Chapter 1954: The Fight Against Savants -Part 5
"LETS GOOOOOOO!" The Sinhua reporter who was bitter at Jin"s actions due to the humiliation he suffered, turned extremely supportive during this fight. It was as if all the hate had gone when he saw Jin was not those who merely showed his powers for the sake of goading.
That mysterious "Grade 4" Demon Exorcist was that powerful.
He had killed the Wyrm Summoner "Demon Exorcist" in one go when everyone thought he was supposedly the strongest among the four. To be able to control 4 Wyrms and use them in sync was a feat that even Demon Exorcist Tamers did not have the expertise to do so. Much less handling one Wyrm.
But they have seen the weakness of the Wyrm Summoner. As the Wyrm Summoner was powerful in wielding those four Wyrms, the monster of a summoner was not able to hold himself against even an all rounder. That was why the audience understood why it did not appear in the beginning and instead at the later part of the combat exhibition showcase.
If the Wyrm Summoner were to appear first, the audience believed that there was no way he would survive to fight against Jin. That was why they deduced that the Warrior "Demon Exorcist" and subsequently the others appeared to tire the Grade 4.
It was only after they were either out of tricks or were sure that they had reduced the stamina of the Grade 4, then the Wyrm Summoner came in to support them. Hence the four Wyrms as those dragons subspecies were meant to complement the other three "Demon Exorcists" to fight against the Grade 4.
Still, they never expected this fake Grade 4 to withstand the might of these four Demon Exorcists. Everyone knows that being able to have a mastery in either the blade or chi powers would take dozens of years. But to be able to showcase an all rounded expert that not only be able to fight with a variety of weapons but also cast chi based magic? That was a first for many of them.
As if to impress the audience even further, Jin took out a monster out of nowhere the moment the Wyrm Summoner appeared. This further increased his popularity to be a tamer of a strong demon while still being able to hold his ground against multiple enemies. The Demon Exorcist Commandos who saw this combat exhibition showcase had their jaws dropped.
No matter how hard they had trained and were bitter to the Grade 4 in the first place, turned into a slight shame.
How could they call themselves commandos when by definition they were the best of the best in the frontlines and yet there was this guy who was beyond everyone"s expectations? It was subtle but they felt that JODE Chancellor Ma Ge and Grand Headmistress Yuan did not put this person and them here by chance.
It was a calculated move to show how inadequate the current expertise of the Demon Exorcists was.
But as the various groups were at the back thinking upon watching the scene, the obviously fake Grade 4 did another stunning move. Just when everyone thought that he was only proficient with two elements, they did not know that he was more than just proficient.
He was a G.o.d d.a.m.n specialist in those two elements.
Jin knew that when he reached the ground, the caster would throw spells in intervals while the other two Savants would break him down. So his next objective was to disable the Caster Savant before Grand Headmistress Yuan pulled another one from the rug for him to contest.
Either way, he need something powerful that even when another Savant interferes, either the Caster Savant or the next Savant would not be able to stop him.
Even if they did, they would receive damage that was significant enough for his little Pet who was enjoying this whole endeavour. Thus, use the Caster"s stationary position as the basis of casting. Ground spikes first came out which Jin knew that it would not work mainly due to the fact that if the Caster Savant did not move away from it, he must have some backup plan of sorts.
Either through protection spells or a teleportation spell to spirit him away from the place.
Thus, the ground spikes did the trick and the Caster Savant teleported away while Jin pretended to pull another wave of ground spikes up around it.
However, the Caster disappeared out of sight, and considering that the arena was the only s.p.a.ce that the stadium had with no obstacles around, Jin knew that he was either way high up in the sky but still within the arena"s boundaries or he was invisible.
The Savants had no idea that Jin did not need to cast detect or reveal magic when his Inverse Eyes were capable of doing all that without a single magic cast. It instantly revealed the Caster Savant"s location to be right above Jin.
Considering that was the only place where the Caster would be able to throw fire b.a.l.l.s ice b.a.l.l.s or whatever magic b.a.l.l.s at Jin, it was a pretty safe spot for a swordsman like him.
But what the Caster Savant did not expect was that the Jin turned his back even as he was falling to the arena grounds and extended his hand towards the Caster. At that point, the Caster felt the winds around him were moving a little too unnaturally and then realised Jin had manipulated the molecules around the Caster.
A "wind like hand" grabbed the Caster Savant and he was being violently pulled to the ground.
Moving at a velocity that was even faster than the rate Jin was falling from the skies those who did not keep the movements of the fake Grade 4, were not able to see that the Caster had been dragged from the skies and straight into the arena grounds there the grounds spikes that initially missed him from the start, began to shoot right towards him, piercing the Caster Savant so messily that the System exploded an impromptu dust of sand of the ground spike to cover the incessant piercing of the Caster Savant.
It was a brutal death that the Caster was unable to react in time and Jin was left with the Lancer and Warrior Savant to deal with.
