Path of Absolute Transcendence

Chapter 40: 40. Duel (part-3)



"All three of you come and take a token from the box. The one who obtains the token with the star will directly qualify for the finals; the remaining two will battle among yourselves." The elder asked the three of them to draw the token.

Kai, Aman and Leiyin took a token from the box at the same time. Kai saw his token and he did not have the start on it.

'My luck did not change a bit even after coming to the new world.' thought Kai.

"It seems I have to face you in the finals, don't lose to that gorilla guy. I will crush you like I said before." Leiyin said, and he seemed to have gotten the star token.

'Why does this moron always get lucky? Is he the protagonist ?'

Kai thought about the situation. Leiyin had already skipped one round, and this happened again. He didn't like Leiyin having so much luck.

"Participants, get ready for the battle; you have five minutes." The elder said this to Kai and Aman.

Both Kai and Aman got onto the stage after five minutes.

"I hope you will give me some challenge, not like the puny weakling who got defeated by a single punch," said Aman with immense fighting spirit. He did not mock Kai; he expressed his intent to fight against Kai.

"The same goes for you; don't be cut by a single sword." Kai also replied in the same manner.

"The semi-final match begins," the elder announced the start of the match during their conversation.

Aman immediately activated his giantification ability and became a small mountain. He raised his hand and punched Kai with full force.

Kai immediately dodged the attack, but he was not able to attack him since he was continuously throwing a barrage of punches.

Kai avoided the incoming attack by deflecting with his sword and taking the chance to distance himself from Aman. He activated his heart control ability and used phantom steps to move and increase his speed.

Kai got an advantage in the battle since Aman's speed decreased due to being a giant, and Kai took advantage of it and started slashing at him.

"Why are you escaping like a mouse? Come on, face me like a man." Aman provoked Kai by saying this stupid sentence.

"Do you think I would fall for such a petty trick?" Kai replied.

A lot of blood marks appeared on Aman's body. Kai added his sword intent to his every slash, and it made him bleed. Now, Aman's body is full of blood, and he is panting in exhaustion.

"I'm not reconciled with this type of fight," Aman screamed in anger.

*AAHHHH*

His body became a lot bigger, and his injuries all over his body also started to heal, visible to the naked eye. Soon, in a few moments, he reached his peak condition.

"Do you think this move is worth fighting for?" Kai asked doubtfully. Aman used his potential to heal his injury and also made himself stronger. The consequences of this move will have a very big side effect in the future; he may cripple himself by doing this.

"Yeah, my only dream is to fight a very strong guy, and you happened to be that guy. I don't know anything about you, but you are hiding a lot of your strength. So, please show your true strength and fight with me." Aman explained the reason to Kai.

"Do you think I will do it just because you said so?" Kai asked playfully. Aman became silent after hearing this, and he started regretting his decision.

"Since you are very honest, I will fight with you truly," Kai replied. He decided to show his true strength without revealing his will path.

Kai put his sword in his storage ring and held both of his fists in a fighting position.

"You won't regret this decision. I will give up this match after a satisfactory battle." Aman said it with a grin on his face.

"That isn't necessary; don't judge a book by its cover," Kai replied calmly. He already tempered his body with all five elements, and he even tempered his organs, so Kai did not think he would lose in terms of physical strength to anyone in the same realm.

Kai had also tempered his body in the refining tower regularly.

Kai and Aman punched each other at the same time, and both of them took three steps back.

"You have such a strong body with your appearance. But this isn't my full strength." Aman praised Kai. Kai's appearance is rather slim compared to Aman's bulky appearance, but his body is in a golden ratio.

Then both of them started exchanging fists, and their speed also started getting faster. Kai gradually lost his momentum, but he focused his blood flow into his hands and legs instead of just speeding it up.

With that, Kai gained the upper hand; his control over his body made him extract most of his strength without wasting it. He jumped over Aman's face and tried to punch him.

Aman directly punched Kai in mid-air without giving him any chance.

'You fell for it,' thought Kai. He used the force of the punch to redirect himself in the air and appear before Aman's face. Kai used the momentum and directly punched Aman with full power.

Aman fell due to the force of the punch, Kai did not give him any chance and started punching him in the face without any mercy.

"I give up! I give up!" Aman surrendered the battle; he was not able to handle the beating from Kai.

"The winner of the battle is Kai. He is qualified to battle in the finals." The elder announced the result of the battle.

*YEAHHHHHH*

All the disciples in the crowd cheered for both of them due to their superb match.

"Aman, you have done a very good job. Don't lose hope, and practice harder."

"Yeah, you can defeat him next time. Don't lose hope."

"Kai, you are so handsome. Keep up the good work and win the finals."

Like this, most of the disciples cheered for them, but the majority were for Aman since he used everything that he got in this match. Kai did not use that but easily won the match, but the crowd here liked the fighting spirit of Aman, so they cheered for him.

Aman canceled his talent ability and got up.

"You are really strong, I'm not your match even with my ability, and you did not even use yours. I hope you can spar me another time on your time." Aman praised Kai.

"Yeah, if I had time, I would accept it," Kai replied without thinking about anything. He did not mind sparing with simple-minded guys like Aman; it was also a small training for him.

'I think I need to focus on training my body for now.' thought Kai. He did not win the match against Aman easily; he only won the match by luck. Aman did not know about the existence of organ tempering, and he was also not able to temper his body with elemental energy, but his body was still stronger.

He forgot about the ability of Aman; he would not be able to exert this much strength without using his potential, but Kai forgot about that and was thinking about his weak body.

"Kai, you have one stick incense amount of time for rest. Your match will start after that." The elder said this to Kai.

(One stick of incense - generally around 30 to 40 minutes; here it is 30 mins.)

Kai got up after resting and went to the arena. As soon as he entered the field, he heard the same annoying voice.

"Hey, have you had enough rest? If it is not enough, I can give you some extra time. Don't say that 'I'm not in my peak condition' after the match." Leiyin said it with a creepy smile on his face.

"You know what? I don't like your face, your ugly smile, and your annoying voice. I hate your entire existence, so I hope you will see your face for the last time since I am going to destroy it entirely." Kai said in a chilling voice.

"I hope you can talk arrogantly like this after the match. Nobody ever talked to me like that has returned in one piece." Leiyin replied without any emotion, but he clenched his hand tightly in anger.

Kai did not say anything about this but kept smiling silently.

"The final battle between Kai and Leiyin begins," the elder announced the start of the battle.

Leiyin did not say anything and immediately used his talent. Lightning started to gather around him, and his body was surrounded by lightning and thunder. His whole body is elementalized, and he looks like a thunder god.

But he did not stop with that; he used his body as a medium to draw the lightning from the heavens. Drak clouds with golden lightning appeared on the battlefield, and the whole place became eerily quiet.
