632 Chapter 631
Everyone at the scene found it difficult to watch.
The weight of Kingâs fist was well known to all; it was said to have the power to split a sandbag with a single punch.
If it landed on a personâs head, such a fist would surely burst the head open⊠Brain matter would come spouting out.
Everyone covered their eyes.
Even Brian closed his eyes, with tears leaking from the corners. Clenching his fists tightly, he heard the sound of that forceful punch hitting flesh!
âBang!!â
That absolute power made Brian realize that his son couldnât possibly survive it; even if that punch wasnât to Lukeâs head, a blow to the abdomen would cause his internal organs to rupture and lead to his death!
His heart felt like it was being violently grasped, causing Brian so much pain that he momentarily couldnât breathe.
Luke was his only son!
His father died for the Special Division.
He could die for the Special Division, too.
So could his son!
But still, he felt the pain and despair. Tears welled up in Brianâs eyesâŠ
For a moment, he regretted his decisionâŠ
Regretted letting his son join the Special DivisionâŠ
But he knew he shouldnât regret it!
As Brian was drowned in despair, he suddenly heard a faint voice. âWhat are you doing?â
That voice⊠Was it Luke?
He wasnât dead?
Brian abruptly opened his eyes and saw a slender figure standing before Luke on the stage, currently stretching out a hand, grasping Kingâs fist.
The woman stood tall, her hands delicate like tender green shoots, blocking Kingâs fist perfectly.
King was an African American, and his giant fists and dark skin starkly contrasted Keiraâs pale hands, creating a stunning visual impact.
King stood in front of Keira, a full head taller than her, and appeared twice as wide and several times heavier, like the difference between an adult and a child.
Keira easily blocked the punch and looked down at Luke.
Luke was frowning at her. âStep down! This is my battlefield! We canât lose!â
Keira raised an eyebrow. âYou step down. Iâll take over.â
Luke glared at her. âHow could you? Youâve just joined the Inner Sect of the Freeman Sect. What do you know about martial arts? YouâŠâ
The rest of his words stopped abruptly.
Because Keira didnât waste words with him, and with a casual wave of her hand, King was forced to stagger backward and could barely keep his balance!
Luke was stunned. âYou, youâŠâ
Keira moved her neck around, warming up her shoulders and wrists. âHello, I am Keera Olsen from the Freeman Sect.â
Luke was dumbstruck.
Everyone below was also stunned.
Even Holly stepped forward anxiously. âKeira, what are you doing? Come down from thereâŠâ
The next moment, they heard James laugh proudly. âAllow me to introduce her. This is the senior sister of the Freeman Sect and my little sister, Keera Olsen!â
After saying that, he looked at Luke. âAlright, hurry up and give in. Donât embarrass yourself up there!â
Although his words conveyed disdain, he had already approached Luke and helped him to get up.
Luke was still in disbelief and looked at Keira. He didnât speak and was pulled out of the competition area by James, effectively conceding defeat.
Staggering and weak, he stood before Brian. âDad, Iâve disgraced you.â
Brian clenched his fists, his eyes red with emotion, and his voice choked up. âIâm proud of you!â
Lukeâs eyes lit up, and father and son supported each other, looking back toward the stage. After experiencing loss and a brush with death, their eyes were unconsciously filled with a touch of admiration and sincerity when they looked at Keira.
Keira wasnât looking at the crowd below, nor was she aware that she had unintentionally won over Brian and Luke. She just stared at King.
King was shocked as he looked at her. âYouâre very strong.â
Keira said, âThanks.â
The head of Interpol was baffled, scanning Keira from head to toe in confusion. âYouâre the senior sister of the Freeman Sect?â
Keira looked at him coldly. âIs there a problem with that?â
Sweat instantly poured down his forehead. âNo, thatâs not what I meantâŠâ
Keira didnât waste any more words but turned to King. âIf I beat you, Vera South can stay, right?â
King nodded.
The next second, Keira moved like a darting rabbit, rushing up to him.
Keira was petite, and she could have chosen the same combat path as James.
She could have used her agile movements to play around with King, tiring him out with gasping breaths, then find an opportunity to win the match.
But Keira didnât do that.
King respected every competitor from the Special DivisionâŠ
The repeated restraint he had shown toward Luke was evidence of that, so Keira gave this opponent the respect he deserved!
She struck with her strength!!
King was stunned. âMiss Olsen, youâre too arrogant.â
He threw a punch. He hadnât used his full strength on the punch against Luke, and that was why Keira managed to push him back. This time, he used all his strength!
Keiraâs slight frame couldnât possibly be a match for him!
But what he didnât expect wasâŠ
âBang!!â
When their fists met, he felt that that tiny fist was as immovable as a hill. He tried with all his might to overcome her, but even with all his strength, he couldnât make the girl retreat a single step!
Although Keira appeared frail, she was incredibly durable. With a background of enduring hardship from a young age, she also possessed considerable strength. Otherwise, how could she have caught the eye of the Freeman Sectâs Leader just with her flexibility?
Seeing that King was hesitating, Keira smiled. She extended her other hand and waved it through the air a few times before slapping it onto her own fist!
With a âbang,â King was pushed back by Keira, his feet scraping forcefully on the ground as he took several steps backward before he could steady himself, stopping just in time.
Kingâs eyes widened in disbelief as he looked at Keira. âImpressive! Iâd like to challenge you again.â
Yet Keira put away her fists and said calmly, âYou lost.â
Surprised, King looked down to realize he had been pushed out of the competition ring without knowing it.
He was dazed for a moment, then gave Keira a fist salute before stepping down from the stage.
Only then did Keira turn to the head of Interpol. âArenât you leaving?â
The man gritted his teeth.
Keira, on the other hand, turned and walked toward the cell where Vera was kept. She was going to talk with the prisoner again.
