85 Legendary Strength! (1/2)

Seiji wanted to duel in his school uniform, but the karate club captain lectured him on how disrespectful that would be, and loaned Seiji his own spare uniform for Seiji to change into.

And so, Seiji went and got changed. After he walked out of the changing room, many people… or rather, all the girls’ eyes lit up!

Tall, handsome, and strong. Even if he was wearing a karate uniform that wasn’t a perfect fit on him, he still cut a rather heroic figure, and his face was so cool that the girls felt like they were being blinded!

Cough cough, they shouldn’t be falling in love with their opponent! Mm… but after he loses, he’d become one of them, and then…

Most of the female members were getting slightly lost in their daydreams.

The male members were struck wordless.

The atmosphere in the room had subtly changed, but Kyosuke, who was denser than most people , didn’t notice at all. He simply sighed to himself, thinking that this Seigo fellow was way too handsome!

He definitely didn’t want his girlfriend to meet a person like this… He suddenly had the feeling that maybe it wouldn’t be a good idea to accept Seigo into his club after all…

At any rate, it was time to begin.

According to Rion and Kotomi’s request, they were going to use the rules of a real karate contest.

Generally speaking, it was illegal to strike anywhere above the collarbone with your fists, palms, or elbows. Pulling, scratching, hugging, and pushing were forbidden. Attacking your opponent’s back or crotch was banned.

If you caused your opponent to lose the ability to fight for 3 seconds or less, you would be awarded with ”1 point” while disabling the opponent for more than 3 seconds would result in being awarded ”2 points.” Accumulating 2 points resulted in an instant victory.

As a non-martial artist, Seiji understood the rules as forbidding the use of scratching or other similar dubious techniques and not being allowed to attack the area near the head, back, or crotch. He also realized that he had to disable his opponents for a minimum of three seconds.

Yep, it seemed simple enough.

He stood in the middle of the dojo and looked inquiringly at the twin sisters.

Rion and Kotomi exchanged glances before taking turns to call out three names.

The members they called stood up… they were three girls!

Seiji frowned. It seemed they were going to start off this way…

”They actually went with three girls for the first round… They want Seiji to feel uneasy fighting girls and waste his energy,” Chiaki muttered to herself.

”How could they… It’s so low…” Mika seemed concerned.

Hoshi furrowed his brows and bit his lips anxiously.

Likewise, Kyosuke Akanishi also furrowed his brows.

With everybody thinking different things, the three female karate club members walked to the center of the dojo, glanced towards the twins, before exchanging awkward glances with each other as they lined up in front of the handsome boy.

Seiji smiled towards them politely.

The three karate club members’ faces flushed red as they were slightly dazzled by his beauty.

”Prepare!” Kyosuke shouted, acting as the judge. ”Bow!”

The three girls bowed slightly towards Seiji.

Seiji returned their bow out of respect.

”Begin the competition!”

”Hah!” the three girls shouted in unison as they moved into a fighting stance!

Of course, Seiji didn’t shout anything.

He immediately went on the offense!

He dashed three steps forward, covering the distance in an instant. He sent out a palm strike, aiming at the first girl’s solar plexus.

At almost the same time, his other palm flew towards the second girl’s solar plexus.

He followed up by twisting his body like a whirlwind, unleashing a third palm strike!

*Pound! Boom! Smack!*

The spectators only saw Seiji’s tall figure flicker as three loud sounds rang out in the dojo, and the three girls fell over almost simultaneously!!

Even Kyosuke, who was the closest spectator, failed to grasp Seiji’s attack.

When he blinked, he saw the three girls collapse onto the soft exercise mats! They all clutched their stomachs with pained expressions.

Seigo Harano had already returned to his original location and was standing there silently, his expression unruffled.

Everyone fell silent.

The three girls’ pained moans were the only audible sound. One of them ground her teeth and attempted to stand up, but immediately clutched at her stomach again as her knees buckled.

‘Did I use too much force?’ Despite his seemingly calm exterior, Seiji was rather worried about the girls.

What just happened!?

Every karate club member was plunged into a state of shock.

The duel was over before they could even see what was going on!

So fast…

It wasn’t that the duel ended too quickly; Seigo was just too swift!

How could this be possible… Even though it actually happened right before them, the karate club members still found the situation difficult to believe.

Chiaki, Mika, and Hoshi also received an incredible shock.

They were all stupefied. Although they knew Seiji was very strong and believed that he wouldn’t be easily defeated … this was so far out of the ordinary!

Chiaki and Mika then recalled how Seiji caught the drama club vice president’s book attacks.
