"It's... over!?"
All the spectators stared at the scene on the light screen, still unable to recover. It felt utterly unreal.
Berkta had actually been smashed senseless by Wang Teng, without any room to fight back.
Especially since their battle had looked exceptionally... simple!
Yes, simple!
It gave people the illusion that they were simply brawling hand-to-hand. It had no visual flair, yet it carried a different kind of shock.
The results of the match appeared above the Light Sphere...
Wang Teng wins!
The crowd finally came to their senses and erupted into discussion.
"Berkta had it pretty rough!"
"He seemed to have been smashed silly."
"Wang Teng's fighting style is always unexpected."
"Just when you think he's about to use that move he used against the Thunder Giant, he immediately switches to something else. Surprised? Unexpected?"
"Does anyone know whether the Rock Giant Wang Teng summoned is a talent or a battle technique? I suddenly want to learn it."
"Probably a battle technique?"
"How could humans possibly have such bizarre talents?"
"Did you notice that the Rock Giant he summoned looks a lot like Berkta after he used Giant Body...?"
"Now that you mention it, it really does. Their sizes are different, and their appearances differ somewhat, but aren't they both basically piles of rocks?"
"The person above summarized that quite brilliantly!"
"Of course. This is what I do."
"Brother, what do you do?"
"Oh, elementary school student."
"...Elementary school student, my ass."
"Sigh, my teachers often make me write self-reflection reports. They all say I'm especially good at summarizing my own mistakes."
"Get lost. This isn't the time to talk about that, okay?"
"No matter what, their battle techniques or talents really are somewhat similar. Could it be..."
"Could it be what?"
"Could they be related?"
"..."
