Leaun slammed his fist into the ground, pushing himself to his feet. Vermon grinned, spreading out his arms.
"What do you think you are doing? You just saw what I did. My sword can cut you before you even realize it. You have no way of defeating me!" Vermon grinned.
"You say that, but-" Leaun pointed at his own nose.
"I'm not the one with a runny nose." Leaun grinned as he grabbed the sword from the ground, producing a sword once again.
"Ichimanbonzakura gracetracer-" The sword began to glow once more.
"Cold...Yet colder-" Leaun moved his hand into the air, producing a white light from it.
"Bloom!" He swung his sword with all his might.
"Eternal blizzard, snow white!" He opened his hand, unleashing the glow all over the arena. The spectators hid their eyes using their hands. Vermon stepped back as he saw all of his petals frozen solid. Snow was falling from the sky, and a single crystal was levitating above Leaun hand.
"What is that?" Vermon looked confusedly at the tiny crystal.
"My next level," Leaun said, grabbing the crystal and slamming his rolled-up fist into the palm of his free hand.
"Snow white-" He said, slowly moving the hand away from the palm, leaving a trail of an ice sword.
"A new sword?" Vermon produced more petals, forming it into gracetracer again. Leaun took a deep breath and slowly opened his hand, revealing the hilt of his new complete ice sword. He grabbed it and swung it in front of himself, looking directly at Vermon. The blade shined for a second, and then the whole ice sword turned a bluish dark color.
"You think a new sword can defeat me?" Vermon grinned.
"Glacier!" He swung the sword with all his might, producing a quick flash of blue ice. Vermon barely protected himself with his petals.
"What is this speed?" Vermon looked in shock.
"Snow white-" He took one step forward and suddenly found himself in front of Vermon.
"Flash Freeze!" He swung his sword, cutting Vermon over the body, leaving behind frozen blood. Vermon stumbled forward, roaring as he grabbed his blade spinning around.
"BLOOM!" He hit Leaun in the back, sending the man flying.
"You damn, peasant!" He moved his hand into the air.
"ICHIMANBONZAKURA-" He roared as the petals shot out of his palm, spreading out over the sky. Leaun got up, preparing his sword.
"SNOW WHITE-" He roared as he swung his sword from an underbody slash.
"SPRING!" He moves his hand down as all of the petals shoot down, like raining sakura blossoms in spring.
"COLDER THAN ICE!" He swung his sword upward, creating a blizzard of blue ice. The blizzard spread out, colliding against the petals.
A shockwave shot out, creating such a gust of wind that the spectators had to be protected by the barrier once more.
"W-WOW!" Kotoha screamed as she felt the tremors through the ground.
"That was powerful!" Damien looked at it in awe.
"You think he is okay?" Sakana asked, looking worried.
"Hmm, someone is finally matching up to the charmer." Faust grinned.
"Don't look so pleased about it." Malmy poked Faust in the side.
"Yeah, I know, but man. I wish I could have fought that old man." Faust grinned as the bandages on his back moved a bit.
A rain of pink dust and glimmer surrounded the arena. Leaun was holding snow white in one hand. His hand started to turn blueish. Vermon stood at the other side of the stadium as he was producing petals at a slower rate, making them fly around him, making him shine slightly pink.
"What's with your arm, old man. Can't keep up with your own cold?" Vermon grinned.
"You are one to talk. It seems your production rate is going down, getting tired?" Leaun moved his arm, trying to keep it moving not to let it freeze.
"So you had an ace up your hole like that. A strong freezing power at the cost of your own skin." Vermon tilted his head, creating his sword once more.
"Well, every power has its edge, right? I can keep producing ice as long as it takes. I would rather die than give up!" Leaun pointed his sword at Vermon.
"I will give you credit where credit is due. You are one determined man. I'm sorry I have to kill you. I will bring out my strong game now." Vermon moved a hand forward, allowing all of the petals to collect around his palm.
"Ichimanbonzakura-" Vermon grinned as the petals began to glow powerfully.
"Going to produce another sword?" Leaun asked, preparing his blue ice sword.
"No, something more...elegant." Vermon swiped his hand over the air, producing a pure pink fan. He began to wave at his own face, smiling slightly.
"A fan. You removed a sword to produce a fan?" Leaun was keeping his distance, unsure of what power this new weapon had.
"Elegance." Vermon spun around, waving his fan around the air, making small light glimmers produced from the fan itself.
"Ichimanbonzakura elegance-" Leaun quickly moved up his sword.
