Dalen threw a flurry of jabs at Milliana, which she simply blocked by putting together guard.

She dodged an incoming kick, before once again blocking a few more jabs.

She didn't attack much, a decision Rui approved.

Dalen's defensive prowess was in the top three within the Academy.

With a six-foot tall gargantuan frame, with heavy bones and muscles, along with eight defense-oriented techniques, he was a sheer tank. Hurting him was an incredibly difficult task. As far as purely the ability to withstand offense went, only Fae and maybe a few others could inflict meaningful damage on him head-on via ordinary attacks.

Someone like Milliana whose offensive measures weren't particularly impressive, would not be able to inflict so much as a scratch on him unless she somehow managed to land her strongest attack on his eyes or another spot that was equally vulnerable.

She had a much higher chance of winning if she simply chose to wait for him to burn himself out.

What Rui found interesting was the manner in which she handled his attacks. Each defense she chose was the most apt as far as efficiency went.

She blocked quick swift jabs because their speed and number made them harder to dodge, she would need to expend more energy. Furthermore, jabs lacked power in exchange for their swiftness.

She dodged more powerful strikes like kicks and heavy swings. These usually required a higher timeframe to land compared to speedy jabs.
