Bab 9: The Last Exam Match, Defeat In Two Minutes!
Thanks to his improved Intelligence, Arnold had really obtained a rise in his tactical knowledge. While Rowan madly charged at him, Arnold stood very close to one of the ring corners, pondering on what to do next. As his Intelligence manifested, a great idea flashed into his head, making him let out an evil smile.
When Rowan had rushed close to launching a head attack on his belly, Arnold quickly moved to the side in an instant with the help of his Agility.
It was too late for late for Rowan who was charging with incredible speed, and with a bang, he clashed his shoulder against the second turnbuckle, causing him to exclaim in pain.
"Arghh... Shit!"
Due to the force of the clash, Rowan fell outside the ring as he clutched his injured right shoulder, a terrifying look appearing on his face. He didn't expect Arnold to be so fast in dodging his Bellynod attack after applying so much speed.
Almost all final-year students wouldn't be able to escape such attacks at the very beginning of the match because even most of them would be frightened by his sudden terrifying attack. Not even some low-level superstars in Grindhouse Wrestling could even dare to dodge.
However, Arnold didn't only move away before he could deliver the attack, he made him hit the turnbuckle, falling outside the ring with his right shoulder almost fractured. Although it was because of Rowan's uncontrollable speed, Arnold's Intelligence was noticed.
Arnold quickly rushed to the ringside and pushed Rowan Pierce back to the ring. All the students watching behind the barricade had their mouths open in shock, observing Arnold's astonishing first impression.
Of course, everyone knew that Arnold was really bad at his Agility lately. This was one of the causes of his constant failure, but now, how could he be so fast to dodge Rowan Pierce's Bellynod?
The Rising Impact University's wrestling arena seemed to have frozen, all eyes on the ring as they watched Max Fury dominate.
After taking Rowan Pierce back to the ring, Arnold didn't hesitate to use one of his skills. He wanted to end the match as quickly as he could now that he had the opportunity. If he didn't use the opportunity, things could come turning in Rowan Pierce's favor later on.
Arnold grabbed Rowan Pierce and pulled his head in between his legs. With the help of his improved Strength, Arnold was able to lift and carry him on his shoulders, attempting to deliver a Powerbomb.
"Whoa! How come he had gotten so strong?!"
"Huh??? Is Arnold really carrying someone weighing 233 pounds? How is that possible?"
"Use the announcement table, Max!"
The students watching behind the barricades caused a murmuring cheer from all angles, but Arnold didn't dare to pay any attention.
Using all the strength he could, Arnold slammed Rowan Pierce's back on the mat with great force, causing the former Grindhouse Omega Champion terrifying pain.
*Boom*
"I guess this will do... Let me cover," Arnold muttered and covered Rowan, raising his left leg slightly.
"One. Two..."
Rowan Pierce kicked out at the count of two.
Arnold shrugged with a look of disdain on his face.
Without wasting a second, he lifted Rowan Pierce again and almost launched another Powerbomb before the system suddenly sounded in his head.
[What are you doing, host? Deliver Neckbuster already! This is a great opportunity.]
Arnold was snapped out of his heedlessness at that instant. He quickly changed his mind and locked Rowan's neck in his armpit, delivering a vertical suplex right after.
No, it was a vertical suplex that the students expected, however, they clearly saw Rowan's neck hitting the mat with a great impact.
*Boom*
The eyes of everyone including the university staffs who were standing on the alleyway to the ring lit up in amazement.
Unbelievably, the frail Max Fury they knew had transformed into a strong wrestling figure... Almost everyone couldn't believe it.
Arnold gasped for a second and quickly covered Rowan Pierce again. This time the former Grindhouse Omega Champion seemed to have given passing out vibes as he couldn't even express the pain of the Neckbuster Finisher.
"One. Two. Three."
Ding. Ding. Ding.
"Here is your winner, Max Fury!" The announcer shouted with a tone of amazement just as the bell rang.
Arnold stood up with a majestic motion and glanced around, observing the astonished faces of his mates. Everyone seemed to have been turned to frozen solid as they watched Rowan Pierce's unconscious body lying on the ring.
Without a doubt, Rowan Pierce was considered one of the toughest opponents assigned to fight the students in the exam. Not only that he was a former Grindhouse Omega Champion, but he was widely known for his Bellynod move that totally changed the flow of a match when given to an opponent. He always came out victorious in any match he made this move, however, today's trial just came against him.
The weak frail boy Max Fury finished him within two minutes!
Arnold didn't waste much time in the ring after being demonstrated as the winner and left. Those who usually called him a Loser suddenly had their mouths shut as they stole expressionless gazes at him, making him want to laugh out loud.
However, even Arnold himself couldn't believe what just happened. Imagining his once frail body performing such an unbelievable attack on a Grindhouse superstar almost made him go crazy, but he only pretended as if he had this all planned and left the arena with a calm, victorious smile.
...
Two men sat and watched the unbelievable scene that had just happened in the ring with Mrs May in her office. They were clad in black suits and had a Grindhouse staff ID commissioned on the laces around their necks.
Just by seeing the logo of the Grindhouse Wrestling Show on their card, one would notice that they weren't superstars but officials.
Their face seemed to be painted in amazement as they watched Max Fury's move especially, and even Mrs May who knew how terrible his skills had been could not help opening her mouth wide.
"He has such a great skill! You didn't tell me that you have such great talent in the university this year," one of the officials with a bald head said with a smirk.
"He only improved his skills lately, sir. I never expected such a performance myself," Mrs May shrugged.
"It must have taken a lot of hard work for him to achieve such great power at this early stage of his career. This kind of talent is really needed in the show," the second officer, a middle-aged man with brown skin said as he caressed his jaw.
"That's a fact! We are going to sign him to the roster," the bald man spoke in a bold tone.
"Excuse me? We already have the list of those who passed the exams, sir," Mrs May cut in with a slight frown.
"Of course, I know. This guy must definitely be on the list, right?" The dark-skinned man asked.
However, before Mrs May could give a reply, the other man interrupted.
"Even if he isn't on the list, he is going with us. He would become a Grindhouse Wrestling superstar!"
