The Bullied One Is Too Good at Fighting - Chapter 12
< Bullying is too good at martial arts (12) >
“Oh, this is great, but this is-!?”
While the hall was filled with cheers, Chairman Jang Young-gil, who took the microphone, did not look good.
Bringing a gatekeeper-level player into the first selection was clearly for the sake of ‘suppression of the baseline’.
Guys who use their fists are probably full of unfounded confidence.
His first goal was to make them feel the power of an MMA professional fighter and forcibly instill humility in them.
No matter how excellent an issue maker is, if it is not controlled in the end, it will only become the second Conor McGregor.
McGregor was arguably the greatest MMA lightweight star of all time, but he grew too big to be out of the group’s control.
Chairman Young-Gil Jang’s goal was not to create a ‘second Conor McGregor’.
To create a player who has a topical star quality comparable to him, but who moves under group control.
That’s why we held ‘Real Fighter’.
However, Cha Moo-gyeol at the first selection site broke Jang Young-gil’s principles from the moment he appeared.
It was a picture President Jang Young-gil never wanted for a professional fighter brought in from the RCF side to be knocked out in a submission due to lack of three effective hits.
Besides, that excellent boxing move is something else.
I got goosebumps even when I saw it on video, but when I saw it in person, I remembered ‘That Guy’ even more.
In particular, the scene of feeding the counter while escaping in a counterclockwise direction is truly the second coming of the past.
In many ways, it was an uncomfortable moment for Chairman Jang Young-gil.
As soon as he woke up from fainting, Chae Won-ki started looking for Chairman Jang Young-gil.
The confident look in his eyes when beating up applicants disappeared, and Chae Won-gi’s eyes looking at Chairman Young-gil Jang were like herbivores.
“President of the meeting…”
Seeing Chae Won-ki like that, Young-gil Jang’s expression was full of displeasure.
‘You look like a worthless bastard
. ‘
“Car flawless-! Car flawless-! Car flawless-!”
The cheers at the venue did not stop, and Jang Young-gil had to improvise.
It can be said that it was eliminated because it was not able to hit three effective hits by sticking to the principle.
However, in MMA, where both striking and grappling situations occur, a submission is far more meaningful than a single effective strike.
Most of all, an amateur participant defeated a professional player by fainting KO.
The tournament was not held to follow the same rules.
He knew that in this situation, if he tried to press flawless in this situation, it would have the opposite effect
.
“great! This is a completely unexpected result.”
Chairman Jang Young-gil, who took the microphone, applauded with a rather calm expression.
“It was like watching an MMA fight that was very well structured, from the boxing evasion technique to the calm guillotine finish. I never imagined that there would be a challenger knocking out our fighter in the first selection. You won’t be able to talk to an applicant who has shown such a wonderful performance.”
Chairman Jang Young-gil passed the microphone to Cha Moo-gyeol through hand gestures.
Cha Moo-gyul and Jang Young-gil, who finally grabbed the microphone, looked at each other.
“…”
There was a tense silence for a while.
To Chairman Young-gil Jang, Moo-gyeol Cha was just a high school student who cared about him, but Mu-gyeol Cha took a different position.
Beyond quadriplegic.
Overcome the crisis of suffocation.
It transcends time and space and stands in front of the enemy again.
It was difficult to hide the boiling hatred.
I want to run right now and pour a barrage of blows into the face of that hateful old woman.
However, Moo-gyeol Cha was well aware that hasty movements can be poisonous.
Calmly and tenaciously, everything Jang Young-gil has built must be destroyed one by one.
They said that in order to catch a tiger, you have to enter the tiger’s den.
“Thank you, Chairman. I worked hard to play for RCF.”
“Especially your boxing moves seem really good. Can I ask which gym you practiced at?”
“I didn’t go to the gym separately.”
“This is amazing. Then, in what way…”
“I did a lot of research after watching the videos of the late Cha Moo-gyeol.”
When ‘the late Cha Moo-gyeol’ was mentioned, Chairman Jang Young-gil’s expression instantly hardened.
However, Chairman Young-gil Jang nodded with a pretentious smile in an instant.
“As expected, it was a movement that I had seen many times. There is a saying that people live by their names, but I guess Cha Moo-gyeol is the name destined to become a warrior.”
“…”
“I also thought of the old days when I saw the boxing style of the applicant’s name. As many of you may already know, the late Cha Moo-gyeol. So Mugyeol is the one I really cherished. He was a man of great talent. I took care of him until he died, but to be honest, I still feel the burden on my heart when I think of him.”
“…”
“If only I had paid a little more attention to making sure he didn’t go down the wrong path… Whoa.”
Before he knew it, Chairman Jang Young-gil was waving his hands and even blushing.
Seeing this, Mugyeol tried to endure the nausea that came up.
Because it was none other than Jang Young-gil who suggested bare-knuckle fighting to him in his previous life.
Besides, he was the one who attached the chemical monster armed with drugs to Moo Gyeol.
The fact that he forcibly lengthened his lifeline with a life support device and sold his emotions.
It was also Jang Young-gil who mocked the flawless appearance and told the junior fighters, ‘If you don’t want to end up like that, listen to me.’
“Now the flawless is gone, but a new flawless car has reappeared.”
“…”
“I wonder if this is also destiny. I will never regret this time. The selection process is not over yet, but if the applicant for Cha Moo-gyeol gets to work with RCF, I would like to help. So that I can become the best fighter who is loved by everyone.”
“Thank you, Chairman.”
“Everyone, please applaud the applicants for Cha Moo Gyeol!”
Thunderous applause poured into the hall, and Cha Moo-gyeol raised his right hand to respond to the cheers.
Seeing that, Kang Hye-min of ‘Brawlers’ felt goose bumps unknowingly.
“After winning, even the appearance is the same as Cha Mu-gyeol.”
“Are they the same?”
“huh. To the extent that I wonder if I analyzed that too.”
“Cha Mu-gyeol was such a great player, senior?”
“no. Strictly speaking, a failed martial artist. But the talent was great. It was two consecutive first-round KO wins without even knowing the grappling G.”
“Huh, is that possible?”
“It is difficult. That’s why everyone said it was the feeling of being a WFC champion. I became a mediocre player because that glass jaw burst.”
“Hmm, then, how about the high school student Moo Gyeol?”
“I don’t know yet, but when I saw him in the clinch fight earlier, he seemed to have some toughness.”
“If you have the boxing skills of a dead car, Jiu-Jitsu skills, and even the toughness… maybe you can become perfect?”
“okay. I also had some expectations, but this completely exceeded my expectations.”
Saying that, Kang Hye-min hurriedly packed her things and got up from her seat.
“uh? Are you a senior? I still have a lot left in the first selection.”
“I don’t even have to watch the rest of the game. Follow me quickly!”
“Are you going to get this interview? I didn’t bring my mic…!”
“I put my cell phone down and use it for something!”
“Ah senior! let’s go together!”
The two reporters quickly clung to Cha Mu-gyeol as he was leaving the venue.
“Hello Cha Moo Gyeol contestants! This is Hyemin Kang from ‘Brawlers’. I was really impressed with today’s contest! May I ask you a few questions?”
“yes?”
“You said you studied the boxing of the late Cha Moo-gyeol. What kind of relationship did you have with the late Cha Moo-gyeol?
“no.”
“The final submission catch was so impressive. I wonder if this move was prepared or improvised!”
“I learned from watching videos. They say the counter guillotine is good when the opponent tackles vaguely.”
“Then you are saying that you learned boxing and jiu-jitsu through videos. Really great?”
“I haven’t played a real match yet, and if Chae Won-ki used kicking and wrestling from the beginning, I would have lost.”
As the interview went on, Kang Hye-min couldn’t help but admire it.
In the first match, he got a submission from a pro.
At this level, he could have been intoxicated with victory, but Mugyeol was thoroughly analyzing his victory factors.
‘Well, if Chae Won-gi, that idiot, had mixed low kicks from the beginning, that picture wouldn’t have come out even if he died.’
The interesting thing was that he wasn’t a character without confidence.
“Looking at Cha Moo-gyeol up close now, he has very distinct features and is handsome. Aren’t you afraid of being punched in the face?”
“If I was scared of that, I wouldn’t have applied for ‘Real Fighter’.”
“okay. Haha I asked a rather stupid question.”
“Besides, you probably won’t get hit very often.”
What is this crazy confidence?
If you don’t have absolute confidence in boxing, you won’t be able to spit out such words easily.
However, that confidence was never seen as bravado or ‘hard work’.
As a veteran martial arts reporter, Kang Hye-min’s intuition gradually grew closer to certainty.
‘I have to make friends with this guy!’
Even if he is a fiercely skilled player on top of the Octagon, his core is a fresh high school student.
Hyemin always wore a large camera with a bare face, but in fact, she was the owner of a look that did not fall out anywhere.
To the extent that the male audience at the RCF convention looked at her face more intently than Round Girl.
Kang Hye-min took a step closer to Mu-gyeol.
“Cha Moo-gyeol applicants, I think we will have a lot to meet in the future.”
“…?”
“If it’s okay, can I buy you a meal? I’m still in high school, so drinking is a bit different.”
“…”
“Don’t be burdened. I just do it because I want to be friends.”
“What are you going to buy?”
Hyemin was taken aback by the unexpected question.
‘What do high school students like? Why is he asking such a thing all of a sudden!’
The answer Hyemin came up with at the end of her embarrassment was the food she ate the most in high school.
“Floating Tteokbokki?”
“sorry. I’m losing weight right now.”
“Oh, that’s right.”
Cha Moo-gyeol bowed his head and walked away with his back to the two reporters.
“Then another food! There are many other things. How about beef, applicant?”
“sorry. See you next time.”
“Hey applicant? Are you an applicant? Are you flawless?”
Hye-min, who had no regrets, was trying to follow Mu-gyeol, but a small girl suddenly jumped out and blocked Hye-min’s path.
“Who is Ajumman?”
“Oh, lady? Who are you?”
“Mu-gyeol is Deok-hun?”
“Deokhu?”
The girl who boldly introduced herself grabbed the right arm of the innocent and walked with a gun.
“Who is that girl? Are you a fan?”
“I don’t know either.”
“Do not lie! I heard you buy me food.”
“…Really. This is the first person I saw today.”
“Listen perfectly. Pork is fine. People’s favor is only pork. But what if you buy beef? You should definitely be suspicious. Do you understand what I mean?”
“okay okay.”
“She is a strange woman. Where can I get the beef…”
Looking at the two high school students walking away, Hyemin Kang smiled dejectedly.
“He’s a friend I’m curious about more and more.”
* * *
A hologram appeared in front of Mugyeol’s eyes after successfully completing the first round of selection, as if promised.
[Complete the fight mission ‘Beat the Pro’.]
[Knockout the 1st selection opponent fighter!]
[Knockout method: Submission]
[Success reward 100 points will be paid.]
This is the moment Mugyeol has been waiting for.
I was able to get 50pts even with a blow KO, but I earned 100pts thanks to the submission.
“What can I do with 100pt?”
[User: Cha Perfection]
[Point: 0pt]
[Wrestling: F]
[Jiu-Jitsu: E]
[Kick: D]
[Boxing: A]
[Signature Move: Cross Counter]
[Mission: -]
Skills from F grade to E grade 20 pts were enough to level up, but 100 pts are needed to raise a skill from E to D.
It would be possible to raise wrestling to the E grade here, but it is also possible to raise the jiu-jitsu to the D grade.
Are you an all-rounder with a small hexagon or a striker with a strong ability to catch submissions?
“Hmm.”
At the end of the thought, Mugyeol moved his finger.
