Three Formidable Forces

Bobby's ferocious fighting style left the spectators curious. The students were whispering among themselves, sharing their guesses on what Bobby could be thinking. He was sustaining injuries with each attack; if it wasn't for his direct speed and agility, he would have been defeated by now. Abe didn't understand the other boy's motivations, but he knew he could outlast him in a battle of attrition. Bobby wouldn't be able to keep this up for very long. He was at a higher cultivation level and had a bloodline; in another 200 moves, Bobby would have expended all of his energy.
