Chapter 268 - Peak Battle Part 2

"Such an amazing team play." Sheira began her explanation. "Both teams are trying to defend their teammates while attacking their opponents at the same time. Seeing how both teams can react to each other just shows how high their level as an individual is.

"Still, what makes me curious is the blessing of Morgana Le Fay, a powerful sorcerer. In her legend, it's stated that she is also an excellent swordsman despite her extraordinary magic.

"It's stated that Zara is a Magician. So, this must mean she is trying to hide her real power! Even I am not sure who will win in this battle!"

And the one who experienced that power for the first time was Mo Ning. She also had heard about Morgana being an excellent swordsman.

"Hu…" Mo Ning took a deep breath while trying to get another surge of strength to push back Zara.

However, Zara already leaped first to avoid Mo Ning while glancing to the left.

The latter quickly turned around as she thought either Zhong Li or Clark came to this place, only to feel excruciating pain that jolted her mind right after.

"Kh!" Mo Ning lowered her vision and saw Zara's foot on her waist before getting blown away. She almost forgot the fact that Morgana was an honorable swordsman in the past but soon turned into a cruel witch. Of course, she would know how to play a trick or two.

All of them had been using their Awareness to conceal their own presence so as to not get tracked by their opponents' Awareness… Even if they had enough strength to sense them, they needed to consider the speed of the battle and how powerful their opponent was, making them unable to focus on their Awareness.

When she was in the air, Clark appeared with both giant gauntlets, preparing to take her down with a single strike.

Fortunately, Zhong Li had come to stop Clark by smashing his gauntlets with his hammer, albeit this was Zara and Clark's plan all along.

Their target was not Mo Ning but Zhong Li. The moment Clark received the attack, he tried to grab Zhong Li's hand to prevent him from going away while Zara appeared next to him.

Unexpectedly, a smile appeared on Zhong Li's face as his hand slipped past Clark and struck Zara with his hammer. His expression was filled with fighting intent as his eyes turned bloodshot.

"!!!" Zara widened her eyes and struck back the hammer, only to find her strength couldn't go against Zhong Li. She was launched into the air while finding Mo Ning, who was in the same predicament as her earlier, had already recovered.

On her hand was not a sword but a bow. She pulled a green-colored bow and aimed at Clark.

"A general should be able to wield anything." Mo Ning's eyes turned sharp as she released the arrows.

Clark gritted his teeth and turned around, trying to use his right hand to block the arrow while his other hand got stopped by Zhong Li.

Clark had used his power to freeze Zhong Li's hand, but the latter withstood the cold temperature while his lightning shattered all ice that appeared on his and Clark's hand.

The clash between the two created a powerful shock wave that slightly disrupted the arrow's movement.

But as one would expect from Mu Guiying, the arrow continued on its path and flew straight to Clark's stomach without getting stopped by Clark's hand.

"You are not the only one who wants to win." Zhong Li sneered as he raised his hand, trying to punch Clark to end him.

However, Clark shouted, "Zara. Use it on me!"

Zara noticed the graveness of his request, but they might indeed need to do it in order to win. She raised her hand as black energy began to surround her hand. "Madness!"

Clark's body jolted as his eyes turned bloodshot, releasing all the killing intent he had. He seemed to feel no pain from the wound on his stomach and exerted a more powerful strength to flip Zhong Li with his robotic arm. "Haaaa!"

Zhong Li widened his eyes as his vision flipped. He still raised both hands because there was another fist coming straight at his chest.

Bam.

Clark punched Zhong Li's two hands and created a small crater on the ground.

"Kh!" Zhong Li gritted his teeth as his organs felt the pressure of that impact.

"Get away!" Mo Ning leaped to him, but she soon saw Zara did the same.

Both of them swung at the same time, but their target was different. Mo Ning waved her sword to slice Clark's neck, but Zara aimed at Zhong Li instead of protecting her teammates.

There was one thing Mo Ning didn't know about the skill Zara used earlier. It was the same skill that Morgana Le Fay used to brainwash people.

Zara hypnotized Clark's mind to feel no pain, utilize his muscle more proficiently, and draw his latent strength. This might injure Clark a bit, but they had brought their own doctor that would be able to take care of this kind of injury once. If it were twice, Clark's body would start to break down because it was already beyond human's capacity.

And with this power, Clark reacted to Mo Ning's sword as he tried to catch the sword with his other hand.

In the end, Mo Ning lost this psychological battle as she retracted her sword and used that swing to strike Zara's sword, saving Zhong Li in the process.

Unfortunately, this also resulted in Clark having enough time to punch her stomach and blow her away.

Bam.

Mo Ning crashed to the wall, but she still smiled when she saw someone had risen from the ground. "Show them your might."

"I won't let this end yet!" Zhong Li shouted as he summoned the same hammer that destroyed Clark's icy tornado. His drum was already planted on the ground as a support, so it was waiting for him.

"!!!" Clark widened his eyes and thought with sweats covering his forehead. "He is using that big hammer to hit the drum? The power produced by the two—"

He couldn't imagine what would happen as he quickly regrouped with Zara, preparing to take on everything that came their way, albeit it was too late.

"Hammer of Judgment!"

Bam.
