Chapter 843: The Defeated Champion
—
"Uh, Dad?"
"Yes, Princess?"
"What did Big Brother Kyle just do? Why is the battlefield like that now?" Vanessa\'s question caused her friends to perk up and look at Raven for answers as well.
Raven smiled at them and said: "What he die was basically exerting his Will onto the battlefield by virtue of his Laws."
"Laws?"
"Laws are the governing force that determines the order to things, Sweetheart." Luna interjected, "It is the answer to why things exists and things doesn\'t exist."
"That\'s right." Raven nodded, "Every living being follows the order of Laws. Cultivators like us can perceive them and sometimes exercise out control over said Laws."
"What Kyle used was his understanding of Star Laws." Raven added, "Using it, he basically gained control over the battlefield. What he says and wants, goes in there. If he wants things in order, then it shall be in order. If he wants it to be chaotic and unpredictable, it will become chaotic and unpredictable."
"If he wants the gravity to heavier, it will. If her wants the sky to be at the bottom and the ground above, then it shall. If he wants the air to blow from west to east only, then it will."
"If he doesn\'t want fire to burn, then it won\'t. If he forbid the water to fall, then it\'s forbidden. In that very battlefield right now, Kyle is nothing short of a god honestly."
"Simply put, in that very battlefield right now. Your Big Brother Kyle is the ultimate ruler. That is unless someone stronger than him exists within the same space that can nullify his control." Raven finished his explanation.
"Amazing, but…it sounds complicated." Vanessa sighed.
"It is, Princess." Raven chuckled. "Perceiving Laws was never easy, much less utilizing it to its outmost degree. It\'s one of the things that had to be explored by yourself. That\'s why experience is extremely important to a cultivator."
Vanessa and her friends nodded in agreement and went back to watching the slow-motion replay of the match.
Just like what Raven said, Kyle already has the upper-hand in this match. It only took one miscalculated move from the twins and Kyle practically reversed the situation around.
Still, that doesn\'t mean that the match has been decided. Kyle only managed to take over the battlefield, it doesn\'t mean anything if the twins could still move around and fight back, which is exactly what\'s happening right now.
Yes, the advantage that twins had earlier had been neutralized by Kyle\'s sudden eruption and showcase of strength, but he hasn\'t won yet. If anything, he just evened out the playing field.
Now, there\'s really nothing holding them back. This is the three of them going all-out in this battle.
With the intensity of the battle, Raven had to slow-down the replay even more since the three of the, were starting to become mere blurs and shadows all over again.
The twins are trying to close the distance between them and Kyle but it was extremely difficult to do so. Even with Tori\'s speed, she can\'t touch him since he could just redirect her trajectory somewhere else.
Of course, the twins are fighting each other as well while trying to take Kyle down. Flurry of lights and cacophony of explosions followed their wake as they moved-about. Each one was dead set on truly eliminating the other two to claim the title of being Divine Realm\'s Grand Meet Champion.
Their clash left everybody breathless, especially the young ones. It\'s a little hard to believe that the people they\'re watching right now were young. If anything, they\'d easily pass as a an expert already with capabilities like this.
It was an eye-opener to them for sure. Just from witnessing this battle, they could see just how much they\'re lacking in all aspects – training, cultivation, law comprehension and experience. None of them would be able to last even for a few minutes if they were in there.
Still, just like what Raven said earlier, this is a display for the youth of Divine Realm. Seeing what being a Genius truly means will ignite their passion and push them to train harder.
After all, youth are indeed hot-blooded and sometimes irrational. They wouldn\'t want to he outshined by their peers.
With the clash going as hard as it right now. It was difficult to guess who will win.
The competition was extremely tight. Their strengths were basically equal. At the end of the day, it seems that it\'ll once again depend on who makes the wrong move.
And that moment came sooner than expected.
Tori utilized her Extreme Yang Laws to its outmost degree, at least within the level that she can endure. This caused her to release an eye-catching and scorching brilliance that injured everyone who saw it.
The audience were protected from it but Kyle and Nina weren\'t.
The one that show the strongest reaction was Nina since she\'s utilizing her Elusive Yin Laws – the polar opposite of Extreme Yang. They basically cancelled each other.
Kyle was the one who suffered the most. He was scorched by Tori\'s aura and drained by Nina\'s. Nevertheless, he remained steady and didn\'t falter from his position.
Just as Tori was about to move, Kyle\'s pupils suddenly widened. The moment she took a step forward, Kyle changed the gravitational pull once more, causing Tori to nearly lose her balance.
Nina saw this and planned on taking advantage of it, but she didn\'t know that this was just the start of Kyle\'s plan.
She took the bait so then Kyle shifted the pull once again. The switch was done in a subtle swift manner that the twins could barely react and recover from it.
Kyle chose to use this moment to eliminate them once and for since he doesn\'t know if he\'ll ever have a chance again.
Whilst they were unstable, Kyle swung his greatsword and sent waves of dense sword energy their way. With his utilization of Star Laws, Kyle could remotely control his attacks, freely shifting it to keep them guessing.
Tori and Nina were forced to take it whether they liked it or not, but of course, this is just the start for Kyle.
He was practically unstoppable once he began. He sent out waves after waves, ending in a ceaseless volley of attacks that the twins could only receive.
They can\'t retaliate from it. There was simply no time to do so. And it\'s not like they could easily receive of escape from Kyle\'s attack too. Kyle effectively forced them to be beaten down without any hopes of fighting back. They neither can escape or endure this ceaseless attacks.
And just as expected, someone caved in after quite sometime.
Tori pursed her lips and sighed, allowed her to be taken out. However, before she was completely eliminated, she glared at her boyfriend and said:
"You\'re sleeping on the couch until tomorrow!"
Kyle involuntarily winced upon hearing that but what\'s done was done.
Only Nina was left and still hasn\'t given-up.
Don\'t get this wrong. Tori was the first one to go not because she was weaker than Nina. It\'s just because of the circumstances.
Nina was dispersing some of the burdens to her surroundings while Tori tanked them all with her physique. Comparing the two would of course be unfair, after all Tori suffered more since she\'s taking it all.
Nina was smarter about this, heck she even managed to launch a counter-attack from time to time but it wasn\'t enough to faze Kyle who waved his greatsword like a maniac.
She was effectively trapped like this. She can\'t escape the volley of attacks. She could neither wait, until Kyle was tired because she\'s knows that\'s not going to happen, nor do something about it since Kyle closed-off all her options.
Nina\'s patience and wits might be greater than Tori but she also knows that a situation was impossible when she sees one.
Knowing her defeat is inevitable, she sighed and accepted her loss. Oh well, at least she tried. She wasn\'t extremely disgruntled about her loss since it made aware that she\'s still a long way to go. But of course, she won\'t make this easy for Kyle either.
"Yep. You\'re definitely sleeping on the couch. No cuddles and kisses until tomorrow for you Mister." Nina giggled before she got eliminated.
"Aww! Come on! Not my cuddles and kisses!" Kyle whined as he heard the announcement of his victory.
Amidst the loud screams of the crowd, screaming his name with reckless abandon and awed gazes. Kyle didn\'t truly feel happy.
Did he truly win?
Yes.
But at what cost?
His cuddle time with his girlfriends. Something that even more important to him than whatever prize there is for this damn competition.
Kyle couldn\'t help but sulk and grumble softly.
"Stupid competition. If I knew I\'d lost my cuddle time, I would\'ve surrendered as soon as it began."
Kyle was summoned to the real world by Raven, standing at the tallest podium to represent his status as Divine Realm\'s Grand Meet Champion.
Beside him, at both sides, were her girlfriends who were giggling at their sulking boyfriend.
