On one side was a tall man with black hair and gold highlights, wearing a white training uniform. His muscles looked quite muscular, and he had scars on his face and chest.
He looked like a veteran of countless battles, and this is how the host introduced him:
"Silver Tiger, a human fighter specializing in unarmed combat, is capable of fighting even against monsters, and once achieved a ten-game winning streak in the Grand Martial Arts Arena!"
"Every time I come here, besides making money, I also intend to try and break the winning streak record! Will he really break the record today?!"
"Oh! A heavyweight like this right off the bat?!" "Lord Silver Tiger—!" "Charge! Crush that brat to dust!"
Such a guy who always wants to push his own limits is naturally popular with the audience, to the point that they all start to criticize his opponents.
After all, this kid looks ordinary and is a complete stranger. He seems like the kind of guy who's just here to give Silver Tiger points!
"On the other side is also a fighter who specializes in unarmed combat. His name is Yang Xiying, and he is a human who has not been in Gensokyo for long."
"According to him, he is a beginner who has been practicing martial arts for less than half a month, so it is quite courageous for him to come to the competition now."
"Let's look forward to his performance!"
"..." "You've only been practicing martial arts for less than half a month and you're already here? Kid, do you think this is an amusement park?!" "Hahaha, the outcome is decided, the outcome is decided, hurry up and move on to the next match!" "What a pity, such a handsome face will be disfigured by Lord Silver Tiger."
When the host introduced Silver Tiger's opponent, the audience fell silent; they already felt that the match was not worth watching.
"..."
But Taiga, sitting in the audience, didn't hesitate to bet his money on Yang Xiying, which prompted Tojo, who was watching from the side, to speak up.
"That's the young man you were talking about? And you think so highly of him?"
"...Just consider it an inspiration from his courage."
"..." Hearing Taiga say that, Tojo was speechless, because this guy had bet a lot of money on Yang Xiying to win.
Even if you're touched, there's no need for this. Is this kid really a master?!
With that in mind, Tojo placed some bets on both sides of the match and then turned his attention to the ring to watch the game.
"You've only been training for half a month and you're already going to compete on stage? Are you serious?" Yin Hu looked at Yang Xiying with a strange expression, even a hint of displeasure.
—Because the person on the other end has the attitude of someone who's just here to have fun.
"Since I really don't have much money left, I have no choice but to go on stage and fight. Anyway, let's start the competition!"
As Yang Xiying said this, he had been practicing too much lately and hadn't even realized that he was almost out of money, so he asked Dahe to show him the world.
“domo, silver tiger = san, martial artist Yang Xiying desu,” Yang Xiying said, and then bowed with her hands clasped together.
"Stop fucking looking down on me—!!!"
Silver Tiger suddenly sprang to his feet, roaring as he swung his fist and charged toward Yang Xiying. A battle was about to break out!

NO.18 Yang, who has made significant progress through cultivation!
boom--! ! !
As soon as Yin Hu reached Yang Xiying, he steadied his stance and threw a straight punch, aiming directly at her cheek.
Yang Xiying could easily dodge such a straightforward attack by turning to the side, but Yin Hu could still throw another punch with his left hand.
Although the guy seemed a bit angry, he was still quite cautious in his attacks, each punch leaving room for maneuver, like a light punch from a fighting game character.
Although the power is small, the attack is fast and has little after-effect, and the jabs, straight punches, hooks and punches can be seamlessly connected.
It was difficult for her opponent to find an opening to counterattack, so Yang Xiying kept dodging or raising her hand to block, without making any attacks.
This surprised the onlookers, who thought Yang Xiying would be taken down by Yin Hu in one combo.
But now this kid is actually able to handle it, although judging from his clumsy dodging and blocking, they feel that Yang Xiying won't last long.
What's going on with this kid? !
However, contrary to what the audience thought, Silver Tiger sensed something was wrong, even though the kid's movements were indeed clumsy.
But he could feel an endless amount of energy consuming him, which made him more skilled at dodging and blocking.
Now the opponent's dodging movements have been greatly reduced, and blocking has become easier and more comfortable. After that, he only blocked to neutralize the attacks.
Silver Tiger knew why; the guy in front of him was like a magnet, taking away some of his strength every time he made contact with his fists and feet.
"What exactly did you do?!... Ugh!" This made Silver Tiger a little anxious, and then Yang Xiying seized the opportunity to expose his weakness.
Yin Hu's lower body was directly hit by Yang Xiying's jabbing foot and low sweeping leg. The intense pain from his leg made his face contort and his center of gravity unstable.
His defenses were so wide open that Yang Xiying's left palm struck him in the chest, causing him even more intense pain!
But this was just the beginning. Yang Xiying's right fist was already poised to strike, and Silver Tiger's face was directly deformed by the blow, his body swaying precariously.
"Lin Chong spurs his horse on—!!!"
At that moment, Yang Xiying added her final move, spinning her body and delivering a whip kick that struck her opponent's head!
boom--! ! !
Finally, using the momentum of the rotation to follow up with a knee strike, Silver Tiger flew backward like a kite with a broken string, to everyone's astonishment!
—Because Silver Tiger, who was still showing his advantage, was suddenly counter-killed!
"You...!" Silver Tiger, lying on the ground, pointed at Yang Xiying in disbelief; he only had this much strength left.
“Mach Fist also has the Mountain-Crushing Force, thank you for your guidance,” Yang Xiying said slowly. “I will break your winning streak record for you.”
"...Gulp!" Silver Tiger completely passed out, foaming at the mouth and unable to get up again, which brought the stunned referee back to his senses and made him speak.
"Silver Tiger is unable to fight. The winner is Yang Xiying!"
After saying that, he sent people to drag Yin Hu away for emergency treatment, while the audience was already in an uproar!
They just don't understand! Why was Silver Tiger, who was pressing the enemy so hard, suddenly killed by them?!
"Why was Lord Silver Tiger suddenly countered?!" "Isn't it obvious? Silver Tiger neglected his lower body!"
"That's the Shadowless Kick! It's a move that uses rapid hand attacks to draw the opponent's attention to their upper body, then suddenly kicks at their lower body!"
"But how could Silver Tiger, a veteran of countless battles, be fooled by that clumsy kid?!" "Clumsy? Didn't you see that guy's movements were getting more and more practiced?"
"Moreover, I noticed that Silver Tiger suddenly seemed to be struggling more and more, which allowed him to find an opening!"
"Then why is Silver Tiger struggling more and more?! Did he not eat enough today?!"
"How could that be?! I saw him having a good meal at Ni Tun Pavilion today. It must be related to the martial arts that kid named Yang Xiying is practicing!"
"That's right, I could feel him circulating a very powerful internal energy during the fight just now! It was like a vortex!"
"So Silver Tiger is struggling so much because of that internal energy technique?! What kind of internal energy technique can absorb other people's energy?!"
“Absorbing the energy of others… I’ve got it! I saw it under the statue of the God of War, it’s the Northern Darkness Divine Art!”
“Eh—???”
Although many people were puzzled, some knowledgeable people still managed to deduce the ins and outs of the matter, and everyone was shocked when they thought of the Northern Darkness Divine Art.
"Hey, Taiga, isn't the Northern Darkness Divine Art even harder to learn than the Righteousness Song Technique?" Tojo, who was already sweating profusely in the audience, said.
He had read about the Northern Darkness Divine Art, but it was even more difficult to learn than the Righteous Qi Song, and there were almost no people in the human world who knew it.
But now there is someone who does, and according to Dahe, that person was a greenhorn just two weeks ago.
So he only spent two weeks learning the Northern Darkness Divine Art?!
“Yes,” Dahe said, sounding completely unfazed. “Besides, the reason that kid Yang Xiying has been coming to see me for two weeks—”
"It's not because learning a certain martial art takes two weeks, but because he's really broke from practicing that he's come to fight in the arena."
"—He has now studied about a quarter of the books under the statue of the God of War."
Tojo: "???"
Yes, Yang Xiying made significant progress in just two weeks. She borrowed books and bought materials on the first day and began her cultivation the next day.
It only took one day to master the Wumu Legacy, and my martial arts attributes such as sword, saber, and staff increased by 30, and my internal strength increased by 60, because my internal strength was increased.
Some martial arts that require sufficient internal strength can also be learned, such as Song Jiang's Anger Against the Bandits, the Water Margin Heroes Palm, and Lu Da's Willow-Piercing Move.
A move that involves grabbing an opponent and slamming their head to the ground from a great height, but this move requires skill in lightness, strength, and physical constitution.
Therefore, on the third day, Yang Xiying focused on practicing the "Marrow Cleansing Classic" and the "Northern Darkness Divine Skill," the former increasing her bone structure by 20 and her internal strength by 30.
The latter increases internal strength by 15 and arrow skills by 20. The Northern Darkness Divine Art also has a move called the Life and Death Talisman, which uses liquids such as wine to reverse the flow of true energy.
The true energy emanating from the palm is several times colder than ice, and the liquid in the hand naturally condenses into ice, which is then injected into the body to subdue the enemy.
In this way, he was getting closer and closer to learning Emperor Penguin No. 1, so Yang Xiying struck while the iron was hot and returned the "Marrow Cleansing Classic" and "Northern Darkness Divine Skill" on the third night to borrow new martial arts.
These are basically all light-body techniques such as "The Great Immortal's Greed for Wealth," "The Fighting Technique," "The White Ape Catching Arrows," "The Fox-Shaped Step," and "The Lightness Technique"...
Because "Lingbo Weibu" requires a certain level of lightness skill, which is represented by system data as ≥70, Yang Xiying is still 40 points short.
The five books he borrowed would allow him to break through the 70 mark or even gain 9 more points, which would enable him to learn the Lingbo Weibu (a martial arts technique).
This not only adds 14 to lightness skill but also 10 to internal skill. At that time, being able to cover 10 meters in one step and leap 10 meters in one bound made you a mini-superman, directly reaching the same level.
This happened five and a half days after Yang Xiying arrived in Gensokyo. By then, he had already become engrossed in studying and continued to borrow books to cultivate.
On the fifth and sixth days, we learned martial arts. We mastered the Water Margin Heroes Palm Double Ninja Fist and the borrowed Iron Sand Palm and Star-Kicking Fist.
Day 7…
Day 8...
By the fourteenth day of training, Yang Xiying realized he was running out of living expenses, but looking at his current stats...
【身体:悟性100/根骨165/力道161/精神???/阴阳0/轻功125/内功256
武学:搏击176/剑法39/刀法40/枪棍50/箭器135/短柄50
技艺:锻造10/制衣5/医术20/毒术15/琴0/棋8/书5/画15/厨艺15/驾驶10/种植5】
I should be able to fight in the ring by now...

NO.19 I've been thinking about you a lot lately!
Just as Yang Xiying had predicted, he was indeed capable of fighting in the ring, or rather, he was practically a pushover here.
I had looked around the players' rooms before the arena competition, and the highest level they reached was only at the same rank, while Yang Xiying is now at the same rank SP.
In addition to the classification of strength levels such as Paper, Fierce, Mad God Theory, etc., each level is further divided into three levels.
For example, the first level of merging is merging, the second level is merging EX, and the third level is merging SP. This kind of division reminded him of EXE and Meteor...
In any case, the probability of him making money here is already very high, and knowing that his opponent is not very strong, he should borrow some more money from others and then bet it on himself.
The fighters who participate in the arena come here to make money mainly by betting on themselves to win, and then receive a bonus based on the odds.
The odds decrease as a player wins more games, so generally the odds are highest for first-time participants.
But he didn't buy much for himself, and if he wanted to give away more the second time than the first time, he would have to spend more money on himself.
Therefore, Yang Xiying bet 90% of her winnings from her first win on the second round, which was a bit risky.
However, he hasn't used his martial arts substitute talent yet. Last time he triggered martial arts substitute, he felt that he was at least at the strong level.
Moreover, the martial arts power he gained came from the legendary goalkeeper and captain, Mamoru Endou, whose most basic move, God Hand, could lift a truck.
Not to mention the powerful special moves that follow, such as Demon Hand, Iron Fist of Justice, Dimensional Demon Hand, Thor's Intercept, God Hand V, and Avatar.
So he can rest assured! After a ten-minute break, Yang Xiying soon faced her second opponent.
