Chapter 107 - Challenge Begins! (2/2)

Will did this intentionally to try and bring everyone into their highest battle efficient state, he was confident he could defeat everyone but Ibrahim aside, Will was confident of one-shoting the others since they were all coming down to his level. If they had their normal levels back Will know he had no chance of beating Alexa, Taiga or Ibrahim but the others he might have had a chance.

Now that they were all being brought down to his level, Will was very confident. Of course the strongest of them all Alexa was not taking part, only the others were, as she was a ghost. The others were former supreme candidates so they had their pride. Not only that also their ranking was at stake.

Will released Duke from his bubble and explained the situation to Letty, who nodded in understanding. Letty and Duke quickly exchanged greetings while Will did some unneeded stretches, just to further aggravate his foes.

There weren't many formalities involved. Will just shooed Letty and Duke away while signaling Duke with his eyes. Duke understood the signal and started recording while swallowing his saliva. The reason was simple. His gaze fell to Alexa and co. If he didn't know who they were then he had been and information broker in vain.

Will had given him a rough idea of what was happening but to Duke, only one piece of information mattered. 'Life and Death Battle!'

He knew how powerful these people were, and that they were being dropped to Will's level, yet Will was very confident in defeating them all under these circumstances. There was no doubt that this battle would be epic. Will had given Duke permission to shoot the fight, which Duke was still a bit apprehensive about but he still complied.

Alexa naturally noticed the camera in Duke's hand and made it a point to destroy it after they had taught Will a lesson. But first things first.

Will calmly drew his sword and pointed it at everyone ”Let's begin guys”. Alexa shook her head and waved her pen, a wave of energy lashed out from the pen, penetrating the environment. After that wave was gone, Will noticed that levels of people in from of him had been affected drastically.

They had all been lowered to his level, level 74. Will didn't make a move and allowed his opponents to get used to their new bodies because all of them were used to being at a higher level. Think of it this way, this was similar to a man who is always used to walking normally having one of his legs crippled, so it would take time for him to adjust to moving on one leg.

This was something similar, the lot of them had their physical abilities and mental abilities changed and affected by this level down, nevertheless, they still had certain skills and the experience that gave them an advantage over someone of their level.

Unfortunately, they weren't dealing with a normal person on their level, they were dealing with Earth's first Sovereign. The Infamous Peerless Dao Master.

The first person interested in attacking, without surprise, was undoubtedly Merlin. Merlin was the most powerful mage in the bunch. She was also a person who was skilled and could back up her arrogance. Will was a water user, everyone knew that. Merlin primarily specialized in water-based magic. She wanted to fight fair and square see how she should fare in front of him.

Thus she raised her wand and said: ”Everyone step back. I am the one who is facing him first.”

The others simply stood back and allowed Merlin to make that her attack. Unlike Merlin, they were not so arrogant, they knew Will would be difficult to defeat. Nevertheless, they all had the confidence to do so, and as such, they were using Merlin as a way of checking out what Will's abilities were. They hadn't really seen them perfectly but they knew that he could pack quite a punch due to his incredible profile.

He had swatted away Merlin's fire arrow barrage easily. Not to mention how he had dealt with the assassin that had attacked him. Since Will is a Water Meister, there was no doubt he had gained something from that battle. None of them knew what it was, so they were not going to take Will lightly in this battle.
