Although Leslie surpassed his expectations, Richard was more eager to see the next match mainly because Yvonne was participating.
Boris also focused his attention on the match.
"The last ti, Aisha didn't have to put too much effort to defeat Leslie, but I also didn't see her using any fighting style, she just took advantage of her superior speed, let's see how things go".
Unlike the last ti where magic wasn't allowed, if there is sothing Yvonne learned from her little fight against Daimon, is to always expect sothing unrealistic from him and the sa probably applied to Aisha.
Contrary to what Aisha expected, the Yvonne of right now was more aggressive than her usual self, as soon as she revealed an opening, she saw Yvonne coming at her with a fierce kick, but it wasn't hard for to dodge it by moving her body sidewards a bit.
Boom!!
When Yvonne landed, the ground shook a bit from her attack,
Aisha frowned her brows.
"Yvi, are you perhaps a knight feigning to be a mage or sothing like that?", she asked.
She wasn't the only one surprised, although the strength of her kick wasn't enough to crack the platform, it was still sothing which no one would from a mage and a girl which didn't look too keen on exercising.
Richard laughed out loud, "That little girl has been reserving this surprise for soone worthy, it seems she has chosen her rival hahaha".
Boris sighed, "Instructor… what the hell did you teach Yvonne?".
Richard smirked, "Well, I taught her a little trick so that she could increase her physical strength without gaining muscle volu, that being said it hasn't been too much ti since she learned this, because Irina prohibited to train her like that until she was twelve years old"
Returning to the fight, as soon as Yvonne touched the ground she jumped towards Aisha again, and again, each ti she increased her pace, faster and faster with each try.
However, no matter how fast she was, Aisha was always just a fraction of a second faster than her.
"Yvi, you are going to have a tough ti if you want to overwhelm a lightning mage in reaction ti", thought Aisha as she avoided a sudden jab from Yvonne.
Yvonne's mind was working as fast as she could, if the fight dragged on, she was going to lose for sure.
"I already supposed it, since Daimon used a movent spell in our fight, but to think she can get this much advantage just by re foot work without a self-strengthening spell… when it costed two years to reach this level".
She steeled her resolution and then increased her speed again; she stepped on the ground and then propelled her body towards her enemy.
Aisha used her forearm to block Yvonne's punch, a dull sound echoed through the platform, but that was not all, since her first attack didn't work, Yvonne spun her body and then threw a heavy kick which Aisha managed to block with her shin.
*Tap*
*Tap*
They both jumped backwards to distance from each other.
Aisha felt a little cramp in the leg she used to block that last attack, although she has also trained her body her focus was offensive not defense and she hasn't light hup her life spark unlike her son.
That being said, she has only been defending this whole ti, but Yvonne was actually quite skilled in hand-to-hand combat, so she decided to fight seriously.
"Yvi, don't lower your guard", said Aisha a she stretched her arms a couple of tis.
This ti Aisha rushed towards Yvonne, her attack was so fast that Yvonne could barely use her elbow to block a punch and even then, she was pushed back by it.
"Ouch", Yvonne moved her arm a bit, that attack made her whole forearm get numb by the impact, on top of that her breathing was starting to be heavier than before.
They exchanged movents for nearly ten minutes, it was quite remarkable from Yvonne that she managed to redirect most of the impacts caused by Aisha's attacks, but in exchange her left arm and right leg were sore right now.
*Thud*, with one last attack Aisha made Yvonne lose her balance, but before she landed on the ground, Aisha helped her stand up.
Yvonne rose her hands.
"I give up, I firmly believe I can fight head on against a two-star knight for at least one hour… and yet I didn't last 30 minutes against you".
Richard nodded, although his granddaughter lost, she fought with everything she had, besides it was easy to notice Aisha has also trained before, so it wasn't a sha to lose against her.
Unlike Leslie and Liliana, their match was fiercer so their uniforms were a bit dirty due to all the tis they exchanged kicks, they left the platform and just sat down to relax and adjust their breathing.
Now it was ti for the last match, Calvin looked at Daimon and he imdiately used the original spell created by his grandfather "Gaia's armor", so of the materials of the platform separated from it and then covered his arms, legs and chest.
The current Calvin was quite different than normal, on a rare occasion his expression was quite serious.
"Daimon… I'm not focused in strength but defense and this armor amplifies that, honestly, I don't believe I can defeat you but out of respect for the old man and this spell which he taught , I will still give it my all so please don't restrain yourself".
Daimon smirked, in terms of body cultivation he has beco the five-star ranked knight, although his physical strength was way beyond that, he decided to limit himself to that level.
They stared at each other for a couple of seconds, before they both threw a punch.
*Crack*, once their fists connected, the sound of two solid things colliding made its way into everyone's ears, followed by the sound of rocks breaking.
Calvin looked at the armor which covered his hands, he reinforced it previously but the result was still the sa… the armor cracked after just one hit.
The main disadvantage of using this armor was that his speed was reduced, sothing that was solved after mastering the spell, but for now Calvin was burning big amounts of mana to maintain the armor attached to his body.
Richard stood from his seat, there was still a few things he wanted to see, the reason as to why he chose Calvin to be Daimon's sparring partner instead of Aisha, was because he wanted to see how strong was Daimon and judging by the previous exchange, he was at least similar as a sixth star knight.
"You two can finish it early, but I want you to see the clash between what's recognized one of the strongest defenses, against an abnormal variant like Daimon".
Calvin smiled, a sudden wave of mana covered his body and the armor changed, before it was just a thin layer of rock covering his body, but now more of the material used for the platform was absorbed by the armor.
Daimon looked at the result, now Calvin's hands were covered un what looked like box gloves, but made out of rock.
"Class rep, let's finish this already so I can go flirt with Loren", he said out loud making Loren feel a bit shy.
With a little exploding sound Daimon disappeared from where he was standing and their fists collided, pieces of rock were shot due to the impact, but Calvin simply used more mana and the armor repaired itself.
p
Daimon sighed, he could reduce the strength of his attacks but his body was still abnormal, so when Calvin hit him, it obviously didn't affect him at all.
"What the hell is your body made of class rep… I was the one attacking and if it wasn't for my good constitution, I could have broken my leg".
From the spectators, Michael saw the huge difference between Daimon and Calvin and he felt a bit complex, he was enjoying the show of Calvin being a punching bag, but on the other hand, he also wanted to asure himself against the one considered the strongest among the first years.
The fight ended when Calvin suddenly collapsed, the armor crumbled and he fell to the ground while gasping for air, at first everyone thought he was just joking around, but his breathing was a ss and he sweating a lot.
Richard went up the platform but contrary to what one expected he literally kicked Calvin out of the platform.
"You can't trick twice Calvin… everyone but Daimon go take a shower".
Aisha didn't care about whatever Richard had to say, she was all sticky due to the sweat so she needed to refresh herself.
Once only the guys were left, Richard extended his hand towards Daimon and spoke.
"Hit my hand as hard as you can, I need to know to develop the tactics for the team".
Daimon nodded, he took a few steps to distance himself from Richard and with a swift movent, his fist clashed against Richard's hand.
*Clang*, Richard frowned his brows, the impact was way harder than what he expected.
"Kid what kind of training did you do?", he mumbled.
