Chapter 389: Missed the Target

Translator: OneshotwonderEditor: Hitesh_

The two fighters stared at each other as they felt the noise around them start to tune down. This was a fight that required their absolute concentration, since what was at stake was not simply a victory or a defeat, but something much greater than that.

”Divine Preaching!”

Michaux shouted as he switched through a few hand signs. The hand signs had caught other Mastery casters off guard. They knew that Michaux would never use hand signs while unleashing his attacks, unless he was going to double down on his attack.

”Break!” Michaux shouted.

'Kaboom!'

As if struck by a nuke, the entire arena trembled. The roar of the explosion could be heard miles away. Even while sitting behind the energy shield, the audiences could sense a shocking way of energy sweep across them.

Everyone was shaken by Michaux's performance, as they had finally realized that he had been holding back his power while fighting against his previous opponents.

After seeing such a deadly attack, everyone at Ayrlarng thought that Wang Tong had lost the battle there and then.

Suddenly, the front row audiences heard someone was dusting his clothes amidst the plume of dust on the stage. As the dust and the smoke settled, they watched as Wang Tong stood with tattered clothes and a broad smile on his face.

”Awesome power!” Wang Tong exclaimed.

Michaux had missed his target!

Michaux had never missed his target before, so most people started to wonder if Wang Tong had actually evaded the attack.

The students of Ayrlarng cheered after seeing that Wang Tong was unharmed. Although Wang Tong was well known in Ayrlarng as the strongest fighter—not only in METAL combat but also in fleet combat—no one had thought that he would be able to sustain such a powerful blow from the young master.

After having experienced Michaux's attack first hand, Wang Tong conceded that the soul energy attacks were indeed as powerful as what the other had claimed. Not only was the amount of soul energy in the attack enormous, but the attack was also aimed directly at the sea of consciousness. If Wang Tong didn't have the soul essence guarding his sea of consciousness, he would have been defeated just like all the other opponents of Michaux.

Having missed his target, Michaux was overtaken by astonishment, as his eyes glinted with curiosity.

Wang Tong clutched his fists and smiled faintly. Suddenly, he poked the air in front of him with one of his index fingers and then he announced, ”Break!”

”Kaboom...Kaboom... KABOOM!”

A serious of explosion erupted on the ground, with a pattern that was the same as that of Michaux. The blasts let loose a storm of grit and sands hurling towards Michaux.

Michaux slammed a palm down on the ground, sending a wave of soul energy to counter the incoming storm, and eventually subsided the intensity of the storm.

Everyone was in awe of the level of power at the display. After a reverential silence, a wave of cheers erupted from the audiences.

”Who is Wang Tong? How come he was able to stand his ground against the young master?”

Not only had Wang Tong surprised everyone by his powerful attack, but Michaux's superb defense ability had also caught many audiences off guard.

It was obvious by then that the fight was not going to end any time soon.

”Brother Wang, are you planning to defeat me using my own ability?” Wang Tong's attack amused Michaux. Sensing the power in Wang Tong's attack, Michaux was elated to finally fight the mysterious fighter one on one.
