Chapter 812: Defeating Hughes Chapter 812: Defeating Hughes From MC’s Perspective: Hughes smashes into the platform very hard.
Seeing that I didn’t give him any chance to recover.
I again released the lightning sword attack.
Boom!
The purple beam once again hits his body.
This time he took the direct brunt of the attack.
Since he didn’t use his element to block it.
The lightning power started causing more damage to his body.
The surface of his skin starts smoking.
The lightning element not only damages the flesh.
But also went deep inside to attack the bones.
Because of it, Hughes started feeling immense pain.
He didn’t expect the early Stage lightning element to be this powerful.
He had let down his guard for a moment.
Now he is suffering from it.
When he realized his head.
He saw Zack Lockwood preparing for another move.
A hint of apprehension flashes in his eyes.
He had wanted to win this duel.
But he doesn’t want to pay the cost for it.
If he continues to fight, then he will suffer more injuries.
His foundation may get destroyed.
So after careful consideration.
“I give up,” He admitted defeat.
Hearing that I stopped using the lightning technique and I retreated backwards towards my place.
The next second, the barrier starts to come down slowly.
The other hand, Hughes managed to get up despite the injuries and bleeding.
His face showed complex emotions.
Earlier, everyone underestimated Zack Lockwood.
But he can tell that the lightning element’s power can offset his Peak Stage Variant Element.

When the barrier came down completely.
The announcer walked in to announce the result.
“Zack Lockwood is the 2nd winner,” He said in a loud tone.
Hearing that the spectators started to chant my name loudly.
Then I started walking back to the Challenger’s room.
The medical team took him away.
When I returned to the Challenger’s room.
The expressions of the people are different.
Earlier, some had complex emotions and few others had fear.
But this time, everyone is avoiding my gaze except the Ice element warrior and the female warrior who got a free pass.
“What was his name again?” I asked myself in my heart.
Then I recalled both of their names appearing on the big screen a few minutes ago.
“Clinton” “Wanda,” I muttered to myself.
I don’t know much about Wanda.
But I have a strong feeling that I’m going to face Clinton in the finals tomorrow.
Perceiving my gaze, they are also showing fierce gaze in response.
After taking a glance at them, I turned towards the dual platform.
It’s already midnight.
Today’s duel has come to an end.
Then the announcer said to everyone that tomorrow’s fuel is going to start a bit late.
The duel time is 12 pm.
Hearing that, I felt that it was a good decision.
I can sleep better after returning to my room.
The announcer then thanked everyone and asked people to leave quietly.
The next second, I started walking out as well.
A few minutes later, I was outside.
But I found no sign of Elder Robbie.
Fortunately, the fat arena manager was still here.
When I asked him, He told me about Elder Robbie.
“He has work,” I grunted.
Then I thanked Manager before leaving by myself.
It doesn’t take too much time to reach the Federation HQ.
I have done it before.
10 minutes later, I returned to the towering building.
Then I used the lift to get back to my room.
After entering inside my room, I took a bath before going directly to sleep.
The following day, I woke up a bit late.
It’s 7 AM in the morning.
Since the duel is going to happen at noon.
I got enough time to get ready and cultivate.
After getting out of the bed, I started doing my morning routine.
25 minutes later, I entered the essence chamber to cultivate.
…
HQ, top floor: Time went by, When it was 10 AM in the morning.
Robbie came to the top floor to meet the Federation Head.
Federation Head Ben is already there sitting behind the desk.
After sensing the presence of Robbie.
He allowed him to enter inside.
Robbie walked in and stood in front of him.
Seeing that Head nodded at him.
“I guess you visited Redwood City yesterday?” “Did you find anything?” Federation Had asked.
Robbie thought for a moment before saying,”There is no sign of the Blood Shadow Force.
But I have learnt different news.” Then he started to tell what the City Lord Marie told him.
A few minutes later, A look of confusion appeared on Federation Head Ben’s face.
“The Eclipse Institute and the Giant Tower Academy uh?” He said in his heart.
He knew about his institute.
Those institutions are learning and training institutes for the young warriors.
Its system is different from the Federation and other big organizations in the inner post.
But as far as he knows, the institutes are more involved in teaching than the conflict.
He then looked at Robbie and said,”Maybe they are here for The top list ranking duels.” Hearing Robbie nodded his head and said,”I took that.
But the problem is that they are behaving strangely.
They hid their identity to enter the city.” “And what’s more surprising is that the people from these two groups are working together.
If they are here for the competition, then why all this secrecy and joint cooperation,” Robbie said in a doubtful tone.
“You are right.
It seems they are there for something.
But we don’t have any bad blood with them,” Ben replied.
After thinking for a moment, he said,”Let’s see what they are up to?” “At the same time, don’t let down your guard.
The Blood Shadow Killers may find any time to enter Redwood City,” Ben added.
Robbie nodded his head at him.
Then he asked,”Head, what about Zack’s hunting team?” Federation Head Ben smiled and replied,”Looks like he is going to win the internal competition easily.
Then we can start selecting the suitable warriors for the new hunting team.” “Once the competition is over.
We can send the new team to complete some missions,” Ben added further.
One hour left before the duel, I walked out of my room.
This time I didn’t wait for Elder Robbie.
I don’t know where he is right now.
So I decided to walk by myself.
After entering inside the lift, I pressed the button.
The lift started to go downwards.
When it reached the lobby.
I stepped outside.
There are not many people inside the lobby.
The staff behind the administration desk spotted me.
Seeing that, I wasn’t surprised.
Everyone knows the dual timing here.
After glancing at them, I walked towards the exit.
Outside, The drivers are waiting for the customers.
But I ignored them and decided to walk by myself.
10 minutes, I reached the arena building by myself.
I see that crowds are entering by a different gate into the arena.
Then I walked into the building.
I guess there are many warriors who will come to the Challenger’s room.
When I got there.
I saw there were only 2 people standing inside the room.
One is the female Warrior named Wanda and the other one is the ice elemental warrior Clinton.
Hearing my footsteps, they nodded at me.
Seeing them, I simply nodded at them before turning towards the duel arena.
I don’t know who I am going to fight.
Before the duel, one of us will get the free pass to enter the finals directly.
I have already entered group finals by using a free pass earlier.
I don’t think that same thing will happen twice.
Outside, The people started to fill in the seats.
As the time passed, more and more people walked in.
When it was time for the duel.
The crowd has filled the arena.
On the duel platform, The announcer walked in.
He once again greeted the people before saying,”We have 3 warriors right now.
But only 2 of them will fight in the finals.” “One of them will be selected randomly to enter the finals.
While the remaining two of them will fight against each other to determine the 2nd finalist,” He said with a loud tone.
He had reminded them of the rules before.
Before the start of the duel, he has decided to announce it once again.
“Right now, let’s see who will get the free pass,” After saying that he turned towards the big screen.
Hearing that everyone turned towards the big screen.
The next second, the name and picture of Clinton appeared.
Cheers!
Seeing that crowd erupts with a cheer.
Clinton has also gathered quite a number of supporters for himself.
So I am happy.
The announcer then said,”Clinton will enter the finals directly.
The next duel will be between Zack Lockwood and Wanda.” “Their duel is going to start in 5 minutes,” He added.
Inside the challenger’s room, I revealed a smile on my face.
As I guessed, the ice elemental warrior is one of the finalists.
Then I looked towards Wanda before walking towards the exit.
Seeing that Wanda also followed from behind.
Then both of us started approaching the duel platform together.
