CH130 Unexpected Opponent

Back at the arena, some time before...

Alex had been granted a quarter of an hour for treatment before his next duel would begin.

The crowd murmured with doubt, anticipation, and curiosity over what was to come. Many worried about how much the fight with Kurt had taken out of him—especially his final, relentless flurry.

After all, Alex had punched Kurt nonstop for five full minutes with high intensity. And that was on top of the already gruelling effort he'd put into defending against Kurt's own five-minute onslaught earlier.

The toll on his body wouldn't be small.

It was doubtful the healers could restore him to peak condition before the next match began.
