Anzo swung his sword in a massive overhead arc, aiming to end the spar with a single decisive blow. But Alister moved with speed, sidestepping and slipping past the blade's reach with ease. In one smooth motion, he clenched his scaled fist and struck Anzo's sword.
The clash sent the great sword flying from Anzo's grasp, the blade spinning through the air before crashing into the ground with a resounding
THUD. The impact created a small crater, and a shocked silence rippled through the crowd.
Before Anzo could react, Alister closed the gap between them, delivering a devastating punch to his abdomen. The force sent Anzo stumbling backward, skidding to a halt as he dropped to one knee, breathless.
The crowd erupted into chaos.
"Did that really just happen?!"
"He knocked Anzo's sword away like it was nothing!"
"That punch… did you see the impact? I swear I felt it from here!"
