What The Luck!? Chapter 164

"Fight!" The call went out and the two moved in. They circled each other to get a view of their opponents' weak points. Art had half expected the boxing club member to rush in but now that the match started the members' personality changed.
Art stayed back and held himself ready. He was waiting for the right moment to dash forward and use the force he had to end the match in an instant. The first move came in the form of a test jab. The fighting style of the boxing club member was very cautious making Art bite his tongue. He wanted to jump in and end thus but the arrogant kid was better than expected.
Art didn't need much effort to dodge these hits and responded with a slow jab and slow sweeping kick. He wanted to bait him in to attack instead of just let him feel out his own style. The boxing club member sped up his hits slowly as if he was slowly starting. It was a style that would make his opponent feel more and more pressured at the risk of using more stamina.
Art didn't even flinch at this. He was used to dealing with Janes' random bursts of speed and Asher's unpredictability. Nothing an opponent could do other than use their super power would shock him.
Art responded by speeding up as well. He knew that he had some decent stamina from working out and training his body hard. Soon he had thrown some combos using the kicks which the boxing club member didn't seem to know what to do with.
Art wanted to incorporate more kicks but the boxing club member got closer to keep this from happening. The combos Art was blocking were harder than he expected making him start to back away. This was a mistake that told the boxing club member that Art was reaching his limit.

The boxing club member pushed in harder than before adding some hefty right and left hooks in to the combos. This made Art dodge from side to side but also left the boxing club member open to attack. This was the chance that Art needed.
Art burst forward with his hands open and grabbed the boxing member around the arm and hip. The boxing club member was shocked and couldn't get his fists in the right position to land a clean blow. Art had a good rip and continued to sure it up.
With Art in control, the boxing club member could only struggle. Art tightened his gri[p and lifted with his legs. The boxing club member found himself off the ground and falling backward in Arts' grip. When Art hit his back he rolled and clasped his hands around his opponent. His grip tightened even more and he pulled his locked hands towards him.
"Gaaahhh!" The boxing club member was forced out of breath while Art crushed him on the ground.
"He learned a body lock last night!" Asher was shocked that Art had pulled this off too. He hadn't seen Art practice this at all and wondered when he had managed it.
Art was putting more and more force but his opponent still had yet to tap out. The staff member was waiting still looking for a reason to end the match. But it wasn't yet at a point they needed to. Art continued his pressure.
Asher could see that Art had yet to use his super power but was feeling that he would need to if he did not win soon. "How is that kid still holding on? I would have tapped out ages ago." Louis was watching the painful body lock in fear.
"The boxing club members take punches all the time, they had a pain resistance." Jackson gave this explanation which easily summed everything up.

Art was feeling that his opponent wouldn't be giving up anytime soon. His gaze hardened and he focused his super power on the metal beads in the wrist weights. He pulled them toward his body and added a slight amount of force to his crushing body lock. The boxing club members' eyes bulged as he felt the pressure on his ribs.
"Out, I-m Out-!" The boxing club member barely got the words out before he lost all his breath.
"Art wins! The match is over!" The staff member rushed to Art after calling it and checked the released boxing club member who was gasping for breath.
"And you thought you could go against Asher? Next time use something other than close combat punches and maybe you will be a challenge." Art spoke and walked away. This was part annoyance and part taunt at the other boxing club members waiting around the edge.
Asher watched as the uproar from the other boxing club members grew, "Dude, When did you practice the body lock?"
"Just now, I watched a video while the last match happened because I was interested and I was really annoyed that he tried to call you out. I just tried it and it worked…" Art faded out as he said this since it was a dangerous gamble.
"So you could have lost just then if it didn't work?" Jane was looking at him wide eyed, "I swear every time I think you have gotten smarter you do something like this." She walked on to the sparring center herself wanting to take down an opponent. She had been annoyed by the boxing club members' rowdy behavior too.
"I'm glad it worked, but are you sure you aren't secretly a martial art prodigy and have just been fooling us?" Asher teased Art a little and was glad to see his mood relaxing.
"If I was you would have forced me out at some point. Sparring against you guys is like a professional match." Art was sure that if he had any secrets his friends would have pulled them from him without even trying. They were just that good of rivals.
"It's good to hear that you think so Highly of Jane and I, but Jane looks like she is about to have a tough opponent." Asher was glad to hear the positive thoughts of Art but became caught up in the opponent Jane had.
