Chapter 83 - Thunder Hawk Tasier (1/2)

The referee confirmed that both of them were ready and the battle started, Pesque was very confident in himself, so he didn't charge at Ao straight away, he focused on his Earth and Fire element to create some kind of lava chains, it was quite ingenious, he used his spiritual energy to keep the connection between the segments, it was also the spiritual energy and his Divine Sense that controlled them, impressively, he could control several of them like tentacles, some were used for defense while others for attack, only after he finished setting them up did he started to slowly walk in Ao's direction.

”You can give up now, you know? There is no need to get hurt for a hopeless battle.”

But he then noticed that Ao didn't seem the least bit impressed with that skill, which ruined his mood quite a bit, it didn't seem like Ao was going to give up anytime soon, in fact, Ao wasn't even paying attention to him.

”Since that's the case, don't blame me for not being polite.”

This time, he charged forward without care, he didn't believe Ao would be able to do anything to him after all, suddenly, Ao's face turned serious.

”He! You finally noticed the danger, too late though.”

On the other side, Ao was having an extremely important Divine Sense conversation with Yusa and Krune, this conversation had started after they finished their lunch.

”It's like I said, you should put a little more salt in my meat, I like it saltier.”

Krune shook his head.

”That would ruin the seasoning that I made, you can't do that with my food.”

Yusa then intervened.

”That's the part where you are wrong, it might taste worse for you, but for Ao, it might, in fact, taste better, you need to understand that not everyone has the same tastes.”

Ao, who was dodging the attack as if they didn't exist, continued his argument with Krune, Krune was very stubborn about the food he prepared.

Finally, Krune let it go, he will make the next meals the same as always, it's just that he won't care anymore if Ao put anything else on it after it's done, but on the condition that he wouldn't waste anything if it turned out to not be good.

After over ten minutes of 'battle', Ao finally got a happy face, he then turned to Pesque who was panting and sweating all over.

”Oh right, I was supposed to battle you, sorry for the delay, I will finish it in a second.”

Pesque thought that Ao was making fun of the fact that he couldn't catch him with his attacks, just as he was about to retort and say that Ao couldn't do anything to him either, Ao raised his swords and made a slashing movement, right at that moment, someone appeared in front of Pesque.

Pesque was alarmed because he didn't know from where these guys came from, only after he jumped back in a fright did he take a good look at who it was, turns out that it none other than the referee, which puzzled Pesque greatly, why did the Divine Soul Referee appear out of nowhere in front of him? But what really made his head spin was the referee's next words.

”Ao Sulian wins.”

Pesque thought that it was some kind of joke.

”He won? What you talking about, he didn't make anything at all, why did I lose?”

The referee just gave him a side glance and commented.

”Ask that again after you take a look at your lava chains.”

Only then did Pesque stop to pay attention to his surroundings, his lava chains… disappeared, or to be more exact, they were all over the ground, hundreds of small puddles of lava could be seen around Pesque.

He was taken aback when did his lava chains become like that?

The answer was in the slash that Ao made a moment ago, it was a fusion of the Metal Element Sharpness and the Wind Element Swiftness, even the seeded mercenaries got quite impressed with that attack, it was really fast and deadly, but that was all that they thought, with exception for Arlan and a few of the Divine Soul cultivators.

'Was that sword intent?'
