was not sick, but was poisoned by the Japanese, then it would be impossible to change history. Therefore, among all of them, Chen Yaoyang's heart is the heaviest and the saddest.

Huo Yuanjia and Ishii Hideaki competed at Pudong Square in Shanghai. A ring more than two meters high was improvised there. The two sides stipulate that when two people compete in the ring, as long as one of them is knocked out of the ring or knocked to the ground and cannot get up, the loser will be the loser, and if the opponent misses and kills him, neither side can be held accountable afterwards.

At this time, Huo Yuanjia, accompanied by everyone in the Jingwu Gymnastics Club, came to Shanghai Pudong Square. Most of the people who came to watch this Sino-Japanese showdown were Chinese, and they were all waiting to see the demeanor of Huo Yuanjia, a generation of grandmasters, and how he exerted great might, beating small Japan, and growing the morale of the people. Of course, the Japanese who were present must have had the opposite idea.

Next to the ring, a makeshift referee booth was built with bamboo poles, and five tables were placed in the pavilion, which were connected together to form a brief referee's bench. There are 10 referees in the bench, with four referees from China and Japan, and the remaining two from the Chinese and Japanese governments.

The role of the referee is to ensure the fairness and fairness of the competition, and to prevent anyone from making trouble and cheating in the ring, or using some underhanded means, such as casting concealers, sprinkling lime powder, etc., to achieve victory. Of course, there is another function, that is, in case the opponent in the ring is inseparable, regardless of the upper and lower levels, the referees can exercise their voting rights, will evaluate the morality, talent, character, conduct and other aspects of the champion, and cast the decisive vote in their hands.

However, the probability of a draw between the two sides of the contest is very low, and perhaps it can be said that such a situation is absolutely impossible to happen in this era! The contest in feudal society is not the same as the open boxing competition in the 21 st century, and the two people who fight each other generally fight for their lives, and if they do not put the other party to death, they must let the opponent break their arms and legs, otherwise they will never stop.

In addition, even if one of the warriors in the fight knows that he is invincible, he will do his best to fight with him for the sake of his face and honor until he falls to the ground with his last breath left.

In fact, in feudal society, there are many people who fight against the warriors who are tied, but the ending will be more tragic, that is, the two warriors fight with all their strength until they end up together. However, it is not easy to see such scenes and endings, and even rarely happens.

Huo Yuanjia and Hideaki Ishii walked up to the referee's table together, and first took a document with a life and death contract written on it handed by the referee. Huo Yuanjia and Ishii Hideaki signed the document together, and then the chief referee kept it, and when the competition was over, if either side was injured or died, the chief referee could use this document to restrict or prevent his family and relatives from taking revenge.

Chen Yaoyang was not very familiar with the confrontation in the feudal era, and everything he knew was explained to him by Liu Zhensheng in advance. It's just that there is one thing that surprised him in particular, that is, this referee turned out to be a Chinese!

Chen Yaoyang couldn't help but take a closer look at the referee. I saw that the referee was about seventy years old, with a pair of bright eyes, white beard and white hair, a ruddy face, and no wrinkles on his round face. The body is slightly chubby, the physique is strong, a white cloth robe fluttering in the wind, a Taoist fairy bones, and a crane with a childish face!

Curious, Chen Yaoyang looked at the table of the referee and found that the table card on the table had the word Song Shirong written on it. This name is not unfamiliar to Chen Yaoyang, he sorted out the memories in his mind, and remembered that there was this character in the "Modern Martial Arts Heroes Spectrum" that he had carefully read.

Song Shirong is a respected veteran in the Xingyi Gate, and he is also the senior brother of Guo Yunshen, a Xingyi giant who is known as the "half-step collapse fist all over the world", and has the highest seniority and age in the Xingyi Gate, and the prestige is also the greatest.

This veteran not only has extremely high fighting ability, but also has a high prestige in the entire Chinese martial arts community. The Song Xingyi Quan he taught also taught countless masters. Therefore, it is unimaginable that his prestige in the Chinese martial arts circles is unimaginable! It seems that the Japanese believe that with Song Shirong's prestige and status, they will never be biased, so they are willing to let him serve as the chief referee of this Sino-Japanese duel to show their fairness in this martial arts competition.

Chen Yaoyang watched the table cards in turn according to the referee, and the table cards of the Chinese government were written Li Jinglin after Song Shirong, Sun Lutang, Lu Songgao, and Chen Zizheng. The Japanese referees were Yoshizhen Funakoshi, Jigoro Kano, Kazuo Itagaki, and Hiroshi Ishii, and the table cards of the Japanese government representative were Nobuo Takeda.

Chen Yaoyang silently recited the names of these people several times in his mouth, and couldn't help but exclaim, I really don't know if I don't know it, I was shocked when I saw it!

Of these figures on the referee's bench, seven are famous martial arts masters of contemporary times. It seems that this Sino-Japanese duel is world-renowned and cannot be overlooked, so the referees invited by both China and Japan are all high-ranking martial arts masters.
