Chapter 308: The Competition-3.
Athan had tried to use his Elemental Matrix as he had the connection with the source dimension. Still, the primal essence was simply not worth mentioning here. It was too weak to be used.
The thing was, His typical elements can only be activated through primal essence and not chaos essence as he had already tried to do that.
But, He had also made some plans to make use of his Elemental Matrix. For that, He first needed to finish training in the Lightning Dust of Yellow Hell essence order method.
He could use wind law energy and create a pair of wings, but they were suppressed here, and he could barely fly with it. It was simply not possible to use them in combat against these people. Using primal essence to fight against people who used chaos essence and controlled the order force was a fool's wish to die.
" Attack him while he is still in the air. "
Athan saw the four of them hurling attacks once again while he was in the air.
He could not fly freely here as he either needed a technique for it or reach the Tier-3 order base.
The wings made from wind law energy were weaker, and they can't help him dodge the attacks, so he had only one choice left.
Since he was still far from them, He timely released the skyline blows from his gloves to negate the two attacks and let the other two attacks hit him.
Of course, He defended himself with the abyssal darkness inside his body while still keeping up with the act of getting severely injured by their attacks.
One attack hit his abdomen and another on his right shoulder.
*Blerrgh....*
He puked out a mouthful of blood for the first time with a gleam in his eyes. He also let his shoulder break on purpose, as now it looked like he could not use his entire right arm anymore. He kept up the act to make them believe that he was really injured this time.
He had seen the power of celesti and Shish, so he knew that these four idiots were not as strong as them, but from his guess, they should be between the sixth stage to the eighth stage in the Tier-1 order base.
Drizzly had taught him how to gauge that. These chaotic powers also have a type of pressure that they release. The pressure of chaotic powers used by Celesti and Shish was stronger than these four people and sensing this pressure allowed him to tell how strong they were, not precisely but just roughly.
The five minutes passed, and the competition ground started to shrink. The ground began to fall from its borders as if a deep gorge formed, and each second, the gorge increased.
People started to fight desperately because the speed of ground shrinking was not slow.
Athan estimated that it would take roughly one and a half minutes before the ground shrinking reached his location.
The other four also knew that as they looked at Athan while gritting their teeth.
" We can do it! He is really injured this time. Attack and don't hold back. "
They started hurling attacks again but with less frequency. It was because if they continued to attack frequently, they would run out of order force.
Even without order force, they could use their chaotic essence power by consuming chaos essence. Still, it was not as powerful as the techniques.
They started to release their chaotic essence power more and order techniques less.
Since they were in a higher Tier-1 order base, Their chaotic essence power was also powerful.
Athan's lightning dust was at level 3. If he used it against their chaotic essence power, His lightning dust would lose against their level 6 to level 8 chaotic essence power.
So all he did was to take on their attack and dodge.
He only used a very small amount of abyssal darkness every time he was going to take on their attacks, just so that he would not be seriously injured, as he was fine with superficial and moderate injuries.
' Thiry second...I should start counterattacking. ' Thinking of this, Athan finally started his barrage of attacks.
He saved his order force until now just so that he could constantly attack them at the end.
Now, they need to sparingly use their energy while Athan could freely attack them in the last thirty seconds.
He started releasing Skyline blows from his gloves, both to negate the incoming techniques and attack them.
He kept ten meters distance from them to trigger the power of his gloves, Smitend Ragoir.
The four of them started to feel pressure despite being stronger than Athan because they had to use their powers to defend these homing skyline blows as dodging didn't work against it.
Because of that, they became worried and started to feel anxious. They also began to lose focus as they also knew that ground shrinking was arriving here soon.
Thirty seconds was how much? Well, Not much at all in the heat of battle.
Athan didn't hold back, and in these thirty seconds, he continuously attacked and consumed ninety percent of his order force reserve.
' Damn DAMN DAMNN IT! ' El Bonzel cursed inside his head and looked at Athan. Seeing the faint grin on Athan with his bloodied appearance made him tremble involuntarily.
' He endured those much of our attacks just for this ending? Fuck! He definitely has some means of defending. Otherwise, he can't endure those many attacks. Damn bastard played us till the end. '
He was regretting not holding back. Seeing that Athan was previously on the verge of losing, He didn't hold back and this resulted in his current situation.
Athan's right shoulder was back to normal and he couldn't wrap his head around as to why his shoulder was quickly healed.
" Aaaaaaa...."
The ground shrinking neared, and Athan's one Skyline blow hit the legs of one of the four people who attacked him, and he directly fell down while screaming.
The other three hurridly started to run forward, and one of them was hit by Athan's Skyline blow while nearing. But he realized that the attack of this skyline blow was not as strong as before.
This one person was the same one who first pointed out that something was wrong with Athan.
" EVERYONE! Stay close to him. His attacks might injure us, but they are not as strong if we stay near him. "
Hearing this, El Bonzel and the other guy desperately ran towards Athan.
They sparingly used their energy, so their defense was not strong, but with it, they could easily block Athan's Skyline blows that were not empowered by the gloves. Seeing that their friend, Uorik was right. They felt grateful.
Athan laughed and paused his attacks before clapping, " Good job realizing it. But...It's too late. "
This was also one of his reason. If he purposefully distanced themselves early and then used his Skyline blow, There was a chance that they would realize his glove's effect.
That's why he had them sent him flying, and then, he each time used skyline blows precisely such that they would only hit at the ten-meter distance.
This ten-meter distance's range of his gloves was one meter. It means that the effect would trigger as long as he hit them between the tenth meter and eleven meters.
For the final attacks, He turned some milky white aura into order force before releasing two large skyline blows.
*Shuaa....Shuaaa...*
*BOOM...*
Two more hit by the big skyline blows and fell into the deep gorge, eliminated.
But just as Athan was going to attack the last one, who was none other than Uorik, The ground stopped shrinking.
" Congratulations to the five hundred survivors! The second round is over. "
Uorik slumped to the ground and looked at Athan with fear in his eyes, ' He is weaker than us strength-wise....but..'
