Atlanti didn't stop when she saw her attack absorbed like it was nothing more than sunlight, his words reminding her what she'd come to understand pretty quickly. Birthright didn't matter if she wouldn't push for it.
She turned in the direction of her extended arm, intent on locating her opponent and preventing an attack, but Limax was better. The motion leaves her to be struck along the neck. Atlanti let out a cry of pain and worked to stay on her feet.
She turns to face him properly, using the motion of the turn to kick him in the chest.

The kick landed in his chest and caused him to grunt as air was forced out of his lungs. However, his hands would move to grab onto her leg and he'd push back with it, lifting the leg up further as he did to attempt to knock her down to her back in one fluid motion!

The flip is successful! The air rushed from Atlanti's lungs as she connected with the floor, starts dotting her vision once again as she found herself in a familiar position. She tucked her knees and rolled back onto her feet, kicking at Limaax's knee before actually standing.

He hopped back lightly from the kick at his knee. Bringing a hand out and down to fire a blast of Ki energy at her feet. Though it was aimed for the ground to explode the floor in front of her and cause her to back off. He wanted to see how she would react, and more importantly if she would attempt to attack at range again or once more attempt to close the distance between them.

The blast did cause Atlanti to back off, shielding her face with one arm as she stepped back. Bits of rubble burst in all direction, slicing her skin and flying about. Her eyes burned at the burst of energy that light up the area where the floor had been, but her focus was on keeping an eye on Limax.
Rather than attack him from a distance again, she felt she'd had more success at a closer range and stretched her limbs to cover the distance between them. A familiar light blue energy began to glow from her hand as she raised it at Limax, favoring the arm without the injured shoulder.

She opted for a half measure, going in close with her own clawed limbs, but keeping her torso away from danger. It wasn't a bad tactic with her, but she seemed to lack the brutality to use her claws to the fullest. Unless she was holding back on him? He'd pivot to the outside of her arm, letting the Ki blast where he had been standing before grabbing her arm, his claws digging into her flesh as he gripped it tightly. He'd extend his other arm right at her and fire a beam of his own at her.

The Ki blast went without effect, but there was no time to focus on it after; Atlanti knew she had to keep Limax as her primary target or he'd--
He'd do exactly what he did. His claws bit into her skin as he held her in place with his grasp. The Namek tried to twist herself free, efforts renewed as she saw the energy lighting up along his own arm. The only thing she could think to do was get out of range, but held in place as she was, she only had so many options.
She dropped in hopes of dodging, throwing her weight into it in hopes of pulling Limax off balance with her, but the blast still hit. There was a cry of pain, but she couldn't hear it over the ringing in her ears. Why did she keep doing this? She hadn't trained for this her entire life the way he had?
Her body felt like it was on fire the blast hit, her breathing heavy with the force of the attack as well as the use of her own energy. But as long as she could, Atlanti would stand.
It wasn't going to be for long.

The pull was enough to move him slightly, enough that the beam would hit, but not directly. Possibly why she was still standing. But he still held onto her arm. His nails digging deeper into her flesh. And then as sudden as his blast just moments before had been, he'd release his arm.
"That's enough."
He said, allowing her a chance to stand up, get her bearings and take a breath. He didn't want to talk at her while she was unfocused. After she had a moment to mentally and physically regroup however he'd give her another look over.
"You could have blown your arm off to avoid that attack."
She'd be able to grow it back, and she'd probably have taken less damage had she done so. But causing oneself pain was something most people didn't consider. But it was something she should keep in mind given her heritage. It gave them options that other races didn't have to escape danger.

Her breathing came sharp and jagged, the silence of the training room otherwise unbroken as she was given the chance to pull herself together. There was pain - a lot of it, but she'd begun to accept that it would be something she would walk away with. She pushed herself upright after a moment, considering his words with a thoughtful expression that bordered on a frown. She'd thought to get out of the way, sure, but as Limax pointed out, she wasn't using all the options she had at her disposal.
"You're right." She nodded. "I knew it would grow back if I needed it to." She just hadn't thought of herself as being the reason it would need to grow back.
