The Bloodline System

Author's Note: Unedited Chapter

"Crimson! Crimson! Crimson! Crimson! Crimson!"

They had been completely astonished by this battle. It was way more spectacular and destructive than any other battle they had seen so far.

"Phew... What would have happened if Handler One didn't ask for the reinforcement of the barrier," One of the handlers stared at the destruction with a slight look of relief.

Six layers of barriers had been destroyed. Usually every stage had only five but Handler One had asked for this one to be reinforced with five extra layers after the battle began.

Had this not been the case, one couldn't tell how the entire arena would have been affected.

< Gustav Crimson (Planet Earth) Wins >

< 1400 Points Attained >

-"These two have to be the strongest captains for sure,"

-"Captain Kriv is the strongest physically even though he lost,"

-"How did Captain Crimson manage to win against that?"

-"Captain Crimson is a beast for sure,"

The spectators discussed about the battle as Gustav moved out of the stage while transforming back into his usual looks.

The spectators wondered if any Captain would have been able to survive such with Captain Kriv overpowered state. They couldn't imagine anyone winning even though they knew a couple of Captains were assumed to be ranked on the same level of strength.

At the last few minutes of the battle, Gustav had substituted himself with one of his energy siphoning spheres.

Since he could conjure an empty energy sphere and make it invisible on command, he placed one quite a distance away and substituted with it when Captain Kriv was about to drive his fist into him.

This substitution technically changed the whole scenario since the sphere absorbed the force from Captain Kriv's punch and then detonated at Gustav's command.

'Strum would have won...' Gustav knew this for sure in his mind as he moved towards Earth's participants position.

Captain Strum ability was one that would have practically render Captain Kriv useless despite his strength. It would definitely be a bad matchup for Captain Kriv if they were ever to challenge each other.

He knew Captain Kriv was physically the most powerful but he also knew he subconsciously underestimated him due to everything he had in his arsenal.

Gustav had decided he wouldn't use Cosmic Superiority under any circumstance before the entire world but at the same time because he knew he possessed such a power, he had an infallible mindset that had been brewing up within subconsciously.

He knew he had to get rid of this mindset since it nearly caused him to lose today despite all he had in his arsenal. He analysed how the entire battle played out in his mind again and realised he made so many errors.

He pointed out areas where he could have applied his abilities better to achieve a much satisfactory result. Gustav took mental note so he wouldn't make the same mistake again in future battles, especially one he wanted badly.

The crowd was still busy cheering for Gustav but he wasn't even paying attention to any of that. Captain Kriv had lost but at the very least, he proved that the Klaxosapes were still the strongest in physical prowess.

...

"Hmm... he was in a pinch yet he didn't make use of it,"

At Indulus Prime spectators area, Captain Irand watched the highlight of Gustav's battle with an intrigued expression.

"Captain Irand... what if he isn't the outworldly?' A team member questioned from the side.

"Remember our Lord claims... the outworldly is amongst us here. He cannot be a part of a group that would have gotten disqualified and so far our investigations point to five people who might be the outworldly.

Amongst the five, only he possesses a 90% probability of being the outworldly and the moment he activates it, the rest of the 10% will be complete," Captain Irand voiced with a serious tone as his eyes gleamed with deep darkness.

"But... what about Captain Strum? Endric Olsov of earth, these two seem to be above the power threshold of young participants just like Captain Crimson is," Another team member voiced.

"While these two are hiding power beyond the threshold... they still do not possess as many abilities as Captain Crimson does. Remember what the Lord said?" Captain Irand voiced in response.

"...The outworldly will possess a variety of abilities apart from the major ones that can control and rewrite fates," The team member voiced in recollection.

"But we cannot go ahead with the assignment till we are a 100% sure that it is him," Another team member stated.

"Hnm... Sooner or later he will use the power. I assume he is trying to hide. He needs to be in a pinch first," Captain Irand said with a suspicious tone.

"How can we get him in a pinch? He has too many abilities that can assist him in getting out of almost every situation," One of them questioned with a tone of bafflement.

"Almost every situation... not every situation... I will have to come up with a situation where he will have no choice but to reveal it," Captain Irand said with a decisive tone.

While the Indulus Prime participants were discussing in their little corner, the battles from this batch were already coming to an end.

Gustav teammates had all welcomed him back minutes earlier and showed their admiration. They never doubted he'd win even when things looked intense.

While they were still in a joyous mood after the win, Gustav didn't stop analysing his battle with Captain Kriv and began coming up with methods to counter the power of an opponent he had intentions of challenging in the future.

In Draconets spectators area the Dracons had set their sights on Gustav as well.

"Can Strum defeat that earthling... Captain Crimson?" One of the Dracons at the front row voiced with a tone of worry.

"Should that even be a question? Just because he is spectacular amongst many others doesn't mean he can defeat Strum," Brons Midely respomded with a slight scoff.

"Hmm Strum is the utimate apex of his peers... I believe in his strength as well," Another well respected Dracon with five arms stated from the side.

"The earth Captain has a pickle with him so their battle is inevitable," Another one of the dracons voiced.

As batches continously played out, the spectators would occasionally bring up Gustav's battle with Captain Kriv.

It still remained the most intense battle since the start of the challenge. Other Captains had come out to battle since then but none of them matched up with the tenacity of how that battle had played out.

The Klaxosapes were still acknowledged as the physically strongest beings in the universe but Gustav was considered a beast too many abilities in his arsenal.

< Angy Vilandrobadia (Planet Earth) Vs Fihdil Quivora ( Planet Wildreck) >

Gustav watched as more of earth participants got their turns to be challengers.

The battles were interesting no doubt and Gustav made sure to still keep taking note.

At the moment Angy was battling with an opponent whose species were known as the fastest in the universe.

Just as Captain Kriv was trying to prove that the Klaxosapes were physically the most powerful, Angy was trying to test her speed with this species.

Shs wanted to know if she was truly qualified to accept the title of the fastest which her friends and teammates had bestowed upon her.

Swwooossshhh~ Swwowoossshh~

Currently, all that could be seen on the screens were silver and yellow streaks which had drawn lines all across the battle stage.

These two were moving so fast that even when the screens above tried to slow the footage of their battle down, it still appeared a bit blurry.

-"What is this? I can't even enjoy the battle,"

-"Ah man this sucks,"

-"Could they slow it down a bit more?"

While some of the spectators complained, people like Gustav were unbothered. Although the two were considerably faster than he was, his perception and sight allowed him to view thier battle without stress.

It was one thing to move as fast and it was a different thing to be able to see as fast. Although, seeing as fast doesn't mean a person would be quick enough to prevent an attack from someone moving faster.

Bam! Bam! Bam!

Occasionally clashes occured between Angy and the yellow being whose lower half happened to be structured like a hornet.

Two stick like legs were attached to her lower half which the Wildrecklin used in moving very quickly, making the world look still around her.

Angy hadn't managed to land a strike that connected since the start of the battle but she was still making use of her base speed which ranged from four hundred to seven hundred thousand feet per second.

They sped across the battle stage, racing along the barrier and even upwards.

Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam!

Angy threw a number of palms sideways as they made their way across the top of the barrier, running upside down like it was nothing.

Her opponent, met Angy thrusts with some of hers, causing them to collide more than a hundred thousand times in just a single second.
