Battle

Once they got to the field, Richard immediately chose a space and went to the end of it, while Alex went to the other end.

They were now extremely far from each other about sixty feet at the spot they chose to battle.

Brimming with the intent to battle, Richard uttered "Speed God physique."

Instantly, his body turned blurry. His body generated after-images that seemed to move in every direction, and he was just standing there, still in motion. He did not carry out any action.

Alex's brows furrowed, "He has awakened a bloodline physique? He must be from a powerful family, and it seems like his physique is related to speed" He said inwardly.

Thinking to here, Alex got ready for a battle he believed would be tough, he had never fought anyone that had a physique, a speed one at that.

"Seven Fortresses" he said, and abruptly, seven large masses of air rushed towards him from far places and gathered around him, they compacted and shaped into several around Alex.

These spheres had windforce energy mixed in and incorporated into them was divineforce energy.

These spheres now felt very hard, almost as hard as granite and began to glow because of the cultivation energy and primal cultivation energy in them.

These spheres enclosed one another as they formed.

In less than twenty seconds, he was wrapped up in seven spheres of solidified air.

"Does he thinks that would protect him from my 'unlimited fist barrage' ability?" Richard smiled smirkingly.

He left Alex to do whatever he wanted to do.

Seeing Alex was ready, he rushed over at a speed no one at his cultivation rank could see, he was extremely fast.

In three seconds, he had gotten to the place where the massive solid spheres of air enveloped Alex's figure.

Boom!

An high-pitched sound rang out as Richard punched the sphere, but it didn't yield, not a crack could be seen in it.

Not stopping, he continued to launch punches at the sphere in hopes of breaking this tough spheres.

In a few seconds, he had sent a little above five hundred super-hard, heavy punches.

The sphere, under rapid attack, cracked, but it quickly healed. The cracks sealed as air was pulled from far and infused into the sphere.

Practicing the wind-element, supernal battle entity-grade methodology had given him the ability to control wind and manipulate it to a degree that was relative to his cultivation stage.

Any other wind methodology can't rank close to this one Alex studied, they would be like comparing fireflies to the sun.

It methods were extremely profound, being a god-grade trinity methodology made any of it technique vastly powerful than all wind-based techniques of any other wind element methodology.

Besides, this ability to summon winds was powered by the divineforce energy that coursed in his energy veins.

People shook at the sight of this.

Such impenetrable defense.

How was Richard going to surmount this rapidly recovering obstacle and this was just the first of the seven spheres.

They were elated it would be a long, mind-blowing battle to watch, both opponents seemed strong and powerful in their own way.

They now had a little respect for Alex.

His combat strength matched his brag and they also wondered where he crawled out from.

After striking the sphere more than two thousand times in just a few minutes, he stopped.

He felt he was only wasting his energy and disgracing himself.

His face was now more ugly. "Is that how you are gonna hide in there like a turtle? You are not someone of honor!" he screamed out.

"Haha!" Alex laughed unbridledly within the spheres.

Using this an opportunity to attack and inflict serious injuries, the spheres of air enclosing Alex's figure detonated outward.

Boom!!

Once the spheres exploded in a single direction at Richard, they swept out like a wave, carrying great power.

If Richard got hit as such close proximity, he would become heavily injured by the large, rampaging currents of air.

This unidirectional blast was powerful because Alex had used large amounts of air to construct each of the spheres, which as he detonated all at once, resulted in terrifying, violent air currents.

Once the blast occurred, Richard vanished from here by employing the foot-based evasion abilities of his physique.

Alex then looked at Richard with a mocking smile, "Who is the turtle now? You ran away like an hare that saw a cheetah. Bro, you are not someone of virtue, you couldn't face the attack head-on like a man but rely on the power of your physique. What a shame" he said.

"What a sharp tongue." a voice boomed out from afar.

Then someone flew over at extreme speed and landed to the ground. This person wore an immaculate white robe, he was dashing but indifference could be seen in his eyes.

"Teacher Xi" Richard greeted.

Teacher Xi nodded and then looked at Alex before saying to Richard with warmness in his speech "Richard don't use your physique abilities. Beat this boy for me" he said briefly then flew away.

Richard's gaze sharpened, "You fight with great honor, right? I want you to see you fight. Everyone, see how I would crush this house of bones." Richard shouted to alert everyone of a great fight.

Without alerting Alex that he was about to attack, he suddenly threw his palm out at Alex.

A massive, green crystalline palm of energy shot towards at Alex at extreme speed.

This palm was formed from a variant aquaforce energy.

Alex too was on guard. Once Richard moved, he moved too.

He quickly punched out and a glowing cyan fist of energy shot out of his fist.

The instant this fist shot out, a large mass of air rushed over and enveloped it.

This mass of air then rapidly compacted shaping into a fist around the energy-fist that Alex sent out.

This fist, formed from solidified air, increased in size and denseness as air continually infused into it unstoppably.

It rapidly grew in size at an exponential rate.

Boom!

Both attacks struck each other and destructive, violent energies discharged from the point of collision in a ripple-like pattern.

The palm shattered into fragments, while the fist shot forward, endlessly increasing in size as masses of air added to it. It was like its growth had no limit.
