(Lady Fluttering Fist)

(Episode 22)

(Wei Chu)

Why are we still playing Weiqi at this time?

Whats wrong?

I don't feel well

Let me take a look

Your pulse is weak

You lack qi and blood

You haven't slept well lately have you?

I indeed have not been sleeping well lately

I've also been feeling really tired

Can you see if I have some kind of ailment?

Irregular heartbeat

abnormal endocrine

signs of impending major illness

No way

Keep bullshitting. I'll ignore you

Don't be mad

Sit with me awhile

Quickly come over

Turn around

What's wrong? Having a stiff neck?

Say it again

Don't be mad

Being angry is bad for your body, which will make me distressed

Distressed? You only know how to tease me

I didn't tease you

Look at you

You have panda eyes

I wasn't bluffing you

If you keep letting your thoughts run wild, it'll get worse

I just want to help you solve the issue

Your priority now is to practice properly

focus on preparing for the Martial Arts Convention

and don't travel alone during this time

I want to share your burden

Taking care of yourself

that's sharing my burden

hm?

Oh, right

Your turn next

forget about the board game

Principal, about the Tai Chi House being vandalized,

I've investigated. It was done by people from the Ba Qi Sect

Ba Qi Sect?

Now the Ba Qi Sect people are provoking our school like this

If we still don't act

their arrogance will only grow

Since our academy's founding,

noone has so audaciously caused trouble here

This incident

must be investigated rigorously

Tan Lin

as the Ba Qi Sect leader

is there anything you want to say?

Tan Lin

you are the Ba Qi Sect leader?

That means

It's you who sent people to vandalize the Tai Chi House?

Principal, though I'm the Ba Qi Sect leader, I really didn't know about this !

As the Ba Qi Sect leader

you're unaware of the actions of your members?

Do you think we'd believe that?

Principal, I really didn't do this

Say no more

Since

you're the Ba Qi Sect leader

Then we'll

handle this according to school rules

Principal

Tan Lin

Please

Grandmother, what brought you here?

Am I not welcome? I'll not disturb you then

Welcome ! Welcome !

This one's for you

Thank you grandma! Please sit!

Wei Chu, the Tai Chi House being ruined

hasn't affected you right?

Don't worry. We'll protect ourselves well

That's good

Most important, is to take care of your own safety

Don't know if the Ba Qi Sect

will do something improper

Don't worry. Piaopiao is here

She'll protect me

Piaopiao

As captain of the Tai Chi team, you must not be remiss

I know, don't worry grandma

I'll definitely do my best!

Oh, Grandma. I keep feeling my Tai Chi is missing something

want to help me take a look?

The basis of Tai Chi is in following the heart

and the heart follows the will

Regulating your mental state is most important

OK, I understand

Wei Chu, what are you painting today?

How about add a bit

isn't that better?

What do you think?

Grandma is right

The added bit makes it bloom

Looks great!

Didn't Grandma say add a bit here?

Go on

I already did

There

Grandma was referring to here

no, she was referring to here

Grandma, where were you referring to?

I'm looking

It's there

I'm your master

I can see clearly from here

Not here but there

Grandma was referring to here

Piaopiao is right. Listen to her.

See?

It's here

Alright, you paint

OK, then I paint

Grandma, it's here right?

(Fang Household)

Wait

Put it down. Carry on with your own work

Uncle, you're here

What gave you the aesthetic mood to invite me for tea today?

I'm a rough fellow, don't know anything about appreciating tea

How so, Uncle?

I heard you're a connoiseur of tea

Just a few days ago, we acquired some Duyunmaojian tea

but don't know if it's authentic, so I seek your help to sample it

see if this Duyunmaojian is authentic or not

Uncle, let me pour you a cup

please sample some

Since the Sect Leader says so

then I shall obey

Here, Uncle, please drink

Uncle, the tea is quite fragrant

Uncle

why aren't you drinking?

Have you eaten a bear's heart and leopard's gall or something?

Uncle, what do you mean?

You put poison in the tea

What do you want to do?

You'll know in a moment

You can't imprison me

If the Ba Qi Sect members find out, they won't let you off !

The Ba Qi Sect is only this big

Half of it is my men

Do you think

I'd be afraid?

Watch him

Wang Zhaotian, get back here!

Let me out, Wang Zhaotian!

I've gathered you here today, because something unfortunate has happened

The Sect Leader has fallen ill

What?

Sect Leader has fallen ill?

Wang Zhaotian

Don't talk nonsense. I just saw Sect Leader yesterday

We want to see Sect Leader!

We want to see Sect Leader !

We want to see Sect Leader !

If you don't believe, there's nothing I can do

He's contracted an infectious disease

No visits until he has recovered

He specially asked me to act as Sect Leader on his behalf

If anyone of you won't accept this

can come fight me

Whoever wins

can take the position of proxy Sect Leader

So

Who dares test his skills against mine?

This incident of the Ba Qi Sect vandalising the Tai Chi House

has been investigated clearly

We've helped the police

to apprehend some of the perpetrators

They've all admitted to being Ba Qi Sect disciples

but they said they're only taking personal revenge

no one instigated them

Where's Tan Lin?

Didn't we inform him to come to the Student Council?

Tan Lin is not in school

I phoned him. He didn't answer.

Don't know where he went

Ba Qi Sect vandalizing the Tai Chi House

He cannot escape responsibility

The school has decided to expel him

Principal

This incident may not be so simple

Please don't decide so hastily yet

Why

Is there something fishy about this incident?

I just feel we need to investigate further

Alright

I trust you. Let's do as you say

You've come

I see your recent training is getting too intense

and afraid your body can't take it

So I made you some tea. Try it.

You brewed it yourself?

Yup, try it.

This is honeysuckle tea

Yup

Tastes so good!

Slightly bitter, with a kind of sweet feeling

and a sour feeling

Tastes better than those sold outside

I added some lemon water and honey in it

which diluted the original acerbic taste of the honeysuckle

How is it? Refreshing right?

OK then, let's give it a name

From now on it shall be called

Cold Shoulder Brand Honeysuckle Tea

So refreshing !

Who drinks tea like that?

It's finished

I'll go pour some more for you

Wei Chu

Thank you

You're so good

Go on

What are you standing there for?

Xiao Xiao, are you thirsty? I'll go buy some water for you

OK

Wait for me here. I'll be back in a moment

What are you doing here?

Xiao Xiao, I did not injure you on purpose last time

It was because I had also been deceived

Really?

Sit down and we'll talk

I've found out

The one who killed Fang Ji, was Tan Lin's father

That old guy wanted to make Tan Lin the new Sect Leader

but in the end Fang Ji still named you as successor

That hypocrite could only pretend

to let you be the new Sect Leader

Actually he wanted to harm you

but then he passed away not long after

I'm here today to tell you

I've already overthrown Tan Lin

All that's left is for you to go back and take charge of the Ba Qi Sect

As long as you put this

in Feng Piaopiao's tea

I'll have 100% chance of victory at the Martial Arts Convention

The Ba Qi Sect will become the top sect

This was also the old man's wish for many years

With me assisting you

the revitalisation of the Ba Qi Sect is in sight

I await your return to the Ba Qi Sect

Xiao Xiao

What happened? Your complexion is not so good

Maybe because it's a bit cold

Here, wear mine

How about I take you to eat hotpot?

OK

Let's go

Xiao Xiao

is something the matter?

What happened earlier, I haven't thanked you properly yet

I heard this milk tea tastes especially good

So I ...

I thought it was something serious

It's alright, what's past is past

You-

What deep sisterly love

I've done as I promised

I hope you remember what you promised me as well

Little girl

You're so gullible

As expected of Fang Ji's granddaughter

You've inherited his foolishness

You can't even tell which words are true and which aren't

If you regret now

there's still time

Actually

who's the one to regret

is not clear yet

See for yourself

Turns out this act drew in a big rat

Xiao Xiao

I didn't think you really dare bluff me!

Why not

No one's afraid of you here

If not for Piaopiao and Wei Chu, I would really have believed you

This is the drug packet Wang Zhaotian gave me

What its effects are

I don't know

I'll get someone to check on this drug

In case we fall into his trap someday

The drug packet you gave me

is the same as the one used to poison my Grandfather back then!

It's you who killed my grandfather right ?!

So this was the loophole

I won't make the same mistake next time

You still want a "next time"?

The drug packet is in my hand

Since you all know

Come at me then

Wait

I don't want to take advantage of numbers. Let's meet him on the arena

Hey ! Wei Chu !

What are you doing? Are you letting him go?

but Senior Wei, we should end this today

Wei Chu

Alright

Then let's meet on the arena

The captain and I have a decision to announce to everyone

Xiao Xiao will join the Tai Chi team

And fight the Ba Qi Sect together

What?

Senior Wei, you're letting her join our team?

Yes

but Senior Wei, she's from the Ba Qi Sect,

not to mention its lineage holder !

First she wanted to destroy the Tai Chi faculty

and also harmed you and Senior Haiyang. How can you let her join our team?

Xiao Xiao's skill has almost fully recovered

Her enmity towards me

was all because of a misunderstanding

It's been resolved now

Besides,

Earlier, to research on us, she learned Tai Chi training methods

Her ability is not bad

she's qualified to join you

Also, breaking the family bias

is my wish too

Being open-minded and tolerant

Isn't that also a principle contained in the balance of Tai Chi?

Wei Chu

we can accept help from other sects

but

it cannot be Xiao Xiao

Enough

This needs further deliberation

Let's call it a night

Xiao Xiao ...

We should trust Xiao Xiao

If not for her,

I would have been harmed by Wang Zhaotian's scheme

Piaopiao, thank you

Wei Chu, thank you too

but let me say it myself

I admit

I've done a lot of wrong things previously

many excessive things

I've hurt you

and also deceived everyone of you

I was really wrong. I'm sorry. Really sorry

Really sorry

I could only blame myself

for not clarifying anything earlier

without investigating the truth

I had a misunderstanding about you all

but now I really know that I was wrong

I need a chance

Even more than any of you,

I want to personally end Wang Zhaotian

but to do this openly and justly

we must do it through the Nationwide Martial Arts Convention

So

I beseech you to allow me this chance

let me join you, and take part in the competition with you

Please?

Captain, what do you think?

What about the rest of you?

Looks like the Tai Chi team has found its fifth member

Welcome, Xiao Xiao of the Ba Qi Sect, to the team representing Tai Chi !

I will do my best !

Welcome to the Tai Chi team !

Although Xiao Xiao is not a Tai Chi faculty student

but as long as we get approval from the Calligraphy & Painting Faculty teacher

and the team captain's approval, then it's alright

Don't cry

From now

you five do your best

Better not cause trouble for us

I won't

Tomorrow we'll go see Grandma

Had you intended to rope in Xiao Xiao early on?

Nope, just suddenly thought of it

Suddenly?

You're so smart. Aren't you Zhu ...

... Zhu ... Zhu Geliang reborn?

Now that you mention it

Subtly I did have a premonition

that Xiao Xiao would be the 5th member of the Tai Chi team

Right ... you're the terrific one

You did well just now. With your support,

I have courage

Eugh ... I'm going to sleep now

Oh right, next time I go for a follow up at Dr Chen's place

I'll also buy you some

medicine for the ear

Are you going to sleep or not?

I'm going this way

Are you bored?

Good night !

We the Tai Chi Sect

definitely cannot take part in the Martial Arts Convention together with another Sect

If they see this

they'll say that Tai Chi has no more successor

Giving others a reason to scandalise us

is detrimental to us

But in current the situation

this is the optimal team composition

But Tai Chi has always been passed down internally only

To let Feng Piaopiao take part representing us

is already an exception

Not to mention, Xiao Xiao is one of the Ba Qi Sect

Your team composition

is violating the ancestral rules

Grandma Wei, it's precisely due to such rules

that Tai Chi keeps declining

Only by abolishing the family bias

can Tai Chi be brought forward

The future of Tai Chi, is beyond my jurisdiction

but I cannot just watch

the rules being messed with

Grandma Wei

I guarantee with my name and my grandpa's

we won't fail the reputation of the Tai Chi faculty

Grandma, I also guarantee with my name. This is an emergency situation

Please accept this

Grandma

Alright

Then I'll leave Tai Chi in your hands

Is your injury getting better?

I'm fine now

Just some minor scratch

Piaopiao, don't worry. We're all fine

We can take turns to spar with you

Regarding Wang Zhaotian

I've fought him

He claimed to have incorporated Muay Thai and Silat

These martial arts are usually used to fight for one's life in the underground

If we're not familiar with them, we could get hurt easily

Piaopiao

This Wang Zhaotian will show no mercy on the arena

you need to familiarize with Muay Thai and Silat beforehand

Piaopiao's movements now are very fluid

I'll go first

Please enlighten me

There's improvement

Let's continue

My turn

You have basically fully mastered the moves in Wei family Tai Chi

yet Tai Chi's emphasis is in the intention

not the techniques

You're still sticking to the current techniques

not yet fully realised the essence of Tai Chi

This way, you can't defeat Wang Zhaotian

The essence of Tai Chi?

Tai Chi is concerned with the word “Emptiness"

When both body and mind are empty

then you'll naturally realise its essence

Grandpa, how come you're here?

My good granddaughter is going to the Martial Arts Convention

How could I sit and sleep at home?

Lineage holder Wei

was my understanding of Tai Chi correct

Grandpa Feng, you've given us a great insight

What you've taught my granddaughter, must be good stuff

Piaopiao

feel properly the state of emptiness

you'll discover new things

OK

Don't run ! Stand still !

Where are you running to?

Leave my schoolmate alone !

What's it to you?

Our Tai Chi faculty is very strong!

Get them !

Feng Piaopiao !

Wei Chu? Retreat !

Piaopiao, thank you !

Piaopiao

What's wrong? Nervous?

The fights haven't started, you're already this frightened

I've never seen such a big occasion, can't I be nervous for a while?

Piaopiao, you must inspire awe

today you're the heroine

That's right, don't worry. We'll all support you

Mhm, do your best, Piaopiao!

Piaopiao, this one is for you

I specially got this from the temple. I heard it's quite effective

Fighting!

This is my lucky hairclip. For you!

Um, I have a watch ...

I won't add to the mess

Wei Chu

don't you have something for her as well?

I'll share my energy with you

Wei Chu, you ...

Wei Chu, you win

alright, we should start preparing

Welcome everyone ! to the long-awaited

88th Nationwide Martial Arts Convention's Competition Site !

Before I read the competition rules

let me explain a new rule added this year

After years of organising the Nationwide Martial Arts Convention,

we have established friendly relations with nongovernment martial arts associations all over the world

To better encourage the folk martial arts exchange across the world

The winning team of the Nationwide Martial Arts Convention

shall have the chance to take part in the Worldwide Martial Arts Convention!

Next, let's invite this year's host,

CMFU university's representatives,

Tai Chi faculty's team to enter the stage

Team leader: Feng Piaopiao,

Team members: Bai Haiyang, Xiao Xiao, Chen Bing, Yang Ningxue

Reserve member: Wei Chu

It's worth mentioning that

The Tai Chi team's leader, Feng Piaopiao

had received systematic Tai Chi training for no more than a year

and then she got the position of team leader

Her ability is not to be trifled with !

Next, let us invite

The last participants of this year's Martial Arts Convention:

The Ba Qi Sect !

The Ba Qi Sect team, through open martial arts contests,

defeated the opponents all the way through

and obtained the last invitation letter for the Martial Arts Convention

May you all have glorious martial fortune !

Next, let me read the rules of the Marital Arts Convention

This competition will span one month in total

involving 16 teams

96 participants

Every team will send out 5 main contestants,

through individual knockout format,

fight for the championship

If a team's 5 main contestants

have lost in the knockout rounds

then the team is eliminated

For the contestant who prevails till the end,

his or her team shall be the champion

The knockout rounds are all arena matches

The two contestants carry out a one-on-one duel

Victory is determined when:

1) A contestant falls off the arena

2) A contestant loses consciousness

3) A contestant admits defeat

Based on the spirit of meeting friends through martial arts

use of weapons are forbidden on the arena

as are behaviours such as sneak attacks and insulting the opponent

Each of the 16 teams has a reserve slot

If a main contestant is unable to compete

he or she must inform the organisers with at least one day's notice

and swap with the reserve contestant

There is only one chance to swap

All reserve contestants, after the opening ceremony,

please go register at the organisers' counter

Now, we will draw lots for the knockout rounds

The representative of each time, please proceed to the judges' bench

(list of teams. each is named after the sect it represents)

16 teams with 5 contestants each. One-on-one matches.

Preliminary: 40 matches. 4 matches per day. For 10 days. Out of 80 contestants, 40 move on to next stage.

(list of who is fighting who on the first 4 days)

What are you thinking about?

For someone of your IQ

you can solve the problem only if you say it out

Ok ok, your IQ is highest, alright?

Actually I was thinking

If we win the championship,

I'll have to go abroad (for the Worldwide competition)

Training plus competition, I'll only return to the country after a year

Meanwhile, I'll have to leave you by yourself here

What do you say we do then?

Aren't you smart?

If you ask me, how would I know?

Want me to go with you?

I'm thinking

if we two obtained this honour together

Wouldn't that be great?

If you don't go, then I, by myself ...

It would just be a bit of a shame

Like me that much?

Still won't admit it?

Aiee, stop looking at me

Ok ok

In the whole wide world, I like you the most, happy?

Always just teasing me

When I do go abroad for competition

you play with yourself then

Is it that if I don't win the competition,

I can be by your side all the time?

Come ...

Stop reading

Put it away

Let's sing, ok?

Hello hello ...

You have many toys

Just take it that it's a holiday today

Don't tell me you can't sing

Indeed?

(incoming theme song of this drama ^_^ "Fist with my Heart" by Bi Wenjun)

~ welcoming the morning ~

~ taking deep breath ~

~ dreams ignited in your and my hearts ~

~ Fearless ~

~ Working a bit harder ~

~ Both success and failure have extraordinary meaning ~

~ Step by step, slowly approaching forward ~

~ Move by move, solving all problems with you ~

~ No matter how much the resistance ~

~ I won't give up ~

~ Guarding this secret that only belongs to your and my initial heart ~

~ Take off the disguise ~

~ Become oneself again ~

~ Even if the world regards you as enemy, I will still ~

~ stand by your side ~

~ Holding fingertips tight, conveying courage ~

~ Say "goodbye, that timid little one!"

~ Making a wish to learn to fight by your side ~

~ Not fear that the path ahead is treacherous ~

~ Determined, with all my heart, fist with my heart, never to scatter ! ~

(full theme song is longer, but that's all for now ^_^)

Your singing was ... ok, I guess

Wanna sing another song?

Have you realised, that recently

Your playtime is longer than your training time each day?

Hadn't I been training constantly earlier?

Let's take a time off, ok?

Alright alright ...

I promise you alright?

For the Nationwide Martial Arts Convention

I'll definitely win the championship !

Don't just say it, do it !

Why are you so annoying?

I'm just ... thinking ...

When and if I win the championship

you'll be by yourself, I still have to go abroad

I want to make some memories of us together, don't I?

Shouldn't this be considered *after* winning the championship?

Not playing with you then. Sing by yourself.

Feng Piaopiao

Why are you still reading comics?

What happened to training?

Huh? You're here.

Sit !

I have fruits here. Let's have fun together for a while

hm?

I was asking you a question

I ...

I ...

My hand hurts

Muscles have no strength

It keeps shaking, see?

Seems like it needs rest

Let me ask you

Why is there differing grades of martial arts?

How would I know?

Haven't I learned everything?

Whether you've learned it and how powerful you make it,

are two different things

The time of the Nationwide Martial Arts Convention is getting closer

Do you feel

that you have time to waste here?

I'm just

integrating work and rest

I think you're just wasting time

Aren't I adjusting my state now?

If my state is not well adjusted, I can't fight properly anyway

On the Nationwide Martial Arts Convetion,

There're many contestants who have practiced for 10 years, 20 years

or even longer

Time was already not ample

How are going to compete with those people?

Do you have to say that?

Don't I still have time?

Do you actually know

what the meaning of this Convention is?

Whether we can break the family bias

depends on this event

Alright alright, I know

I'll go practice in a moment

I've said many times

In a moment, in a moment, I'll go practice

Now get changed, now

This is my last time discussing with you

Who are you trying to frighten?

What are you sitting there for? Let's go out have some fun!

Piaopiao

Hm?

You've rested for so long

Shouldn't you integrate work and rest now?

Integrate work and rest?

Go train in a moment

No no no ...

The weather outside looks reeaally good today

Why not we go out do some window shopping

buy some good eats

chocolate beans, rainbow sweets

lollipops, chewing gum

Forget it, I can't control you anyway

How about ... we go fly kites then?

Piaopiao

Hm?

I feel ...

We should split up for a while

Huh?

What do you mean?

(bloopers !)

brother Dao, gonna faint

(director): you scared me. I thought...

What?

What happened?

On his face ...

Sorry !

She's causing this, everyone !

... please don't

it's already swung out !

what's happening?!

(Director): OK, it's alright. Come.
