But as soon as he engaged, he knew something was off.
Strength, after all, is the fundamental prerequisite for executing any technique or tactic.
In the midst of haste, his opponent still managed to unleash a formidable core strength, lifting his entire body tight in his grasp and then slamming him straight to the ground.
Guillotine Drop!
The People’s Armed Police soldier used all his strength to twist his body at the last second to avoid a knockout from the move, quickly rolled upon landing, and stood up gasping for air, facing Fang Huai squarely.
"Ugh..."
This exchange of hits drew exclamations of amazement from the soldiers watching below.
He’s really strong!
The referee was a bit stunned himself; he had been closely watching the People’s Armed Police, fearing he might inflict serious damage on Fang Huai, yet when Fang Huai made his move, every strike was lethal.
The People’s Armed Police soldier, feeling the impact of the hit, knew he couldn’t afford to fight on the ground anymore. The opponent’s strength was too exaggerated, it had surpassed mere skill. Clinging on in this struggle, he would soon run out of strength.
Firefighting, their stamina is brutal...
The People’s Armed Police’s eyes gleamed with determination.
Fast attack—
The speed of his feints, reaching four or five times in just a second, and the rapid succession of jabs and hooks were dizzying. With so many moves, even Fang Huai’s reaction speed felt overwhelmed, as if a web novelist was being forced to go to work.
Hands are quick, but the mind can’t keep up.
He hadn’t learned how to block, too close, impossible to dodge.
After a barrage of forced blocks, he took four or five hits before finally swinging a punch which missed. He quickly clung to the People’s Armed Police soldier.
As they separated, Fang Huai felt a sharp pain all over his body and, for the first time, he felt a rush of fury.
"Ha!"
This time, Fang Huai took the initiative to attack.
He threw punches and kicked, unleashing every move he knew on his opponent.
The People’s Armed Police skillfully blocked and evaded, waiting for an opportunity, but Fang Huai’s punches seemed to never lose power like those of an ordinary person, pummeling his blocking arms until they ached without finding a chance to counter.
Finally, an opening presented itself, and the People’s Armed Police threw a swing.
But, Fang Huai didn’t block; he thrust forward directly instead.
Change of technique! fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com
Thump— frёewebnoѵēl.com
A crisp sound.
Fang Huai didn’t fall.
"Whoa..."
The first knockdown! The soldier from the People’s Armed Police was the one on the ground!
Applause filled the air.
The seven Firefighting students were even more vociferous, exclaiming with an army’s might:
"Fang Huai! Keep going! You got this!!"
At that moment, Fang Huai actually turned his head and pointed at them.
"Maintain formation discipline!"
He wasn’t wrong to call them out; their formation discipline was far worse compared to the neat lines of the People’s Armed Police Academy moments ago. One of them, caught up in the excitement, was even clinging to the edge of the platform, looking as if he was about to climb up.
The crowd collectively face-palmed.
Damn, worthy of the August First Medal! Even at this moment, he’s concerned about formation discipline.
Principal Li and Minister Lv finally snapped out of their excitement and immediately shouted:
"Stand properly! What kind of behavior is this, running around?!"
This outburst almost maxed out the anger of the People’s Armed Police on the other side, who quickly got up and charged forward with a flying kick...
...
The match had reached eighteen minutes.
Below, there was silent anticipation.
Neither man’s punches had much strength left; they could hardly feel the pain when hit, and both had to cling together after just a few exchanges, using their bodies to fight for toppling leverage.
The People’s Armed Police soldier, with blurred vision, locked in a rear naked choke in one last effort of hope, which Fang Huai struggled against for 10 seconds without getting up. The referee immediately declared the People’s Armed Police soldier the winner.
But after the announcement, the soldier from the People’s Armed Police collapsed, devoid of all strength, falling straight like a log, while Fang Huai immediately flipped over and stood up, heaving large breaths.
For a moment, no one was certain who had won.
Fang Huai looked at the pale-faced People’s Armed Police soldier on the ground, whose hands were flailing weakly. The referee called to him, patted his face without response, and then promptly moved forward, bending down to touch his hand.
It was ice-cold.
He quickly lifted his legs a bit, then turned and shouted:
"Doctor, exercise-induced syncope!"
Two people below immediately brought up a stretcher, and together with Fang Huai, they lifted the soldier onto it.
The surrounding crowd quickly made way, chaos ensued for a while, and when the People’s Armed Police soldier had been carried out, silence once again descended upon the venue.
Damn, winning till he dropped from exhaustion and had to be carried away on a stretcher, and it was the loser who helped carry him!
Everyone was marveling at how tough he was!
However, the faces of the People’s Liberation Army fighters showed some embarrassment.
The People’s Armed Police hadn’t competed, yet the Firefighting team went up and fought them to a standstill!
When Fang Huai stepped down, finally a tall captain stood out and said to Fang Huai,
"Comrade Fang, you truly live up to your reputation! But now that you’ve competed with the Armed Police Academy, our school’s free-fighting team members would also like to test their skills with you! How about a match tomorrow after you’ve rested a bit?"
Fang Huai scratched his head, "Well... I’m not professional, one match is enough, right?"
The captain immediately replied, "I can see that! But we also have a stamina-type player whose physical ability is not weaker than yours! He just had to participate in two sports events this afternoon, so he didn’t come in the morning!
After you spar with us, I’ll let him coach you on endurance fighting, how’s that?"
With that, he glanced at the People’s Armed Police.
We’re not worse than you; we still have team members who haven’t arrived!
Fang Huai grinned.
If you’re looking for a place to fight, just stick with the Armed Police.
What do you mean his physical ability is not weaker than mine?
Seeing the belligerent looks from those around him, Fang Huai smiled and put his hands behind his back.
The August First Medal is just my honor, but being the national Grand Martial Arts Competition champion, that’s my identity!
"Hehe, combat fighting is just a hobby of mine; we don’t practice it in Firefighting! However, I am somewhat interested in this guy you say has physical abilities not weaker than mine! I’ll see you at the field in a bit!"
...
In the afternoon, the Playground.
The leadership from the three academies were watching the field intently, not just the leaders of the People’s Liberation Army and the People’s Armed Police, even Firefighting’s Principal Li was stunned.
Only Minister Lv, watching a certain figure, exclaimed,
"Number 1, wherever he goes, he’s Number 1..."
Fang Huai, with his short burst physical prowess, streaked across the finish line of the track like a shooting star.
Second place was still at the other end of the playground.
"14 minutes 17! Military Region record! A Military Region record!"
The excited shout of the referee resonated in the ears of half the playground.
But the Military Region he referred to was not the Chengdu Military Region, but the Yunnan Military Region.
Even so, it caused an uproar.
Several leaders from the Army Academy really wanted that referee to shut up.
So what if he broke the record? It’s not our guy who broke it, what are you shouting for?
All eyes on the field were fixed on this direction as a group of free-fighting team members looked incredulously at their teammate who is "not weaker than Fang Huai" 200 meters away.
The team member, who used to be fierce enough to sweep through the whole academy, was now breathlessly panting, and not only failed to catch up with Fang Huai, but his pace was completely disrupted.
"...Damn, is the gap that big?"
"...Way too big, our academy’s current parallel bars record is 77! He just did 119 on the parallel bars! Broke our academy’s record as well!"
"Crap, 119? He did that on purpose, didn’t he?!"
"Definitely on purpose! That’s freaking disgusting! Leaving a 119 in our academy, how are we supposed to hold our heads up after this?"
At this moment, Fang Huai with a smirk on his face, slowly walked toward the school leadership from the finish line.
This academy really is tough, having someone capable of 77 parallel bars; back in the day, that was already the limit for the Guizhou Brigade.
But for the current him, it was still too weak.
With his current strength, letting loose on a standard parallel bars, he could at least hit 130.
As for the double-event exercise of rolling up on the bars that the PLA and People’s Armed Police loved the most, where you can rest on the bars, he could keep rolling from afternoon till dusk.
However, Fang the Roll King decided to value his time, did 119 just the same, and then came down.
"Little Fang! Come here, come here!"
Minister Lv Xianzhi squinted his eyes in mirth, waving his hands incessantly at the impressive young man.
Fang Huai quickly jogged over, standing in front of the leaders and saluted.
"Hello, chief!"
As the People’s Liberation Army was the host, there were now many more leaders present, and although there were no generals, the presence of three major generals testified to this school’s rank as surpassing a major.
"Tsk," one of the major generals exclaimed in admiration as he watched Fang Huai,
"Comrade Xiao Fang, a model for our army! Firefighting really does produce talents!"
"Thank you, chief!" Fang Huai replied, his gaze, however, was fixed intently on the documents in Minister Lv Xianzhi’s hands.
Minister Lv Xianzhi knew this youngster was focused on the System and opened his mouth with a smile, "Little Fang, I’ve shown your stuff to the leaders. Professor Jiang from the Army Academy says the idea is good, but he’s also raised some questions!"
Upon hearing this, Fang Huai instinctively scanned the surrounding leadership.
At this moment, "Professor Jiang" didn’t speak. However, one of the People’s Armed Police major generals with an inexplicable smile said,
"Comrade Xiao Fang, I would like to ask why have you not considered our forces in your System planning?"
