The referee saw the two sides of this match exchanging barbs and then said. "You will have 5 minutes of combat in this contest. The group with the most people standing at the end of that interval will be the winner."
"Are you ready?" He saw both sides nod in agreement and then turned the hourglass of that combat platform. "Then begin!"
The moment the start of the fight was authorized, the four young men from the opposing group to Lothur's began running toward him, all preparing to attack with everything they could in this initial moment.
Viktoria would probably take care of the strongest of them in a few moments and be able to hold them off and eventually defeat them. So their only chance of being able to kill Lothur might be now, while they all still had 'freedom' of action.
With that, Lothur saw the statuses of the four individuals attacking him, two of whom he could not see the attributes of and two that he could.
[Name: ***]
[Cultivation: level 9]
[STR: 38.5] [CON: 39.9] [DEX: 39.1] [AGI: 38.8]
...
[Name: ***]
[Cultivation: level 8]
[STR: 29.9] [CON: 31] [DEX: 30.1] [AGI: 30]
Noting the characteristics of two of the four individuals attacking him, Lothur was confident in defending himself against the weaker ones. But as for the Spiritual Warriors, since he was not even aware of the attributes of these people, he had no idea how he would fare against them.
He then looked at his sister-in-law to check her current situation, with the impression that she was stronger than the level 8 opponent.
[Name: Annaliese Frost]
[Cultivation: level 8]
[STR: 33.8] [CON: 41.9] [DEX: 36.5] [AGI: 34.8]
',
'Anna will defeat her opponent with ease...' He pondered as the four opponent attacks came towards him.
Two of those attacks were of the spiritual type, formed by the energy of those opponents, something that Spiritual Warriors could do.
One of them was a blade attack flying through the surroundings in a parabolic trajectory, heading toward Lothur's neck.
The other was like roots growing through the ground like snakes moving towards Lothur's ankles and wrists.
As for the other two attacks, they were just ordinary blows since two of those young men were just Mortal Warriors.
Still, one was an arrow flying toward Lothur's heart, while the other was a young man attacking with his sword.
While they were attacking him, Lothur and his women were also running at such people, preparing to fight back.
That was particularly true for Viktoria, who would not let these people attack Lothur as if she were not there.
They wanted to start fighting him, but to do so, they would first have to overcome her!
So Viktoria took the lead from Lothur and Annaliese, quickly making her move against the group attacking her husband.
When she made her move, the spiritual energy in the surroundings condensed, forming a sizeable pinkish-white flower on her behind.
This flower had six petals and what looked like a few small pink spears, which were like the flower's stigma.
This flower rotated counterclockwise, and after a second, it fired those spears at the attacks coming in Lothur's direction, especially those of the two strongest young men.
Viktoria knew what her husband was capable of, so she would not waste her time trying to protect him from every possible blow. No, that would hinder her from getting the best result against the enemy group and be unnecessary.
So she focused her initial action against the two strongest opponents and the arrow flying against Lothur. As for the young man attacking with his sword, she allowed her husband to handle this alone.
At the same time, Annaliese prepared to start facing the level 8 young man who had launched an arrow as he was the weakest one, whom she was confident of beating.
Viktoria's strategy for this fight was to let Lothur 'dance' with the level 9 individual while she and Annaliese dealt with their opponents.
Viktoria was confident she could beat the level 10 and 11 opponents fighting her simultaneously. But, on the other hand, Annaliese could deal with the level 8 individual. So their plan was for one of the two to handle their responsibility and help Lothur, who had the slightest chance of eliminating his opponent alone.
'Follow current novels ON N (ovelB in.)',
Thus, Annaliese did not try to defend her brother-in-law, fully trusting her older sister's plan and also Lothur's characteristics.
As for this young man, he circled his defensive technique while swinging his ax, ready to attack the individual armed with a sword, coming towards him.
He planned to deal with this person as he had already done with Phil, this time without risking too much because he had Viktoria and Annaliese to help him later.
Since the purpose of this match was to have as many 'survivors' as possible at the end of the 5 minutes, he was not afraid of being negatively evaluated by a jury committee.
As he watched his wife's blows destroy the malicious attacks coming his way, Lothur prepared himself to deal with that level 9 young man.
"It won't be easy to face me, worm!" That person said when he got close enough to attack Lothur.
"Tsk!"
"You talk too much!" Lothur swung his ax toward the blade coming against him.
At the same time, the two strongest young men of the Sitz family group had ugly expressions on their faces, frustrated that Viktoria had stopped their initial attempt.
But with this woman starting to fight, they had no time to mourn and soon focused on Lothur's wife.
They wanted to eliminate this young man, but if they focused on Lothur, they would risk becoming vulnerable to a person who was stronger than they were...
As none of them wanted to risk attracting this woman's wrath, fighting her with everything they had was the best they could do for their own good!
As for the last of them, he soon attacked a few more times in Lothur's direction with his arrow, but as soon as Annaliese got close to him, he dropped his bow and arrow to fight her.
"Your opponent is me!" She said, using a large spear bigger than herself to attack her opponent.
Thus, the fight on each side began, with Viktoria showing off her enviable skills to the audience in the coliseum, fighting two Spiritual Warriors simultaneously.
She was powerful, and when she activated her technique, everyone in the surrounding area saw that she was suppressing her opponents, making them tremble with every blow she delivered.
At the same time, she looked wilder than ever, almost as if she was learning to behave like this with her husband, leaving aside the noble and loyal way of fighting she had before.
Because of this, from the very beginning of this match, her opponents felt the difficulty of facing someone at level 12, while the audience almost forgot about Annaliese and Lothur's battles.
But that would not be the case for the entire battle!
