Victor proceeded to grab the hilt of his sword, unstrap it from his back and swing downward while the blade was still inside the sheath.
The sheathed swing collided with the storm of phantom blades mid-air and split them all in a cascading blast of energy.
A violet arc tore through the air like a divine crescent, cutting the entire skill in two and sending shockwaves across the platform.
Kleon's technique shattered with a deafening crack.
"W-what?" Kleon gasped.
The crowd let out a collective gasp as silence followed like a stunned aftershock.
Victor exhaled and then activated Wind Dash...
A burst of wind swept out from his position as he vanished.
The next instant, he was in front of Kleon with his hand thrusting forth.
CRACK!
A palm strike slammed into Kleon's chest like a thunderclap, causing compressed qi to explode outward. Kleon's body lifted off the ground, launched clear off the stage while spinning mid-air before crashing into the barrier wall.
