The Martial Unity

Rui continued increasing the intensity of his long-range attacks from a distance, spamming barrages of sonic bullets, trying to slowly gather damage while keeping it away from him at a distance, while also sky-walking at top speed.

Ordinarily, this would be difficult for any grade-ten Martial Squire to overcome. Rui's long-range offense was quite respectable even without Hypertrophic Surge, furthermore, with Gale Force Breathing, and Outer Convergence he could shift around the air quite swiftly. Catching up to him was a remarkably heavy task.

Yet, the Abyssfeeder simply shifted its form. From a concave hemisphere, its shape shifted to that of a disk.

('Coefficient of drag reduced by ninety-six-point-eight percent.') Rui's expression grew more severe. ('It's adapting to aerial maneuvering by becoming more aerodynamic because I took the battle to the air.')

Now, the earlier equation no longer held true. The Abyssfeeder zipped through the air at a much greater speed than Rui could. The human body was not aerodynamic, and there was a limit to what Martial Art techniques could do in that regard.

Nothing beat literally changing the shape of one's body to cut through the air effortlessly, even particularly useful techniques like Gale Force Breathing were not enough. The Abysfeeder shot through the air towards Rui faster than any of the contestants could hope to outrun or tag with attacks, that was why most of them quickly returned to the ground.

But not Rui.
