The Ancient Genes

Competition Ground, Capital.

"Boom!"

The breath attack of the two beast collided head on and furious gales erupted which was soon followed with a terrifying explosion which send everything flying away and broke apart every structure within a radius of half mile.

The students who were nearer to the source of explosion without anything in front to act as a defensive covering were immediately blown away and the impact was strong enough to crush the bones of anyone below Advance Tier and leave even those in Advance Tier with grievous injuries.

When the the raging winds calmed down, only a few of the people were left standing with most of them gone.

"Damn! That almost got me," Mr. Cool had teleported at the right moment saving both himself and Lear on his back.

"Bang!" The rubbles suddenly exploded revealing a huge ice shield inside which had protected quite a few people.

Xenon had casted it at the right moment saving himself as well as Ren, Wendy, Arthur, Bayu and Zeld behind him.

Suddenly Zeld's body got consumed into a white light and he disappeared.

It seemed the impact was still to much for him to bear.

With his elimination, there faces turned a bit grim. No one wanted to lose a person on there side after all. The battle now had gone way beyond just being a competition with individual interest and these people were giving their all for victory.

"A lot of us are gone," Ren said with frown as he looked around and saw 10-15 students and this was all left of 70% of the students that had come here.

"Roar!!!"

The fight between the two giants continued in the distance.

The Golem was tougher and heavier. Its defense was extremely strong as well. But even with this and the advantage due to the Commanding Beast's injuries, the fight wasn't one sided at all.

The Blood Eating Bat fought like a savage and it clawed against the rocky body of the Golem sending rock and dirt flying all around and light cracks began to emerge on it.

But the Golem didn't seem much affected by it and fought even more vigorously. It's fist really packed a punch and with each hit, it send the Commanding Beast tumbling back.

"Bang!"

The Commanding Beast suddenly opened its mouth and let out a breath at a point blank rang and it struck destroying a huge chunk of rock from the Golem's body.

But the creature had taken the risk and let itself open in doing so, the Golem took advantage of it and even in its devastated state, it grabbed onto the neck of the Commanding Beast and slammed it onto the ground before pounding its face with the other hand.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

Each punk shook the land causing quakes enough for structures even a mile tremble and collapse.

"Scree!!!!!!"

Suddenly the Commanding beast let out a loud screech and send destructive sound waves around turning the rubbles to dust while the cracks on the Golem's body began to increase and another huge chunk of rock broke of its body.

The Golem's movement immediately slowed down a bit and as it did, the Commanding Beast's tail suddenly came from behind and tightened around its neck. It tried get out of the grip but the tail wasn't budging at all and suddenly, the Commanding Beast rose up and unfurling its wing, it took a leap into the sky and rushed above while carrying the Golem along with its tail.

"Whoosh!"

It seemed that fight was nearing its end, the Golem immediately grabbed onto the tail and tried to grapple the Commanding Beast's body up into the air planning to take it down with it as well. But the Commanding Beast was quick on its action. It immediately whipped its tail and it slipped away from the Golem's hand.

When people thought that the Golem was done for, it suddenly opened its mouth and shot a breath attack in mid air.

The Commanding beast was nowhere agile enough to dodge the attack with its injured wing.

In the end, the breath attack pierced through its left wing and vaporized it.

"Scree!!!"

With a painful screech, the Commanding Beast couldn't maintain itself in the air at all and came crashing down as well with the Golem and the two struggled in mid air before clawing and punching each other before crashing down with a thunderous noise.

"Boom!"

The ground immediately split while one of its section rose with the impact and the people around held onto nearby things not to fell into the cracks and get buried.

"Damn! Just what kind of level has this sh*t reached! Were we really supposed to fight those two things?" People couldn't help but curse and this really hit their confidence.

"There is no way those two monster's are alive after that right?" Someone asked.

But when the dust settled, people were left dumbfounded staring at the two monsters who were still standing and glaring at each other. Both were in an extremely miserable condition. The Golem had its body falling apart while, the Blood Eating Bat was covered in blood and seemed to have few part of its body sinking in, which was most likely the result of broken bones.

There was a silence in the air and people realized that the moment had come, the next move would be deciding the victor probably.

"Roar!!!!!!!"

The Golem suddenly let out a terrible roar and without caring for a single thing it ran towards the Commanding Beast before taking a leap into the air as a spike formed from earth appeared in its hand and the Golem went straight diving towards the Commanding Beast.

On the other side, the Commanding beast suddenly pulled its wings inside as the aura around it turned deathly still. It immediately reminded people of the destruction from the previous day when they had tried to slay this thing with Max in lead.

"Everyone come together!! Put up a guard!" Ren shouted and all the student's immediately rushed towards him and those with defensive spells casted it while the rest just sent their mana out and casted a barrier.

"Here those without defensive shield pour your mana in this!" Mr. Cool said as he took the shield off of Lear's back on his suggestion and passed it to Wendy who was probably in the best condition out of everyone.

"Boom!"

The Commanding beast exploded with mana and everything once again turned white.

The area within the radius of a few miles was entirely flattened and the Golem's territory was razed to the ground and nothing was left, the attack had clearly vaporized everything including all the beast's around.

"Bang!"

The shield made of ice shattered.

"That was a close call…" Xenon said as blood gushed out of his mouth. If it wasn't for Ren's timely instruction, they would have been done for. They wouldn't have just suffered injuries but would have been send out all together.

"God! This thing save us today," Wendy said as she looked at the shield which Lear had passed to her to use. After exhausting the remaining people's mana, they had managed to light up the shield's formation to 70% and that had saved them as it was the only thing which had managed to hold on till the end while the rest of defensive spells had collapsed under the might of the Commanding Beast's attack.

"Look!" Someone shouted and everybody's head instantly turned towards the Commanding Beast and the Golem.

A huge earth spike had pierced through the Commanding Beast's chest and it was bleeding heavily. On the other hand, the Golem laid down in front of it with its body in heavy cracks all over, it had almost shattered into pieces.

This had once again proved that a Mythic Tier Beast was above Savage Tier for a reason. Even at its worst, it had managed to beat down the Golem and assert its dominance. It hadn't become the Horde commander for no reason.

'How in hell did Max fought that thing?' Mr. Cool couldn't help but ask it in his mind and he was probably not the only one thinking about this.

"Scree!!!!!!!"

The commanding Beast suddenly let out a terrifying screech which shook the city and everyone held their ears as a sharp pain shot through their ears almost making it bleed.

The next instant, it turned towards the group of humans.

The Final fight had come.....
