Despite their advantage in Gear, the opposing team is little better than exhausted. Being mortal in the Divine Realm, there's not much energy here they're actually capable of cultivating, and with exercises and fights every day, they are forced to burn off what little they do collect.
On the other hand, there's an abundance of Death Energy, as nobody here seems to use much of it, and I can also filter a fair bit of the Divine energy, giving me a pleasant glow as my body absorbs it to Reinforce and change itself instead of using to to cultivate. The Mortal realm is very low in Divine Energy, and I've long since used up what Elder Song infused me with, so it almost felt like my body was dehydrated the way it started absorbing energy once I got here.
The referee signals the start of the fight and I launch myself at the four gladiators, keeping to about half speed, which is still more than they can react to. Within seconds they're all down and the referee is staring at me in shock.
