As we made it to the doors Esdeath veered left and told me to go into the arena. There were so many people watching my every move, and I was going to show off to all of them. As I make my way to the middle everyone stops cheering and just stares.

"What?" I ask the crowd

"Today we have a bit of a youngster but believe me, he can take his opponent with ease!" The announcer shouts to the crowd "This young male is the same one to slaughter and entire mental facility, please bring a warm welcome to......Y/N!!!" The man said, adding emphasis to my name

"Come ooooon, lets go!" I shout to Esdeath, wanting to fight already

As soon as I say that I see an ice lady appear in front of me, she didn't really have any shape but was identifiable as human and female. Almost immediately I see her run at me, obviously I doge and cut her in half. At least I wanted to but when my blade hit she only shattered into pieces then melted back into the ground.

"What was that!?, I thought this was going to be a challenge!" I shout, actually a bit ticked

"That was only a 10% clone, lets raise it to 50%!" I hear the announcer say, looking at Esdeath in between announcements

Again, I see the same woman appear only she is quite a bit taller than her now dead counterpart. This time I waste none and run at her, blades a blazin'. All over my body I feel my blood harden to form armor and blades. As we meet in the middle I start to attack, just as she does. I go in for a jab but am blocked my her forearms, she hits my chest, punching through it. I look down and smile back at her.

"Nice try lady!" J shout before hard healing and severing her arm off, puking out what remains in my chest. She reels back, her arm cracking and bits start to break off. I go at her again and attempt a slash, only to be met with her own blade stoping mine mere centimeters from her face. I push down but she eventually cuts me in half, obviously my flesh binds back together as soon as the sharpness passes through. If she had emotions I'm sure she'd be scared right now. I go in for the kill and stab right between her flat eyes. As I yank out my blade she melts as well.

"Pretty good but I wanna fight some more" I yell at the announcer's box

"He wants more folks!" The man yells, causing the crowd to cheer with delight "Now our little devil will fight....100% power!, not identical to the General but as close as one can get!" The black haired male screams to the arena

Just as he finishes I see a ice woman appear once more, only now she dwarfs me by a long shot. She has about 2 meters on me and she is first to attack this time, spikes forming from below her as she dashed toward me.

"Ooooooh, I like this one, she's fast!" I say to the icy lady currently trying to hit me

Immediately after I say that I feel air rush around me and i hit a wall. When I hit the wall I can fell my ribs shatter and my organs explode, it would hurt a lot but luckily my blood healed all the wounds instantaneously. The crowd goes silent and the icy woman walks toward me, I get up and use the wall as a launch pad to go at her at top speed. While I'm going through the air I feel my skin start to rip around my face. I go for an attack but I hit her forearms, sending the blue figure backwards into the opposite wall. When the dust clears I see a blur of blue coming at me so I narrowly doge and hit the back of her head. I go for her stomach but she moves out of the way and goes for my head, I doge left and send a roundhouse towards her head only to be stopped by a forearm. After a couple of minutes of dogging and blocking I finally land another hit on her. When I uppercut her in the stomach her entire midsection shatters and all that is left are her limbs and head, of course they melt into the ground and disappear from sight.

Third Person  POV

After the boy hits the east wall the crowd grows silent in waiting. After a few seconds they hear a loud bang and see the icy figure skid backward into the west wall as dust accumulates. After a few seconds the blue woman darts from the wall and that was the last thing the crowd could see clearly. After the woman makes it to the Y/N all the crowd could see was a massive blur and hear the occasional thump or smack. After exactly 26 minutes and 47 seconds they hear a shattering of glass and see the woman's abdomen blow apart only leaving half her legs, arms and a head falls from the sky, presumably hit up there just moments earlier. And, alas, the fight is over and the woman's remains melt into the dusty earth below.

Esdeath POV

He actually did it, he beat my best clone after only 36 minutes! I didn't know this was possible for anyone except me to accomplish. This male had defeated all my clones after just under an hour, I was genuinely impressed. But that awe was cut short when the male yelled to the crowd before collapsing, most likely due to exhaustion.

"I did it!, but.....I'm feeling a bit.....woo.......zyyyyy" he says before falling to the earth below

Most people would have passed out after the 50% power clone but he took on that one, the 10% AND the 100% one, it was almost on my level. I walk down the limp body and sling him over my shoulder, I noticed that he became quite a bit taller which was strange, ahh well I guess I'll ask Stylish to inspect this at a latter date.
