Chapter 5: Chapter 5 : "You have made the biggest mistake of your life"

The Firefly Village Arena

The arena of the Firefly Village is a large structure of their village. In the centre of the arena, there were four square platforms of 100 meters in length and 100 meters in width. Surrounding the platforms were viewing area. The arena was a round structure without a roof.

The arena's viewing seats were filled by the villagers. The crowd that had gathered was ten times that of the one that gathered in front of Max's house. When the grand elder permitted Max and Jin to duel to settle their problem regarding the Lightning Phyonet, the news spread like wildfire.

Majority of the crowd was gathered for Jin. The last time Jin made a public show of strength was during a championship held for teenagers among villages surrounding Firefly village two years ago. At that time, Jin had just broken through to the 1-star Essence Transformation.

During the championship of two years ago, Jin had given everyone a stunning performance and won the title of champion. After that championship, Jin's reputation skyrocketed. Even now, the duel has yet to begin, but sounds of cheer for Jin is echoing in the arena.

Enjoying the cheers and attention, Jin smiled and waved at his fans as walks slowly to a platform that the grand elder was waiting on. Around 15- feet away from Jin and elder Loxius, Max and Kuro Kiba were following. Sounds of booing were heard from Jin's female fans.

Paying no heed to the booing or cheers from the crowd, Max walked casually. Max wore a black pants and a redshirt. On top of his shirt, he wore a brown leather jacket. On the right side of his waist, he hung five small knives. On the left side of his waist, the Fiery Blood Sabre hung, giving a dangerous feeling.

Compared to Max, Jin wore a casual pant and a blue t-shirt and on his back hung the Azure Turantanium blade. The casual clothing with a blade on his back gave Jin an elegant look.

With both Max and Jin on stage, the grand elder didn't wait any longer and proceeded to explain the rules again. No Armor, no Elemon and no interference from anyone. They were only allowed to use a weapon. Unless a party decides to admit defeat, the duel will continue.

Both Jin and Max signed a contract the grand elder had brought. The contract stated that injuries, disabilities or even death caused in the arena were responsibilities of their own. Even though the grand elder hopes no deaths or serious injuries happen to both Max and Jin, he has to follow the procedures set by the first grand elder.

Just to be safe, the grand elder handed a copy of the contract to both Kuro Kiba and elder Loxius. He fears Kuro Kiba will act rashly if Max was injured too badly by Jin. Elder Loxius and Kuro Kiba signed the contract without making a fuss.

"Since we are ready, let the match begin."

The grand elder left the platform to the side. Hearing the grand elder's words, the crowd went a cheering frenzy. But to their disappointment, Max and Jin didn't start to fight immediately. To the crowd, it looked like the two was talking leisurely.

Even the grand elder, elder Loxius and Kuro Kiba could not hear their conversation. This was due to the force field that was activated. The force field absorbs any damage done to it from the inside. It also absorbs sound, so the conversation could not be heard to the outside of the force field.

"You didn't expect it to end like this, did you, Max?"

"I never thought you would use your grandfather's influence to try and steal my Elemon. Truly, I never expected you to try and steal my Elemon again in the slightest."

"With all the traps that you set up for me, only fools would believe in you. But it's all in vain after all. At least you're not losing without a fight. That saves you some face. Though it's sad the fight will be a short one."

"Bahahaha. I'll prove myself with my strength. We'll see who will have the last laugh."

"Enough talk let's fight."

Max moved swiftly to his left while he threw one of his small knives at Jin.

"Little tricks like this can never get me, Max."

Jin dodged to his right and the knife stabbed the platform. Jin unsheathed his Azure Turantanium blade from his back and sent three consecutive slashes towards Max. The three azure coloured slashes were in a line, leaving Max with little room to dodge.

Max was as nimble as a monkey, dodging two slashes. As he was dodging the third slash, he saw Jin was rushing towards him. With a quick hand movement, Max took another small knife and threw it towards Jin.

In response, Jin changed his course of movement and dodged sideways. Jin's third slash managed to scratch Max's shoulder, cutting through Max's jacket, shirt and leave a skin-deep wound.

"Your pretty fast with your petty level of cultivation. Managing dodge my tri slash. You're not too boring after all."

With a humph, Max unsheathed his Fiery Blood Sabre and ran straight towards Jin. When max reached Jin, he slashed down with the sabre. But Jin snorted and lifted his blade to defend against Max's ordinary slash.

*Ting**Tang**Tang**Ting**Ting*

The two clashed multiple times and separated. As they were moving away from each other, Max threw another of his small knife at Jin. Jin also sent an azure slash at Max at the same time. The knife and the slashed passed each other with so little space between.

Max and Jin managed to dodge each other's attack and stood 20 meters apart, breathing heavily. The crowd was in shock. They could have never expected Max, who doesn't even have a spirit core yet can match a 3-star essence transformation.

After all, with each breakthrough, their body will also be nourished and reinforced. Max's speed and strength that doesn't lose out Jin, surprised everyone. Everyone except Kuro Kiba at least.

"I have to admit *breathes*. You're indeed an opponent that is worth fighting. But your weakness is your cultivation level. Without any spirit essence, even your sabre can't show its full potential."

Jin injected spirit essence into his Azure Turantanium blade. The blade exuded a faint azure glow. Jin performed multiple slashes toward Max.

A barrage of slashes came streaking towards Max. After dodging a few, Max was hit by the remaining slashes. He was thrown away by the slashes and he was slammed to the force field. Max had cuts all around his body.

The spectators were quite disappointed. After an exciting exchange of attacks, the fight has come to end rather quickly. But to their surprise, Max lifted his wound covered body up slowly and stood up. Max lifted the blade in his hand and stood in a fighting pose. This means Max doesn't want to give up.

"Sigh. To think that you would be this stubborn. Then I can only kill you now. If you make a breakthrough in the future, you may become too dangerous for me to handle. Fifth grand elder, you have won't be lonely anymore, I'll send your son to you."

Max didn't reveal any anger towards Jin's provocation.

"Now that I remember, your foster father would have been not lonely. After all, Yamato was long since waiting for your father right?"

Hearing Jin's word, Max's eyes flooded with tears. Max's grip slipped, and the Fiery blood sabre fell to the ground. Yamato. The name that has been a torn in Max's heart. Jin, who was standing 40 meters away from Max looked delighted.

He never thought mentioning a single name would make Max lose himself sadness. But then, to Jin's surprise. Max's expression became that of anger. Max crouched and picked up the Fiery Blood Sabre.

The blood from his wounds dripped to his Fiery Blood Sabre. The sabre then started to exude a faint black and red glow. Max's right eye started to glow in feint yellow and his back iris also started to turn red.

As his eyes started to exude a brighter yellow glow, blood from his wounds started to stop. Max's face was flushed with anger.

"JIN! You have made the biggest mistake of your life."
