As the battle between Tiger and Relta raged on, Shiline descended onto the adjacent ring, her Arua radiating an aura of serenity and beauty. The referee gestured to her opponent, a yellow-haired kid who stood confidently, despite his youthful appearance.
Shiline's eyes narrowed, confusion etched on her face. "Is this some kind of joke? Why am I fighting a kid?" The audience murmured in agreement, their voices filling the stadium.
The referee hesitated before responding, "This is Levin Typhoon, and I assure you, he's no ordinary child." Milian Zenith, seated in the VIP section, snapped his fingers, his Arua commanding the attention of the entire stadium.
Milian's voice boomed, "I know this may seem confusing, but despite being only 14 Levin Typhoon has spent four years in the mechanic and defense facility and has achieved A-rank status in those facilities. As a token of our gratitude for his hard work, we granted his wish to participate in the Rank Rumble. Please treat him with respect."
Shiline's gaze returned to Levin, who was adjusting his yellow glasses. A hint of amusement danced on his lips as he said, "Come on, let's get this started." His dark yellow Arua enveloped him, and he assumed the Arukyo style.
The whistle sounded, and Shiline unleashed a pulse of repulsion. Levin closed his eyes, a look of disappointment crossing his face. His Arua conjured a massive mech, which blocked the wave. Levin tilted his head, his eyes filled with a mix of disappointment and mockery. "Is that all you've got?"
Levin's mech conjured firearms, which floated around him. He charged at Shiline, firing Arua bullets with incredible speed and accuracy. Shiline's eyes widened in surprise as she raised a force barrier to block the bullets.
"What the...?!" Shiline's voice was laced with frustration. "Why are these bullets so powerful? They're coming from a freaking kid!" Levin's mocking tone fueled Shiline's anger,"Dont hold back against me Shiline!"
"Oh, don't worry, kid. This is far from over!" Shiline's speed became overwhelming, her devastating hits sending Levin crashing near the edge of the ring. Levin's mech reappeared, Levin's glasses dropping to his neck, grabbing Shiline with both hands and slamming her into the ground, creating a massive crater.
Levin's determination burned brighter, his yellow eyes gleaming with a fierce inner light. His mech grew stronger, fueled by his unwavering resolve. Shiline burst out of the crater, her Arua flaring wildly as her hair flowed with an ethereal glow.
The two combatants clashed, their powers shaking the very foundations of the stadium. Levin fired an Arua bullet, but Shiline dodged it with ease, punching through the mech and grabbing Levin by the throat. She slammed his face into the ground with incredible force, shattering the ring beneath them.
Shiline's control began to slip, her Arua surging wildly as she charged at Levin. Levin, still reeling from the previous attack, barely managed to conjure a barrier, blocking Shiline's assault.
Levin focused his Arua, using the Arukyo style to enhance his physical strength. With a fierce cry, he punched Shiline right on the chin. Shiline, unfazed, kicked Levin's side with incredible force, the sound of breaking ribs echoing through the stadium.
"JUST STAY DOWN, KID!" Shiline's frustration boiled over, her eyes welling up with tears.
Levin, still smiling, pulled himself back up, his eyes gleaming with determination. "I'm not done yet!" He reconjured his mech, adding two more arms to each side. Shiline sends a tidal wave of repulsive force hoping to put him down for good. The mech clashed with Shiline's tidal wave of repulsive force, destroying everything in its path.
Levin, his fear momentarily forgotten, focused every ounce of strength on surviving the tidle wave of force. However, he failed to notice Shiline charging through the clash, her fury-filled eyes fixed on him.
With a devastating barrage of punches, Shiline destroyed the mech and delivered a crushing close-line to Levin's throat, sending him crashing out of the ring, unconscious. Shiline stood victorious, her chest pained with the thought of momentarily loosing control, her eyes waver at the sight of his unconscious body.
The crowd erupted into cheers, their voices echoing through the stadium as Shiline's name was announced as the winner.
