I am the Entertainment Tycoon-Chapter 235 Martial Arts Class II: Red Belt

Martial Arts Dojo, Pedrarruna Manor, Elffire City.

"Ayia, Shizuka. I know you two practice some fighting styles already. Can you tell which ones are them?" Theo asked as he looked at the two girls.

"We are proficient in Judo and Karate." Ayia replied.

"We also are capable of free-style fighting." Shizuka added.

The two girls were from the Yamada Family.

So, they were direct descendants of the founding clan.

And like the Japanese heritage in Theo's last life, the Judo and Karate fighting style came from the Yamato Clan on the Azure Star.

The term Judo translates as "the gentle way." It is a competitive martial art, with the goal of either throwing or taking an opponent to the ground, immobilizing him with a pin, or forcing him to submit with a hold. Striking blows are used only rarely.

While Karate is predominantly a striking art using punching, kicking, knee strikes, elbow strikes, and open-hand techniques such as knife-hands, spear-hands, and palm-heel strikes. Historically, and in some modern styles, grappling, throws, joint locks, restraints, and vital point strikes are also taught.

The two fighting styles complemented each other the same way Jiu-Jitsu and Krav Maga did.

Ayia was a 4th Dan Black Belt in Judo and Karate.

While Shizuka was a 5th Dan Black Belt in Judo and Karate.

Shizuka was one Dan away from the Red & White Belt in Judo and Karate.

This was the belt after the black belt!

If she was able to get the Red-White Belt, she would be even closer to the Red Belt.

In Judo and Karate, the Red Belt is reserved for exemplary masters of the art and is above the black belt.

The Red Belt is the symbol of a Grandmaster.

Most Martial Arts use the Red Belt as the symbol of the highest grade a martial artist can achieve in it.

And it was Ayia and Shizuka's dream to get the red belt as soon as the first lesson they had with the grandmaster of their family.

When the girls saw the Red Belt on the waist of the Grandmaster when they were kids, it became their obsession to earn the red belt too.

That's one of the reasons they were so excited about Theo's class.

This was a real grandmaster!

A Red Belt!

They would be much closer to their dream with Theo's help.

Theo looked at the girls and nodded.

Even though he did not have a red belt, he was even more proficient in martial arts than the other red belts out there.

If he fought any red belt, he would win without a doubt.

After all, his martial arts knowledge was imprinted in his head with the help of the system.

And the most amazing thing was that Theo was a red belt in several fighting styles.

Including Judo and Karate.

As one most popular styles from his past life, these two styles were one of the first he gained control of.

"Aurora is learning Krav Maga and Jiu-Jitsu." Theo said as he thought which exercise would be better.

After thinking for a while, he said, "The better option is for us to spar. This way I can observe your techniques and think of the best way to train you two."?

The girls' eyes lit up when they heard that.

They all loved sparring.

The thrill of fighting was addictive to fighters like them.

"Aurora and Ayia. You two will pair up and fight. Free styled. So, you can use any move. Except for elbows." He said as he looked at the two girls.

Elbows moves were too dangerous to use in training.

If the elbow hit the head, the victim could suffer serious damage.

"Oh, and wear protection." He added as he looked at their excited faces.

The girls nodded and picked up gloves and leg protectors by the side of the tatami.

It could not be helped, Theo saw their excitement and he knew they were going to fight for real.

So, these two pieces of equipment were to protect them from eventual blows.

Ayia and Aurora were looking at each other with burning eyes.

They wanted to fight already.

Theo nodded and looked at Shizuka.

"Shizuka, you will fight me. Karate style only." He declared as he looked at the beautiful black-haired girl.

"Okay." She replied with shining eyes.

She was as excited as the other two girls. 𝐟re𝐞w𝐞𝒃𝓃𝒐𝐯𝚎𝒍.c૦𝚖

After both of them put on the protection, they stood across from each other and looked at each other.

"Hey!" Theo saluted.

"Hey!" Shizuka saluted back.

They bumped their gloves and the spar started.

They both assumed the fighting stance of Karate and circulated around each other.

Suddenly, Theo moved upon her to kick her head.

But that was just a faint because when his right leg was in mid-air it stopped, Theo jumped with his left leg and kicked her head with the left leg.

It sounds complicated, but this was a basic faint kick.

Every Karate practitioner should know how to protect against this kick.

At this first moment, Theo just wanted to know what level Shizuka was at.

That's why he was not using any other complicated Karate technique.

And as he expected, Shizuka blocked the kick without problems.

She even moved to counterattack, but Theo had already retreated when her low jab went for his abdomen.

It was not by chance that Shizuka was one Dan away from the Red-White Belt.

Theo continued applying basic techniques, but as the spar went on, he started upping the level of the blows.

It was then that Shizuka noticed that Theo was also proficient in Karate!

When she watched his fight against the bandits, he did not use any Karate techniques.

He used others that made Ayia and Shizuka identify him as a grandmaster of another fighting style.

The girls were excited about the class because they would have the chance to fight against a grandmaster.

But as the fight went on, Theo pressured Shizuka little by little, and she became aware that Theo was much better than her.

She was speechless.

Every move of him was seamless and without any wasted movement.

It seemed as though he was dancing.

A dangerous and fatal dance.

And it was through her struggles that Shizuka concluded that Theo was a Karate Red Belt!

And when she concluded that, she became more shocked than ever before she got in her life.

A 19yo Karate Red Belt!

And possibly another Red Belt in another Martial Art.

She could not believe what she was thinking.

But she had to because it was the only explanation.

His proficiency could not be faked, after all, that's why she was struggling to fight him.

While Theo was testing Shizuka, the other two girls were fighting too.

But their fight was somewhat peculiar.

Ayia was much more experienced, after all, she was a 4th Dan Black Belt in Karate and Judo.

But even then, she did manage to inflict many problems on Aurora.

The silver-haired girl practiced Krav Maga and Jiu-Jitsu. ƒ𝘳𝗲𝑒𝒘𝐞𝚋𝚗𝐨v𝘦l.𝒄o𝐦

These two fighting styles perfectly fused making her defense techniques amazing.

Much more because she had Theo as her sensei.

If Ayia went for a Judo grabbing technique to make Aurora fall down, Aurora would use a Jiu-Jitsu technique to defend.

And the same happened to the other two techniques.

But even though the spar was even, that only happened because Ayia did not use all her strength.

After all, how could a black belt be even with a person who only practiced for 6 months?

But that did not diminish Ayia's shining eyes as she observed Aurora's techniques.

She was able to notice that the techniques that Aurora was using were amazing.

She had never seen something like it before.

Now she wanted to learn these techniques too!

Aurora was giving her all in her fight against Ayia, she knew her opponent was better than her.

But she still enjoyed the fight as Ayia enjoyed it too.

The two pairs fought with excited faces for a while.

But that was only the beginning of the practice.

How would it end?
