After the six men changed their strategy, it was evident that their attack had become slightly more effective.
However, they gradually realized the instructor’s formidable strength. Although the six teamed up to fight him, the instructor still
effortlessly held his own after ten minutes, which demonstrated his exceptional skills.
They could assert without a doubt that the physical stamina of the instructor was in no way on par with that of the six of them.
If only they could endure a bit longer, they would unequivocally manage to subdue the instructor.
They were able to discern Catherine’s tactics, and Catherine could see their thoughts as well.
Catherine changed her strategy. She was engaged in a war of attrition with them earlier.
From that moment on, she suddenly stepped up her attack.
Her movements were incredibly swift. She didn’t take them on individually but targeted one and charged a brutal attack.
There was absolutely no opportunity for the other party to hit back.
Despite Catherine’s small stature, her punches were surprisingly powerful. She had already found out who was the weakest
during the previous war of attrition.
That would be her first objective.
The other five individuals noticed that Catherine only attacked one person without fully understanding her intentions. As a result,
they became confused, and their actions weakened.
Every second counted when experts fought. During a moment of confusion, the trainee who lacked his helpers was quickly taken
down. To completely incapacitate him, Catherine didn’t hold back at all.
The instructors watching the battle on the side seemed somewhat terrified. After all, they were all hardened individuals who had
witnessed the shedding of blood on the battlefield.
Everyone was doing the math in their heads, figuring out if they could last an hour against a formidable opponent like Catherine if
they were to step into the arena right then.
There were six people before, and now, one of them was completely wrecked by Catherine.
Next, Catherine took the same strategy and knocked out two more trainees.
Currently, only Carlo and Cory were still standing in the arena, along with another extremely large and durable trainee who was
super strong and capable of taking a good beating.
Carlo and Cory both realized the objective of their instructor, whose prowess was truly terrifying.
To survive, their only option was to work together as a trio.
In 15 minutes, the mission would come to an end. They could successfully accomplish this task as long as they could hold on for
these 15 minutes.
The Duncans brothers naturally would unite together. But when they gave insinuations to the fat guy, the fat guy didn’t react at
all. The fat guy had his own secret plan in his mind.
He was aware that he was currently the strongest among this group of people, and Catherine would not choose him as her first
target. The purpose of his coming here was for the greatest honor.
“Isn’t it more honorable to be the only one standing at the end rather than standing together with two others?” he thought.
This was the scheming of the fat guy.
However, he never expected that he had guessed wrongly. Catherine did not start her attack with the Duncans brothers but
instead chose to target the powerful fat guy.
It took the fat guy a few seconds to react. He was caught off guard by Catherine’s attack. Catherine didn’t confront him directly
but used a gentle approach to overcome the strong.
She stared at the fat guy’s massive body, hoping to imagine his face as that of Branden so she could vent out some frustration.
But the fat guy was just too ugly to be related to Branden.
Helplessly, Catherine had to finish him as soon as possible.
Five minutes.
In just five minutes, the fat guy coveted by everyone as the last hope was knocked down in front of all.
After defeating the fat guy, Catherine stood atop her spoils and beckoned to the Duncans brothers with a confident demeanor.
“You guys attack together.”
Cory and Carlo exchanged a glance. There were only ten minutes remaining.
“Despite the formidable power of the instructor, which may lead one to believe that such a creature could not possibly exist, as
long as we can successfully hold out for these ten minutes, there is still hope,” they thought.
They decided to proactively attack and seize the initiative while using all their strength to restrain Catherine.
Although Catherine’s strength was formidable, she had already consumed too much energy before. Therefore, she still struggled
a bit when she was fighting the two.
As for the Duncans, the brothers were different from other groups. They worked together with excellent coordination and mutual
understanding.
As Catherine continued to fight, her expressions became increasingly serene, and her gaze exuded a calm aura.
There was only one minute left. Carlo gritted his teeth and persevered. His leg had just been kicked by the instructor and was
almost destroyed.
If he were to fall, Cory would also be out of the game.
Whether it was for Cory or himself, he must hold on. As the final ten seconds began to count down, he watched the instructor
rush toward Cory with a fierce blow. Carlo rushed forward and held back the instructor with all his strength.
Time was up. Jon blew the whistle.
Out of the six people, only Cory stood till the end.
Because Carlo sacrificed himself to keep Cory.
Among these six men, he also suffered the most severe injuries. Catherine lowered her head and looked at Carlo, who was still
tightly holding onto her, saying sternly, “Won’t you let go yet?”
Carlo paused for a second before he quickly let go of his hand. “Sorry, Mr. Anon. I forgot!”
Catherine lowered her head and glanced at him, then announced to the men on the ground, “Don’t forget! An extra training for
the fallen one tonight!”
Everyone wanted to cry and whine but didn’t have the guts to. After all, they were too weak and couldn’t beat the instructor, even
with six of them teaming up.
Jon looked down on the group of trainees with a contemptuous expression.
Only after Catherine left did they dare to wail.
“Do you still have the face to cry? After completing the weight training tonight, each of you will write a two- thousand-word self-
criticism! Reflect deeply on why some people can endure till the end!”
The only reason Cory could stand till the end was because of Carlo’s strong support.
Since they had been selected as a group of six, they were effectively considered a team.
If they could unite together, the outcome would definitely be different.
However, each of them was fighting for their own interests without any sense of teamwork, which ultimately led to nearly the
entire group being wiped out.
The other four people, especially the fat guy, were scolded so severely that they didn’t dare to raise their heads.
If the fat guy hadn’t relied on his physical advantage just now to be the only winner, they could have lasted the fifteen minutes.
At least half of the people would have stood till the end, and they wouldn’t have been looked down upon by everyone like now.
Cory went over and helped Carlo get up.
As the only one who could take a break, he had to administer medication to Carlo. After walking to a place where no one was
around, Carlo couldn’t help but whisper to Cory.
“Aaron, don’t you think the move the instructor just used feels familiar?
“Why do I feel that we’re fighting Miss Swann again? Could it be that they learned from the same teacher?”
“That Miss Swann by our boss’ side has always been a huge enigma,” he thought. After the incident last time, Carlo never dared
to underestimate any woman around him.
After all, he was once defeated by a girl in a three-on-one fight. How could he have the guts to look down on others or
discriminate based on gender?
At first, Cory didn’t want to respond, but Carlo was too noisy, so he had to explain the situation.
“What nonsense are you talking about? “he asked.
Carlo thought that Cory didn’t believe it and was eager to explain. “I’m serious. They might be disciples of the same teacher.
They had identical attack skills!”
Cory couldn’t help but roll his eyes, wondering, “How did I come to know such an idiot?”
“Not just identical, but the same person!” he replied.
“The same person?” wondered Carlo.
He was astonished. His mouth dropped so wide that it could fit a whole egg in one gulp.
He stared straight at Cory with his eyes wide open and even forgot the pain in his body. “So you’re saying that Mr. Anon is
Catherine Swann?”
