--- Chapter 211 ---
Bayani and Nezha felt the cold sweat run down their backs.
They couldn't even react when Scathach threw her spear and killed Hel on the spot. This absurdness sends a chill on their spines.
"The Legendary Gae Bolg shouldn't get underestimated," Nezha mumbled while using Universal Breathing Technique. "Touki: Great Buddha Fire Manifestation."
A bright white aura covered Nezha's body and enhanced his base strength with a qualitative leap.
Nezha summoned a Fire-Tipped Spear and Wind-Fire Wheels, two of four Divine Weapons he possessed. He grasped the spear and ignited the rotating wheels, catching them on fire.
Bayani chanted dharma and released green energy like Kori when she fought Vali Lucifer. Nevertheless, Bayani's is more pure and thicker than Kori's.
The green energy turned into four arms, floating and releasing a profound aura.
Bayani inhaled a deep breath, gazing at Scathach calmly.
"Let's go, Prince Nezha." He said while stepping forward, leaving an afterimage.
Nezha nodded and rushed forward.
Bolts of lightning shot up, creating a flicker of white and green light in the arena.
CLANK! BAM!
"How unbelievable." Nezha laughed helplessly.
Nezha swung his spear and was able to strike Scathach's head, but to his surprise, her hair seemingly gained black luster.
The same goes for Bayani, who couldn't believe his eyes.
He has launched a punch with his spiritualist energy, yet a metallic sheen on Scathach's hand stopped it.
"What's this?" He mumbled in doubt. "It seems similar to Faith System's Spiritualist Force."
Scathach disappeared from their vision as Bayani felt a massive danger from his back.
"Spiritualist's Giant Right Hand!" Bayani roared, expanding one of his energy hands.
"Armanent Haki: Emission." Scathach casually sent a palm strike.
BOOOOOOOOOOOM!!
Bayani got sent flying by Scathach's palm strike, landing twenty-five meters away. He coughed a mouthful of blood and felt all his internal organs shift in that exchange.
"Wind of Healing..." A green light traveled inside Bayani's body, healing him completely.
Bayani was about to check Scathach's position when a violent wind suddenly slammed against his face.
"Blood God Slayer Technique: Head's Strike." Scathach appeared before Bayani, punching his face mercilessly.
BAM!
"Touki: Fire Punch!"
Nezha appeared and deflected Scathach's punch. He tried to, but the sheer force behind this punch was too terrifying.
"Sir Bayani!" Nezha shouted hurriedly.
Bayani clasped his hand and chanted, "Spiritualist's Prayers!"
The energy hands behind Bayani clasped simultaneously and created a powerful barrier. It received Scathach's punch and didn't budge at all.
BANG!
"Oh?" A surprised look appeared on Scathach's face.
"What about this?" Scathach smiled and pulled her arm, launching an even more powerful punch.
Nezha and Bayani's eyes widened.
"This is..."
"Beyond previous fighters."
"DON'T LOOK DOWN ON MY FATHER!" A roar echoed all of a sudden.
Scathach stopped and glanced at the supposed dead opponent, sensing another heart beating in her chest.
She frowned, "Is it regeneration?"
"I crushed her heart completely, leaving a trace of my divinity."
"She dispelled my divinity?" Scathach concluded, sensing the second heart appeared in Hel's body. It makes her wonder just what kind of power Loki bestowed on his daughter.
"Grrr..." Hel grabbed the Gae Bolg Alternative in her chest and pulled it out, glaring at Scathach.
"Take this back!"
The spear flew back at Scathach.
Scathach stretched her hand and caught the spear.
Hel flashed to the God Slayer's side and slammed her hand at Scathach.
Scathach's red eyes lit up, dodging the bloody hand of Hel.
The God Slayer observed the change in Hel's body and released her Blood Divinity, creating a field of slaughter.
Hel similarly reacted and erected another field of darkness.
SWOOSH!
The two fields clashed fiercely.
"Hehehe, taste the power of Cursed God... The Shadow." Loki laughed at Scathach.
Just like a shadow, Hel perfectly mimicked every skill/technique Scathach made until now, replacing the energy used with Cursed Energy.
Although this ability is troublesome, it's not invincible. Scathach was the legendary warrior queen! Her skills and technique could get copied, but Hel couldn't possibly imitate her fighting experience.
"Copy this then." Scathach summoned Soul Destroying Spear and added Advanced Armament Haki: Inner Destruction.
She drove the black spear to Hel.
Hel mimicked Scathach and created a spear made of Cursed Energy, launching the same attack with a similar form.
CLANK!
The two spears clashed and released a metal-clashing noise.
Hel's eyes twitched as her spear received this energy and transferred it to her body.
BOOM!
Hel's body exploded from inside, shattering everything apart.
Scathach turned around, focusing her attention on Nezha and Bayani again.
"How dare you..." A hateful voice drilled Scathach's ear.
A powerful grip landed on Scathach's leg. Hel recovered instantly and tried to throw the God Slayer away.
Scathach somersaulted in the air and grasped Hel's shoulder, throwing her instead.
"Blood God Slayer Technique: Thousand Flowers." Scathach launched another spear strike.
To Scathach's surprise, Nezha and Bayani prevented her from attacking Hel again.
"Spiritualist's Left Leg Stomp!"
"Rotating Universal Rings!"
A massive green leg and two chakrams flew at a fast pace.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!
Clouds of dust filled up the arena.
"Did we get her?" Nezha looked around vigilantly.
"I can't sense her presence..." Bayani frowned slightly.
Hel landed on the arena and touched the ground, expanding the Cursed Energy.
"Blood Rain that Pierce Heaven..."
The three of them instantly looked up when hearing this line.
Scathach hovered in the air, waving her hand down.
A drop of blood transforms into Gae Bolg and multiplies by a million, decorating the sky with frightening scenery.
Nezha and Bayani felt their heart tighten.
"Spiritualist's Prayer!!"
"Touki: Buddha's Bells!!"
"Cursed Magic: Curtain of Darkness!"
"Accelerate 100x." Scathach smiled faintly, basking herself in this bloody sky. Spears akin to raindrops fell one after another, making the three contestants suffer.
Nezha got pierced countless times. Still, he tried to avoid vital injuries that affected his mobility.
The same goes for Bayani because his back is filled with red spears, making him look like a skinny-looking porcupine.
The Spiritualist gritted his teeth and used everything he had to heal.
The worst of them all is Hel. Although she used Magic, it wasn't sufficient to counter Scathach's attack.
As a result, Mel got stabbed all over her body.
"Explode." Scathach tightened her fist, exploding the spears.
BOOM!
BOOM!
BOOM!
Three massive blobs of blood expanded in the arena.
"Ha... Ha..." Nezha heaved his chest up and down. He used his Touki and Divine Aura to the limit, successfully escaping.
On the other hand, Bayani drew a lot of energy from the Faith System and coughed blood. He glanced at Shiva and saw God's expression become slightly pale.
"This is not good. I-! No, we have to end this quickly." He muttered while standing up with difficulty. Everyone could hear his bones cracking and mending at this very moment.
Hel clawed out of a massive crater, coughing black blood. She trembled and felt her Life Energy weakened abruptly.
It seems the Cursed Energy wasn't compatible with her.
The Divina Aura in her body and Life Energy bestowed by her mother clashed with Cursed God's influence.
After all, Loki hastily used the Cursed God's Power without calculating the power Hel could wield. Unlike Surtr, Hel's body barely met the standard to get enhanced by Cursed God's Power.
Scathach looked at them and commented, "It seems you guys couldn't dance anymore."
"What a pity."
"I was to get a little serious."
"What?!" Everyone was shocked by Scathach's statement.
They thought Scathach was already serious all this time.
Pfft, how hilarious.
Yae slapped her hand on the chair continuously, feeling her stomach hurt from their shocked expression.
Even Huo Yuhao felt amused by their reaction.
"Boy, your talent isn't bad. Take this last attack of mine." Scathach said while staring at Nezha. "I'll spare your life."
As for Bayani, Scathach didn't care.
The thin-looking elderly is hanging on in his life and does not possess much raw potential left to train.
Hel is a different case.
Thanks to her hateful father, Hel wouldn't return to normal. Her body and soul have been corroded by Cursed God's Power.
"Be grateful. You can open your eyes wide in this life." Scathach activated her Spirit Circuits and summoned the Inner Demon Mask.
Yes, a black mask with a cruel smile, full of carnage.
Scathach stomped the ground and generated a repulsive force, sending Nezha, Bayani, and Hel into the air. They tried to run, using every method possible, and it was futile.
"Gae Bolg Alternative..."
"Soaring Spear of Piercing Death!"
Scathach threw three red spears in a row, creating a whistling sound in the Colosseum. As if the red spear's existence is too godly, the space around it warped, allowing a great force, and stabbed its target mercilessly.
Of course, the target won't just let it happen.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAARRGGGH! FIGHT!!!" Nezha roared as he released every ounce of Touki and Divine Aura from his body.
Bayani closed his eyes and burned his life force.
"SPIRITUALIST SACRIFICE!"
Hel clenched her body and looked at Loki, hoping for his worried expression. Yet she could only see a disappointed look.
She laughed bitterly inside and screamed outside to vent her last frustration.
"FOR MY FATHER!" She erupted the Cursed God's Power in her body and turned into a wolf, charging at the red spear of Scathach.
SWOOSH! KABOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!
Scathach turned around, walking out of the arena, as blood rain splattered in the background.
The three of them were "crushingly." defeated.
Bayani died.
Hel got destroyed beyond regeneration could fix. The amount of damage landed on her body is too much. Soon there is only dust with faint divinity in the arena.
Meanwhile, Nezha.
She smiled and commented, "What a lucky brat."
Nezha coughed a mouthful of blood a few times and panted as his heart crushed by Scathach's Anti-Divine Origin. He had long fainted and entered a critical condition.
Well, he can still get saved.
Huo Yuhao landed in the arena and surprised everyone. He tapped his hand on Nezha's head and healed the boy, throwing him to Sun Wukong.
"Sun Wukong, you know what this meant, right?" He smiled at the Youkai.
Sun Wukong smiled back wryly and nodded, leaving the Anti-Dragon Nest Faction alongside Nezha.
Huo Yuhao glanced at Hel and gathered the dust, placing it in his inventory.
He clapped his hands and announced, "Well, well, the Third Round, 5th, 6th, and 7th Matches... It's my Dragon Nest's victory."
"Should we continue, or do you guys want to give up right here, right now?"
Hearing Huo Yuhao's offer, everyone gulped nervously.
Huo Yuhao is giving them a last chance.
"I'LL NEVER GIVE UP!" Loki and Indra roared at the same time.
"Yes, me too." Shiva nodded in agreement, stepping forward.
"Is that so?" Huo Yuhao shook his head helplessly, chuckling at their ignorance.
"Then, come to the stage and fight!"
"This is the last battle to decide your World's Fate!"
