Chapter 267: Knocked a Tooth Loose

Franklin stood there, utterly dumbfounded. In his heart, he silently thought, Thank goodness for giving me a chance to change.

Felix lay sprawled on the ground, his mind ringing. Olivia’s punch was so fast that he had no time to evade. He couldn’t even clearly see her fist. Everything had gone beyond what he had anticipated.

Felix hurriedly got to his feet. The left side of his face, which had taken the hit, was now swollen beyond recognition. The metallic taste of blood filled his mouth. He spat out a clump of blood and realized with a start… a molar had fallen out along with it.

Felix stayed silent. Even the instructors nearby widened their eyes in shock. A tooth? Gone? This was absurd!

“Are you still okay?” Olivia tilted her head slightly, her innocent expression focused on Felix.

Felix wiped the blood from his lips, his gaze fixed on the small girl before him. She was clearly shorter by half a head, her waist so slim it didn’t even match his thigh. But how could such a petite figure hold such terrifying power?

“Keep going!”

Olivia sighed. Why does finishing early have to be so hard?

This time, Felix didn’t dare take her lightly. He steadied himself, preparing to fight with full seriousness. Olivia, however, remained calm and carefree, standing idly.

Felix narrowed his eyes and charged at Olivia with a tiger-like leap. His fist clenched tightly, the effort making his knuckles turn white.

“Whoa, Felix is going all out now?” the students whispered in awe.

Being knocked down in front of everyone had bruised Felix’s pride. That humiliation stoked his competitive fire. He didn’t care that they were filming anymore and attacked Olivia with everything he had.

Just as everyone began to feel anxious for Olivia, she stood firm, clenching her fist and aiming it directly at Felix’s punch.

“She’s lost her mind! Trading punches with Felix?”

“His fists are famous in the army for a reason!”

“It’s over. Olivia’s hand is doomed!”

Everyone was floored by Olivia’s audacity. Strength aside, directly clashing fists with Felix seemed reckless. Only Kyson’s expression shifted, as if he had figured something out.

At the moment their fists collided, the sharp crack of bones breaking echoed loudly.

As Felix lay there, his face contorted in pain. His thick fist was torn apart, with blood splattering everywhere. Meanwhile, Olivia’s small, delicate fist remained unscathed, aside from the blood left by Felix.

The crowd was speechless. The entire training ground fell into silence.

If Felix’s first loss could be dismissed as carelessness, the second was a clean, unembellished clash of raw power. No one could have imagined it. In a head-to-head contest, the first to break was Felix, renowned for his indestructible fists.

Felix staggered to his feet, his mangled hand trembling. He alone understood the devastating force behind Olivia’s punch. The moment their fists connected, his bone had cracked. The excruciating pain made sweat bead on his forehead.

Struggling to keep himself composed, Felix lifted his gaze to the unharmed Olivia. For the first time, his contempt gave way to awe and confusion.

“What are you?” he asked.

Speed, strength, stamina… none of it seemed like something an ordinary person could possess.
