“Can we skip straight to the finals?” Ambrose turned off the sink and turned to the announcer with a smile. “I want to fight Adam.”
“I-I’ll…” The announcer backed off with a trembling voice. “H-have to talk to Norman.”
At that moment, he backed off of someone and flinched. When he turned around, he saw Adam towering high above him. He couldn’t even see his eyes properly.
“L-Lord Adam…”
At that moment, Adam looked down enough for the announcer to see his face.
Adam’s face had an enormous grin, which made his face look hideously monstrous as the grin stretched all of his facial muscles, making his eyes appear even more unsettling.
“Go announce our fight.”
“B-b-but N-Norman…”
“Go!” Adam shouted. “I cannot wait any longer.”
“A-All right…” The announcer skipped away and quickly returned to the cage.
As he started announcing that the grand finals were actually starting already, Adam looked at Ambrose with a large grin.
“I was tired of fighting the fodder anymore.” Adam turned around and approached the cage with a face that made him look like he was on the verge of orgasm.
After it was announced that the grand finals were going to happen now between Adam and Ambrose, the crowd became so loud that the ceiling almost fell.
They didn’t know what happened, but they also didn’t care, as they wanted to see Adam fight, and Ambrose proved himself to be a skilled fighter.
In the office, Norman’s eyes shook.
“T-those fools ruined my tournament!” He slammed his fist on the window, but at that moment, he saw Adam’s large grin while standing in the cage.
‘H-he is grinning?’ Norman’s eyes shook as he knew that Adam only grinned when he was fighting a powerful opponent.
Otherwise, he would have a cool and almost bored expression.
This meant Adam acknowledged Ambrose as a powerful adversary!
“W-why?” Norman asked with a trembling voice. “Ambrose only barely defeated Nykholm. Nykholm could perhaps only survive a few punches from Adam, but that’s it.
“There shouldn’t be anyone even close to Adam’s level of power in this tournament.
“So why… why is he so excited?!”
As the announcer was about to introduce both fighters, Adam grabbed him by his collar and tossed him away like a filthy dog.
He couldn’t wait for another second.
“Argh…” As the announcer fell to the hard ground outside the cage, he shouted. “Fight start!”
The crowd immediately erupted in cheers.
Ambrose moved first, his feet sliding across the ground as if he were skating, and then launched a storm of jabs, each one packing a powerful punch.
Adam crossed his arms in front of his body and tanked the jabs, which were powerful enough to pummel Nykholm all the way to death.
However, Adam didn’t even flinch and continued blocking without any trouble.
After seeing that his jabbing didn’t do anything, Ambrose slid past Adam and attacked the back of his head.
Adam put his arm in the way and blocked the punch, but Ambrose quickly followed up with another attack. This time, he threw a kick that neared Adam’s abdomen.
At the last moment, Adam grabbed the leg and flipped Ambrose over, sending him crashing to the ground.
However, when Ambrose was about to hit the ground, he seamlessly put his hands on the ground and flipped himself over, landing neatly on the ground without any harm.
“Not bad.” Adam grinned. “Not bad at all.”
At that moment, Adam took the initiative and threw a straight punch.
Ambrose moved like a fish in the water and neatly dodged the punch.
Immediately afterward, Adam followed up with a low kick that would be strong enough to split the tree in half.
Ambrose quickly jumped over the leg and grabbed Adam’s shoulders before flipping over him.
He then wrapped his arm around Adam’s neck and shouted. “Heaven Drop!”
Adam’s feet left the ground, and he saw the world turn upside down before he crashed down on the ground with a loud thud.
Gasp—the crowd gasped and turned eerily silent. They had never seen Adam in trouble in any of his fights and thought that the fight would be quickly over, but at least they were able to see him fight.
However, something unbelievable was happening in front of their eyes.
“Whoo…” Ambrose let out a long breath and said, “Stand up, Adam. I know this is nothing yet.”
“Hah.” Adam chuckled as he laid on the ground on his stomach. He then slowly stood up and patted off the dust from his shorts.
‘Are you close?’ Ambrose asked the soul that slumbered deep inside his body.
‘Yes, but this is still not enough.’
Ambrose lowered his stance and went into his usual grappling stance. Last time he used this, he almost choked Nykholm out cold.
“Ahh, this. Interesting.” Adam’s eyes shone in excitement.
“Argh!” Ambrose slid forward and neared Adam’s legs.
At that moment, Adam grabbed Ambrose’s shoulders, stopping him from reaching his legs, and then kneed him in the face.
“Ptui!” Ambrose coughed blood and stumbled backward.
Adam smashed his fist deep into Ambrose’s waist, where his liver was located, and caused him to let out an empty cough as all his air left his lung.
Ambrose flew across the cage and crashed into the metal cage wall.
Ambrose fell limply down to the ground and held his stomach as he felt like all the air was punched out of his lungs.
However, after a few breaths, his breathing eased up.
‘I… suppose, it was little bit too obvious of an attack.’ He stood back up and looked at Adam with a serious glare.
He still didn’t feel like Adam was going all out, but only replicated his power level.
‘I am very close!’ The soul shouted. ‘Final push. Fight with all you got!’
‘No need to tell me twice.’ Ambrose took a deep breath and after calming down his thoughts, he slammed his eyes open and dashed forward.
Adam smirked and put his arms up as a block. He anticipated that Ambrose would use hit-and-run tactics, as they had worked with him before.
However, this time, Ambrose had a different plan in mind.
He reeled in his fist and punched towards Adam’s block.
‘As expected.’ Adam suddenly removed his block and shot his hand forward in attempt to catch Ambrose’s wrist.
But then, Ambrose’s punch stopped and he suddenly leaned forward as if he were falling to the ground, but then, his legs muscles bulged and he kicked himself forward, launching himself towards Adam’s legs!
‘He again went for my legs!’ Adam’s eyes shrank as he realized he was too late to stop it.
Ambrose wrapped his arms around Adam’s legs, lifted him off the ground and with a loud scream, slammed him to the ground with enough strength to make the ground shake.
“Argh…” Adam let out a groan of slight pain as the wind was knocked out of his lungs.
Ambrose immediately mounted him and started throwing dozens of punches at his face and body.
Adam quickly protected his head, but his body was getting hit, especially his ribs, and even he couldn’t take so much punishment without feeling some pain.
“Hahaha…” Adam laughed with a large grin, as if he were having the time of his life.
‘Now, how did he shake off Ravenhood. Lift the hips right?’ Adam smirked and then thrust his hips to the air, as if he were trying to mimic Ambrose’s movements.
Ambrose’s eyes shook as he stumbled forward, and was about to fall off, but then, his eyes narrowed and then, he moved behind Adam’s back like a slippery snake and wrapped his arms around his neck.
He squeezed tight, instantly stopping Adam from breathing.
