Let’s start with the conclusion: Yang Dai is planning to take a C-rank malfunctioning mech girl and win the national championship.
The bad news is that the team has only thirty thousand left in its account, and a group of debt collectors are camped outside the training hall.
On the first day, Chen Yuxin’s left arm overheats, but Yang Dai tells her to give up her heavy punches and focus on footwork and jabs.
“She can’t even meet the damage benchmarks, and you think fancy footwork will win her matches?” her opponent sneers.
The result: Chen Yuxin danced around her opponent for three rounds, then punched straight through a B-rank mech girl’s jaw armor.
On the second day, a coach from a wealthy team publicly mocks them. Yang Dai fires back on the spot: “The regional championship is just the beginning.”
The result: Team Spark fights its way out of the losers’ bracket, leaving the wealthy team’s reserve squad utterly speechless.
On the third day, an underground fight ring comes to seize Chen Yuxin. Yang Dai steps in front of her. “If you want to touch her, you’ll have to get through my fists first.”
The result: The backer behind it all is taken away by the police, while Team Spark lands a sponsorship worth tens of millions.
Everyone thinks the miracles come from the mech girls’ talent, until Yang Dai opens his playbook: “They’ve never won because of their stats.”
The beginning looks good, and the subject matter is quite niche about boxing. I hope the plot will get better and better in the future.
