From MC's perspective:
A few hours later,
The purple essence and healing essence have recovered. After that, I stood up from the spot and removed the barrier.
Swish!
"Are you ready?" Carlos Kent appeared next second.
Hearing that I nodded my head. Then he grabbed my shoulder and the next second we appeared in the air.
In a blink of an eye, we left the place and started returning to the Academy.
In the Academy,
Amelia is sitting in her cabin. Now she is in a dilemma. There are 17 more warriors ready to fight. But she doesn't know whom to select.
Everyone is ready to fight. But Zack Lockwood has a limit. After thinking about it, she decided to fix 3 duels today.
A female warrior from the rainwater faction. There is a male warrior from the metal element faction. And third warrior from the Flame faction.
After selecting the name, she sends the list to the dean, Rebecca. Once the dean approves it then she can ask the warriors to present.
A few minutes later, she received the approval. Then she sent a message to the warriors.
A few hours later,
I returned to the academy. By that time it was already noon.
Carlos Kent directly dropped me at the entrance of the B-grade institution before leaving.
A small smile appeared on my face. Carlos Kent has become my helper. I almost forgot that he is the special faction head.
Shaking my head, I walked to the entrance. Then I used the access code to walk inside
Just as I'm walking forward. Amelia appeared before me.
"Zack, you are going to fight 3 duels today," Amelia said to me.
"The first duel is against the RainWater Faction," She added again.
Hearing that I replied, "I'm ready to go."
Then she started leading me towards the new area.
Soon, we reached the rainwater faction. Many female warriors were waiting outside of the building.
Just as she was getting closer. I saw a middle-aged woman in a blue tuxedo walking outside of the building.
She is similar in age to Martha.
The women in blue tuxedos walked towards me.
"Elder Amelia, my student is ready. What about him?' She asked.
"Lily, he is ready. Can we go to the training ground?" Amelia replied.
Hearing that she started leading towards the training ground.
I furrowed my eyebrows. From the beginning to the end, she didn't even look at me.
On the other hand, Amelia saw through his thoughts.
"Lily has a complex background. Her family has ties with the White Palace. She is a loner in the academy," She said in a low tone.
"I can hear that," Lily said without turning back.
On the other hand, I couldn't help but think of an old friend.
"Maria Frazier," I said in my heart. I wonder what she is doing.
Soon we reached their training ground. Then I saw someone was already standing on the dual platform.
"Linda, you can do it," Lily said in a serious tone.
lightsΝοvel.cοm Without wasting any more time, I walked to the platform.
After arriving, I stood opposite her. Then I began to observe her. Then I felt a faint coercion from her.
"This?" I raised my eyebrows in surprise.
"Is it a half-step SS elite warrior?'
"No!'
"She is close to a breakthrough," I said in my heart.
"Maybe after this duel. She might break her limit,' I muttered to myself.
Then I turned around to take a look at Lily.
"It's interesting. She is planning to use me as a stepping stone," I said in my heart.
On the other hand, Lily was surprised.
"He is sharp," She said.
Amelia easily saw through what was happening to Linda.
"Are you planning to turn your student into a teaching staff?" Amelia asked.
Lily's eyes flickered.
"She is not supposed to rot here," Lily said in a cold tone. Which had strong dissatisfaction with the academy's policies.
"Sigh!"
Amelia let out a sigh.
On the other hand, Linda squinted her eyes. She is confident in defeating Zack Lockwood in front of everyone.
When Amelia gave the signal.
She released her water technique. In the next second, several water drops formed in mid-air.
Swish!
The next second, several water drops shop at the enemy.
On the other hand, I saw the water technique was extremely fast.
I brought the sword outside to block. The water drops forcibly collided with the blade.
Boom!
A deafening sound reverberated throughout the area.
Tap! Tap!
I retreated a few steps backward.
"It's heavy," I muttered to myself.
Seeing that I started swinging the sword again.
Boom! Boom!
One after another a heavy water droplet slammed into the sword blade.
I thought Linda won't be able to continue it forever.
But as time passed, Linda's attacks became only faster.
Boom!
I deflected the 1st attack. But the second water droplet hit my forearm.
Boom!
"Hmmm," I felt a pain. But thanks to my body strength. The skin remained unscathed and the targeted spot became extremely red.
"Lightning Phantom Technique," The next second, I released the lightning movement technique.
The Purple lightning covered legs in a blink of an eye.
Swish
The next second, I disappeared from the spot. In a zigzag manner, I started moving closer to her
Amelia and Lily are both surprised by Zack's move. Both knew Linda was stronger than previous participants. She is especially close to breaking the limit.
But her attack had only managed to leave the red spot on the Zack. Which shows that Zack's physique is stronger than they had expected.
Amelia suddenly realized the power behind Zack's punch in the previous duel. They had assumed it was because of lightning power.
But now she knows it was a combination of both body strength and lightning power.
Lily's eyes flickered. She too saw through this as well. Earlier, she was confident about Linda's strength. Now seeing Zack's body strength her expression turned serious.
Now the duel results can go either way. On top of it, Zack didn't even start to attack.
On the other hand, I reached closer to Linda to strike. When I tried to swing the sword.
A water bubble appeared all of a second.
Swish!
My blade stuck inside the water bubble. When I tried to retract the sword. I felt the sword's size had doubled.
I raised my eyebrows in surprise.
"Lightning Wheel," I released the next attack.
A powerful purple lightning wheel around me.
Boom!
The next second, an explosion occurs. Both the lightning wheel and the water bubble exploded into pieces.
Then I retreated a few steps backward.
Tap!
Linda also stepped backward. But her expression was filled with surprise and shock. The water bubble was her important defensive technique.
Once a body or object gets stuck in it. It's not that easy to escape. But Zack used his lightning technique to cancel it.
At the same time, Lily widened her eyes in surprise.
This time she has witnessed the power of the lightning element. It was completely destructive.
Amelia was shocked as well. Both she and Lily knew about Linda's strength. If Zack was able to defeat her, then he could have fewer rivals in the Super Elite Rank.
On the other hand, I rushed out to attack again. This time I raised my hand to attack. A quick gleam flashes in my eyes.
Her water element is different. It's heavy.
The next second, I used the blood energy from the bones. The blood energy quickly reaches my fist. The next second, a purple arc appeared around my fist.
Linda didn't give up. She used the water bubble again. This time the water bubble was small in size. It's enough to block the first attack.
'Blood Fist'
The first reaches her abdomen. But the water bubble appeared out of nowhere and blocked the attack.
Boom!
A deafening sound reverberated throughout the area.
Tap!
We both retreated a few steps backward from the impact. Using this, I quickly stabilized my moves and decided to use the lightning-finger technique.
Swish!
The next second, a purple beam released from the finger. It was so quick. It reaches her in the blink of an eye.
Linda was startled. She tried to use the water bubble again. But the speed of the lightning beam was faster.
She is too late to evade it.
Boom!
The next second, the lightning attack hits her heavily in the abdomen. The lightning power tore through the flesh and left a deep scar.
When she thought it was over. One after another lightning beams shot towards her.
Boom!
The lightning attack hits the previous spot again causing severe bleeding.
"Linda, it's okay. Forfeit the duel," Lily's voice reached my ears.
But Linda on the other hand tried to stand up.
Seeing that I raised the black sword.
"He is going to use that move," Amelia said in a solemn tone. She knows that sword lightning move is going to be powerful.
Lily showed a concerned expression. Linda has shown her strength. It's time for her to accept the defeat.
