The fighting was intense, and it was unbelievable how much power all of them had and how unique all of their abilities and capabilities were.

Crushing Staff Strike
Adam's friends used all sorts of different skills and techniques that even Adam had never seen before, and their battle was at a stalemate.
No matter how much they injured Adam and tried, they couldn't take him down, while Adam was also unable to take any of them down without using an ability or power that he wanted to conceal.
All the skills were powerful and complex, making it so that Adam had to stay calm and analyse all of them in order to be able to take them on and also be prepared for them the next time.
However, one attack caught him completely off guard.
Crushing Groin Kick
Chase's attacks were usually Monk or Staff Skills that were dignified, powerful and direct, however, what Chase suddenly used against him was completely unexpected by Adam.
While Adam was engaging in close combat with Wayde, who had learnt to form weaponry out of his newly enhanced and strengthened Fire Energy, Chase suddenly attacked from the side.
Adam was expecting a staff attack from the side, however, Chase launched a kick towards Adam's groin, while Cole had appeared behind Adam with great speed and held him, trying to stop him from moving.
At that point, they had already fought for nearly an hour and had all weakened greatly due to fatigue and using up most of their energy, so Adam wasn't expecting anything new from his opponents.
Adam was weakened and fatigued the most out of all of them due to the strain his body was experiencing after continuously using the Body Transformation Unique Skill for the first time.
They could see that, and after Wayde created an opening, wanted to take him down.
Their perceptiveness and combat prowess had massively improved and led them to believe that Adam was unable to use the Step Skip Skill while he was in contact with another person.
Since Cole was holding him, Adam would be unable to use that particular Unique Skill and he could not avoid their final attack, or so they hoped and believed.
Adam, in that moment, truly was unable to dodge or avoid that attack in any way, but he also couldn't allow his crown jewels to be crushed by such a powerful kick.
He had no choice but to use something that he didn't want to use against them in the battle since they were defenceless against it, as if it was any other attack he would have taken it head-on, but an attack to the groin was something that no man could handle.
Entering his Soul Form, they were all baffled by the sudden disappearance of Adam and Cole was shocked by it the most.
He was so shocked by it, that he was too slow to react to Chase's kick that struck him instead.
However, Chase had been able to change where he was kicking slightly and managed to avoid Cole's groin, striking his stomach and launching him sliding backwards.
Cole was able to disappear and fuse his existence with his surroundings, however, Adam's disappearance was different and it was as though his existence entirely disappeared.
It felt that way to them because they were ignorant of the existence of souls and Adam was planning on enlightening them on that, but also didn't want them to begin asking him questions about how he was able to enter a Soul Form.
Instead, he wanted to keep it brief and mention it to them before leaving, as if he answered all their questions, they would be there for hours and he would also reveal to them too much.
Appearing behind them, Adam slumped on the ground and they did the same after their final bid to attack him and take him down had failed and even backfired.
Their battle was an amazing one that lasted for around an hour and pushed them all to their limits, even for Adam, who didn't want to unleash his full power and rely on all his trump cards.
"This was a great battle, but let us call it a day. If we go any further, it might seriously injure one of us or cause us to push ourselves too far past our limits," he said as he lay on the ground.
His body was aching all over and the others were also completely drained and fatigued, but they weren't in nearly as much pain as Adam.
However, the exhilarating feeling that Adam felt while transforming and all the abilities it allowed him to wield was definitely worth the pain.
It also made him wonder what it would feel and be like to enter a deep transformation or even a complete transformation, but he knew that his body might suffer great backlash from it and he also didn't have a need to.
Once his body become more accustomed to the Body Transformation Unique Skill's power, he would attempt it and it would allow him to infiltrate the ranks of any creature once he had killed one of them.
So not only was it an ability that increased his combat power, but could also be used for scouting and espionage.
The others were all in a similar state to Adam, lying around on the ground, barely able to move after such an intense battle, but after a few seconds, Adam jumped up.
"You all might have a lot of questions and there are also a few things that I want to say before leaving, so we should all take an hour to recover in the energy chamber, then return here," stated Adam, who was still not completely tired out and made it clear to them at that moment that he would have come out on top if they were truly enemies.
Nodding their heads, they all followed after Adam and all could barely move as they staggered towards the Energy Chamber.
