Sun Lutang and the Japanese have a duel
Sun Lutang had fought with the Japanese before. In 1920, Kazuo Sakagaki, a samurai appointed by the Emperor of Japan, heard of Sun Lutang's fame and issued a letter of challenge to him. Sakagaki Kazuo attempted to take advantage of Sun Lutang's old age and weakness, and proposed that they only compete in skill and not skill. He also wanted to use many people to suppress Sun Lutang to win. At that time, Sun Lutang, who was 60 years old and focused on cultivating his Taoist skills and had no interest in actual combat, agreed to the competition in front of the foreign invaders. He proposed a game of sparring, lying flat on the ground, allowing the four Japanese samurai to press down on his limbs, then letting the most burly samurai sit on his body and wrap his legs around his waist and his hands around his head. Then, one person would count down. If he could not get up after counting to three, he would lose. But when he counted to two, Sun Lutang jumped up, and the five Japanese who had restrained him were thrown several feet away and fell to the ground. Then, Sun Lutang helped the Japanese up one by one. Sakagaki Kazuo and the others left after apologizing. A few days later, they paid a lot of money in the name of the emperor to worship Sun Lutang as their teacher, but they were politely declined. It was also recorded that when Sun Lutang was in Beijing in his later years, he was challenged by the Japanese samurai Kazuo Sakagaki. Sakagaki Kazuo was extremely strong, had excellent martial arts skills, and was the champion of the Japanese National Bushido Tournament. He came to challenge Sun Lutang according to the will of the Japanese Emperor Taisho and threatened to break Sun Lutang's arm with his iron arm and iron fist. Sun Lutang agreed to his harsh request and laid flat on the ground. Ban Yuan sat on his lower abdomen and pressed his left arm and chest. Before the referee counted to three, Sun Lutang used his martial arts to shake Ban Yuan a few feet away and jumped up. Ban Yuan shamelessly requested to do it again, but he was also shaken a few feet away. He still did not admit defeat and chased after Sun Lutang out of humiliation and fiercely attacked. Sun Lutang resolved it many times and finally helped him up after hitting him more than ten feet away, but Ban Yuan still refused to admit defeat.

Sun Cunzhou and Sun Lutang
Sun Cunzhou was the second son of Sun Lutang, the founder of Sun Style Taiji Fist. Sun Lutang was more relaxed in educating his children and allowed Sun Cunzhou to develop freely. He did not have any requirements for martial arts at first. Sun Cunzhou started learning from Sun Lutang at the age of 16. After three years of hard work, he had mastered the Xingyi Fist and the Eight Trigrams Fist. Sun Cunzhou's martial arts skills were very strong. He visited martial arts experts in Beijing, Tianjin, and Hebei and rarely lost. After traveling around the world, his martial arts skills became more refined. In 1929, at the National Martial Arts Recital Conference held in Hangzhou, Sun Lutang served as the vice-chairman, and Sun Cunzhou served as the supervisory committee member. When someone challenged Sun Lutang at the meeting, Sun Cunzhou came forward to deal with it. At that time, Sun Cunzhou wanted to participate in the competition to promote the Sun Family Boxing School, but because most of the contestants were Sun Lutang's brothers and disciples, everyone persuaded Sun Cunzhou to give up the competition. The reason was that even if he won the first place, others would think that the contestants gave it to him because he was Sun Lutang's son. He finally gave up the competition.

Who is more powerful, Wang Xiangzhai or Sun Lutang?
Wang Xiangzhai and Sun Lutang were both grandmasters in the martial arts world, so it was difficult to judge who was better. Wang Xiangzhai had been under Guo Yunshen's tutelage since he was a child. He first learned the foundation of pole-standing, then traveled all over the world and learned the wonders of Yiquan. He combined the essence of Confucianism, Buddhism, Taoism and medical culture to create Yiquan (Dacheng Fist). Sun Lutang had many teachers since he was a child. He learned the essence of Xingyi Fist. Later, he learned Ba Gua Zhang and Wu-style Taiji Fist. He combined the essence of many fist techniques and founded Sun's Taiji Fist, forming the neutral martial arts thought of "Fist and Dao". From the perspective of martial arts, Sun Lutang's disciple Hu Fengshan had knocked Wang Xiangzhai down three times, but this was not enough to completely determine the level of martial arts between the two. This was because the evaluation of martial arts involved many factors, such as a person's understanding of martial arts, the field of martial arts they were good at, the specific situation of the competition, and so on. They all had an indelible contribution to the development and inheritance of their respective martial arts.
