I believe you already lost your chance Kayle replied smugly looking up at the writhing body of the dragon that was condensing in the sky Whereas before it had simply been a hanging specter now each scale stood out in sharp relief The dragonÆs claws were the size of coffins Thin flames spurted out of its nostrils as it imperiously surveyed the humans below it This is all mine
Sky Slayingg Huang Li began Huang Shou sagged to the ground seemingly haven given all his strength to the formation The sky above darkened further the dragon casting a long shadow across the arena floor People in the stands chattered excitedly enjoying the powerful display
Thank you Huang Li Kayle replied with a satisfied expression Then he went completely still and focused his entire person on his image For a split second the purest form of Kayle image was like a blinding lunar eclipse below the massive body of a dragon A single pure divider between two vast swirling darknesses Or perhaps it was to distant points in the darkness connected by a single tether of energy The image spun slowly infinite and shifting
Even Paolo didnÆt know the true form and function of that image That was why fights against Kayle were so interesting
SllaassH The blade of Huang LiÆs sword was covered in a tornado that he brought brutally downward in a vertical cut Kayle adjusted his footing and moved his hand horizontally That blurred motion became the line of energy the divider
Before the force of the Skills met the two images clashed Without any fanfare KayleÆs image devoured the dragon of wind and ripped to shreds the hollowed out Skill that remained beneath it
It is not a fair contest Paolo reflected almost sadly as Huang Li collapsed In terms of specificity and dedication he is not in our league They might seem close but that last difference is not a simple gap to cross If images were colors Huang Li would be blue and Kayle would be turquoise Both a similar color but considering the total package
Across the stage Huang Shou released a long sigh as he saw his younger partner collapse A few seconds later the audience erupted in cheers
Chapter 1456
Congratulations Your Skill Nether Sensation has grown to Level 298
Randidly pursed his lips and shook his head after scanning through the result He waved his fingers through the air and the intricate weave of Nether he had been knitting since the first match now came undone The rotation of his Nether Nebula reversed and suddenly the pulsing Nether threads were wound back around RandidlyÆs core like a fire hose spun back onto a large spool
Almost unconsciously Randidly brought his left hand and pressed it to his chest He closed his eyes and focused on the sensation as he gathered the materials for the weave back within himself As he had worked on this with more and more dedication he couldnÆt miss the fact that the Nether he used somehow remembered how it had been used in the past Gradually the compatibility between that Nether and RandidlyÆs intent was rising Combined with his own improvements in understanding and Skill Level
Well for the moment it still isnÆt enough Randidly reflected as all his Nether arrived within him Then due to an all okayÆ message from Tatiana Randidly signaled the referee below to begin the match The two teams were allowed to walk out to the roaring approval of the crowd In the second match of the day Donny and Glendel would be taking on the combination of Tykes and Dinesh
The two duos were familiar with each other before Tykes and Dinesh left to become NathanÆs guardians they had been influential members of Donnyton But in the year and a half since they had left the Earth had experienced an explosive amount of growth in terms of fighting strength As Randidly followed the figures with his eyes even his Grim Intuition could only provide a vague answer on who was more powerful
The referee below raised his chin oblivious to RandidlyÆs scrutiny Let the second match begin
Well the best way to reach an answer is just to watch anyway Randidly reflected as he made himself comfortable peering over the edge of his island Both sides exploded into motion
If the first match was Kayle deliberately applying escalating pressure on Huang Li in order to flush out his full potential the second match was two old rivals furiously throwing haymakers at each other from the jump Dinesh clapped his hands together and summoned his Labyrinth of mirrors hiding his and Tykes’ presence in almost a hundred rotating panes of reflective glass They shifted and cut sideways soon surrounding the entire arena
At the same time Glendel elegantly waved his hand and summoned three ghastly specters that surged out of his shadow a five meter tall four armed gorilla a human sized heron with lines of razor sharp teeth along its beak and a high mound of slime that appeared to be crackling with electricity While the heron beat its wings and then launched itself forward to pierce through the nearest mirrors the ooze trembled and then began to flow around Glendel for its masterÆs protection
Of course Tykes was already on the move From one of the tumbling planes of glass the man dashed forward his huge iron ball raised to smash Glendel to pieces before he could dominate the battle with his ghosts Donny sidestepped into TykesÆ path and raised his shield A powerful image of momentum and stalwart purity faced off against each other
Randidly had to squint as DonnyÆs image released a brilliant radiance Really impressive manifestation but still
Tykes was stopped dead but Donny was forced back several steps from the collision He staggered so far back that DonnyÆs back foot accidentally stepped on the ooze and lines of electricity raced up his calf His face twisted into a grimace even as Tykes grabbed a chain from his waist and hooked it onto his absolutely massive iron ball
Rather than attacking the Donny struggling to recover Tykes flung his chained ball directly backward The four armed ape smashed its knuckles into the ground and bounded forward to bowl Tykes over before he could continue his attacks Tykes’ hand snapped shut on the clinking chain and then he twitched his wrist to haul the ball back toward him
It blasted apart the spinning panes directly behind him revealing a Dinesh that was gripping the chain and crouching on top of the heavy ball Tykes completely disregarded the ball then and lowered his shoulders toward the five meter tall ape Although he seemed like a child compared to it he accelerated forward and speared it in the chest The momentum that he could instantly generate was honestly intimidating
Donny regained his footing and unleashed a gleaming golden slash at TykesÆ back while the other man was grappling with the ape specter Then Donny turned to the approaching Dinesh and spun his sword in his hand So can you get past me
Dinesh didnÆt even answer His hands flickered and several daggers releasing green smoke fanned outward from between his fingers DonnyÆs face turned serious Aegis
Five shields composed entirely of light spun around him and then slid into place to block the daggers But Dinesh and the iron ball were moving so quickly that Donny swore and threw himself forward to intercept the heavy projectile once more When Donny moved into position Dinesh leapt off the ball and up over him pulling out another three smoking daggers while he flipped through the air
Randidly could see the indecision on DonnyÆs face for a split second But ultimately he settled himself to stop the metal ball which was still heading toward Glendel who wasnÆt quite fully covered by the ooze Between the daggers and the ball it was rather obvious which was more dangerous to a Glendel who only had up to his legs covered by the ooze
At the same time before Dinesh could throw his daggers the spectral heron screeched and dove toward the manÆs exposed back Its claws raked across his leather armor but that Dinesh simply shattered like the reflection that he was Donny sensed what was happening but had to smash his shield against the iron ball that arrived once more
Dinesh reformed on the ground between Donny and Glendel daggers fanning in every direction They ripped through the spectral ooze and made the substance sizzle and collapse Glendel narrowed his eyes as he looked at the rapidly disappearing defensive ghost With light steps Dinesh crossed the distance and arrived before the solemn faced Glendel before he could summon another helper
