ʼAdding the mini blackhole would be an overkill... I should just leave things this way,ʼ Gustav thought as his arms buldged with intensity, showing his muscular outlines through his suit.

On his hands, silvery scales appeared as his entire figure oozed unprecendented energy.

The whole weapon was covered in a milky glow as he raised it higher...

Gustavʼs face turned serious, as the grounds trembled as the rivers bubbled before he swung downwards with force...

Twwwwhioooosshhhhhhhhhhh~

A massive crescent shaped Crimson arc blasted forward from the sword as the weapon descended in a vertical format.

The ground from his position to seven rivers ahead was split open in an instant as the destructive crescent shaped arc traveled millions of feet.

Chatter! Chatter! Chatter!

Voices of disbelief and astonishment reverberated across the whole arena, as the grounds beneath the rivers split as well.

[Hover Has Been Activated]

Gustavʼs figure floated above the ground as everywhere around him caved in.

”Oh shiit!” E.E and the others also jumped backwards as the grounds kept sinking.

zhooonn~

He quickly opened a vortex and everyone jumped in. They reappeared ten thousand feet behind their initial position and looked forward to see that the grounds had sunked in.

”That might have been too much,” Angy muttered as they looked upwards at the screen which displayed Gustav.

The footage showing Gustav zoomed out to display the destruction around and everyoneʼs jaws nearly dropped to the ground.

”Thatʼs... did he just clear eight rivers in one go?” On the Ghundabaults side, they also had shocked looks as they stared at the screens.

It was not news that the further an attack traveled, the weaker it got so the chances of clearing further rivers in one strike was lower. What they had just witnessed proved how powerful the strike was.

”This is your definition of weak?” Gustav asked the system while slightly raising the sword.

(”Yes... you have no idea how lucky we are,”) The system replied internally.

Gustav; ”...”

Navira who had already gone far ahead of Gustav was stupefied as she noticed he had cleared past the eight river in one go.

She had just finished spliting the seventh river on her side and was moving towards the eight but Gustavʼs current performance was a blow to her morale.

”I wonʼt lose,” She assured herself as she headed for the eight river.

On another part of the arena where a battle between two powerful planets was ongoing, they were currently at the last bout that would decide the winner between them.

Unfortunately, despite the fact that both teams sent out their most powerful representative for the final bout, one happened to be much stronger than the other.

”Captain Irand is going to use it now,” On the left side, one of the teammates who had a dark cloth wrapped around his figure from head to toe voiced out.

”The Lorks have lost then...” Another one who looked similar, but with a more scrawny build stated.

Up ahead both planets representatives were currently at their ninth river, about to attack.

On the left, one stood in place with dark eyes and cloth covering the rest of his head. He had a shadowy cloak strapped to his neck which kept swimming in the wind as energy surrounded the staff in his grasp.

On the other side a reddish figure with only eyes and black streaks across his body, held onto a double edged sword as he also prepared to unleash a mighty attack.

The ninth river couldnʼt even be called a river anymore, it was practically a small ocean.

After a couple of moments, the reddish figure had built up a massive amount of energy and swung his double edged blad sideways. Winds howled as it carried a massive pressure that sliced towards the tenth river.

Claaaannnkkkkkk~

It met with resistance as the entire river quaked like a solid object but it suddenly built in strength and sliced through the ninth river.

Thrrrrihhhhhhh!

Cheers! Cheers! Cheers! Cheers!

The loud sound of cheers rang out as this person happened to be the first participant to cut through the ninth river.

The crowd was going bunkers at the moment, meanwhile...

The dark figure on the other side, kept increasing in presence as he arched his arm backwards with his staff before thrusting forward with intensity...

Boooooommm~

A destructive force bursted forth from his staff, slamming into the ninth river ahead and piercing through it instantly.

Thrrrriihhhhhhhh~

After travelling for millions of feet, the spectators mouths were once again left open as another participant managed to split the ninth river yet again.

-”The participants from Indulus Prime and Xillion might be the most powerful,”

-”Hey you canʼt just judge like that, some didnʼt get to use their full strength because their opponents were not strong enough,”

-”Look! Look! Someone else just split the ninth river too!”

-”Earthʼs captain Crimson,”

-”Look the Ghundabault is about to try too,”

Gustav who had just finished splitting the ninth river without much stress, waited to see if his opponent would be able to do the same.

”Iʼll have to unveil more of my strength if she manages to split it,” Gustav muttered as he rested the tip of his sword on the ground.

”Resistance build...” Navira voiced from her side as she raised her spear before throwing it forward with intensity.

Fwwwhiiiii~

Her first try split half of the ninth river, causing Gustav to relax as he felt he wouldnʼt need to do more.

She tried again and only managed to split a little over half this time.

Navira began building up energy as she prepared to strike again.

Meanwhile on Planet Indulus Prime and Planet Xillion side, both opponents prepared to strike the tenth river which was practically like a sea.

Almost the entire spectators area watched as they conjured strikes using their weapons and attacked at the same time.

Booommm! Boooooom!

Both attacks hit the surface of the tenth river but unfortunately, didnʼt manage to split it even in the slightest.

They both had determined looks as they built up energy once more to at least leave an effect on the tenth river.

Their second strikes bore the same results as they didnʼt manage to split it even in the slightest. The heaviness of the gravitational beams descending upon the tenth river was just too much.

”Captain Irand has no choice but to use it now,” Indulus Prime participants watched in anticipation while the dark cloaked participant lowered his staff.

On Xillion side, ”Fhirus will use that attack now... if he manages to cause even the smallest effect on the tenth river, he wins,” Xillion Captain stated.

Both opponents up ahead began undergoing Transformation.

Fhirus who was the reddish figure went from being bulky to slim as his entire figure glowed with a reddish energy.

Weehiiiiiiiiinnnnnnn~

It blasted forth from his figure spreading across the vicinity. The spectators felt the intensity despite being shielded by the barrier covering the arena.

Fhirus blade turned illusionary as afterimages appeared from his figure while he swung the blade forward.

It sounded like space was being ripped apart as destructive energy blasted forth from the blade towards the river ahead.

At this same moment,  Captain Irand on the other side opened his eyes.

Thoooooooommmmmm~

A wave of darkness suddenly burst forth from his being, causing the skies within the entire arena to darken.  The spectators looked up with expressions of wariness as the darkness from his figure disoriented the entire place including other participants far from his location.

”Strengthen the barrier!” Handler One commander as he witnessed this.

The handlers around him quickly sprang to action.

ʼWe didnʼt expect this year participants to be this powerful,ʼ He thought in awe as he watched.

Captain Irand pushed his staff forward at this point, sending an indomitable force towards the river.

BOOOOOOOMMMMMM!

The Xillions who had been celebrating earlier had looks of shock as the strike split up to half of the river.

Their representative had only managed to split a quarter after his third try.

The entire arena and even the spectators area quaked repeatedly as the residual energy from the strike swept across the place.

Luckily the barrier had been reinforced so everyone was safe from the residual energy.

Cheers! Cheers! Cheers! Cheers!

The crowd was going bunkers once again as Gustav stared upwards with a slight look of suspicion. The skies were already clearing.

He stared back at his teammates position, at a particular person.

”Too familiar,” He muttered before turning back around.

”Oh, she managed to clear the ninth river,” Gustav muttered.

At this point everyone was focused on Planet Indulus Prime and Xillion so only a few were paying attention to Gusyav who was ready to strike the tenth river.

”I guess I donʼt have any choice but to use more strength,” Gustav muttered as he threw a glance at his opponent before stretching his sword forward.

[Combination Has Been Activated]

Gustav began transforming as he took on the full form of combining diffirent mixedbreeds this time.
