Ace Of Terrans-Chapter 324 Sensational.
Quo Lina was fighting with Alena Craft on the platform, and her speed was shocking everyone. The girl from the advanced class was underestimating her and did not put serious effort into her initial blows. This caught her by surprise, and Quo Lina ceased the initiative of the fight with just a slight blink, she was at a disadvantage.
Quo Lina did not show her complete strength to her, she did not know how much effort she should put in, after all, even if she knew the techniques of the opponent from the past match videos, she did not know how much strength was appropriate to use. However, she did not underestimate the enemy.
Suddenly, Alicia let out a loud roar and her body changed. This was her ability, to increase her muscle mass. In just a blink, Alicia changed from a beautiful girl to a muscle mountain. The blows she threw made the air around her fists move. Quo Lina moved her head to the side to dodge but the air movement still left a slight cut on her cheekbone.
She understood the danger and quickly retreated. The two people stood ten meters away from each other and the duel seemed to have come to a pause. The students all took this momentary disruption as a chance to discuss it amongst themselves. The advanced class was biased towards Alicia, but they could not turn their eyes away from the performance Quo Lina had put forward.
Chou from the special class, said in a low voice, “Lina is hurt.”
Theseus shook his head as he focused his gaze on the streak of blood flowing down the cheek of Quo Lina and said, “Superficial wound, will not affect her battle capability, however, the real trouble comes from the air movement following the blows. If the speed of retreat lags a bit, you will be caught up in the follow-up.”
Vanessa heard this and said, “If Lina inclines toward retreating and playing defensive for a bit, she might have a chance to win this duel. Alicia will exhaust her reserves.”
Theseus nodded and said, “Although you are correct, it will simply impossible. Do you not see the look on the faces of these two people?” 𝑓𝓇𝑒𝑒𝚠e𝘣𝓷𝘰ѵe𝑙.com
The class turned their gaze to Quo Lina’s face, they all noticed a slight curl on her lips, then they turned to look at Shi Lang and found him standing with a sunny expression on his face. They were confused and Theseus said, “They are not aiming to win the fight, but to go the distance.”
The class seemed to have been enlightened by this statement. This was something they did not know. Theseus saw their faces and fell silent.
…
On the stage, Quo Lina did not pay attention to the thin streak of blood treading down her face. Her gaze was set on Alena. If earlier she was looking like a scout sensing her prey, now she switched to a hunter mode. Her eyes had turned indifferent and cold. It was not an intention to kill the prey, but to defeat it and tame it to do her bidding.
Shi Lang saw this and nodded. Quo Lina decided that the initiative have to be snatched back. Alena charged forward, and her speed was so fast that she gave off a whooshing sound as she moved. Quo Lina bent her knees and turned sideways, she caught the fist aimed at her temple. Then she turned around whilst holding the wrist of her opponent, and since she was petite, she could not lift Alena over her shoulder, but her elbow compensated the latter with a hit deep in the guts.
The implementation of the blow was precise, compact, and perfectly timed. The diaphgram muscles of Alena were stuck in a place for a few moments. This will obstruct her breathing, and when the muscles do not get enough oxygen, they will start burning, and effect the fighting capabilities of the person.
This state of the enemy will last only for a few moments, and Quo Lina will exploit her. As soon as the blow disrupted the breathing, Quo Lina turned back around, and her palm chop landed on the side of Alena’s neck. The impact restricted the movement of her windpipe. The right hand then turned into a fist and was aimed right at the chin of the already suffocated girl.
However, Alena was not a punching bag, she leaned forward and her knee landed in the abdomen of Quo Lina, the intention was to shake her off, however, Quo Lina saw this coming, she quickly used her toes and jumped to reduce the impact. Alena was strong enough to support her opponent’s weight and became a pillar.
Quo Lina avoided the attack, and Alena whose knee met with air, lost her balance, and tripped forward. This was occurrence set off a wave of surprise in the hearts of the people. They could not believe that a special class student could overwhelm the star of the advanced class this much. As soon as Alena tripped, Quo Lina changed the strategy, she had yet to let go of the arm she grasped earlier.
This was noticed by a lot of students and teachers. They were not fools to overlook such a impressive detail. A student asked in a loud voice, “How is she holding onto Alena for so long?”
However, no one could come up with an answer. Quo Lina, in the meantime, had initiated a grappling lock, tying down the right arm of the opponent. In a kimura lock, Quo Lina said, “Do not struggle, I will break your shoulder.”
The voice was like a whisper, only Alena could hear it at this moment. She was a star of the advanced class, a genius who excelled in technology and battle skills equally. She was looked up to by all her peer, and Shi Lang was her idol.
When Alena found that Shi Lang had taken charge as the teacher for the special class, she was shocked and then disappointed, she threw this challenge in the desire to show Shi Lang that she was better than the special class, yet here she was, pinned down to the floor by a girl she did not even know.
The challenge was intended to deal with the strongest among the problematic children, but she did not expect to suffer this much. As a genius, she was not fooled. She knew it very well, that Quo Lina had suppressed her from the very start of this duel. Quo Lina did not underestimate her, she gave her best and returned her blows with all sincerity.
Alena gradually lost her will to fight and with her free hand she tapped the floor thrice. Yuu came forward and said, “Alena tapped out, the match is over. Quo Lina wins!”
Quo Lina gave up the arm hold and stood up carefully. She also intended to help Alena stand up, but the latter shook her head dejectedly. At this moment, the crowd was silent, most of the people were looking at the scene in a daze, while some sighed. Yuu had passed the verdict and they had also witnessed the fight clearly.
They looked down on the Special Class, thinking that they were putting up a facade, but that was not the case, and now only did they realize how good these guys could be, and they were simply surprised by this. Shi Lang sighed and decided to step onto the stage. His arrival caught attention of everyone.
Almost everyone thought, that Shi Lang was the reason why the special class student was able to trample the star of the advanced class. Shi Lang did not want this notion to circulate, this would be putting him at the front while the students of his class will suffer humility. As a teacher, how could he allow such a thing?
So, he stood on the stage, looking at Alena, and said, “Stand up. Look at my eyes.”
Alena did not want to face him, but she could not embarrass him by avoiding him at this moment, specially when the tone of his voice was so gentle. She stood up and retracted her ability, her breathing was still short, but it was not as painful as before. Alena raised her head to look at Shi Lang, who was smiling at her.
Shi Lang said, “You are strong. Strength is not all about winning all the time. Strength comes from the inside, when you know have the guts to admit defeat, and then stand up again to overcome your weaknesses. Remember my words, you do not lose because the other party is stronger, but whe you do not know what your mistakes are.
When you initiated the duel, you might have underestimated Quo Lina, but that is just normal, after all, my students do not have high endowments. However, they have been struggling to move forward on their own, and doing things their own way. They have the will to grind themselves to the ground daily and then come back here in the morning.
They are not problematic, they are unique and the generic world does not know how to guide them. You are a strong fighter and have preservence, I hope that you take my word to your heart and stand up again, fight with Quo Lina and defeat her. However, do not make this a obsession, our biggest opponent is ourselves. Do you understand?”
Shi Lang was uttering pure and plain nonsense, but he had to do something, and he managedto encourage this girl in front of him, who bowed and said, “Thank you for your guidance, Teacher Shi.”
Shi Lang nodded and was about to get down, when Yuu said, “Lang, you taught her good.”
The crowd burst into cheers. A sensation was created after this duel.
