Boom!
The shockwave from their first clash tore across the battlefield.
Dust, rocks, and debris exploded outward, scattering lesser spiritual beasts like leaves in a storm.
Barren worlds were destroyed.
Trees were uprooted, the ground cracked in deep fissures, and the horizon seemed to ripple under the immense force of their impact.
Every strike unleashed torrents of spiritual energy, lighting up the void with flashes of brilliant color.
Riley moved like a force of nature — precise, disciplined, and relentless.
Every movement had centuries of combat experience baked into it.
Yet Sunny matched him perfectly, his body twisting, flipping, and darting with impossible agility.
One man, one monkey — the disparity in form, age, and stature was apparent, yet it mattered little in the face of skill, cunning, and raw power.
Each blow, each parry, each feint carried a weight that could shatter mountains.
