"Oh... what a coincidence, Boss Long, we meet again." Wang Qingyue paused, then responded with a polite smile.

As soon as Chen Yang heard Wang Qingyue address the other person as Boss, and then looked at his attire, he immediately realized that this person must be the dojo owner Wang Qingyue mentioned at the entrance.

"Haha, yes, it really is a coincidence. I just finished teaching, and as soon as I came out, I saw you here," Boss Long said with a smile, then turned his gaze to Chen Yang beside Wang Qingyue and asked, "Is this your friend, Miss Wang?"

"Haha, yes, Boss Long, we both came over today to pass some time," Wang Qingyue nodded.

"Oh, I see. So, Miss Wang, how about the two of us spar a couple of moves? We agreed last time to exchange a few moves," Boss Long said.

Wang Qingyue looked a bit awkward upon hearing this: "Boss Long, I made plans with a friend today, so our sparring will have to wait until another opportunity."

Wang Qingyue clearly didn't want to go, but whether Boss Long didn't understand her intention or intentionally pretended not to, remained unclear.

"Hey, it's no problem, I'll have a disciple spar with this brother here, and with your skills, you'll only enjoy sparring with me," Boss Long said with a laugh.

He didn't wait for Wang Qingyue to respond after saying this.

He called over an eighteen or nineteen-year-old disciple to come and practice with Chen Yang.

"Young brother, don't underestimate my disciple just because he's young; his combat strength isn't weak. Sparring with him, you'll definitely learn a lot," Boss Long said to Chen Yang with a smile.

He spoke amicably, appearing very courteous.

But actually, he was treating Chen Yang like a junior, raising his own status in the process.

Chen Yang could see through these little tricks easily.

"That really won't be necessary. I'm here specifically to teach Qingyue martial arts today, so I don't have time for anything else, let's skip it," Chen Yang politely yet firmly refused Boss Long.

Upon hearing this, Boss Long's expression immediately became intriguing.

But in only a few breaths, his expression turned into a half-smile, as if he'd seen through something: "Young brother, you're joking, aren't you? I've seen Miss Wang's martial arts, without at least ten to twenty years of practice, I'm afraid it's hard to instruct her."

"You say you're here to guide her, but may I ask, how many years have you been practicing martial arts?"

Boss Long's words were still polite, but his true intention was to say that Chen Yang was bluffing.

Chen Yang smiled and answered truthfully, "Just a few months, but I have exceptional talent, being half a master to Qingyue poses no problem, don't you think, Qingyue?"

Chen Yang smiled and asked Wang Qingyue.

Wang Qingyue nodded without hesitation.

Boss Long saw Wang Qingyue nod, and his smile became even broader, still with that expression like he'd seen through Chen Yang's act.

"Haha, in that case, may I ask for some guidance, young brother?" Boss Long said to Chen Yang.

"Uh... Boss Long, there's really no need. My friend is just here to teach me a little, and still has other things to do," Wang Qingyue quickly interjected to mediate when she realized they were about to spar.

Because Wang Qingyue understood Chen Yang's skills.

Beating Boss Long would be incredibly easy.

If Boss Long got easily defeated in his own dojo, it would be too embarrassing; this was entirely for Boss Long's benefit.

But unexpectedly, seeing Wang Qingyue so eager to mediate, Boss Long became even more convinced that Chen Yang was bluffing.

Thus, he insisted, "Hey, it's just some casual sparring, we're all martial artists, exchanging a few moves is quick."

"But..."

Wang Qingyue still wanted to mediate.

But this time, Chen Yang also spoke up.

"Haha, Boss Long is right, for martial artists, exchanging a few moves doesn't take long, it won't delay anything," Chen Yang said with a smile.

"Haha, Miss Wang, you see, young brother said it won't delay things."

Boss Long laughed out loud.

Seeing the situation, Wang Qingyue realized she couldn't say much else, so she had no choice but to agree.

"Alright, just keep it friendly, there's no need to go all out," Wang Qingyue instructed.

Actually, Wang Qingyue's words were directed at Chen Yang.

But Boss Long agreed to it.

"Yes, of course, Miss Wang, don't worry, I know how to control my strength."

Chen Yang wanted to laugh when he heard this.

But he held it in.

"So, shall we head to the stage? No need to waste time," Chen Yang said, stifling a laugh.

"Alright, let's go."

Boss Long nodded, then with a kick of his legs and one hand grabbing the rail of the stage, he performed a beautiful flip and leapt over it.

Chen Yang glanced at him, then took the normal steps to climb onto the stage.

The dojo owner's personal appearance on stage immediately caught the attention of the people around.

Those practicing in the hall gathered around to watch the fun.

Seeing the crowd gather, Wang Qingyue felt quite awkward.

If Chen Yang defeated him, the dojo might just have to close down.

"Haha, young brother, simple sparring is a bit dull, how about we play a little game?" on stage, Boss Long still wasn't ready to start directly.

Hearing this, Chen Yang curiously asked, "What little game do you want to play?"

"It's simple, if you lose, you pay for an annual membership here, and call me, Master, I'll help you improve your strength," Boss Long said with a joking grin.

Only the insiders could perceive his true intentions behind this act.

The people around were just watching for fun, thinking Boss Long was merely playing games, drawing in business.

"That's a bit much for a game."

Chen Yang exclaimed, then before Boss Long could speak, he continued, "But it does make it interesting, I'll take it on."

"Haha, good, straightforward," Boss Long laughed as Chen Yang accepted, and he clenched his fists, ready to start.

"Hey, wait, you haven't stated your losing conditions," Chen Yang halted him.

Boss Long paused upon hearing this, then said, "Well, the condition is up to you to set."

"Alright, I won't ask you to pay, just acknowledge me as Master and call me Master, deal?" Chen Yang said with a smile.

"Sure, that seems fair," Boss Long agreed without hesitation.

"Alright, let's begin then."

With the terms set, Chen Yang didn't dawdle and was ready to start immediately.

"Alright! Bring it on!"

Boss Long clenched his fists and assumed a stance.

Chen Yang remained still, standing there calmly.

The two stood frozen for two or three seconds.

Seeing that Chen Yang was not making a move, Boss Long decided to take the initiative to attack.

"Take this!"

He let out a low shout, clenched his fist, and lunged towards Chen Yang.

The punch wasn't strong; it was meant to test the waters with Chen Yang.

Chen Yang could easily see through such small moves.
