“Shameless king.” Kai chuckled, mocking him. 

Neptune raised his hand and created an even raging wave that splashed toward Kai. All the water that hit him would turn into a sharp object that could pierce his body.

Hence, Kai surrounded himself with his Oscillation Shield, blowing all the water away. 

Neptune then disappeared, swimming inside the muddy water. 

Although it looked like he didn’t like it, Neptune indeed managed to cover himself using this water. If not because of the protector’s extraordinary hearing, Kai might not be able to find him. 

The moment Neptune appeared, the water rose and formed a pillar to surround Kai.

Unfortunately for him, Kai had already prepared for his attack and used his Teleportation Magic to send him not far away from Neptune. 

“Sonokinetic Blade.” Kai then waved his hand and cut the water pillar, revealing Neptune’s appearance. 

He was leaning to the back and almost flipped to avoid that attack. 

However, a huge shark head emerged from the water, devouring Kai. 

The latter even needed to use his Sound Blast to launch him to the outside. Because of the current, he ended up going in Neptune’s direction, allowing him to gain the advantage. 

Neptune used that chance to appear on top of his head, slamming his staff. 

Kai waved both swords in two directions, trying to scare Neptune away. The right sword aimed at the fish tail while the other sword stopped his staff. 

As if seeing through this plan, Neptune shifted his body to the side, barely avoiding Kai. But a small part of his fish tail was still cut by Kai’s sword. 

In return, Neptune let go of his staff for a second and punched Kai’s stomach.

“Gah!” Kai spat a mouthful of blood as he fell to the water. 

Neptune quickly followed him because he could gain a massive advantage in this water, albeit Kai was better than he expected. Right before hitting the water, Kai managed to stop himself and used his Sound Blast to keep him floating. 

He obviously summoned another head to devour him, but Kai used his Crown Jewel to create a powerful shock wave to disperse all the water around him.

Neptune used that water to form a spherical roof to trap Kai while forming a huge spear that was going to pierce through both the roof and Kai. 

The latter hurriedly teleported to the side, avoiding the spear. 

Neptune waved his spear and formed a water tornado, but Kai clenched his fist and punched forward, generating the shock wave at the same level as the attack he used to kill one of the top fighters from the enemy side. 

The two clashed and both of them neutralized each other. 

Kai used another Teleportation magic to send him to Neptune’s side. 

Clink. 

Neptune’s staff and Kai’s sword collided again as both of them wanted to see who had more power. 

Unfortunately, none of them moved.

Seeing there was no improvement, Neptune controlled his water again while Kai used the Crown Jewel to disperse the water. 

Neptune’s Crown Jewel began to shine as it lifted all the water in the area to form a huge cylindrical barrier that reached the sky. 

The water began to form all sorts of weapons, trying to kill Kai. 

However, another Teleportation magic sent them out of the water pillar. 

After that, Kai let go of his right sword and clenched his fists. He grabbed the Crown Jewel and hit Neptune on the cheek. 

Surprisingly, Neptune also did the same thing and hit Kai on the same spot. 

There was an Oscillation Shield on Kai’s cheek while Neptune also protected himself with the small droplet that seemed to be his spit. 

However, the conclusion came suddenly. Kai’s Magic Circle broke and the spit lost its power at the same time, resulting in both of them hitting each other.

Most of the power might have been lost, but their strength was still enough to blow them away. 

Kai gritted his teeth and glared at Neptune, whose cheek was swollen. “You’re not strong.” 

Neptune snorted and looked at Kai, who had the same condition. “You’re too weak.” 

Kai and Neptune realized that they needed to somehow outsmart the other party to deal some damage. If not, this battle would be dragged for a few hours if not days. 

To do that, Neptune hurriedly dove down inside the water while Kai countered it by teleporting right above the water. 

He punched the water with all his strength, dispersing all the water to find Neptune.

“Kh!” Neptune clicked his tongue and raised his staff, blocking Kai’s punch. Unfortunately, the punch was much stronger than he expected and pushed him to the ground and turned the flatland into a small lake. 

“Tsk.” Neptune tried to control his water, but none of them could push back Kai’s powerful shock wave. 

In order to fight back, Neptune controlled the water from farther away and summoned a huge elemental that extended their hand to Kai. 

Kai realized he couldn’t hit him and retreated using his Sound Blast before cutting the elemental into two. 

After that, Neptune arrived in front of him with water spinning around his hand. 

Kai raised both hands to block that punch, but the water quickly enveloped his hands, tying him up. 

“!!!” Kai widened his eyes as a punch landed on his chest.

“Mhm!” Kai endured the pain as he heard the bone crack. 

Neptune then launched him away before excruciating pain ran through his entire body. His body also flew in a different direction as he coughed blood. 

He realized Kai kicked him at the last second, breaking two ribs. 

“Mhm…” He gritted his teeth, realizing he might not be able to kill Kai unscathed. 

However, the one thing that was definitely unscathed was none other than the land. 

Kai just turned this beautiful place into a flatland then to a lake in this battle while Neptune filled the water. 

Luckily, most of their clashes occurred in the air as they might end up changing the landscape of their surroundings as well. 

Both of them hurriedly regained their composure and charged forward.

Their sword and staff clashed again and split the water below them. 

Neptune summoned another head to swallow Kai, but the latter changed his grip and made a circular slash that cut everything. 

Even Neptune needed to lower his staff to block it. 

After that, Kai grabbed his sword with his mouth and swung it toward Neptune. 

Neptune effortlessly blocked it, but he knew the real attack was coming from the punch that hit him in the chest. 

Neptune spat a mouthful of blood. Before getting blown away, he managed to pierce the side of Kai’s chest with his staff, missing his heart. 

“Kh.” Neptune flew away with regret as three more ribs were broken. The pain was already spread all over his body, so he needed to end this soon. 

Even after defeating Kai, he might need some time to recover. 

Kai, on the other hand, tried to cover his wound to stop the bleeding by wrapping his sleeve to cover the area while pushing it with his Sound Blast. 

Neptune looked at Kai’s state and said, “You’re truly dangerous. You’re prepared to die and will do anything to kill me. I thought you were going to fight conservatively…” 

“Tell me… If I fight you like that, can I win?” Kai snorted.

“No.” Neptune smirked. 

They both were heavily injured, but none of them showed any weakness. 

After a few seconds, they started clashing again.
