Stunned by Alex's unprecedented success in the first round Aanya and her companions were completely shocked and determined to completely asset this remarkable young lad's talents to their maximum. After allowing Alex a 15-minute break Aanya began her explanation for the second trial
Aanya: This round is meant to determine your hand-to-hand combat skills. For that, we shall be holding a mock battle. All you need to do to pass is stay for as long as you can without any major damage.
Alex: Sounds easy enough..... so who is my opponent.
Aanya(with a slight bow): I shall have the honors of conducting your mock battle
Alex(Responding with a bow of his own): The honor is all mine.
Aanya and Alex both step onto the stage and Wilson stands in the middle as a referee.
Wilson: ok you two I want a clean match and try not to do too much damage to each other(with a glance towards Aanya) you may begin when ready.
Aanya: just because you are a kid don't think I will go easy on you.
Alex(to Alpha): Hey partner can I count on you for this round
Alpha: Iev already got it covered.
Alex/Alpha(in a mocking tone): It's not gonna be any fun if you go easy on me is it
Aanya: Don't get too full of yourself that smug attitude is what's gonna make you lose today.
Alex: Bring it on.
Wilson: Enough chit-chat you two are you ready or not
Aanya: Ready.
Alex: I was born ready.
Wilson: THEN BEGIN.
Aanya leaps towards Alex with a fighting burst of speed. She moves towards his left then tried to the round by aiming a kick towards Alex's neck. Without a warning, however, Alex moves his palm and grabs her kick before using her momentum to throw her a good 5 feet away. Aanya manages to stay on her feet but before she can regain her balance Alex launches a punch into her gut directly above her liver causing her almost throw-up blood.
Aanya(To herself): What the hell is with that kid's technique there isn't a single wasted movement it's like he has been practicing for the last 10 years or something and iv never seen anything like that he uses his opponent's momentum against them a perfect counter for my speed based technique. I have to think was or I am going to loose
Alex: What's wrong out of steam already?
Aanya: Dream on kid now way in hell am I going to go easy on you.
Alex: The you'd better hurry up or I might just start going all out.
Aanya(to herself): That much power and he is holding back just how strong is he. Is he even human what kind of monster have I come against this time?
Alex(to himself): Man this girl is crazy fast I would be screwed without Alpha.
Alex(to Alpha): Hey bud you doing ok we can make it right I don't want to worry since to taunted her like that but she is giving me a really scary look right now.
Alpha: Iv got I covered you can relax
Alex(to Alpha): Fine I am gonna trust you then. Let's show this girl who's boss partner.
Alpha: Got it.
Aanya suddenly lunged towards Alex. He simply sidestepped her but then he realized his mistake. Aanya used the tree behind him as a launchpad and hurled towards him like a living bullet. Realizing that dodging wasn't possible at the moment Alex readied himself to counter the blow. The moment Aanya's blow hit him he grabbed it with one arm, Twisted it then grabbed it with his second arm to get a good grip. Dug his heels into the ground which allowed him to spin around on the spot than using the force of her attack slammed Aanya into a nearby tree knocking her out
The audience was speechless unknown to Alex he had taken out the village's strongest warrior. Wilson looked thunderstruck and turned with a look of disbelief towards Valerie who had a similar look. The very thought of an 8-year-old beating their village's strongest warrior. Valerie looked at Alex with interest. Turning towards Wilson
Valerie: make sure no one hears about this. If word of this boys talent got out then we could be in big trouble
Wilson: Not a soul will hear from me tho even if I did tell someone I don't think they would believe me if I did.
Valerie: you might be right there anyway ger Aanya here so we can heal her. That previous attack packed quite a punch it there must be a good bit of damage done to her.
Wilson: As you command
Alex(to himself): That was a close one thanks for the help Alpha
Alpha: Np now I need to tell you something very important so listen to me
Alex: Sure I am ready to listen
Valerie: What are you standing there for its time for your third test
Alex: Hold that thought Alpha I will hear you out after this
Valerie: For the third test we shall be examining your magic skill and capacity.

The reason why Alex appears so strong is that he isn't taking any force of the attackers he's just turning it back its something like throwing a ball in a U-shaped tube the ball comes back to you but doesn't hit the tube that hard. This is something similar. His body itself is so weak that he would struggle to lift 5 kilos of weight. Secondly, the reason his punch was so strong is kinds like how karate works you use the momentum of the whole body into the hit
Hope I could make yall understand
