"This is the might of the legend, Valt Aoi! Now both competitors are tied, 1-1!" Hanami announced while the crowd was roaring of excitement, cheering on their number one legendary blader.

Shasa stared down at awe. Valt truly was amazing! Valt has gotten much stronger over the past few years. Yeah he was strong in the past...but this WAY different! His strength can't be compared to his past now. Shasa kind of felt bad that she wasn't able to improve that much. But she promised that she was going to get much stronger too! Just like Valt!

Shu was looking down with a smile, proud that Valt was able to win that match.

In other hands, Lane was covering his face with an evil grin.

"Yes...My Flare just keeps on growing..." Lane said in an evil voice.

"I'll put a stop to that Flare of yours!" Valt said with a smile with having both of his arms raised and a blue aura surrounding him.

Shasa held her hands together, she couldn't help but keep her smile open wide.

"3rd Battle!" The referee announced.

Both bladers got into their launching positions. There was a moment of silence before the referee announced:

"Ready? Set!"

"3!"

"2!"

"1!"

"GO SHOOT!" Both bladers launched with full might and pulled of sparking shoots. Variant Lucifers rubber tab blades stuck out and made a wall around itself. Both beyblades landed heavily at the stadium.

"Push fast, Valkyrie!!!" Valt called out as he pulled his fist back and threw it out front. Valkyrie responded by accelerating and both beys collided in the center and Valkyrie was able to send Lucifer flying into the air, breaking through it's barrier completely.

Lane just had an evil grin on his face as he covered his face with his hand and gripped his right shoulder and having his purple flare surrounding him.

"This is it! Yes...More...MORE!!!" Lane screamed, having his full evil Flare blazing around himself.

Valt had a stressed/surprised look on his face.

"Burn more!" Lane screamed and roared out a terrifying scream while his hair is now streaming cyan. This caused a barrage of a wind storm coming towards Valt.

Valt had his face covered to withstand it.

"His Flare is so strong..." Valt muttered out.

"LUCIFER!!!" Lane called out and his bey had his flare surrounding Lucifer and the avatar of Variant Lucifer was summoned. It was a humanoid creature with black skin, light-gray portions throughout the body, and violet armor. Seven pronged helmet (six violet and one black). A sun-like spike crest on the chest with a metal orb in the center which represents the metal core on Lucifers sparking chip. Magenta neon lines in the thorax region and pink neon lines throughout the body. Six violet and black wing-like structures that extend and open to form pink neon wings. Classic-green claws, elbow spikes, knee spikes and feet spikes and a very long tail. it also has six wings which represents the six rubber blades on it's Chassis.

Both beys collided and Lucifer sent Valkyrie into the air.

"We're not going down here!" Valt screamed out as he spun around in a circle and releasing his powerful blue resonance. Valkyrie was able to save itself and Valt summoned Brave Valkyries aura.

Both beys were attacking each other head on. Giving powerful blow after blow.

Shasa stared at amazement, she can't believe how amazing battles can be. Valt Aoi was stronger than he used to be.

"Full Power!" Valt yelled out as he held out his fist with Brave Valkyries avatar right by his side.

"Take it all!" Lane screamed as his eyes were glowing yellow and his marks are glowing bright purple as he screamed out and having the Variant Lucifer avatar behind himself.

"Lane..." Shu muttered, he was completely stressed out about this match too. He feels like he failed Lane.

Valt quickly lifted his hand grabbed a blue handle and swung it back.

"BRAVE SWORD!!!" Valt yelled out his special move as he swung his arm across and placing his hands out front like he was holding a huge blue sword made out of blue aura.

Brave Valkyries three sword blades started glowing and raced towards Lucifer.

Lane quickly clapped the side of his hands together and yelled:

"VARIANT DISASTER!!!" Lane called out another special move as his entire body was covered in raging purple Flare.

CLASH

Both beys collided at the middle of the stadium, creating a huge explosion!

Shasa had to cover herself up a little bit. But once she opened her eyes, she was shocked.

Valkyrie got knocked out into the air and-

BURST

The explosion stopped and there was a moment of silence. Everyone was taking a second to take in on what just happened.

Shasa couldn't believe her eyes. Valkyrie was bursted...it was laying right there on the ground.

Valkyrie was just laying on the ground in two parts. Valt had a complete look of horror on his face as Valkyrie bursted right in front of him.

"Variant Lucifer! Burst Finish! The final score is 3-1! Lane Valhalla wins!" The referee announced.

"B-Burst..." Hanami stuttered, completely shocked by what just happened.

"BURST!!! This is an incredible turn of events! The legend of legends, Valt Aoi has just been defeated!"

Valt gripped his fist in frustration. Shasa still had her hands held together and a horrified look on her face. Valt just...lost.

"And, the one who toppled them all to stand at the top of the Legend Festival...is the flame of darkness, Lane Valhalla!!!"

"I've finally done it...this is it! This is the Flare!" Lane cried out and let out a horrifying, painful scream which sent a chill and horrified, terrible feeling towards Shasa and everyone else. If there was one word Shasa had to use to describe Lane, she would use the word Insane but she'd never heard of more ear piercing scream than Lanes.

Shu looked pained to see his best friend lose.

That was it... the match was over...Valt lost.
