In the end, after a fierce assault, the mysterious warrior was successfully defeated by Enzo.
He collapsed to the ground, gasping for breath, his eyes full of resentment.
"You've lost," Enzo said coldly.
The mysterious warrior struggled to his feet, looked at Enzo, and said, "Your team from Alfa Planet is indeed strong, but do you really think this is the end?"
"What do you mean?" Enzo asked, puzzled.
"My name is Hitler Churchill," the man said. "I suppose you've heard of me."
Enzo shook his head, indicating that he had no idea.
Hitler Churchill gave a cold smile and said, "Let me introduce myself. My name is Hitler Churchill, and I come from Shadow Planet. Our planet has always been hidden deep within the cosmos, unknown to outsiders. But our strength is the greatest in the entire Star League."
Enzo furrowed his brows. He had never heard of this name, nor had he ever heard of Shadow Planet. However, from Hitler Churchill's words, he could sense a powerful confidence and a looming threat.
"What do you want?" Enzo asked warily.
Hitler Churchill gave a slight smile and said, "It's simple. I want to make a deal with you."
"A deal? What kind of deal?" Enzo asked, confused.
Hitler Churchill slowly replied, "I know your Alfa Planet has been seeking a greater position and voice in the Star League. I can help you achieve that, but you must agree to one condition."
"What condition?" Enzo's mind stirred, though he remained cautious.
Hitler Churchill said, "I want your Alfa Planet to become an ally of Shadow Planet, and together, we will confront the other planets."
At these words, Enzo's expression darkened. He hadn't expected Hitler Churchill to propose such a condition. Becoming an ally of Shadow Planet would mean becoming enemies with the other planets—something Enzo absolutely couldn't accept.
"Impossible," Enzo refused without hesitation. "Our Alfa Planet will not turn against other planets, and we will never become the ally of any planet."
Hitler Churchill scoffed, saying, "Enzo, don't be so hasty to refuse. Think carefully. With the support of Shadow Planet, your Alfa Planet's position in the Star League will be unmatched. I can guarantee that no other planet will dare to provoke you."
Enzo shook his head firmly and said, "Our Alfa Planet relies on its own strength, not the support of other planets. We will not become anyone's puppet, and we will never betray our principles and beliefs."
Hitler Churchill's expression darkened as he saw Enzo's refusal. He hadn't expected Enzo to reject his proposal so resolutely.
"Fine," Hitler Churchill said coldly, "If you're going to be so ungrateful, then don't say I didn't warn you."
With that, he turned and left the battlefield, disappearing from sight.
Enzo watched as Hitler Churchill walked away, a sense of ominous foreboding rising in his chest. He knew that this Hitler Churchill would not let the matter go so easily. Enzo had to be ready for whatever was coming next.
"Everyone, stay alert," Enzo said to his teammates. "This Hitler Churchill won't back down. We have to be extra cautious and watch for any ambush."
His team nodded in agreement, understanding the gravity of the situation. They knew the upcoming matches would be tougher and more dangerous, but they were prepared to face any challenge.
Just then, the referee's voice rang out again, "The first round of the team brawl is over. The next event is the arena match. Teams, please get ready."
Upon hearing this, Enzo immediately gathered his team to discuss their tactics and strategy. They knew that only through unity and teamwork could they overcome the difficulties ahead and secure the final victory.
...
The arena match began.
Alfa Planet's team was scheduled to be the first to compete, and their opponents were from Gamma Planet.
The Gamma Planet team was known for their long-range attacks and speed. Their archery skills were incredibly precise, making it difficult to defend against their shots. Enzo observed their opponents preparing for battle, and a sense of worry crept into his mind.
"Everyone, make sure to coordinate and communicate well," Enzo whispered to his teammates. "Don't let their speed throw us off our rhythm."
The team members nodded, signaling that they understood, and began positioning themselves according to their tactical plan.
Jordan stood at the forefront, tasked with drawing the opponents' attention;
Bruce Brown hid in the shadows, ready to use Shadow Magic for a surprise attack; Kehl took position at a distance, preparing to provide long-range support with his precise archery; Liliana, the team's core strategist, would coordinate the entire battle.
With a sharp whistle from the referee, the match officially began!
The Gamma Planet team immediately launched their assault, their arrows raining down like a storm upon Alfa Planet's team.
Jordan swung his sword, deflecting the arrows as best as he could while trying to close the distance and engage in close combat. However, the Gamma team's speed was remarkable, and Jordan found it difficult to keep up with them.
At that moment, Bruce Brown suddenly unleashed Shadow Ambush! His figure flickered, and he appeared behind one of the Gamma Planet team members, delivering a powerful punch that sent the opponent crashing to the ground.
However, the other Gamma Planet team members immediately reacted, charging toward Bruce Brown with ferocity. Bruce Brown had no choice but to quickly retreat to avoid being surrounded.
Kehl, on the other hand, used his precise archery skills to continuously support his teammates. His arrows struck the vital points of Gamma Planet team members again and again. However, the speed of the Gamma team was simply too fast, and Kehl found it difficult to fully block their offensive.
Liliana kept her eyes fixed on every detail of the battlefield, constantly directing her teammates to coordinate and launch attacks. Her leadership allowed Alfa Planet's team to regain their rhythm and start to exert some pressure on the Gamma Planet team.
But just as the match reached its boiling point, something unexpected happened!
A team member from Gamma Planet suddenly burst forward with incredible speed, using his astonishing agility to break through Alfa Planet's defenses and charge straight for Liliana!
"Liliana, watch out!" Enzo shouted loudly.
However, Liliana had no time to react. The Gamma team member was like a lightning bolt, rushing up to her and thrusting his sword toward her chest!
In that critical moment, a figure suddenly appeared in front of Liliana—Cruise Main.
Cruise Main took the blow, using his body to block the strike. The sword pierced into him, and blood instantly soaked his clothes. He collapsed to the ground in pain, but his eyes still glinted with determination.
"Cruise!" Liliana cried out in horror.
The other team members rushed over, fury in their eyes as they glared at the Gamma team member who had attacked.
"How dare you hurt our teammate!" Jordan roared. "You'll pay for this!"
With that, he swung his sword and charged toward the Gamma team member. The rest of the team also launched their attacks, vowing to avenge Cruise!
Seeing this, the Gamma Planet team didn't back down and quickly retaliated.
The two teams clashed in a brutal and fierce battle on the arena floor!
Enzo looked at Cruise Main lying on the ground, a wave of anger rising within him. He swiftly drew on the elemental energy within his body and charged toward the Gamma team member.
"Stop!" Enzo shouted, and a powerful wave of energy shot from his hands, knocking the Gamma team member back several steps.
The rest of the team quickly surrounded Cruise Main, protecting him in the center. Liliana hurriedly took out a healing potion and began emergency treatment for Cruise Main.
"Cruise, how are you?" Liliana asked anxiously.
Cruise Main's face was pale, but he still managed to force a faint smile. "I'm fine, Liliana. It's just a few injuries, don't worry about me."
Enzo looked at Cruise Main, filled with guilt and anger. He knew that if it hadn't been for protecting Liliana, Cruise Main wouldn't have been hurt so severely.
"Everyone, calm down." Enzo took a deep breath, trying to steady his emotions. "Now is not the time for revenge. We need to make sure Cruise is safe first."
The team nodded, immediately starting to provide more support and protection for Cruise Main. Liliana continued her treatment, hoping to stabilize his injuries as quickly as possible.
The spectators and judges outside the arena were equally shocked by the scene. They hadn't expected the match to turn so intense and dangerous so suddenly.
"Match paused!" the referee announced loudly. "The contestant is injured and needs immediate medical attention."
With the referee's declaration, the battle on the arena floor temporarily ceased. The Gamma Planet team retreated to their rest area, casting glances at the injured Cruise Main, their expressions a mix of smugness and concern.
Enzo immediately contacted the spaceship, requesting an urgent transfer for Cruise Main back to Alfa Planet for treatment. He knew that only with professional medical care would Cruise Main be able to recover quickly.
While waiting for the spaceship to arrive, Enzo and his team gathered around Cruise Main, offering comfort and encouragement. They knew that what Cruise Main needed now was their support and presence.
"Cruise, you have to hang in there." Liliana held Cruise Main's hand tightly and said, "We'll stay by your side until you're fully recovered."
Cruise Main smiled and nodded. "Thank you all. With you by my side, I feel much better."
Soon after, the spaceship finally arrived at the arena. The medical personnel quickly lifted Cruise Main onto the ship, providing initial treatment and stabilizing his condition. Enzo and the team watched as the ship departed, silently praying for Cruise Main's recovery.
"Everyone, listen to me." Enzo turned to his team. "Cruise is injured, but we can't let that stop us from continuing the match. We fight for him, and we fight for the honor of Alfa Planet. We will keep going."
