Gomat noticed that the wisp wasn't moving, but he couldn't say if Krune was looking at him or not. Since Krune wasn't saying anything, Gomat just snorted and looked at the slots. Soon, Krune noticed that those who didn't make it into the defender position had finally selected their opponents to attack. Not surprisingly, Lofa, Tasier, and Shinja received an attacker each, which means that Gomat couldn't challenge them anymore.

That was to be expected. For those outside Krune and Gomat's group, Krune's group definitely seemed weaker. It is just a question of who was famous before and who wasn't.

Seeing that there was no need to keep guard anymore, Krune immediately looked at the two slots still available for attack and rushed inside. But just as he was about to enter, a flame blade cut his path. Krune had kept Gomat inside his Divine Sense all the time, so he didn't have a problem to dodge that.

"What you want?"

Gomat looked at Krune and laughed.

"Neither you or I would take more than a minute to defeat the guy inside, so why don't we play a bit?"

If Krune wanted to enter now, he definitely could with the speed of his Tribulation Lightning Movement. But something was telling him that he shouldn't let this chance pass. How many times can he challenge someone at his level? This is a very good opportunity! Even if logic says that he should avoid battle as much as possible, Krune still wanted to see the difference between him and Gomat.

"Then, let's see you are capable of."

Arcs of Purple Lightning started to flow around Krune's ethereal body, and he immediately began his assault. Gomat is a Yang Core owner and a Fire Dragon on top of that. Fire attacks would have little effect on him, so Krune started with his Myriad Water Thunder Dragons that used Tribulation Lightning. In fact, every skill that can be used with lightning will have Tribulation Lightning power since Gomat is the opponent, after all.

Gomat noticed the dragons coming in his direction and snorted, suddenly the flames around his dragon body became blue! The water dragons hit his body but were incapable of making any significant injury. Krune looked at that and was taken aback, Gomat was the very first one to take his Thunder Water Dragons with his body! Not to mention, why are the flames around Gomat's body blue?

Krune then immediately accessed his memories about the contents that he learned during cultivation. Krune didn't only spend time on other languages. He also took a look at several other subjects. He can cultivate and study at the same time. With his wisp IQ, it would have been a waste not to get more knowledge from the network available for him back in the Kaley City Mercenary Branch.

'Hydrogen generated flames!'

Krune immediately found the answer to his question after thinking a little about the elements. But how is Gomat separating Hydrogen, and from where?

Krune wasn't the only one surprised. Gomat was also taken aback when he looked at the small injuries in his body after receiving Krune's Thunder Water Dragons.

'Tribulation Lightning!'

It only took a second for Gomat to understand why Krune's Dragons were so powerful. Suddenly, Gomat started to laugh again!

"Hahaha! Great! To think that you can even use Tribulation Lightning."

Krune answered back.

"And you can use hydrogen to create blue flames, just how do you do that?"

Gomat snorted and then concentrated on his other element.

Immediately, Water Element started to dance around him, which made Krune amazed!

"Since you showed your Tribulation Lightning, I will tell you this much. There is a lot of Hydrogen in water, and it burns very well when you separate it from the Oxygen. At first, I just wanted to get rid of my weakness which was the water element, so I was bold enough to specialize myself in water element too. For that objective, I studied the water element to a deep understanding. Then I thought: Since Hydrogen burns easily, what if I use my Water Element Control to separate the Hydrogen from Oxygen and burn it? The result is that not only can I use Water Element to a high level, but my flames got even fiercer!"

Shinja, who was playing with her opponent inside the slot, was paying attention to what was happening outside. She looked at Gomat and couldn't believe what she was hearing and seeing. She has a Pure Yin Body and specializes in Water Element. Still, she had never studied it so profoundly as Gomat did. Immediately, she felt ashamed. It made her feel like she had never really tried to understand her primary element at all! Of course, Gomat wasn't even close to achieving what a Yin Major Core could.

Krune was equally amazed! A Fire Dragon with a Yang Core was now using Water Element right in front of him, and he was sure that his level of water control was only behind Shinja's, who had a Pure Yin Body. Krune wasn't underestimating Gomat to start with, but now his opinion of the dragon had changed entirely. Gomat obviously isn't just a muscle brain as he thought. There is no doubt that he is brilliant!

"Alright, enough with words, the time is passing, and we need to proceed with the test."

Gomat then focused on his third element, Wind! The blue flames that were already strong immediately grew in power by several times. He then rushed directly at Krune like a giant blue fireball! Gomat is, at the very end, a dragon! So it goes without saying that he bests at close combat.

Krune noticed that as well and didn't hold anything back. He doesn't fight close combat, so Krune immediately used his Tribulation Lightning at 50% to keep the distance from Gomat. The dragon didn't think that it was strange, nor was he angry at that development. He can see that Krune is a wisp, it would weirder instead if Krune was a close combat wisp.

Boom! Crack! Shhhh!

Gomat and Krune exchanged several attacks, everything around has sparks of purple lightning or were deeply burnt. Although Krune was keeping his distance, it wasn't like he was taking no damage. Gomat knows that Krune is a long-ranged combatant, so he had his own ways of landing his attacks on Krune.

Of course, thanks to Krune's Tribulation Lightning Movement, he could always dodge and take the least of damage even when he was caught by surprise several times. Still, his ethereal body started to become paler with time, and it was evident that Krune was using a lot of Spiritual Energy.

Gomat wasn't doing any better, it was mainly because of his Dragon Body that he could take so many hits from attacks fused with Tribulation Lightning. Still, his injuries were also accumulating.

Both sides noticed that it wasn't going well and started to use their trump cards.

Around Krune, 38 Hexagonal Shields appeared and started ho hover around him. As for Gomat, his Dragon Wings were suddenly covered by some kind of metallic equipment. Those were Gomat's trump cards. A pair of Three Silver Stars equipment. Krune looked at those and could see lightning element coming from them.

Immediately, Gomat's speed increased!

Gomat's Planet condition is who knows how many times better than Krune's, so he had access to much better blacksmiths there. Not to mention that Krune could see formations inscribed on those wings equipment. It was probably those formations that gathered lightning element to improve the Fire Dragon's speed.

In contrast, Krune's Azure Shields could be considered at most a Five Stars Shields. But Krune didn't mind, Marcus had put a lot of effort into those shields, and they could be fused with his elements, which boosted their defense several times. Not to mention that it was evident that Gomat hadn't created the Divine Imprints for those pair of wings, so his control over them was a far cry from Krune's over his shields.

Of course, the difference between normal stars equipment and silver stars ones wasn't that easily breached. It was thanks to the Tribulation Lightning that Krune could bring so much out of his shields.

Krune then kept his distance as a good long ranged fighter.

"Thunder Line!"

"Tribulation Chain Lightning!"

"Explosion Blazing Wind Blades!"

Gomat wasn't holding back as well.

"Blue Hell!"

"Myriad Azure Fire Dragons!"

"Azure Fire Twister!"

Gomat and Krune continued at that until eight minutes were gone when suddenly, both sides separated.

Gomat injuries looked quite ugly, and some purple lightning spark could be seen coming from his body. Gomat's Silver Stars wings had quite a few cracks on it too. Krune wasn't any better, his ethereal body looked quite pale, and his core had some scourging marks on it. Even his shields were not enough to hold all of Gomat's attacks after he was boosted by the silver equipment. In the end, five of Krune's shields had shatered, and ten others were severely damaged.

Gomat looked at Krune and laughed once more.

"Hahaha! Great! How long has it been since I had so much fun?! You have surpassed all my expectations!"

But then, Gomat said.

"But we better stop it here."

The blue fire around Gomat's body then extinguished, but his face showed that Gomat was in quite a good mood.

Krune's purple lightning then disappeared, and his shields came back to his side.

"Likewise! I'm not very fond of killing, in fact, I hate it, but I do like good fights. It is not every day that I can fight someone at the same cultivation level as me with similar combat power."

Gomat's smile became bigger, and then he looked at one of the two slots that had no attackers so far. The guy inside wasn't from Krune or Gomat's group. He felt a chill on his back the moment that he saw the dragon's eyes. He didn't have to fight, so he spent all his time watching Krune and Gomat. It was evident to him that he wouldn't be able to hold the slot against neither of the two.

Krune also looked at the other slot without anyone fight. It is just that the demon beast inside couldn't tell that since Krune is in his wisp form. But soon, he understood that Krune was aiming him since the wisp started to move in his direction.

Before Krune or Gomat could even start to fight the guys inside of those two slots, their opponents voluntarily left. They still have a good chance of finding another door to fight over, but it would be suicide to try to stop those two monsters.

During the time that Gomat and Krune were battling, quite a few nearby cultivators and Demon Beasts noticed the chaotic energy caused by both of them. But no one wanted to get close to the door where they were battling. If they tried to sneak around to take the two free slots, chances were that Gomat and Krune would join hands to get rid of them. So no one tried to pull their leg.

Shinja, Lofa, and Tasier were teleported first. In Shinja's case, it was easy for her to defend her slots.

As for Tasier and Lofa, they still had quite some injuries by the time the ten minutes were over. Thankfully, they had quite a few healing pills that were prepared by Krune. Tasier was even happier since he didn't need to rely on his Thunder Hawk bloodline to defend his slots.

Around 8 minutes later, Krune and Gomat appeared beside their own teams too.

Gomat then noticed Krune there and approached him, Shinja and the others were immediately put on high alert.

But to their surprise, Krune did the same.

When they were in front of each other, gomat talked first.

"Ten Major Core's Yang Core, Gomat."

Krune also did the same.

"Ten Major Core's Elemental Core, Krune."

Gomat smiled again and departed with his group after that, there was nothing more to be said.

They are now, on the 96th floor.
