"Congratulations," Merasi said with a brilliant smile on her face. Air spun around her, drifting her hair in the wind as she prepared for a full-on attack.
Ning's eyes narrowed a bit as he realized that she had realized. "Thank you," he said, returning a smile to her.
Alekor noticed this interaction between them and didn't hesitate for a second to send out his aether to strengthen the walls and ceiling of this place.
At the same time, Merasi and Ning moved.
They clashed at the center, their hands and legs stopping the others from attacking.With a thought, Merasi created a gravity pull to her side, the target of which was Ning.
Ning kicked her and backed away before the gravity could work on him. At the same time, he created a spear out of nowhere and sent it flying at Merasi.
When it struck her, the blade on the spear bent sideways with not a single nick on her skin.
Merasi created a large bang noise but it wouldn't reach Ning through the vacuum he had already created around him with his reverse gravity around him.
At the same time, Ning created a massive flash of light that made Merasi wince a little before quickly opening her eyes to see Ning run towards her.
Seeing that, she punched him. However, just as their fists touched each other, she realized she had made a mistake.
A massive force struck her on her back, which sent her once more flying towards the wall.However, this time she managed to twist in midair and remained flying there.
She watched the fake Ning disperse into a bunch of light.
"2nd Hit," Ning said with a grin on his face.
Merasi shook her head. She couldn't believe that she had yet to land a single hit on him when he already hit her twice.
"You've hidden your Invoking skills quite well," she said.
"More like I haven't needed to use my Invoking skills for training until now," Ning said.
Mercy's eyes were wide on the side. She had lost to him every single time they fought, and it turned out he wasn't even giving it his all.
Alekor simply sighed with nothing to say.
Silvers' mouth was so wide, that he could probably not say anything even if he wanted to.
"I will get serious then," Merasi said.
"Okay," Ning said and got ready.
Suddenly, metallic armor appeared on parts of her body only in certain locations like the chest, back, shoulders, wrists, etc.
Any location that would hamper movement had nothing blocking it at all.
Ning remembered it as what she had done during their battle the first time 3 years ago, but this time, she would have the power of a Supreme behind those movements and attacks.
Plus, attacking her nerve ends wouldn't work this time at all. Ning needed to seriously fight this time around.
Merasi came running towards him. At the same time, there was something forming on her hands that Ning couldn't make out immediately.
Suddenly, she swung her hand. A long whip came out of nowhere and targeted his left side.
Ning put his left hand up to stop. Despite his reverse gravity protection, if the whip was too fast, it could hit him.
As expected, the whip did get close to his body and wrapped around his hands. As the force behind the whip ended, it started to unravel back thanks to the reverse gravity.
But at the same time, a massive jolt of electricity passed through his body, nearly crippling him for a few seconds.
If not for the whip letting go a split second after the electricity came, he would have suffered far more damage.
'Damn, she's really not playing around,' Ning thought. He looked at Merasi's gloves and realized that there was probably some sort of insulator inside them to protect herself.
Lightning crackled on her metal whip as she slammed it at Ning once again.
However, even as it came closer, a small gravity pull appeared near the wall that directly targeted the tip of the whip.
In the split second it took for the whip to go out of its way, Ning dashed towards Merasi.
There was nothing he could do to her using enchantment that wouldn't seriously harm her to the point where she would either be crippled or end up dead.
So, Ning decided to take the easier, more straightforward route and dashed toward her with all of his might.
Merasi tried to use some more forces on him, but none worked. So, she let go of her whip and went into battle with her body as well.
Each hit sounded like a thunderclap. The ground shook when their punches connected, and the whole tower threatened to tremble when their kicks landed.
If not for Alekor enforcing the walls, he was sure most of the structure would have taken damage by now.
So, as the two of them fought with great noises, no one in the room realized that there were some words being spoken on a loudspeaker outside.
The fight went on for a few minutes and neither Ning nor Merasi seemed to be winning.
Suddenly, the door opened to the training room and a bunch of people entered, wearing white and purple.
Ning saw them enter and stopped fighting. When Merasi saw that he had stopped, she was about to go in for an attack. But when she realized he was distracted, she too stopped and looked to where he was looking at.
A man had entered the room, followed by a bunch of other men and women.
Merasi's eyes changed when she saw that man. "Jason? I didn't know you had woken up already," she said, and her eyes flickered to joy as a smile appeared on her face.
She slammed her two fists together in provocation and asked, "Are you here to train with me?" she asked.
"Save your provocation, I'm not here for you," the man said as he looked around and asked, "Who is Terran Forn?"
