The Martial Unity

"Moving onto our next battle! On one hand we have Representative Byron Harth and his Gentle Sting Style representing the Brillix branch. And on the other hand, we have Kaerts Omegde and his Soul Reader Style! Let's welcome them with a round of applause."

The two men entered the arena, earning an eruption of cheers from the audience.

Rui raised an eyebrow at their heavy presence.

They were strong.

"Take your stances." The referee instructed.

Byron Harth extended his left leg forward as he crouched his right leg. His arms positioned themselves in front of him, with all fingers except the index and middle fingers bent.

Rui recalled that Fae and Kane had told him that Byron's Martial Path and Martial Art were centered around nerve targeting.

The nervous system of the human body was responsible for the functioning of the human body in many ways, Rui wasn't even sure what Byron was capable of. He intended to pay close attention to his combat style and make a profile centered around him as well.

As for Kaerts, he wasn't sure what to make of that strange name. Neither of his friends knew much about him either. They only knew that he was the son of a Martial Master.

He simply took a simple neutral stance, making him all the more mysterious in Rui's eyes.

"Begin!" The referee commenced the match.

Byron immediately dashed towards Kaerts, launching several finger poking attacks.

WHOOSH

Kaerts evaded the attack incredibly cleanly, he moved almost the very bare minimum needed to avoid the attack. What struck Rui as interesting was that he didn't strike Rui as an evasive type, yet he possessed high evasive capabilities.

Perhaps this had something to do with his Martial Art.
