Before the start of the battle, Regina gave Bloed's group five minutes to prepare themselves.
Thus, Bloed's group of six gathered in a corner to talk about the strategy during the battle against Regina.
Or at least that was supposed to happen.
Instead, they stood there awkwardly looking at each other faces.
But Bloed realized sothing from their expressions.
Most of them were confident in their victory.
Even Liu Ying seed rather confident they could win.
Bloed did not think the sa, though.
It was because Bloed had sparred against Regina many tis.
In fact, when Bloed still lived in Camilla's spaceship, most of the ti Regina was in charge of his combat training.
Every ti, Regina suppressed her cultivation to Bloed's level And every ti, Bloed lost.
Yes, Bloed did not manage to win even once. Even although their cultivation was the sa, it was as though they were on completely different levels.
The way Regina used her psychic power was much better than Bloed. It was worlds apart from him.
Furthermore, Regina was a Valkyrie, a war machine. She was created to fight and kill the greatest enemies of the Human Confederation.
The number of combat styles, tactics, and thods she knew was countless.
Even Bloed's greatest advantage, his deduction abilities, were weaker than Regina's deduction abilities as a Valkyrie.
Even with the six of them fighting her together, Bloed thought their chances of winning did not surpass forty percent.
Thus, when he saw their confident expressions, he decided to warn them.
"Guys, I think you are underestimating her too much."
The other five were startled. They looked at Bloed confused by his words.
"Do you an we will lose?" Greta, the deerkin girl, asked with a frown.
"Think about it, do you think a saint is a fool? If she proposed this fight, it's because she has confidence in herself Plus, I have fought her before at the sa level, and believe , she is very strong."
The other five fell silent. After several seconds, Liu Ying broke the silence and nodded.
" Bloed is right. We should be careful."
"Right, it's better to be cautious." Rhone, the batkin, agreed. "She is a saint after all."
"Should we make a plan then?" Asked Rana.
Bloed thought for a mont before shaking his head. "It doesn't matter. We are not used to fighting together anyway. If we try to cooperate rashly, we will only end interfering with each other."
"You are right." Greta nodded. "Then, we can only do our best and try to win."
Bloed nodded. He then looked at the only person that had not spoken until now.
"Do you have any opinion, Atai?"
Atai shook his head silently, signaling he had nothing more to add.
The five minutes ca to an end at that mont. The six of them then walked towards the training grounds and stood opposite to Regina.
In the way, Rana could not help but mutter sothing.
" The king sure invested a lot in this training."
Bloed looked at her curiously. "What do you an?"
"Just think about it. Of our four teachers, three are demigods. Moreover, Miss Regina is a saint and Miss Even is at Apotheosis. Even Mr. Tenen, the weakest of the four, is considered as one of the strongest people below demigods. I heard he is strong enough to kill transcendent demigods (S-Grade) easily."
Bloed nodded. Certainly, a lineup like this just to teach them was very luxurious.
But it showed how important the mines were for the Great Savannah's king.
Regina looked at the six of them with an expressionless look before extending her hand and materializing an energy blade on it.
"You can start. I advise you to give your all from the start. Otherwise, you will not know how you were defeated."
None of the six was arrogant at this point in ti. Following Regina's suggestion, they got ready to go all out.
Even Bloed summoned his three pets, ready to give his all in the battle.
When Regina saw they were ready, she smiled slightly.
"I'll start then."
Then, she stomped the ground.
Following that, her body flew towards the group.
The six of them reacted instantly. As though they had agreed beforehand, they split in different directions to avoid Regina's charge.
At the sa ti, they prepared their attacks.
Atai aid his bow, Rana cast a spell, Bloed fired his gun, Rhone howled a sonic attack, Greta shot several blades of wind, and Liu Ying charged towards her.
However, the results were out of their expectations.
Reina's body accelerated suddenly, turning twice as fast as before and making the attacks miss her. Then, she slashed towards the person closest to her, Liu Ying!
Liu Ying did not back down. Clenching her fist, she unleashed a powerful punch towards the blade.
But to his surprise, the blade disappeared suddenly, and her punch missed, making her lose her balance!
Before Liu Ying could react, Regina's palm arrived at her abdon.
Then
*Boom!*
Liu Ying's body was sent flying away, crashing against the wall of the training ground and fainting imdiately.
Such a result stunned the other five.
Liu Ying had been defeated less than one second after the start of the battle.
But it was not the end. Without even checking Liu Ying's state, Regina changed her direction, charging this ti towards Greta!
Greta's expression changed. Her body instinctively moved by itself, thrusting her spear in Regina's direction and unleashing several blades of wind against her.
But suddenly, a circle of light pulsed around Regina, stopping the blades of wind. At the sa ti, a blade rematerialized in her hand, clashing with Greta's spear.
*Clang!*
The spear and the blade clashed, but strangely, the blade pushed the spear aside easily. It then seed to beco longer and stabbed towards Greta's chest!
Greta's expression paled. But when she thought she was going to be defeated
*Whoosh!*
A wall of tallic sand appeared in front of her, stopping the blade in its tracks.
It was Leto!
Regina's lips curved up. She then looked playfully towards her master and smirked.
"Bad move, master."
Bloed's expression changed imdiately. Without hesitation, he ducked down!
The next instant, a giant blade of energy cut the place where his chest was just one mont ago.
At so point, a giant energy blade had materialized in Regina's second hand. She used it to unleash an attack that cut through half of the training grounds.
And although Bloed's managed to avoid it, not everybody was so fortunate.
Rana, who was in the middle of casting a powerful spell, was unable to react and received the entire grunt of the attack, collapsing imdiately.
Bloed did not know if she was alive or dead, but he did not have ti to care now.
Because Regina was attacking again.
"Dammit!" Cursing in his mind, Bloed jumped aside and ordered Oculus to open fire. At the sa ti, he turned his gun into the blaster mode and started to shot as well.
Regina did not dare to receive the attacks of Bloed bullet. She skillfully jumped backward and ran through the training grounds, avoiding the bullets. At the sa ti, she cast an energy shield to stop an arrow that Atai had shot at so point.
Imdiately afterward, she created several energy arrows and shot them towards Oculus.
*Boom!*
The arrows exploded, blowing Oculus away. Oculus started to reform in the next instant, however, it was forced to stop its barrage of bullets for a brief mont.
Using that opportunity, Regina attacked the batkin.
Strangely, although Rhone had been using his sonic attack since a while ago, it was useless against Regina.
Through his energy vision, Bloed could see that Regina was constantly creating invisible energy waves to counter Rhone's soundwaves.
Rhone did not know that, though. Thus, he intensified the power of his soundwaves expecting to injure Regina this way.
It was a bad choice.
"Move away!" Bloed shouted, but it was too late.
Without even changing her expression, Regina jumped towards him and punched towards his chest.
Rhone flapped his wings and tried to avoid her, but suddenly, he felt his body becoming stiff for an instant.
And in that instant, Regina's punch reached him, sending him flying.
Now, only three people remained.
Bloed, Greta, and Atai looked at Regina gravely. They then nodded at each other, deciding to charge towards Regina at the sa ti.
Regina received them indifferently and materialized a blade in each hand, not hesitating to fight the three of them head-on.
When they were about to clash, though, Regina's figure trembled.
Then, another two Reginas appeared in the field of battle.
Like that, the three Reginas attacked each an enemy.
Bloed did not panic, though. His eyes easily allowed him to discover that only one Regina, the one attacking Greta, was real.
However, neither Atai nor Greta knew that.
Thus, Atai and Greta stopped abruptly to face the figure coming towards them.
'Damn it!' Bloed cursed in his mind. He realized Regina's intent.
She had turned a battle of three against one into a one against one battle.
While Atai and he were being stopped by her clones, her true self would take care of Greta.
Fortunately, Bloed managed to see through her plan and send Leto to defend Greta.
But then, his eyes widened.
Through his eyes, he saw how Regina's energy clones turned bright and
*Boom!*
Two explosions happened on the training grounds.
Fortunately, Bloed managed to see through Regina's clones' self-destruction and jumped away at the last second. He also called Leto back and used it as a shield.
Unfortunately, it ant he was unable to help Greta.
And as expected, Regina used that ti to knock Greta out with a kick.
Moreover, Atai had been injured by the clone's explosion. Although he managed to avoid most of it, his right leg was limping.
Due to that, he was unable to endure for long even with Bloed's help.
Less than five seconds later, he was also defeated.
Bloed smiled wryly. In the end, only Regina and he remained standing.
Regina's lips curved up. "What are you going to do, master?"
Bloed smiled wryly and readied his saber. "Please go easy in ."
"Of course, master. Don't worry, I promise you it will not hurt."
Ten seconds later, Bloed was also knocked unconscious.
