Unbeatable

Watching from above, Scar and Alex stood watching the performance of their teams.

"Look, my men have reached your flag; it seems we'll have a winner faster than I imagined," Alex said.

Without looking at him, Scar commented to Alex, "It won't be that easy since your men will have to face a living wall!" Scar said.

"A living wall? Sure, he seems strong, but not to the extent of a living wall. Are you sure he can be called that?" Alex asked sarcastically.

"Of course, as if you didn't have a child who defeated the second-best combatant in my tribe through exhaustion," Scar said.

"That was strategy; I used my advantages against your disadvantages. What I mean is that your man doesn't seem to have the disadvantages of a wall; he seems more like a shield at best," Alex said.

"A shield? Well, that could be included, but a wall suits him more since shields are sometimes destroyed. Despite there being ways to bring down a wall, the effort is incomparably greater," Scar said.

"Uh-huh, I guess we'll have to break down your wall, then!" Alex said, giving a slight smile. "Sure, good luck," Scar said.

Gasping for breath, Helio stood atop his opponents after a tense battle. Helio emerged as the victor, but now he was too tired to continue and help his comrades.

"Haha, these guys are really stronger than I thought. I don't think they'll send just anyone to compete in this match," Helio said weakly.

One of the opponents Helio defeated was still conscious. "Hahaha, you may have stopped us, but it won't matter. Your friends will have to face Qin the wall; they won't even touch that flag," the fallen opponent said.

"Shut up!" Helio said, delivering a punch that knocked the opponent unconscious.

"Ha, I hope you guys can make it, Max," Helio said before passing out from exhaustion.

...

At the same time, the battle between Max and Luke versus Qin had reached a stalemate.

No matter how hard they tried or what tactics they used, nothing seemed to work.

"What's this guy's deal? He doesn't even hit that hard, but it's like I'm hitting a rock," Luke said.

"Indeed, if this continues, we'll really lose," Max said.

"It's better if you stop. You won't be able to defeat me because I spend every day doing just this—defending. No one from the tribe, except the chief, can get through my defenses," Qin said.

"What about that guy Snow? Wasn't he the second-best? If you're so good, why aren't you ranked higher?" Max asked.

"Ha, Snow and I are different. He's the strongest, second only to the chief in raw strength, but like your friend did before, he's not as fast and tires much faster than others. I, on the other hand, have speed and endurance above others, although my physical strength isn't the greatest. I can be considered just slightly stronger than the rest," Qin explained.

"Really? Well, it doesn't matter; we'll win anyway!" Max declared.

"Hmph, even if you use something like that strange thing your friend used against Snow, it won't work. My body will take your attacks, and my speed will counter your advances. Either way, you won't get past me," Qin said.

...

On the ground were the other members of Alex's team left to protect the flag, all unconscious.

"Haha, finally, we did it! Quickly, let's go back and finish this!" Gasping for air, Quiteria and her men had captured Alex's flag!
