Beauty who are you?
Chapter 15: The Legendary Fighting God
"..."
Let’s not discuss whether to apply for a card or not for now.
This sister changes her expression very quickly.
It seemed that Gong Yang Zhen's momentary silence caused some misunderstanding on the other party, making her think that it was her loud voice before that scared the boy, so that he was now somewhat hesitant.
Therefore, she did not continue to promote the various packages in the hall, but just smiled and said: "I am the president of this glorious boxing club, Nana Uehara, you can call me President Uehara, Sister Uehara, Sister Nana, etc., whatever you like.
"This is my sister, Ayaka Uehara. When the venue is busy, I usually ask her to come over to help... But sometimes I just find something for her to do when I see she has nothing to do, like today, haha.
"By the way, what's your name, little brother?"
At this moment Gong Yang Zhen was deep in thought.
Nana Uehara? Ayaka Uehara?
It sounds a bit familiar. Could it be another heroine from some other school?
At the same time, he heard the other party's question and said casually: "Gong Yang Zhen."
"Gong Yang Zhen... Yeah, what an uncommon name."
The surname Gongyang actually originated from the country of Gongyang Zhen's previous life. It is said to have originated from the ancient surname Ji, and was derived from a big man named Gongsun Yangru in the State of Lu.
Of course, Nana Uehara wouldn't know these things.
There are many strange surnames in Japan, and Gong Yangzhen's name is unsurprisingly regarded as an uncommon local name.
It's just a strange name, nothing special. Nana Uehara quickly put all that behind her and continued, "Mr. Gong Yang, are you interested in boxing? Why don't you let me show you around this venue? Although it's not big, it has everything you need."
"Then I'm sorry to trouble you."
"It's okay... Ayaka, if there's anyone who wants to practice human targets but hasn't found a partner, you can help me out. I'll show this... Goram-san around first."
"Eh--"
"What? I don't want to pay you."
"..."
Visible irritability.
At this moment, the girl named "Aiyaka" who had been watching for a long time was scratching her head, with an expression of despair on her face as if she had been caught while slacking off.
I wanted to say that I just came down from the boxing ring and was very tired. Could I take a break for a while?
It's okay for me to follow you two around. At least I can appreciate this boy's beauty for a while. He's a pretty handsome guy.
However, when he saw his sister's flawless smile, he said nothing. He retreated to the counter where the equipment was stored, and sat there waiting for the members' help.
Forget it, just bear with her.
I am not strong yet, but I will get better when I grow stronger.
Anti-bone hyperplasia.
"..."
After staring at her sister for a few seconds, Uehara Nana finally withdrew her gaze and led Gong Yang Zhen into the venue.
"My sister, please forgive me for being rude."
"where."
"Gongyang-kun doesn't look very old. Are you studying? Ayaka is about to enter her second year of high school. She is currently studying at the Imperial Sakura Girls' Academy. You two can have a good chat when you have time."
"Then I have to call her Senior. I just started high school after the holiday... Well, there shouldn't be any age limit for joining the club, right?"
"How could that be! Boxing is a sport suitable for all ages. Children can benefit from boxing to promote their physical growth and development, and the elderly can also maintain their health by doing boxing."
"?"
Keep fit? Are you sure that old people practicing boxing doesn't hasten their death?
Nana Uehara said this without blushing or breathing hard. In a sense, recruiting people to join the club and get membership cards is a bit like engaging in pyramid schemes.
The main thing is a scam.
How could she fool others if she couldn't even fool herself? At this moment, she truly felt from the bottom of her heart that what she said was right.
It would be great if the elderly could practice boxing.
Alzheimer's disease is not as good as my well-trained fighting nerves.
How can osteoporosis compare to my body of steel that has been tempered through thousands of trials?
Birth, old age, sickness and death, watch me beat them severely and make them submit to my iron fist.
All kinds of martial arts, this is just talking nonsense with open eyes.
Of course, there is some truth to this statement. As long as boxing enthusiasts do not go too deep into the competitive field and regularly do special training, their bodies will definitely be healthier than those of ordinary old men and women even when they are old.
At this moment, they walked to a display case, on which were placed many honorary certificates, gold medals and the like. Uehara Nana pointed at those objects that symbolized honor and said, "To be honest, this boxing gym is something I inherited from my father. My father was a professional boxer, and he was quite successful."
...This is more than just a small achievement.
He is enough to be considered a little boxing champion.
"Oh, right. And these... Look! These are the honorary members of our 'Glorious Boxing Gym'. Among them are some boxers who have won major awards in high-level international competitions!"
Looking in the direction of her finger, there were many half-length photos hanging on the wall above the trophy display cabinet. Without exception, they were all boxing champions wearing gold belts.
One photo in particular stood out.
If there is anything eye-catching about this photo, it is that it is framed in a golden frame, which gives it a sense of class.
In addition, the person in the picture is also different. Everyone else is wearing round boxing gloves, but he is the only one holding up two bare fists.
No, it can't be considered bare-knuckle fighting.
After all, his casserole-sized fist was wrapped in a layer of white bandage.
Perhaps attracted by his eyes, Uehara Nana looked at the photo and then realized, "Oh, this is Mr. Gao (that's how he is called in the original manga)."
"...Mr. Gao?"
"Yes, Mr. Gao, Gaolang Wensawade, a super boxer who won the heavyweight 'quadruple crown' honor in just four years. Now everyone seems to recognize him as the second best boxing champion in history, second only to the legendary Golden Emperor 'Carlos Medel' in status and reputation."
At this point, Nana Uehara smiled and said, "Ha, do you think it's strange that he's the only one without gloves? I'll tell you something that many people don't know. He actually switched to boxing from another field. Do you want to guess what style of martial arts he practiced before becoming a professional boxer? Here's a hint. Mr. Gao is from Thailand."
“… Muay Thai.”
"Bingo!"
Nana Uehara blinked and gave Gong Yang Zhen a thumbs up.
Gong Yang Zhen raised his eyebrows and felt a little strange.
It turned out to be the case.
I was wondering why the names "Ayaka Uehara" and "Nana Uehara" gave me an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
I actually watched her movies in my previous life.
"An important character in "Sweat! Fitness Girl", a close friend of the heroine Sakura Hibiki. Her family runs a boxing gym passed down from the previous generation, and she has superb boxing skills that she has practiced since she was a child."
"But what's more important is the person in the photo."
"A popular character from another work with the same world view as "Kengan Ashura" written by the same author as "Sweat! Fitness Girls", Gaolang Wensawad is an expert in both boxing and Muay Thai. He is invincible in Thailand and is known as the legendary 'Thai Fighting God.'"
Looking at the man with braided hair, strong build and handsome face, Gong Yang Zhen faced this photo, as if he was crossing time and space to meet those three white eyes that were calm but fierce.
Before I knew it, my whole body was burning hot.
"I've heard of the so-called 'Kengan Fighting' for a long time, but I thought that battlefields and people of that level were far away from me. I didn't expect it to be right in front of me!"
As an outsider, I may not be able to make an accurate judgment on the level of "Black-backed Jackal" Sanchez, but one thing is beyond doubt.
Even a layman can see this simple fact - the "Thai Fighting God" Gaolang Wensawad, this man, is absolutely an unquestionable strong man!
Chapter 16 Muay Thai + Boxing =?
Because the last time I watched "Let's Sweat! Fitness Girl" was the last time.
So the impression is somewhat vague.
The only thing that impressed Gong Yangzhen was Silverman Gym (also known as Silver Gym), the main stage of the story of "Sweat! Fitness Girl".
After all, there is a muscular Daimyojin enshrined inside, a big shot who can drive away ghosts with the so-called "meat pressure" alone.
But I was really short of money before, and even if I wanted to experience the power and muscle pressure of the Muscle Daming God, I didn't have enough money to apply for a card.
As for the Glory Boxing Club... I can only say that as a venue for a side story, it doesn't play a big role. If Gong Yang Zhen hadn't seen the dream linkage between the "Thai Fighting God" and this boxing gym, he really wouldn't have remembered such a place.
At least before today, Gong Yang Zhen didn't remember the connection between the Glorious Boxing Club and the "Kenwon" world.
Of course, Nana Uehara, who was standing aside, had no idea that a photo had triggered Gong Yangzhen's brainstorm.
But it can be seen that this boy seems to be very interested in Mr. Gao.
After just a little thought, a confident smile appeared on her face. She leaned over and whispered devilishly, "Student Gong Yang is very interested in Mr. Gao? This is really a coincidence. I heard that Mr. Gao will come to Neon to carry out activities recently. If he has free time, I plan to invite him to the boxing gym to provide guidance.
"Mr. Gao has been an honorary member of the 'Glorious Boxing Club' for a long time. When he participated in competitions in Japan in the past, he often used the equipment here to train and maintain his condition. I'm sure he won't refuse such a small thing.
"So what do you think, Gong Yang? Do you want to join the club? If you join now, you may be able to get guidance from this living legend in the future."
"..."
The idea of joining the club is not only there, but it is a big one.
Not to mention that boxing's easy-to-learn nature will allow Gong Yang Zhen to get rid of the level of a novice in fighting skills as soon as possible. As one of the most popular striking techniques in the world, his upper limit is also guaranteed. Mastering this technique will definitely improve his actual combat ability.
Just based on what Nana Uehara said, that Gaolang might come to provide guidance in the future, Gong Yangzhen was completely unable to refuse.
Don't get me wrong, this is not out of fans' pilgrimage to their idols.
Let’s review the fighting career of Gaolang Wensawad here.
He started practicing Muay Thai before the age of five, and has fought all over the Muay Thai world for twenty years without ever losing a single match. He has already reached the pinnacle of Muay Thai.
I felt the shackles of Muay Thai around the age of 24.
When launching an attack, Muay Thai fighters prefer to use elbows and knees rather than fists, which are more lethal.
Compared with his fierce and brutal elbows and knees, his boxing skills seem relatively unremarkable.
Gaolang believes that this is a defect, which is usually hidden in the fierce offensive and not noticed by others, but once it is touched, it will turn the world upside down.
So he decided to make up for this weakness by learning boxing techniques.
Everyone saw the result.
I studied for four years and won four championships.
After more than twenty years of hard work, Gaolang Winsawad's fighting technology system has been perfected and has almost no flaws.
If the realm of striking skills is a mountain range, he has already stood at the highest peak!
“…It’s really fascinating.”
It's not only Gaolang himself, but also the road to heaven that he showed to the world!
“Muay Thai is the art of eight limbs. When mastered, the two fists, two feet, two elbows and two knees are all deadly weapons.”
"With Muay Thai and boxing as the backbone, if there is an opportunity in the future, I will incorporate the strengths of various schools into my body and make the system infinitely perfect, so that every part of my body is a deadly weapon and I will be proficient in striking techniques."
"What a grand road, what a kingly path."
"The most important thing is that I like this, and liking it is more important than anything else."
"I have extraordinary bones, muscle strength beyond my weight class, and all the good qualities that can be used in striking techniques. If possible, I would also like to use this path to form my own system!"
Gong Yangzhen's amber eyes seemed to gleam, and his heart was surging.
It seems like I have finally found the direction to move forward.
This is a long journey that can be taken for a lifetime. Although he has only just begun to think about it, he also hopes that one day in the future he will be able to compete with his predecessors.
But he quickly suppressed those unrealistic fantasies.
Let’s save the dream for night. The most urgent task now is to solve my most basic problem.
