Character Quote
Raiden Sendou: "You have the strength of a strong person, but you lack the qualifications to dominate. Come, let me show you what 'Supreme Fist Style' really is."
[Opening · Final Challenge]
Passing the challenge for the deputy minister position means Raiden Hoten is qualified to initiate the deputy minister assessment battle.
The opponent is the current deputy minister and master of practical combat theory in the Fighting Department. He is nicknamed "The Suppression Overlord" and is famous for his tactical control and mental pressure in battle. His name is like an insurmountable wall within the Fighting Department.
[Before the Battle · Cold Declaration]
The two stood on the makeshift boxing ring at Longya Field, with a black line marking the line of life and death in the center. This is the strictest form of confrontation in the Fighting Department. Falling off the platform means defeat, and surrender is invalid. Raiden Sendou simply stood there, as if his presence had made the world heavy.
"Raiden Hoten, I don't care who you have beaten before. You can be violent; you can be rough. But you still don't understand what control truly means."
"The deputy minister is not just someone who can fight. He is someone who can make everyone submit."
Hoten chuckled lightly, tightening his hand wraps. His voice was low and hoarse. "Then I will make you submit to me with my fists."
Chapter One: The Suppressed Blaze
In the first thirty seconds, Blaze was hit by five heavy punches in retaliation. Kanda Rai's fighting style resembles a precise, tactical machine. He does not chase or greedily attack. Every punch he throws is a "structural strike" that forces you to retreat.Blaze tried to counterattack, but Rai predicted and sealed off his moves. "Your offense is like a beast, but my fists are the rules themselves." Rai struck Blaze on the right shoulder with a short, powerful punch, numbing his right arm for three seconds. Immediately thereafter, Rai stepped in with his elbow, forcing Blaze to the edge of the black line. The audience was stunned. "Blaze from 豪战寺 is about to be suppressed!"
[Chapter Two: Awakening in Close Combat]
Blaze gritted his teeth and took a hook punch, landing on one knee. Someone in the audience shouted, "Give up! He's suppressed you for a full two minutes!"
But Blaze slowly stood up, a glint of calmness appearing in his eyes.
He whispered, "So that's it. Your punches aren't strong. They're stable."
"Then I only need to shatter this 'stability'!After saying that, he changed his rhythm, shifting from the initial "explosive assault" to "breaking the rhythm." Using asymmetric punches, irregular footwork, and strange angles, he disrupted Kanda Rai's pace. For the first time, Rai was forced to take half a step back.
[Final Chapter: Clash of Intentions
Rai snorted coldly and unleashed his full power.
"You've disrupted my rhythm. Now, try my true 'Overlord Style.'"
Dominant Punch Flow, Second Form: Overbearing Wave Pressure
Rai charged up and stepped forward with a heavy punch, delivering a "full arena suppression wave punch" that made the air buzz.
Blaze forcefully endured the blow and spat blood.
But he did not retreat.
Instead, he stepped forward with blood on his lips and a grin on his face. "I can't beat you in a face-to-face match," he said, "but I can crush your spirit!" He threw a counter hook punch, hitting Rai on the chin. Then, he shoulder-threw Rai out of the ring. The audience fell silent for three seconds, then erupted into thunderous applause.
[Ending: The Birth of the Vice Minister]
Hao Zhan Si Lie has officially defeated Vice Minister Qian Tang Lei with three consecutive victories in battle and ascended to second position in the Fighting Department!
The training director's representative gave a speech: "From today onwards, Hao Zhan Si Lie will serve as the Vice Minister of the Fighting Department.Lei lay on the ground, looking up at Lie on stage. He softly smiled and said, "So you are not a beast, but a man who breaks the rules."
Lie turned to leave, leaving behind a low murmur: "I don't want to follow the rules. I want others to change the rules for me."
