Void Shadow God’s energy shield opened. At the same time, the Inferno Ability X exploded fiercely, fusing with the energy shield. This shocked a bunch of Huang Grade students who were also of the energy type Ability X, for whom the possibility of using energy shield fusion only existed in their minds. But the level of control was too difficult. At most, they could summon it for a while, and now Hocatolin was planning to use it openly. This was one of the necessary conditions for entering the Earth Grade.
Using Ability X to control the mecha’s energy shield, and switch between attack and defense quickly. It was all under the pilot’s control.
Hocatolin, as one of the Aslan representatives in the Xuan Grade, had had a smooth-sailing journey so far. He had been labeled a genius from Aslan till Elite College. In any face-off, he had always crushed his opponent, and Wang Zheng was by far the hardest to get a hold of. Most crucially, he had to win, and to win in style befitting his status.
At that moment, Void Shadow God had already evolved into a flaming specter. Such Ability X infused energy shield looked both cool and flashy. Under such circumstances, the problem of energy shields affecting movement was completely non-existent. Attack and defense were as one.
From this move, Hocatolin’s understanding was indeed in the lead. At least, Black Tortoise’s elite had not reached this level.
Besides, this Inferno ability was like giving a tiger wings. Wang Zheng’s Storm Swordsman had sobered up as well. At this moment, Void Shadow God definitely held the high ground.
His sword flashing out, the beam saber trailed flames as it closed the distance speedily on the Storm Swordsman. Wang Zheng strafed to avoid it, the Storm Swordsman not retreating. The beam saber immediately cut through.
BOOM…
A misread on the first step normally let to a collision. Storm Swordsman was sent flying, and from the way its core looked, Wang Zheng had miscalculated.
Pampas shook his head slightly. “The power of this blow had been raised by a few multiples. It includes the energy from the energy shield as well. He must be underestimating his opponent.” He favored Wang Zheng, but Hocatolin was an elite of the Xuan Grade. Wang Zheng was treating him too lightly.
Storm Swordsman was sprawled on the floor, but immediately rebounded up skewed. He forced out another attack. It looked like Wang Zheng’s body condition was indeed abnormal.
The beam saber was blazing with fire as well, but this level of fire was like a candle compared to the blazing bonfire of the Void Shadow God.
In 3 consecutive clashes, Wang Zheng had been sent flying each time. And Void Shadow God was using pure energy now. Whether in attack or defense, it left one gasping at its perfection.
This was the highest realm of complete domination. The fire that shrouded Void Shadow God was a brilliant red, full of life. The Lie Flame Technique users, Lie Xin and Lie Guang, were sighing in envy. Although they used a similar Fire Ability X, their technique paled in comparison to Hocatolin’s. Paired with the coolness of a mecha, Hocatolin was indeed the model example of the Aslan specialty.
Noble, majestic, undefeatable!
BOOM…
As though a phoenix rising, Storm Swordsman was beaten aside by a blow. It was reaching an unreasonable stage now.
BOOM… Clatter clatter…
The mecha landed heavily on the floor, and the surface cracked, testament to the force of the blow. The heavily battered Storm Swordsman was as pitiful as a beggar. The mecha had sustained damage in many places, and charred in many more. These wounds bore traces of Ability X seepage. This was no longer a competition. If this continued, Wang Zheng’s life was in danger.
The crowd let out a cheer. Utilizing the power of the blaze, Void Shadow God actually floated in the air. Caged in an inferno of power, Void Shadow God looked like a god of fire descending. It was invincible and invulnerable. Besides, it still held 2 charges of translocation. It was a sight that struck despair into the hearts of opponents.
Hocatolin felt a tinge of sympathy for Wang Zheng as well. He had gone overboard and shown too much. To be so serious with a junior, he had been too much.
The distance between them… no matter how Wang Zheng attacked he could never break this. As long as he got serious, Wang Zheng was dead without question.
Glancing at the princess on the stage, Hocatolin breathed out gently. This should be as far as was needed.
Hocatolin was waiting for Wang Zheng to surrender of his own accord, an act of mercy on his part. He would not kill such a promising junior just to teach a lesson. Aslan people were proud to their bones, but at the same time unafraid of a challenge. If Wang Zheng could really reach his Grade one day, he would accept any form of challenge from Wang Zheng.
The cheers had begun to come from the crowd. It looked like the competition was over, and some had already stood to deliver applause. Wang Zheng was out of tricks now. It was clear that Hocatolin had been merciful.
Wang Zheng’s Storm Swordsman gently centered itself, its beam saber pointing towards Hocatolin.
Hocatolin was taken aback. Wang Zheng was not giving up?
Zhang Shan clenched his fist. He was beginning to worry as well. He did not think that Wang Zheng had no chance, but the Storm Swordsman was almost at its limit. Spectators saw the clearest. The mecha damage was significant. Wang Zheng not activating his energy shield had been a problem. But if he activated them, he would not be able to touch Void Shadow God at all. This was a dilemma.
“Angela, can Wang Zheng win?” Lin Huiyin asked. Angela almost bit her tongue.
“Highness, Wang Zheng’s ability is still a long way away from Hocatolin’s. His best option now is to admit defeat, or there will be a risk to his life.” Angela persuaded patiently. She wanted to get the princess to realize the truth. In her little girl mind, Huiyin must think that Wang Zheng was undefeatable, as though he had some godlike quality. But that was not reality.
“Is that right? Why do I feel like Wang Zheng can win?” Lin Huiyin said unconcernedly.
Angela was crying inside. Did her words count for nothing now?
Angela was frustrated as well. When had Lin Huiyin begun to worship Wang Zheng…
Facing Wang Zheng’s challenge, Hocatolin’s beam saber gestured towards Wang Zheng. “Since you will not surrender, then take responsibility for your own life.”
Wang Zheng smiled slightly. In the cockpit, Wang Zheng was completely ecstatic. “Senior Hocatolin, watch yourself!”
Hocatolin had won Wang Zheng’s respect with his ability. Someone who had grasped Ability X to this extent was indeed strong. Wang Zheng loved such opponents. He could gamble now.
The crowd stared on intently. Was Wang Zheng putting his life on the line?
Lear smiled coldly. This was the psychology of a gambling loser. He thought life was worthless, and therefore refused to surrender. But good luck would not always follow, Wang Zheng!
BOOM…
With a deafening explosion, Storm Swordsman suddenly disappeared…
It was indeed warp. Inside the Storm Swordsman mecha, the super gravity energy ore had been stimulated by Ability X. The body of the mecha was covered with a hurricane, and it closed with speed.
But Hocatolin’s reaction was equally swift. The beam saber was already prepared, although he did not know what to expect from the opponent.
They were still 4 meters apart, when Wang Zheng’s beam saber suddenly flashed out.
A hurricane swept towards Void Shadow God… Wind Ability X?
What use was that?
Hocatolin completely did not treat it seriously, but suddenly realized what was happening. The Storm Swordsman was within the hurricane.
Raging Tornado Attack!
BOOM BOOM…
Using the cyclone as the track, the Storm Swordsman swept the Void Shadow God up within it. The beam saber battered Void Shadow God with a series of frenzied cuts, the light flashing everywhere. The initially weak hurricane had suddenly turned into a fire tornado, which not only used Wang Zheng’s ability, but also absorbed Hocatolin’s strength.
Jiang Feng and the rest had stood up. To think that Wang Zheng would have such a fatal hand left.
Hocatolin’s Void Shadow God was completely helpless. The high speed hurricane combined with the Storm Swordsman’s revolutions, and the super-gravity energy ore had elevated Storm Swordsman beyond its limit. Given Wang Zheng’s physical skills, 48 different attacks flew out in an instant.
Although his defenses had not been penetrated yet, but Hocatolin was being shaken until he was almost spitting blood. Was he trying to take him down together?
But it was useless!
The inferno exploded, and Void Shadow God vanished. The 2nd usage of the warping ability.
But something miraculous happened. In the instant that Void Shadow God disappeared, it was actually beaten back into its original position by a beam saber attack.
Warp disrupted???
At that moment, Wang Zheng’s eyes had turned golden. Analysis!
No illusion could escape from him!
The furious attack rate had already left Hocatolin defenseless, and his own eyes turned red as well.
RUMBLE…
BOOM…
The fire energy shield surrounding Hocatolin contracted, and then exploded!!!
A peerless attack that completely defied logic!
Hocatolin was sweating profusely now. This must have finished it!
This blow contained all his Ability X and the shield energy from the Void Shadow God. It must have blown his opponent away.
After Void Shadow God landed, he heard a strong sound coming from nearby.
At the other side, Storm Swordsman had landed as well. In an instant, all the energy shields activated, but shattered after merely seconds. But Wang Zheng had used the gusts to avoid a fatal explosion.
Both mechas had now completely lost shield support.
Only, Hocatolin’s mecha was in pristine condition, and the pilot was probably the same. Wang Zheng’s Storm Swordsman was battered, and Wang Zheng himself had sustained injuries as well.
Hocatolin had not expected Wang Zheng to be able to fight for so long. As a Huang Grade student, he had acquitted himself well.
In that instant, Hocatolin felt a shred of respect grow. A pity that victory was still his.
BOOM…
The inferno blazed to life again. Hocatolin’s Ability X had not suffered too much. As the cream of the Xuan Grade crop, his usage of both physical strength and energy was sublime. Although the battle had seemingly dragged on for a long time, but he had always used his opponent’s strength to fight himself. This was why he could be called Vermillion Bird King, and one of the top 4 of the Xuan Grade.
“Victory is decided.”
“A pity.”
“Ice, Fire, Wind. 3 abilities, and even combination abilities. As a Huang Grade, Wang Zheng sure is something else.”
“Too bad he met Hocatolin. Too canny and experienced a fighter.”
Luo Fei’s face was red. He could finally heave a sigh of relief. That had been a real scare. F*ck, he had thought Hocatolin was done for. If he lost here he would be sleeping on the streets… No, he would be beaten to death.
Inside the Storm Swordsman, Wang Zheng’s smile was brilliant, his gaze sharp. From young, he had dreamed of such a scenario. Nothing was important, and there was no reason to things. He loved it.
Shing…
