Chapter 77 The rematch for revenge
The next and possibly last class for Jake today was the hand to hand combat club. After walking for ten minutes, Jake was now finally In front of the gate to the club with Sunny standing in front of the gate waiting for him as usual. They walked into the club room and now they were fully in their club training uniform.
"I trust you must have heard the news about the tournament right?" Sunny asked.
"Yes. But why are they bringing it forward?" Jake asked.
To which sunny just shrugged. "I never know why those oldies do some certain things."
"Oldies?" Jake asked.
"Yes oldies. Oh, I meant those head generals." Sunny said. "So shall we begin our training for today?" Explore more at empire
Jake then nodded and as usual, sunny brought the dummy again for practice. "Now since you got all the moves I have been teaching you, it allowed us to advance faster in our class."
"So because of your talents and rapid growth, we will be learning one moves per day thanks to you." Sunny smiled.
"So let's begin with our first move of the day and hopefully, it will all be enough for your big day coming soon." Sunny then stood in front of the dummy. "Today's move is called Snake bite."
Sunny didn't activate the dummy, he wanted to show Jake how the move looked like in slow motion. "Now observe."
Sunny then moved back a bit to create a little bit of space between him and the dummy. Then he did a rapid three-punch combination targeting the dummy's face.
The move was a little too fast that Jake didn't catch anything. Understanding, Sunny decided to do it a little bit slower this time. Sunny moved back a bit then he dashed forward a bit slower and then threw a quick Jab, cross and hook towards the dummy's face.
Thankfully, Sunny pulled back on his strength so the dummy didn't go flying like before. Performing the move three more times, Sunny then activated the dummy and showed Jake how the move looked like with a charging opponent.
"Do you get it now or should I perform the move again?" Sunny asked.
"I think I have got it now." Jake replied then he went in front of the dummy and activated it then he moved back quickly to create space.
The dummy charged right at Jake then it swung its hand towards Jake's throat but Jake quickly activated the Guard stance then he tried to imitate sunny in doing the snake bite. Jake got the first two moves right but instead of a hook at the end, he ended up giving the dummy an uppercut because of the dummy's awkward position.
"Try again." Sunny shouted.
And Jake tried again but this time, instead of a Jab at the beginning, Jake threw a straight punch towards the dummy with full strength that caused the dummy to go crashing back at where Sunny sent it the previous time.
"Woah woah! It seems you have gotten a little bit stronger than before. Or did you use Qi in that punch?" Sunny asked.
"I don't even know." Jake replied.
Jake got the dummy again, then he performed the move over and over again but he couldn't just get it right and that was when the class ended. "It's okay you didn't get it right now, you can still get it right tomorrow so cheer up." Sunny said after noticing Jake's sour mood.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
Jake just wryly smiled and then left the club room for his dorm but before he got there, he decided to pay the VR room a visit. 'I couldn't practise with that dummy for more time, but I can practise against real human opponents right?' Jake thought as he was on his way to the VR gaming room.
After a few minutes of walking, Jake was now in front of the VR room then he quickly walked in, paid for just an hour because he was quite tired. Then he went to the capsule, hopped in, and logged in.
[Welcome User ID Wolf hunter]
Jake smiled then he was now transported to his white space. "Alright, I want to test my hand to hand skills so, I don't need to battle against werewolves for now. So let's battle against humans." Jake said.
And then Jake clicked on the [Fight with humans] option and the game started matching him up with someone his rank.
After a few minutes, the game finally found him a match. Immediately his opponent appeared, Jake's fans watches were pinged and now they were all in the spectating stands especially Dan, Sam and Nate.
Immediately Jake's opponent appeared, the count down clock also appeared and when it got to 0, Jake's opponent dashed towards him. 'Keep calm Jake, and wait for the right time.' Jake thought to himself.
And then Jake's opponent was now In front of Jake. His opponent threw a fist towards his face but Jake was more faster by using the Guard stance to block his face then he made a quick Jab towards his opponent's face that sent him skidding back a metre from Jake.
Then Jake quickly used the step shift to get in front of his opponent then Jake performed a cross towards his opponent's head that sent him crashing down on the ground hard. Jake didn't waste time in kicking his opponent hard that managed to kill his opponent therefore declaring Jake the winner.
Those in the stands applauded Jake but Jake didn't even pay attention to them. He was just focused on practising his moves. Sam, Dan and Nate were left with their mouth open after Jake's first match.
"Are we all seeing the same thing?" Sam asked.
"I think so, unless something is wrong with our eyes." Nate said. "How did the Wolf hunter grow so strong to the extent he defeated a gold rank player with a few moves."
"I mean it's not like he doesn't win his matches against Gold ranks but he usually struggled than this. Is this guy even human?" Nate asked. "Or what do you say to this Dan." Nate turned to where Dan was sitting but he wasn't there anymore.
Sam also turned around to look for Dan but he was no where to be found. "Please don't tell me he's planning to do it again."
"Yup I guess he's planning to do it again." Nate said looking towards the stage.
Because right on stage currently, a match was found for Jake again and standing there, was Dan in the avatar of the Vortex an opponent that easily defeated Jake before. Will Jake manage to defeat the vortex now or will he still be defeated like before?
