Chapter 69

From the strength of the attacks, Hung has blood leaking from the corner of his mouth and nose.

On the other side Twister seems to have a playful smile as he watches his opponent like a prey he is going to take down.

Hung wants to dodge away the attacks, instead he is pushed further and further into the corner.

Getting punches landing on him as his body wails in weakness.

He strikes an attack grabbing like a claw on Twister's neck.

Yet at this moment his strength fails him, as his asthma conditions return taking away the vigor in his muscles.

Seeing the lapse of weakness of his opponent, Twister pulls a hook right across Hung's face.

Following with a straight that pushes his head backward, becoming a punching bag as punch after punch lands on him.

Followed with a final straight that flungs him backward on the ropes, combined hook combos.

Seeing Master Hung getting hit down like a punching bag really filled Tony with anger.

Yet some people like Superintendent Wallace were cheering as they saw Hung beat up like a pulp as Twister flies hook after hook raining down on his frail body.

But Hung was unwilling to submit to defeat and was clinging on the rope as Twister strikes nonstop on his face.

"Master...Let go!"

"Master!"

The ref finally stops Twister from continuing his beat down as Hung flungs down on the ground in defeat.

The audience members all stood up in shock at the defeat of Grandmaster Hung.

His face was bloody as he lays on the floor with his eyes closed.

"Go home boys!" Twister shouts.

With his arms out in pridefulness at the defeat of an opponent.

At this moment of death many scenes pass through Hung's mind.

He could feel his strength losing as the feeling of sleep slowly overwhelms him.

At this moment a warm current runs through his body like electricity passing through him.

Wakening his dying pulse like a hospital's electric shock.

Checking that Hung still has a pulse they ordered to take him swiftly to the hospital.

When he began to open his eyes he could only see fuzzy black outlines of people.

From around he could hear the sobbing sounds.

"Mama! Look, Daddy is awake," her daughter calls out seeing Hung slowly opening his eyes.

Eventually he was able to see the worried face of Ip Man from his left, "Master Ip...Where is this?"

He could see the room was filled with his students and his family members.

He looks downward to see he was in some kind of white clothing.

He couldn't seem to remember anything at this moment.

"Are you feeling better Master Hung? After the fight they took you to the hospital," Ip Man says to him while his wife supports him to sit on the bed.

There were tears in his wife's eyes as she told him, "The doctors said this is a medical miracle! Master Hui also fed you a pill while you were in your sleep."

Hung sees Tony greet him with a palm over fist greeting. Standing in the front of the hospital bed.

"Master Hui your pill before the fight saved my life," Hung gives a kung-fu salute in gratitude.

"What pill?" Hung's wife asks.

Ip Man thinks back to the pill that Tony hands to Master Hung before the fight.

"Don't mention it. We are all fellow martial artists who should help each other out," Tony smiles as he replies.

"Wow, Senior Hui is not only a martial artist. But a miracle doctor," Leung who's with Ip Man saids.

"Our family owes you a large favor, Master Hui," his wife gives a bow. "Thank Master Hui children."

She ushers her childrens to give thanks for saving their father.

But was stopped by Tony who lifts them from the bowing, "I'll leave you now to rest Master Hung."

Saying that he bows before leaving with Leung and the other pupils.

The other master martial artists couldn't help feel curious for the mysterious young man.

The next morning the newspapers in Hong Kong were all publishing the news of the boxing match.

"Hung Kuen Grandmaster Defeated In Western Boxing Match"

"Grandmaster Hung Fought For His Country"

"Western Boxing Champion Was A Bully"

The boss of Wallace slaps the newspaper on his table shouting at him, "Wallace! You've seen what the local newspapers are saying about us? I ask you to organize one, one boxing competition. And look at the trouble you got us in!"

Superintendent was looking down on the floor to avoid his eyes while he was yelling at him

His boss is an American that seems to be in his 50s, has combed back white hair. Wearing officer clothing similar to Wallace.

"I'm sorry, Sir," Wallace saids in a quiet tone. "I know what to do. I'll take care of it."

"You'll take care of it? You'd better take care of it," he shouts. "I do not want to be in the newspaper once more for bullying the Chinese!"

"It's alright, Sir," Wallace says. "I promise. We will have no further trouble from now on."

Superintendent Wallace ordered Fatso to a newspaper studio to capture the head chief.

Fatso heads to a small office studio, the place is filled with stacks and stacks of paper tightly wrapped together.

"Sit tight," the chinese officer saids to the people working in the studio. "None of your business. Sit down."

Fatso pushes the door of the office, but finds nobody inside.

Looking at the workers who are in the small studio he asks them, "Who's the editor-in-chief?"

A man with black framed glasses wearing a business white shirt with a brown waistcoat and brown striped tie asks, "What's the matter?"

The editor-in-chief is Kan, the man who helped Ip Man find the space for opening his martial arts.

With his hands behind his back Fatso saids, "Take him in."
