Chapter 410 - 410: Let The Real Match Begin (Part 3) (1/2)
The four of them descending the stadium earned their block's attention at first before everyone in the stadium did. The camera caught them and they were displayed on the big screen.
”Ohhh! Four brave contestants? This must be your lucky day, Mochi!”
”One.” Ethan loudly corrected the emcee. ”It's just me.”
Lillie lightly glared over her shoulder and at their unruly siblings.
”We're just here watch closely and cheer for him!” Gabriel waved his hand, quickly explaining himself to his sister.
”Just you? Sorry to disappoint you, kid. But you won't be enough to beat me. How about the four of you at once?” Mochi pointed at them. ”Come on, grant this old man a favor, will you? I promise I'll hold back like what I did with Monk Boy.”
He jabbed his thumb behind him, where two medical teams carried the unconscious Faithless Monk on the stretcher and towards the clinic.
”Just me.” Ethan sternly said in determination, stepping inside the ring.
”Aww, come on~” Mochi whɨnėd childishly, dangling his arms left and right. ”You guys are a bunch of cowards. You're no fun.”
”Don't speak too soon, old man. You don't know what my brother is capable of.” Yifei warned, her expression void of the usual playfulness.
”Fine.” Mochi drawled and rolled his eyes. ”But if I knocked him out in less than five seconds, I'm coming after the three of you.”
Lillie, Gabriel, and Yifei didn't flinch from his threat.
”You'll regret that,” Ethan lowly said, his tone etched with ice.
”What?” Mochi turned to him.
”No one threatens my family and leaves unscathed.” This further fueled Ethan's resolve to make this master of his regret taking him as a student.
”Contestants, are you ready?!”
He'll make him pay on behalf of his and his Commanders' younger selves' suffering under his training, for disappearing suddenly, for almost being the cause of his heart attack when he found out Lillie was in the hospital, for damaging Lillie's car in an attempt to steal it.
And lastly, for threatening their younger siblings.
He has 'a lot' of scores to settle.
”BEGIN!”
***
Disbelief.
Time trickled seemingly slow but 10 minutes had already passed, and the enigma who deny the odds of having a chance of winning against the ruthless champion was still standing and fighting.
What's more shocking was that he didn't look like he's breaking a sweat. After observing the extent of Mochi's strength, they were expecting to see the brave fool to be lying on his pool of blood after two or three strikes from Mochi's deadly fists.
”You're strong.” Mochi acknowledged with a crazed grin after his mysterious opponent dodged yet another deadly blow.
The two contenders have yet to land a punch on one another. Their strengths were on par that they're canceling each other out.
