Everyone who attended Solar Banquet was literally one in a million genius.
Yet, there existed genius among geniuses.
Finally, there existed geniuses worthy enough to be confederated the title of Prince and Princess.
There were weak and strong among them as well, but they all fell in a range.
But…was there really a level above that?
The audience wondered as Charles Xander faced off against the strongest three geniuses.
The Flame Wizard—Marcus of Jupiter, Future War Sovereign—Ashtarh of Neptune and Mind Master—Xavier Bell.
It was not just the youngsters, even the powerhouses including Level 8s asked themselves.
'Is it really possible for such disparity to exist?'
"START!"
Following the announcement, Charles' figure instantly enlarged. His height grew from 2 meters to almost 4 meters.
A menacing spiked tail flapped against the ground as he turned into a giant werewolf.
In fact, he wasn't exactly a werewolf.
He was half-human and half-fenrir.
At level 6, this was his limit.
"Roar!" Charles body looked colossal compared to his opponents and the battle roar meant he was allowing them the first move.
"Arrogant." Standing farthest from Charles, a short haired youth muttered.
His silver hair shone under the banquet lights as his grey eyes lit up like sparks.
An invisible yet powerful mind power reached Charles in an instant and hit his mind.
"Grah!" Charles eyes lost their focus for a split second before they turned to the culprit.
"Bow!" Xavier's voice sounded in Charles mind like the rumbling of lightning.
He felt the external force, the mental force, acting on his brain, trying to seize control of his body.
It was a trick all Telepaths liked.
To stop Charles from resisting, his mental power launched attacks on his mind at the same time.
Like thin ice needles stabbing his brain, Charles felt a tingling pain.
It would've severely affected many level 6s, but…
"Roar!" Charles' eyes shone with an intense light and he slapped his claw in two different directions.
Boom!
His first claw attack compressed the wind and shot it towards the flame dragon that was about to reach him.
The moment they met, it was like a gigantic fan was waved against the flames.
The hurricane level wind wave swept away the flames.
If not for the floor's quality, it would've been blown into tatters.
At the same time, his other claw smashed against the fist of Ashtarh.
Bang!
Charles took a step back as he felt pain course through his claw and all the way to his forearm.
His opponent, Ashtarh was in a worse state as he took ten steps back. His heart was in turmoil.
Being a Controller, he raised his strength and hit out at Charles. With him being peak of Level 6 Controller, his punch just now was 10% higher than a peak Enhanced!
10% might seem like small, but his 10% was equivalent to the full blow of a high Level 4!
Yet, Charles didn't even step back. All he did was flinch.
"Roar!" He flinched! Charles was not amused.
He knew that the high awakeners were all watching this show, that's why, he needed to establish his dominance.
He endured the intense mental attacks and lashed his tail against Ashtarh.
Ashtarh rolled down and dodged the attack. But right before Charles' tail struck the ground, it flicked and turned at him.
This tail attack was more powerful than the claw.
Boom!
Boom!
With each passing moment, its sheer speed blasted air and amidst the sounds of explosions, the tail reached its foe.
"!" Ashtarh punched out with all his strength, and that meant, he 'raised' his strength.
Kacha!
Tsss!
"Grugh!"
Three different sounds were spread in the same instant.
The first was of bones breaking as Ashtarh was blown away to the end of the barrier.
The second was fire burning against fur as a huge fire lotus descended down on Charles and tried to burn him.
The third was Charles' grunt as he felt like his brain was crushed under the mental attacks.
"Roar!" Charles body flashed and he dashed towards Xavier.
Despite his confidence, Xavier's face paled and he exerted all his mental power to try and stop Charles in his tracks.
But…
"Roar!"
The distance of six miles turned into a few hundred meters.
Veins popped up on Charles' wolf head as he battled against the increasing intensity of the mental attacks.
The closer to a mind awakener, the stronger the effects.
It could've stopped other Level 6s, but not him.
"Roar!" Charles pressed his feet into the ground and lunged at Xavier.
"Gulp!" As the huge wolf head enlarged in front of his eyes, Xavier's body went cold and he felt a shiver down his spine.
'I, the grandson and disciple of Kreo Bell, the Sovereign of Psychic Path…am I going to be defeated just like this?'
At that moment, a blurry figure flashed and collided against Charles.
Boom!
Kacha!
As he was in mid-air, the high speed collision sent Charles flying for a mile before he crashed onto the ground.
Xavier's mental sense keenly captured the other figure on the ground…he was under Charles' legs.
Ashtarh.
He was terribly injured, yet…he escaped from Charles' legs and tried to fight Charles.
Kacha!
With another claw, Charles slapped him down to the ground.
With Ashtarh as the center, cracks spread like cobwebs.
Asharh struggled to move, but his injuries made it impossible.
Charles gaze turned to Xavier and his eyes narrowed.
But before he could move, a huge flame net was cast on him.
"Roar!"
With an angry growl, Charles tore apart the net like it was a piece of paper.
The fire net was only a decoy as a huge fire lotus from the sky crashed down on him.
Charles wanted to dodge, but the telepath working on him so long increased his grip all of a sudden and Charles' movements turned sluggish.
"You think you are really superior, huh?" Marcus sneered from the distance as he let the fire lotus burn on Charles arm.
Charles movements slowed down, but he was moving. However, Marcus pressed the scorching lotus against Charles as it slowly burnt his protective fur away.
Even though he knew winning in a three-to-one was not glorious, he decided to do it anyway.
As the fourth young master of the Caron family, he knew full well how much trouble Xanders were bringing to his family.
Xanders' were trying to extend their influence to even his home planet, Jupiter!
The scary thing was that they almost succeeded!
Julius Xander was the youngest sovereign and the most promising!
He hadn't fully 'grown up' yet and many forces were swaying to his side.
Now, if Charles Xander proves himself to be the number one genius of the federation…
"I won't let you succeed." Marcus gritted his teeth. The next moment, flames engulfed his body.
Two fire wings rose from his back and he dashed to Charles in the blink of an eye.
Looking down at Charles who was now in a tussle with , he muttered. "This is how you go down." And raised his hand.
At that moment, Charles' suddenly roared.
The air shook and the devices recording the audio nearly broke down.
His muscled bulged and his arm moved at a speed that most level 5 couldn't see.
Pa!
Like swatting a fly, he swatted away Marcus.
His figure blurred and he slapped against Xavier.
"Kuh!" Xavier spat out blood as he forcefully controlled Charles' hand and let his claw land in the distance.
Boom!
Yet…
Even though his physique was comparable to a level 3 body awakener due to his level, Xavier was blown away from the aftermath and passed out on the spot with heavy injuries.
"Roar!"
His three enemies were down.
With a resounding roar, Charles transformed back.
He looked at the heavily injured 'geniuses' and spat. "Don't compare yourself to me in the same breath. We're living in different worlds."
Except for the unconscious Xavier, both Ashtarh and Marcus heard his words.
They wanted to refute, but the severe injuries that prevented them from even moving reminded them that it was a fact.
And it was not just them…
The entire audience.
Juniors of levels 4 and level 5.
Peers of level 6.
Immediate Seniors of level 7.
Powerhouses of level 8.
And…the truly strong level 9s.
Including the Sovereigns.
Everyone realized that the number one was in a different league.
