If it weren't for the fact that it actually popularized martial arts techniques and the physical defense of the female characters, Zhixing might not have been included in my list of anime to watch.
Precisely because I've seen it, I know very well that in the fights that Kenichi fought in the original plot, he usually won by relying on Kenichi's ability to withstand blows until his opponent ran out of stamina.
Although the protagonist, who was always criticized, was being beaten, he just kept doing sit-ups and didn't fall down. However, the protagonist only fought back once at the last moment, and his opponent was no longer able to take it.
But if we want to find a more realistic reason, then in this world, the reason for losing is probably due to physical exhaustion.
Ordinary people will be exhausted after fighting for about 1 minute, and even professional boxers' rounds only last 3 minutes.
In the realistic world of "The Strongest Disciple", except for the setting of the qi that appeared in the later period, the other people in this story are just ordinary people, and their physical training is not enough to allow them to fight for days and nights like in other worlds.
Putting aside his talent for taking a beating, although Kenichi relied on his training in "Liangshanpo" to defeat many of his peers who had practiced martial arts since childhood, his martial arts talent was indeed ordinary enough. It was not until the final ending that his martial arts level reached the level of the small boss in the first season.
Although the ending was forced to end, so the subsequent plot was omitted.
"Ah~"
Zhixing sat on a bench in the park, took out his cell phone from his backpack and checked the map again.
After comparing over and over again, Zhixing began to reflect on whether it was his own problem.
"I didn't see it wrong, and I didn't miss it. Why can't I even find the store on the first corner?"
Zhixing looked at the open park, then glanced at the exit he had passed through, and complained:
"Why does this lousy park have four entrances and exits? I had to walk back and forth three times with all my stuff, and all I did was rule out two exits that weren't in the direction of the address."
Zhixing looked at the obvious route to the right on the map, and the way the distance was calculated using running speed and time required, and thought of the heroine Meiyu, who had been in the martial arts world for a long time and had different common sense from ordinary people.
"So, is this map based on the right direction coming out of the park, or did you pass by the park on your way to school and figure out the route backwards, Miu?"
Zhixing looked at the bow-shaped route map. Although he suspected that this was the note left by the heroine to delay the hero's arrival at the dojo, Kenichi did come to Liangshanbo with the help of this map.
Therefore, there is no doubt about the accuracy of the map. The only thing to worry about is, in the real-life world now, is the map still the map in your hand?
"Although the specific topography of the Demon Circle remains unchanged, the actual location is unknown to me."
"So, while the park's name does match, and Kenichi and Miu took a shortcut when they were late for school, this should prove that the current world is actually based on the anime version, which heavily cuts down on the manga's rhythm."
"Then why is the map from the anime useless?"
"Does that mean I have to wait until Miu brings Kenichi to the park tonight to get medicine, and then ask for directions again?"
"Or do I need to enter the witch's barrier, get the map, and then start my journey again?"
Zhixing looked at the two boxes next to the chair and hesitated for a while before deciding to continue moving forward.
"That's all. It's just a few weights. If you really can't hold on any longer, the medical methods my judo master can use shouldn't have any impact."
Zhixing felt that his strength had almost recovered, so he stood up again and prepared to try a new exit.
But soon, Zhixing returned to the chair again, looking towards the last exit with a confused look on his face, and had a bad feeling in his heart.
"No way? Am I really that unlucky that I only picked the right one at the very end out of 4? Or...are there multiple parks in this place?"
Zhi Xing hesitated and looked towards the last exit. Just as he took a step, he heard an uninvited voice:
"Hey, that outsider over there!"
Zhi Xing turned around with some caution and saw that the person who spoke was an old man. He then gave up the idea of entering the witch's barrier and asked:
"What do you want from me?"
The old man looked the paper bank up and down and asked curiously:
"I saw you leave the park and come back several times. Are you lost?"
"Well, I guess so. Old man, have you lived here long? Can I ask for directions?"
"Where are you going?"
Zhi Xing hesitated for a moment, but after thinking about the plot at the beginning of the story, he felt that there shouldn't be any assassins from the dark martial arts world sneaking in here, so he asked without hesitation:
"Old man, do you know how Liang Shanbo got there?"
"Liangshan... Bo? Sorry, there's no one here with the last name Liangshan."
"No, no, no, it's like a gym. A gym that covers a large area. It's not a person's name."
The old man tilted his head in confusion and asked:
"Are there any relatives of yours in that gym? I see you're carrying so many bags and you haven't even called a taxi. What's the purpose of looking for the gym?"
Zhi Xing became more alert after hearing this. He took a look at the old man's physical condition and found that he did not have many obvious muscles. He then patiently explained:
“Someone recommended it to me as the best place to go if I wanted to exercise.”
"Oh? But I've never heard of a gym with that name. It probably doesn't have many apprentices. These days, people will do anything to promote their gym's reputation. Did you get tricked by someone?"
"No, I trusted the other party's recommendation, but I just didn't find the route."
The old man stroked his beard and said:
"Since you don't know the route, could you show me? I don't know the gym you're looking for, but I can still give you directions."
Zhihang already had some suspicions about the possibility that the park had the same name, so it would be great if he could have some guidance from a local.
Zhixing took out his phone from his backpack, and then felt the gazes of the people around him. When he found that no words emerged in his mind, he switched to the screenshot and said to the old man:
"Can you see this scene clearly, old man?"
The old man looked at the picture displayed on Zhihang's phone from a distance, raised his eyebrows, and asked doubtfully:
"Look at the handwriting. Was it a girl who recommended you to go there?"
Zhixing looked at the picture on his phone, was silent for a while, and then asked:
"I think this handwriting should, perhaps, probably, be different from the handwriting of the person you are thinking of?"
The old man shifted his gaze from Zhihang's phone to Zhihang's face and asked curiously:
"You didn't even recognize me just now, how did you discover my identity?"
Zhixing did not answer this question immediately, but asked for confirmation:
"Let me introduce myself. I came here specifically to exercise. You can just call me Naegi Makoto. Are you Ma Jianxing from Liangshanbo, Master Ma?"
The old man shook his head, which made Zhihang's originally confident expression stunned, but the old man quickly corrected it:
"It's not Liang Shanbo, ours is taken from Liangshanpo in the Four Great Classical Novels!"
Chapter 187 I'm used to the witch's protection
"Oh, I didn't notice. Sorry."
Zhixing scratched his head and didn't react much.
Seeing this, Ma Jianxing was a little puzzled and asked:
"You...were you born in this foreign country? You haven't read Water Margin."
"Except for Dream of the Red Chamber, I probably know a little bit of the Four Great Classical Novels. I came here specifically to exercise."
"Hmm~ Exercising? Can't that kind of thing be done anywhere? You came all the way here, probably because you heard about my life at Liangshanpo."
Zhi Xing glanced at the frail old man in front of him, and considering that lying in front of a martial arts master was pointless, he discarded his previous words and spoke bluntly:
"No one else should know about your being here yet. After all, it will be a while before your daughter comes to see you."
"Besides, I didn't come here to look for you. I'm not interested in boxing skills."
Zhixing was very clear about his purpose. It was not that Ma Jianxing was not strong enough or that his skills were poor, but because he had plenty of long-range attack capabilities in other worlds, so he naturally did not need to learn these human skills.
"You're not interested in martial arts, huh? Then why did you come to Liangshanpo?"
"I believe Master Ma should be able to see that my physical fitness is not very good. Although I am not weak and sickly, it is still worse than that of a normal person."
"Besides, I'm not young anymore, and my body structure has already been formed. If I go somewhere else, I either won't be able to teach much, or it would be dangerous."
"So I'm going to Liangshanpo. I believe that with the guidance of the instructors, they can develop an optimal training plan for me."
Ma Jianxing laughed twice, then said:
"You actually want everyone in Liangshanbo to customize a workout plan for you? You have quite an appetite, kid."
Ma Jianxing's eyes seemed to flicker, and he emphasized:
“It will be very expensive~”
Zhi Xing took a deep breath, and once again confirmed that he did not feel any translated words. He looked at the old man who was indeed looking at him, and then he picked up the suitcase beside him and said:
"Although it may seem a little small to you, it's all I can offer."
As he spoke, Zhi Xing opened the box, revealing just a tiny gap.
A hand suddenly pressed on the box, stopping the paper company from moving forward.
"I'm sorry, but if you're here for revenge or murder, you might be in the wrong place. It would be better to leave now and seek help from others before you show your true potential."
As someone who had opened a school in the country with many disciples, Ma Jianxing knew very well the reasons why a person would give up all his wealth.
What's more, when the other party says that he doesn't want to learn martial arts but wants to exercise, it is even more obvious that he is an outsider.
I'm afraid I've already paid a considerable price to get the news about Liangshanpo. If I really have to wait until I put my last capital on the scene and then get rejected, I will be completely desperate.
However, although Zhixing was telling the truth and this was indeed all his property, he planned to live in Liangshanpo with food and accommodation provided, so even if he left one or two pieces, he would not buy anything else.
Not to mention that Zhixing also planned to wait here for the masters to sort out the training plan, and then find a chance to go back, and then go to Conan and use the information about the future boyfriend to get some money from Sonoko.
Therefore, Zhihang looked at Master Ma with a puzzled look, then nodded affirmatively and said:
"Don't worry, I know. I don't want to train to do bad things. I don't have any enemies, and I won't think about revenge or anything like that."
Hearing this calm tone, Ma Jianxing looked at Zhixing doubtfully and asked:
"Is this really all your belongings?"
"Well, after I pay, I won't even have money for food. I don't know anyone here, and no one will let me stay overnight, so I plan to temporarily live in Liangshanpo as a student."
After Zhi Xing finished speaking, he felt as if the box was suddenly lifted up and then quickly dropped, covering the tiny gap that had just been opened.
"Do you understand what will happen if you train in Liangshanpo? Judging from your current performance, you will die~"
Zhihang looked at the red marks on his hands from carrying the suitcase all morning, and took a few deep breaths with some concern before confirming:
"Well, I'm well aware of the intensity of your training. Just thinking about it makes me feel like I can't keep going."
"Oh? Are you still determined to come despite this?"
"That's right. Although I don't believe I can hold on, at least I believe I won't die in your hands. This alone is enough."
Although this world does not have the ability to heal or bring back the dead, all martial artists in this world have the same ability: "measure."
Even for a Muay Thai master who is not aware of the situation, there are other masters who are watching his strength.
"You won't push the intensity of training to a level my body can't handle. Otherwise, I'll have no toys to entertain myself with. So the only thing that can make me retreat is my own willpower, and I want to take this opportunity to hone my willpower."
Ma Jianxing looked up at the sky, pondered for a while, then nodded and said:
"Okay, I'll take you to Liangshanpo to meet the others, but I can't guarantee that they will agree."
After saying that, he turned and walked towards the exit.
Looking at Master Ma's back, Zhihang locked the box nervously, then followed him carrying his two boxes and backpack, with the mentality of about to go to an interview.
"Master Ma, is this the correct direction?"
Zhixing followed Ma Jianxing out of the main gate of the park and watched him walk to the left, wondering.
"Just follow me."
Ma Jianxing raised his hand and waved, indicating that the path he was taking was the correct one.
But after taking a few steps, Ma Jianxing frowned and looked back.
Seeing that Zhixing did not follow him, but stood at the entrance of the park, looking at him motionlessly, he couldn't help but wonder:
"What's wrong? Are you deciding to give up now?"
Zhixing still didn't follow. After seeing Ma Jianxing stop, he looked towards the other end of the street and said:
"Although I identified you as Ma Jianxing, Master Ma. But I have a question, I wonder if Master Ma can tell me."
"what's up?"
"I didn't notice, but you also entered the park from this entrance, right? Why did you come to see me?"
Seeing normal passersby walking on the street in the distance, Zhixing turned around and looked at Ma Jianxing and asked:
