7. SPARRING MATCH
Luke was on his way to meet his warrior training instructor, last night he decided his warrior skill with his instructor or any sparring persons available
He met his instructor and greeted him. He requested for a sparring match for him to test out his strength and skills with any available student.
Hearing this instructor looked at Luke, Luke was a wheatish coloured kid with black hair , his eyes perfectly round shaped with a green bluish iris, when one looks into it can feel as if their soul is scoured &well built and with an athletic body well toned with strong arms and well shaped biceps and at a height 1.4m for a 10 year old kid looked more of well grown adult body. His body showed his centre of gravity was always well balanced.
Pondering for a while the instructor called a kid named Bairon who was well built dark boy with black hair and muscles well toned and his body showing his warrior pride, he was also a noble’s son belonging to Frazer Clan, a clan proud of warriors.
Luke POV
I was mediating yesterday night trying to feel for Ki or Mana as usual I coudnt. Well I shouldn’t give up as long as I can, I should persist with it. Getting up from the stance, I used minimum force but I just sprang up so fast.
Would it be I would have reached the peak Earth level warrior. Hmmmm…..thinking for while , I decided that I should have a spar tomorrow at the warrior training place.
I asked the instructor for a sparring match. He looked me with eyes of disbelief as he knew I cant use neither Ki or Mana. He thought for a while and called Bairon
Bairon son of lord Frazer (clan of warriors), he usually used to throw insults at me for my inability to use to Ki or Mana. He didn’t attack me physically because he would be punished by the instructor. In the training Instructor word is everything
I step up on the sparring floor as well as Bairon steps us and keeps grinning with a smile at me. I wait for the instructor to start the proceedings
The instructor tells him the rules of the Spar no killing blows and no injury to vita areas and if kicked out or pushed out of the stage means loss. If the opponent is unable or fainted in the stage means loss.
The students were surrounding the stage and were cheering for Bairon to win as they know Luke is useless.
Bairon POV
I was suddenly called upon by the instructor and heard I was going to spar. I was thinking who I was going to spar with. I found the perfect prey for it
It was none other than Luke,the son of Lord Pluto, great battle mage. He had developed an enmity due to his father’s enmity with Pluto. (As the saying “Like Father Like Son”)
He was already jealous of Luke’s elder brother who has been touted genius and several times he has been handed harsh scolding by his father for not scoring any achievements. All his frustration can be vented today he thought
I was grinning with a smile looking at him waiting for the instructor to announce the start of the sparring.
Luke POV
As the instructor shouted to start, I steadied myself and looking at the opponent he hadn’t moved he was looking at me deeply analyzing myself and waiting for me to make a move.
Finally he made a move, he quickly moved towards me with nice and steady foot work, he quickly threw a fist towards by gut. I saw what he was planning to do and side stepped and creating an opening to attack, I threw my fist towards his side but was countered by his right leg as he raised it in the air.
We both retreated backwards and were analyzing each other again trying to predict what next each other will do. Bairon was first startled in his heart but then recovered as he was peak level Earth warrior who has undergone strict training.

Catching a breath, I relaxed my muscles and focus on Bairon. I see him starring at me and then he has a smug look and starts to release his ki. I feel a sort of vibration that’s all I feel due to by inability to channel Ki or Mana never can I sense. I frown but I quickly get into position waiting for his attack
This time he uses his Ki and dashes at me, have to say that he is faster than before but still I coud clearly see his movements. I quickly retreat few steps backward and he throws a fast fist and I slash downwards my hand as a chop and divert it downward and trying to pulling him towards me to do a leg sweep
Bairon senses it he is in trouble and quickly pushes his Ki towards his leg and retreats back. He is pissed off and is now raging.
Luke thinks of attacking him but realizes he doesn’t know how strong his attacks would be. So he tries to defensive and strike at any opportunity a counter style.
The crowd cheers wildly, At start they were cheering for Bairon seeing Luke’s display some part of the crowd cheer for Luke
BAIRON POV
Bairon has been raging inside thinking how on earth he is able to react even when he is even using is Ki force
I understand that Luke is not attacking because unsure about his attack strength so himself has to attack him
I now decides to use a feint move. I quickly dashes towards Luke and strike him with my Ki forced fist towards his side, he side steps and suddenly I stop my arm and grab him with another arm by turning my body trying to throw him off.
Luke POV
I nearly fell for his feint whew….this Bairon is really mean. I know all is fair in Love and War. He tries to throw me off by grappling me. I hold his free left hand with my left hand and neutralize this move.
Bairon lets my arm go and at the same time I let his left arm go. Suddenly he throws a palm towards my gut and I too move my right palm to meet it.
Wow I feel as if my blood reversed flow a bit and vibrations throughout my body, but it doesn’t affect me much. I steady myself a bit. But I feel as though my strength is sapped out slowly
Bairon POV
WTF is that. I striked him with my complete Ki condensed at one point but we striked out each other and he s fine
If my father learns about such a shame then I am done for it. I was fuming so much that I cook hot water by keeping pot of water near me.
I readied for my Final attack I concentrate all my Ki towards my right arm. I don’t care whether I kill him or not. I will win this match
Finally both Luke & Bairon ready themselves for a final attack. Luke without Ki or Mana relaxes his muscles and concentrates his strength to his right elbow. Bairon has also readied himself for the final attack
The crowd waits silently for the finale of the battle there is not a sound in the crowd
Luke decides to go all out as it is all or nothing for him. The Instructor sees both individual getting ready for their final attack and he feels the end of the match is near
Luke stomps his feet to the ground and propels forward and Bairon uses his powerful leg to move
forwards, bairon throws his fist and Luke throws is elbow and meets his fist.
As both forces collide there is sudden buzzing sound as the force generated causes the sound of Ki colliding with natural force. The force causes Luke to be thrown off the stage and he falls down with small stream of blood coming out of his mouth.
Bairon flipped 3 times and thrown out of the stage and falls to the ground. He is knocked out cold. The instructor is dumbfounded and announces the match as draw as both of them are out of the stage.
The entire student crowd is dumbstruck and are in awe of a such a great spar between their fellow members
