You can choose not to participate in the training
Serena walked towards him and whispered to Garen.

It’s fine. I’m bored anyway.
Garen smiled and replied.
As a club member who was one of the few which were good looking, Garen’s main purpose was to be a showcase. However, since there was not much news regarding the Black Wood Cross recently, Garen decided to play along since he was bored.
After taking some time to understand the situation, he was still interested in the combat club. There were a few professionals in the club but they were only considered professionals as a commoner. If they were to encounter the lowest class vampire, they could only die and this wouldn’t affect Garen’s emotions.
The combat club had a lot of special rights in the university as they had obtained a lot of rewards before. A lot of elites could officially skip class during the competition period, even if the class was a core subject. This was what Garen was most interested in.
The new members were then separated into two groups and a senior pulled the new members who had no experience to a corner to teach them the basics.
Another senior pulled Garen and the others to the other side, preparing to test their skills.
Serena was chatting with a few of the members before walking towards him. There was a tall and strong man following beside her. He had a small mustache and was in a black singlet and a camouflage pants.

We have Xander last year who was at a level to be able to participate in the competition. I wonder how this year’s members will be.
The man looked at seven of the new members.

I’ve already informed Bidaen to go soft against Garen. The club is seriously imbalanced between the guy and the girls and we need him to lure in more female students. We can’t scare him off.
Serena said softly.

Are you implying that I’m not handsome?
The muscular man complained.

Pfft.

As both of them were speaking, the trial had started.
Among them, the elegant ponytail girl and golden-haired Garen had the most attention.
As both of them were very attractive, this had caused a lot of attention to be focused on them.
As the trial coach, Bidaen allowed the guy with an unsatisfied expression to come out first.
Both of them stood against each other and the trial began.
He rushed towards Bidaen and avoided a punch from the opponent. He then collapsed onto his pelvic area.

Not bad. Next.

Although Bidaen was smiling, he was shaking his head on the inside. Those who followed fully to the rules could only be considered as a beginner with some foundation.
The man got down of the stage and in exchange, a girl went up. Her waist was lean and muscled.
Both parties announced their name and the battle began.
The girl took a step forward and tried to grab hold of Bidaen with both of her hands.
Unfortunately, it was a failure as he evaded it. However, she was able to hold off Bidaen’s attack.

This one’s good. She has a good foundation.
Serena, who was watching the spar, nodded.

She can become the reserve of the elite members.
The muscular man nodded.
Bidaen and the fit girl fought for some time and the girl eventually fell to the ground. She didn’t seem disappointed, and in fact looked rather excited. She panted as she muttered something about finally finding the group for her and went down the stage.
The next person was the other guy. Bidaen had purposely placed Garen and the elegant girl at the back. This was especially true for Garen as he felt like not hitting him as he had such fair and tender skin. How much effort would one require to take care of his skin to such a level?
The remaining few were weak and couldn’t even last a hit. They were just enthusiasts with a little bit of foundation. In terms of fighting experience, they seemed to have none.
Finally, it was Garen’s turn.
He walked forward.

Garen Thomas, please to meet you.


Go ahead and fight me.

Bidaen nodded.

I may be stronger than the few before me, so be careful.
Garen smiled as he warned him.

Oh?
Bidaen carefully looked at Garen’s gaze and noticed that he wasn’t joking at all. He then started to feel wary.
As Garen noticed the opponent’s gaze, he walked towards the opponent and stood about 3 meters away from him.

Be careful.

As he finished his sentence, Garen moved and instantly appeared behind the opponent. His hands were as agile as feathers as he gently moved them across Bidaen’s shoulders.
Slam.
Bidaen flipped and rolled a few rounds to the front as he fell. He had completely lost control of his balance and he was in shock as he looked at Garen behind him.
It wasn’t just him, the new members nearby, together with Serena and the muscular man who were observing at the side were stunned.
Serena, who had been about to place the lollipop into her mouth and the man who was just about to scratch his hand stopped moving and didn’t know how to react to this.
All the new members were stunned as they didn’t know how to react to such situations.
This corner of the room was in complete silence as no one spoke.
After a while.

Fuck me! …. You’re a professional!!
Bidaen muttered.

It’s alright.
Garen shrugged.

What kind of footwork was that? How did it make me so confused?
Bidaen recovered quickly from his shock and what replaced it was a sense of excitement. He was a combat enthusiast who knew a lot and was obviously interested in the footwork that he had never seen before.

It was a simple footwork where one moves in the blindspot of the opponent. Add in some unique technique and anyone can achieve the effect of disrupting the opponent’s vision.
Garen wasn’t joking as it was really a very common technique. In the Secret Technique world, even normal martial artists were able to use it proficiently.
It was one of the popular techniques.
This technique could only be used to toy with commoners as typical martial artists had strong senses. Once their vision was compromised, they could immediately switch into hearing and the technique was useless against them.
Garen took into consideration that he would be facing against a commoner so he took out the most common technique in his memory.
However, it seemed to be too advanced for this world…

It has a very interesting name, called Two-phase extermination,
Garen explained.
Combined it with the footwork, one could gently gross over the opponent’s neck.

The Two-phase Extermination was a set of martial art that wasn’t popular. As it’s practically not strong. This was the reason Garen chose this technique to engage with a commoner in this world for the very first time. However, based on the people’s reactions, Garen knew that this was too advanced.

Two-phase Extermination…
Bidaen was excited. It wasn’t just him as everyone started to feel an itch in their heart.
Garen’s simple motion which involved a few steps and a gentle throw. The posture was very elegant and beautiful.
No one thought that combat would portray such a beautiful posture and so practical at the same time. It’s as if this had opened a new world to them.

Let me try!
The impatient strong man at one side couldn’t resist any longer as he walked to the stage.
Bidaen, you take some rest and let me try it!


Be careful vice president, even I don’t know how I was tricked.
Bidaen nodded as he warned softly while walking to the side.
The muscular man smiled as he raised his hands and stretched his shoulder. He then moved to the left and right as he warmed himself up.

My foundation is boxing. Be careful.
He shouted at Garen.
The disturbance raised by the vice president had attracted the attention of the senior members nearby and even the coach from the other side started to gather around.
Even the new members from the other side stopped their training and joined the crowd.
Serena walked behind Garen and said.

Be careful, that guy is called Jamie. He’s one of the captains of the five elite groups. Excluding the president, the five of them are the strongest. Since my sister is competing for the president slot, she has to fight against them as well.

Garen nodded to acknowledge that he heard it.

Jamie is good at uppercut and the ambushed knee attack. His knee attack is nicknamed as army’s pierce. It’s very powerful so don’t assume that he would only use his hand as a fighter.


Hey hey hey. Don’t sell out your old friend just because he’s handsome~~~
Jamie started complaining.

As for me, I don’t have any special technique.
Garen nodded as he started to introduce himself.

Let’s begin.
Serena became their impromptu judge.
The surrounding started to quiet down. Since the vice president and the elite group captain had decided to spar with a new member, it obviously meant that the new member was very capable and this attracted a huge amount of people to spectate.
Two of them stood facing each other on the stage.

Since you’re a professional as well, I won’t be showing any mercy,
Jamie said calmly.

Sure thing.
Garen nodded.
Just as he finished his sentence, Jamie plunged forward and attacked Garen from the right.
He got to Garen, who was three meters away from him in a mere instant and attacked him from his right, aiming for his neck. The fist in the air was whistling, just like a drill rotating at high speed.
He had used half of his normal strength in this attack. Under normal circumstances, this fist could easily punch through three to four bricks. If it were to used it on a normal person, his bones would break without a doubt. Hence, he preserved his strength as he was just testing his opponent in case that he had overestimated his opponent. It would be bad for him to severely injured someone.
Out of habit, he attacked his opponent from the side by taking advantage of his incredible speed to attack a person’s weak spot. This was Jamie’s fighting style. As for the poisonous pierce, which was his hidden ultimate move, he couldn’t simply use it at his disposal as it would bring a heavy burden towards his knee.
The fist was going towards Garen’s neck and suddenly, a swift sound could be heard and Jamie felt like his vision had gone blind as Garen had completely disappeared. Surprised, he stood firmly and attacked his back.
There was still no one!
Jamie started to feel the shiver down his spine.
He finally understood what Bidaen experienced where the opponent disappeared right in front him and only his footsteps and wind generated could be heard.
Panic, he used all of his might and his speed had increased by two folds.
He even used both of his fists to attack left and right at the same time as he leaped forward.
He tried to catch up with Garen’s speed with all his might.
Unfortunately, he could only see the edge of his opponent’s shirt.
He, who couldn’t even see his opponent’s figure, was not able to use his so-called ultimate skill, poisonous pierce, which was only useful when he fought his opponent face to face. Hence he wouldn’t be able to use it under this circumstances.
Slam.
A finger gently landed on the back of his neck.

I give up! I give up!

Helpless, Jamie raised both of his hands up and admitted defeat.
The crowd cheered.
