Naturally, Luke’s main goal wasn’t to suppress Brooke.
She was the stereotypical rich schoolgirl who was nothing more than a fly he was swatting in passing; he was putting on fake airs for Mindy’s sake.
After today, any young miss or master who came looking for Mindy had to have enough capital.
First of all, they had to be rich enough to easily fork out hundreds of thousands of dollars to modify their car for fun, and secondly, their own technical skills had to be good enough. Otherwise, they weren’t qualified to provoke Mindy.
There was also an additional condition for the guys — they had to be as handsome as Luke.
Luke didn’t think that many junior high school guys could meet all these requirements.
Ultimately, however, if Mindy was still bullied for no reason, the group leader would very likely be beaten up.
There were very few junior high school kids who could fight better than Mindy.
Mindy was still deep in thought when Monica sat down next to her and handed her a bottle of mineral water. She jerked her chin at the two people who had already started to discuss the spar. “You weren’t bragging about your brother, right? Nikki is quite good. When we fight seriously, I’m not her match.”
Mindy came back to her senses. Hearing that, she looked at Monica strangely. “You’re overthinking it.”
Monica wasn’t stupid. Hearing that, she knew that her worries were misplaced. “Is Luke that good?”
Mindy chuckled and took a sip. “Don’t worry. If he’s just playing around, he probably won’t hurt you.”
Monica stared at her. “Your skills were indeed quite good when you passed the team entrance exam. So, you have a good foundation in combat?”
Mindy scrunched up her nose cutely. “Shall we try it later?”
Monica stretched out her right fist. “Let’s do that.”
Mindy looked at her fist and then bumped it with her own. “Alright.”
Nikki and Luke were already standing in place.
To return the favor today, Luke readily agreed to a match and would let her do her best until she conceded on her own.
Even if he defeated her, he still had to think of other ways to lose so that the girl wouldn’t become unlucky.
Both parties put on gloves and protective gear to avoid getting hurt.
Luke wasn’t afraid, but he didn’t want to look like he was looking down on Nikki, so he put on the protective gear to avoid getting Nikki’s hands hurt.
Putting his hands up in a very ordinary boxing pose, he beckoned for her to start.
Nikki didn’t waste any time. With a light yell, her punches rained down like a storm.
Professional! That was Luke’s first impression.
Nikki demonstrated the strength of a professional fighter with her opening attack; she wasn’t at the level of an amateur as Luke had thought.
Also, when she saw him easily block her punches with the standard boxing stance, she gradually punched faster and stronger.
A minute later, Mindy was very surprised. She nudged Monica. “Are the core members of your combat club all female UFC fighters?”
Monica watched Luke’s every move. “No. Nikki is just doing some daily training there. If she does her best, only I can barely be her sparring partner.”
Mindy was surprised. “You can fight her?”
She was watching the details of Luke and Nikki’s battle from up close.
Nikki might not necessarily lose to her in a private match like this.
Of course, Mindy would definitely kill Nikki instantly in a real fight, but that was because their fighting experience and requirements were different.
With Nikki’s skills, as long as she didn’t show any mercy in killing drug dealers like Mindy, she had a 50-50 chance of winning.
Mindy really hadn’t expected that.
If Monica could fight Nikki, then she wasn’t much weaker than Mindy.
No wonder the two girls were so confident when they talked about fighting; they really weren’t ordinary enthusiasts.
At that moment, it wasn’t Mindy who was the most shocked, but Nikki and Monica.
They had been hiding their strength all this time since they had no use for it.
They only met in the seventh grade, and had just been ordinary acquaintances then.
But the two of them had accidentally bumped into each other at a nightclub. Monica had snuck in for a look, but was harassed by a bunch of hoodlums.
Monica had completely looked down on them. After leading them into a dark alley, a fight broke out.
Not far away, Nikki saw Monica being forced into an alley by a bunch of hoodlums. Even though they didn’t know each other that well, she still went to help out.
After entering the alley, she saw Monica fighting a dozen hoodlums.
Nikki attacked without hesitation. Together, they knocked out the dozen or so hoodlums.
It could be said that they grew close after a fight.
Their extraordinary combat ability was their shared secret.
Everybody in the gym had different thoughts, but Luke was the most surprised.
As he attacked, the strength which Nikki displayed increased, and so did her reflexes.
She was physically even stronger than Selina without Gold Nugget as a symbiotic host, and only lacked experience and reflexes.
But Selina had been on a training regime for half a year.
At the same time, Gold Nugget absorbed the special energy in her body every day before sending it back. Her physique improved steadily, and she was now twice as strong as an ordinary person.
Nikki was only a high school student. How could she be stronger than Selina, who had a cheat?
Superhuman! Surprise flashed through his mind. After thinking for a moment, he decisively decided — to beat Nikki fairly.
Not accepting this God-given opportunity would be a crime. He would compensate Nikki later.
Making up his mind, he didn’t take action immediately, but observed Nikki more carefully.
Nikki was a tall, white girl. At sixteen, she was still rather thin. Whether it was her limbs or her waist, she looked very different from a strength-type fighter.
Or rather, she shouldn’t be so strong given her physique.
The way she hit Luke with her fists, an ordinary girl would have already broken her arms.
Nikki, however, was unperturbed, and even grew more excited the more she fought.
At that moment, she warned him, “Be careful. I’m going to use more combat skills. Don’t just focus on my fists.”
Luke nodded with a smile. “Just nice, I can try something else too.”
As she spoke, Nikki took two steps back and switched from boxing to a UFC fighting style, and her movements became even more nimble.
When Luke’s stance changed, Nikki’s eyes lit up. “Muay Thai?”
Luke chuckled but didn’t answer.
This wasn’t Muay Thai.
As long as the situation was right, he could use Brazilian jiu-jitsu to take her down in the next second.
But seeing that Nikki might be able to give him an ability, he decided to let her be happy for a bit.
Mindy and Monica, who were sitting on the side, didn’t say anything. They couldn’t take their eyes off the other two, and waited for an even more brilliant fight.
