The tension between them was like a needlepoint meeting a blade of grass, a collision of swords and spears.
At this moment, Shabak was coming with ferocity, but Kexiao didn't retreat. Instead, he advanced, brandishing his Silver Spear like a dragon emerging from the sea, aiming straight for the life gate of Abyss Gundam. An unstoppable aura burst forth from him, piercing and extreme, like a wanton gust of wind or lightning conjured from a clear sky. From the ground up, in the blink of an eye, he met Shabak's offensive head-on without any hint of backing down.
Right then, Kexiao seemed like a different person, wielding an absolute dominion with Silver Spear in hand, an aura of dominance difficult to contend with. In that instant, Kexiao finally showed his imposing side.
However, Shabak's aura seemed not to be outdone by Kexiao's. It was starkly different, emanating a fierce and violent might that was a complete contrast to Kexiao's—as if representing two extremes.
If Kexiao's aura at that moment could be described as silent, cold, like an absolute storm domain suddenly formed in the void, motionless until it moved to shatter the heavens and stir waves with a thunderous roar—its momentum indescribable even as swift as lightning—
Then, Shabak's aura could be summed up as pure fury, like a flame that could not be extinguished, burning incessantly, burning his soul, igniting every one of his angry nerves. To be precise, it was more like a black flame rising from the depths of hell.
The confrontation of these two flames, one white and one black, clashed with each other without restraint, and though the crowd was distant from the arena, they could still faintly feel the shock as if they were there.
This visual spectacle was far more thrilling than watching any Mecha Battle blockbuster because, after all, movies are fictional, capable of making even an eight-year-old appear as a world-conquering hero with the help of special effects.
But the two in the center of the battlefield were fundamentally different. What they fought with were consciousness, experience, rhythm, skill, and the clash of souls.
With a resonant clink, at the moment of their impact, a visible, substantial storm was created between them, spreading outwards from their centers...
Miles away in the spectator zone, the audience could vaguely feel the tremor emanating from inside and outside the arena. According to the Combat Power Tester, they observed a terrifyingly incredible figure—the destruction index of the collision between the two had soared to an awe-inspiring level.
Of course, the data tested by the Combat Power Tester wouldn't be directly displayed, as it was based on personal magnetic fields. However, an observation through the tester revealed that in that instant, both of their body attributes had reached a terrifying hundred thousand.
In a mere instant, both were blasted backwards in opposite directions. Yes, the spectators' eyes weren't deceiving them; even with their formidable physical abilities, it was difficult to withstand such a huge impact.
Yet, during the collision, Kexiao also seized the moment to deliver a lightning kick to the chest of Abyss Gundam, relying entirely on instinct.
At that moment, even with Kexiao's keen combat senses, he barely had time to think. It had been many years since anyone pushed him to this extent, his body seemingly starting to forget its combat instincts.
Now, Kexiao was finally rediscovering something that originally belonged to him.
Uncertainty flickered across Shabak's face.
"This isn't right. I'm already a top pilot. That attack, boosted by my life's potential, should have been supremely overpowering. No one should be able to withstand it. So why, why is this happening..." His thoughts spun, and Shabak was momentarily stunned. This should not be unreasonable.
He was unwilling, deeply unwilling!
Truth be told, Desert Storm hadn't expected Kexiao to be this strong. That attack's destructive power was nothing less than that of Revenge Shadow Rider. Perhaps Kexiao couldn't sustain such bursts of power like Revenge Shadow Rider yet, but it indirectly proved that if it came to a burst, Revenge Shadow Rider might not be able to suppress Kexiao in the short term.
Of course, as to how strong Revenge Shadow Rider truly was, that remained an unknown since no one had seen him fail. Perhaps there were still tricks up his sleeve. From the looks of it, Revenge Shadow Rider tended to be unpredictable with endless moves, but the impression Kexiao gave was one word—strong! Incredibly strong, invincible. With such a presence, could Revenge Shadow Rider really defeat him?
Back then, people might have believed Kexiao inferior to Revenge Shadow Rider in offensive capability, but... just that one move seemed to match up to the former. If this trend continued, it would be better to switch to supporting Kexiao sooner rather than later. He had once again overturned people's understanding of him. The reason his performance had not been recognized before was simply due to his low profile. That one moment just now was certainly not something most pilots could withstand, even those elite aces who had made it to the top 32.
Now, Shabak's emotions neared a state of loss of control; his whole body trembled inexplicably... His fierce face showed both rage and unwillingness!
Abyss Gundam swung its blade again, madly, recklessly, with no regard for his own life, he attacked Savior.
Kexiao's eyes narrowed to slits, and even he had to treat Shabak with caution when facing his state at that moment.
