Kahn who was dressed in a normal gear for archers gazed at his opponent. In front of him stood a four-handed mithrans warrior who wore gray armor.

The lower right hand had a sword, the left one had a glowing spear while both the upper hands held a battleaxe together. The warrior in front of Kahn was a beginner master rank individual based on the aura he gave off.

[Not bad for the first battle. I can limit my strength and physical attributes to his level and practice all the skills I recently gained from those dead bodies of grandmasters and the skills I ranked up in archery. He's a perfect target practice.] thought Kahn while concealing his aura of a semi-saint.

The opponent in front of him was far too weak to even sense his real aura but Kahn still chose to conceal his strength in the early stages for various reasons.

"Let the fight begin!" announced the referee.

Both the contestants took their battle stances, the mithrans warrior took a defensive stance while Kahn pulled an arrow out of the quiver as he aimed towards the opponent.

But instead of attacking each other right off the bat, both of them stood in a standoff.

"Hey, I can tell you're hesitant to fight against me since you already know that I'm stronger than you. So how about you forfeit the match?

It will save both of us our time and energy. We still have another match to fight against others. So why not save our strength rather than tire each other out?" spoke the mithrans warrior in a stern tone.

[This bitch!.. Should I go against the plan & swat him in the ground already?] thought Kahn.

He looked at the projection screen in their air where their battle was displayed for the audience.

Since it was the first match, their odds were 50:50 on the scoreboard for their fight.

"Who says you're stronger than me? Let's find out by exchanging blows instead of using words." replied Kahn and shot the first arrow at the opponent.

Swoosh!

An arrow passed right through the position where the mithrans warrior stood.

Tap! Tap! Tap!

The four-legged warrior who seemed like one of the oddballs who preferred to use a different type of weapons to gain attention and display their skills ran swiftly towards Kahn after doing the arrow.

[He's quick!] thought Kahn after the swift and agile movement of the opponent who was fast despite all that heavy armor and weaponry on his person.

Kahn quickly distanced himself from the opponent and shot multiple mana-infused arrows at the opponent while running away.

Boom! Boom!

Multiple small explosions happened as soon as the mithrans used his weapons to block or parry the incoming arrow at him.

An archer's best advantage was the distance and height in a battle while a melee combatant needed to close distance with the target first to actually deal real damage.

Even with the long spear, there was a lot of distance to be covered so the warrior didn't bother to waste time and sped up while trying to dodge the arrows aimed at him.

Since there was only 5 minutes window, both sides did not waste time and started a heated battle.

Boom! Clang!

Swing! Bang!

Each time Kahn shot different mana-infused arrows that worked as his best line of offense, shaking the ground whenever they hit the nearby area or the opponent dodged them.

But given the speed of the master rank opponent and the small size of the battlefield, Kahn was struggling to maintain a distance with time while his opponent charged at him and swung his weapons to seriously injure him from time to time.

Quickshot! Mana burst!

Kahn used some of the basic C rank skills to keep the battle interesting.

The loud explosions on their battlefield garnered the attention of thousands of audiences who were watching hundreds of different battles on projected screens.

"Master rank! Both of them are master rank warriors!" shouted hundreds of people within the audience of millions. And soon, half of the audience present in the arena started paying attention to their battle.

For the normal population, a master rank warrior was someone who could easily fight 20 people at once even at beginning levels. So naturally, they paid more attention towards their battle.

But in reality, it was Kahn using these explosive attack skills to gather their attention.

4 minutes passed in a flash.

[Alright.. The fish has taken the bait. Time to finish this!] he thought.

By no means his opponent was an unskilled fighter given his levels and rank.. But to Kahn.. He was simply too weak.

At his current level, Kahn could kill this mithrans warrior by suffocating him under the pressure of his aura alone. But with everyone watching, he had been keeping a front.

"Prepare to lose!" shouted the warrior and charged at Kahn with all his strength.

Crack!

His battleaxe cracked the ground where Kahn stood as the opponent dodged the attack in the last second.

Kahn quickly appeared behind the opponent and charged two arrows to shoot.

"Got you!"

SWOOSH!

The spear in his lower hand swung horizontally and almost grazed Kahn's abdomen.

Kahn quickly sidestepped and reached at one of the corners of the battlefield.

CRACK!

The floor tile cracked after Kahn barely dodged a swing from the battleaxe in nick of time.

But rather than making some lame monolog like an idiot, the mithrans warrior closed Kahn's exit route with his battleaxe and spear while Kahn on the other end ran out of arrows suddenly.

"Arrgg!" shouted the opponent and jumped high in the air as he swung down his battleaxe vertically, ready to cut the opponent in two with a single blow.

But before the battleaxe could fully land the blow, a high-pitched announcement came from the opponent which suddenly baffled the mithrans warrior.

It was none of than Kahn who raised both his hands in the air and shouted before the axe touched him…

"I've lost!"
