    Souther's style.


    (南斗鳳凰拳, South Dipper Fenghuang Phoenix Fist) is the most powerful form of Nanto Seiken. It is a free-form style, without stances or forced routine. Due to the lack of stance, this style has no defense against attacks, instead focusing only on pure speed and attacking power. The user has the ability to glide forward, leading into a powerful scissor attack. This style is taught in the ways of Isshi Sōden (一子相伝), which roughly translates as 'there can absolutely be only one successor to this style'; this means that the successor must kill his teacher.
    


    Techniques

    • Kyokusei Jūji Ken (極星十字拳, Pole Star Cross Fist): An attack which leaves a cross-shaped wound on the opponent's chest.
    • Tenshō Jūji Hō (天翔十字鳳, Heaven-Soaring Cross Phoenix): The style's ultimate technique. Souther takes a stance with his arms held out evenly, like a cross. As the name suggests, it's launched into a powerful aerial attack. This is the only fighting stance taken by Souther, and is only taken when a worthy opponent appears.
    • Yūshō Gaku (悠翔嶽, Distant Soaring Peak) a rapid-fire stabbing attack used against Raoh in the Ten no Haoh anime.
