The sound of a boulder breaking seemed to mark the start of a short break.
Renard took a few deep breaths as he once again took a fighting stance. As if waiting for that moment, another boulder appeared in front of him.
The young man stared at his target for nearly a minute before throwing out a punch.
He was five meters away from the boulder. And yet, a loud crack echoed inside the room.
On the boulder's surface, a fist size indentation expanded to create a small crater that was at least two-feet wide.
"Too shallow," Renard muttered as white smoke oozed out of his right fist.
After taking another deep breath, the young man released one punch after the other.
The boulder in front of him started to have several cracks in it as the young man continued his barrage of punches a distance away from it.
A minute later, the boulder shattered into pieces as Renard knelt on the ground, panting for breath.
