Chapter 1387 Deadly Speed
Flint flew into rage due to Grey"s words. Grey could care less about his feelings, he would not agree to satisfy the ego of this person before him.
"Klaus, if you"re looking to play, he"s right there. I"m not interested in all this." Grey whispered to Klaus.
Those close to them didn"t hear this, neither did Flint, but the Old man and the Elders heard his words clearly.
The Old man grabbed the armrest on the chair he was sitting on and it cracked under the pressure.
The middle-aged man saw this and was left speechless by Grey"s att.i.tude. Grey was proud, and it was clear that he didn"t have any intention of fighting with Flint.
Seeing the middle-aged man on the verge of losing his temper, he stood up and vanished, appearing on the platform a few seconds later.
"Defeat him, and I"ll let you in on a secret about the formation." His words felt like the soothing spring to Grey"s ears, it warmed his heart, and he felt a cool breeze blow through his hair.
Grey"s figure appeared on the platform silently.
"I"m here, give it your best shot." Grey said to Flint.
Flint was even more angered by the fact that Grey was promised something before he stepped up. He was not angered by the fact that he was promised something before he appeared, he was angered at the confidence Grey portrayed. The fact that he didn"t even think twice before appearing on the platform meant that he was certain of his victory.
"I will make sure you regret your decision." He concluded inside.
He positioned himself, ready for the battle.
"Don"t spend too much time, remember we have more places to visit."
Klaus" voice came from the stand.
Flint was furious when he heard this, but then he calmed down. He knew not to get emotional before any battle, and even during the times he gets emotional, he wants to ensure he channeled into his battle, using it to fuel his attack power.
Grey looked at Flint"s calm demeanor and was impressed. Given the words he had said so far, as well as Klaus" words, he expected him to be on the verge of losing control. To be honest, the reason he didn"t want to fight was because he didn"t see any point in doing that.
He had already tested Flint"s strength and knew he was not on his level. He might be strong, but not strong enough to fight him on his own.
He thought Flint knew this as well, but from the looks of it, it seems he misunderstood what happened during their first exchange.
"Did he misunderstand or does he not just want to accept it?" Grey thought.
This was a valid thought process. Anyone with a good brain should already see the difference between them after their first exchange, but Flint seems to have fried his brain and believed he could fight with him even after being overpowered with a casual attack.
The duo prepared to fight. The middle-aged man called the fight. He told them the normal rules of not killing their opponents and then left them alone on the platform.
Flint didn"t speak and attacked as soon as the man said they could fight.
Grey didn"t waste any time either, after all, Klaus told him to hurry up.
Grey took a step and vanished, he appeared behind Flint and attacked.
Flint was already aware of his ability with the s.p.a.ce element, so he was prepared for something like this. His first attack was actually a bait, his intention was for Grey to attack from behind him.
As soon as Grey appeared, the entire area around Flint turned into an inferno. The flames covered both of them and he turned around to attack with a swipe of his leg.
Grey didn"t shake, even with the appearance of the flames, he grabbed Flint"s leg, his expression the same.
After grabbing hold of Flint"s leg, he pushed him back with a simple movement.
The inferno moved with Flint.
Grey"s unused appearance was seen by everyone, and a few of the youths gasped. They couldn"t believe Flint"s powerful domain was dealt with so easily by Grey.
Grey didn"t even show any signs of discomfort while he was inside the domain, he only grabbed Flint"s leg and pushed him away.
Flint didn"t seem too surprised, he knew Grey was going to be an easy opponent, but he was confident in his abilities.
He rushed forward once again, and unleashed an attack.
This time, Grey didn"t dodge, two palms made of the earth element appeared and did a clap, stopping Flint"s attack that was coming towards him.
Grey finally decided to make a move after blocking this, his figure started to fade.
Those with keen eyes saw another figure of Grey standing close to Flint. A pale blue flaming lotus exploded in that direction. The explosion took place before Grey"s figure faded off completely.
"An afterimage!"
A few shocked shouts came from the crowd.
Flint"s figure shot out of the explosion, closely followed by a figure covered in red lightning.
Grey decided to make use of his red lightning since it made him faster compared to the normal silver lightning.
He soon caught up with Flint who was mid-air and attacked.
Flint was sent crashing into the ground. Even though he blocked the attack, the impact was beyond his comprehension.
His back hit the ground, and after the first bounce, before he could regain clarity, he saw Grey, who was covered with red lightning standing close to him.
An earth pillar sent him up, and Grey appeared above him.
Grey stomped on his stomach. The force of the stomp sent him through the pillar that was over ten meters high in the sky.
Flint"s figure slammed into the platform with a loud bang.
Everyone present was shocked at what just happened. Grey moved with deadly speed that only those above the Venerable Plane was able to keep up with his speed.
