Both Erson and Ehud disappeared from their location using a Blink spell. In the next second, different kinds of Magic spells began raining from all corners of the arena each aiming towards either the two of them.

Amidst the rain of Magic spells, two figures could be seen clashing together with their own weapons. 

Claaaanggg!

Erson's lance parried Ehud's battle-axe before piercing straight towards the latter's shoulder. 

"Argh!" Ehud exclaimed painfully, but he still waved his hand, making the hilt of his battle-axe hit the side of Erson, causing the latter to once again fly away for a few meters. 

"Cough!" Erson coughed another mouthful of blood, but his face wasn't showing any pain, instead, it was surprisingly showing the look of excitement as he muttered, "This is what I'm talking about!"

Whooooosh!

Erson disappeared from his location again, but this time he wasn't using a Blink spell, but rather a Speed Increase spell. His figure could be seen running in a circle around Ehud with his lance prepared to launch an attack once he found the right opportunity. 

On the other hand, Ehud casted a Magic spell to improve his hearing in order to keep up with the speed of Erson. At first, he thought of casting a Magic spell to improve his vision, but he quickly realized that he shouldn't be moving around right now and following the tempo of Erson so that he wouldn't accidentally give the latter a perfect window of opportunity. 

Quickly understanding what Ehud was planning to do, Erson smiled as he then casted a Nature Clone spell, instantly creating two green-colored humanoid entities. Although the color of the humanoid entities could completely give off his location, but what he was aiming to do here was to confuse the ears of Ehud. 

With three different footstep sounds ringing in Ehud's ears right now, unless he uses his eyes to find Erson's exact whereabouts, then eventually the latter would still be able to find an opportunity to launch his attack.

"Damn you!" Ehud could only swear as he realized that he can't find Erson's exact whereabouts anymore. But, such a situation wasn't that difficult for him to handle. He stomped the hilt of his battle-axe on the ground as he casted, "Sand Avalanche!"

Whoooooooooosh! 

A wave made entirely of sand circled around Ehud and soon began washing to his surrounding.

Unbeknownst to Ehud though, this was actually what Erson was waiting for him to do. 

Erson and the two humanoid entities suddenly stopped running around as they pointed their hands facing Ehud and casted, "Earth Sphere!"

WHOOOOOOOOOSH! 

Earth walls began rising up from the ground as they slowly formed into a sphere. 

The sand wave soon hit the wall, making it do a u-turn, which goes all the way straight back towards Ehud. 

However, before the sand wave hit Ehud, he quickly jumped up. He waved his battle-axe, instantly breaking the earth wall above him. 

Boooom! 

While being high above the arena, Ehud quickly looked for Erson. But to his surprise, the instant he found the latter, he was actually already shooting straight towards him.

Claaaaanggg! 

Ehud swiftly put his battle-axe in front of him to block from Erson's lance attack. 

Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!

Numerous more consecutive attacks from Erson with his lance were launched towards Ehud, making it look like dancing fishes up in the sky. 

While on the other hand, Ehud could only stay passive and continue blocking Erson's attack. A few of the attacks nearly hit him in his vital spot, but fortunately, he was fast enough to parry it. In spite of that though, the attacks still hit his body, specifically at his non-vital spots.

Of course, Ehud wasn't thinking of staying passive forever. While blocking Erson's attack, he would occasionally launch his own attack as well. Though, in order to make his attack quick and effective, he could only use the hilt of his battle-axe once more. This was what really depressed him the most because up until this moment, he had never actually hit Erson with the head of his battle-axe. 

Well, Erson would naturally prevent Ehud from doing that. After all, receiving a direct hit from the battle-axe would be really fatal, or worst, deadly attack. In fact, it might even cause him to instantly get defeated in this fight, because, unlike Ehud, his body would not be able to take such kind of damage.

Erson and Ehud continued to exchange attacks as they slowly fall to the marble ground of the arena.

Meanwhile, inside the VIP room of Leo and the others. 

Leo turned to look at Elmont as he said, "It seems like your fighter is being suppressed from the start of the battle up until now,"

"Yeah, and I'm really wondering the reason for this," Elmont replied, a bit suspicious at the fight he's watching. He can't help but ask, "Are you really sure that you didn't fix this fight?"

"Of course not," Leo quickly shook his head in rejection. But he still kindly explained to Elmont, "Sometimes, in a fight, strength and power will not always give you an advantage,"

Elmont turned to look at Leo and asked, "What do you mean?" 

In Elmont's experience, the winner of the majority of the battles he had seen and participated in up until today completely depends on who has the most strength and power, of course, that includes Magic Power as well. In the situation of Erson and Ehud, the latter clearly possessed those qualities, but surprisingly he was actually being hugely suppressed with almost no chance to launch his own counter-attack. He really can't find the exact reason why this is the case for Ehud.

"I'm guessing that you have already noticed that all of Ehud's attack is full of strength and power, right? But the only problem is, his fighting style is mainly relying on brute force. Powerful attacks, tough defenses, but lacks good combat techniques to completely integrate the two advantages. Although Ehud is smart and capable enough since he also knows how to effectively use his strength and power against Erson, but Erson is still much better than Ehud as he has a variety of combat techniques to counter all of Ehud's attacks," Leo said as he pointed towards Erson, he continued, "Look at Erson right now, his lance attack might seem like he is just randomly piercing and swinging, but if you observe closely, you will notice that he is actually using all of Ehud's advantages and guiding it into a situation where he could have the advantage instead,"

"Erson would launch all of his attacks to the left, making Ehud focus all of his defenses and counterattacks over there, then he would suddenly launch an attack to the right, completely catching Ehud off-guard. Although all of his attacks still hit non-vital parts of Ehud in the end, that is mainly because the latter possessed the strength and power to be able to swiftly parry the attack. If he didn't have any of those, then all of those attacks would have long hit a lot of his vital spots, causing him to lose this battle already," 

Indeed, that was the situation between Erson against Ehud right now. And this was also what he had thought about the reason why Erson would win against Ehud, specifically combat techniques.

Techniques is really important in a fight, even more so compared to strength, power, or whatsoever. It is what integrates all the talents of a person into one, making that person even more powerful than what he already was.

Ehud might have above-average strength and power, which naturally gives him a considerable degree of advantage against the majority of the Mages. But if the Mage he's fighting against possessed a lot of techniques, especially combat techniques, just like Erson, then most likely they would use Ehud's advantages to their own advantage instead. 

It is exactly similar to when Erson would guide Ehud into executing an action that seems to be advantageous for the latter, but then he would unexpectedly use those advantages to his own advantage when launching his attack. 

Such an example was what had happened right at the very beginning of the fight. When Ehud arrived in front of Erson and was intending to hit the latter with his battle-axe, Erson used the weight of the battle-axe that Ehud was putting in it so as to easily parry the attack which consequently also caused Ehud to be open wide in front, thus allowing him to use his other hand to launch a Flaming Shot spell. 

Another example was when Erson used to his advantage that time when Ehud was still in the middle of his motion after casting the Earthquake spell.

And the most recent example was when Erson set up Ehud into using Sand Avalanche spell to attack himself.

Although all of those attacks were still not able to fully achieve what Erson was aiming to do, that was only because Ehud possessed strength and power to compensate every time he was put into a disadvantageous situation.

This was the exact reason why he had also mentioned that Ehud is smart and capable enough as he knows how to effectively use his strength and power against Erson.

"Ohhh," Elmont quickly understood what Leo meant with his words. Simply put, all of Ehud's actions were all about using brute force, showing his lack of techniques. This, in turn, gave a lot of advantages to Erson, allowing him to suppressed Ehud up until now. 

"It seems like the fight is coming to its end," Leo said after seeing Ehud flying away after receiving Erson's attack.
