The tournament (14)

Jacqueline punched Erik, but he raised his arm and parried the strike, using the mana surrounding his appendages to deflect the girl's lethal claws. This left the young woman open, and Erik took the opportunity to spin on himself and kick her in the abdomen.

POW!

The young woman felt the kick on her stomach and gasped for air. She was thrown off balance and fell on her butt.

Though despite having trouble breathing, her mind was still sharp and focused on the fight. Without air in her lungs, she rolled on her back and gained distance from Erik, who, in the meantime, went back into posture and started chasing the young woman. Erik was trying to kick her in the face with his knee.

He actually replicated Zakir's stylish move, and he ran, gaining momentum. Once he was sufficiently close to his opponent, he jumped at Jacqueline's height and extended his leg to hit the young woman.
