The ground shattered, and both of them vanished. The clash began instantly. Sel appeared first, right in front of Ivan. Ivan's pupils shrank, but he reacted too late. Sel's fist drove forward, space itself warping faintly around it as it connected with Ivan's guard.
BOOM!
The impact distorted the air, sending Ivan skidding backward, his feet carving trenches into the ground as his arms trembled from the force. At the same time, Bahamut crashed into Rexi. Their collision sounded like two boulders slamming into each other. Flames erupted, and wind exploded. Their fists met mid-air.
BOOOOM!
A shockwave blasted outward, forcing the remaining four to brace themselves. Rexi's flames surged, coiling around his arm as he twisted and launched a barrage of strikes, each one faster than the last. Bahamut didn't retreat; he met them, blow for blow. Each clash sent bursts of fire scattering. The other four finally moved.
"Split them!"
