Bab 66: Influence

The crowd exclaimed in shock. The strongest student, the Teen Karate Champion, was thrown to the ground!

'How could you allow him to do that?' The bald-headed master wondered with an ugly frown, but then he had a realization.

'Markus is simply too inexperienced when fighting against opponents who use mixed martial arts. He was too focused on Adam's boxing, or was that slap-boxing, causing him to completely forget the real threat—Aikido!'

Markus coughed a little bit of blood, and his vision turned slightly blurry.

'N-no!'

He quickly threw a kick from his down position and hit Adam in the forearm, pushing him back a step.

Markus quickly flipped back to his feet, then, with a fury-filled gaze, rushed after Adam and started throwing a series of punches.

Adam's expression didn't change, and he quickly slapped the punches away, but then he noticed something strange. There wasn't any strength behind those punches!
