Capítulo 40: Chapter 40 - Over

THUD!

The sound of a bone cracking echoed across the arena, making the spectators gasp before they erupted into cheers. Vernon had just unleashed a perfect low kick, hitting Marino's thigh base and completely shattering his balance, forcing him forward and destroying his confidence.

Without giving Marino a moment to recover, Vernon followed up with a brutal kick to Marino's face, snapping Marino's head backward with astonishing force. Marino staggered, struggling to stay upright as the crowd's cheering grew even louder.

From the sidelines, Oliver clenched his teeth and muttered angrily, "Get up, idiot!"

'Shit, how did he recover so fast?' Marino struggled to rise, even though his body felt crushed after Vernon's merciless strikes.

Marino tried to stand tall, though he was clearly wobbling, his head pounding and his body covered in bruises.
