David and Sam stood facing each other in the center of the battle ring, both waiting for the referee's signal to start the fight. During this tense moment, they carefully observed one another.
'I don't know if my power level matches David's, or if I can even keep up with him,'
Sam thought.
'I just hope my performance is enough to catch the attention of those powerhouses.'
Sam knew that his chances of defeating David were slim. Since winning was unlikely, he decided to use this match to showcase his skills. For now, that was his only goal.
He wasn't certain about David's actual power. If he had more time to prepare, perhaps he would be confident in winning, but at this moment, he lacked that assurance.
On the other hand, David was also closely observing Sam, trying to gauge his strength. One thing he was sure of—compared to any of his previous opponents, Sam was far stronger.
