“ね.”
Kim Yoo-seong, who received painful criticism, hastily distanced herself from her.
He only swung his fist once, but he knew.
She was more powerful than Captain Boris who fought in Akihabara the other day.
“Aren’t you coming?”
When Li Meiling said that Kim Yu-sung only hesitated and did not rush as confidently as he had just before, after saying that, he took the first step.
“Then I’ll go first.”
thud!!
The sound of heavy footsteps echoed in all directions as she stepped on the floor.
It was Jingak (震脚), the trademark of the octagonal circle.
A technique that puts the weight of the lower body on the upper body using the myth of balgyeong.
Digging deep into Lee Moon-Jeong-Ju, she aimed at Kim Yoo-Sung’s collarbone with her elbow sharp as a spear.
It was possible because she was 180cm tall and was slightly lower than Kim Yoosung, who was 186cm tall.
He reflexively raised his right arm to block her attack, but Li Meiling’s attack had only just begun.
A powerful continuous attack from Chongchu, the basic element of the Eight Eights of Geumgang, to Kangryong and Bokho.
Originally, the general octagon is a kwon method derived from the spear technique, so it is characterized by defeating the enemy with a single powerful shot. Since it is a practical martial art, there was a linkage that assumed a fight at super close range.
However, as if hesitating at first was a lie, Kim Yu-seong easily blocked all of her attacks.
‘You’re strong, too.’
While admiring himself inwardly, without showing any such emotion, he slammed his full-weight palms on the chest with both hands.
phut!!
At that moment, Kim Yoo-seong, who had been good at blocking her attacks so far, suddenly received her bare wall.
She shrugged and tried to pull herself back, but he acted faster.
A heavily twisted waist and a strong right fist.
“Big!”
When the perfectly inserted counter hit her stomach, Li Meiling quickly took a fall while swallowing a gasp in shock beyond her imagination.
Due to her overwhelming muscle mass, she weighed close to 70 kg, and the power to blow her away like a toy was truly befitting the nickname that was given to him, the Geumgang Yacha.
Another name for Geumgang Yacha, the guardian deity of Buddhism, was Geumgang Station.
“Waah…”
And the spectators who were watching the fight between those two couldn’t keep their mouths open.
A battle that happened in an instant.
The flashy fight between the two, which could only be seen in a fighting game, seemed just cool to the judo dreamers of their growing age.
But from the point of view of someone who knew the situation to a certain extent, it was just a little nervous.
It’s a shame because neither of them used the ki, but if they did, the inside of the dojo would have been a mess sooner.
Genjiro Yaguchi, the instructor of the Mujinryu Jujutsu Dojo, realized that he was obsessed with watching the fight between the two that made his hands sweat.
‘Where the hell is this monster? ‘
He looked at his daughter’s classmate, who was fighting in front of him with Li Meiling of China.
Rather, it was less surprising because Li Meiling was certain of his origin.
However, this boy suddenly falls out of nowhere and is fighting on an equal footing with the Chinese sage, Li Meiling, who can be said to be one of the world’s top fighters.
It was truly an overwhelming talent.
To the extent that Ryuji, who is no different than his own disciple, looks faded.
“…Is it like this?”
And he was astonished to see Kim Yoo-sung’s ability to grow in real time right before his eyes.
Until recently, he had been taking an awkward boxing stance, but at some point he had absorbed Li Meiling’s fighting style.
If other people had seen it, they would have thought it was just an imitation, but it was a copy with a high degree of perfection in his own eyes.
His disturbed breathing was also perfectly arranged, and he exhaled and inhaled at the exact same timing as Li Meiling.
After a while, the two of them started to fight again, rushing to each other, wondering how much they had caught their breath.
The bloody sound of the two claws clashing in the air is indeed violent, but in Genjiro’s eyes, it somehow looked like a work of art.

It was as if time was passing slowly.
Showing extreme concentration, they read each other’s breath and entwined their trained fists.
At one point, I was fighting in a trance as if I and she had forgotten everything.
To the extent that I even forgot that the original purpose was to fight.
When each other’s stamina was almost exhausted, Li Meiling, who stepped back and widened the distance, said with calm eyes.
“I will finish this one last time.”
I instinctively realized that she would use great skills.
“Suh…”
Swallowing the breath that was rough from fighting, tightening the muscles of the whole body.
Unlike the other side, I didn’t learn any plausible techniques, so I had no choice but to react on a whim.
Then, her body rushed in.
As if she was writing a chukji method, she narrowed the distance in an instant by stepping on the unique advance angle of the octagonal circle.
I had reflexively raised my arms to block the attack, but with an unusual momentum, I momentarily changed my judgment and threw my body aside.
Woodang Tang!
With that impact, a loud noise resounded inside the dojo.
Immediately after, Li Meiling, who had retrieved the hand that had been thrown into the air, asked me.
“Why didn’t you stop and dodge?”
I answered with a frown on my face.
“Because I thought it was an unstoppable attack.”
The attack that had just happened, no matter how much I thought about it, it was dangerous to take it with my bare body.
And whether this guess was correct, Li Meiling laughed and nodded.
“It was the right decision. The one I used just before was a technique called the Tiger Guan Spear (猛虎貫槍).”
“Magho Gwanchang?”
“If the flesh blocks the flesh, if the bone blocks it, it pierces the bone. This is the Five Ways of Pacheonmu (破天舞).”
She approached me with a bloody sound and held out her hand to me, who was lying on the floor of the dojo.
“I’m going to do this for today. I don’t think I’ll be able to make a proper match.”
“…Today is?”
“I plan to stay in this town for a while. Please join me to improve my skills.”
Li Meiling smiled warmly for the first time as he said that.
***
After the match, Li Meiling bowed his head, thanking Yaguchi’s father for lending the stamp.
It was me who originally asked for it, so I bowed down at the same time, but Yaguchi’s father said that he had seen something good in a long time, and that he would lend the dojo again if necessary.
We came out of the dojo with the children teaching at the dojo and the Yaguchi women seeing them off.
When I came here, the sun was clearly in the sky, but it had turned dark.
I asked her.
“What are you going to do now?”
Then Li Meiling answered with a lively voice.
“For now, I’m planning to stay at a nearby hotel. And thank you for listening to my repression today. It’s stronger than I thought. You.”
Then he said, waving his long black hair.
“However, I’m sorry that I didn’t show my sincerity until the end. I want to fight Kim Yu-seong, who defeated Ivan.”
It was, in a sense, a provocation.

Maybe he didn’t do his best and wanted to stimulate me.
But I pretended not to know and saw her off.
“Probably, that’s not going to happen.”
Because I didn’t have the desire to win in the first place.
***
After the match with Li Meiling, I went to the gym as usual.
No matter how tired I was and I wanted to lie down right away, I couldn’t skip the gym.
Director Nakayama was astonished to see my face covered in bandages, but I acted like I didn’t know.
And what surprised me to see myself like this was the same for Fuuma-senpai and Kazu.
“Kim Yoosung, what the hell happened?”
“Brother?! What the hell happened! Shall we summon the kids?!”
I covered Kazu’s mouth with the palm of my hand, then told Fuuma-senpai that it was nothing.
But Fuuma-senpai didn’t seem to believe it.
It’s probably because I’m not the character I go with wherever I go.
“Be honest. Then I can help.”
“No, it’s not really a big deal.”
So, avoiding Fuuma-senpai’s relentless accusations, and barely filling up the amount of exercise for the day, I simply took a shower and went home with an empty mind.
And I found it.
