Chapter 142: Why Don’t We Get Serious

Phoenix blinked, a small smile gracing her lips as blood trickled down her neck.

Christopher nodded at her. "You did good," he said.

BAM!

Phoenix fell to the ground, lifeless. Christopher watched as the flaming sword shattered into small flames, which danced away into the air.

***Impressive... I was a bit taken aback by your ruthlessness... You didn’t even blink.***

The fox flashed, reappearing twenty meters away from Christopher.

***I can tell you and her are close, but why did you kill her without hesitation?*** It asked, its golden eyes piercing.

"Emotions? Hesitation? And reasons? All these can be used against someone in the real world... Not in a simulation," Christopher said, his gaze unwavering as he walked towards the fox.

"You are a Sky stage beast..." He clenched his fist, and a sword made from pure life force materialized in his grip, radiating a faint golden light.

"I hope you will fight like one."

WHOOSH!!

Christopher vanished, instantly appearing in front of the fox, his life force sword poised to strike.

***Hehehehe!***

The fox let out a sinister laugh that echoed across the landscape, and lunged towards him, its golden claws extended.

CLANK!!

CLANK!

The sharp sounds of sword meeting golden metal claws reverberated, as Christopher and the Fox engaged in a rapid exchange of blows, a blur of motion and clashing energy.

"Ice arrows!"

WHOOSH!!!

The Fox leaped backward, disengaging from the close-quarters combat and landing nimbly on its feet. It raised its head towards the sky, and thousands of shimmering ice arrows materialized above it, their tips glinting menacingly.

"Drop!!!"

As Christopher shot forward, a silver streak against the white expanse, the thousands of ice arrows rained down from the sky, a deadly barrage.

***You dare!!!!***

The fox unleashed a powerful wave of emerald green life force, which expanded outwards, colliding with the descending arrows and shattering them into countless icy fragments. With a deafening sonic boom, it propelled itself towards Christopher.

***Die Human!!!***

Christopher’s hazel eyes flashed with a sudden golden light. Before the Fox could reach him, he disappeared, reappearing instantly behind the leaping beast.

***...What?!***

The fox’s eyes widened in astonishment, its momentum carrying it forward into empty air.

"I don’t think so!"

Christopher swung his life force sword, releasing a blade of pure energy that shot towards the fox. Reacting with lightning speed, the fox spun around, crossing its armored arms in a defensive posture.

BOOOOOM!!!!

BOOOOOOM!!!

Christopher’s energy blade struck, followed immediately by the shattered remnants of the ice arrows, exploding in unison, creating a chaotic burst of energy and ice shards.

WHOOSH!

BAM!

The Fox landed on the icy floor, its feet digging into the slick surface. It raised its arms, its gaze fixed on the faint burn mark etched onto its golden armor. Then, its attention shifted to Christopher, who stood calmly amidst the dissipating energy.

***Impressive Human... Didn’t know you could teleport that fast.***

It smirked, a hint of excitement in its golden eyes.

***As it has turned to this... Let’s have a good fight!!!!***

BOOOOOM!!!

Another, even more powerful wave of golden energy erupted from the fox, shooting upwards and instantly shattering the ice beneath its feet, creating a gaping hole in the ground.

’Be careful... That guy is going all out,’ Tiamat cautioned, her voice a low hum in his mind.

’Then, we should also go all out,’ Christopher answered mentally, his focus sharpening.

’That will reveal you are above the master level... Those guys might not feel anything, but that Monica will surely know,’ Tiamat pointed out, a note of concern in her tone.

’Lasting this long already gave them some knowledge about my true strength... If I don’t go all out, I will surely lose!’

BOOOOOM!!!!

A radiant golden life force burst out from Christopher, erupting into the sky like a geyser of pure energy, instantly darkening the sky and causing a swirling storm to form overhead. Before everyone’s eyes, large snowflakes began to fall.

***...?!***

The Fox was dumbfounded, its confident smirk vanishing.

Those watching from the training ground were speechless, their eyes wide with disbelief.

’You are tapping into my main powers, can you wield it?’ Tiamat asked, her voice laced with a hint of worry.

’Yes.’ Christopher replied, his focus absolute.

The Fox watched, its golden eyes narrowed, as half of Christopher’s brown hair turned a striking shade of blue, shimmering like glacial ice. The falling snow swirled around him, merging with his aura, visibly boosting his strength.

***This?! This human is a supreme?! But why is his strength still increasing?!***

The Fox muttered in mild shock, its initial confidence wavering.

***No!! I must see how far he can get!***

The fox pointed a clawed finger at Christopher, a malevolent glint in its eyes.

***Kill him!***

Before Christopher’s eyes, tiny balls of golden light flew out from the fox’s body, rapidly expanding and transforming into perfect clones of the beast. Thirty identical foxes, each radiating a powerful aura, shot towards him like golden meteors.

"Oh? You can make clones? And these guys have the same strength, all divine stages, a realm below you... Wow... If you are in the outside world, you will surely give the tamers a hard time," he muttered, his gaze analytical as he waited for the first clone to approach, its golden claws raised for a strike.

***Why isn’t he dodging?*** The fox thought, a flicker of confusion crossing its features.

BAM!!!!!

The first clone’s powerful punch connected squarely with Christopher’s face, sending him hurtling backward through the air.

BAM!!!

He smashed into the wall above the ornate throne at the far end of the ground, the impact cracking the stone. He slid down the damaged wall, finally coming to rest in a slumped position on the throne, his head lolling forward, his gaze fixed on the ground.

[Training Ground.]

"Brother?! Is he alright?!"

Katherine rushed to the front, stopping anxiously beside Monica and the Dean, her gaze glued to the screen displaying her brother’s seemingly lifeless form.

"He is still breathing, otherwise he would have reappeared here," the Dean said in a calm but firm tone, his eyes never leaving the screen.

"Lasting this long is already a miracle," Monica muttered, her expression unreadable. She turned to Katherine, her sharp gaze assessing. "Is your brother hiding his strength?" she asked directly.

"Huh... I... I don’t know," Katherine stammered, her eyes wide with worry as she stared at her screen, a conflict raging within her.

’I can’t reveal brother’s strength... He has a reason for hiding it,’ she thought fiercely.

Monica studied Katherine’s side profile for a few tense seconds, her gaze piercing, before turning her attention back to the screen, her thoughts hidden.

"It seems even Christopher can’t defeat that Fox," Adrian commented, a hint of smugness in his voice.

"He thought he was something special, he’s just like any one of us," Mariana added with a dismissive smile, her earlier admiration seemingly vanished.

’This is bad,’ Chloe thought, her fists clenched tightly at her sides. ’Is this the strength of a Sky stage beast? Then what about the one heading to the city? How powerful would it be?’ A wave of fear washed over her.

["Hehehe."]

"....?!"

Gasps of surprise and shock rippled through the training ground as everyone turned back to the screen, their eyes widening in disbelief as they saw Christopher slowly raising his head. Surprisingly, there wasn’t even a scratch on his face.

"...This?"

Chloe was utterly stunned, her earlier fear replaced by confusion.

"I thought he was dead?" Adrian muttered in mild surprise, his smugness fading.

"That is my brother," Katherine said, a relieved smile finally gracing her lips, a surge of pride washing over her.

’Hmm... Why is his strength increasing? Don’t tell me he is breaking through,’ the Dean thought in mild horror, his calm facade momentarily cracking.

[Training Map.]

BOOOOOM!!!!

A powerful wave of intense gray life force erupted from Christopher, shattering the remnants of the throne and the pillar beneath his feet into dust and ice shards.

BOOOOOM!!

The raw energy expanded outwards in a devastating shockwave, instantly obliterating all of the fox clones, which dissolved into motes of golden light. The wave continued its destructive path, slamming into the Fox with immense force, sending it skidding backward for five meters across the shattered ice.

***It can’t be... How the hell did I force his breakthrough?!***

The Fox muttered to itself in disbelief, its golden eyes wide with shock.

’You used 80% of my strength and broke through the Supreme level, becoming a Transcendent... I won’t be able to help you for some time, and my powers are also significantly reduced... You will have to look for my second fragment if you need me to give you another infusion of my life force,’ Tiamat’s voice echoed in his mind, sounding weak and tired.

"Thanks," Christopher whispered, a sense of gratitude washing over him.

’Don’t say that? You are my disciple... You are meant to take my powers... Now, defeat that foxhead, and let me sleep,’ she replied, a hint of her usual strength returning to her tone.

Christopher smiled faintly at her words, his gaze hardening as he fixed it on the Fox, which was slowly regaining its footing.

"Why don’t we get serious," he said, his voice low and dangerous.
