Six figures with powerful auras fell from the sky, positioning themselves in front of Ares.
"Shit, this was my bad omen, 6 against 1," said Ares, looking at everyone present.
"If I'm not mistaken, they are Top 70: Fulgencio Haro, Top 68: Erik Colomer, Top 67: Aurelio Garces, Top 65: Avelina Saez, Top 64: Jacobo Barrio, and Top 63: Asier Bosch," Ares continued.
"Hahahaha, how easy it is to earn a favor from the World Academy of Awakened," mocked Fulgencio.
"6 against 1, boring," added Erik.
"Your great feats end here, Ares," said Aurelio.
"Let's finish this quickly, I don't have all day," Avelina added.
"Be careful," warned Jacobo.
"We have the numerical advantage," affirmed Asier.
"World Academy of Awakened," Ares was surprised.
"I need to see their powers and come up with a plan. It's nearly impossible to leave here unscathed if I'm not careful," Ares thought as he unleashed a hurricane of light rays that destroyed everything in its path, enveloped in its spatial isolation.
The sky lit up with millions of light rays that fell upon the battlefield, destroying everything in their path and creating a spectacular sight in the midst of the night.
"Changing the battlefield to their convenience," said Fulgencio.
"He's not as helpless as we thought," acknowledged Aurelio.
"Don't let your guard down," warned Avelina.
"See, I told you, take it easy," added Jacobo.
"We have to complete the mission, attack with everything you've got," ordered Asier.
Ares drew a spear made of light rays in his right hand.
"I'll take the front line to absorb as much of their attacks as possible and make it easier for you to attack," said Fulgencio, disappearing from his position and swiftly appearing in another spot, running towards Ares.
"I'll heal you from the back, but you have to cover me well," said Erik.
"I won't let them get close," added Aurelio as he released a grayish repulsion field.
"I'll cover your backs from a distance," said Avelina.
"Gravitational field," said Jacobo as he released another dark grayish aura that merged with Aurelio's repulsion field, combining into a more powerful one that held the best abilities of each.
"I'll keep a close eye on you with my animal," said Asier as a massive 5-meter tall white tiger, emanating a strong white aura and roaring, appeared.
The battle was about to begin. Ares was clearly outnumbered, but his skill with the spear and his cunning might be enough to defeat his adversaries.
Ares felt an incredible pressure as he found himself on the battlefield.
"Damn it, they've unleashed two force fields that block my path, and one of them is gravitational. There's a melee fighter, another one using animal control, and a strong tiger who's also a close-range combatant. In addition, there are two long-range fighters at the back," Ares thought.
Suddenly, the Top 70 appeared behind Ares at great speed, attempting to strike him.
Fulgencio shouted. "This will be your grave, Ares!"
Both fighters exchanged a flurry of blows, but Fulgencio realized that Ares was incredibly fast and couldn't land a hit on him.
Jacobo decided to intervene and used his gravitational field to increase Ares' weight and restrict his mobility.
"Damn it, I feel so heavy. They had to use gravity to give me more weight. I have to attack quickly," thought Ares.
With his incredible speed, Ares disappeared from his position and appeared behind the Top 70, fiercely attacking his weak points.
Fulgencio shouted, "He's behind you! He's too fast."
Ares unleashed his devastating assault against the Top 70, using his speed and light to strike with great force.
But Avelina, unwilling to stand idly by, unleashed her powerful Sonic Cry against him.
The Top 67 also joined the fight, attacking Ares with a mighty roar that left a trail of destruction in its wake. Ares skillfully dodged their attacks, disappearing before the tiger could strike him with its sharp claws.
However, before Ares could counterattack, the tiger approached, aiming its claws directly at him. Ares realized he was in a tight spot and quickly drew his Spear of Sin to block the attack. With a swift and precise movement, he managed to slice through the tiger's body, thwarting the attack.
Asier urges White to dodge the next attack, while Aurelio uses his Repulsion Field to send Ares flying backward, crashing into several buildings.
Although the tiger suffers a gash on its chest, Aurelio is relieved that it's not a fatal wound.
Erik uses his Healing power to tend to the tiger's wound, but the large gash is still visible on its body.
Fulgencio sees his opportunity and runs towards Ares.
Avelina unleashes another Sonic Cry in his direction.
Ares pulls the debris off his body and, without hesitation, swings his spear, releasing a burst of lightning that heads towards Avelina's attacks.
The impact creates a massive explosion, marking the end of the intense battle.
Fulgencio laughs heartily before launching an attack. "HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, what an opening! It's time to unleash the absorbed power!"
His right arm starts growing in size and strength, causing Ares to step back.
"I can't dodge it. I have to protect myself," said Ares, raising his spear to shield himself from the powerful attack of the Top 75.
"Hehehehe, how easy it is to create a weakness in your opponent," Jacobo joked as he created gravitational blades that headed towards Ares.
"Repulsion!" exclaimed Aurelio, sending Ares towards Fulgencio's attack.
"Damn it, the repulsion in his field pulls me towards the attack, and in the gravity field, I can barely move with ease," muttered Ares as he received the Top 70's attack and was thrown back at high speed.
"Argh!... (Light Shield)," exclaimed Ares, creating a shield to protect himself from the attacks that destroyed several buildings and launched him far away.
Ares stood up, blood dripping from his wounds. "Argh... my back. The two attacks left deep and visible wounds. It's going to take me a while to heal. This doesn't look good," he said, feeling his hands numb.
"I can't go on like this. I have to find a way to defeat them all at once. But first, I have to deal with their healer," thought Ares before disappearing from the scene.
"Let's try this new technique: True Illusion," he said to himself as he created a clone of himself using beams of light to create illusions.
Ares' clone appeared behind Erik, aiming his spear to decapitate him.
But Aurelio intervened quickly. "Watch out... repulsion field!"
The repulsion field pushed Ares back, preventing the strike from reaching his opponent. Meanwhile, the Top 70 and the tiger moved in to attack him.
"You move quite fast," Fulgencio said, impressed by Ares' speed.
The tiger growled menacingly while Ares showed a wicked smile.
Jacobo grew concerned and said, "Be careful!"
Avelina let out a desperate cry. Several sonic cries were launched towards Ares, but he laughed and said, "Too late..."
