Chapter 337 Duel ( 2 )
The students inside the Assembly Hall were filled with anticipation and excitement as the two second-year students stood on opposite sides of the stage. They were about to start a duel, and perhaps, this duel would determine the strongest second-year student right now.
Lisa clasped her hands as she waited for the battle to start.
"Don't worry. Vale would win." Aubrey said with a smile as she looked at Lisa, who seemed to be very nervous.
Lisa nodded at this as she also felt that Vale had a higher chance of winning.
Soon, Vale and Leo walked to the center of the stage, where they faced each other with a distance of about ten meters between them.
They stared at each other intently as they prepared for their duel.
Leo felt a surge of adrenaline and excitement running through his veins. He knew that Vale was a formidable opponent who had defeated other students with his unusual fighting method. Vale had even defeated a Slender Zombie, so he knows that he has to be wary of Vale's strength.
In the meantime, Vale does not care about Leo's motives or feelings.
He only cared about winning the duel…
'Should I even use a Dark Spell?' Vale mused to himself.
After some hesitation, he felt that he did not need any Spells or weapons to deal with this guy. He only needed his speed and strength, which should've exceeded the limits of many Knight Arts Practitioners.
Vale smiled slightly, as he waited for the signal to start.
Leo didn't know why Vale smiled like that, but he felt a surge of anger and hatred burning in his chest. It felt as if he was looking down on him.
Leo looked at Lisa and muttered softly. "I will show you that I'm better than this guy…"
Many didn't hear his words, but Vale didn't miss that…
'Alright… You need to be beaten up.' Vale thought to himself.
As soon as Cyrus announced the start of the battle, Leo smirked wickedly and activated his Dark Flame Spell.
He raised his right hand, which was covered by his black glove. The glove was actually a magical item that enhanced his Dark Flame Spell by at least 10 to 15 percent. With the help of his glove, it allowed him to freely manipulate Dark Flames within his Magic Zone with minimal effort.
Leo felt the dark flames coursing through his veins as he waited for Vale to make his move…
Seeing that Vale was also waiting, Leo no longer hesitated as he made the first move.
A ball of Dark Flame shot out of his hand, flying towards Vale at high speed.
Vale reacted quickly, dodging the Spell by moving to the left.
He sprinted towards Leo, closing the distance between them.
Leo was not surprised by Vale's dodge. He had expected him to be fast and agile since he had witnessed Vale's fight against the Slender Zombie.
He had also prepared for his close-range attack.
He again pointed his right hand at Vale and shouted, "Dark Flame Wave!"
A wave of dark flames erupted from his hand, sweeping across the stage. This Spell was still the Dark Flame Spell, but because of the Mystical Glove he was wearing, he could change its form according to his desire.
Vale saw the wave of dark flames coming at him. He knew he could not dodge the attack this time and had to face it head-on.
'His Dark Flame doesn't have a cooldown?' Vale felt a bit surprised, but that was it. He wasn't worried at all.
He gathered his strength and jumped over the wave of Dark Flames, landing behind Leo.
He swung his fist at Leo's head, aiming for a knockout blow.
"Y-you!"
Leo sensed Vale's fist coming at him. He knew he could not dodge the attack, so he had to counter it with his own attack.
He turned his head slightly and opened his mouth, spitting out a stream of dark flames at Vale's face!
Whooshh~
'What? That's possible? Is this better than the Cursed Breath?!' Vale thought to himself as he felt the heat of the Dark Flames on his He raised his arm and slapped the stream of Dark Flames away from his face using his left palm.
face. He could avoid or endure it, but he decided to deflect it with his hand.
He raised his arm and slapped the stream of Dark Flames away from his face using his left palm.
Vale then continued his fist at Leo's head, hoping to end the duel with one hit.
Bam!
Leo felt the impact and shock of Vale's fist on his head.
'Y-you!' Leo couldn't believe it. His face was filled with indignation as he looked at Vale.
He still has two other spells he could use and two more Mystical Items in his possession that he hadn't activated yet!
However, despite all of his preparations, he still fell to the ground, unconscious and defeated.
Thud!
Vale stepped back as he waved his hand in his face… It seemed that the Dark Flame Breath was still on his face, giving off some weird scent.
"Whoa~"
The audience gasped and cheered as they witnessed the end of the duel.
"Awesome! I knew it!" Chad said with a laugh as soon as he saw Leo dropping to the ground.
Aubrey nodded at this as she looked at Vale in a new light. "How cruel… You didn't even use your Dark Spell. Why'd you have to disrespect him like that?" It was followed by a chuckle as she couldn't help but find this duel funny.
Vale smiled as he looked at Professor Cyrus, who nodded and announced. "The winner is Vale Chambers!"
Except for Leo Blaze's friends, the others clapped and cheered. They congratulated Vale for his fantastic performance.
However, Neil didn't like how Vale had won the battle.
"Professor, please rethink your decision. This is a battle between two Spellcasters, however, Vale didn't fight like a Spellcaster! He must be disqualified!" Neil shouted.
He wasn't sure how the others would react, but luckily, Leo's friends started chiming in and raising the same concern.
They looked at Neil gratefully as they requested the Professor to disqualify Vale and give the victory to Leo.
