Chapter 555: Second Round Starts (1/2)

After the first round was over, there was no wait for the second. Norzulun warned everyone that there would be no rest.

Iem was the first to fight against Sara. As the others expected, Sara gave up straight away as well. She knew that there was no chance of beating this Heavenly Race member.

The Second battle of the second round was Sule and Hanan. Sule had a fierce fight against Waka, only giving up after many injuries and energy consumption. In Hanan's case, however, he only battled Laka for a few seconds before giving up. Not to mention that he didn't take that seriously at all.

Hanan, of course, won the fight without any issues. Sule was far from being ready for a fight. Once Hanan showed his real strength, he knew that he would only make his condition even worse. Since that was the case, Sule decided to give up this fight as well and bet on the next five ones. Also, he would be the last one to fight in the next round, so he would have time to recover.

The last phase was also a strategy game. You needed to play your cards right to not fall into a trap. Sule played it wrong, thinking that he could beat Waka, which turned out bad for his side.

Hanan left the stage with a smile on his face. Baren Frunkan, who was observing from outside, also nodded in satisfaction. In his eyes, Hanan made the correct decision to give up battling against Laka. Now, Hanan only needed two more victories. Iem is out of the question, while Krune would be complicated. However, the other participants didn't seem to be a problem. Not to mention that his Frunkan Clan Forbidden Technique was still available to be used.

Krune knew that it was his time, so he went to the arena. Right after, Waka appeared there in a flash. Even though Waka had gone through a tough fight against Sule in the last round, it didn't seem like he would give up. This was good for Krune, though. He really wanted to understand Waka's last attack against Sule, and this was the best opportunity. He felt like he was close to finding something, but not quite there yet.

The judge looked at both sides before saying.

”Begin!”

Waka's body flashed as he went straight to Krune.

”Sword Heart Domain!”

Waka's Domain had no color, just like Feifei's one. However, it wasn't invisible either. It looked like the area several kilometers around Waka became filled with Swords. Every single Sword was an exact copy of Waka's one. Krune could tell that the Sword that Waka was using at the moment had some deeper meaning for him, too, probably.

This was also the first time that Krune felt Sword Laws. In a certain way, they were a variation of Earth Laws, which were connected to all metals in existence.

Before Waka even arrived, his Sword Domain plunged against him as if they wanted to split the world.

”Tribulation Lightning Movement!”

Arcs of Purple Lightning came out of Krune's Wisp Core as his body flashed with a Purple Light. However, Waka's Domain was full of swords everywhere. So unless Krune completely left its range, he would still be attacked by all sides.

”Tribulation Lightning Domain!”

Immediately, the world around Krune became purple, and currents of purple lightning appeared everywhere. The center of the Domain was obviously the place where most of the lightning currents ran around.

Sure enough, the Swords that seemed to be real partially lost the support of Waka's Sword Laws. Because of that, they seemed to become transparent to a certain extent. Yet, Krune could tell that Waka's Domain was the one who suffered the least when clashing with his Purple Tribulation Lightning Domain.

'It probably has something to do with his Sword Heart that surpasses Sword Intent.'

Krune was right. Waka's Sword laws really had a lot of support from his comprehension of the Sword. The Sword Heart is not a law, so Krune's Purple Tribulation Lightning couldn't affect it.

Waka was really fast, almost on par with Tirande. That being said, he wasn't too much slower than Krune with his Purple Tribulation Lightning. With his Sword Domain, which Krune had to be careful, he could make up for the disparity of speed.

However, Krune had his Purple Flame Diamond Shields. Also, it was not like Krune wasn't attacking either.

”Tribulation Tornado!”

”Gravity Field!”

”Mountain Fall!”

”Tribulation Blazing Wind Blades!”

Waka wasn't idle either.

”Myriad Slashes!”

”Single Stance!”

”Thundering Sword!”
