Hever's muscle memory flashed as he just barely managed to reach Rui's attack in time.

WHOOSH

It was a feint.

Where did he go?

THUD

Rui had crashed into his lower abdomen before Hever could even realize! The force of the takedown had toppled Hever onto the ground flat. Hever wrangled like a serpent, but to no avail.

CLASP

Rui used Shifting Silhouette, his only grappling defense technique to suppress all of Hever's grappling activity, and successfully mounted Hever.

BAM BAM BAM!

Rui mercilessly pounded on Hever like a gorilla, using the full power of Outer Convergence and Vital Pressure.

Hever had begun bleeding immensely. He did not have any defensive techniques like Inner Divergence, even if he did, they would not work very well, if at all in such a scenario. Inner Divergence required the user shifting the area of impact as close to the center of the body as possible, whereas Rui had mounted him, preventing such a defense.

Ultimately, the human body would not withstand the power of a Martial Apprentice. Rui even ended up holding back a bit, avoiding his head. One wrong mistake and Rui might have ended up even killing him.

Soon, Hever's condition had degraded immensely, but he never gave up. Rui couldn't really knock him out via blunt force trauma because his head would not rock because of the ground.
