Title: Start of Battle
....
Tyrannical, brazen and arrogant.
This was the impression Monoshiki gave people. His tyranny could be seen when he directly slayed a devil expert because the other party called him out. His arrogance and brazen character could be seen in the contempt he had for everyone else.
In this place, he had only one opponent - Shun.
As for the countless other devil experts here, none of them were qualified to be his opponent.
He closed his eyes, disregarding everything in his surroundings. No matter how the other experts fought, they had nothing to do with him. He only needed to fight the last battle.
For the strongest characters, their battle would naturally be at the last. That, was the pride of the strong.
Many people turned to Shun. This character who was deemed by Monoshiki as his opponent, what would his strength be like?
Knal's eyes gleamed with sharpness. He cast a deep glance at Monoshiki. To Monoshiki, the geniuses of the Fallen God Region weren't even worthy of a single mention.
Did he only have Shun in his eyes? What sort of person was Shun exactly?
Old Charl also stared at the two of them. He exchanged blows with Shun before and he understood that he wasn't a character good to antagonize.
However at this moment, he discovered that Monoshiki was even more terrifying. If he wanted to gain the devil emperor's favor by entering the top three, these two people would undoubtedly be his greatest obstacles.
"Since he is so arrogant, why don't we join forces to kill him?" The masked voice rang out again. Nobody knew who it was that spoke, but the voice had was like the wind fanning flames.
Several devil experts glanced at Monoshiki. If they could kill him, that would definitely be an excellent choice. They felt desire rising in their hearts.
"Who will join me?" At this moment, a powerful expert spoke. A blood-colored gigantic axe could be seen resting on his shoulder as he stared at Monoshiki.
"I've never met someone so brazen before in my life. Since he wants an early death, let's grant that to him." A sinister and cold voice rang out as another expert joined in.
With these two leading the way, in just a few moments, violent auras gushed forth from all around. These people then stepped out, moving towards the direction of Monoshiki, and on their way over, there were even more experts joining in.
Very swiftly, over ten devil expert were in this group, they didn't intend to give Monoshiki any chance to survive at all.
"A bunch of worms wanting to kill me? Are you all tired of living?" Monoshiki's eyes were still closed as his voice was filled with overwhelming disdain.
The tone of his voice completely enraged the group, as their auras started rising up.
"Since you want to be in the limelight, be prepared to endure the strongest retaliation." A devil expert sneered coldly.
Only to see Knal who was standing quietly at the side suddenly moved.
He shot forward like a streak of lightning and after that, to the astonishment of the crowd, Knal, one of the strongest individuals on the Devil Rankings actually stopped in front of Monoshiki.
However, he wasn't there to deal with him. It was like he was there to guard him.
An expert on the level of Knal was actually willing to guard Monoshiki?
"Knal, how far have you fallen?" The killing intent of a devil expeprt surged up.
"A bunch of worms looking to die." Monoshiki opened his eyes.
When the experts in the group rushed at him, his spatial domain opened up, enveloping the space around him in an instant.
"In the face of absolute strength, what use are numbers?" Monoshiki roared. After which, the spatial light behind him shot out towards one of the enemies, bringing with it a burst of destructive might. When the light landed, the person died instantly.
Knal glanced over, feeling his heart trembling. Seems like Monoshiki was so strong that he didn't even need to interfere.
Even if he was ganged up by people, there was no need to worry for him at all.
"Bzz~" Only to see someone taking out a powerful weapon. The other experts acted as well, but Monoshik merely laughed coldly.
They wanted to use weapons?
These experts from the Fallen God Region, even if they took out weapons, would they be able to compare to Monoshiki, this supreme genius from the younger generation of the Nine-Emperors Empire?
After which, a circular wheel manifested, as a spatial light screen appeared behind him.
The wheel radiated intense light as it flooded the space here with boundless emperor might.
Streams of light shot towards his opponents, penetrating through them in an instant.
For those who were hit by the light, all of them died right away, falling from the sky.
They didn't even have the time to activate the power of their weapons.
"Wha…"
Everyone was speechless. How would they be able to kill Monoshiki?
It was fine if they didn't take out weapons. Once they took out weapons, under the might of their opponent, it was an absolute suppression.
"A weapon that formed a resonance with his domain technique?" Shun's eyes flickered. Monoshiki's weapon was like the domain technique he just unleashed.
Seems like the circular wheel was a supreme artifact specially crafted for Monoshiki by the Nine-Emperors Empire. At the instant that weapon unleashed its power, it was so strong that it caused the hearts of everyone to shudder.
As Shun was spectating, he also discovered that quite a few devil experts were advancing towards him with cold looks on their faces.
"Seems like it isn't a good thing to be too dazzling." Shun calmly spoke. Clearly, that single sentence spoken by Monoshiki, has also implicated him into this.
There was a limit to the number of people the devil emperor would bestow his favor on. In that case, only by joining forces to kill these likely candidates, would the others have a chance. This was also why the earlier group wanted to kill Monoshiki. Now, these people also had the same thought in mind as they advanced towards Shun.
Shun frowned, he had always kept a low-profile because he wanted to avoid the over-consumption of his energy reserves in large-scale battles like this. After all, his chakra level wasn't like Monoshiki's who was already at the peak of Chakra sea.
Also, over reliance on his dimension may actually lead to being a crutch in the future.
However, since there were people who wanted to kill him, the only solution was for him to kill enough until they stopped from fear.
"Let me handle them." Ria spoke. Da nodded respectfully, after, this was his lords woman.
At the same time, quite a few other experts from different directions also walked out.
"Kill them all." Shun calmly spoke.
The sound of sword humming filled the air, the demon sword in his hand radiated forth with an extremely sharp sword light.
He stood at his original location unmoving but the power of his demon sword was already activated.
Those devil experts erupted forth with devil might, unleashing powerful attacks.
Da guarded the front of Shun. With a thunderous roar, his form expanded as the ape phantom appeared again, enduring the attacks.
At the same time, the finger strikes of Ria danced wildly in the air, shooting streaks of air blades that could cut through everything.
At the same time, Ria's silhouette vanished as numerous shadows appeared in her place.
These shadows rushed towards the enemy group and as they slashed out, tens of filaments of spatial light illuminated the entire area.
Those devil experts snorted and unleashed their own tyrannical attacks. However at this moment, they only saw some among their numbers mysterious dying.
The other devil experts froze. Ria's shadows were actually capable of attack. Not only that, the strength of each shadow was extremely strong as well.
"Cloning technique?" The crowd stared at Ria.
The domain energy fluctuations from her were extremely terrifying as her clones hindered the enemies.
"Let my clones obstruct them, you guys finish them off." Ria spoke to the other acquaintance of Shun.
Shun sensed the strength of these people. The light from his demon sword gradually dimmed.
Even if the devil experts here grouped up, there was really no need for him to act. He should just prepare for his battle against Monoshiki.
"Let's fight." A cold voice rang out. In the other areas, there were experts who unleashed attacks at the people beside them. It was pointless to wait any longer.
"They are allies of Monoshiki." Shun glanced at the person who incited the battle.
Seems like Monoshiki's clan memeners wanted to end this as quick as they can.
Even Knal also acted, exterminating the weaker experts here.
Old Charl brandished his saber and waltzed right into the battlefield. With every flash of light, his saber would cleave someone apart.
Very swiftly, this place was completely overrun by chaos. This battlefield was destined to be the burial grounds for the weak. The death rate was extremely high.
As more and more battles erupted, the spatial light screen behind Monoshiki dissipated. He stood with his hands behind his back and quietly observed the other battles erupting. It felt as though everything here had nothing to do with him.
He knew that his own battle would soon begin.
Shun's gaze shot through the crowd, staring in the direction of Monoshiki. Both their gazes met in mid-air. However, neither of them moved, as though they were both waiting for a perfect opportunity.
....
"Old Kan, the young man you regard so highly seems to have treated that other young man as his opponent." The devil emperor spoke to the Old Kan.
"The victor will definitely be Monoshiki." Old man Kan calmly stated.
"Haha, you are still so confident with regards to him. In that case, I want to watch this battle properly." The devil emperor laughed.
The other spectators all had gleams of sharpness in their eyes.
They suddenly had a ridiculous thought. It felt like this entire battle event was orchestrated just for the show-down of these two characters!

Note: Both devil and normal weapons will be classified under divine weapons.
Don't forget the stones guys. Extra chapters depending on which position I reach at the end of the week.
