"Let's see who I have next." Brandyn thought to himself, checking his watch.
"Elias?!"
***
Several matches came and went. The weaker students were thrilled and entertained, while the stronger students deemed it a waste of their time.
"The next match is between the brazen Brandyn Santiago, and Elias Drake!"
The time had come for Brandyn to fight his last match. He had grown stronger, he knew this, but the power of Elias was unmatched. Even Clark Mateo, literally capable of flight and laser vision, wasn't enough to subdue him. There would be no chance of him winning but he told himself that he'd try his hardest. To try and show Elias that he wasn't just a sack to kick around anymore.
"Here I go!" Brandyn thought to himself, in the ring with his growing claws.
"Brandyn of the Unranked Santiago Dynasty! Just forfeit now before you die." Elias said, with his eyes glowing and slit.
"This egotistical moron! Urgh, he's right, though. There's no way I can win this fight." Brandyn said, facing the imposing figure ahead of him.
Elias' fists cloaked in their black, scorched scales and also became alight with his flame manipulation. His muscles slightly enlarged with the higher use of his ability and Brandyn's heart started to race in reaction.
"May the match begin!"
Elias charged right at Brandyn, who stood still in place. He didn't let himself succumb to the fear that was building inside him and exhaled calmly. He swiftly dropped as Elias came close to him and dug his claws into the sand below. In one swift swing, a cloud of sand was projected out towards Elias. His blazing irises became cluttered in these sharp, gravelly sand grains.
"Argh!" Elias exclaimed, holding his eyes in pain as the hot crystal-like specs of sand were wedged into his eyes.
As he did this, he made a swift retreat to try and gain some distance on his opponent. However, the gap between them began to close once Elias started to close such distance. His speed certainly surprised Brandyn and it didn't take long before they were within arm's reach of one another.
"Die!" Elias exclaimed, hurling forwards his left fist with a jab.
Elias managed to predict this attack and slip past it, dropping a significant amount just to try and evade the attack. Seeing Elias' abdomen open, he decided to take the shot and throw an attack. His attack was fast and it got close but before he could even react, Elias' rock-hard knuckles slammed into his face. The flames made this attack even more devastating, which made it leave a pronounced burn across his face.
"So powerful!" Brandyn thought, as blood shot out from his nose and mouth.
As Elias just stood ahead of him without making a single move, Brandyn looked past this bothersome pain and threw 2 straight punches for his head. Each attack was precise and landed exactly where he had intended them to. He even felt the power with each strike and knew that they were good hits. However, Elias just smiled maniacally and revealed his sharp, dragon-like fangs.
*BAM*
With the same fist as before, he landed a punch to Brandyn's gut to make him cough out a disgusting mix of blood and spit.
As Elias pulled back his fist, Brandyn could do nothing but cower away like a dying animal. His stomach felt like it was imploding. He began to uncontrollably cough and the weariness in him could be seen just by looking at his face.
"U-urgh.. I don't know if I can take another one of those. So this is the gap between the low-tier and the high-tier." Brandyn said to himself, as he gazed upon the imposing figure ahead of him.
"You really thought you could challenge me?! You, of the unranked Santiago? You stand absolutely no chance!" Elias declared, standing over the feeble Brandyn.
Elias charged towards Brandyn and swung out his fist for a right punch. The flames blazed as his fist shot through the air. Brandyn was far more skilled than any unexperienced fighter so he was able to use his block to take this attack head-on. Once it landed, the loud clapping noise was heard throughout the ring and Brandyn was jerked backwards from this explosive strike.
Elias was quick to move into his next attack, which was a left hook to the jaw. Seeing this repetitive combination of strikes occur, Brandyn swerved his body around anti-clockwise to launch his right fist forward with a punch to the head.
*POW*
The punch landed and allowed Brandyn to make his next movement without Elias being able to perceive it.
"Will I be able to land that attack? The only guy I've seen do it was the guy on Youtube. Well, I've only got one chance!" Brandyn thought, as he began his next attack
Brandyn switched his position to southpaw, following up with a strong jump into the air. As soon as he was airborne, he swivelled his entire body around until his right leg was coming over his body for a kick to the head. His shoe reached less than 20 centimetres from Elias' face before it was abruptly stopped.
Elias' eyes had opened wide and he grabbed onto this attack with the movement of his arms that looked like a blur to Brandyn.
"What?!"
With the roar of a dragon, he swerved his body around and ferociously slammed Brandyn's body into the ground.
"Oh! What a strike, ladies and gentlemen. It seems to be that Elias isn't trying to hold back, even on someone like Brandyn."
