The burst of energy settled, leaving Oasis standing tall and triumphant.“Dammit, that was a hell of a pain,” he mused, wiping the blood from his face.The crimson streaks contrasted starkly against his determined expression, showcasing the intense ordeal he had just endured.Oasis then sat down, crossing his legs in a meditative pose, and began consolidating his energy.He focused on stabilizing the newfound power within him, drawing deep breaths as the ambient mana slowly integrated into his system.The serene night air aided his concentration, and the gentle lapping of the lake's water provided a calming backdrop to his efforts."It's already late, and Selene hasn't come back yet," he thought, glancing at the moonlit horizon.After some time, feeling more centered and stable, Oasis decided to take a break.He stripped off his clothes and waded into the nearby lake, the cool water providing a soothing contrast to the heat of his cultivation."Wow, this is nice and relaxing," he sighe
The scene transformed instantly. A colossal wave of fire surged from Agni’s hands, spiraling into a towering inferno.The intense heat radiated outward, causing the water in the nearby lake to evaporate rapidly, creating thick clouds of steam.The ground around Agni blackened, scorched by the sheer intensity of his magic.Oasis felt the searing heat and knew this was no ordinary spell.The Hell Inferno was immense, a testament to Agni's potential and the strength of his fire magic.He stood his ground, feeling the heat closing in. The air around him crackled with energy."I feel like I can take this head-on," Oasis thought. He lowered his guard, embracing the Hell Inferno with a calm confidence."Don't just stand there, dodge, dammit!" Agni roared, panic creeping into his voice as he saw Oasis not countering.Selene, watching from a distance, widened her eyes in shock, fearing Oasis would be killed by the spell.The spell hit Oasis, and the energy exploded, lighting up the night sky b
Thump... thump... thump..."Pathetic, pathetic, pathetic," Agni muttered, his voice laced with frustration.Each punch landed heavily against the tree, his fire aura scorching the bark with every blow.The once sturdy tree began to blacken and char under the relentless assault, smoke curling up from the burnt wood."Dammit, I'm such a loser," he spat, his breaths coming in ragged gasps.Agni had always considered himself among the best of the best, a prodigy of his generation.But the harsh lesson taught by Oasis had shattered that belief, leaving him feeling weak and humiliated for the first time in his life.The memory of the encounter replayed in his mind, stoking the flames of his anger and frustration.The tree bore the brunt of his emotions, the fiery aura intensifying with each punch.Sparks flew, and the air around him grew hot and oppressive. His body remembered the feeling of being overpowered, fueling his rage.As he continued to hit the tree, his aura and energy suddenly g
He stepped outside under the moonlit sky, the cool air contrasting sharply with the heat of his training field.He began the steps of the Dancing Phoenix Technique, his movements graceful yet powerful.Each step felt like a dance, a blend of agility and strength, as he sought to master the new footwork.The technique required an intricate balance of mana and physical movement, pushing him to harmonize his body and energy in a way he hadn't before.Sweat dripped from his brow as he focused intensely, his body moving with increasing fluidity and precision.As the night deepened, Oasis could feel his understanding of the technique growing.The movements became more natural, the energy flow smoother.He was no longer just mimicking the steps; he was beginning to embody the essence of the Dancing Phoenix.With each movement, his confidence grew. The technique, though challenging, promised to enhance his combat prowess significantly, allowing him to move with unmatched speed and grace.As h
The restaurant fell silent, all eyes on the confrontation.Mira's face went pale, and she looked at Oasis with a mixture of fear and concern."Oasis, don't..." Mira whispered, but Oasis placed a reassuring hand on her shoulder."Relax, Mira," Oasis said calmly, standing up and turning to face Jumbo."Jumbo, right? If you want a duel, let's take it outside. There's no need to cause a scene here."Jumbo sneered, his eyes blazing with fury."Fine. Outside, now!" he growled, storming out of the restaurant with his followers."Oasis, are you sure about this?" Mira asked, her voice trembling slightly."Mira," Oasis replied, his expression serious. "I'll handle this."They walked outside, followed by a crowd of curious students eager to see the duel. Oasis stood calmly, waiting for Jumbo to make his move."This is going to be interesting.""Do you think that brat stands a chance?""Jumbo is in his 2nd year of practicals. I heard he's already at the Newborn realm.""Let's just watch.""Jumbo
In a secluded, opulent room within the academy, the ambiance was one of luxury and decadence.The room was lavishly furnished, with plush velvet drapes, intricately carved wooden furniture, and a large, ornate chandelier hanging from the ceiling, casting a warm glow over everything.Delilah, a Student with an air of authority and confidence, sat in a high-backed chair, her posture relaxed yet commanding. "So we now have a young genius in the academy," she smirked, her eyes gleaming with a mix of interest and amusement. "Yes, My Lady. Apparently, he is from the Bluemoon family," a young man said, massaging her shoulders with practiced ease.His tone was respectful, yet there was a hint of trepidation in his voice."Dammit, we should be careful about touching him," Delilah said, her expression turning bored after hearing the association with the Bluemoon family."But My Lady Delilah, in the academy, family names don't matter," another young man standing nearby interjected.His voice w
The academy’s marketplace, known as the Scarlet Bazaar, was a bustling hub filled with students and merchants.Primarily frequented by first and second-year practical students and theory students, the bazaar was alive with vibrant activity.Stalls lined the cobbled streets, offering everything from rare herbs and potions to enchanted weapons and magical artifacts.The air was filled with the sounds of haggling and the enticing aroma of street food."Wow, this place is crowded and there are a lot of different students," Oasis thought as he navigated through the throng of people, his eyes scanning the various shops and stalls for a blacksmith.After a few minutes of walking, he spotted a sign that read "Ethereal Refiners" on one of the buildings."Ethereal Refiners," Oasis read aloud as he approached the entrance.He stepped inside and was immediately struck by the cleanliness and organization of the shop.Weapons, armors, and various artifacts were neatly displayed on shelves, each pie
For the past two months, Oasis had been training harder than ever.With the help of the weight adjustment set he purchased from the Ethereal Refiner shop, his training regimen had become a balanced blend of physical conditioning and spiritual cultivation.Every morning, he began with the Phoenix's Heart cultivation technique, followed by intense physical training at noon, and concluded with the Dancing Phoenix Footwork in the evening.This routine had become second nature to him.Just after sunset, Oasis stood in his training field, calm and focused, his shirtless torso glistening with sweat.Taking a deep breath, he started moving rapidly around the field.His blue aura radiated around his body, leaving trails of light and mirages in his wake as he demonstrated his lean, muscular physique.The moonlight reflected off his sweat, adding a mystical sheen to his movements."Not bad," Oasis murmured to himself, smiling as he admired the results of his hard work."It's just a matter of time
