As Aguma began charging up his Great Ring of Destruction, his expression towards Kit's words didn't change, calling his bluff.

"Unfazed, huh? Let's change that up!"

He raised his Resonance, glowing light blue alongside his Beyblade, and what seemed like an average Knight Flyer resulted in Valt getting up as it started spinning and flipping.

"That's like the move he did against me!"

Kit nodded, swinging his hand down.

"Let's go, Wind Knight, Knight Flyer! Calvary Drop!"

Wind Knight accelerated and dived down so fast Aguma could barely react as it was a second from approaching into Scythe Kronos.

"Now, Great Ring of Destruction!"

Wind Knight slammed into the Uranus Legendary Blade, fighting back against the rising purple burst of energy, actually stunning most of the bladers present as his attack began nullifying the dark purple light, as the strong force never rose up.

"Is that all you got," Kit taunted. "This fight is ours!"

Aguma lifted the weight of his opponent's attack on his partner.

"Scythe Kronos, give it all you have! We will not disrespect Beylin Fist's legacy!"

His Beyblade erupted with more power than usual, slowly covering Wind Knight in attempts to push it off.

"Wind Knight," summoning the silver-yellow-blue Avatar, unleashing their twin blades and six wings.

"Scythe Kronos," summoning the Shinigami, Death itself, bringing out their scythe.

Both of them punched the air in front of each other. "Go!"

Their Avatar's swallowed the air field and purple colosseum into their weapons, striking each other at the same time, creating a blue-purple storm that enveloped them all, forcing Kit to slowly fight to keep standing, while Aguma ripped the loudest passionate cry he could.

A huge explosion covered the arena.

When the dust cleared, Kit was huffing, seeing his Beyblade barely spinning on top of Aguma's, which stood completely still.

Aguma's body was immobile, with no pupils in his eyes, standing proud and strong.

And Kit's Beyblade burst just after Kronos fell down.

"The score is tied two to two, Kit Lopez and Wind Knight are the winners!"

Dashan and Houi immediately rushed to Aguma's aid, who had to snap out of it, while Kit shook off the shock of what just happened, accepting the fact that he won with more concern for his opponent.

"Is he okay," joining them, blowing off air.

Baihu tried something a bit unconventional: pinching him back to his senses.

"What - I lost, didn't I?"

"It was a close match. You've made the name of Beylin proud."

"Let's get you something to drink," Houi said, granting Aguma some reprieve.

"Make it good enough," turning back to Kit. "Not bad, kid. We'll settle this in the rematch."

"You're on, big guy," picking up his Beyblade. "That was close," going back to the bench and laying down to rest. "I barely pulled it off," earning hugs from Cuza and Sasha.

Free nodded while Sisco patted him on the back.

"You knew this would happen?"

"No," leering at Kris, "but I thought it could," to which she approved.

"One more battle, hohoho," Raul laughed. "Cuza, think you could take it?"

"We got this," flipping above his teammates with Carl repeating we got this.

   Ghasem watched Aguma be brought back to their seats, almost reading their

What would Arthur do, thinking it over, especially after he came to him regarding the Red Eye and Lain incidents.

"Right," picking Aguma up and striking a point in his toe. The giant beast's eyes quick regained light.

"Who did that?"

Ghasem kicked in front of him.

"A strike to make another fighter focus on the fight. Stand strong. I'll finish what you all started."

Cuza back flipped onto the stadium, landing with his Beyblade equipment ready.

"Alright karate boy, bring it on," going from jovial to serious in seconds.

Ghasem gave his team a final nod and headed towards the center. The stats for their Balance type Alter Chronos and Stamina type Maximum Garuda were shown on the monitors as both of them got ready.

"We never got to fight during the World League. Time to see who'll win that round."

"Bring it."

"Three, two, one," everyone shouted with the announcers.

"Let it Rip!"

Both launched Chronos and Garuda into the stadium, with Cuza's Backflip Boost and Ghasem's kick thrust elevating their speed. Both of them circled around the now standard stadium, eventually clashing in the middle, though the avian Beyblade was slowly pushed back.

"Is Cuza in Attack or Stamina mode?"

"Let's put on a show," knocking Garuda back. Garuda flew down, striking at the shields the time gods formed as it stayed in the middle.

Kit was surprised. "He put it in Stamina?"

Free blinking. "He probably jumped higher to give himself more power."

"Time won't be on your side! Go Chronos!"

The next time Garuda went for the attack, Chronos's stability sent it flying towards the edge of the stadium, when Ghasem punched forward. His beyblade smacked against the walls, flying straight at Chronos.

"Garuda, Meteor Dive!"

The bey smashed into the other. Cuza demanded they endure, able to push it towards the other side, only for Ghasem's straight punch command another Meteor Dive, flying back and slashing Chronos airborne.

"Fine, you wanna end this? Let's go then," flipping up. "Spinning Moon-"

"Garuda!" Ghasem uppercutted the sky as Garuda struck the wall, rising in the air.

"Meteor Soar!"

Ghasem's beyblade clashed with Cuza's in midair before it could spin and gain the aura for the ultimate special move. Both tops grinded against each other.

"Wow, wow, wow! Wich one will get knocked away from the stadium?"

Cuza noticed he was too far on the outs as Ghasem's Beyblade started to manifest it's upper force meant to dive down.

"Push back Chronos!"

As they fell down, the silver Beyblaed shifted upwards, against the Energy Layer as they inched closer to the stadium. Both of them crashed down towards the stadium, but Chronos landed on the stadium's walls while Garuda's wings fell to the stadium. Cuza and Ghasem watched their beys start to lose their perfect spin.

"You should name your Beyblade Icarus because you flew too close to the sun. Chronos, stay there with your Slide-On-Shoot!"

"Hey Keny," Daichi asked. "Can't the bird guy just rise back up to the walls?"

"Well Chronos' attack power gives it enough spped. Garuda might not be able to muster the speed unless Cuza's Beyblade attacks."

Wakiya made a similar assessment. "Ghasem's doomed unless he finds a way to gain more speed through the stadium."

"But won't Cuza just go for the attack?"

Shu shook his head. "He could've gotten a point off me in the past had he just stood still. He's being cautious, but he's fighting with his head on straight."

"Keep it up Cuza, you're going to win this!"

Cuza handstand, being patient and staying calm, but Ghasem's Garuda started moving out of the center, finding its center of gravity lifted despite its weakening spin.

Dad, you've always wanted me to do my best. "This isn't over Garuda!"

The yellow Beyblade zoomed back and forth, picking up momentum, and crashed into the wall. Cuza was worried that it was trying to knock it off, but the crowd gasped as it landed right next to Alter Chronos.

"Gha-Gha-Gha-Ghasem managed to get his Beyblade up to the edge of the Beystadium!"

Cuza didn't expect to see both Beyblades in front of him, as Garuda charged at his.

Dashan nodded. "Keep going, my friend."

"Fight back, Chronos!"

The Garuda Beyblade found more momentum, edging them closer to the end, risking either falling out of the stadium or back inside.

"Push it out," Baihu yelled.

"Keep going," Houi cheered.

"Don't give up, Cuza!"

"What are you doing Cuza," Rantaro yelled. "Fight back!"

Cilo sucked his tomato juice, hoping his friend would make it through. "Ghasem's too aggressive in sucking out his plasma. He'll have to run before he can plant his stake inside."

Naoki's glasses shined. "His Tightrope Dive is being sealed. He can't build up the speed and power he needs for it."

"And since he's not in Attack Mode," Boa figured, "he can't use Slide-On-Shoot, either!"

Cuza's brain developed an idea. "Then it's time for a Escape Act! Chronos, run!"

His Beyblade let Ghasem's hit his back into the stadium.

"Wait, is Cuza running away from the fight?"

Tsubasa got it, spotting Cua staring at the other edge of the stadium. "No, that's not it. That move he was going to use earlier, he's going to try it again!"

Ghasem didn't recognize this, instinctively going after his opponent as their next slam only accelerated after the God of Time as it passed the center, flipping airborne from the outer rim to the wall, spinning like a trapeze artist in the air.

"You won't escape now," spinning himself with his Beyblade while Ghasem chased and flew up with the upper force, gliding off the walls and rising up after him.

"Too late," slamming their fists forward. "Moonsault Dive!"

"Reach further beyond, Garuda!"

Garuda rose parallel to Moonsault Dive as it began to fall, slipping right past it. It gained momentum and rotation from the air, gathering the power into its tip, heading straight down for the somersaulting Beyblade.

"True Meteor Strike!"

He growled, slamming his heel down.

"Chronos!"

Cuza's Avatar manifested out loud. Both of its limbs launched two spells in its barrier while the Garuda's Avatar emerged. The avian beast dived down, aiming its talons into Chronos' spherical defense as it started to crack.

Chronos thrusted hard for one protective seal but as Ghasem yelled, glowing aura, the power Cuza gave to his Beyblade could barely last as the yellow Beyblade crushed the opposing top in between the stadium floor and its strike.

Cuza's Beyblade burst, followed by Ghasem's right after.

"With a Burst Finish, Ghasem wins. Team Martial Artists wins round four of Block A!"

Dashann, Baihu, and Houi smiled, while Aguma, properly conscious, gave Ghasem a thumbs up. He broke his stoic nature to respond back with a kick and grin, wiping off his sweat and picking up his Beyblade partner.

"Thank you, my friend."

Cuza felt the opposite, clutching his partner. "We were so close!"

"So close, so close!" Carl's repeat held salt in the wound as he walked back to his team's stand.

"Sorry guys."

Free approached him, causing Cuza to gulp.

"You want to win next time, right?"

"Y-yeah."

"Then you will. Or try to."

Sasha snickered. "Did Kris tell you to say that?"

Kris laughed. "Not this time."

"We've still got the next round! Every team has one win and one loss so far."

"That is right! Tomorrow, come back for the final rounds of Block A. Come back next time to find out more!"

The Bladebreakers, BC Sol Superstars, Martial Artists, and Rising Victories tried to unwind, all taking the time to relax for the next day.
