Chapter 43 The Strength Test
Sylvia's POV:
I punched with all my might. But I didn't expect that Blair could block it so easily. He was really strong.
"The momentum of your punch is not bad, but your strength is too scattered." Blair squeezed my fist and patted my arm. "Before your fist reaches the enemy, most of its strength has already been exhausted. And you still don't know how to attack the weak point."
"Then what should I do?" I asked, looking at him seriously.
He retracted his hand, touched his chin, and thought for a while. "Before you throw a punch, you have to calm down and hold your breath. This is very important. Don't let your strength dissipate too soon. What's more, observe the weak point of the target and focus on that point. Don't give the enemy any time to react. Always make quick moves.
Do it like this." Blair showed me the proper way to punch.
I tried hard to memorize all his moves, but I was still a little confused. When I wanted to ask him, the referee announced that the second round of the competition would begin.
"Let's go first. We'll talk about the details later," Blair said.
I nodded and moved to the competition area with the crowd.
There was a boulder on the high platform that Blair called the test rock.
I pursed my lips, feeling my heart sink to the bottom.
The first student went up. She was a tall she-wolf who stood in front of the boulder and hit it with all her strength. The boulder emitted a faint pink glow. Then the transparent screen next to it beeped twice, indicating that her score was qualified to the standard.
The result of the second participant was white light, and the score did not meet the requirement.
It seemed that anyone who could hit the pink light would pass the test.
I watched the methods and speed of the punches of those who passed. And I had a vague feeling that their punches were not even as powerful as the two punches Blair had just shown me casually.
Soon, Blair went up. He looked relaxed and wasn't as eager as the others. He just threw a light punch at the boulder, and it instantly emitted a dazzling red light that almost turned purple. He got a perfect score. NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.
Sure enough, his strength was not comparable to ordinary werewolves.
The audience exclaimed in awe, all admiring him. But I found that the dean had a strange expression on his face. It was as if he was not surprised at Blair's strength at all.
"Bitch, get out of my way! Don't block me from seeing a handsome guy,"
said a she-wolf behind me and shoved me frantically. She seemed a little nearsighted and tried hard to squeeze forward to see Blair clearly.
I turned sideways with an expressionless face to give my place to her. I found a corner and continued to watch the competition.
The rest of the students went up one after another, and many of them were excellent ones. There was even a werewolf named Toby, who scored a perfect score like Blair.
Finally, it was Cherry's turn to go up. She had coquettish red lips, wearing a sexy leopard print camisole and tight jeans. She walked gracefully in front of the boulder. When she passed by the center of the stand, she gently flipped her hair. Her position was exactly opposite Queen Laura and the other members of the royal family.
As expected, she always sent out the message of courting a mate. Many werewolves below couldn't control themselves any longer. They shouted, getting the hots for this sexy bombshell. With a bang, Cherry threw a punch. The boulder glowed pink. The werewolves applauded and cheered for her. "My goddess, you are awesome! You're great!"
I was rendered speechless, not understanding them. My feet were trampled on by several excited werewolves, and I felt a little tired in an instant. I changed my position again and tried to hide in the corner.
The next was the werewolf with pineappleshaped hair named Harry. He scored a nearly bright red light, but no one applauded for his excellent result. Obviously, the werewolves were still immersed in Cherry's beauty, while the she -wolves were secretly looking at Blair.
I was the last one. When the other students were all done, surprisingly I was not nervous anymore. Anyway, I had to do this, so I had to be calm.
But I didn't expect that when I was about to go up, the platform, where the boulder was fixed, suddenly collapsed. And the giant test rock fell and hit me.
