3 Adrian and Yahui

In the five year old matches no one was allowed to use weapons since they would lack control and may hurt the other children. The two to watch in this age group was Adrian and Yahui who would meet for the finale. Adrian's fighting style was filled with strength and focused on over powering his opponent. While Yahui was taller then average for her age so she used speed and reach to best her opponents.

In Adrian's first match he was facing a big muscled child from the Prodst family. Both youths were ready to show off their strength. As the referee gave the go ahead the youth from the Prodst family charged at Adrian with his fists swinging. Adrian looked on as if he didn't give his peer didn't enter his eye. He smashed his own fist forward and they hit fist to fist. This caused both to grimace but neither is willing to give up the fight. They continue in this manner until the Prodst boy can't take it any more giving in. Both have bloody knuckles.

Looking proud of him self and with many youths praising his strength and bravery. Raul Just shook his head. "Are you happy with that fight?"

"What I won and beat him at his own game!" Adrian angrily yelled causing a scene. There were plenty of menacing smiles looking at the Emerald family.

"I thought you were going to come fight me. How many more battles can you fight now with your fists like that?" Raul grabbed his hands and pulled them to look at them causing Adrian to visibly wince. "Get him some medicinal bandages for him to use during the match at least." Raul spoke to the medicine master they brought a long who quickly came over to take a look.

Through gritted teeth Adrian stated "Even if I had both my hands broken I could still win against every one in my age group!"

Raul looked at his father who has a scowl and mother which has a worried frown and sighed. "Fine, just do your best not to permanently hurt your hands." After which he turned away from his incensed brother and returned to his seat.

Adrian who had a seat next to his brother chose to not return to his seat and get treated. Pouting he tried to pay attention to the matches. Every so often he would flinch from pain in his knuckles from the medicine.

Soon Yahui was up for her first match. She was fighting a young lad from the Kang family. The boy was happy to be fighting a girl off the bat he was sure he'd over power her. The boy from the Kang family wasn't a brute like the boy from the Prodst family. They begin by circling each other until Yahui took the initiative to move in which a quick punch to the boys face. He hadn't managed to block but he was surprised by how little he was hurt. Without any worries the Kang youth pushed forward ignoring the attacks from the Yahui. However she was just out of reach looking like a dancer avoiding all the attacks surprising many with her finesse. Soon the exhausted boy could no longer fight clenching her the victory.

Adrian grumbled that her way of fighting was unfair. While glancing at his brother who seemed uninterested. Through gritted teeth he complained. "He's so pompous thinking he's better then everyone else."

His next match soon arrived. Reluctantly he was forced to take a more conservative fighting style from now on due to his fists hurting. Still both Yahui and Adrian found no true opponent in their age group. So as expected these two would face off in the five year old finale. As they prepared the beginnings of the first of the six year old combatants faced off in nearby rings.

Yahui smiled happily as she entered the arena waving at her parents in the stands. On the other end Adrian who was enduing a great amount of pain from his swollen fist could only grimace. While laughing melodiously Yahui greets Adrian "Even though this is our fist meeting your gallantry indeed hasn't been exaggerated. But today I will be the victor!"

Adrian frowned he couldn't be beaten by a girl here. Yet looking at his hands that were slightly shaking from the pain he didn't have high hopes. He was enraged that his brother was right he had made a huge mistake. "Even though you are quite skilled I only need one punch to connect to win." He postured hoping no one would notice his predicament. Glancing quickly at his brother he saw a bit of his smug smile which made his heart sink.

Shaking his head he focused on the tall slim girl in front of him. Both had sweat glistening on their foreheads proofing that neither had much stamina left. Adrian gritted his teeth and charged forward only focusing on getting that one hit with out fear. To his surprise Yahui stood her ground throwing out a quick straight kick right at his undefended stomach. He didn't have time to shift his weight at this point and could only endure.

The kick sunk in to Adrian's stomach sending foundation energy into him. He was shocked feeling the energy flow into him. He had only felt this a few times when sparring with older kids in the family. Knees buckling out of his control he fell to the ground.

Those powerful individuals in the stands were shocked for a kid of only 5 years old to be able to use even a bit of foundation energy was a great genius. Lingxin just gave a slight nod oozing pride in the young girl. All the others could only grudgingly admit that the Akachi truly had a great new star in the family.

The referee was also surprised but quickly recomposed him self announcing "The Akachi's family Yahui is the victor of the five year old division. Would you like to face off in the six year old division?"

Yahui was drained and even a bit pail shaking her head "I fear that I used my last bit of strength here." No one would blame her she already did a spectacular job of showing her skill.

"I haven't lost yet!" Adrian hollers standing to his feet he begun to rush the weakened Yahui.

Before even the experienced referee could step in Raul was in front of Adrian. "You've done enough today." Raul Grabbed Adrians arm and tossed him out of the ring with ease. He'd expected this little outburst and was prepared for it.

"Brother don't get in my way." He screamed before slamming into the ground loosing consciousness.

While smiling at the young girl Raul said. "I apologize for the interruption. You did well out there Yahui, I hope you won't hold this against him." Giving a slight bow to the leaders in the stand he turned and left going back to his chair as if nothing happened.
