Yang was much like Maxim, though Maxim’s indifference was more neutral, Yang’s expressions were usually cold and very silent. “Brother… no!” Brother Albert frantically tried to dissuade Yang from going. Yang was still a rookie in The Boundless Academy, even with his ancient blood, his power could not grow more than it would naturally allow. In an instant, Yang had entered the arena. “Hahaha… you sure are a bold one. My apprentice is still under the influence of the Dance, I must also warn you that he has had some mastery over the technique as well. Once he goes all-out, I’m sure even an Agile of level three could be instantly killed. I doubt you would…” Suddenly, a loud scream erupted, interrupting Ethan.The entire arena was shaking. All eyes were on Yang now. Streams of dark energy wrapped around his body and coiled around like snakes, it was as though each stream had a life of its own. Before the strong man could do anything, Yang had shot all his streams into him. Yang then swiftl
The Chimera roared, it looked life-like, as though it was really there and it rushed at Yang with such vigor. Thousands of dirty-yellow energy balls the size of fists manifested quickly, before charging over to him. “Chimera Armor! How dare you use Chimera Armor? Cline, you’ve gone too far!” Brother Albert called out angrily. Maxim did not say anything, though the energy around him felt hot and raging. Great runes started to manifest and surround him, almost as if they were about to boil over. His expressionless gaze looked over to Ethan, letting his gaze pierce him.“Heh heh heh… Brother Maxim, Brother Albert, humor me. No one said you couldn’t use weapons during the matches. Chimera Armor’s a type of weapon no? Doesn’t that mean it’ll be allowed?” the man replied.“How dare you!”This was a shameful statement, one which only those without dignity would dare say. Everyone was stirred. Chimera Armor was a prized possession of Horizon Peak, with many storied histories to its name. It
“You lot are nothing but an itch for my apprentice to scratch. This is Chimera Armor, do you know how magnificent that was? Not only would the defenses be incredibly powerful, but once worn, there would be no hope for the energies around to be sucked and used. In other words, your energy attacks wouldn’t even touch a strand of his hair!” Ethan stated proudly, chuckling at the Supreme apprentices.“How dare you!”Ethan’s scathing statement had rightfully riled up the apprentices, but they were unable to do anything about it at all. Their powers were much worse than Yang’s, causing him to be defeated. How could they avenge him knowing this? “It would seem that there’s no other challenger… hahaha!” Ethan laughed at the Supreme apprentices. Maxim’s stoic face became even more so. Although he did not say anything, the anger within his eyes was undeniable. Though, there was nothing he could do about the use of Chimera Armor.“Brother, can I borrow your weapon?” Zephyr said to Tristan as h
Ethan’s expression quickly turned sour. ‘How was that possible? How did he do it?’ he thought to himself. “What are you doing? Get up!” Ethan then yelled out frantically into the arena. The apprentice that was sent flying slowly got up as he coughed all the while. He carried a look of fear as he stared at Zephyr.What went wrong? He had sent forth his energy, locking down Zephyr who stood there motionless like a fool, waiting to be killed. He had not expected that before he even touched him, Zephyr had appeared behind his back with Wolfsbane coming down on him. The force was too much and he was sent flying out of the arena.‘It’s just… a coincidence, a lucky shot!’ the fallen man thought to himself. Zephyr was nothing more than an insect, how could he match his own Agile powers, even more so as he was donned in Chimera Armor. It was a truly powerful weapon that allowed its users to even contend with Agiles of level four!On the other hand, brother Albert watched on eagerly. This was
Besides, the apprentice’s movements were hindered by the Chimera Armor. He was not as agile as Zephyr. Zephyr was not constricted in his movements as compared to him. In other words, the Armor was rendered useless now. “Damn it!” Ethan cursed. He and the rest quickly realized Zephyr’s tactic; causing Ethan’s expression to sour greatly.Zephyr brandished Wolfsbane and had an offensive stance, ready to attack. With his Thunderfoot activated, his speed was terrifying. In an instant, the apprentice was knocked out. Zephyr stopped there, choosing not to continue. “Damn it all, brother, we submit!” Ethan said to brother Albert. If they did not yield, Zephyr would most definitely destroy the Armor.“Oh… okay…” Brother Albert replied, feigning ignorance as he spoke slowly. Right as he was about to call the fight off, Zephyr decided to make his move. He made his final attack. The Chimera Armor was going to be… destroyed?!“No!!” Ethan cried out in pain as he watched their prized possession b
Was he ignoring him? What attitude did Zephyr have? Ricky was having none of it, his whole body trembled from the sight, and the energy around him was coming to a boil. “You’re dead, Zephyr!” he yelled. Zephyr moved his palm slightly, as he sent Wolfsbane over with the strength of a dragon behind it. “Die!” Ricky shouted as he sent a fist to meet him.Stream after stream of dazzling energy came over Ricky as he activated his trump card — Golden Shield! Ricky had trained and perfected this technique after enrolling in the Academy. It had peaked in breaking new levels. He had no intention of dodging Zephyr’s attack at all.“Away with you!” Ricky cried out as his fist met with Wolfsbane. He had poured a lot of energy into his fist, thus giving it a bright glow. With a loud bang, Wolfsbane was sent flying out of arena grounds. Ricky had a big smile on his face after that. “Is that your best-” Before he could finish, his expression suddenly changed as a terrifying shadow appeared before h
“What the Hell was that?”“Yeah, how did this brat conjure up such powerful electricity?”“Electric energy… does that mean that this kid hails from an ancient bloodline? This type of energy is a rare phenomenon that many academies sought after! It’s incredibly rare, unseen in most!”“Impossible, he only had two streams of light during the test. If he had an ancient bloodline, the lights would’ve shown them long ago!”Many apprentices started to debate the event that was newly unfolded.“What an attack!!” Ricky spoke up as he chuckled. He looked to his chest, finding a fist sized hole there that leaked blood. The wound would not kill him, and it mattered little. The power Zephyr displayed was not weak, though he was still just a Strength. Ricky’s Golden Shield could deflect some of the power that came his way, more so because he was an Agile of level four. He would never let himself be killed by a Strength of a level nine insect.“I admit I was being careless earlier, you won’t g
“Don’t do it!” Brother Albert yelled furiously. His energy boiled over as he reached out his hand to grab at Ethan. Although it was a simple move, all the primordial energy within a mile was sucked into his palm, making it seem as though it solidified. This one move almost caused nearby folk to spit out blood.No one had expected Ethan to attack, especially with such bloodlust behind it. Ethan was adamant for Zephyr to die then and there. However, Maxim had counterattacked earlier than brother Albert. He had rushed over the second Ethan moved. With a swoosh of his robe, a rush of energy came rolling towards Ethan. If one looked closely they could see stream after stream of red on Maxim’s face, showing how out of balance his energy was. Ethan’s attack was too sudden.Maxim and Ethan’s energies clashed, ripping the arena in two. Runes began to manifest all over the arena in a dazzling display. The protective dome that brother Albert had put in place burst open from the force. Many rune
