The two tornadoes caused red lightning to flash across the arena, caused by the two forces colliding.
Shana and Pietro were both doing their best to overwhelm their opponent with their abilities.
Neither was holding back, and they put everything on the line to end the battle as soon as possible.
With a loud boom, a thunderous explosion erupted in the arena, followed by the two tornadoes dispersing outward.
Countless floating petals drifted down from the sky, temporarily preventing anyone from seeing anything in the arena.
While everyone was srized by the beautiful scenery in front of them, sothing stirred, and sparks flew as two weapons clashed against each other.
Pietro's sword and Shana's spear clashed several tis in rapid succession.
With Pietro's speed, the Saintess could only respond out of instinct.
His extrely fast, and unpredictable movents allowed the young man to land two out of five attacks on his opponent.
The only reason why Shana was still able to remain standing was due to the buffs of her Divine Ability, as well as the flower armor that was protecting her body.
Even so, she knew for certain that if the Squad Leader's attacks kept up, the loser of this match would be her.
Erica, Diana, and Mildred, who were watching this scene, couldn't help but look at their friend with worry.
Shana didn't excel at fighting. It was only thanks to Thirteen's training that she was no longer as helpless as she was in the past.
Even the Grand and Field Marshals, who were watching the battle, were very surprised and impressed by her performance.
For them, even if she lost, it would still be acceptable because she truly had fought to the best of her abilities.
Shana gritted her teeth as she tried to endure Pietro's unpredictable attacks, which she could barely follow with her eyes.
Truth be told, she had one more ultimate technique, which was called the Eternal Blood Requiem.
However, Thirteen warned her that this was a Last Resort for when her life was truly in danger.
The mont she used this ability, there was a high chance that she would shred anything within a hundred ters around her into pieces.

Since this was a re competition—not a battle of life and death, Shana didn't want to use it.
In the end, she sighed internally and conceded the match.
Pietro imdiately stopped attacking as soon as the Saintess voiced her surrender, which made him sigh in relief.
He really didn't dare to injure the Saintess, so he still held back with the attacks that managed to land on her body.
Shana was also aware of this, so she was actually thankful to Pietro. Even in the heat of battle, her opponent was not malicious enough to harm her intentionally.
"Winner, Pietro!" Thirteen declared with a smile on his face.
Although Shana had lost, he was very proud because she managed to last against the fastest Squad Captain under his command.
He was certain that the Saintess would continue her training so that she would not be as helpless again in the future.
Shana's fans accepted this outco, noticing that aside from looking pale, there were no visible injuries on the Saintess' body.
This ant that Pietro had reservations when attacking their idol. So, they decided to let this matter slide and no longer planned to beat the crap out of him after he left the safety of the Colosseum!
Pietro expected the audience to start booing him after the match ended.
But to his surprise, what he thought didn't happen, making him sigh in relief.
Although she was a bit disappointed, Shana walked out of the arena, accepting her loss in a graceful manner.
Roland and Joshua were also relieved because Shana no longer needed to fight harder battles in the future.
Also, the two of them, just like Shana's fans, no longer planned to beat the crap out of Pietro at a later ti for hurting their crush!
The next battle was between Thirteen's Squad Captains and the representatives of the Prestigious Families.
Alexis, Paul, and Piper all won their matches, leaving the mbers of the Prestigious Families shaken by the outco of the match.
Each of their representatives was the geniuses of their Families, and many resources were poured into making sure that they would perform well in the tournant.
They believed that their chosen ones wouldn't lose to so random nobodies. But to their surprise, Thirteen's Squad Captains wiped the floor with their representatives.
This made Lawrence and Tristan smile from ear to ear, proud to see the soldiers of their Central Governnt doing extrely well in the tournant.
Not only did such results increase their reputation, but it was also sure to prove helpful when they started their recruitnt after the tournant ended.
"Things are going according to Zion's plan," Tristan said with a smile.
"Indeed." Lawrence nodded. "Did he agree to let Shasha beco our muse and model in the comrcial that will be fild for the next recruitnt?" "He said that he will leave the decision-making to Shasha," Tristan replied. "He said he will support whatever decision that she makes."
Lawrence nodded in understanding. The Leventis Family was proving to be a very dependable ally of the Central Governnt in more ways than one.
Not only was Zion a very brilliant commander, but his siblings were also amazing.
Mikhail had gained many fans during this tournant, though it, of course, paled in comparison to the number of Shasha's fans.
Even so, that didn't change the fact that they were also hoping to recruit Mikhail in the Central Governnt.
Unfortunately, Mikhail refused because he said that he wasn't fit to beco a leader.
Because of this, they hoped that Shasha would agree to promote the Central Governnt's recruitnt.
They had also prepared a special unit just for her, which would only be composed of female Wanderers, similar to the Valkyrie Unit, which was an all-girl squadron.
For the two highest ranking officers of the Central Governnt, the upcoming recruitnt was a very important matter.
As long as they reached their quota, they would be able to train and ensure that the army they would send in the Cygni Continent would be able to hold the line and prevent another continent from falling into the hands of the Jinn Invasion.
