Chapter 397 (2/2)

He punched the air and that punch left 5 gashes across the ground.

”Persuade me to use my armament.”

Wu Yan smiled. Jaafar is haughty but he has the strength to back it up. To get him into serious mode, Wu Yan needed to display enough strength that would change his mind. He is already taking him in a more serious manner than other partic.i.p.ants, due to his close a.s.sociation with Astrea, Ikaros, and Mikoto. Wu Yan also fought like a champion in his previous fights. Without all those achievements, Jaafar probably wouldn't bother wasting saliva on him.

Mikoto, Hinagiku, and others could hear them due to the quiet environment. They thought that Jaafar needs to tone down his c.o.c.ky att.i.tude. The crowd didn't think so, he had the right to be c.o.c.ky, if he is a c.o.c.ky student with no real strength, the crowd would have drowned him in spit a long time ago.

The crowd are all busy whispering to each other, speculating about who might be the winner of this fight. Lei w.a.n.g waved his hand and the noise slowly died.

He observed the two fighters' condition and he smiled. He is looking forward to this fight, Jaafar had the highest chance of winning here. Wu Yan, on the other hand, is a wild card, even the other old monsters are surprised by his lack of background.

He had also seen how Wu Yan isn't intimidated at all. Lei w.a.n.g is sure that this man is going to give him a big surprise during the fight.

”Little fellow, I have high hopes for you…”

Lei w.a.n.g raised an arm.

”I now declare the 3rd stage of the tournament officially underway. Let the first round begin!”

Lei w.a.n.g's declaration was followed by Jaafar emanating his dou qi. The amount is so intense the crowd could feel it even if they are some distance away from the arena.

Blood red dou qi started pouring out of Jaafar. His hand also increased in size, Wu Yan can hear joint popping sounds.

An image of a beast appeared behind Jaafar.

Wu Yan tightened his hold on Nietono no Shana, fire came out of Nietono no Shana, his flames somewhat diminished the domineering aura of his beast projection.

There are no signs of dou qi coming out of Wu Yan. However, another type of aura emanated from Wu Yan.

It's a mystical kind of pressure that is on par with Jaafar.

Wu Yan released a long breath. He shook his arm and Nietono no Shana responded by emitting even more flames, he baked the ground until the surrounding air had signs of convection. His eyes had turned golden, a regale golden color that inspired a primal fear in any observer.

Sparks flew off his body before he turned into a blurry figure that headed straight for Jaafar who is stationary. Wu Yan initiated the fight by electromagnetically accelerating himself towards Jaafar.

He closed the distance in less than a blink of an eye. Everyone knew the start of an intense fight when they saw one.
