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

The twenty-first company was Golden Entertainment. Rino Kurakichi glanced at the big screen and smiled, "Oh my, there are still so many empty seats! Are you all saving them for me? Well then, this humble lady won't be polite~"

Yu Lei Ling's name appeared in position 3, and he will play in the second game.

"Hmph, what's with the arrogance of that bitch?" The leader of the Dongxiang gang was clearly still resentful about losing to Golden Entertainment: "Although there are many empty spots, there are quite a few strong fighters among the remaining combatants. Be careful that a powerful guy doesn't come looking for you and beat your pretty boy to death."

The twenty-second choice was Yoshitake Real Estate. President Yoshitake hesitated for a moment, but ultimately chose number 25, the fourth section.

President Nogi and President Yoshitake had never gotten along, so he was slightly surprised by this choice: "Oh, when did you become so bold? You actually dare to go to the lower half of the bracket."

President Yoshitake snorted coldly, offering no reply, but inwardly he felt a little smug: "That Nogi guy probably doesn't know either, but my Chiba-chan is an incredibly strong monster! Given enough time to observe, he'll sweep aside all the fighters! Although he's in the fourth division, he won't encounter Kiba until his third battle, and before that, Chiba has already observed Kiba's battles twice. As for his appearance in position 25, he'll learn the techniques of the previous 24 fighters, making breaking through the first round a sure thing. I'm truly a genius, hehehe~"

At this point, the second section was already full, the fourth section had the Fang of Destruction, and the first and third sections had become highly sought-after, especially the first section. The third section also had terrifying guys like Julius and Tiger, while the first section still seemed to be within an acceptable range.

The twenty-third company to make a choice was Dawn Village, a large farm located in Kyushu. Ranked 27th among enterprises, its "president" was not an entrepreneur but the village's old chief. They chose position 4, and their opponent was Mirai Zero.

The twenty-fourth company was Nishipinji Police Station. They chose position 6, with Imai Kouuu facing off against Aguya Kiyoaki.

The twenty-fifth company was Yamashita, leaving them with very few options. President Ota, sweating profusely, walked onto the stage and tremblingly chose number 21.

Author's Note: Two updates today, just in time for the group assignment. More updates would have caused a break in the chapters (actually, I just didn't have time to write), lol.

Are you getting a little confused by the club presidents appearing one by one? No worries, after the group assignments are completed tonight, I'll post the battle illustrations from the novel to give everyone a clearer picture. Also, I'll release a free analysis of the original manga group assignments tomorrow or the day after; you can figure them out by referring to that!

Section 120, Chapter 119: Grouping Ends

Positions 21 and 22 have remained vacant, as none of the previous teams have chosen them. After all, the person who comes out of these positions will definitely face either Wakatsuki or Julius in the third round, both of whom are extremely formidable fighters. Furthermore, they may encounter the Wu clan experts hired by Yamashita before that, which will inevitably be a tough battle.

However, considering this, it makes perfect sense for Yamashita to choose position 21. While others are worried about the Wu clan, the Wu clan doesn't need to worry about themselves. After choosing position 21, the Wu clan's first two rounds are likely to be smooth sailing. They only need to worry about the challenge from Tiger or Julius in the third round.

"Tch, this makes it even harder to choose." The club presidents behind them all sighed. There really weren't many vacant spots left. Julius and the Wu clan were both top-tier powerhouses, and the fourth division was about to encounter the Fang of Annihilation soon...

The twenty-sixth person to make a choice was Sendori, whose president, looking constipated, chose... position number 22.

Swallowing hard, President Hashida of Moritoku sighed inwardly: "Mokichi, although the remaining positions are not very good, the Wu clan is still not a good choice... I can only trust you this time. You said that you also have 'bloodline' and are confident that you can compete with the Wu clan."

The twenty-seventh to appear was from the Imperial Sakura Academy. Soryuin Shion walked forward with a cigarette dangling from her lips and a carefree smile: "Actually, at this position, I don't have many choices..." She looked at Mihono: "At the Kengan's banquet, I said I didn't want to encounter your family's fighters, but you've taken control of three companies at once, so it's not easy for me to avoid you."

Royal Sakura Academy has chosen position 2, and Kiryu Setsuna will face off against Flavor Sander—cough cough, Flavor Sander number 3.

Not many people are willing to go into battle in the first match, since it gives all the companies that follow ample time to observe their own fighters. But at this moment, Ziyin really has no other choice.

The twenty-eighth company chosen was the Nogi Group. President Nogi reluctantly chose position 26, his opponent being Yoshitake Real Estate.

"Oh? Our feud will be settled here?" President Yoshitake sneered. "Nogi, my Chiba will teach you a lesson!"

President Nogi looked displeased and walked straight back without replying, which made President Yoshitake stomp his feet in anger: "Pah, arrogant bastard."

Other businessmen, however, understood Nogi's feelings: "It's really unfortunate that Nogi, who initiated the do-or-die match, was drawn so late. Position 26 is his only option. The only remaining options are facing Julius in the first round or Metsudo no Kiba in the second round, both of which are very unfavorable."

That's right. At this point, only position 20 next to Julius and positions 29 and 30 above the Fang of Metsudou remain. All three positions are hellishly difficult. It's simply a matter of choosing between facing the monsters of Toyo Electric Power in the first round (and facing the tiger in the second round) or confronting the king who rules the Kengan Association in the second round.

Therefore, the twenty-ninth and thirtieth companies to choose, Yi Yi Guo Bookstore and Ba Tou Trading, tacitly chose positions 29 and 30 respectively. Their thoughts were probably similar: rather than facing a strong opponent in the first round, they wanted their fighters to have a less intense match first, before facing the previously defeated Mie Tang Zhi Ya in the second round. Even if they ultimately lost, at least they would have won the first round, demonstrating their strength and preparing for the future.

As for the final vacancy, it will naturally be given to the player who performed the worst in the draw, and he will face Julius in the first round.

"Ah, no choice, hahaha." Rito still laughed heartlessly: "Everyone's avoiding this Julius, could he be a strongman? Heh, I don't believe it, just wait and see how I crush him!"

The knowledgeable club presidents all looked at Rito as if he were a fool. They knew that even if he could successfully break through Julius, his next opponent would almost certainly be Takeshi Wakatsuki... He had a record of 306 wins and 2 losses in the Kengan tournament, making him the fighter with the most wins in history.

Thinking of this, the club presidents looked at Rito with even more sympathy. This young man has really had a tough time...

The group results were now fully displayed on the big screen, clear and unambiguous. Everyone stared at the screen, deep in thought, contemplating the future of the competition.

"Oh dear, everyone has worked hard." The Pianyuan Guild Leader said calmly, since his Miedang Fang didn't need to worry about group assignments: "The elimination round groups are now clear, and the tournament will officially begin tomorrow. Please go back and inform the fighters to prepare. That's all for now, dismissed!"

The crowd dispersed, some brimming with confidence, others heavy-hearted—a diverse array of reactions from all walks of life. Of course, Suoh Steel's outstanding performance was the biggest surprise of the group meeting. All the companies noticed Mieyu's impressive three-spot dominance and were shocked by the arrogance of the three "Vlavo Sanders."

"Hmm, I actually overlooked Suho Steel..." In the conference room of Toyo Electric Power, Hayami Katsu was drinking alone, starting to calculate the risks of his "grand plan".

In the guest room of the Takakaze family's house, Kirito and Kuroki were still drinking together, secretly hoping that they could meet Kanon smoothly the next day.

"Children and grandchildren have their own blessings." Kuroki, an old friend of many years, had long seen through your unease: "It would be good if you could match Hanon tomorrow, but even if you can't, children and grandchildren have their own blessings, and you should just let nature take its course."

He smiled helplessly. He had now completely accepted his identity as a doting father and had no intention of resisting: "There's no other way... The other fighters don't know their own strength. If anyone hurts Hanon, I will make them pay the price!"

"What? She got away?" The head of Iwami Heavy Industries, Togo, was quite shocked when she learned from Mutba that he had failed: "She actually managed to escape from you?"

Mutba looked relaxed: "She was indeed a formidable opponent... but her identity is not important. My 'prosthetic eye' is the most important thing. When I fought her, I realized my shortcomings, and 'enhancement' is a must."

As for Miho, who was missed by many, she returned to her room to find Kanon, who was also missed by many, still sitting on the bed playing games.

"You've been playing games the whole time?"

"Hmm..." Hanon remembered how "Welfare Bro" had messed with her, and she only spent half an hour at the beach, not really enjoying a beach vacation. She was still a little angry, but there was no need to mention it to Mieko: "How about the group assignments?"

"Hey, it's all settled, we..." Mihono casually recounted the group assignments, concluding, "Anyway, everything's going according to plan!"

"That's great." Hana pointed to the table. "I brought back some barbecue from the beach, let's eat together~"

"Wow, this is great! I was actually a little hungry." Miho happily pounced on Kanon on the bed: "Love you~"

In short, the good night is too short. As the moon sets and the sun rises, the decisive elimination tournament to determine the new president of the Kengan Association officially begins!

Author's Note: From the very beginning of the book to Kanon's martial arts training, from Tsurumine Academy to the Kengan Tournament, from the preliminaries to the start of the main tournament... Dear readers, I love you all!

Section 121, Chapter 120: Entering the arena, who will take the field?

"Knock knock knock." A few taps on the microphone echoed through the vast arena, then the lights came on, soft music played, and the grand Kengan Deathmatch began.

The dazzling light frames danced wildly for a moment, eventually focusing on a girl with dark skin but beautiful features in the center of the venue.

"Sorry to keep you all waiting..." The girl, the tournament's host, announced the exciting news in a high-profile manner: "From now on, the Kengan Elimination Tournament will officially begin!"

Whoosh—the enthusiasm of the crowd was instantly ignited, and the entire arena erupted in deafening cheers.

"Let's get started!" "We've been waiting so long!" "Teeth! Teeth! Teeth!" "Tiger!"...

"This enthusiasm, this momentum, truly worthy of the Kengan Association!" Yamashita Kazuo was once again shocked by such a grand scene. As an ordinary office worker, he had never been used to such an atmosphere.

In addition to those associated with the Kengan Association, Kazuo even saw leaders from various countries around the world and elites from many other industries. Originally, there were four or five thousand people associated with the Kengan Association. With these people, their guards, relatives and friends, the audience at the scene was close to ten thousand.

The scale of the Kengan Association is truly enormous. After all, the Kengan Chairman is practically equivalent to the emperor who secretly controls Japan, so the match that decides the Kengan Chairman's fate naturally attracts a lot of attention. This tournament almost has the power to determine the direction of the world economy, so it's only natural that all the big shots are paying attention to it.

Besides, the match itself was very entertaining!

"The knockout stage will be held over five days. Today is the first day, and we will complete the first round of sixteen matches..." the female host announced loudly.

"...In short, these are the basic things you need to know. And finally, I, Kaname Kaname, will be hosting and explaining everything. Please take good care of me!"

"Huh? Katagami?" Yamashita Kazuo was shocked again. At this moment, his squinty-eyed "know-it-all" secretary, Kushida, explained, "It seems that Katagami is the daughter of Katagami's mistress. Successful men like Katagami really have a common problem, hehehe. I heard that he also has an even younger son who is the commander of the annihilation force... Well, in any case, Katagami Katagami's affability is among the best in the Kengan Association. She is generous and open-minded, and her abilities should not be underestimated."

As expected, Kagami Shoka's affability was exceptionally high. Many veteran viewers of the Kengan Tournament interacted with her, and even when some of their words were rather vulgar, Shoka simply laughed it off and responded calmly, showing no girlish shyness or airs of a young lady. She was truly poised and generous.

"Your daughter, Sheath Incense, is truly remarkable; she has grown into an outstanding young lady." In the VIP hall of the Pianyuan Association, the old patriarch of the Wu clan was overlooking the arena together with the Pianyuan Association president.

"Besides, the fighters these days are really lucky to be able to fight in such a grand arena. When I was your fighter, I could only struggle to fight in warehouses, factories, and abandoned buildings."

The film source chairman chuckled: "This is how times change... It's really ironic. As the first Fang of the Destroyer, the empire you built for me is now being threatened by you."

Old Master Wu glanced at the film source and said without any mercy, "Don't worry, I won't show any mercy. Out of consideration for our past relationship, I will personally see you off."

"Hey, Grandpa, are you angry? Your expression is so scary." A clear voice rang out, and it was Garuda, a beautiful girl from the Wu clan, who walked over. Today, Garuda was wearing a sailor uniform, probably her school uniform. She looked youthful and lovely, with a unique kind of beauty.

"Grandpa, don't be angry, it'll raise your blood pressure~"

"Oh, oh oh oh..." Grandpa Wu exclaimed excitedly, "Ah, my Garuda, what a gentle child! She truly is my great-granddaughter! Don't worry, Garuda, I'm not angry at all!"

The old man's change of expression left the film source chairman speechless: "He was a bit obsessed with his children when he was young, and now it's gotten to this point... It seems he won't burst a blood vessel from anger, but he'll most likely have a heart attack from being too happy."

"Little Garuda, aren't you going to wander around?" Old Master Wu asked Garuda why he had come, but Garuda blushed and lowered his head to fiddle with the hem of his clothes: "Um... it seems that Flavor is playing in the first match, and I wanted to come and see him."

"Ah..." The old man froze on the spot, tears welling up in his eyes instantly.

Meanwhile, in the backstage corridor of the arena, several presidents of large corporations bumped into each other.

Rino Kurakichi of Golden Entertainment encounters Katsumasa Hayami of Toyo Electric Power. The two are not getting along. Rino, who is usually gentle and friendly to everyone, suddenly puts on the air of a cunning and scheming queen.

"President Hayami hasn't changed at all."

Hayami looked at Rino with disdain: "Ha, Kurakichi... You, a mere prostitute, dare to participate in a deadly elimination tournament? Shouldn't you first consider your own capabilities?"

"...Ha, thanks for the reminder. If only you could maintain this level of assertiveness even in front of the film source chairman." Rino retorted sharply, refusing to back down.

"...Hmph, if you want to escape, now's the time."

"Run away? Isn't that your specialty?"

The tense standoff between the two companies was observed by Nishihama Haruaki and Soryuin Shion, who were standing not far away. Shion sighed, "What an dishonest girl. This isn't like Rino at all..."

Although Shion doesn't get along with Rino very well, she has a certain understanding of Rino's background and personality. The two are both enemies and friends, and in some ways they are actually kindred spirits.

"Hehe, the Imperial Sakura Academy is about to participate in the war. Doesn't Chairman Soryuin need to prepare?" President Nishihisa revealed a handsome smile. This guy is 30 years old this year. Although he is not as good as a fighter, he is still a master of martial arts. He is handsome and rich. In every aspect, he is an amazing winner in life.

"That cheerful bastard." Ziyin had never been good at dealing with Nishipinji, so she could only put on her usual indifferent expression: "Don't worry, my Setsuna is very strong. You should be worried about our first round opponent."

“Flavor Sander… number three, hehe, Suoh Sei-tetsu is quite an unexpected dark horse. Such a mysterious opponent is very difficult to deal with.” Recalling the shock of the group assignment, President Nishihisa couldn’t help but look forward to it: “A fighter cannot register with two companies, so the three Flavors are three different warriors. I wonder who will be the first to go out in the first match.”

After a while, all the audience members were seated, and all the competition staff were in place. Kagami Shoko began to lead the contestants of the first match into the arena.

"It's here, it's about to begin!" Qiaoxiang's ability to warm up the crowd was extraordinary; she shouted loudly, "Fighters, enter the arena!"

"He is the fastest fighter in the history of the Kengan Association, the creator of the record for knocking out opponents in one second! Although he is small in stature, he can charge forward without hesitation and knock down his opponents with absolute speed. His bandages and loose jacket make him even more mysterious! He comes from abroad, and his style, age and true identity are unknown... What kind of skills will this mysterious warrior show in the opening match of the elimination round?"

"Standing 171 cm tall, weighing 65 kg, with a record of 1 win and 0 losses in Kengan matches, and his company has assets of 3.37 billion yen, Suho Seiji is the representative fighter, Flavor Sand!"

Author's Note: The first one to go is myself! Those who guess correctly will receive a prize—a verbal reward: You're awesome!
