CHAPTER 16 SKY CRASH

As soon as Kai's trio released their Martial Souls, they charge at their opponent in full speed. Ria from above, Sera from ground and Kai flying between them. Their opponents also charged forward.

When they are just few meters away, Axel and Kale is read to attack Sera when she suddenly jumped upward and Kai catch her from behind at the same time Sera's ice spear shine and large wave of ice mist released from the spear and engulf the area before her 'Ice Tide'.

A blue halo is also released from Kai that increased the both density and area of ice tide 'Water Blessing'.

Axel and Kale missed their target because of the mist. Axel swing his Axe furiously and number of black streaks of light are released in attempt to hurt his opponents or at least dispel the mist,

But Kai's duo already has changed their target to Kale who is trying to run out of the thick ice mist.

Sera's spear shine again and numbers of ice spikes with the increase of both ice tide and water blessing was released and charge at Kale whose body shines with black light as his speed become much faster and he was able to dodge most of the ice spikes but is again trapped in the ice mist.

Meanwhile Ria covered in purple lightning is fighting against Rine who is also covered in black light and both are using daggers.

In this fight Ria is in a little disadvantage as her opponent is a rank higher than her and even has one more soul ring but her superior combat skills make up for that and they are currently in a stalemate.

At this moment Kai let Sera down while also guard her against axel's wild attacks coming from behind, Sera charge at Kale who is still struggling with the pain of ice spikes, she stab multiple times on Kale with her spear which also released a cold radiance making her opponent numb.

First few stabs were unidirectional but when Sera stab in middle towards Kale's torso, all the cold spear radiance left behind from previous stabs converge toward her spear tip. Kale feel a huge threath from the spear but he is still numb and unable to dodge 'Eternal spear Thrust'.

There is not only difference of four rank between them but also a big difference in their Martial Souls and abilities, Kale is definitely is not Sera's match even if his cultivation was little higher.

At the moment before the spear hit kale, a shadow appear behind him and take him out of the fight. It was Bruce, he interface the moment he feel that kale is unable to resist and his action means kale is eliminated from the match.

At this moment Kai who has engaged Axel all this time also have a change in his fighting style, he retreat as a cyan blue sphere start to form between his palm. He continuously changes his direction while dodging Axel's attacks, then he suddenly throw the cyanblue spher.

Axel was ready to defense against it but instead of him Kai throw the sphere toward Rine who is currently facing Ria's lightning strike thus was unable to dodge and choose to face the sphere head on. Black light converge on his dagger as he made a cross with it and cross shape streacks of black light hit the sphere at point blank range.

The sphere is indeed destroyed by the light streaks but what come out of is a strong whirlwind 'Wind Turbulence', the move render Rine unable to fly as he fall down on the battle stage struggling with the wind turbulence, then Kai also use aqua blast which completely wet Rine.

Ria seize this opportunity and attack already struggling Rine a combo strike of completely charge lightning shock and lightning strike, because of been wet it hit him even harder.

Axel also didn't stood idle, as soon as Kai attacked Rine he also charge at Kai, he held the Axe above his head as his whole body is engulfed in darkness and his speed rise, the axe in his hand also grow twice as big as before.

At this moment Axel is completely exploded with all of his abilities which also includes 'target lock' and Kai who also has same cultivation as him feel unable to dodge.

It seems that both Kai and Rine might be eliminate at the same time when suddenly all the ice mist moved becoming a trail for a shinny blue figure rushing out of it with equally bright ice spear in her hand and hit Axel from the left, indeed it was Sera.

Her interference didn't completely stopped Axel's all out attack but still able to change his path and dispel the target lock. Kai also move at the same time, if he only rely on his team for his protection then he don't deserve to be their leader.

All three of his white soul rings shine brightly as a cyan color halo released from him and land on Axel, suddenly very strong pressure form on Axel that furiously slam him down on the ground with massive force, this is the skill his mother create after inspired by his father's fighting style 'Sky Crash'.

With this their fight end, while kale is already eliminated and both Rine and Axel is completely unable to resist three of them. It sounds long but all of this just happen in few minutes.

This fight created a ruckus in group D as these two teams are actually the strongest in the group and only one with a soul fighter, other teams are entirely composed of soul trainees and it is already clear who is going to be the semifinalist among them.

........

As Kai has expected their is no other strong teams in their group. Round Robin section finished in just two days and they smoothly defeated all the teams in their group.

And not only they were like this but all of the semifinalist have the same faith, after all a strong person makes team with another strong person and in every strong team is actually divided into different groups to make the semifinals most interesting.
