    But the brothers possessed a fearless spirit, daring to draw their swords and fight with unwavering courage. Their three-section staffs struck high and low, east and west, striking heads, chopping feet, slicing hands, and tearing out hearts, preventing the Eight Vajras and Ten Bodyguards from gaining much advantage. After several more rounds, the brothers exchanged glances, adjusting their tactics. They formed a figure-eight formation, with one man attacking the front while the remaining seven attacked the upper and lower body. If the enemy's middle three areas were open, they would simultaneously attack the chest and back. The three-section staffs moved with unpredictable speed, disarming the Eight Vajras and Ten Bodyguards and capturing three or five alive. Meanwhile, Da Shan fought with increasing ferocity. Under his fists and feet, forty or fifty men had fallen, each scream heartbreaking. Da Shan didn't seem to fear anything, occasionally glancing towards Zi Xian. Seeing the Little Witch arrive to help, he put aside his worries and focused solely on defeating the enemy. The Little Witch couldn't care less about her brothers; she was solely focused on eliminating the self-proclaimed Ten Great Protectors, Black Wolf. If Black Wolf wasn't dealt with, the whole situation would spiral out of control. The Little Witch unleashed a devastating attack, a few swift, light blows like dragonflies skimming the water, white doves spreading their wings, striking Black Wolf's shoulders, wrists, and ankles with a series of crisp sounds. Of course, Black Wolf wasn't made of paper; as one of the Ten Great Protectors, he had some skill. Black Wolf unleashed his signature Hongquan staff technique, displaying masterful skill, first using the "Immortal Points the Way" stance, then spitting at the Little Witch and cursing, "You ignorant brat, quickly state your name! I never strike nameless rats with my staff!" The Little Witch retorted, "You little brat, you dare ask my name? I'll tell you, I am the infamous First Sister of Haimen Wharf—the Little Witch! Today I'm here specifically to take your devilish life!" After her outburst, the Little Witch changed her tactics; it seemed she couldn't rely on brute force or underhanded tactics to quickly kill her enemy. The little witch shouted, "Take this!" And aimed her staff straight for the black wolf's groin. The black wolf flicked his leg, preventing the little witch from catching mudfish in the river and saving his third leg from being chopped off by the staff. Suddenly, his body transformed; his obese frame seemed boneless, wielding techniques like "Heavenly Mountain Rushing to the Moon" and "Fairy Maiden Crossing the Sea," using the Southern Fist Vajra Palm on his left and the Shaolin Arhat Fist on his right. Every move was a masterpiece, its power, ferocity, ruthlessness, and insidiousness far exceeding anything the little witch had ever seen in her previous battles. The black wolf gained the upper hand, closing in with a move called "Boy Chopping Wood," gathering all his inner strength and striking down at the little witch's head. The little witch knew she was in trouble; it was too late to dodge. She could only resort to a desperate attack, relying on her inner strength. The little witch gathered all her strength and forcefully blocked the black wolf's staff. With a crisp "crack," the oak staff that had accompanied the Little Witch through years of battles was snapped in two, ending its mission of serving as her healer. The Little Witch, having taken a blow from the Black Wolf, nearly suffered internal energy damage and staggered back several steps. The Black Wolf's staff came again, striking, flicking, chopping, hacking, and slashing with perfect precision. The Little Witch leaped, dodged, and jumped, managing to avoid the pain of being hit. In desperation, the Little Witch hurled the oak staff at the Black Wolf, then reached for a handful of specially prepared chili powder, which she sprinkled on his face. This was the Little Witch's most proficient life-saving move, and the origin of her nickname "Little Witch" in the martial arts world. Her legendary moves, which became legendary in the martial arts world, included sprinkling chili powder, kicking his testicles, and spraying urine with a toy gun. Because of these underhanded and dangerous tricks forbidden in martial arts arenas, she was once scolded by her master for lacking martial ethics and making people look down on their school. The little witch promised to change, but in a critical moment, she would still use them, and even achieve unexpected victories. The little witch was young when she first used dirty tricks, young enough to be called a newborn calf unafraid of tigers, as heroes have always emerged in their youth. The little witch's master was originally an instructor in a special operations company in the army. The fighting techniques used by soldiers are supposed to be deadly, not the kind of boxing performed by martial artists, which emphasizes shapes, aesthetics, and arcs, showing the martial ethics of "martial arts," especially the "technique." Boxing should be free and unrestrained, yet aesthetically pleasing, providing an artistic enjoyment rather than being brutally harmful. The fighting techniques taught by her master emphasize "technique" while neglecting "aesthetics." It can be said to be without fixed forms or styles, seizing every opportunity, with countless variations, the best boxing technique is to strike the opponent. To put it simply, the boxing techniques used in the military have been deemed by those who call themselves martial artists as something neither fish nor fowl, a style that can't be openly discussed. And the Little Witch has even more insidious tricks up her sleeve. Do you think her master can face anyone? It's said that when the Little Witch was eight years old, under her master's guidance, she participated in the provincial youth martial arts free-fighting competition. This competition wasn't like the ones we see today, with different levels, weights, and styles; that's not free-fighting, that's just a performance. Real fighting is about encounters. If you're a 40-kilogram person and you encounter a 60-kilogram thug committing a crime on the street, would you intervene? Would you go looking for a 60-kilogram boxer to subdue the thug? That's utter nonsense. The free-fighting competition the Little Witch participated in had no levels, no weights, no styles; as long as you could defeat your opponent, you were the champion. The Little Witch fought her way through the competition and finally made it to the finals. Her rival for the championship was a ten-year-old boy, the last disciple of the Emei Sect's leader. He was almost half a head taller than the Little Witch and carried much glory, considered a promising future star of the Emei Sect by martial arts masters throughout the province. As soon as the Little Witch stepped onto the stage, the boy acted like the world's greatest young hero, ignoring the referee's order to gag him, and openly humiliated her, saying, "Little girl, I'll give you three moves. Beat me, and you'll be the champion." Enraged, the Little Witch leaped up and unleashed a series of moves—a cat scratch face, a black tiger plucks the heart, a fairy offers a peach—all forbidden in martial arts competitions, including strikes to the face, heart, and groin. The boy deserved his bad luck; he was hit by all three, kicked off the stage, clutching his testicles, and spent a month in the hospital. The Little Witch was also disqualified from the championship, and even her title was revoked. From then on, the name "Little Witch" spread throughout the Sichuan martial arts world. Her master was also humiliated. He said repeatedly, "I taught you to be ruthless enough, but I didn't expect you to be even more ruthless than me. I wonder how many people you will hurt when you are born into society."
