Chapter 1130: Bethany wins!

From MC’s Perspective:

My perception was active. I was observing her movements as she continued to circle around me.

She had found the same tactics as Senior Riley. But I wasn’t going to give up. It was challenging for me as well.

Boom!

Bethany drew her flame fist at Zack Lockwood’s back. But her attack was seen through by me. I turned around to block her fist at the right time.

Her flames instantly covered my right palm.

Zzzzz!

The next second, the black flames began to burn my skin. If I wanted, I could use purple lightning to destroy the black flames.

But by doing that, I would concede the duel as well. I didn’t want to do that. I wasn’t going to make things easy for them.

I let the black flames burn my skin. At the right opportunity, I retreated backward to the edge of the platform.

Bethany was stunned. She was speechless. She was sure that her attack could force Zack Lockwood to use his purple lightning.

But he was enduring her black flames. Her expression grew serious. She knew Zack Lockwood didn’t make things difficult for Riley. He was doing it against her.

“Why?” she thought.

Not only her; the warriors around the platform, the faction leader, and the main elders thought the same as well. Everyone thought Zack Lockwood was taking the duel seriously.

If this duel continued, then he might receive multiple burn injuries on his body.

On the balcony, the main elders’ faces were serious. Even Austin didn’t expect this from his disciple. On the other hand, Ann understood the competitive nature of Zack Lockwood.

In her opinion, Zack Lockwood didn’t want to give up that easily. But still, she worried about the burn marks, which were unnecessary right now.

“Bethany has won the duel!”

Faction Leader Clifford said to everyone. Hearing that, the main elders behind him were stunned.

Not only them but also the two warriors inside the platform and the warriors surrounding the platform as well.

Inside the platform, Bethany widened her eyes in disbelief.

She had been worried about her chances seconds ago.

But she hadn’t expected the faction leader to see through her difficulty because Zack Lockwood was purposely making things difficult for her.

For her, this was just a qualification match. There was no need to get serious.

“Zack Lockwood, there is no need to get injured. This is just a qualification match. Don’t take it seriously,” Faction Leader Clifford said.

Hearing that, Bethany felt she was right.

On the other hand, my mouth twitched. I wanted to enjoy the duel, but he stopped it. Then I turned around and nodded to him.

“Good, Bethany, you can go down. Who is willing to come next?” Faction Leader Clifford said.

Hearing that, Bethany exited the platform. She joined the list of Riley. They were going to participate in the main event tomorrow.

Swoosh!

A slender-looking warrior entered the platform. His name was Craig from the Ice and Fire Palace.

Upon seeing him, Main Elder Cathy reacted.

She said, “He is another senior student like the previous two. His ice element is very strong. I don’t know whether Zack can withstand the power of ice.”

Gasp!

A low exclamation occurred below. All the senior students knew about Craig. He was middle-aged, but his physique was lean.

People might think he was a weak warrior, but his ice element could turn people into ice cubes.

So those who knew him had already predicted the result.

“Interesting,” Riley, standing at the corner, commented.

Bethany, who was taking a rest, was speechless as well. She felt pity thinking about Zack Lockwood.

He had been attacked by golden lightning, black flames, and now this.

She was looking forward to seeing whether Zack Lockwood could take the attack head-on, like he had done to her.

Inside the platform, I was still feeling the pain from the burn marks. Now another guy had appeared. From the conversation around him, I learned that he was from the Ice and Fire Palace.

I doubted he could follow the same trick with his ice element. I sighed inwardly thinking about it because I hadn’t heard of any movement-type ice element technique.

I collected my thoughts and started observing the person in front of me. He was a middle-aged man with a lean physique. His skin tone was fair.

From the people’s conversation around me, he seemed to be another senior student who had suppressed his rank to gain powerful inheritance.

On the other hand, Craig was observing the opponent as well. He had watched the previous two duels. His elemental technique was ice.

Unlike the lightning and fire elements, he could freeze the opponent. He had decided to target Zack Lockwood’s weak point, which was the head.

On the balcony, the faction leader, Clifford, revealed a smile on his face. He was satisfied with Craig’s temperament.

He thought he would fight against Zack Lockwood right away.

Instead, he was taking time to think about a plan.

“Craig, he is a good warrior. What do you think, guys?” Faction Leader Clifford asked.

“Anyway, my disciple would be forced to use his purple lightning. Even if he doesn’t, faction leader, you would announce the result,” Austin said with a smile.

“Zack can use his full strength against other faction warriors. There is no need for a fight between us,” Cathy said from the side.

“She is right. Tomorrow’s duel is important,” Clifford said.

Other main elders agreed as well.

Inside the platform, Craig had decided to attack.

Swoosh!

He took the initiative to rush toward Zack Lockwood. He didn’t use the ice element at all.

Gasp!

The warriors outside exclaimed in a low tone. They thought Senior Craig would use the ice element, but he was going to attack with brute force.

Inside the platform, I raised my eyebrows in surprise. I thought this guy was planning to use his ice element in a tricky way, so I should be careful of him.

Then I used my perception once again. His movements had become crystal clear in my eyes.

Senior Craig appeared before me. Without any hesitation, he raised his fist to attack me. Seeing that, I didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

No one competes against me when it comes to brute force.

Boom!

I simply blocked the fist, neutralizing the force. I looked at Senior Craig with a smile on my face.

But then he smiled in response. I immediately knew something was wrong.

Zzzzzz!

In the blink of an eye, both of our locked fists were covered in an ice block. Seeing my expression change drastically, I immediately used my left hand to strike the ice block.

Boom!

My left fist completely shattered the ice block. When my right hand became free, I retreated backward toward the edge of the platform.

Swoosh!

Craig was smiling before moving back to his previous position. He wanted to test Zack Lockwood’s brute strength.

Now he could confirm that Zack Lockwood could destroy his ice blocks with brute force alone. If he wanted to win this duel, then he could only come up with a plan like the other two.

Gasp!

The warriors around the platform exclaimed in surprise.

The warriors from Ice and Fire had smiles on their faces. They didn’t expect their senior to use such a trick.

If the ice element was powerful, then Zack Lockwood would have been forced to use his purple lightning.

Even the higher-ups in the balcony had smiles on their faces.

Unlike Riley and Bethany, they thought Craig was using his brain more than the others.

Swoosh!

Craig was moving again from his spot. He was darting toward Zack Lockwood.

This time he planned to do a sneak attack. Only a surprise element could force Zack to use his purple lightning.

On the other hand, I didn’t know what to do. Should I deal with it casually? If I wanted to, I could use brute force to defeat him easily.

But Senior Craig seemed to be a powerful warrior like the others. He deserves a place in tomorrow’s match up. I don’t want to spoil his chance.

So I decided to go along. If he is powerful, then I will use the purple lightning against him.

Swoosh!

In the blink of an eye, he appeared before me once again. I thought he would use his fist to attack me.

But he has completely different plan in his mind. Before I could do something. He used his technique right away.

Zzzzz!

The powerful ice element covers the place in the blink of an eye. The freezing ice covers my whole body, before I could do something.

Boom!

I used the fist to break to break the freezing ice. But it’s taking time. If I could use the purple lightning then the whole ice elments will be destroyed.

On the other hand, Craig is carrying smile on his face. He continues to use his ice element to cover the platform.
