Chapter 601, Section 608: The Silent Sea King Appears! The Silent Sea King Departs...

“‘Raiden’... What a terrifying technique.” After hearing Hanon’s explanation, Zong Longshen felt that this theory of muscle-based defense was particularly fantastical, exceeding the limits of human physiology. Hanon had previously said that there were ghosts in the world, but little did she know that in Zong Longshen’s eyes, she was already very close to being a ghost or god.

However, Zong Longshen was quite composed and did not lose his composure. Instead, he thought, "Miss Ye said she had 'some' insights. Could it be just about the 'Thunder Department'?"

"Not only that, not only that." Hanon waved her hand—she really enjoyed moving her hands after they healed: "Besides defense, I also have some ideas for offense, but I haven't been able to test them because of my arm injury."

Zong Longshen was overjoyed: "Great! Then I'll risk my life to accompany you, Miss Ye, and have a few more rounds with you."

However, Kanon hesitated: "This new move is particularly fast, and its destructive power is difficult to control. Maybe we should find a target instead."

"...Alright, please follow me."

Zong Longshen is no longer the naive young man he was ten years ago. A sign of maturity is knowing one's own limitations and not being reckless. If even Huayin is worried that a certain move is too powerful, then it's best for him, with his physique, not to try to withstand it head-on.

The training grounds of Paolin Temple Kung Fu are vast, with an abundance of targets and dummies for practice. Zong Longshen led Huayin on a tour along the way, giving off an air of expert guidance. The training grounds were bustling with activity, and the temple grounds were lush with trees, making it a truly excellent place to visit.

Zonglongshen brought Huayin to a grand arena, which had all kinds of equipment, but only one person was using it.

He was a bald man, not too young, shirtless, driving wooden stakes with practiced ease, and sweat had already pooled into a small puddle beneath him.

"He's a master." Hua Yin made this judgment with just a casual glance.

"Of course he's a master, the number one master of Paolin Temple's boxing style right now." Zong Longshen smiled. "It's rare that King Jihai is using his dojo, yet he has no disciples to learn from him."

This wasn't the first time Hanon had heard of this person. He was the head instructor of Paolin Temple's boxing style and the representative of the sect's emerging lineage, the leader of the so-called "Kongquan Dao" (empty fist way). He possessed exceptional strength, his martial arts theory was on par with Zong Longshen, and he was even more talented and experienced in actual combat. Therefore, he was the number one master of Paolin Temple's boxing style and had gained recognition from the Chinese Martial Arts Province, earning him the nickname "Sea King".

Silent Sea King slapped the dummy a few more times before stopping and exhaling: "Hoo... I'm practicing alone because I'm preparing for battle."

Zong Long asked in surprise, "A battle? Against whom?"

Ji Haiwang turned around, his eyes surprisingly intellectual and gentle, and looked at Huayin: "Of course it's with Ye Haiwang!"

"Me?" Hanon pointed to her own nose.

"It's you."

“But we’ve never met before…” Hana came up with a reason: “Could it be that you’re not satisfied with me becoming the Sea King?”

Ji Haiwang shook his head: "Not at all. Ye Haiwang's performance in the trial was obvious to all. Besides, you are the queen of the Kengan Association and the champion of the Tokyo Dome Underground Fighting Arena... Misaki told me after he returned that your powerful strength is admirable."

Hanon was even more puzzled: "Why is that!"

"I hope Ye Haiwang can join the Paolin Temple Boxing style and teach today's young people together with us!"

"what?"

Ye Haiwang immediately became excited: "Although the Martial Arts Department doesn't promote Ye Haiwang much, your answer to 'Seeking the Way Through Inquiry' has slowly spread. Ye Haiwang also believes that the martial arts that make a country stronger are the strongest martial arts! You are truly my kindred spirit!"

He rushed up and grabbed Huayin's hand: "Ye Haiwang! Join the Paolin Temple Fist! You don't have to become a monk to join the worldly lineage. You can maintain your original life as long as you come once a week, no, once every two weeks to teach the fist techniques. This will allow my 24,000 disciples to benefit greatly! The young people of this era need martial arts to strengthen their bodies and minds. Let's become evangelists of martial arts together!"

"This..." Hanon hesitated, "I must refuse."

There are all sorts of people obsessed with their disciples, and it's not surprising that Ji Haiwang is obsessed with his disciples. However, his behavior was far too enthusiastic. It was like seeing a beautiful woman and fantasizing about the entire process of falling in love, getting married, and having children, even having already thought about what to name the child. This kind of behavior would actually frighten the goddess in his heart. Hanon was taken aback by Ji Haiwang's enthusiasm and was then forced to think a lot. She didn't want to be confined to teaching students in a Japanese sect she wasn't very familiar with.

“I understand.” King Ji Hai was surprisingly easy to talk to, but his attitude was also surprisingly firm: “Those I’ve just asked for favors are often like this, so I started preparing as soon as I heard that King Ye Hai was coming…” He was still holding Hua Yin’s hand, and now he took a step forward: “Let’s have a match, King Ye Hai!”

"Oh?" Hanon became slightly interested: "You mean, if you win, I'll have to join the Paolin Temple Fist?"

"No!" King Jihai said decisively, "I have no doubt about King Yehai's strength, but I'm afraid I'm no match for you. But I still want to fight, because martial artists should let their fists do the talking. I hope to convey my intentions to King Yehai during the battle and let you realize the charm of Paolin Temple Fist."

“King Jihai…” It can be said that apart from his somewhat obsessive obsession with disciples, King Jihai was a gentle and refined uncle in every other aspect. Huayin was not used to his eager request, but she respected this ambitious martial artist: “Then let’s have a match.”

"Sigh, I really can't do anything with you guys..." Zong Longshen tossed his hair, temporarily acting as a referee, and gestured for both sides to take their positions: "Then this sparring match will be conducted according to the rules of interspecies fighting, with no restrictions on style, but no striking vital points. The match ends when one side loses consciousness or surrenders. If the score is tied within five minutes, I, as the referee, will determine the point. How about that?"

"I have no objection." The Silent Sea King's stance was close to that of a natural being, but his slightly outstretched arms made it seem somewhat affected. Or rather, this martial arts master's entire body was full of feints, making it impossible to discern his true intentions.

"I have no objection either." Hanon also struck a pose, much like the Silent Sea King. At first glance, it looked like a natural form, but in reality, her knees were slightly bent, and her legs were standing one in front of the other, forming a small bow stance.

Ji Haiwang observed that one of Hanon's feet was already deeply embedded in the tatami mat: "It's obvious that Ye Haiwang's first move will be a lightning-fast attack. According to Misaki, her speed is comparable to the 'world's strongest creature.' I must be careful."

Kanon is here!

Her opening move was indeed an extremely fast impact. Even without using the Cosmic Illusion stance to build up power, this impact was still very swift—she used the "power dissipation start" technique she had learned during her previous sparring session with Shinbi Bara.

However, it wasn't the kind of speed that Yu Lei Ling possessed, which surpassed the limits of human reaction. As a top-tier martial artist, Ji Hai Wang was able to dodge it if he was prepared.

Having dodged Hanon's attack, Ji Haiwang was about to strike next: "Alright, next... um?"

King Jihai collapsed because Huayin's arm grazed his chin. Before he could even ask a question, Zonglongshen exclaimed in surprise, "You clearly dodged it! How did Miss Ye appear in front of King Jihai in an instant?"

The answer is still to reduce the pressure.

This is one of the applications of Kanon's new technique... Ever since sparring with Shinbi Haku, she realized that she could use force dissipation to accelerate, so Kanon began developing the use of force dissipation techniques beyond punches and kicks. One of them is to launch herself by using one leg to spring forward, while the other leg uses force dissipation to push off the ground mid-air, changing direction in mid-air to achieve a lightning-fast double charge, catching the enemy off guard.

While Zero's speed is extremely fast, he has a fatal flaw: he cannot turn. Kanon was able to defeat him using the "pre-placement" strategy. Kanon's second charge is even more unpredictable and has more applications. Even a top expert like Jikai-oh was instantly killed the first time he saw him.

This move, which Kanon named "Unpredictable Illusion," probably reflects how she became a bit of a chuunibyou (a person with delusions of grandeur) after buying abs patches...

Author's Note: Whew, it's really late today... I'll continue with four updates tomorrow.

The game "Wufang Huanbian" comes from a very, very old game called "Tiandi Jie" (天地劫). I wonder how many people have played it.

Section 609, Chapter 602: The Fitness Girl's Two Nights and Three Days

In August, when the world is in the height of summer, students also welcome their summer vacation.

"Kanon, you haven't been coming to the gym much since you recovered from your injury!" The girls from Royal Sakura Academy bumped into Kanon in the locker room of Mr. Shirogane's gym.

"Well... it's because my body needs rest," Kanon added in her mind. "Actually, it's because I don't want to see the ghost of Toyota Tadakatsu!"

Tadakatsu Toyota's existence is the only supernatural being Kanon has witnessed so far, thus severely influencing Kanon's worldview; he's practically a product of illogical contradictions. At the same time, this demon is incredibly talkative. Having been dormant for hundreds of years, everything in this new world is new to him, and coupled with his affinity for Kanon, he talks on and on, which Kanon finds unbearable.

Hibiki pulled Hana back: "But you've come at the right time! I heard the gym has a new promotion!"

"Huh—a new event?"

There really was a new event. Soon, Kanon and the others saw a vacation poster for "Mr. Shirogane's Gym Gift: Two-Night, Three-Day Trip to Nikuno Island." The cover featured a muscular old man posing to show off his muscles, which was... quite discouraging.

Xiang exclaimed in admiration, "Wow, no wonder it's a top-tier national chain gym. They're really rich; they can afford to organize events like this." She had a soft spot for Coach Jie Xiong, so upon seeing him, she eagerly asked, "Coach Jie Xiong, are you going on this trip too?"

"Yes." Jie Xiong happened to be passing by and replied with a smile, "This event is a nationwide chain, and many people will participate. I signed up too. Look, I'm so excited that I've already packed all my luggage!"

His "luggage" was a bunch of barbells and dumbbells, probably weighing a ton! Hanon's lips twitched as she watched: "Which of Machio and Julius has stronger muscles has always been a mystery, hehehe... Speaking of which, the big Russian guy Kare claimed to be able to compete with Julius, but after the actual fight, it seemed that he was still inferior to Julius in terms of strength. He was beaten badly by Jack, I wonder how he is now."

Well, anyway, Kare and Kanon aren't close, and they even have some disagreements, so Kanon won't keep thinking about him.

……

But what Hanon didn't know was that at that moment in Siberia, a group of soldiers rushed into the cabin and cried out in alarm, "Oh my god! It's Kare! Mr. Kare has fallen!"

“Alas, Russia’s hero, the greatest fighter…” The leader who came in later sighed as he looked at the blood-soaked Kare on the ground: “After all, it wasn’t in the arena. There was nothing he could do about being attacked by that monster.”

"Warden, look over here!" The soldier pointed to the wall: "They wrote on the wall with water: 'I'm going to the East to seek the taste of defeat!'"

In the snow and ice, someone is walking against the wind.

……

What happens in the Siberian icy winds is of course of no concern to temperate high school girls who are happily enjoying their summer vacation.

A few days later, Mr. Shirogane's gym trip to Nikono Island began. If Machio was going, Hibiki naturally responded enthusiastically. Then, Akemi, Ayaka, Gina, and Rimi-sensei... the entire female group of Sakura Sakura came out. The remaining Kanon and Ai Sakaguchi saw that everyone was going, so they also signed up—at least they could have a vacation on a tropical island and avoid the ghost of Tadakatsu Toyota.

Nakino Island is not large in size and is located in the waters off Okinawa. It is already in the tropics, with a hot and humid climate, azure sea, and a large amount of rainforest vegetation. A tourist area has been developed on the island, and the whole island is full of southern charm.

"So beautiful!" "Unexpectedly nice~" "We made the right choice coming here!" The fitness girls exclaimed one after another, even rich girls like Kanon and Akemi were no exception. No one would turn down a beautiful view!

However, one person had a completely different style: Gina. "...It's so hot."

The Siberian cold winds don't reach Japan, but Russian girls can't stand the tropical island temperatures.

"Gina? Are you suffering from summer heat syndrome?"

"She's an ice queen, so she's afraid of the heat..." Gina was already delirious: "Right, can't you just take off your clothes when you're hot?"

"Hey, hey, hey, watch your manners!" Everyone rushed over to stop Gina from removing the last piece of bikini fabric from her body: "This girl's brain is fried!"

Comic book scene cannot be displayed.jpg

"Uh...uh..."

"Hey Gina, you're pressing down on Kanon! Eh? Kanon's nose is bleeding, go get some tissues—"

Ahem, after settling Gina, who was dazed from the heat, and after Hanako, who got a nosebleed from the intense stimulation of stopping Gina from running around naked, everyone still had a great time on Nikono Island.

The five adults enjoyed fine wine and were having a great time; Coach Machio, while having fun, didn't forget to teach muscle training, and performed his amazing skill of flipping a watermelon with his trapezius muscles, making him even more unlike an ordinary human; and the legendary "Mr. Nikunojima" muscle men's contest was canceled due to insufficient participants, leaving Akemi feeling disappointed... until the "Ms. Nikunojima" muscle women's contest was held.

"The prizes are videos of past 'Mr. Muscle' competitions and protein powder, awesome!" Zhu Mei's style is almost like Fist of the North Star: "Looks like it's my turn to shine!"

“But I’m a little worried.” Zhu Mei subconsciously looked at Hanon in the distance. Hanon and Gina were resting under a parasol on the beach. The afternoon sun was beginning to move westward, and the red-gold sunset shone on Hanon, making her look as beautiful and angular as a goddess sculpture from ancient Greece. Zhu Mei’s heart fluttered: “If Hanon were to participate in the competition, I definitely couldn’t beat her in terms of muscle strength… Ah, she moved.”

Seeing the somewhat disappointed look in Zhu Mei's eyes, Hanon stood up.

However, she did not go to the stage or the registration area, nor did she join her fellow fitness enthusiasts. Instead, she quietly went to the beach and gazed into the distance.

Observational skills are crucial for martial artists, and Kanon, being a world-class martial artist, naturally possesses exceptional eyesight. She saw very, very far away, almost to the very edge of the horizon: "Black smoke is rising over there. How could the sea be on fire? Unless..."

Gina, who was cooling off nearby, saw Hanon running by in a hurry and asked curiously, "Hanon, where are you going?"

"There's black smoke in the distance. Maybe the ferry is on fire. I'll go check it out."
