Chapter 9 - CHAPTER 9 - THE PRIDE OF PLANET SABIRU

The genius battles were broadcast freely to all the participating races and clans. And due to the advancement of technology, every capital city of every clan on a planet was mandated to have a giant projector that could project the ongoing battles into the city's skies, and the capital of Makeke was no exception. The fight of Solanky was broadcast, and all the members of the Bayoka clan saw it and were full of emotions and were in a state of shock, because the young guy from the outskirts of the Makeke jungle was now the most dazzling among them in the younger generation. The video was shown to the fifth elder, and the movement technique Solanky showcased shocked him the most; he became jealous and sent the nurse who was treating his injuries away in rage. He clenched his fist, but he later calmed himself down.

Solanky's mother was the proudest of them all as her long-time dream was been fulfilled right before her eyes, the queen approached her, "Your eminence," she bowed respectfully. The queen asked her to get on her feet and congratulated her on having another child like Elisa. The elites who all maltreated Solanky had a sense of guilt wash over them, and they felt mediocre as compared to someone like Solanky.

In the Suspended Worlds secret region, all clans participating in the competition had resting quarters where the competitors and their companions could rest after a battle, and these resting quarters were found on the countless suspended rock fragments. In the resting quarters, the grand elder summoned Solanky, Barusi, and Elisa to discuss their upcoming battle, which required three members from each clan and race to team up and engage in a group survival battle to test their teamwork skills.

The king took out a glass screen, and on the screen, it showed the stats of all the competitors and all their abilities and power levels. He pinched the screen and swiped it towards a wall, and the content of the screen was projected onto the wall. In the next part of the competition, the three members were transferred to an independent space, which was a forest, and were tasked to protect three separate balls which was linked to them from being stolen or destroyed by their opponents.

The king scrolled through the list of participants and stopped at a group of participants who were from Purple Giant Planet. The participants of this planet were regarded as the cream on top of the crop, they were taller and bulkier than the other clans from the fiery crimson star system and it was rumored that their head ancestor was a powerful being who was half a step into the dimensional god level so they were highly respected in the star region.

And their strongest participant was called Kofis, he had instantly won all his battles with brute strength as he was four times stronger than the regular half god and 200 times stronger than a high-level mortal, and both of his colleagues were 2.6 times stronger than other half gods. Elisa, Barusi, and Solanky were all shocked as they watched the stats and abilities of the Purple Giant Planet contestants.

Elena entered the room and said, "the bloodline of the people of the purple giant race is imbued with a different form of energy that only the elementary gods and above are filled with". The grand elder was shocked and asked Elena in a shocked tone, "Could it be…" Elena nodded and said "Yes, half gods of the race can feel the spiritual energies around them, and with the help of their strong bodies and genetic make-up they can use spiritual energy, but it is not as good compared to an elementary god, but for a being at the half god level a sliver of spiritual energy in their bodies can grant them perfect control over their bodies as compared to other half gods with no sliver of spiritual energy in their bodies."

After saying this, the grand elder and king were more amazed than Solanky and the others because they knew spiritual energy was the only thing that distinguished an elementary god from a half god, as it enhanced their awareness and the control they had of their surroundings.

Elena said, "No need to worry, because they can only access the spiritual energy in their bodies and bloods for only a hundred breaths of time, and after it wears off from their bloodlines, but I think they already know their shortcomings so they will do everything possible to cover that." The grand elder then said "other than these three from the Purple Giant Planet, I believe we can advance further into this competition, so now I will delegate the roles to each one of you". Elena said "wait I have a better idea in winning this competition, Elisa you will be the main attacker you will be the spear, Barusi will be the scout you will monitor the movement of the opponent and act as a decoy and Solanky will always be at base to defend your balls". The trio nodded and went to their rooms to rest and wait for the next day.

The day arrived with a bustling crowd trooping in from all corners of the fiery crimson star system to witness the grand finale of the competition. The representatives of the Bayoka had already left their living quarters to the arena, on the arena all the qualified clans' participants had already gathered on the stages facing their opponents and waited to be teleported to the trial grounds. The moderator appeared in mid-air, standing on a floating disk, and announced the commencement of the competition.

 All the participants were teleported to their forest trial grounds. Solanky, Elisa, and Barusi all stacked to the previous arrangement and were able to eliminate all their opponents swiftly, which made them the first team to qualify for the finals.

They were given ten minutes to rest and prepare for the finals, back in planet Sabiru all the beings who lived there were excited because over the centuries they were insignificant in the competitions and other beings from the neighboring planets used them as laughing stalks but now they had received redemption and proved that the best in their star system hailed from the planet they previously despised.

The contestants of the purple giant planet also qualified for the finals and were teleported to the forest where the Bayoka clan members were. They were given the same time to rest and prepare, the moderator said "in this final all the previous rules apply, the competition begins now" the moment he said this Kofis dashed forward and all the trees in front of him were leveled at once and a member on his team sat down the moment Solanky saw this he said "Not good, he is gathering the spiritual energy in his body, they want to finish it in an instant" Solanky signaled Barusi to distract Kofis while he handles the other two.

Barusi nodded, and in an instant, they switched roles. Solanky was now the spear, and Barusi became the decoy and scout, and the defense was left to Elisa. Solanky activated a raised his suppressed energies to 210 times and activated a movement technique which belonged to the dragon ape and swung through the branches of the trees in the forest, he immediately reached the purple giant, who was gathering spiritual energy, he pretended to launch a sneak attack to lure the last hidden giant out.

His plan worked, and the other purple giant showed herself and she carried two of the balls. Solanky smiled and increased his speed to the limit and partially activated the bloodline of the golden hoofed horse and snatched the balls from the purple giant at a terrifying speed she couldn't react to and crushed one of the balls in his hand. The moment he crushed it, the purple giant sitting on the floor was teleported out of the space, meaning he was eliminated.

Kofis watched his wristband and noticed his side lacked one contestant. Barusi smiled, and got carried away, and he was eliminated by Kofis, who crushed his ball, which he mistakenly revealed when he was running from him.

Solanky shook his head as he recalled requesting Barusi's ball before the match began, but he refused as he thought Solanky was acting proud. Solanky took a stone and threw it towards where Elisa was to signal her to approach him, but Kofis rushed forward to block her. He got a notification on his wristband that the last person on his side had also been eliminated. This shocked him greatly as he knew how powerful the two were but they eliminated in just ten breaths of time, Elisa seized the opportunity as Kofis had already used 80 breaths of spiritual energy and recognized where Kofis kept his ball and she scooped out the dust of the ground and threw it into the face of Kofis to disrupt his vision and she quickly lashed out her long tail at the ball and smashed it.

This greatly shocked all the people in the arena and those who watched it on the sky projections. The arena was in an uproar as they realized a woman who was weaker used her cunningness to defeat the almighty Kofis. The moderator declared that the Bayoka clan had won the century's competition, the people in the arena all stood up clapped for Elisa for her decisiveness when she unexpectedly encountered Kofis. Kofis was teleported out and he shook his head because he knew he wasn't that decisive, and he began to admire Elisa for that.
