Chapter 1 : Unexpected and Cringy Transmigration
JAB! SIDEKICK! AND CROSS RIGHT AT THE CHEEK! JOSH LOST HIS BALANCE! HE SEEMS TO ALSO LOSE HIS CONTROL. HE IS KNOCKED OUT! CAN HE GET UP?NO! HE IS KNOCKED OUT! ITS OFFICIAL! PAE CHONG-YOL IS THE UNDISPUTED HEAVYWEIGHT KICKBOXER CHAMPION OF THE WORLD!"
This is Pae Chong-Yol. Currently the undisputed heavyweight kickboxer champion of the world. He had a decent career in classic boxing, but only in the lightweight and middleweight division. But he proved himself worthy of fighting with the greatest boxers in the world on many occasions. 50 wins and no losses. He is the most scientific fighter of all time, playing mind games with his opponents. Books, documentaries, and movies were made about his inspiring life. He also wrote many books on martial arts explaining his theory and techniques in the field, however his books only consist of contents of boxing and kickboxing. There was not even one information of about grappling and wresting in any of his books.
Many critics noticed this and made this his weakness. But Pae Chong-Yol decided to retaliate by challenging the new MMA heavyweight champion, Conor McGregor who recently came into the heavyweight division and destroyed everyone in that division.
"I'll prove to the world that I'm not only the greatest kickboxer in the history of the world but the greatest fighter in the world," Said Pae Chong-Yol in one of the interviews.
"I'll destroy Chong-Yol in one round effortlessly. He is underestimating me and everyone in the sport. He might be a good boxer and the greatest kickboxer. But he only has very little time to learn about wrestling. I bet 200 million right now that I'll defeat that fool in a single round!"Said Conor.
This was the most anticipated fight of the century!
The seats were filled with excited fans.
Pae Chong-Yol came into the octagon with a grand entrance using a red robe with a crown on his head. Conor also did the same but his robe was the flag of his country.
"This is the fight that you have all been waiting for!!! In the left corner of the octagon, we have the former lightweight double-champion! And currently the undisputed heavyweight MMA champiooon!!! And in the right corner with 50 wins and all knockouts! The undefeated undisputed heavyweight kickboxing champion of the world!"
And so they fought.
"Pae Chong-Yol is throwing a few jabs on Conor and none of it is missing. And he is also giving some light kicks!. Very smart move and articulate movements by Chong-Yol here. Woah! he is also dodging all of Conor's punches like it's nothing!"
"Well, you could only expect the best by the greatest kickboxer of all time!"
And at this moment everyone thought that Pae-Chong Yol was winning. However, Chong-Yol himself was a bit confused. He was sure that he was winning and he thought this was a one-sided fight. But Conor showed no sort of worried expression, in fact, he was smirking! Chong-Yol quickly focused on the fight and thought that Conor was just playing mind games with him.
'I should finish this quickly.'
Pae Ching Chong-Yol saw an opening in Conor's defense and decided to throw a high kick at Conor's head.
"That's a high kick by Chong-Yol! Conor is finished...Wait! What's happening?! Do you see this ?"
Chong-Yol suddenly felt that his kick didn't hit the head. In fact, Conor was grabbing his leg.
Pah!Pah!
Chong-Yol threw some jabs at Conor in hopes that Conor would let go of his leg. But all of his punches were dodged. Pae Chong-Yol hasn't encountered such problems before and immediately panicked. He used his other leg and tried to kick his opponent but he lost his balance and immediately saw a big wide smile on Conor's face.
"I told you I would knock you out in the first round!" laughed Conor.
Conor carried Chong-Yol by his legs and threw him on the octagon cage.His head directly hit the cage and he heard something...
CRACK!
After hearing that sound he immediately blacked out and lost his consciousness.
"arghhh"
Chong-Yol woke up and was immediately met with confusion.
He woke up in a room that looked ancient but not old like those from the Chinese and Korean dramas.
"This must be a prank" he muttered silently.
But as he got down from the bed he immediately realized that something was off.
He felt a little bit heavier and shorter and his hair was too long.
He looked at his hand and it looked like a girl's hand. He quickly became worried at opened his pants to see if his manhood was still there. Thankfully it was there.
He walked up to a mirror close to him.
'What the heck is going on!'
His body wasn't his own...
"Did I transmigrate?...."
In Chong-Yol's spare time, he would often read web novels about transmigrators and system users. So he guessed that he was one of them now.
'But if I transmigrated...doesn't it mean that I died???'
He thought through it and realized he lost the MMA fight and also died.
'Well, that's a shame.'
He failed to prove to the world that he was the greatest fighter in the world but also died in the process of his failure. Upon all the deaths that happened in the history of mankind, he was sure that his death was the most cringe-worthy.
But it was no use crying over spilled milk so Chong-Yol immediately tried to think of a solution right now.
'It seems the owner of this body is pretty rich considering the size of this room and the expensive-looking things in it. And I look pretty young, maybe about 13 to 15 years old. And considering the high percentage of fat and slouched back that he had, the previous owner must be lazy. I also smell a small stench of alcohol.'
Chong-Yol stretched his back and stood up straight. If he continued slouching his back he would eventually have back problems.
Suddenly a thought came into his mind.
'Do I have a system?'
Having a system meant that he is definitely the main character of this world and it would help him to rise to the very top of this world. However, he was still in his room so he didn't know what kind of world this was yet and his only information is that this world is ancient-like.
"System!" he shouted but nothing popped up.
"Panel!" he shouted but again nothing happened.
"Hmmm...what about...Status!" suddenly a light blue holographic panel appeared right before his eyes.
"Yes I have a system!" he rejoiced as he started fantasizing about what he could do with it.
He tried to fiddle and interact with his newfound system.
A frown appeared on his face.
"Nothing is working..."

About: Third Son of Pu Jung-Su.Known as the Fat Pig of The Pu Clan. Alcoholic and frequent visitor and VIP of brothels.
Save Targeted Status?
Yes/No
...
This was everything that was shown on the system panel. Nothing else.
He was expecting that he could interact with the system to find a way to improve himself. But there was nothing other than being able to save his own status. For the status to work he had to also go in front of the mirror, which meant that he could also use this status panel on anyone else. It was useful but it was not overpowered. He was disappointed but he has gone through life and went straight to the top, and he was confident he could do it even without a proper system.
"Yes," He decided to save his own status since carrying a mirror everywhere to check his status would be slightly troublesome.
The door opened and a girl that was about his current age appeared.
"Young master your food is ready."She said with a slightly shaky voice.
'She seems to be fearful of me...'
"Leave it there." He said with a friendly tone.
The girl seems confused since her young master would often shout at her. But she decided to not question it and go on with her job.
Chong-Yol looked at the girl and muttered silently"Status"

Just by looking at her status he already deduces two things.
1. He is currently in the martial world Murim. And he remembers that from the novels that he read.
2. The original owner of the body wasn't only a pathetic person but also a scumbag.
(Authors Note: I redid this chapter and the others since the previous versions were trashy. So I took a few months to think about the plot. I hope you enjoy this chapter! Also, check out my other novels.)
