After thirty minutes went by, Grey stood up from his meditative position.

"I'm ready," He said to the head of the Gayle.

The head of the Gayle family nodded before calling the next challenger. This person was a young man, dressed in the uniform of members of the Pyro Faction.

Their battle soon started, with both individuals being locked in a stalemate. Although this person wasn't as powerful as Phoebe, he wasn't weak either.

Just like Phoebe, he was also a Dual Elementalist, having the fire and earth element. His high defense coupled with the high firepower made him a difficult opponent.

Grey was certain that he would be able to go toe to toe with Mid stages Overlord Plane Elementalists who have a purple elemental grade for their elements. The strength of each Elementalist is greatly attributed to how high their elemental grades were.

For instance, the only reason Grey could fight against these people was that he had multiple high elemental grades. Some of his opponents had the blue or violet grade, but he had three elements that were in the blue grade, and one was in the violet grade while another was in the cyan grade which he was certain was more powerful than the violet grade.

Boom! Bang! Bam!

They exchanged moves rapidly, with Grey managing to slowly gain the upper hand when he introduced his inscriptions as well as his space element. With these two in his arsenal, it was difficult for people who were just barely stronger than he is to defeat him.

After almost twenty minutes of fighting, he managed to defeat the young man. The crowd didn't find this unexpected since they had already predicted it from the start. Other than two young men in this group who were slightly stronger than Phoebe and a young lady that was on her level, there was no one else who would be able to threaten Grey.

Even with those three, it would be difficult for them to defeat him since once he introduces his inscriptions it would seem like they were fighting against two individuals at the same time. Given the wits and brains Grey had shown so far, he's good at capitalizing on mistakes.

Grey started the next battle immediately since he didn't use much of his elemental essence during the previous battle. His opponent was weaker than the young man he just fought, so he was able to quickly get the win.

One hour thirty minutes later, only three people were left in the group of the Second stage Overlord Plane Elementalists, and they were the three the crowd singled out.

"Will you continue?" The head of the Gayle family asked.

Grey nodded, not wanting to waste any more time. He could tell these three were just as powerful as Phoebe, if not stronger. She was the only one who had placed him in a difficult situation, and he wanted to see if someone could force him to go the extra mile.

"Alright," The head of the Gayle family nodded before turning his gaze to the group of three.

He couldn't believe that of over five hundred people who came for the battle, only eighteen were left. Fifteen were in the Third stage of the Overlord Plane while the remaining three were in the Second stage. If things went as expected, then Grey would certainly defeat these three.

He didn't know what was more embarrassing, calling forth multiple people from their city to be defeated, or the fact that they were being defeated by a single person who was even on a lower Plane.

The young lady amongst the three was the one who stepped forward when she noticed none of the two young men were showing any signs of making a move. They both had smug and confident expressions, and she couldn't help but wonder where it came from.

It was important for a fighter to be confident when they're going into battle, but if who they're fighting is someone who has defeated someone stronger than they are, confidence alone won't be enough.

"Hello, I'll be your opponent this time, please go easy on me," The young lady bowed as she got on the platform.

"Likewise," Grey bowed as well.

"Begin!" The head of the Gayle family called out.

Grey and the young lady attacked simultaneously, each not wanting to give the other the time to prepare.

Boom!

Both attacks crashed into each other, causing an explosion.

The young lady was a Lightning Elementalist, so after his attack was blocked by Grey's attack, she coated her body with the lightning element before rushing towards him.

Grey didn't stand by idle, he also used his lightning element to dash towards the position the young lady was standing.

Swoosh! Buzz! Bang! Boom!

They quickly started exchanging moves with red and silver lightning streaks running through the entire platform. Some people with lower stages found it difficult to keep up with their speed.

Grey didn't give the young lady any chances, attacking whenever the opportunity arose. The young lady also attacked as well, blasting Grey with her most powerful attacks.

The battle didn't last long as after five minutes, Grey and the young lady stopped moving, red streaks of lightning still dancing around Grey's body like a snake. Surprisingly, the red streaks weren't dancing around his body alone, even the young lady was tied by red lightning in the shape of a snake.

"I lost," She said softly.

Grey retracted the lightning that was holding the young lady. She glanced at Grey before walking down from the platform. Even after going all out, she couldn't even force Grey to use his space element, although he used it, it was only two or three times.

This battle ended with a resounding victory for Grey, and it was also one of his quickest against those in the Second stage of the Overlord Plane. This didn't mean that the young lady was weaker, it was just her style of fighting.

Grey was able to capitalize on a single mistake, hereby quickly defeating her.

"Will you continue?" The head of the Gayle family asked.

Grey stared at his two opponents left in the group of Second stage Overlord Plane Elementalists.

"Yes," He nodded.
