    The battle between Mason and Leon continued, with each disciple and their beast exchanging powerful attacks. Mason and his Rock Golem, Rocky, continued to use their earth-element attacks, while Leon and his ze Lion, Ember, countered with fierce mes.


    As the battle between the two disciples continued, Leon''s ze Lion was struggling to keep up with the might of Mason''s Rock Golem, Rocky. Leon knew he had to try something different if he wanted to turn the tide of the battle in his favor.


    He quickly reached into his Spatial Ring and withdrew his weapon, the me w. With a fierce determination in his eyes, he pointed the weapon toward Rocky and shouted, "Let''s see if you can withstand this!"


    The me w glowed with fiery red light as Leon charged toward Rocky. The de of the weapon was shaped like a lion''s w and had the ability to channel Leon''s mes into a concentrated burst of power.


    As he swung the weapon towards Rocky, a stream of mes erupted from it, engulfing the Rock Golem in a fiery ze. Mason watched with a smile on his face, seemingly unfazed by the attack. "Rocky, use Earthquake," hemanded his beast.


    With a powerful stomp of its rocky feet, the Rock Golem caused the ground to tremble and shake violently. Leon struggled to maintain his bnce, but Ember was knocked off its feet and sent tumbling backward.


    Mason saw an opportunity and shouted, "Now, Rocky, finish it off with Rock Throw!" The Rock Golem lifted its arms and sent a huge rock tumbling toward the ze Lion, but something else happened.


    As the Rock Golem lifted its arms to send a huge rock toward the ze Lion, Leon''s beast, Ember, saw the iing attack and quickly reacted. With a quick movement, it summoned its Inferno w, a powerful weapon that was capable of releasing intense heat and me.


    Ember''s Inferno w shed against the iing rock, causing a massive explosion that sent shockwaves throughout the area. The disciples watching the battle from the sidelines were forced to take several steps back to avoid being caught in the st.


    Mason was surprised by the sudden turn of events. He had not expected Leon''s beast to be able to destroy the rock with its weapon. However, he quickly regained hisposure.


    "You''re good, but this ends now," Mason said with a determined look in his eyes. Leon didn''t know what Mason meant, but he had a feeling that things were about to get even more intense.


    Mason began to channel his talent, and the Rock Golem was suddenly infused with an immense amount of strength. The ground began to shake as the massive beast stomped its feet, causing a small earthquake to ripple through the area.


    Leon and Ember were caught off guard by the sudden earthquake, struggling to maintain their bnce on the unstable ground. Mason took advantage of their momentary weakness andmanded Rocky to charge at them with incredible speed.


    Leon quickly gathered his wits and shouted, "Ember, dodge, and use Inferno w!" Ember swiftly dodged Rocky''s attack and unleashed a fiery w strike at the Rock Golem, but it didn''t seem to have much effect.


    Mason smirked as he saw that Leon''s attack didn''t do much damage to his fortified Rock Golem. He knew that his beast was stronger and more durable than Ember. "Rocky, Rock Throw on Ember," hemanded, pointing towards the ze Lion.


    Rocky quickly lifted a massive rock from the ground and hurled it at Ember with tremendous force. Leon watched with dismay as the rock hurtled toward his beast. He knew that Ember wouldn''t be able to dodge it in time.<novelsnext></novelsnext>


    The rock struck Ember head-on, crushing the ze Lion and leaving him unable to continue the battle. Leon rushed over to his fallen beast, tears welling up in his eyes. He knew that he had lost the battle and that Ember''s injuries were too severe for him to continue fighting.


    Mason and Rocky stood triumphantly, their victory clear for all to see. The other disciples watched in awe as the earth-element beasts continued to disy their formidable power.


    After emerging victorious from his battle against Leon, Mason turned his attention to the other disciples, who were watching the fight with great interest. With a confident smirk on his face, he looked around and asked, "Who wants to challenge me for the right to enter the mysterious building first?"


    The disciples looked at each other nervously, unsure if any of them wanted to take on Mason and his powerful beast. They whispered amongst themselves, trying to decide who should step up to the challenge.


    "You go," one disciple whispered to another.


    "No way, he''s too strong," the other replied.


    Mason could sense their hesitation and chuckled to himself. He knew that none of them would dare to challenge him after witnessing the power of his beast.


    The disciples continued to murmur amongst themselves, debating whether they should try their luck against Mason. But after a few moments of hesitation, they decided to back down.


    "I don''t think any of us are brave enough to take you on," one of the disciples finally spoke up.


    Mason smiled smugly, pleased with himself. "I thought as much," he said, his voice dripping with superiority. "Looks like I''ll be the first one to enter the mysterious building after all."


    The other disciples nodded silently, conceding to Mason''s dominance. They watched as he and Rocky walked towards the entrance of the building, their heads held high with pride.


    However, as Mason was about to enter the building, he caught sight of a woman walking toward it ahead of him. His brow furrowed in annoyance, and he quickened his pace to catch up with her.


    "Who are you?" he demanded, his voice sharp and usatory.


    The woman turned to face him, her expression calm and collected. "I am here to enter the building," she replied evenly.


    Mason sneered at her. "You think you can just walk in here and take what''s mine?" Mason was angry that this woman could go directly without his permission.
