The two previously met in the semifinals of the 2023 Hangzhou Asian Games and the group stage of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, with Shigekix winning both. But, he acknowledged the rapid development of Chinese breaking.

"China's breaking has progressed so fast," Shigekix said. "From the youth to the adult levels, I've seen so many talented dancers develop quickly. Their moves are getting cleaner and more personal. Litheing is one of the standouts. Every time I come to China, I feel that pressure from how fast they're improving."

Rather than feel threatened, Shigekix embraces the challenge.

"Competing with fast-rising new dancers like Lithe-ing pushes me to keep going. You can't stay still at the top. You have to evolve."

For the Chinese B-Boy, facing a world-class opponent like Shigekix doesn't discourage him, it gives him clarity.

"I felt the gap today," Lithe-ing said. "But, it also made me think."

"What's impressive about Shigekix is not just that he's been at a high level for so long, but that he keeps evolving — technically, creatively, mentally.

"His control, his timing, his presence on stage — those are all things I need to work on. I hope next time, I can bring a more complete version of myself."

After the final, the two shared a smile and embraced. The result was decided, but that fleeting, improvised moment of "drunken fist and cheers" left a lasting impression.

For the battle, they were opponents, but on the stage, they were two dancers sharing a moment of mutual understanding and respect.
