[THE 3RD FIGHT]
Tachibana v.s Kwen, two men, different just like the sides of the coin.
Tachibana Fusakane is a chilled guy, who goes with the flow, possessing a heart that is the opposite of Kwen's one.
Kwen a man who is so impatient does not care for anyone or anything in this world, he would just step-walk on you if he sees your corpse.
"I like strong people, I can feel your powers, it is the 2nd highest power level in the battleground now...".
With a smirk, Kwen continued, "...I think I just hit the jackpot".
Tachibana was wearing a Tanzen, he was taking the mission as entertainment for himself until he saw with his own two eyes, people who can challenge him.
He throw away his Tanzen and started cracking his neck, "I am glad, to be your jackpot, Making people happy-".
As he was talking to Kwen, he stopped, Kwen was already holding the blade on his Neck, how did he get here thought Tachibana to himself, "You are a fast one".
"If I wanted I could have killed you already, but since you have a strong Powerlevel, there must be something you can offer".
[SMIRKED]
"Am I right?".
"I don't know about that one, why don't you stri-"
As soon as Kwen heard those words, he struck once again, but this time not holding back, taking the opportunity to make it feel like a real fight that he had for a long time.
As soon as his blade got closer to Tachibana, a strong wind emerged from him, throwing Kwen at the wall.
[Hits the Wall]
[Collapsed on the ground]
[Coughs]
"Man I haven't even drowned my sword out, are you that weak?", Tachibana started to play with Kwen's mind.
On the ground he looked at Tachibana, with a smirk, body crushed and full of blood, Tachibana thought to himself, "Is this man right in the head?".
Kwen with a clenched fist hit the ground & screamed at Tachibana, "I will show you real torture..."
Kwen clenched his mouth, drawing all the energy he could from the surrounding, Tachibana was just observing as he didn't know what's to come, "Better keep my expectations low, to not get disappointed".
Kwen finished, he opened his palm & looked at Tachibana saying, "Rwbari xwen ( River of Blood )"
From his palm blood emerged, the blood was so much, it was increasing in unimaginable speed, Tachibana thought to himself, "This a suicide, he will die too".
Tachibana understood his intention, trying to turn the area into a sea of Blood, fighting where he can manipulate blood freely, just what Kwen wanted him to think.
Kwen stood up & scream, "Release", the sky was raining blood waterfalls, Tachibana was stunned & felt as if he was cornered, "This man... is insane".
Tachibana tried to escape, started to run to the back, Kwen screamed, "Where are you going?... You are supposed to entertain me".
Kwen touched the blood and generated a spear of blood, then threw it at Tachibana, as the spear crossed all the drops of blood, it sucked the blood close to it, all of it.
Tachibana looked behind as he was running from the drops of blood around him, "Shxt", Tachibana turned around, drew his sword out, gathered a strong force of wind around it & throw it, towards the spear.
The spear of blood & the spear of wind clashed, Tachibana, made the wind cold, so cold it was able to freeze the warm blood and with his powerful Powerlevel, it was enough to Freeze every blood on the ground and even Kwen himself.
Kwen was standing frozen due to him standing on the blood, the area's temperature has lowered real fast.
Kwen was frozen in the down part of his body and damaged because the wall in the upper body
Now that no power supported the blood, the waterfall of the sky, they stopped to emerge.
Kwen was clenching his teeth, from stress, he was screaming, In the Speed of wind Tachibana came before Kwen.
"The far away I got, the more power you used... Right?".
"I also noticed you faking your manipulating power, why do you fake it?"
"is it because you don't have the power to manipulate, I don't should I consider myself lucky or consider you weak".
[PISSED OFF]
Kwen was under the pressure, "If only I had my full power, I would have sliced you to pieces".
"So don't get all fired up soon I will rise again with the king and destroy, I will personally come to your land and destroy it".
"Well, I don't know about that and I have no interest".
"Let's fight again then, maybe when you will come with your king".
As Tachibana said those words, he created a sword of wind, it moves like a vortex or tornado.
Tachibana sliced his front body like an x, "Maybe then you will defeat me with the help of your king".
Kwen was dead before the eyes of Tachibana.
******
[THE 4TH FIGHT]
All the previous fights & the one that is about to happen between Ryouta & Zhyan, almost Happened simultaneously.
Ryouta looked at the Headmaster standing above the walls holding San in his arm and looking at the fights, "Damn old man".
"Dividing us, I would rather go after him".
"I am your opponent now, so you better have your eyes on me", Said Zhyan as she drew her sword.
With an eye, Ryouta looks behind him, "Oh my..."
...
"You see, I... I do not like to fight women".
"I have respect for women so I will just stand her come and pierced my heart that is made of glass".
Ryouta throws away his sword & his clothes, leaving his upper body revealed, zhyan blushes as she sees his cut body, "What the hell are you doing?... We are enemies and not...".
"Not what?... I told you I can't hit a woman"
"My heart doesn't allow me".
"So please end my suffering, I can't hit, cute girls".
[BLUSHES MORE]
Ryouta comes before her, surprising her, Ryouta holds her arm, "Pierce through my heart, be the one who ends my suffering of being single".
Zhyan blushingly, tries to pierce through his heart, only to be more surprised, the sword can not reach the chest, "What is this?".
Zhyan felt as if there is a long space of a thousand years distance, no matter how much she pushed it felt as if the blade was never reaching anything, an empty void.
Ryouta smiled, "You see I said cute girls, not psychopaths who try to revive a beast to take over the world and destroy its peace".
"A girl like you will never reach my heart, Not even in million years".
Zhyan, felt crushed by the words but she did not care, "Girl you came here for another reason and what he said just forget it", thought Zhyan to herself.
Ryouta was a man of patience & wisdom or so he claimed to be, he punched Zhyan, throwing her far away from him, making a clear distance.
"I felt it just now, the old man is sure a threat to send you, my perfect counter"
"You have the ability to control water and with your power level..."
"Normally I have no problem fighting with water users but you who have lived for a long life and all the pieces of information we have on you".
"We know that you can drain the life force of a human, just by being close to them".
"No matter how much space I make between us as long as you are next to me, you can use your spiritual Energy to draw my life force".
"You are a threat, you old hag".
Zhyan slowly stands up on her feet, as Ryouta continues explaining, "Since every living thing is made of water, it is also our life force, by absorbing or manipulating the water in us, we will be doomed before your power".
"It is indeed a deadly Ability".
As Zhyan stood up, she thought to herself, "He does not know I can only create, I can not manipulate water", she looked at him, guard always up, "I must use this to my advantage".
Zhyan, despite the distance, strikes a slash, simultaneously creating water, emerging from it and so strong, the slash could split one in half.
Ryouta raises his hand, he creates a barrier of Space, so the water may never reach him, the slash goes through the space, shocking him, he jumps as high as he can.
"How?, I knew she can drain life force but not use it in a battle".
The slash destroyed everything, that was before it, as the water fell, heat from the water and the ground emerged.
"Hot water...", thought Ryouta to himself, it was a confirmation for him, she can manipulate.
But the truth is, Zhyan put a lot of effort into Generating this water, she kept on Generating water on the water until it warmed enough to be believable.
Ryouta believing his chances is to be low, slash the ground, the ground splits into two parts, a great landslide open.
As the grounds start to part, Zhyan is sinking with the land on it, as Zhyan fell into the underground, she called out, "Ay drnday darya batanya jem mela, dwzhmn legal bena".
Ryouta was watching from the above, "She had a great potential to beat me but I give no time to my enemies".
"I must go to the old man and kill the boy".
On Ryouta's body a rain, dropped, it started to rain as he looked at the sky, it was only raining above him, then he noticed the rain became 1000× stronger and faster.
He felt the pain all over his body, they were salty warm water, with his powers he created a space between him and the water for protection.
[Ahhhhh]
He was screaming in pain when he looked beneath him an enormous water hand came out & caught him, "What the hell is this?".
"Let me go".
"Why can't I use my powers?"
"Help... Guys Help!..."
He kept on screaming, the wounds he got from the rain were painful, the water hand was pushing them and putting even more pain atop of it.
The Water-Hand took him to the underground, the earth shook, putting the split land back together, Zhyan emerged, unharmed fully healed.
"Eh... Eh..."
"I thought I died, thanks mother".
Zhyan looked at the Headmaster with a proud smile, because she managed to beat a real powerful opponent, with a nice plan.
She planned to summon Zarya, a living water entity that only helps the water Manipulator & Generator, so strong whoever he touches can't use their powers anymore, The water-Beast helped her and took Ryouta to torture.
To be able to call Zarya, they must master their power in the sea, Because Zarya is the ocean itself, when it recognises your power then it will be your friend and enemy to your enemies.
Indeed all the suffering of mastering the water through the years come in handy.

The winners directly head to the Headmaster and San, Meer & Zhyan, head there to aid the Headmaster, While Tachibana and Katashi, head there to kill San, their goal were to stop a world war to occur, between the dark king Edgar and the world.
...
Tachibana and Katashi got to the Headmaster, only to see Zhyan and Meer, they were already there and sword in hand looking at them with death stares.
"So our comrades... were defeated".
"It seems so, I mean our mission was a highly ranked one so... death was a possibility in this mission".
Sighs, "I guess so".
**********************
The Headmaster cracked the reality, as he did so, "You two survived bu don't think that you have defeated my students?".
As the reality changed, Kwen & Dang appeared fully unarmed before the headmaster, stunning the Swordsmen.
"How?"
Then, Tachibana stated, "The Oldman has the power to alter reality, if only I had more energy I could have cancelled it out".
"This fight, we must do it dirty or we will die..."
Clarification: when the Oldman cracked the reality, he healed both Kwen and Dang, as if they were never in the fight and brought them before himself.
...
Kwen and Dang stood up, cracking their whole body, then thanked the Headmaster and both attacked, "You thought I would be finished so easily-". Said Kwen.
As they started to change blows, through a Dark gate an unknown man appeared above the clouds, his energy brought fears to them.
Everyone stopped and looked at his aura, it was as if the sky was filled, the unknown man drew out his sword and swung at them.
The slash divided them and brought more attention to him, the Oldman was thinking, about his power level, "Hmm....".
Tachibana told Kwen, "I guess I am the 3rd now".
"Shut up", said Kwen with a pissed off face, then he jumped at him, "Who do you think you?", "Coming here and acting all this cool"
The unknown man kicked him in the Stomach as he was descending, sending him to the ground, "His physical power-".
He made everyone stunned, to knock Kwen unconscious, it takes a lot of power level, they were just thinking how much is it, the pressure was on.
But the one question they were thinking the most on whose side is he and what is his motives, as the unknown sky man looked at Peer, he had San in his hand.
The unknown man flew down to him, the Oldman Peer thought, "You have only around 100,000 power levels more than me".
"I will obliterate you".
[CRACKED THE REALITY]
This time, Peer once again healed Kwen and brought him behind the unknown man, Kwen rear-naked choked him.
The eyes went wide as he tried to come off of his grip, "So cool guy, what's your next move or do you want me to choke you to death".
At the same time as Tachibana and Katashi noticed that the attention was no longer on them, so they tried to take San in a flash and ran away.
[THE REALITY CRACKED]
The end of chapter 7.
