Infinite Paths: The Raging Phoenix

When the giant recovered from his own attack against the wall, he turned and saw Rain ready to face him. He readily approached and then tried to punch Rain with his massive fists, but then Rain punched back.

The impact reverberated throughout the arena as the giant beastman's and Rain's fists met in a thunderous collision. The resulting noise was a deafening blend of thunder and the roar of a falling avalanche, causing the spectators' ears to ring.

The immense force generated by the clash sent shockwaves rippling through the air, creating visible disturbances akin to ripples on the surface of water after a stone's impact. The arena floor was churned up, filling the air with dust and debris, intensifying the spectacle.

The crowd watched in awe as the two mighty punches collided, showcasing an extraordinary display of unbridled strength and power.

The people saw that Rain was strong, but they still couldn't believe that Rain was actually fighting against the giant minotaur… no one in their kingdom was able to do that aside from their king…

"He doesn't look that bothered…" Rain thought. "He still isn't showing his true power."

Rain knew that the opponent probably had some tricks up his sleeve, or maybe he could only show his true power when he was angry… Either way, it was probably for the best if Rain didn't give him time to use his full power.

The giant beastmen kept attacking Rain with punches while fixing his stance and slowly increased the number of hits. Still, Rain punched each one of them with equal force without moving from the spot… eventually, it felt like the entire arena might collapse thanks to the endless trembling that followed it.

Jori and Reca exchanged worried glances while observing the intense exchange of punches between Rain and the towering beastman.

"That punch... It's like a clash of titans. Rain's fighting style is different from what we've seen before. But can he keep at it?" Jori furrowed his brow and asked.

"I also think that this can be a problem... Rain possesses incredible strength, but this level of fighting is unusual for him. And he hasn't employed any of his magic abilities yet." Reca nodded, her gaze fixed on the battle.

"That's what troubles me. Rain usually has a few tricks up his sleeve, but he's relying solely on his physical prowess. I can't help but wonder why." Jori scratched his head while squinting his eyes.

As they continued to watch, their apprehension deepened with each passing moment. Rain and the massive beastman engaged in their fierce duel within the arena, leaving Jori and Reca increasingly uncertain about Rain's strategy.

At some point, the giant beastman got tired of attacking like that… since the area of Rain's fists was smaller, he caused more damage in a concentrated area. Thanks to that, the giant beastman stepped away and then tried to stomp Rain.

Rain jumped from one side to the other and avoided the hits, making the opponent grow impatient. Before long, the giant beastman stomped so hard the ground that the entire arena trembled, and then it happened…

With a thunderous howl that resonated throughout the arena, the colossal beastman expressed his agony and fury. Raising one of his immense feet from the ground, a sudden rush of blood streamed forth from a concealed wound, staining the arena's silver surface a deep, ominous red.

The audience, gripped by astonishment and confusion, murmured in puzzlement as they tried to comprehend the sudden turn of events. All eyes remained fixed upon the towering beastman, whose once-domineering presence had now dwindled into a pitiful and bloodied figure, a clear departure from his previous bravado.

There was nothing under the feet of the opponent, and there was nothing inside either. The giant beastman checked that, and he felt troubled, but he felt much more annoyed than that, he glared at Rain, and his body began to emit some steam out of sheer anger.

The opponent soon began to carefully walk toward Rain. Despite his anger, he knew that he couldn't make the same mistake again… still, before long, he also assumed a fighting stance, and his body began to emit more heat.

Rain raised his eyebrows while looking at that… it didn't seem like a magic ability or a skill that his tribe would have. Rain didn't have enough information about the beastmen to assume that, so he wasn't one hundred percent sure.

Regardless, all of a sudden, the giant beastman suddenly punched the air, and a sphere of hot air in the shape of a fist was fired at Rain. He didn't have time to dodge it…

As the enormous fist-shaped air sphere rocketed toward Rain, the atmosphere in the arena grew increasingly tense. Rain reacted swiftly, raising his forearm guards to intercept the impending explosion. The collision was tremendous, resulting in a powerful explosion that enveloped Rain.

The sheer force of the impact ripped away a significant portion of his clothing, leaving him exposed and vulnerable. His complexion turned crimson, not due to the influence of Limit Breaker but rather from the searing heat generated by the attack. The audience watched in awe as the battle's intensity continued to escalate, gasping at the spectacle before them.

Steam began to leave Rain's body as well, but he didn't have time to waste… the giant began to punch the air again and again and tried to hit him. While the attacks didn't have much weight, they certainly had speed… Rain had to use limit breaker while jumping away to avoid them completely… Even when he was on the other side of the arena, he had a hard time dodging them.

"It seems that he won't run out of energy anytime soon…" Rain thought while watching the opponent attacking nonstop. "I can only take so many of those attacks considering the damage that I already suffered… and then there is the beast king… I can't let him learn too much about me."
