THIS IS WAR

"Both Fighters ready? Let's Go!"

"I'm going to finish this fight quick!" "Fire" said.

FLAME SWORD!!!!!

A blade made of fire extended from his hand and slashed off his opponent's arm.

"Yes! I got him!" "Fire" said.

Veros however, continued to run towards him. He pulled his sword from his sheath and threw it in the air towards his missing arm, as he did so his arm regrew in time for him to catch it and slash at "Fire".

"Whoa! He just regenerated his arm! What an incredible ability!" "Wolf" exclaimed.

"It's nothing so impressive, he just has solid fundamentals." "Wind" said.

"Fire" continued to land attacks on Veros, and all the damage caused by his attacks continued to heal instantly. However, Veros' attacks didn't have the power to damage "Fire" either leading to a stalemate.

"Neither of them are able to deliver a finishing blow. This match might drag on for a while." "Wind" said.

"But how can "Fire" win? His opponent seems to be immortal. It feels like he will inevitably lose." "Wolf" said.

"Like I said it's nothing as special as that in fact his healing powers have nothing to do with his special ability." "Wind" said.

"What do you mean?" "Wolf" asked.

"Because of your skill levels, l often forget that you and your brother are novices when it comes to using aura. Other than special abilities which differ from person to person, there are five basic aura techniques that all aura users can utilize. You two are probably most familiar with the first 3."

"Wind" said.

"The first is Kuijia (armor): as the name implies it covers the user in an invisible armor made out of aura that is invincible against anything except for an aura attack." "Wind" continued. "The second is Tigao (enhance): an ability that enhances the user's physical abilities."

"The third is Souxun (search): an ability that allows you to sense the aura of others. Experts in this ability can even extrapolate details on their opponents through their aura." The ability Veros is using is called Yuhe 癒合(heal): it's an ability that allows users to heal their wounds. Veros is such an expert in the ability that he can instantly regenerate even severed limbs."

"While Yuhe can heal any injury it can't bring you back from the dead. Therefore, a strike to a vital area like the head or heart is still fatal." "Wind" said.

"But "Fire" has struck his vitals multiple times and he stil heals himself how can you explain that?" "Wolf" asked.

"That's where his actual ablity comes into effect. My suspicion is that his ability allows him to move his internal organs freely." "War" said.

"I came to the same conclusion." "Wind" said. "I came to that conclusion using my Souxun, he figured it only using his sense for combat, impressive." "Wind" thought to himself.

"So, how can he counter his abilities?" "Wolf" asked.

"The simplest way is to locate where he's moved his vital organs to and target him there. That's what high combat skill fighters like "War" or "Wind" would do." "Earth" said.

"However, the problem is that "Fire" is an idiot who'll never figure it out." "War" said.

"That being said he also has a way to counter it that would be more difficult for us to pull off." "Wind" said.

"Man, I just can't figure out how your ability works!" "Fire" shouted in frustration, "So l won't waste my time, and I'll just completely burn you to a crisp!" 

FIREBALL CANNONI!!

A huge fireball left "fire's" hands and hit Veros with it. Once it hit it caused an explosion that completely Incinerated him, leaving nothing but a pile of ashes.

"Ha! You can't regenerate il I completely annihilate you!" "Fire" said.

"Thats exactly what expected to happen." "Wind" said.

"With "Fire's" win the score is now 3-2, but the 7 Elements have won all the matches they've actually fought. Let's keep it going for the next match."

"Hey great match buddy, and a brilliant strategy." "War" said.

"Ha, it's nothing." "Fire" said looking proud of himself.

"You managed to figure out how to handle "Fire" relatively easy." "Wind" said.

"Eh, he's a pretty simple guy to figure out. I know I don't need to say it but good luck out there have fun." "War" said.

"Of course." "Wind" said.

"War" stuck his fist out and "Wind" bumped fists and started his walk to the arena.

"Now! Introducing out of the eastern corner, he stands 6 feet 1 inch tall, weighing in at 201 Ibs, he has a record of 1012 wins and zero losses, It's the strongest member of the 7 Elements it's... "Wind"!!!!"

"Now for his opponent out of the western corner, he stands 6 feet 3 inches tall, weighing in at 254 Ibs, he's making his War Festival debut, it's..."

"That comment about "Wind" being the strongest seemed to be a little personal to me." "War" said.

"Fire" proceeded to laugh at his expense.

"Oh it's probably harmless." "Earth" said.
