Magical Kingdom of Hifung.

When Ray and Ruze arrived at the waiting room.

Vlyn: You have eye powers?

Ray: Yes, my mother died giving birth to me, that's why I have these eye powers.

Vlyn: Oh, but are you okay?

Ray: I'm fine.

Ray approached Hifung.

Ray: So next up is your turn.

Hifung: Yes, I can't wait.

A moment later.

Announcer: The next and final match, participant Hifung from Milty Kingdom and Regon from Hakao Kingdom, please enter the arena.

Hifung: Here we go.

Hifung left with Ruze.

At the arena, Hifung just entered, and his opponent Regon had just arrived as well.

Announcer: Are you ready?

Regon and Hifung: Ready.

Regon: Are you ready to lose?

(chuckles)

Hifung: I stand here not to accept defeat.

(smiles)

Announcer: Get ready.

Announcer: Begin!

Hifung ran sideways toward Regon.

Regon: Ridiculous.

Regon: Fire, Ragumo!

Fire magic forming several walls of fire that shoot fireballs at the target.

Hifung coated his sword with aura, then slashed the incoming fireballs.

Hifung jumped into the air, then used wind magic.

Hifung: Wind Strike!

Wind magic throwing sharp triangular wind blades.

Regon blocked it with earth magic.

Regon: Earth Wall!

He built a wall of earth to block Hifung's attack.

Hifung dashed quickly toward the wall, accelerated by wind magic.

He coated his sword with fire magic and pierced through the wall, breaking it.

Regon: You're reckless.

Hifung kept rushing toward Regon.

Regon used his aura-coated sword to block Hifung's slash.

The clash between the magic-coated sword and aura sword sparked electric sparks.

Regon used his leg and unleashed water magic.

Regon: Water Kick!

Water magic generated from the foot, shooting a small jet of water.

The magic pushed Hifung back.

Ray (thinking): "That Regon guy, he's not fighting seriously."

Hifung (thinking): "This guy is strong, but not serious. I have to be smart to win."

Hifung remembered when Vlyn taught him that magic infused with aura can become stronger.

Hifung (thinking): "I have to use aura on this magic."

Hifung infused chi into his left hand, then released fire magic along his arm.

He also coated his sword with aura.

Then he dashed quickly toward Regon.

Regon used magic on his sword and blocked Hifung's slash.

Hifung tried to hit Regon with his left hand.

Regon saw it and jumped far backward.

Hifung immediately unleashed the magic from his left hand after coating it with aura.

The magic flew toward Regon, shaped like a large blast with aura.

Ray (thinking): "Impressive, you can coat your magic with aura that easily." (smiles)

Feds: He can already coat magic with aura?

Vlyn, Ziden, and Micyl watched Hifung and Regon's fight with enthusiasm.

Regon: Hmph, turns out that clown can combine magic and aura.

Regon: Then I have no choice.

Hifung's magic approached Regon, but suddenly.

Regon: Thunder Blast!

Lightning magic classified as at least level E.

The magic was a burst of many lightning bolts from the user's hands.

The two magics clashed, causing many explosions.

Ray (thinking): "Lightning!?"

Vlyn: That lightning magic, if I'm not wrong, is at least level E.

Vlyn looked at Feds.

Feds looked skeptical.

Micyl thought silently while watching Hifung.

Micyl (thinking): "That guy, can he really beat someone who mastered lightning magic?"

Hifung and Regon's magic continued clashing, and the small explosions grew larger.

Both kept maintaining their magic to keep attacking.

Suddenly, a huge explosion happened.

Some spectators were thrown back by the blast.

The window in the waiting room where Ray, Micyl, Ziden, Elric, Vlyn, and Feds were watching shattered.

Hifung and Regon were thrown back quite far; Hifung's sword flew out of the arena.

They almost fell outside the match area.

Both looked exhausted, Hifung struggled to stand up.

Regon: Seems like I underestimated you.

Regon: I didn't expect you to still be standing after being blasted by that explosion.

Hifung: Huh, I can still fight.

Regon: No, I will end this now.

Regon unleashed lightning magic from his hand.

Regon: Too bad, the result has been decided since you were chosen to face me.

Hifung: I already told you, I'm not here to accept defeat.

Hifung unleashed fire magic on his hand.

Normally, fire magic is pinkish-red, but Hifung's fire changed to orange.

Elric: Hifung's fire magic changed color!

Vlyn: What kind of fire is that?

Feds: That fire!?

Feds: That's orange fire, an advanced form of red fire, orange fire is classified as mid-level E magic.

Vlyn: Eh!? (disbelief)

Elric: Since when could he use that magic?!

Ray, Micyl, Elric, and Ziden were amazed.

Hifung and Regon threw their magics, clashing again.

This time, Hifung's orange fire dominated, Regon's lightning magic broke, and the fire flew toward Regon.

Regon was blasted far out of the arena by the magic, but he was still burning.

Regon screamed from the heat.

The medical team rushed and immediately used water magic to put out the fire.

The audience was silent for a moment.

Audience: Cheater!!

Audience: He used mid-level E magic!

Audience: It's unusual to use level E magic in a match like this!

The audience became chaotic, refusing to accept it.

Vlyn: What is happening?

(confused and panicked)

Ray: They can't accept the Hakao Kingdom representative losing to us, the Milty Kingdom's representative.

Feds hurried to Hifung's side.

Feds shouted, trying to explain to the crowd.

Feds: Hifung is not cheating, he used mid-level E magic, but Regon also used at least level E magic, and there is no rule forbidding the use of any magic level.

But the crowd didn't listen and became even more chaotic.

Vlyn: This is bad.

Elric: Looks like we have to leave quickly.

The crowd grew more unruly, starting to leave

their seats and enter the arena.

Feds: We have to go now.

Hifung nodded.

Feds held Hifung's hand and flew away using wind magic.

They soared through the air with Feds' wind magic.

Elric: Hurry, we must leave quickly.
