Fabby raised an earthen well just in time to block the opponents. They still managed to destroy the wall pretty quickly.“Flying Spear!” one of them threw a flaming spear, which came pretty fast. Edgar deflected it with his sword and felt his whole arm vibrating. He immediately became full-serious because these two guys were strong. “Get underground, sis! Sky Cutting Arts…” he unsheathed both of his blades and rushed at them, swirling on his feet. “Great Dragon Gale!”A tremendous column of wind formed and blasted both the men away and up into the air.Seconds later, Fabby came out of hiding and was shocked to see the twisting column of wind in the distance. “H-How the heck are you able to create that? It looks like a hurricane. Did you consume a wind-manipulating core without me knowing?”“No,” Edgar replied quickly. “I think the thunderbird core I consumed can manipulate weather. I realized that after I started practicing the book I found in the cave guarded by the two beasts.”Fabb
Fabby didn’t fall much far compared to her brother who fell outside the crater in Zone P. Fabby didn’t think it was her attack that caused all this. She was still inside the massive crater, so she had no idea how much land her attack had affected.Nevertheless, her whole arm was quaking greatly. It was an almost unbearable pain. It was worse than being electrocuted. She couldn’t even scream but just gritted her teeth as vibrations shook her arm. As seconds passed and she fell down toward the ground, the pain slowly subsided and allowed her to be able to move that arm again.Falling from hundreds of feet high would break her bones if not straightaway kill her. She knew she had to do something.“I can do this.” She used the other hand to create a curving earthen structure and rolled down the structure and made her landing much smoother. Nevertheless, her whole head was spinning as a result. It took her half-minute just to be able to stand and be able to see properly.“Where’s Eddie?”Sh
Tenzai, Azar, and Liam were stuck in Zone O.“What the hell are these vibrations?” Liam vomited from feeling sick. “They are affecting me through the drive.”“How do we even stop these sensations?” Azar also felt greatly troubled. He randomly attacked the ground with his fire attacks, but that didn’t cause any difference.Tenzai, on the other hand, was able to bear the vibrations better than the other two, even though he didn’t have drive. He was standing tall and grinning at their pathetic show.“How the hell are you looking so comfortable?” Liam couldn’t digest it. A foot disciple of another sect was able to do better than him who was one day supposed to lead one of the twelve supreme families? Was there anything more unsettling and shameful than that?“My body is toughened with the beast cores,” Tenzai proudly answered them. “My senses can take this much pressure, I guess.”Kenna Spie flew down and landed in between those three. Her gaze briefly fell on Tenzai before she looked at
Many disciples stopped from entering Zone Q as a vast number of bubbles rose out of the ground and exploded upon touching anything.It wasn’t just the number but also the speed with which they rose that intimidated the disciples.If one wasn’t agile enough, they got blasted by the bubbles. Those without strong drive or high durability exploded into bits and pieces. It was just plain cruel they way some died.Edgar and Fabby also had to stop there alongside hundreds. While he wanted to try going forward, his sister grabbed his wrist so he couldn’t. They could hear other disciples talking.“It seems the top ten zones are going to be on another level compared to the rest.”“There must be quality skillbooks waiting to be picked. I wish I was stronger.”The outer disciples and even many of the inner disciples of various sects didn’t dare explore the higher grounds and chose to turn back.“Fighting for skillbooks in these types of environments is just suicidal,” Fabby pulled her brother awa
Cooper’s gaze now turned to the siblings. “It’s your turn.” He waved his hand, and the red disc gave off vapors as it flew at them.It was so fast Fabby couldn’t react in time and get out of its way, not that it might help. Edgar flashed in its path and deflected the disc away. He was already covered in Flame Drive.“So you can use Flame Drive,” Cooper was a little surprised. “But so what?” Multiple spinning discs formed around his raised forefinger this time. He swung his arm like a whip. “Triple Disc Threat!”All three discs this time spun much faster and screamed through the air. He grabbed the sword with both hands and stomped forth. “Hell Shock!” The combination of electricity and flame drive formed a shockwave and clashed with the incoming discs and burned them away.Cooper slightly frowned. (This guy… His drive isn’t a big deal, but his lightning ability is a bit of a pain in the ass. And he’s able to mix them well enough to crack my concentrated ‘driven’ discs. He’s definitely
The masters, grandmasters, and elders were all watching with interest as there were quite many fights taking place in Zone A and Zone B.The one who was causing the most impact in Zone B was Rick Dichoso, an outer disciple from Ogvi Warriors. His spear skills were threatening to say the least. It didn’t matter whether the opponent was close or far, he could take them down with similar effort.After taking down a group of three all by himself, he peered through the blizzard and noticed Edgar and Fabby. He pointed his spear almost parallel to the ground, with the tip slightly pointing upward. A pulse of energy coursed through his arm and traveled through the spear. “Bird Cannon!” A red energy bird flew out of the spear and missiled onto the siblings.“Watch out!” Fabby warned.“I know!” Edgar immediately unsheathed his sword and blocked the bird. It then exploded, sending both of them flying back. The sword fell out of his hand. “Kugh,” Edgar found his arm trembling.“Eddie!” Fabby worr
The siblings had the air of confidence as they looked down on Rick who was on his knees and bound in drive-strengthened earthen chains. “Do you still consider us weak?” asked Fabby. Rick ground his teeth. “Don’t get ahead of yourselves, you ignorant fools!” He released a blast of drive around his body and managed to break free from the chains and also clear all the snow around him for almost twenty feet. His overdrive could be felt by the siblings. It stung their bodies and made them feel like they were near a stove. “Let me show you how weak you are!” Rick took out a new spear from his storage ring and lunged at them. “Cracking Spear Dance!” He attacked their bodies with his spear from left and right as well as up and down extremely fast. Edgar had to push Fabby away and take on the attacks with dual swords. In a matter of seconds, over a hundred attacks were thrown, and Rick’s speed and agility only kept increasing. Edgar was forced to use Flame Drive to fend off Rick’s attacks,
“Edgar, watch out!” Fabby howled.Dozens of disciples that had been watching their fight for a while now attacked Edgar almost from every direction.Edgar was always confident in his ability to hear things. However, in this Zone B, where there was a constant blizzard blowing about, hearing things wasn’t easy. Still, he heard a sword coming from behind, and he knew he had to move away, or the arm he was holding the skillbooks with would get chopped.His body reacted to his thoughts and moved away. As he predicted, someone attacked him with a large blade that just missed him.But Edgar still found himself frozen because a spear pierced him from the back and struck his shoulder. The four skillbooks fell before he could send them into his storage ring. Moreover, he was shocked because he couldn’t hear the spear at all, and it made him realize something as he jumped away from there. “He must have used sheerdrive to cover the spear. Dammit.”It was frustrating to jump away from the four ski
