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
Maxim moved slightly, and his gaze fixed towards the arena. At this point, Ricky laid there on the ground with a weak energy signature. He was utterly defeated. Although he was grazed by Maxim and Ethan’s clash, his true injuries came from Zephyr. The clash between the two masters did not help at all, and it left him lying there on the ground. Zephyr however, stood there with a sword in hand. He carried an anxious look towards Maxim. “Are you a practitioner of evil?” Maxim asked, his expression changed slightly. “No!” Zephyr replied sternly. Maxim’s stare was hurting him, it pierced him, though he did not react to it.“Hmm…” Maxim nodded, before turning to Ethan, “You have lost!” Was that it? Ethan’s expression soured. Was that all to it? “Brother Maxim, do not play coy. There’s a good chance this b*stard’s an apprentice of the Lunar Academy. If you play coy, you’d be dooming us all. If he was a Lunar apprentice, then he is a threat, a dangerous, limitless threat, do you know how cruc
“I have things to do, I shall take my leave then!” Ethan said to brother Albert with a sour expression. He did not wait for Albert to reply as he quickly left the scene. Brother Albert could not help but make an expression as he watched Ethan leave. He then looked to Maxim, “Horizon’s defeat today would no doubt add to the grudge they have against you. Ethan’s getting more and more boisterous hasn’t he…” Maxim interjected, “Then let him come!” Maxim stated quietly as he maintained his stoicism. Brother Albert could only shake his head at that, he then looked to the arena.Zephyr stood there shaking. Although nothing happened, Ethan Cline was still an Academy leader. He could have easily killed Zephyr in an instant. Although Ethan was held back by Maxim, a small force was able to leak out and it hurt him. “This kid’s something else. We overlooked him, haven’t we? He’s strong, and has achieved a Focus, plus his speed is out of this world. Even if he lacked the potential, he still has a
With another flick of his finger, a stream of draconic energy poured out. It immediately destroyed Ethan’s energy. ‘I must take this time to recover!’ Zephyr thought as he recalled the blow he sustained from Ethan. Even with Maxim’s protection, he had suffered greatly from it. With the movement of his energies, Zephyr slowly emitted draconic Might. Stream after stream of energy came and went with differing amounts of strength. They came together like a river that flowed through his body. Zephyr continued to recuperate.On this day, as Zephyr recuperated, a girl’s voice came from outside his room, “Brother Khan, are you here?” The voice was unmistakable, it was Amber. “Sister Amber? Hold on, I’m coming…” Zephyr replied as he packed his things before exiting the building. Outside his room stood Amber, who under the sun’s rays looked humbly attractive. Zephyr felt slightly uneasy at the sight of her.Amber was part of his cohort, and one of the few new recruits who was a girl. Therefore
“What luck, brother!” Tristan said as he and Murray rushed over to meet Zephyr as they left. Tristan made sure to make his jealousy known by patting Zephyr’s shoulder violently. “Is Moonview Cave really that special?” Zephyr asked. Although one could communicate with previous Supreme masters through their essences, it was a daunting task indeed. No matter how valuable Moonview Cave was, it did not warrant the excitement around it.“How dare you, do you not know what gift you’ve just been given?!” Murray laughed. He then explained further, “Within the Moonview Cave, apart from the essences of previous masters, there are also many lessons about fighting styles and what not. I’ve been into the Cave once, and upon the cave walls. There were many written lessons and teachings from previous generations. It was there that I realized something through the teachings which allowed me to improve tenfold!” Tristan added to the discussion, “Indeed indeed. I too experienced that. It was through the
