Chapter 477 - Meteor Descent

Chapter 477 - Meteor Descent

Swoosh! Bang!

Euric tried to counter-attack, but he was once again sent flying by Grey's fire attack.

Everyone could see how easy it was for Grey to push him back, it was almost like he wasn't even trying to fight with him.

"We should end this, don't you think so?" Grey asked calmly.

He was expecting a real challenge, but unfortunately, Euric wasn't up to standards or maybe he was just too monstrous for him.

Euric gritted his teeth angrily, he wanted to refute, but even he knew the fight was pointless. Grey could easily block his attacks and also push him back, if he was a little more serious, then he would be unconscious by now. But, he didn't want to give up so easily.

"I know you're stronger than I am, but I want to see your true strength," Euric said, the air of superiority long gone.

"Oh, if you say so," Grey replied.

Since Euric wanted to see him at full power, then he would honor him. He could slightly understand what Euric was currently feeling, after always being the one hailed as the strongest in the Origin Plane, his pride took a hit after being suppressed by someone else.

Grey inhaled deeply, with a single step, he vanished, appearing a few meters high in the sky, his hands spread apart like a god waiting to give judgment to a mortal.

Large fireballs appeared in the sky, each fireball had rocks in them. They started descending toward Euric who was already dumbfounded by what he was witnessing.

The fireballs looked like a meteor as they streaked quickly, crashing straight into the arena.

Euric managed to regain himself quickly before running as fast as he could, presently, he wanted nothing to do with the arena. He was a hundred percent certain that if he dared to block that attack he would definitely die.

"Meteor descent," Grey mumbled gently.

Crash! Boom!

A huge explosion occurred in the arena, with Grey watching over the arena from the sky. His face didn't show any expression.

The crowd all stared at the young man who was floating mid-air, stunned by his abilities. Never in their wildest dreams did they think they would experience a day when an Origin Plane Elementalist would awe them with his strength. Even those in the Sage Plane were staring at Grey.

The explosion soon died down, and the empty arena appeared in front of the crowd.

"Huh? Where's Euric? Don't tell me he's dead,"

"Look!"

Someone pointed towards where the man hosting the event was standing, beside him was Euric who was perfectly fine, other than the look of disbelief in his eyes, he was okay.

The man hosting the event stared at Grey as he gently landed on the ground. He couldn't hide the shock in his eyes.

'Could he be one of those geniuses from high-grade Factions who came out to train?' He asked himself.

He wasn't the only one who thought of this, the representatives from the Abyss Faction, as well as some of the people in the crowd also thought of this. Given the strength Grey displayed, he was too powerful to be in a Faction as low as the Abyss Faction, and the Abyss Faction was one of the few low-grade Factions that wasn't far from upgrading to a mid-grade Faction.

….

Back in the arena.

Grey stood in the arena calmly, looking in Euric's direction.

"Guess I win," He said softly.

Euric nodded, before walking back to his seat. He didn't look angered or dejected, only a look of resolution appeared on his face.

The representatives from the Abyss Faction nodded in approval when he saw Euric's reaction to his defeat. This was what it meant if one wanted to be a powerhouse in the future, it's not about losing, but your reaction towards your loss.

Some people would be devastated because of a defeat since they've been dominating those in the same stage for so long, but Euric wasn't like those people.

"You should focus on improving yourself, those geniuses at the top are even stronger than he is," An old man in the special area where the Abyss Faction was sitting said to Euric.

"Senior, is there a chance he's from a high-grade faction?" Euric asked as he took his seat.

"No, if you fought against one of those geniuses from high-grade Factions, you'd be dead within two moves," The old man replied.

Euric turned to look at Grey, shocked that even with the power Grey just displayed, he still wouldn't be on par with those geniuses from high-grade Factions.

"They must be monstrous," He muttered to himself.

….

"You can head back to your seat, if the representatives want to speak with you, they'll send for you," The man hosting the event said to Grey when he realized he wasn't moving.

"Uhmm… sorry, but can I challenge someone in the Overlord Plane?" Grey asked.

He still hasn't gotten the battle he wished for. This was a very valuable opportunity to test his strength and it isn't a deathmatch, so he wanted to use it properly.

The man was slightly taken aback when he heard Grey's request, he didn't know what to say. With no choice, he turned to look in the direction of the representatives from the Abyss Faction, they were the ones in charge of this event.

A young lady stood up, walking in the direction of the arena.

When the crowd saw her, they gasped in shock. This was the same lady who fought against the man in the Overlord Plane previously and won within a short time.

"Why's she walking towards the arena? Could it be that she wants to challenge him?"

"Are you dumb? Didn't you hear him requesting to challenge someone in the Overlord Plane?"

….

Grey watched the girl coming, and his expression turned to one of seriousness. He knew he couldn't take this girl for granted.. From her previous battle, he knew she was someone who liked ending her battles quickly.
