The onlookers also knew the gap between Isabella Lindsey and Bertha Marley, with the former still accumulating experience in the regular class and the latter already advancing to the ancient martial arts class. There was simply no comparing the two.
The crowd started discussing again:
"Did you hear? Bertha Marley chose the Meteor Fist in the ancient martial arts class."
"No wonder she wanted to challenge Isabella Lindsey."
"That's right. Once you practice the Meteor Fist to the first level, it's many times more powerful than a normal person's fist."
"So, Isabella Lindsey is bound to lose."
"I wonder what Bertha Marley will make Isabella Lindsey do after she wins..."
...
Seeing Obby Stuart's timidity and hearing the crowd's firm belief in her own victory brought Bertha Marley great joy.
She deliberately waited until the crowd's discussion quietened down before she slowly said, "Isabella Lindsey, if you lose, you must call me 'big sister!'"
"Is that all?"
