[Sweet Combat]

[Episode 9]

President, I also have a younger brother. I can understand Ming Tian's feelings.

If I was to stand in his place today, I would also do the same thing.

Thus, if you insist that Ming Tian withdraw from school, I will withdraw, too.

I will withdraw, too.

I'll also withdraw.

What are you guys doing?

You ran to Zhiying to cause a scene and we haven't even decided what to do with you guys yet!

Director, Principal.

We study martial arts and fist fighting,

not just for a strong body and self-defense, but for something even more important: helping others.

If we can't even protect our family, then I believe that this goes against the spirit of Zhengze.

If you expel us because of this, then I have nothing else to say.

What you said does make quite a bit sense.

Student Ming Tian, your three upperclasswomen are all so passionate about helping you.

Don't you have anything to say?

Timing and subtitles brought to you by The Lovely Fighters Team @ Viki

I beg you to give me one more chance. I don't want to leave Zhengze. I want to stay.

Last time, you were still thinking about leaving Zhengze,

why is it that today you don't want to?

All this time, I have always endured and tolerated others.

I thought that, as time passes, they'd let me go.

Obviously, I was wrong.

Giving in to bullying and violence with only make them continue.

This time, it even affected my younger brother and younger sister.

I can't go on like this. I need to use my strength to protect them,

to become an older brother who is worthy and who can make them proud.

This is what I'm thinking. Please agree, President.

Ma Yichen, this whole situation started because of you. You caused the trouble between both schools.

Senior, you can't trust only what Zhengze's students say. They're lying on purpose.

What happened today, everyone saw.

It's not me who challenged him. He came here himself.

You're still making up excuses?

I saw the attitude you had towards Ming Tian with my own eyes.

He's been avoiding you with all his might. Today, he dared to come here alone.

It's obviously because you forced him to.

President, are you Zhiying's student or Zhengze's student?

How come you're speaking up for them?

It's exactly because I'm Zhiying's student and the club's president.

That's why I care more about the school's honor and our club's name.

I definitely won't allow anyone to ruin it.

It's exactly because of honor that even if it's Ma Yichen's fault, he is still our junior disciple.

We should've solved this problem privately, we shouldn't have embarrassed ourselves in front of so many people.

So I really don't know what you're thinking,

even going as far as protecting Zhengze's people.

Xiaofeng, you've fought with Fang Yu before. You should understand this even more than me.

I only did this in order to protect our club members so that they don't lose again.

Our Zhiying has so many club members yet we can't beat Fang Yu and those three, is that so?

That's right.

You look down on your own people so much,

no wonder you asked Cheng Yanan's dad to be your coach.

Oh, so it's for this reason? No wonder why you support Zhengze so much.

You're aiding the outsiders, do you even have the right to be the club leader?

Ma Yichen is right.

To avoid suspicion, you must choose between Cheng Yanan and Zhiying University.

Who I ask to be my coach and being the boxing club's leader are two very different things that aren't related.

I have no guilt. It is not necessary for me to choose.

Luo Guanyan, you really disappoint everyone, do you know?

Hey! Those who support Senior Xiaofeng, follow me!

Senior sisters, Ming Tian. You finally came out!

Sun Hao! Why are you here?

Ming Lang and Ming Zhu are in the hospital! I told you to take care of them, and yet you just left them there? Are you human?

Senior Sis, don't be so impulsive.

The doctor said that Ming Lang can be discharged from the hospital.

I took them to my house and let my mom take care of them, then I came to school to look for you guys.

That's more like it!

Thank you, Sun Hao.

You don't have to be courteous towards me.

What did the president say? Is there any problem?

The president said to use the preliminary round results to let me prove

my determination to stay at Zhengze.

If I can do it, then he will forgive me for my mistake.

Preliminary round results? It's not like the president doesn't know your situation.

What kind of condition is this? It's too insincere.

Sun Hao, do you really think everyone is good-for-nothing like you?

As long as there's Fang Yu and me, there's no mission we can't complete.

There's also me!

Anyway, the three of us have all gambled with our futures.

If it doesn't work, then we have to withdraw from school together.

Ming Tian, do you have the confidence to face it?

President, you agreed to them just like this, how should we explain this to Zhiying?

Explain what? Young people...

we still need to teach them and guide them.

How about this? Later, I'll call Zhiying's president and tell them about the situation.

Thinking about it carefully, this is the first time something like this has happened since we first opened the school.

Senior Sister Fang Yu!

Thank you

for standing up for me earlier in the president's office.

It's no big deal. This is what a Senior Sister should do.

You guys rushed to Zhiying for me, so I'm very grateful.

You even stood up for me while risking a withdrawal.

I'm really... touched.

- I... - Don't misunderstand!

I didn't do this because I like you.

I only did this because you are a valuable asset to Zhengze,

so you can't be expelled.

It's just this meaning, don't think too much.

I never thought of it that way.

Either way, I still need to thank you again.

Don't misunderstand! I didn't do this because I like you.

I never thought of it that way.

Turns out, Ming Tian never thought of it that way. I was the only one who overthought it.

But it's good this way. In the future, I'll just get along with him depending on the situation.

I don't have to overthink it.

Hello? Yanan. What's going on?

Visit Ming Lang?

Oh, okay.

Okay, then we'll meet at the school entrance.

Okay, bye-bye.

Cheng Yanan.

Senior Sister Chunhua, do you need something?

Do you understand your feelings now?

What feelings?

It's okay. These issues, if you don't want to talk about them, I won't force you to.

Anyways, I already know everything.

I can see that, in this lifetime, it will be really hard for him to cut ties with you.

In this lifetime, I can't cut ties with who? What nonsense is she saying?

Senior Sister Chunhua? Senior Sister Chunhua?

What nonsense is this?

Big Sister, drink some water.

Thank you.

Our Queen has changed.

Oh, I was saying that you're not afraid of cockroaches now.

Drink it, drink it.

Bring out your MMA spirit.

It's not hard.

Ming Tian, look, your face is all swollen. Let me help you cook.

No need, Senior Sis Xiaomi.

This time, Ming Lang was very fortunate to have you.

Otherwise, the consequences could've been unimaginable.

That's also true, thank goodness I came at the right time.

Don't worry. I'll come often in the future.

Or... it's also fine if I live here!

What?

This...

This time, it's because of my impulsiveness that you three were harmed.

I'm not really good at saying nice things.

How about I cook a meal for you guys, to show my gratitude?

Okay then! You make it and I'll watch from the side.

- Go ahead. Go ahead. - Okay.

Ming Tian is really a model husband.

Wait, no, he's a model junior brother.

Fang Yu, the enemy's already in the backyard.

If you continue allowing this, don't come find me when you regret it.

I'll just get along with him however we're supposed to get along.

- What? - Nothing.

Watch your hand!

Why is everyone acting so strange today?

Even when I saw Senior Sister Chunhua, she asked me if I had figured out my feelings yet.

Are you okay?

I'm not done talking yet. She even said something about

how she can already see that I won't be able to cut ties with him.

What a bunch of nonsense!

♫ I’m anxious to let you face it alone ♫

♫ I’m never afraid of exhaustion ♫

♫ The uncertainty of every day ♫

Perhaps every realization comes with a price, but as long as I have a clear goal,

all of these sacrifices are worth it.

I understand very well now that, in order to protect my family,

I must become stronger!

I can't let my younger siblings get bullied anymore.

♫ Oh, who cares if it’s cloudy or rainy? ♫

♫ Oh, love can defeat any danger ♫

♫ Fearless tomorrow ♫

♫ I’ll stay with you until the end of the world ♫

New student Ming Tian, you're mine!

Why don't you join our Taekwondo Club?

Interest can be grown.

I'm Chen Yanang, a female sophomore.

Remember it well.

Classmate Ming, could I take you up on your invitation from earlier? Even though I'm not a new student, I will happily accompany you to register.

Even though there is a great difference in skill level between you and Fang Yu,

you have me, Cheng Yanan, to personally train you. I believe—

- Thanks, Senior Sister. - Hey!

♫ Fearless tomorrow ♫

♫ I’ll stay with you until the end of the world ♫

♫ Even if we can’t change the world ♫

♫ Oh, don’t let the world change you ♫

♫ Oh, the most sincere eyes ♫

Who are you? Why are you here?

Who are you?

None of your business.

Have you trained before? If you've trained,

why are you hiding it? Why can't you let things go and fight?

We study martial arts and fist fighting,

not just for a strong body and self-defense, but for something even more important: helping others.

If we can't even protect our family,

then I believe that this goes against the spirit of Zhengze.

For them, I must change myself.

♫ How many tests are there along the way? ♫

♫ Two people leaping over together ♫

♫ You will be my tomorrow ♫

Starting today, training officially starts.

Ming Tian is going to start on his journey to becoming stronger.

♫ Fearlessly flying forward ♫

During this hot and blazing summer, girls from regular universities

wear their prettiest dresses

and go out with their friends happily.

But Zhengze's students, because the preliminary rounds coming soon,

are doing much different things.

In the arena, boxing is the most effective method to use when time is limited.

So, we will use it as our most basic training. Watch closely.

Cheng Yanan, can't you stop showing off every time we practice?

You're not annoyed by it, but I'm sick of it.

I am trying to tell Ming Tian that even though there's less than a month,

he still has to get to at least half of that strength.

Half? Have you gone crazy?

Even if Ming Tian is naturally talented

or some kind of rare martial arts genius,

that's still impossible!

I will try my best.

Senior Sis, can you add me to your training?

I also want to be like Ming Tian and accept your training.

Ming Tian has a grudge he needs to settle.

As for you, I will train you if I have time.

Sun Hao, aren't you always saying that you're the king of street fights and that you fight very well?

That's what I thought before.

But after seeing Senior Sis's strength just now,

I've realized that my level

is like that of kindergartner who wears diapers.

I am glad you know yourself well.

How about this? Go off to the side and do two-hundred pushups first to build your base.

Go.

Why aren't you moving?

Yes!

Why isn't Fang Yu here yet?

Fang Yu has something to do at the company today so she's not coming.

She has no time to come.

In a bit, we have to go to the hotel for inspection and to listen to their reports.

In the afternoon, we have to return to the company to attend a briefing meeting regarding the exhibition's planning.

Wait, that's not right. That stupid Secretary Wang didn't even leave us time to eat.

Don't blame him.

Look, it's even organic.

You should eat some, too.

Eighty-five.

The preliminary rounds regulate that you have to wear ten-ounce gloves.

As for protective gear, you can choose whether you want to wear any or not

because the preliminaries are not as strict as the finals.

Why?

Most contestants won't wear any gear.

Because in the preliminaries, the skill you want is speed. Once you put protective gear on, your body becomes less agile.

Once you're even a little bit slower, it's as if you're automatically out of the competition.

Take this.

This is to protect your teeth.

My teeth?

Okay, we will officially start the training now.

The most basic training is to learn how to take a hit. Also, you can't close your eyes.

Take a hit?

People instinctively close their eyes when in danger,

but if you close your eyes in the arena,

first of all, you won't be able to make the right reaction,

and second, you won't see your opponent's attack clearly.

So, you must learn to keep your eyes open. Ming Tian, take a break.

Song Xiaomi, do a demonstration.

Okay.

You must open your eyes and look closely when your opponent is attacking you like this—

Song Xiaomi, you're doing this for real?

Of course!

Our Ming Tian needs to learn so, of course, we must do this in order for him to understand.

That's right. Ming Tian, did you see that clearly? Look at how important not closing your eyes is.

Even more important, you have to train until you're able to evade sneak attacks from others!

Senior Disciple, long time no see.

Junior Disciple, this Azure Dragon Sending Water move of yours, back in the day, wasn't good enough.

So many years have passed, and I see that you still lack a little something.

Could it be that becoming Zhiying University's president

has caused you to neglect your training?

Senior Disciple, your words miss the mark.

That's because our master was always more partial to you in the past.

Look at that, this Round Pushing Hands move of yours, you just did it so well.

All you have to do is move to the left, move to the right,

just this light movement and you push things away nice and neat, as if nothing happened.

No wonder, with Zhengze under your management, even if your students cause trouble outside,

your reputation still grows every day.

Junior Disciple, Zhengze Academy's students are all sensible and know right from wrong.

Even if they came to your school to cause trouble, it was surely a misunderstanding.

No matter how bad Zhiying University's students are, I believe that

with you, Junior Disciple, there, they can't be that bad.

Isn't that right?

Based on your meaning, it's my students who are in the wrong?

Senior Disciple, you're starting to do taichi.

Haven't we always been doing it?

Open your eyes! Open your eyes! Keep your eyes open!

Open your eyes. Open your eyes.

Defend properly!

Resist your body.

Open your eyes. Defend yourself.

Don't close your eyes. If you can't even do this, don't think about doing anything else.

Cheng Yanan, use less force!

Song Xiaomi, if you can't act like a coach, then go back to your Taekwondo Club!

Again!

Open your eyes!

Oh, Ming Tian...

Junior Disciple, we've fought for so many years. Honestly,

I think it's about time we stop.

Since we've arrived at this moment,

it's about time that these years of resentment between Zhiying and Zhengze

come to an end.

Yes. Yes. After all, kids always will argue and fight.

As adults, we can't take it too seriously.

There are not many MMA schools out there. Combat does not mean opposition.

If we can resolve it, then let's resolve it.

Besides, in the future, these kids

will still be learning from one another, don't you think so?

Senior Disciple, I will do as you've said.

Junior Disciple, you are reasonable. Thank you.

Thank you.

Everyone, welcome our leader.

Manager Chai, in the last report you gave to me, the new initiatives to improve occupancy rates were not attached.

I apologize, I will ask the Planning Department to hurry and submit it.

You're doing pretty well.

I thought the boss was coming, but it's just his two grandchildren.

They're so young that even the manager could be their father.

Lower your voice, don't let the leader hear you.

What you just said, I heard it all.

Are you Miss Luo?

How long have you been in this company?

Five years.

Five years? That's pretty long.

Looking at your age, you must have been studying while interning?

My little brother, Fang Zhou,

has been working hard to become the successor of this company since birth.

When he was in first grade, while other kids

were quarreling to go to the amusement park, he had to come to the company to learn,

starting from serving water and tea.

Thinking about it, he's been working here for ten years already.

In that time period, he has never been lazy.

I think that the effort he's put in

is not less than what anyone else has put in.

And earlier, his conversation with Manager Chai,

even more so, has nothing to do with age, but everything to do with rank and ability.

Sorry, I shouldn't have said these kinds of things.

I do not want to blame you, nor will I punish you.

I just want to clear this misunderstanding.

I hope that you can continue working for the company in the future.

There's no need for a entrance greeting next time. Time is precious.

- All right. - She scared me to death.

I didn't think that Vice General Manager Fang, who looks cold on the outside, would actually be pretty nice.

She wasn't like this before. How did she suddenly change so much?

The conference started eight minutes ago.

Where's the presenter?

My apologies. My apologies. My apologies.

Sorry, sorry.

There was a lot of traffic on the road.

I am sorry for wasting everyone's time, I will start immediately.

My apologies!

It seems like I forgot to bring some of the files I printed.

Where's my printing card?

Do you have a printing card?

- I have one. - Thank you.

You don't have to come back after you've finished printing.

Everyone sitting here right now has more seniority than you in both age and time spent working here,

yet they had to waste precious time waiting for you.

You can't even manage the most basic of preparations.

I think that I no longer look forward to what you have to say in your report.

Get out.

My apologies.

Who's the next presenter? Start now.

Yes.

Open your eyes!

Cheng Yanan! Take it easy!

Open your eyes, Ming Tian!

That's good! We succeeded!

Ming Tian can rest and drink some water now, right?

It's impressive that he lasted 'til the third round on his first time boxing.

It wasn't bad. You were even able to keep a boxer's posture 'til the very end.

For a newbie, it's rare. Go take a break.

Let's go.

Oh, come here, come here

Let's take a break.

Here, have some water, I'll open it for you.

Thank you, Senior Sis.

Drink some water.

You sweat a lot. Here's a towel, wipe it.

Thank you, Senior Sis.

Here, too.

Ming Tian, have you trained before?

I did it for a bit when I was younger,

but I stopped when I got older.

Why?

Senior Sis, I'm done.

- Now, do fifty lifts. - Huh?

What are you blanking out for? Hurry and do it.

Okay.

It's probably because when I was little, I got accustomed to being hit.

Now, the only abilities I have are endurance and dedication.

So, Senior Sister, don't worry so much.

Ming Tian, today's training was pretty tiring. Put your legs up here and I'll massage them for you.

Your knees must really hurt.

Actually, boxing is a lower-body type of sport.

Also, you usually don't use these muscles, so they will definitely hurt a lot after this intensive training.

Stretching and massaging are both very important.

Truthfully, your basics are good. We just need to work on your concentration and technique.

I believe that you'll definitely be fine in the future.

Wait a minute.

I'll do it there.

You want to seize this chance to take advantage of him? No way!

Senior Sis Xiaomi, don't be like this. Don't be like this.

I'm trying to protect you.

Don't let others take advantage of you and then stupidly thank them for it.

Boy-Crazy Mi, you really are too much!

Uncle Zhao, stop again up there. I want to buy some coffee.

Hello.

What would you like?

Two coffees, please.

Okay. Please wait a moment.

Hello. Your coffee.

Thank you.

Please enjoy.

Big Rabbit! Big Rabbit.

Thank you for reserving that ice cream for me last time. I'm treating you to this cup of coffee.

Some things...

can only be told to you.

Maybe it's because

you look like my old stuffed rabbit, Bangni.

Maybe it's also because we don't know each other.

I know that you cannot talk,

but it's okay!

If you can listen to me talk, then that's good.

I have a friend.

He really needs help. I want to help him,

but he never accepts my help

and he's always finding ways to pay me back.

It's probably my fault.

I always say the wrong things in front of him.

It's hard to not make him mad at me.

You guys rushed to Zhiying for me, so I'm very grateful.

You even stood up for me while risking a withdrawal.

I'm really... touched.

Don't misunderstand! I didn't do this because I like you.

Now, I don't know what to do.

Maybe I really do need to find a way for him to help me.

At least this way,

he won't feel like he always owes me something.

What do you think?

Sorry about that.

I've talked to you about this for a long time already.

I'll stop bothering you while you're working.

Remember to drink the coffee.

The person she's talking about...

Could it be...?

[Zhengze Academy]

[Zhengze Taekwondo Club]

Look at my lips.

Senior Sister!

Senior Sis, what are you doing?

Cheng Yanan asked me to train you.

You can't close your eyes.

But right now, aren't your eyes really wide open?

Senior Yanan said it's when a fist comes swinging my way.

It's not this...

Then, let's change to another method to practice.

Change the method?

Every junior sister, listen up.

I've reserved this whole gym for today. Please leave.

Leave!

Faster!

Ming Tian! Let me teach you how to practice with this.

Okay, now stand still.

Take a defensive stance.

Okay, now horse stance. (T/N: a type of martial arts position)

Okay. Now imagine is part as my lips.

- Your lips? - Mhm. Your eyes can't close, okay?

We'll start now.

Ming Tian!

Ming Tian! Are you all right?

Expect to win. Punch. Dodge, dodge.

Punch. Dodge, dodge.

Punch. Dodge, dodge. Punch!

What do you think? It's very easy, right?

Senior Sis! Senior Sis!

Ming Tian, it's so good that you're here.

Senior Sis, you can't trick me like this.

Song Xiaomi!

You fell flat on your face!

You idiotic girl! Really, whenever you get an opportunity, you act boy-crazy.

Cheng Yanan! Why are you ruining my good moments when you have nothing to do?
