"Shit" cursed Kisara as she landed, "Go down already!"

"Ah, wait!' the announcer proclaimed as a small crack appeared on the mask, momentarily loosening the mask to reveal the Elder's smiling face with a tiny scratch mark on his cheek.

The Elder quickly put it back on before declaring that he had a transmission from Garyu Pik regarding important hero duties and he had to forfeit. He even had a Super Sentai transmission watch to go along with his apparel.

"My youthful 20-year-old self must end the test of skills here. I can not declare any longer. Farewell!" waved Garyu X to the crowd receiving a rain of applause from the crowd.

"Well we don't know one thing about him but there is a loud cheer for him, From the stand!" the announcer said.

"But if the cut off age for participation is before 20... then weren't you ineligible from the start?" said Matsui.

The whole audience became silent the moment they heard what Matsui said.

"Oh! Yeah right" said Takeda.

"Hahahaha..... damn and I thought no one would point out," Kenichi said as he laughed.

"Ah!" Kisara and Kaname exclaimed while the one in the booth sweatdrop at that.

'I heard that it was twenty and down' thought Elder when he heard Matsui's words

"Insurance for moments like this? You are as attentive as always to these trivial things, Laughing Fist Diego" said Fortuna as Diego simply whistled.

"Actually... I am 19!!" shouted Garyu X

"IT'S WAY TOO LATE FOR THAT!" shouted the 5 fighters of The Shinpaku Alliance.

Garyu X waved his hand once and with a burst of speed, Garyu X jumped in the air before kicking off in the midair, changing directions, landed on the bleachers before climbing out of the colosseum itself in a flash. While he did that Garyu X threw his mask towards Laughing Fist Diego.

Laughing Fist Diego caught the mask and when he turned it, he read the words written behind it "I will remember your trickery! Gramps"

'He's the type to hold a grudge' thought Laughing Fist Diego with a smile on his face.

"Well, it looks like Garyu X had left the arena! Victory goes to the Shinpaku Alliance! They will be in the finals on the earth side!" declared a dazed announcer.

The fighters of The Shinpaku had 'won' but they certainly didn't felt like winners.

"Come-on cheers up," said Miu.

"Easy for you to say" growled Kisara, "Even with all five of us and him using only 0.005% of his power we barely scratched him."

"Well if it makes you feel any better than when I sparred against him I wasn't able to move my body for the next three days while you all are walking on your own" Kenichi said.

"Now that makes me feel better," Tsuji said.

"Me too," Yuma said.

"I think it makes all of us feel better," said Kaname.

Though what they didn't know that Kenichi had forced Elder to use 50% of his strength that is 10000 times more than the battle power he used against them.

Miu, Tenka, and Saeko were looking at Kenichi as they knew the truth but Kenichi winked at them signaling them not to talk about that matter.

"But I still want a rematch" added Tsuji

"I learned a lot in that fight" laughed Yuma

"Falala, indeed" sang Seigfried, "I wish to pursue him as my master!"

"What!?" shouted all of them.

"I wish to learn Bi-Vocal and Obstructive Lung Voice from him!" sand Seigfried, "Such skill would drastically improve my musical skills to new heights!"

"Oh" was the sigh of relief throughout them all.

"So..... thoughts about that?' asked SHo

"The Grandmaster of Ryozanpaku is very...eccentric" stated Ryuto pushing his glasses up.

"That's, to say the least," snorted Rachel

"With him as the head, it's no wonder why Ryozanpaku stands as one of the pinnacles of Martial Arts" analyzed Brois calmly, "I have always wondered how could they stand in the way of YAMI with such little funds when compared to us, but I see now why our masters are wary of them"

"As for the other competitors they are no match for us" stated Tirawit with cold logic.

"Indeed, they may be passable for this sort of competition but against us, they will die," Chikage said as she took a bite from her chocolate ice cream while making a cute face making it hard to take her seriously.

"That may be true" commented Ethan, who had been silent for a while, "But if our information is correct, none of the fighters that went up just now have any real masters or formal training. All of them are self-study martial artists, and to be able to come this far is something to be noted."

Chikage frowned at Ethan defending them, but conceded to his point and focused on her ice cream. To be able to reach this far in the world of martial arts by themselves was certainly something to note.

"The Shinpaku Alliance huh" murmured SHo as he looked over to their booth. According to their source, The Shinpaku alliance was started by Kenichi Shirahama and his Friend who is the president of the said alliance but the president was someone who had no martial arts skills whatsoever. However, it was noted that despite not having any fighting prowess, his analysis on the people was on a whole another level, perhaps on par with Tirawit, if not higher.

"Well that's something we can think about later, right now it's my turn to shine!" proclaimed Rachel. reminding them that her match was next.

Seconds later, the announcement was made that the Gemini team would be fighting the Capoeria team.

___________________________________________________________________________________

The arena was soon ready with the theme being Mexican ruins. Once again, Diego's blatant favoritism could be seen here, but it was something they had long grown accustomed to. What surprised them was that Diego declared a battle royal despite the Gemini Team being outnumbered. The Capoeria team wasn't a two members team like before it had five members that are 3 more members from the Gemini team in it.

"Hmph, it doesn't matter. We will monopolize all the attention with this!"
