Publicly humiliated, Chase was boiling with equal parts fury and hatred.
But with his jaw permanently hinged open and unable to speak a single word, he was forced to swallow his rage and scramble toward the campus infirmary.
Paulina's body was shaking faintly. She had never imagined Rebecca would be this brazen!
Chase had been standing less than an arm's length away from her. What if Rebecca had casually dislocated her jaw too? How utterly humiliated would she have been?
The thought made her blood boil. She cursed the word "bitch" over and over in her head until she finally managed to rein in her emotions.
Yet, beneath the anger, a creeping sense of dread took root.
How on earth was Rebecca such a skilled fighter?
Furthermore, first Magee had repeatedly spoken up for Rebecca, and now even Neely, the campus fitness king, was acting like her loyal subordinate...
If things kept going this way, who would be left to protect her?
With the drama concluded, the crowd of onlookers dispersed.
After what just happened, Neely absolutely insisted on escorting Rebecca back to her dorm.
Seeing the raw sincerity on his face, Rebecca didn't object.
Remembering how incredibly fast and precise her strike had been, Neely's blood pumped with adrenaline. He couldn't help but ask, "Rebecca, what kind of training do you do? How do you practice to get those insane reflexes?"
Rebecca actually took a moment to think about it. "I don't do any specific training. It's just muscle memory."
"..." Had Neely not just witnessed her terrifying skills firsthand, he would have assumed she was blatantly flexing.
He considered himself highly gifted, but he still didn't dare skip a single day of training. It was only through buckets of sweat that he had earned the title of fitness king.
Yet Rebecca, with zero professional training, somehow packed more explosive power than him. It was a pretty crushing realization.
Despite Rebecca's usual aloof demeanor that made her look like she couldn't care less about anything, she picked up on Neely's frustration. Realizing her answer had probably deflated his ego, she quickly spoke up.
