Daniel took a deep breath and exhaled several times, trying to channel his inner energy into his chest to ease the pain that tormented him. Seeing her opponent struggling, Dakota approached Daniel again. Her casual steps indicated that she didn't take this fight or Daniel seriously.Daniel was fascinated by Dakota's technique. "I've been using the Reverse Energy Transfer technique, but it doesn't seem to be working!"The Reverse Energy Transfer Technique was an advanced version of the Energy Transfer Technique. While the latter could only transfer energy from the Warrior's body to others, the former could absorb or receive energy from the bodies of others.Daniel received an improvement in this technique after he raised his body's level to the fourth level of the Lion.The way this technique worked was very similar to Laura's dual cultivation technique. However, Daniel's version was better because he didn't need physical contact to absorb someone else's energy.As demonstrated in his
What?Daniel's attitude made Dakota stop her laughter for a moment. She couldn't believe what she saw.She knew that the young man must be annoyed with her childish behavior. However, Dakota could see that Daniel was no foolish young man. He might be planning some kind of retaliation."Really? Are you serious?" Dakota asked, crossing her arms over her chest."Of course! I don't think there's anything wrong with getting to know each other, right?" Daniel reassured.Contrary to what Dakota thought, Daniel didn't have any malicious intentions towards the girl at that moment. On the opposite, Daniel was really interested in getting to know her."Okay!" Dakota reached out to shake Daniel's hand. "My name is..."Before the girl could finish her sentence, she put her inner energy into her palm, causing a strong heat in Daniel's hand."Argh! What are you doing?" Daniel tried to pull his hand away, feeling like he was touching hot coals.Fortunately, Dakota didn't do it for long. As soon as sh
Dakota was about to start the fight when he remembered his brother in the palanquin.Even though the young man had shown a smile and a happy face earlier, Dakota knew that he was not doing well.The internal injuries he had suffered from pushing himself to the limit while using the Dragon Fist Technique had caused significant adverse effects.The girl then went to the back of the group of Masked Warriors where the palanquin was."Brother!" she called out. She just wanted to let him know that she would be leading the troupe, and whatever happened, he didn't have to push himself to join."Brother!" she called again.But just like the first call, there was no response from inside.Dakota was about to call a third time, but negative thoughts immediately came to her mind.The girl quickly opened the door of the palanquin and found Brian curled up inside, unconscious. Thick blood flowed from his mouth."Oh my goodness! What happened to you, brother?" Dakota exclaimed.She hastily wiped Bria
That was the last thing he said before leaving the room.To make sure the two girls didn't leave, Archibald locked the door from the outside and ordered some Warriors to guard the room."Except for me or father, make sure that no one enters or leaves this place!" he ordered."Very well, sir!"Archibald quickly left the place to go to the front yard to observe the situation. Somehow, his intuition urged him to join the other Warriors who were watching Aaron's duel.Although he was confident that his father would win the duel, for some reason, he still felt uneasy, as if something bad was about to happen.Just as Archibald took a step, a loud explosion sounded from outside, causing him to speed up his pace.When he reached the front yard, his eyes fell on an old man sitting weakly on a concrete chair."Father!"Archibald approached Aaron, lowered his body and tried to speak to the old man. "What happened? How are you now?"Aaron shook his head and said that he was fine.Archibald then w
Daniel had proven himself to be not only highly talented, but also deeply caring and responsible towards Tectona, another reason why he was a suitable candidate for Esquire.As the opinions leaned more towards him, the old man in the white suit, one of the top members of the City Council, also agreed.However, Aaron remained silent, showing no interest in the proposal, which made people wonder if something was wrong."But what about the news that he attacked Young Master Amaro the day before the final match? Isn't that a serious offense?" remarked a person wearing a luxurious black suit. Among the high-ranking members of the city council, he was considered to be one of the wealthiest.The man in the black suit didn't really care as long as Daniel was willing to be accountable and give reasons for his actions.However, he could see Aaron's expression and noticed that the old Amaro man didn't like it when people talked about or mentioned Daniel's name. So he tried to understand Aaron's
Dakota stepped out of the palanquin and called the Elder of the West and the Elder of the East.These were nicknames given to two Warriors who held the third level of Lion within the elite group that was specifically tasked with guarding Brian."You are the ones who have always been with my brother. So I think you know a lot about him," Dakota said."I want to ask you if you know about this potion!" The girl presented a bottle that she had used earlier to treat Brian.Dakota was actually happy because Brian's fever had broken. That meant she could go into battle without worrying about him.If she had to choose between returning to Quercus to take better care of Brian or completing this mission, she would gladly choose the former.However, due to the importance of this mission, she couldn't just return to Quercus without any results.Therefore, Dakota needed the opinions of the two elders to assess her brother's condition and make the right decision.Both men carefully examined the bot
Daniel still stood alone in the middle of the field. He wasn't sure what Dakota was planning. But his intuition told him that another big battle was inevitable."Daniel!"A familiar voice echoed in his ears from a certain direction. Jeffrey, Montgomery and Amelia hurried over to Daniel."What shall we do? My intuition tells me that they will attack us soon!" Jeffrey exclaimed. Daniel just shook his head weakly. "I have no idea either."When Daniel had managed to defeat Brian earlier, he had felt that victory would be on Tectona's side. But Dakota's presence made everything seem difficult now."But we can do something! Come on, follow me!"Daniel led the three of them to a secluded spot behind one of the buildings of the complex. They sat in a circle, facing each other."Daniel, what are we really doing?" Montgomery asked. The same question crossed Amelia's mind, but she remained silent, continuing to watch Daniel closely. Only Jeffrey had no questions. This was because he had been thr
A few minutes earlier.The energy transfer technique that Daniel possessed had reached a completely different stage.In just a few minutes, he had managed to make Jeffrey and Montgomery break through to the first level of the Lion rank.Even if Amelia hadn't been there at that time, the two of them might have been able to advance to the second level.Unfortunately, Daniel had to divide his energy among the three of them, so Amelia reached the peak of the Eagle rank.After experiencing such a level increase, Daniel's three friends felt a much greater power than before.Not only did their bodies feel much stronger, but they also felt lighter, and their punches and kicks became faster.If Daniel were to fight the Elder of the West, his three companions would join other Tectona Warriors.With Daniel joining the battle, the spirit of the Tectona Warriors was ignited."Daniel is fighting with us! We will definitely win!""Yes! We will put all our efforts into defending Tectona, just like he
