On the pza, over a thousand Ameri soldiers sat in the tral area, eagerly watg.

  Just a moment ago, Kyle and Steve were silently fronting each other, but in the moment, they both explosively charged towards each other.

  From the perspective of a third party, it seemed like only a blink of an eye, and they were already engaged in fierce close-quarters bat.

  "Be careful." Realizing that he couldn't let Kyle seize the initiative to take a, Steve took the initiative to apply pressure.

  As he approached the attack range, he gathered power in his left hand and shed out toward Kyle's face like a whip.

  'Hey, bro, don't hit people in the face!' Suppressing his desire to retort in his heart, Kyle reacted quickly, lifting his right arm without the Vibranium Bracer to block the strike.

  "Bang!" The attack failed, and Steve bent his left leg backward, raising his knee in an angur shape.

  He wao deny any opportunity for respite alessly apply high-iy offensive pressure to crush his oppo.

  As if expeg it, Kyle raised his left leg and, with a deyed strike, kicked Steve's leg, which was about to collide with his abdomen, halting it precariously.

  "Hmm?" Steve frowned, not expeg to be at a disadvantage so quickly due to the experience gap.

  He gritted his teeth, not retreating but advang, and tio unch punches and kicks, engaging in close-quarters bat with Kyle.

  "Bang, Bang, Bang!" Although it was just a game of fists and kicks, the powerful collisioween them produced a resounding burst of for the air!

  "They truly are worthy of being Super Soldiers."

  "S! Their punch could kill an ordinary persht?"

  "Cough, cough. everyone behind us take a step back? I'm getting a bit nervous now."

  The soldiers in the crowd were dumbfounded, and the soldier sitting closest to the inner circle instinctively shifted his buttocks backward, fearing that the fight would affect them.

  Kyle once again blocked a punch with his fist, although he was skilled, he was gradually starting to feel a bit breathless uhe relentless onsught.

  This made Steve secretly delighted, feeling that his persistent offensive aying off. However, in a moment of exge, he suddenly saw a faint smile on Kyle's cold face.

  He's actually smiling.

  Cold sweat dripped down Steve's forehead. But at this point, they were already entangled in close-quarters bat and couldn't stop their ongoing attacks; they could only grit their teeth and tiil the end.

  "You finally realized it, huh?"

  Kyle maintained a smile at the er of his mouth. Steve really uood him well, knowing that he excelled in offense pared to defense. So he had desperately strengthened his own offeo prevent Kyle from ung an attack.

  "Unfortunately, you don't uand that by doing so, yiving up your natural defensive advantage." Kyle shook his head lightly, and the defensive posture of his hands a suddenly ged, transf him from a defeao an aggressive one—

  terattabat!

  Endurance boxing!

  Military boxing teiques! Grappling!

  …

  Kyle began to smoothly switch between over a dozen offensive bat moves and Steve's face turned pale, Kyle's fighting skills were ging too quickly.

  In a st-ditch effort to switch from offeo defeeve was relentlessly struck by a series of punches and kicks, which made him uo muster the strength to terattack or defend.

  "Let me show you what real offense looks like!" Kyle smiled with a cold expression on his face as he firmly suppressed Steve, and with a slight gust of wind, his puruck mercilessly, leaving him no room for resistance.

  Steve forced a bitter smile and found himself in a passive position, with his hands proteg his face, being treated uniterally as a pung bag.

  "What… what exactly happened?"

  "Just a moment ago, Sed Lieutenant Kyle was being suppressed, and now he's hanging Captain Steve up for a beating?"

  "I don't uaher…"

  The watg Ameri soldiers erupted into a otion and plex gazes fixed on the dramatic se unfolding in the tral area.

  "Soldiers, this is what happens when you don't work hard to learn fighting skills." A voice came from outside the crowd of soldiers, and some turo see Sed Lieutenant Joseph, dressed in military uniform, who had somehow bee part of the audience.

  Joseph watched the two fighters while speaking, "Steve's fighting skills are far inferior to Kyle's— if Steve has about five fighting skills, then Kyle already has fifteen."

  At this point, Joseph couldn't help but ugh and admit, "This kid truly is a monster among monsters!"

  "Get up!"

  In the tral area, Kyle threw a straight punch with all his strength that ly and decisively hit Steve's abdomen, sending him flying.

  Steve let out a pained grunt as his shield, scraping the ground, slid beh him until it barely came to a stop among the surrounding soldiers.

  "Admit defeat, Steve. There's still a signifit gap between us, and if you were an enemy, you would be dead ihan fifty rounds." Kyle spoke coldly while panting heavily, his gaze fixed on the fallen Steve.

  Physically, the two of them were evenly matched.

  But even though Kyle couldn't use excessively lethal teiques, his strength still overwhelmed Steve. As Joseph had said, their bat skills were worlds apart!

  Steve khe fighting skills that Kyle knew, but the reverse wasn't necessarily true.

  Of course, it wasn't Steve's fault. Even with his ability to learn quickly, he still o rely on a great deal of energy to study and master them, along with practical bat experience.

  Kyle, oher hand, was different. There was no need for him to study them; he simply utilized Card Extrag Ability. It was a bit like the feeling of helplessness when an ordinary member entered a pyer who was using cheats in an online game.

  "I haven't…," Steve struggled to get up from the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood. With determination, he said, "I haven't given up yet. I keep fighting like this for another day!"

  "Suit yourself." Kyle shrugged and was about to tinue his attack when Steve's move caused him to reveal a slightly surprised expression.

  It turned out that Steve had strapped his Adamantium Shield onto his left hand.

  "That's more like it; otherwise, it would be to." Kyle smiled and suddenly burst forward with increased speed.

  This time, Steve didn't charge head-on but calmly lifted his shield, watg as Kyle charged toward him. Suddenly, he swung his left hand forward with force, ung the shield as a ranged projectile—

  He had actually used the shield as a throwing on!

  Kyle's pupils tracted as he watched the shield approag him. He quickly raised his right fist to collide with it.

  While he mao block the shield, with a sharp sound, the shield, resembling a b, folded ba its inal dire.

  "Oh no, this shield—"

  Kyle realized what was happening and tried to retreat. But it was too te; Steve had already leaped towards him from above, catg the returning shield with his left hand and bringing it crashing down from above.

  In a hurry, Kyle could only use his elbow to strike the shield, but the force of the blow was pletely absorbed.

  At the same time, Steve's shield strike tinued forcefully, instantly pushing Kyle's body down, and f him to kneel on one ko support himself. Even the pacted earth beh him formed a noticeable depression.

  This was the first time Kyle faced the properties of the Adamantium Shield, and he suffered a major setback.

  The vibranium po of the shield seemed to pletely absorb any kiiergy! As long as an attaded on the shield's surface, it would be forced to MISS!
