Teacher Loran continued the lesson and called for the next people to start fighting. He let Sarah and Shang do whatever they wanted. Sarah had said that she learned a lot from Shang, which meant that Shang was an appropriate sparring partner for her.

Under normal circumstances, Shang should lose to someone of Sarah's level. However, Shang's experience in fighting barehanded made him the perfect counter to Sarah.

One had to remember that something like this wasn't normal. Basically, all warriors focused on their weapons, and they definitely didn't have much experience in serious hand-to-hand combat.

Yes, the students often beat each other up in a fistfight, but that was it.

It was a fistfight.

They punched and kicked each other, but they generally didn't grapple. They were so used to fighting with their weapons that they used their fists and legs as weapons. That meant striking the enemy with them.

If someone else had managed to get behind Sarah, they would have most likely unleashed a fist strike or a kick. Sarah would have been injured and thrown away, but she would have had a chance to turn things around.

And even if they tried to grapple Sarah from the back, there would have been a high likelihood that Sarah would have somehow managed to either smash their face in with the back of her head or managed to wriggle out of it.

However, Shang had been an MMA fighter on Earth. He knew exactly how he had to grab her. By putting his legs around her torso, shaking him off would have proven basically impossible. Her arms also wouldn't have been able to deal much damage, and her hammer could have only been swung in a very awkward manner.

The way Shang fought with his bare hands was very strange for this world. It was basically completely unknown.

In a way, one could say that Shang fought like a beast without his weapon. Beasts also often used their claws to grab an opponent and then use their teeth to kill them. When a beast wanted to kill someone, it didn't just swipe forward with its claws. No, swiping with their claws was mostly a defensive maneuver.

When a beast wanted to genuinely kill someone, it dug its claws into the opponent to keep them close and to position them perfectly for the finishing bite. Being caught by the claws was a death sentence most of the time, but not always. With enough experience, one could potentially turn things around.

Sarah and Shang began talking after teacher Loran turned his focus to the remaining class.

Sarah told Shang that she was interested in learning how to fight against beasts and unarmed opponents, which was why she asked him to fight without a weapon.

However, she also knew that Shang would basically not learn much, which would make this lesson an affair with only one beneficiary.

"In exchange, you can ask me whatever you want. I know a lot about politics, materials, resources in general, and weapons," she offered.
