Kirst’s City Lord was also astonished by this attack. He then looked at Hoult’s Crimson Fire with great envy.
“So this is a top-grade level 29 Superior Divine Weapon… It’s really powerful, too powerful. Considering this longsword together with that attack which accumulates energy, just in terms of the damaging prowess alone, Hoult is undoubtedly the best among all the examinees.”
Most Knights in the training grounds who had seen this had all stepped back at least fifty meters away from the metal pillar, unable to take the high temperature.
Rota exhaled slowly, “He is strong, really strong. The prowess of this attack has probably exceeded the limits of a first transition Knight. This is not an attack that someone at Knight level can perform.”
Hamil also lamented, “Seems like Hoult will have the top position in the first stage. As expected of the third generation disciple of a Divine level expert. So this is the difference between us and someone from a powerful background.”
Anderson’s face turned green, as if he had not expected Hoult to perform such a powerful attack. This attack was neither fast nor ingenious, and the practitioner even had to store up power to successfully unleash it.
It was an attack which pursued only damage prowess. In this area, there was nothing more others could say about it.
From there onward, other students taking their turns as the competition continued, including Rota, Hamil, and Manny. However, no one else could reach the level Hoult and Anderson had.
When it came to David’s turn, he went up wearing a pair of golden-colored gloves. When he clenched his fist, streams of electricity started to encircle his fists.
Governor Devitt’s brows twitched slightly, ‘Thundergod Gloves?’
This set of gloves was clearly one with a bit of a reputation for itself, as it was the heirloom of Mongul City’s City Lord. To think that this time around he had given them to David to use them in the Regional Selection!
This pair of gloves was a level 25 Superior Divine Weapon, and it encompassed one’s fists with layers of electricity which could both numb and scorch one’s enemies with the high temperatures. In a short instant it could release temperatures even as high as ten thousand degrees.
It was a pity that the temperature could not be sustained for long. Although the short outbursts of temperature were high, their damaging prowess was far from a match for the Crimson Fire longsword.
Many of the spectators had also recognized this equipment and had started mumbling between themselves.
David was wearing a proud smile as he took his stance to perform One Man Army. Controlling the air pressure and using the Thundergod Gloves, he wanted to create a high-temperature lightning attack to melt the metal pillar.
However, just before he punched out, a commotion broke out.
“Why is he not wearing his underwear?” Ferdinand shouted. “It isn’t yellow today?”
Many people broke out in laughter. David tensed up for a moment and could not help but reach with one hand for his belt, while the other fist missed its aim. In that moment, the thunder punch’s attack was greatly reduced, and it only made a five-inch dent on the metal pillar’s surface.
Devitt shook his head, “You’re unable to calm down, 11 points.”
The other examiners were also a bit disappointed by David’s performance, and eventually gave him 10.5 points.
