Zendreyu was confused about all the animosity but the fact that this man dared call out his father and claim that he was a coward or weak was all that needed to be said. "You have me at a loss but at this moment I don't care who you are, I am going to beat the crap out of you, anyone who helps you, your father, your grandfather, and if they still live your Great Grandfather too. I will see you in the ring." Zendreyu had forgotten he was there to search for clues and the tournament was just money for debts and bills.
Zendreyu directly turned and reported to the ringmaster and was properly outfitted for the preliminary fights. It was a form of fighting known as boxing and although Zendreyu had limited knowledge of this method of fighting, his training was sufficient to beat people up.
The three men from House Tilon were flabbergasted as Zendreyu stepped into the ring now in boxer attire. He no longer looked like an old man in baggy comfortable clothes. The referee came to the center of the ring and announced the rules. "NO BLOWS BELOW THE BELT, NO KICKING, NO MAGIC BLASTS!! TRANSFORMATIONS, HEALING SPELLS, AND BODY REINFORCEMENT ARE ALLOWED!! NO EDGED WEAPONS!! NO POISONS, NO SPITTING, NO BITING!! THAT IS ALL, ANYTHING DEEMED AGAINST THESE RULES WILL RESULT IN AUTOMATIC DISQUALIFICATION!! FIGHTERS AT YOUR READY!!"
ZENDREYU AND FENG SHU CAME CENTER RING, the referee gave them one final check for any rule violations before he was satisfied. He then went to a neutral corner and yelled "FIGHT!!!" The referee struck the bell at the same time.
Zendreyu and Feng Shu attacked eachother like wild beasts. If they didn't have to wear gloves there would have been blood flung out from their strikes right off the bat.
They stood toe to toe center ring, Feng Sho and Feng Shin the other two members of House Tilon were slowly growing angrier as discontent settled that their youngest brother could not get an advantage over a Halfbreed broken soldier of the family. As they watched the fight it seemed that Zendreyu was growing stronger. It was as if Zendreyu was remembering how to fight or simply cleaning the rust from his iron body which he used as a stern disciplinary weapon. Every blow Zendreyu took seemed to make him tougher. The battle was fierce, brutal and ended with Feng Shu getting knocked out of the ring. Zendreyu then looked over at Feng Sho and Feng Shin. Zendreyu's eyes said it all, no words were spoken as his eyes said "YOU'RE NEXT!!!"
