Chapter 187: Rinloran’s anxiety
“He actually launched an arcane skill even in such a tense atmosphere. This idiot.”
“Being expelled serves him right! If he tries something so outrageous again, he’ll probably be permanently banned from watching these matches.”
A hubbub of swearing rose in the stands after Stingham was punished to leave the arena.
“That fly… We can finally have some peace.”
Several members of team Golden Stag sneered after the two arcane masters led the crestfallen Stingham away,
In the field, Rinsyi and Sophia both momentarily paused, but the fight between the two of them hadn’t been interrupted.
Stingham swept his cold glance at Stingham as the latter was being expelled from the field. Then he looked back at Sophia and said, cold and detached, “Even like this, as long as I’m here, victory is still an unattainable dream for all of you.”
“Rinsyi, you’re really full of crap… You’re even chattier than a girl, no wonder everyone dislikes you,” Sophia suddenly said with a smile.
Rinsyi’s face froze.
“Radiant Dash!”
Sophia fiercely stamped on the ground and charged his way, her entire person like a brilliant sword.
“You’re courting your own death!”
He put his hand on the Moonlight Blade with an angry shout. The Blade fiercely clashed with the one slender radiant sword left in Sophia’s hands.
But just then, Sophia directly tossed away her sword with a shout of her own and pressed the Moonlight Blade between her palms.
“Swish.”
Rinsyi’s one hand suddenly lost control of the Moonlight Blade. Sophia squeezed it between her palm then tossed it away.
The Moonlight Blade spun and flew outside the field!
His own materialized weapon forcibly seized by the opponent, and a seriously wounded opponent at that. An even greater wrath instantly ignited in Rinsyi’s eyes.
He came to a standstill. The cross-shaped imprint in his eyes enlarged once again.
A tremendous strength suddenly pushed Sophia away from him.
Blue strips of winds appeared around Sophia, swiftly slashing away at her.
“Oh no!”
The two already vigilant assistant referees’ faces suddenly sank when they saw these ribbon-like strips of wind appear around Sophia,
“Whoosh!”
Many silver rays of light suddenly struck the front of the blue ribbons of wind.
At the same time, a deep-red curtain of light fell from the sky and returned the primordial energy around the arena back to its original chaos.
The ribbon-like strips of wind immediately started crumbling.
But in a simple instant, many deep wounds had already appeared on Sophia like the slashes of saw blades.
In particular, two slashes on her arms were deep enough to bare her bones.
“The match is over!”
His face unsightly as well, Kleis ended the match with a shout.
“Such destructive power… Was Rinsyi directly trying to kill Sophia?”
“What a fearsome invocation speed. And it’s also an arcane skill that totally conceals the eruption of arcane particles. The two assistant referees were almost too late to stop the power of this skill!”
“He was definitely trying to kill Sophia… In a situation like that, there are many ways to defeat Sophia for good for someone with his strength. But he clearly chose a covert skill, his quickest arcane skill! Just so the assistant referees would be too late to rescue her!”
When a medical team rushed at Sophia, many participants had sensed Rinsyi’s flash of murderous intent.
“House Baratheon’s people are truly all paranoid.” In team Dragon Breath, Captain Morgan couldn’t resist shaking his head. “These guys not only treat the Evil Dragon followers as their enemies, they also treat all the powerful arcane masters of their own kingdom as their enemies as well.”
“Rinsyi… I’m more and more itching to fight with him,” Audrey said with a cold smile.
“You might not be his match right.” Morgan’s words were forthright when he spoke after a small hesitation. “He wouldn’t have revealed all his secrets in a fight of this level. He should have some other arcane skills left, at the same level or maybe stronger than the power of the domain taboo skill he used right now.”
Audrey glanced at Morgan. For once, she actually didn’t refute him.
…
“Four-four!”
“Agate Lake Academy only has Nikita left now.”
Even though the fight between Rinsyi and Sophia was already over, even though all the undulations of arcane power had already dissipated from the stands, almost all the participants in the stands still couldn’t help but feel a shiver in their hearts at the reminiscence of the fighting scene moments ago.
Just like everyone had underestimated Holy Dawn Academy’s fighting prowess at the start, Sophia was also a contestant everyone had underestimated.
Whether the Sacred Angel Armor she’d invoked at the beginning, or the surprise attack hidden in the pillar of light the Radiant Goddess had fired, or the “Light Leap” evasion skill she’d used after Rinsyi discovered her, or “Angel Summoning,” or “Angelic Smite,” or even the Angel Blessing at the very end after she was heavily wounded… Even many celebrity fighters thought they couldn’t be very certain of winning if they ran into her, from the way she used her skills and how proficient she was with them.
However, Rinsyi’s strength was too fearsome this year!
Merely going by that domain-type taboo skill, everyone was certain Rinsyi had opened four arcane gates already, and not only that, it’s certainly been quite a while since he opened his fourth gate. He’d walked a long while on the road from the fourth gate to the fifth gate already!
“Is that the power of the storm dragon bloodline?”
Rinloran’s hands trembled even stronger.
Not because he was afraid.
For some reason he couldn’t explain, he was increasingly worried about the last duel between Nikita and Rinsyi.
