"Three!"
"I surrender!"
Silence...
Silence spread everywhere as soon as the referee finished the count since Caen surrendered instantly.
The woman had just prepared to attack, but her jaws dropped, leaving her mouth wide open. A look of disbelief spread across her face, but she sure wasn't alone. The same look spread across almost everyone in the stands.
