Suddenly she found an opportunity, and shouted that now was the time to attack with everything she had. With a powerful impulse the girl advanced with impressive speed towards him.
The examiners wondered what he had done, and the director said that his attack had pierced her defences. The redhead warrior shouted that the battle was not over yet, and continued her attack without hesitation.
She threw the broken tip of her spear like a projectile, to hit him from a distance. With glowing eyes, she shouted that if one approach did not work, she would try something else. Upon landing, the girl prepared to use an area attack with the rest of her spear. Louis looked up, surprised by his opponent's new strategy in the battle.
Then the redhead created several copies of herself, and they all advanced to attack at the same time. The copies glowed with a red energy and rushed to surround the commoner from all sides. With that, all the attacks concentrated on a single point, to defeat him once and for all.
But Louis just gave a slight smile, showing that he was not the least bit worried. He shouted, "So what?" and released several energy hands to defend against the attack. One of the astral hands caught the tip of the girl's spear, stopping the blow in midair. With a firm grip, the energy hand managed to completely stop the warrior's attack. With that, a large energy explosion occurred, and the astral hands blocked all the attacks.
The redhead girl was completely shocked, and shouted, not understanding what had just happened. The director explained that the boy seemed to be stopping the spear's rotation with a special technique. He said that he had never seen anything like it, and that a commoner stopping the Duran technique was incredible.
With his eyes glowing, Louis used his energy hands to push the girl away. The young man released a shockwave that threw the heiress back with great force. Faye planted her spear in the ground to stop herself, raising a huge cloud of dust with the impact.
Annoyed with the situation, the girl cursed and could not believe that she had been outmatched in that way. She got up and asked what kind of strange technique he had used in the fight. Louis explained that it was a type of parry from martial arts, to cancel the force of the blow. The redhead was completely confused by the explanation, and did not understand anything about the technique. Louis then told her to just think of it as a technique, and advanced for the final attack.
Surprised by his speed, the heiress barely had time to react to the boy's movement. With incredible speed, Louis ran towards the girl to end the fight. His feet moved so fast that he seemed to glide across the ground. The young man created several images of himself, confusing the warrior with his movement.
Faye then swung her spear in a wide arc to try to hit all the copies at once, but Louis dodged her attack with ease, creating more and more false images.
Cain, who was watching, was shocked, and wondered whether it was an optical illusion. He then said that the boy's movement was like a butterfly's, and was impressed. The redhead shouted in frustration, because even with him right in front of her, she could not hit him.
This was an elegant technique from a legendary boxer, called the butterfly step. With this light, hard to read rhythm of movement, Louis could dodge anything. The boy said that this technique was perfect for the situation, and got closer for the final attack.
With a precise punch, Louis hit the girl dead on and sent her flying with the blow. The impact of the punch was so strong that the warrior was thrown with impressive force.
Cain was completely speechless, and said it was unbelievable that he had defeated Faye. The director was also shocked by the result, and said that it had been quite unexpected. He commented that to beat Faye, even with her magic set aside, meant that this commoner might be a combat genius.
Louis stood victorious while the girl lay on the ground, defeated. But she got up and said that it was not over yet, introducing herself as Faye of the Duran family.
Louis just stared at his opponent with a calm expression, preparing to continue the fight. The young man thought that because she was from a great family, she could not lose so easily. The redhead advanced with a powerful kick, and a red aura enveloped her entire body. Louis realised that she had abandoned the spear and would use the martial arts based on it.
With a shout, the heiress charged at the boy to hit him once and for all. Louis took up a wing chun stance, preparing for the counterattack. With the pak sao technique, the young man prepared to deflect the girl's attack with his hands. The warrior then shouted the name of her attack, Crushing Fist, and advanced with a powerful punch.
The two clashed in a final confrontation, and a great wave of energy spread out. Louis felt the impact of the blow and compared it to the power of a one-inch punch. He complimented her technique, and the redhead said that her family was not just about battle spears. With that, the girl shouted the name of her attack and launched several energy fists at once.
Louis smiled and accepted the challenge, preparing to use his boxing martial arts. Then the two clashed once more. He thought that fighting a strong opponent was the dream he had always wanted.
A strange energy consumed him, and his heart began to pulse with a sinister red aura. With that, his eye glowed intensely, showing that he was losing control.
A demonic shadow appeared behind him as he shouted for them to enjoy the fight more. Seeing the sudden change, the red-haired warrior got scared and asked what was happening. The girl saw a huge demonic face in front of her, and felt intimidated. Frightened, the heiress realised that her body simply could not move at all.
Without mercy, the boy struck his opponent's face, throwing her with force, sending the girl flying far away.
