Chapter 96: Fooled again and again (2/2)

This was a tall and robust muscleman close to two meters tall just like team Southern Monsoon’s captain Ferdinand, and his training also seemed to have made the muscles of his face into one block after another. He still wore some black and blue bruises caused by taking beatings during training. He truly appeared fierce-looking.

Though his first teammate Justin already suffered heavy injuries and couldn’t continue the match, Bora’s performance and the atmosphere Ayrin stirred up still truly made Silva start to like and enjoy this match from the bottom of his heart.

“Whether I win or lose, I absolutely can’t leave any regret behind,” this fierce-looking burly fellow also silently told himself.

“Bring it on, tall brave warrior!” Ayrin shouted, his blood surging, “Since you called me a reckless kid, then let us be reckless together and compare the strength of our punches, what do you say!”

“Hm?” Silva clenched his fists out of habit. He paused slightly in surprise, but Ayrin was already rushing like a madman in his direction.

“Alright, bring it then!”

Silva abruptly twisted his body around, released his strength and fired out a punch.

But just at this instant, Ayrin who appeared to have already swung his fist actually kicked out fiercely all of a sudden, kicked toward his belly.

“Bang!”

Although he moved his left arm in front of himself as a shield and protected himself in the nick of time, it still hit his own belly with a muffled sound under the strength of Ayrin’s kick.

“I…”

“You clearly said punches, but you actually kicked. What a powerful strength!”

Silva felt as if seas and rivers were overturning inside his belly. He almost puked on the spot.

At the same time, he heard Ayrin’s shout.

“Move like the wind and strike like thunder, directly decide the fight! Crown of Ice and Snow!”

“What!”

Even his body hair stood erect this time from his sudden shock.

Crown of Ice and Snow was an “explosive skill” of resounding fame among all the arcane skills in Holy Dawn Academy. The scene of Ivan being blasted out still played in front of his eyes. And now, after Ayrin successfully hit him with a surprise attack, he clearly was in Crown of Ice and Snow’s attacking range. If he were to be blasted by it, he would certainly be directly eliminated from the match just like Ivan.

“Swish!”

His arcane particles squeezed out at a speed that exceeded his limits, spraying out from his hands and his soles.

A wild gust of wind instantly flung him up more than a dozen meters in the air.

At the same time, two overlapping fire shields more than half a meter tall appeared in front of his hands.

The inner part of these fire shields were made from a hard ruby-like substance, while fierce flames burned on the surface.

“What?!”

But when, more than a dozen meters in the air, he looked down at Ayrin on the ground, this team member fighting second for Iron Shield Academy stared with wide eyes and shouted out loud in disbelief.

On the ground, Ayrin didn’t give off the slightest indication of using Crown of Ice and Snow. Instead, he showed a cautious defensive posture.

Ayrin watched the two fire shields stand erect in front of him, and heard his incredulous shout. Only then did he chuckle in Silva’s direction. “Hehe, you fell for it again.”

“I heard Chris say that after you launch a materialization skill like that, you can’t recover your arcane particles anymore because they already merged with arcane energy and transformed into something else. You must definitely have consumed many arcane particles to summon these two fire shields, right?”

“…”

In the stands, many Iron Forest people had difficulty swallowing their saliva. They couldn’t even talk.

“He’s really too sinister.” Looking at Silva in the air, Stingham felt that Silva certainly had the urge to spit out blood at this moment.

Indeed, just as Ayrin said, any materialization skill cost the consumption a great amount of arcane particles. Even solidifying two swords or an armor sticking on his body would at least have been useful to confront the enemy with. Condensing two thick shields like these now, they were inconvenient even if he kept them in front of him and protected himself with them… It wasn’t as if he could lift them in his hands and swing them as weapons, right?

Landing down on the ground, Silva really had the impulse to hold the shields and swing them at Ayrin.

Only, he knew full well that with great heavy shield like these, they were too heavy to swing even if he tried to.

“What are you doing?”

Just at this moment, he suddenly saw Ayrin retreat at full speed, all the way to the edge of the field.

Ayrin watched him vigilantly, saying in a very natural tone, “I’m waiting for your two fire shields to disappear before attacking, of course. Or else you think I’m silly? Your defense is so good with these two fire shields, I’ll definitely suffer if I rushed forward.”

“…” Silva suddenly had the feeling these two fire shields in front of him were totally useless trashes.

“Haha, it’s too funny. Ayrin’s too interesting!”

“That’s perfect, Silva definitely won’t be able to chase after Ayrin if he carries these two shields.”

“Even if he really caught up to him and swung these two fire shields after him, I’m dead from laughter just thinking about it.”

“What can he do, he can only ditch them first, but these two fire shields may well have cost him at least half his arcane particles, that’s really too dumb.”

In the stands occupied by Agate Lake Academy, countless girls suddenly couldn’t hold back their giggles.
