After Vision's shocking rampage, the superpower tournament continued as per Kyle's orders.

Following the first three group matches, it was abundantly clear to the remaining contestants that this tournament, despite being labeled a competition, was no game. No one knew what kind of enemy they might face next.

The participants who made it to the group matches were far from ordinary humans.

The God System displayed the spinning wheel on the screen, beginning the draw for the fourth round of matches.

"The blue team for the fourth round is— Team 5!"

A spotlight illuminated the three members of Team 5: Agent Venom, Ant-Man, and Deadpool.

"Finally... it's our turn?" Ant-Man (Scott Lang) took a deep breath, glancing nervously at the other teams who hadn't competed yet. The invisible pressure was palpable.

"Stay calm, stay calm. Just think about it— teams like Iron Man's lineup have already been eliminated. If we get knocked out too, it's no big deal." Deadpool shrugged in an attempt to comfort him.

"Is that supposed to be encouraging?" Ant-Man shot him an annoyed look.

Agent Venom remained silent, his pale, narrow eyes fixed on the screen as it began selecting their opposing red team.

"The red team for the fourth round is— Team 10!"

The announcement drew gasps from the contestants and the audience alike. All eyes turned to the towering figure of a three-to-four-meter-tall giant wreathed in green flames, wielding a massive battle axe. Beside the giant stood two figures clad in black bodysuits and demonic masks— members of the Carl Nation.

"This is bad." Agent Venom's pupils contracted as he clenched his dark fists. His voice was low and raspy. "We've drawn the worst possible team to face among the remaining competitors."

"Aren't those guys from Carl Nation? Shouldn't you know them?" Ant-Man asked cautiously, his gaze fixed on the giant burning with green fire. "Is that guy really that strong?"

Agent Venom replied gravely, "That's Hellfire, the gatekeeper of Carl Nation. He's the ultimate combat monster created by the family head. His strength isn't just exceptional— it surpasses Vision."

"That bad?" Ant-Man was visibly shaken. Even Deadpool, usually carefree, dropped his playful demeanor, standing tensely on guard.

This was going to be a brutal fight.

Before the Agent Venom team could strategize further, the match began. All six contestants disappeared from the arena, and the screen above shifted to reveal the new battleground: a picturesque fountain garden surrounded by a sprawling, vibrant flower field.

Random Battle Location: Fountain Park on Ego's Planet.

The time limit was ten minutes. Contestants were restricted to the garden area, and the team that defeated the most members of the opposing team within the time limit would be declared the winner.

Blue Team: Agent Venom, Ant-Man, Deadpool.

Red Team: Hellfire, Wrath (Carl), Pride (Carl).

The six contestants stood on opposite sides of the ornate fountain, locking eyes across the distance. Their menacing appearances clashed starkly with the dreamy beauty of the flower fields.

Hellfire was the most striking among them. The giant's massive body was wrapped in chains, emitting an eerie green flame. In its hand was a damaged yet imposing single-handed axe. Even standing still, it radiated immense pressure, the flowers beneath its feet scorched to ashes.

Even Hellfire's own teammates, Wrath and Pride, dared not stand too close to it. If provoked, Hellfire wouldn't hesitate to attack allies or enemies alike. The only thing it feared in this world was Kyle— nothing else could intimidate it.

"I'll handle Hellfire. You two deal with the others," Agent Venom said as he stepped forward. With a surge of power from the symbiote within him, his body expanded, dark muscles rippling with strength.

Agent Venom let out a savage roar, his razor-sharp teeth bared and his red tongue lashing. He had fully transformed into a monstrous humanoid of darkness.

Hellfire's hollow eyes flared with flames as it charged at Agent Venom with overwhelming force. Their fists collided— dark against green flames— and the sheer impact of their clash sent shockwaves through the air, hurling Ant-Man, Deadpool, Wrath, and Pride away.

Boom! Boom! Boom! freēwēbηovel.c૦m

When the four picked themselves up and looked back toward the center of the garden, they saw the once-lovely fountain now reduced to rubble. The two monsters were locked in ferocious combat, their close-quarters battle threatening to destroy the entire park.

"Monsters. They're both absolute monsters," Deadpool muttered, wide-eyed. "I'd probably get squashed into a pulp in one hit."

"Based on what Agent Venom said, he probably won't last the full ten minutes. It's up to us to take down the other two. If we can manage that, we might still win this match," Ant-Man said as he climbed to his feet, focusing on Wrath and Pride not far away.

"If you want to beat us, come and try!" Pride sneered, lifting his chin arrogantly with a cold chuckle.

"You think we're easy targets? I'm mad now." Wrath's forehead veins bulged as he charged directly at Ant-Man and Deadpool.

"Something's off about those two. They're radiating an ominous aura," Deadpool observed, watching Wrath rush toward them. Reaching behind him, he drew two katana blades made of Carbonadium.

"Let's find out," Ant-Man said, pulling a small object from his pocket. With a quick flick, he hurled it at Wrath.

Wrath squinted, and what came into view was a toy car barely the size of a thumb.

"Are you kidding me?"

Now truly enraged, Wrath prepared to swat it aside. But in an instant, the toy car began to expand rapidly, transforming into a massive transport truck that crashed down on top of him, burying his entire body into the flower field.

"That's freaking impressive." Deadpool, now gripping his swords with both hands, gave Ant-Man an impressed look. "Didn't think you knew magic."

"It's not magic— it's cutting-edge science: Pym Technology!" Ant-Man corrected with a smug grin as if he'd invented it himself. Turning his attention to Pride, who stood motionless, he offered a warning:

"Your team is already down one member. If you're smart, you'll surrender now."

"What are you babbling about, you lowly worm?" Pride chuckled, pointing beneath the transport truck. "You don't actually think Wrath's been taken out that easily, do you?"

"What?" Ant-Man and Deadpool blinked in confusion. Only then did they notice the truck trembling, inching upward.

Wrath emerged from beneath the massive vehicle. With both hands gripping the undercarriage, he lifted the several-ton transport above his head with sheer brute force.

"What in the world..." Ant-Man muttered, pointing at something behind Wrath. A faint, semi-transparent shadow of a monstrous being manifested at Wrath's back as he summoned his rage-fueled strength.

"This is one of the Seven Deadly Sins- Wrath's demon spirit," Pride explained with smug pride. "It's a gift from our master. It greatly enhances physical abilities and grants extraordinary powers."

"Of course, I have one too. Mine is the demon spirit of Pride."

As Pride spoke, a similarly malevolent shadowy figure materialized around him, radiating an air of arrogance and malice.

The demon spirits of the Seven Deadly Sins were artifacts Kyle had acquired during his time in the Galaxy. Upon his return to Earth, he found no use for them himself and instead bestowed them upon the most outstanding members of his family.
