While the crowd more than likely enjoyed the spectacle, Xerx was happy to see the honest effort from his opponent and hopefully the two could meet in the future it'd be interesting to see how far he'd have come along, but all that said; all that mattered was the moment. Not wanting to disappoint in his own end, Xerx would engage in the high speed battle. With Michah landing behind Xerx, Xerx would attempt to avoid the strikes with his own dodge slash, he'd attempt to twirl like a miniature tornado around the strikes before returning one himself. However, Xerx wouldn't care about landing the attack and instead would attempt to use the whole set of movements to set up a feint, though in saying this the counter slash would be intended to hit just if it missed it wouldn't be a big deal; Xerx would perform a backflip into the air via highjump, but amidst it he'd "Kick off" Of the air performing fire dash to charge in like a hawk in attempt to land a quicker attack than the one previous and at a more awkward angle to defend from. However, given Micah's own comparable speed things we're easier said than done and as such Xerx could potentially fail his combo attempt and leave himself vulnerable. 

Dodge slash speed: 122

Reg hit: 23

*He lost sight of Xerx as he spun away, cursing. By the time he saw him again, clued in by the light of the fire dash, it was too late. Exhausted as he was, there was nothing he could do against the blows, unable to even block; he skidded along the ground on his back, grunting as he came to a stop near the edge of the arena. Groaning, he managed to sit up, but threw his struggle bat out of the arena. It was about to end anyway, and he simply couldn't go on after that combo. He staggered to his feet and gave Xerx a respectful nod before turning and heading back to his seat.*

Michah was a worthy opponent to say the least and with a silent how, Xerx's smile faded, not out if disappointment nor to patronize the mid, instead Xerx wanted to show appropriate respect for his opponent. To keep from ruining the mood Xerx too proceeded to his seat so he could spectate the next match.

Completely understandable, good match as well.

"Well, it looks like Xerx has won! An amazing performance from both combatants! But don't leave just yet Micah, you are entered in for a match to receive third place! Up next we have Mizi versus Suke!"

*Mizis gold eyes widened after hearing Sukes name, she still had violence felt from their first encounter and wasted no time going into the arena*
