The New F4 Chapter 15 – 2nd Battle

Wong Tin Ma charged X and threw a right front kick as a feint, then punched out with his right fist in a combination strike of jab, hook, backfist.

X shifted his body away from each strike. Tin Ma then threw out a left side kick towards the exposed side of X. Again X simply shift away.

"What's the matter? Afraid of ruining your suit?" sneered Wong Tin Ma.

"As a matter of fact yes! I don't make it a habit to throw away $350,000(NT)!" X dryly put in.

San Cai choked upon hearing this.

Wong Tin Ma sneered, "Commoner!" Then jumps into back spinning kick.

But X was already in motion when Tin Ma jumped and in the middle of the turn X body checked into Tin Ma in mid spin. Wong Tin Ma went flying.

While Tin Ma was thrown X calmly takes off his jacket, folds it neatly and was about to place it on the floor when San Cai runs out to him.

"San Cai!" Dao Ming Si yells to San Tsai.

X is looking at San Cai curiously when she got to him.

"Here, I'll take your jacket. Don't put a $350,000 jacket on the floor!" said a smiling San Cai. X smiles and nods his gratitude.

Then he gives her his tie also, X starts to roll up his his sleeves, his wrist thick and forearms rippling with muscle. San Cai runs back.

"What? You a servant or something?" yelled Dao Ming Si.

"I just don't want him to put this expensive jacket on the floor that's all!" San Cai said in a tone that ended the discussion. Dao Ming Si sighed and rolled his eyes.

"Ah Si, that's San Cai's way. You should know by now!" Hua Ze Lei said.

San Cai smiled gratefully at Hua Ze Lei.

Dao Ming Si just grumbles.

Wong Tin Ma walks back to X facing him. Eyes filled with murder.

"Took off your jacket? Ready to dance?" Wong Tin Ma said sardonically.

"Wong Tin Ma, listen to me and listen well. What I will do next bears you no malice. It is a lesson. There is a part of you that understands me. There is more to life if you ever open your eyes and your mind. Or still the venom that is in your heart." X softly said.

Wong Tin Ma eyes widen when he hears this.

A small part in his mind told him to stop while he can now. And he was thinking about it until a vision of his father came up.

He thought about the many times in his youth when someone beat him in anything be it in sports, or games, or even grades his father beats him.

As he got older he doesn't get beaten but was made to feel very inferior.

Fury is now building in his heart and is showing through his face.

"I will win!" he snarls and goes into his guarding stance. X nods understanding.

"So be it!" X said. Then he goes into his guarding stance. His right leg is slightly bent.

The left foot is pointing down, toe just touching the floor. Both his hands open in front of him in a guard position.

And they faced each other thus, no one moving for a several seconds, letting their minds being one with their bodies.

X explodes toward Wong Tin Ma.

The spectators gasp at X's speed.

Hands were blurring in motion.

Wong Tin Ma immediately hard pressed goes on the defensive. Wong Tin Ma's arms are already numb because X's style of fighting is immediate counterstrike against a guarding technique.

When X punches toward Tin Ma's head and is blocked as soon as the punch was blocked X's elbow smashes into Tin Ma's arm followed up by a dizzying array of strikes.

It is obvious to everyone that Wong Tin Ma is overmatched.
Wong Tin Ma strikes are become more wild and desperate. He is already looking very battered.

Unable to land a strike he finally roars and charges X, seeking to grapple with him.

As Wong Tin Ma closed in on X, X jumps up and does a jump spinning back kick into Tin Ma's abdomen.

The force of the kick nearly folding Tin Ma's body in half and sends him flying. Wong Tin Ma collapses in a heap.

Wong Tin Ma starts laughing though. It sounded strangled, and insane.

It raised the hackles on everyone's neck just hearing it.

Wong Tin Ma slowly gets to his feet, swaying, and stops laughing. He looked like he had been put through a meat grinder.

He looks at X and rasps, "I will win!" and staggers toward X. Everyone gasped.

Dao Ming Si shakes his head and muttered, "Idiot!"

San Cai slaps him in the back of the head.

"Ow! What was that for!" said Dao Ming Si rubbing his head.

"Pig head, were you any different over a year ago?" Said San Cai who pitied Wong Tin Ma now.

Everyone is stunned when Wong Tin Ma throws a punch and it lands on X's face!

Wong Tin Ma keeps punching X in the face. X is standing there taking the punches.

"I!" Left punch.

"Will!" Right punch.

"Win!" Left punch again.

But this punch was spent and did not have any energy behind it.
Wong Tin Ma collapses to his knees sobbing.

X utters something that no one catches except for Wong Tin Ma.

"Wong Tin Ma. I am sorry."

Lin Wai and Mok Po Le went over to Wong Tin Ma.

Everyone is staring at X.

San Cai gives him back his tie and jacket.

"Thank you, Ms. San Cai!" said X. San Cai opens her eyes in shock.

"Y-You know me?" she asks.

"Indeed! I know everyone here!" X said while straightening his shirt then putting his tie and jacket back on.

Everyone looked at each other.

"Hey, since you know us don't you think you should tell us your name, it can't be just Ecks! How do you spell that, by the way?" asked Dao Ming Si.

As Dao Ming Si said that Wong Tin Ma broke through past them. If he looked battered further away he appeared much worse up close.

Tin Ma went and faced X. Everyone tensed.
