A muscular girl is presented to the passionate world of crossover anime.

“If you truly understand the Kengan Association, you should know that as the strongest fighter in the Kengan Association, Miss Ye’s level is not something that ordinary foreign kings can contend with…” Fan Haiwang grabbed Hanon’s hand and raised it high towards Elder Yang, the fourteen foreign kings, and the hundreds of monks: “Miss Ye is at the Sea King level! And she is qualified to become a Sea King!”

Author's Note: Hmm, this part has more dialogue, so we'll explain the cause and effect of this Chinese storyline from different perspectives. But Kanon will still be fighting next.

Section 385, Chapter 379: Aquaman? Aquaman? Aquaman?

Neptune?

Aquaman? Aquaman? Aquaman?

It's not the superhero Aquaman, but the most authoritative certification issued by the Wushu Province, the largest organization in the Chinese martial arts world—that title of Aquaman.

Representing the glory of four thousand years of Chinese martial arts, the title is highly respected. Each one is a renowned master, a strongman who only appears once every few years or even decades.

The discussions that had been going on ever since Fan Haiwang appeared suddenly intensified. The monks whispered among themselves, while the foreigners looked at each other in shock. Elder Yang, a high-ranking official of the Martial Arts Province, was utterly astonished... Was Fan Haiwang serious?

If people heard this from others normally, they would either laugh it off or vehemently accuse the other party of exaggerating. How could a delicate young girl, a student who is not even an adult, have the qualifications to become a sea queen? Or even have the strength of a sea queen?

Elder Yang swallowed hard, his voice hoarse, "Fan...Fan Haiwang, I admit that entertaining Miss Ye in this way was too extravagant. Perhaps there's room for discussion; we can hold a meeting to discuss it. But...but..."

Before Elder Yang could finish speaking, Li Yangwang couldn't hold back any longer: "Fan Haiwang!" he shouted, "Do you know what you're saying?"

"Hmm?" Fan Haiwang looked at Li Yangwang, his eyes flashing with a sharp light. Under his intense gaze, Li Yangwang's aura immediately diminished. There was no way around it; in the martial arts province, which emphasized hierarchy, there was ultimately a gap between Yangwang and Haiwang.

"What I mean is, since this Miss Ye comes from a traditional school, it's understandable that she's qualified to run for the title of 'King of the Sea.' But she's a minor girl who practices Japanese martial arts. How can anyone accept that she has the strength of the 'King of the Sea'?"

“Japanese martial arts were also passed down from China, and Miss Ye also has her family’s martial arts…” Fan Haiwang was about to explain when Huayin poked her head out from beside him: “You guys still know I’m a minor? Why weren’t you so aware of that when you were forcing me earlier? Who are you talking about a harmonious society for? Shameless, hehehe~” After saying that, she stuck out her tongue and made a face, which was… quite cute, quite in line with her image as a high school girl.

Interrupted by Hanon and charmed by her expression, Fan Haiwang stopped explaining and instead asked Li Yangwang, "So, are you questioning me?"

Fan Haiwang remained as refined as ever, without shouting, but his expression was serious and his words were filled with unquestionable authority. Li Yangwang hesitated for a long time, unable to answer.

Unexpectedly, Fan Haiwang suddenly laughed and said to himself, "Words are no proof. You probably won't be convinced by what I'm saying. Oh well, since everyone's here today, and Miss Ye is truly exceptional..."

He turned to Huayin and asked in a gentlemanly manner, "Miss Ye, would you be willing to demonstrate your unparalleled martial arts skills?"

Huh? Why did Kanon have to step in at the end?

However, one doesn't hit a smiling face, and Fan Haiwang's inquiry was much more polite than Elder Yang's and Li Yangwang's. Huayin always responded politely to polite people, so she nodded: "Oh, alright then, do you need me to break bricks? I'm not very good at it..."

"Haha, I believe Miss Ye is also skilled at breaking bricks, but we don't need to now." Fan Haiwang smiled at Hua Yin, then turned to Li Yangwang, whose face was now weathered and worn.

"Li Yangwang! Since you've challenged me to a fight, fine, then you shall face Miss Ye! But I have one condition: if you lose, you must hand over your title of Yangwang to Miss Ye. Are you willing?"

These words caused another uproar. Elder Yang from the Martial Arts Department was so shocked that his jaw dropped. He rushed to Fan Haiwang's side to dissuade him, saying, "This is unacceptable! This is unacceptable! The identity of the Foreign King has always been certified by the Martial Arts Department. It requires many procedures and many battles to prove it. Even if you, Fan Haiwang, arrange it this way, it's still..."

With a "thud," Fan Haiwang placed his hands on Elder Yang's shoulders, stopping him from continuing.

The two men locked eyes, and Fan Haiwang patiently said, "Elder Yang, Miss Ye is a top-tier expert and the pride of Chinese martial arts. She is fully qualified to receive the title of 'Yang Wang'! If you ask me, she could even take the title of 'Haiwang'! This is a new era. Let's not stick to the old ways. Cultural relics come first, martial arts have no second place. We must let our fists do the talking and let the truly capable people take the stage!"

"But……"

"No buts!" Fan Haiwang's attitude was straightforward: "If possible, the battle between Miss Ye and Li Yangwang, wagered on the name of Yangwang, will be declared by me in the name and power of Haiwang. If there are any problems, let others come to me! I even hope to hold Miss Ye's Haiwang assessment as soon as possible! Elder Yang, think about it, if a third Haiwang appears in Guangdong Province under your leadership..."

"That...that's truly an incredibly brilliant achievement...no, what a spectacle!" Elder Yang was convinced by King Fan Hai. In fact, he was practically drooling—damn it, why didn't he think of that before? If Ye Huayin became the third King of the Sea in Guangdong Province, the achievements he, as the martial arts province elder in charge of southern affairs, would likely be unprecedented! He might even be able to overpower the other two elders and become the ruler of the martial arts province!

Moreover, with Van Haiwang as a figurehead, even if problems arise, there's no fear of the sky falling. And if the other two elders have any objections, they can simply push Van Haiwang forward to take the blame. This plan is truly advantageous no matter how you play it.

"Hahaha..." Elder Yang, having figured things out, waved his hand and said, "Since King Fan Hai is willing to take responsibility for the consequences, I, as the supervisor, certainly cannot ignore it! I've decided that I will oversee the paperwork, and the transfer of the title of 'King of the Sea' and the holding of the 'King of the Sea' evaluation will be no problem. We will get it done as soon as possible! Now, Miss Ye and King Li Yang, please begin!"

The fat old man's face was disgusting... Hua Yin felt a chill run down her spine, and Fan Haiwang was not comfortable either. The two looked at each other and both saw a hint of helplessness.

However, Elder Yang had long been blinded by greed and was completely oblivious to the contempt of others. The way he looked at Hua Yin and Fan Haiwang was now incredibly gentle, as if he were looking at a white jade pillar and a jade Guanyin statue, supporting a glorious future for him.

Elder Yang even thought, "These two young people, the man is handsome, the woman is beautiful, and both are martial arts masters. Wouldn't it be a great favor to bring them together? Hehehe, I think Fan Haiwang is so eager to stand up for Ye Huayin, he probably has his eye on this little beauty too. Tsk tsk tsk, she's still a minor, Fan Haiwang is probably not a good person either~"

Elder Yang thought to himself, "I was indeed misled before, thinking that Ye Huayin came to challenge the school and cause trouble. Who spread that rumor? Fan Haiwang is right, it became known to everyone in the martial arts province in just two or three days. The person behind it must be someone with real power inside... Could it be that the other two old guys are trying to trip me up? In any case, I have to investigate this matter thoroughly after it is over."

Author's Note: I feel like I'm in pretty good shape for these few chapters... Next chapter will be at 9 PM!

Chapter 380, Section 386: Ye Yangwang?!

While Elder Yang was adding his own drama to the story, Fan Haiwang was already arranging for Huayin's title of "Foreign King".

"Miss Ye, please rest assured. Both the Foreign King and the Sea King are honorific titles. Although they are nominally under the jurisdiction of the Martial Arts Province, they are actually quite free. The Foreign King can obey orders but not summons. I see that several of the Foreign Kings from Guangdong Province are not here today. The Sea King is even more unrestrained and can even use the power of the Martial Arts Province to do things for himself."

"Hmm, it seems like there are quite a few advantages... but I'm living in Japan now, so I'm afraid I won't need them much." Hanon blinked: "Isn't there a Sea Emperor above the Sea King?"

Upon hearing the title "Sea King," Van Nasson's expression immediately changed, and his emotions became complicated.

"The Sea Emperor... he is the god of Chinese martial arts, a miracle, the pinnacle that everyone dreams of." Fan Haiwang's eyes were full of longing. "But the Sea Emperor is only chosen once every hundred years. He is determined by the strongest among all the Sea Emperors at that time after they have fought. The previous Sea Emperor, Guo, is now 145 years old and is still alive. He can be said to be a treasure and a living fossil of the Chinese martial arts world. His words are absolute will in the Martial Arts Province and are orders that must be obeyed no matter what."

"Wow, 145 years old!" Hua Yin exclaimed in amazement. "Doesn't that break the world record for longevity? I really should ask Guo Haihuang what kind of kung fu he practices."

"Hehe, maybe there will be an opportunity." Fan Haiwang smiled gently: "New Year's Day is coming soon, and the next year will be the beginning of a new century. Around this time next year, we will hold a grand tournament, where all the Sea Kings will have to compete for the title of Sea Emperor. If Guo Haihuang is still alive and you successfully obtain the title of Sea King, you might be able to meet or even fight each other."

"That sounds like a great idea, I'm motivated now." Hanon scratched her cheek. "Well... let's start with Yo-Oh."

Through this brief interaction, Hana felt that Fan Haiwang was a really good person—gentle, polite, and willing to stand up for her. If all the people in the martial arts province of the motherland were like this, Hana felt that even being an office clerk would be wonderful. However, of course, reality was not like that. After letting Fan Haiwang pass, she faced Li Yangwang again, and that hostility came rushing back.

Li Yangwang is about to explode with rage! That bastard Elder Yang sold him out with just a few words! That bastard Fan Haiwang completely ignored his opinions and used the title of Yangwang as a wager! That bastard Ye Huayin actually thought she could beat him and dared to jump out and challenge him!

But despite his extreme anger, Li Yangwang's expression remained expressionless, only radiating a chill from the depths of his bones—just like during the Kengan Deathmatch, when Ghost King Mountain Lord was constantly provoked by Guan Linchun, he eventually calmed down because he had already decided to kill his opponent without any further words.

"Ah, I forgot to ask." Fan Haiwang then realized that he hadn't asked Li Yangwang's opinion: "With your Yangwang title as the stake, do you dare to accept the challenge?" His tone was insincere, and it was clear that Li Yangwang was determined to hand over the title no matter what. He, who had just been forcing Huayin to fight, had now become the one being forced by the powerful.

“I have no objection, as long as she can beat me.” Facing Hua Yin, Li Yangwang struck a pose: “I’ll come and see what ‘King Ye’s’ skills are like.”

"Right now I'm just a Yang Wang (King of the Sea), but I'm not far from being rated as a Hai Wang (King of the Sea). I'll deal with this bitch first, and once I become Hai Wang, my first target will be you, Fan Hai Wang!" Li Yang Wang thought to himself.

In fact, in Li Yangwang's eyes, or rather in the eyes of most members of the martial arts province, no one thought that an underage female student could be that strong in kung fu. Even if she was exceptionally talented and had practiced martial arts since childhood, and could transcend the limitations of gender, she would at most be a high school level fighting champion in Japan. Could she possibly defeat a top-tier Yangwang? It was only after Fan Haiwang held up Hanon's hand and announced that she had the strength of a Haiwang that they began to take her somewhat seriously, but they still did not reach the point of being fully on guard.

On the contrary, Kanon re-adopted her stance, still using the same "Front Feather" as before—after all, this was Kanon's first time fighting against a martial artist from the Martial Arts Ministry system. Although she felt confident of winning, it was always good to be cautious.

"Take this!" With Li Yangwang's shout, the duel that had been interrupted by Fan Haiwang resumed.

Li Family Fist belongs to Southern Fist, characterized by its hard-hitting, powerful, and expansive style. Li Yangwang's physique is among the best in Guangdong Province, standing at nearly 1.9 meters tall and weighing about 100 kilograms. Coupled with years of training and honing his skills, his attack power is truly remarkable. If a vital point is hit, even a super-sized man like Kono Haruo might not be able to withstand it!

However, Kono Haruo was not considered a top-tier player among the main contestants of the final match, while Kanon was a true powerhouse who fought her way to the end. Although Li Yangwang's punches were strong, they couldn't even touch Kanon, let alone break through her defenses!

After a dozen or so punches and kicks failed to land, Li Yangwang grew increasingly impatient. However, being a skilled fighter, he increased his attack speed without revealing many weaknesses. His moves were precise and skillful, his attacks brilliant, and his defenses solid. But, no matter how beautiful his punches were, Huayin on the other side could easily dodge them without even raising her hand. Her face showed no seriousness whatsoever; she was even yawning. Anyone with eyes could see the difference in their abilities.

That's an insurmountable chasm!

"This...this is amazing..." Elder Yang was stunned. Li Yangwang was one of his trusted lieutenants, and he had relied on him to handle many matters in the past, so he was fully aware of Li Yangwang's abilities. He never expected this...

"I never expected that Li Yangwang would turn into a martial arts novice when facing Miss Ye."

“You’re wrong.” Fan Haiwang actually had the mind to correct Elder Yang: “This isn’t the distance between a master and a beginner, it’s practically the distance between a martial arts grandmaster and a baby!”

The young Sea King watched as Hanon easily dodged Lee Yang-oh's attacks, his eyes gleaming with admiration: "Although I've heard she's the Kengan Association champion, seeing is believing. She's actually this strong. This is going to be very interesting..."

As for the other spectators, the foreign kings were horrified, and the monks whispered among themselves. Besides their shock, they also felt a complex mix of fear, regret, and disappointment, resulting in complicated expressions that prevented them from cheering. The only one genuinely happy for Hanon was the old butler, Ito.

No, actually the old butler was also extremely surprised: "I had only seen Miss Hanon practice before. I didn't go with her during the final match. I only knew that she defeated many strong opponents and won the championship, including Mr. Kuroki! Come to think of it, this is the first time I have witnessed the young lady officially fight someone... I never expected, I really never expected, that the young lady would be this strong!"

Faced with the dashing and effortlessly charming Hanane, the old butler began to wonder whether he was the one taking care of the young lady or the young lady was the one indulging him. His worldview was starting to crumble...

Although she has only participated in the Kengan tournament in the underground world and is not well-known in the martial arts world of the surface world, her strength does not lie. Kanon is super strong!

After dodging for a while, Hana was so bored she was about to yawn. This Li Yangwang was not weak; at least his fighting skills were far superior to her previous opponent, Chai Qianchun. If Chai Qianchun's skills were a level one, then Li Yangwang's were at least a level five or six.

Unfortunately, Kanon's actual skill level is 100, but that's because her presentation score is only 100...

Well, if Li Yangwang doesn't have any trump cards, it's time to end the battle. Besides, we've dragged this out for a while, and Hana doesn't think it'll be as embarrassing as a quick kill.

"Although Chai Qianchun's technique is terrible, his perseverance is amazing. Let me see your level, Li Yangwang."

Without Li Yangwang noticing, Huayin gracefully bumped into his arms, raised one hand, made a fist with four fingers, and gently lifted Li Yangwang's chin like a lover, but only gave him a thumbs up, as if she were giving him a thumbs up...

That's definitely not a thumbs up! A fraction of a second later, Hana's thumb, with explosive force, shot forward at lightning speed and struck Li Yangwang's Chengjiang acupoint—there's nothing special about this location, but behind the skin is muscle, and behind the muscle is bone, the skull.

The human skull is a whole structure. Under the principle of leverage, the vibration from the impact will rise all the way up, from the chin to the forehead, which will cause the brain to shake. If the shaking is too violent, it will lead to unconsciousness.

Even with the added power of the explosive core, Hanon's thumb wasn't particularly strong. However, combined with its extremely high speed, the momentum it generated in an instant was not to be underestimated. It struck Li Yangwang's already vulnerable chin, causing him to lose consciousness immediately.

Hanon's movements resembled pulling a trigger, and after she "fired the bullet," Li Yangwang collapsed softly to the ground.

Author's Note: Let's give a round of applause to welcome the birth of King Ye Yang!

Section 387, Chapter 381: Four Thousand Years of Dregs and Four Thousand Years of Essence

"That's...that's it?" Seeing Li Yangwang fall to the ground, all the onlookers were shocked, even Fan Haiwang was no exception.

For three hundred years, the Southern Fist lineage has always revered the five families of Hong, Liu, Cai, Li, and Mo. Li Yangwang comes from the Li family of boxing, which is a prestigious and orthodox lineage. He himself is willing to work hard and has practiced for many years. His skills are indeed not weak. He has a good reputation in the provincial martial arts system and is one of the top Yangwang in Guangdong Province. Unexpectedly, such a strong person was easily defeated by a little girl who is not yet an adult.

Hanon's performance was far too effortless. The entire battle lasted for nearly a minute, but her only physical contact with Li Yangwang was the final "trigger pull," which was very slight. For the rest of the time, she was casually dodging, her movements graceful and ethereal. Anyone with eyes could see that the difference between the two was enormous.

After a moment of shock, Fan Haiwang, being the strongest and most knowledgeable, was the first to recover and laughed loudly: "Aha! I knew Miss Ye was a true powerhouse, worthy of being the overlord of the Kengan Association! The title of Yangwang is yours, Ye Yangwang!"

"Ye...Yang Wang? Ye Yang Wang!" The monks, being rather simple-minded, realized after being reminded by Fan Haiwang that the pre-battle agreement had taken effect. Now that Huayin had taken away Li Yang Wang's title and become the new Yang Wang, they shouted in unison, "Ye Yang Wang! Ye Yang Wang! Ye Yang Wang!"

Butler Ito was also applauding his young mistress enthusiastically: "It's so gorgeous, so beautiful! Miss Kanon... Bravo!"

"Oh, I'm so embarrassed." Hua Yin stuck out her little tongue, scratched her cheek, and a blush rose on her pretty face. "Ye Yangwang, that sounds weird. And..." She waved her hand and called over two monks. "Please take care of Li Yangwang."

"Don't worry, Chinese martial arts have a history of four thousand years. We are familiar with all kinds of combat scenarios and have our own way of handling them." Fan Haiwang walked over at this time: "Ye Yangwang... Hmm, that is indeed a bit strange. I'll still call you Miss Ye. Your strength is indeed as powerful as rumored. Yangwang is by no means your end. Maybe in a few days you will become Ye Haiwang. Then I can change my address."

This Van Hen, he's good-looking and has a nice way of speaking. Who would have thought that a martial arts master would also be a social butterfly...

Elder Yang also joined in. After witnessing Hua Yin's strength, and with Fan Haiwang reminding him of the "one province, three sea kings" selling point, in just a few minutes, this fat old man transformed from a villain who was setting traps for Hua Yin into a sycophantic buffoon. As he ran over, he kept shouting, "Yes, yes, Miss Ye is so amazing, Ye Haiwang is the title that truly suits her! I have the authority to issue the certificate of the Sea King. I'll have my secretary go through the procedures right away, and the Sea King evaluation meeting will be pushed forward as soon as possible. One month... no, half a month! As long as it's half a month, the evaluation meeting will definitely be held smoothly!"

Compared to the rude and impetuous Li Yangwang, the opportunistic Elder Yang was undoubtedly more disliked. Hua Yinxin despised his character and didn't want to talk to him anymore. Fan Haiwang, who was understanding, took over the conversation: "Then I'll leave it to Elder Yang. Holding the Sea King evaluation meeting in just half a month is truly amazing! How long did it take me to advance from the top of Yangwang to Sea King? It seemed like more than half a year, and it was already being processed quickly under the guise of a young talent."

It sounds like Fan Haiwang has been a sea king for several years now, which is probably why he is so familiar with social interactions. He and Elder Yang exchanged pleasantries for a long time until they were interrupted by the sound coming from Huayin's stomach.

"Goo-"

Cough cough, Hana woke up early this morning to catch a flight, and as soon as she got off the plane, she was picked up and brought to the mountain for some bickering and fighting. She's been through so much this morning that she hasn't had two meals yet, so of course she's hungry!

"Uh... I forgot about that." Elder Yang chuckled awkwardly and quickly pulled the embarrassed Hua Yin back. "Miss Ye is in such a hurry to have a martial arts competition as soon as she arrives. We haven't had the welcome banquet we agreed on yet. My apologies, my apologies, hahaha. Fan Haiwang, please join us too, as well as that old gentleman from Japan, and all the foreign kings. Li... let's skip Li, he's no longer a foreign king."

So the group quickly moved into the restaurant to eat and drink, and sat at a large table. As a guest from afar, Hanon was arranged to sit in the host's seat. Hanon then pushed the old butler Ito, who declined. Elder Yang and Van Haiwang exchanged pleasantries. In the end, Van Haiwang sat in the middle, with Hanon and Elder Yang sitting next to him, and Ito and the foreign kings arranged in order—hey, this frustrating drinking culture.
