Chapter 215 (2/2)

As such, he could only smile and laugh dumbly, attempting to cover up his awkwardness. The God of Justice misunderstood the reason behind his smile, thinking that he was trying to keep it a secret, and just simply could not resist laughing.

“Right, I should not be trying to uncover your secrets.” He laughed as he approached, patting Sui Xiong, who had become a giant jellyfish that was the size of a few houses!

“Everyone has their own secrets, especially regarding this move, which should be the ace up your sleeve. I was only just being curious earlier. I had no intention of making you divulge your secrets!” He stressed this point.

Sui Xiong conversely did not feel that this knockoff railgun counted as a unique skill. In fact, his true hidden move was still slowly gathering power. With the electromagnetic gun, it was just a test, to see if it could be used as a delivery method for a warhead.

He laughed, letting the matter go, then lightly asked, “What do you think we should do next?”

“What to do? Weren’t you the one who said to give the Master of Mystery a fierce beating?” the God of Justice curiously asked.

Sui Xiong used a tentacle to rub his head, then said with some worry, “I’m still honing it. If that move is used again, it might start a feud…”

He originally was unable to hold back his anger. He wanted to give the Master of Mystery an unforgettable lesson, but his blasting the God of Spellcasters with the railgun earlier had caused his anger to dissipate greatly. Now, he could not help but have some hesitation.

After all, he was just a peace loving artist. These past few days had been so comfortable, so he truly did not want to take part in conflicts with others.

When he had used his special move earlier, his mind was filled with fury. Now that he had calmed down partially, he was thinking again about the possibilities of everyone sitting down for an amiable discussion, instead of having a cataclysmic fight.

“A conflict of duties, paired with a conflict of ideals… This was destined to become an irreconcilable enmity from the start.” Morani heard this as she flew over. She couldn’t resist laughing, as she said, “Regardless, your relations cannot possibly get any worse. So, why worry about forming grudges? There’s no need to bother.”

“There won’t be any more grudges?” Sui Xiong asked.

“There’s no possible way to have any more grudges,” Morani said. “Your and Wor’s magic have not been sealed yet, right? This is just his attitude.”

Sui Xiong looked towards the God of Justice again.

The God of Justice chuckled and nodded. “It’s definite that we have to fight anyway. So, instead of waiting to fight in the future, let’s just take advantage of the current situation, fighting now and getting it over with!”

Now it was Sui Xiong’s turn to laugh too. He then turned around to drill into the ground.

“I’ll continue to plan some big moves. You guys go ahead and continue hosting the competition.”

Yorgaardman and Morani froze in the air, staring at each other, before laughing bitterly.

The situation had already come to such a point, so why was he still thinking of having a competition?!

But, Sui Xiong had already pushed for this decision, so they had no reason to object. As such, under their management, the competition actually continued to take place.

As to those experts at the peak, watching the battle between the God of Knowledge and the God of Spellcasters had made a great impact on them. In comparison, the subsequent battles between experts that were approaching legendary status felt dull and dry. One by one, they began to leave the scene, going back to reflect on the battle that they had just witnessed, in order to extract as much experience as possible from it. After all, they were on a search for a path towards greater planes!

To the mortals in the grandstand, the battle between the two gods had no meaning. Instead, it was the battle between Lewre and Soocher that was the most spectacular to them, exciting them to the point that their blood boiled and they cheered wildly!

But Lewre and Soocher had already felt the effects of that battle earlier, and so they did not fight too vigorously. Although they still fought flashily, using countless tricks, it could still be seen that neither party had given their 100 percent effort to acquire victory, unlike they had in the previous one. Thus, this type of battle,was just a charade to fool others mainly.

Both of them fought for about an hour, before the battle ended with Lewre proving himself superior. Lewre achieved the victory by shooting deftly with the divine bow, forcing Soocher out of the arena.

Actually, Soocher could have displayed her skill of elementalization to carry on the fight, but her will to fight was low, and she was in no mood to continue fighting. So, she admitted defeat.

In the finals the following day, both Alan, who was from the winners bracket, and Lewre, who was from the losers bracket, had already adjusted their mental states, allowing them to display their abilities to the fullest. Both of these peak level experts had already used all of their abilities, and were determined to not have any regrets. Hence, they happily fought.

Thus, the final battle of the first ever martial competition convention proved worthy of its name! It was truly spectacular, an unparalleled sight to behold!
