Dominating

5…4…3…2….1, Fight! 

Both men did not charge blindly at each other, but rather closed the gap between each other cautiously. 

[ Energy Blast ] 

Max took the initiative to make the first move as he used energy blast to launch a mid-ranged attack. 

Eden lunged to his left to avoid the blast but Max took the opportunity to close in the gap between the two of them as he used [ Overhead Slash ] to try and hit Eden on his temple. 

*SHINGGG* 

Eden had to use both his swords to block Max's attack as the sheer power behind Max's strike made him buckle to one knee.

A kick straight to his chest forced Eden to do a backroll as he lost the first chunk of his HP before staggering back to his feet. 

" Max draws the first blood, Eden seems to struggle with his superior power" the commentator announced as the earthlings gave this exchange their roaring approval.
