Chapter 54: Devil Fangs

The whole place became so silent that even a quiet sneeze could be heard as a wild thunderbolt.

Even Jane and Scarlett looked at this scene with frozen expressions, hardly believing that they saw the earlier things right.

Both of them knew and understood that Angor’s Talent was associated with speed, letting him move with such velocity that it was relatively hard to follow.

However, they also knew that this Talent alone wouldn’t be difficult to counter, but Angor found out a hidden potential of his Talent. He realized, that by using the momentum his Talent created, he could achieve power that could be easily compared to any other person with a body strengthening Talent! Just a single punch from him could end anyone’s life on the same Cultivation Stage let alone those below him!

Yet, Khal not only accomplished to defend against Angor’s crazy attack, who was a whole Cultivation Stage above him, but even did a successful counter-attack! He kicked Angor away like a piece of garbage, ignoring the absolute fact that he was above him in Stage!

And what is more, not only did he kick him away, but he even asked where the so told absolute power was that Angor talked about a few minutes ago. This was complete madness!!

Although expressionless but surprised, in Jane’s eyes, a faint glint flashed and vanished at the same time, while a soft curve emerged on the corner of her mouth.

However, what neither Jane nor no one else knew, that the weapon in Khal’s hand was in no ordinary mean normal.

Maybe not fully, but Khal finally understood a few things about his weapon, which in fact, was the Ember Core.

As far as he understood, Ember Core and Power Core were two different things. While Power Core could be only used through his bracelet, Ember Core was a whole part of his body. After it fused with him back in the forest, Khal realized that it became completely one with his body.

He couldn’t describe it, but he somehow felt that an Ember Core became his Talent, but at the same time, it couldn’t be called as Talent. This was mostly obvious because when he used it, it didn’t let out any presence at all, but he felt he could make it stronger if he himself became stronger too.

*Crack!*

*Crack!*

Standing up from the debris his body created, Angor wiped the trail of blood from his mouth and put up his attacking posture once again.

“I underestimated you. You are way stronger than I have thought.”

Upon hearing this, people started to whisper among each other, but the very next second Angor’s voice sounded once again, turning the whole arena once again silent.

“But what I said is true. Before absolute power, you can’t do anything but bow your head! And I will show you right now!”

After what happened with Angor, people would believe he went completely crazy, but the expression he showed made them doubt their thoughts.

Those determined eyes without any slight of arrogance or exaggeration, showed them maybe he truly had a way to win. As for how, they didn’t have a clue.

“Then I hope you can it show me.” told Khal calmly without the slightest of underestimation and with a delicate flick of his hand, he turned his fan back into the shape of a dagger.

*Clang!*

As the metallic sound wailed in the air, inflicting a heavy pressure onto the arena, Angor nodded and said, “Here I come..”

*Crack!*

*BOOM!*

Leaving a deep crater in his wake, Angor’s body flashed and appeared on the right side of Khal, kicking toward his waist like a whip.

“..”

Even though he didn’t look at it with his eyes precisely, but Khal was still able to see everything Angor did. Watching with a calm expression as the boy kicked toward him with a power that could smash even a huge boulder into dust, Khal lowered his hand to his side and blocked Angor’s leg with his weapon.

*BOOM!*

The impact was so great the ground below Angor’s feet cracked, yet even like this, Angor was unable to penetrate through Khal’s fan.

“tsk..” clicked his tongue in dissatisfaction, and without wasting another second, Angor vanished and reappeared before Khal.

*BOOM!*

But just like his previous two attempts, this one too got stopped by Khal’s fan, causing Angor’s expression to pale even more.

“This master won’t believe he can’t touch you!”

*BOOM!*

*BOOM!*historical

*BOOM!*

One attempt after another, Angor’s body flashed around Khal’s body from time to time like a phantom, leaving behind wide cracks and deep pits after every attack. However, no matter how many times he ambushed or tried to go through Khal’s defense, Khal somehow always reacted in time and with the help of his weapon, blocked every endeavor of his.

To think he was unable to touch even his clothing, made Andor clench his teeth in anger and push himself to his limit even more.

“..”

The onlookers on the other hand looked at this sight in complete silence. No one talked, but watched in silence as Khal, without moving even a single step forward, blocked and pushed Angor’s onslaughts like they were nothing more but mere jokes.

And what was even more shocking, that he did all of that without looking at Angor! He just dazed off into the distance with a nonchalant face, unknown what he was thinking!

“Just who is he? Is he truly on the Second Cultivation Stage?”

“I.. I don’t know.”

“Damn.. That little boy has no chance of winning at all. Just what is that weapon? How can it deflect all those powerful attacks?!”

As people whispered amidst each other in wonder, Angor gave another punch at Khal from the back, but that also was defended off without difficulty like any of the previous ones.

“Hah.. Hah.. Hah..”

Breathing heavily because overusing his physical limit, Angor clenched his teeth and put up another attacking posture, “I will show you! I will definitely win!”

Saying that with unshakable determination Angor was about to continue his attack, when suddenly Khal moved.

“!?”

Angor and everyone around watched as Khal turned around slowly, and stared at Angor with a calm gaze. However, right at the moment, those pair of eyes from Angor’s view were the very eyes of the evil, piercing right into his soul!

“You are strong.” started talking Khal calmly, causing Angor’s body to flinch unwittingly, “But unfortunately, you lost the very moment you acted arrogantly.”

And with that, Khal raised his fan to his side and with an expressionless face, said, “Now it’s my turn.”

“!?”

Instantly as those words sounded, a mysterious silver light enveloped the abyss black fan, causing the 4 experts’ complexion present to change quickly.

“Not good!”

*Swish!*

*KA-BOOM!*
