"Take your stances." The supervisor instructed.

Both Hever and Kane took their regular stances.

"Begin!" The supervisor commenced the fight.

Immediately, Hever leaped, reaching the very corner of the ring.

This was the strategy that Fae had used. It had failed miserably when she tried it, however, Rui suspected Hever was different.

For one, Hever was a counter-offensive specialist, he would be able to handle invisible impacts much better than Fae did since he was quicker with his muscle memory.

Of course, this did not mean he could effectively counter Kane completely, but it was likely better than standing in the middle of the ring.

Still, Rui did not think highly of Hever's chances. His compatibility against Kane was horrible. One of the worst, in fact.

Because his prowess came solely from the Meteor Swing technique, anything that threatened to bypass the technique as a whole threatened him immensely.

Which is exactly what the Void Step technique did. However, Hever likely had some muscle memory countermeasure for strikes after they impact, so he had some minor hope of throwing Kane out the ring as long as he managed to grab onto Kane after he landed the strike. As long as he fought cleverly, which he was capable of, he might be able to pull a draw.

However, that still wasn't the biggest reason Rui didn't think highly of his chances.

Up on the ring, Kane was stationary. For the first time, he hadn't immediately activated the Void Step technique. It was a bit risky, and he did not want to give Hever's muscle memory a chance.

Instead, he put his right foot behind, and put his hands on the ground in front. Taking a stance resembling sprinter's starting position.

Rui smiled, excited. He was going to witness something he rarely did.

The Godspeed technique.

Through a build-up of energy in the muscles, the Godspeed technique allowed Martial Apprentices to obtain speeds on par with Martial Squires.

It was a technique that allowed Kane to ascend to a higher Realm for just a moment.
