1511 Landon! Ash Flame! (2)
The audience gulped saliva when they saw that scene.
Those talented warriors were all perverse!
However, even though there was an incoming attack, Landon didn’t move. He kept the gentle smile on his face, still exceptionally confident.
Edwina’s pretty face turned grim.
“Go!” she shouted and lashed out with her linked whip. The giant python hissed and opened its giant maw as it shot towards her opponent.
!!
Landon’s weapon was a long spear. He made a stabbing motion, with shadows lingering in the air, while the weapon had gray flames burning around it.
Boom!
The spear glow rushed out; sharp, and bright enough to cut through the sky.
Only the spear remained in the entire s.p.a.ce.
The giant python was instantly pierced through. The virtual creature stopped hissing; its body, made with skilled use of Force, shattered and the energy blast swept the area.
The metal whip fell down as if weakened, having lost vitality.
Edwina was appalled. She squinted.
A figure stepped out of the void, instantly flas.h.i.+ng to stand before her. The sharp edge of the spear landed inches away from her throat.
The ice-cold metallic feeling caused her to shudder.
“You lost!” Landon said indifferently.
The woman’s face turned pale. The defeat was so quick and direct that she didn’t have any intention of resisting.
Gasp!
There was a huge commotion.
They were both top ten qualifiers, but the difference was huge.
Landon had won beautifully; a single attack was all it took. Some people didn’t even see what he did or how he won.
The match ended and both parties left. However, the audience were still talking about it.
“Landon used a special flame, right?!”
“I’ve never seen a gray flame before.”
“It’s said that the Parkers have trapped many special star beasts with beast flames, so that they can have an endless supply.”
“I know about this too. Everyone kind of knows about it. It’s quite obvious by now.”
“I wonder what kind of flame it was. It seemed to be powerful.”
“Is it a divine flame?”
“No way! Divine flames are stronger.”
“That’s right. Divine flames are rare.”
…
The candidates showed different expressions when they saw Landon descend and return to his seat. They viewed him with more importance now.
No one thought that a warrior who always followed behind Strachey would be that powerful!
Strachey normally blocked his limelight, but he managed to get it back.
That performance instilled in many the idea that Strachey wasn’t the only powerful warrior from their family.
w.a.n.g Teng glanced at Landon with a strange glimmer in his eyes before he quickly released his spiritual power and picked up the attribute bubbles floating in the sky.
Dragon Blood Battle Physique (fourth-rank)*100
Constellation Force (Fire)*2600
Ash Flame*1000
…
w.a.n.g Teng raised his eyebrows and flashed a meaningful smile. He glanced at Landon again.
Fourth-ranked Dragon Blood Battle Physique!
If he remembered correctly, back when they fought the Oceanic Unicorn Whale, Strachey had dropped this const.i.tution, but only of third rank.
This meant that Landon’s skill was a rank higher than Strachey’s!
This is interesting!
The guy who’s always behind Strachey has a stronger physique than him.
I wonder if Strachey knows about this.
If he didn’t…
What would his reaction be when he found out?
As expected, not one member of the elite families was naive and innocent. Everyone had their own agendas.
Is this what they mean by respecting your elder siblings and loving the younger ones? w.a.n.g Teng touched his chin and wondered.
Landon felt something and turned. His heart skipped a beat when he met w.a.n.g Teng’s gaze.
This fellow’s gaze is weird.
w.a.n.g Teng smiled and looked away to focus on his attributes board.
Dragon Blood Battle Physique: 100/40000 (fourth-rank)
The const.i.tution had risen another rank, but it didn’t have many points yet; barely a hundred.
After all, Landon didn’t use much of his physique’s powers.
However, it still counted as a rise in rank.
Aside from that, w.a.n.g Teng had also received another special flame, called Ash Flame.
He had already laid eyes on the gray colored fire during the match. Now, he found out its name and origin, born from Gray Sun Stones. It wasn’t a beast flame.
Of course, it wasn’t a divine flame either!
It was entirely different and incomparable.
However, it was of the earth element, different from normal flames.
It had played an important role so Landon could easily defeat Edwina.
Earth was the natural enemy of water!
When the flame was used to counter her water attack, the water Force was instantly destroyed.
That was the reason why Edwina had been defeated so badly.
Our hero was probably the only one who really knew how she lost.
That is, besides the universe and eternal stage warriors.
He nodded in approval. Earth element flames were rare, since flames would mainly be created with the fire element. The merging of the earth element required various conditions and fate.
Normal flames weren’t as lucky.
w.a.n.g Teng was elated. He received the Wood Polaris Flame from Strachey and now, he grabbed the Ash Flame.
One was a wood-element based while the other was of the earth element, each having their own special characteristics.
If he wanted to make them stronger, he needed to get more attributes from Strachey and Landon.
w.a.n.g Teng smiled and searched through the Devouring Nihility Beast’s memory to gain a better understanding of the Ash Flame.
As he rummaged through the information, there was a sudden shock.
He almost jumped.
Wtf!
He almost cursed too.
His strange actions caused the Crown Prince, the Second Prince, and Strachey to turn.
“What’s the matter?” the Second Prince asked.
“Nothing,” w.a.n.g Teng replied calmly, keeping a composed expression.
“Weird!” Strachey snorted.
“Do you want to die?” w.a.n.g Teng’s gaze turned chilly.
“You can try.” Strachey scoffed.
“Bite me,” w.a.n.g Teng said.
The veins on his rival’s forehead popped out. This b.a.s.t.a.r.d’s treating me like I’m a dog.
“All right, all right, let’s check the next match,” said the Second Prince to mediate.
“Hmph!” Strachey turned and snorted.
“Hmph, looking for trouble,” w.a.n.g Teng complained softly.
The Second Prince was caught between laughter and tears. The feud between the young earthling and the Parkers was big. They were always arguing.
He was worried. There was nothing to gain from provoking the Parkers.
Their waters were deep!
w.a.n.g Teng ignored Strachey and closed his eyes. He went through the information he found.
After some time, his eyes opened again; they were s.h.i.+ning. Gray-White Flame!
He found the records of the Gray-White Flame in Nihility’s memory. The flame was related to the Ash Flame.
The latter was special, born inside Gray Sun Stones. What many people didn’t know was that a special geological environment would form wherever those stones were. It was known as the Gray-White Region!
Due to certain conditions, a gray-white mist would cover the region, which was able to fossilize any living creature, be it plants, animals, or other. Any being with vitality would be fossilized.
The region had a certain chance of producing the Gray-White Flame.
This was a divine flame.
Of course, not all regions would breed such a flame; they normally were scary and dangerous places where only the mist existed.
