Chapter 340 The Finals For Formations Masters 3
When the two acted almost simultaneously, they attacked each other, throwing their offensive items.
This time Lothur's opponent was fast enough to react in time to his initial move, so he did not get an advantage in that initial second of attack.
And just like his opponent, Lothur raised his defensive shield as he reacted to the enemy movement, already activating his shield with defensive formations to protect him.
Lothur had to admit. The enemy was more skilled than him at spiritual formations, and in normal situations, he would have to lose this match. Fortunately, he had a Soul Bone with an extremely advantageous ability for such situations!
Because he could see the type of formation of his opponent, Lothur made the best formations he could think of to defend against and attack the enemy in the time he had.
He was unsure if he would succeed since that opponent seemed to know already inscriptions that he had never seen. But even so, his initial disadvantage was diminished immensely because of his visual ability!
Hence, when both attacks were within two meters of each other, the formations activated to their maximum, acting against their respective targets.
The defense of Lothur's opponent had a weakness for liquids. So his attack was focused on this elemental nature.
When his object thrown in the direction of that blond individual activated, such a thing expanded like a tiny star before dying. Then it shrank in size, forming countless 'pockets' of water in the air.
When this happened, the spiritual energy flowing through that formation connected to these pockets of water and directed a powerful jet toward the opponent's chest.
Seeing this, the young man from the Waldauer family frowned, hardly believing that his opponent had just launched his weakness against him!
But not only did he realize this. The coroner Klossner, who was watching the match from the VIP area of local guests, noticed that Lothur had repeated such a thing in every other match.
'This young man has managed to use attacks contrary to his opponents' defenses in his four matches today... Is this his luck? Or perhaps he has studied his opponents well?' He tried to understand the situation, noting how above-average Lothur must be.
'No, maybe that's a skill? He could see what his opponent was doing?' This man was intelligent, so he quickly identified the most plausible justification for this situation.
"Interesting." He muttered, pondering the possibility of meeting this son-in-law of the Frost family.
He was a friend of that family but had never interacted with Lothur. So seeing Viktoria's husband doing so well, he could not help but become interested in this figure.
But while he watched that curious situation, this relevant figure in Peters City did not ignore the attack launched against Lothur.
As the enemy was about to suffer from Lothur's offensive formation, his attack activated, throwing blue flames in Lothur's direction.
Seeing this and still holding his shield over his body, Lothur noticed his defensive formation reacting to the opponent's attack. Such a thing suddenly transformed from an ordinary round piece of metal to an item that seemed to be made of some kind of fragile material.
But Lothur's shield was not fragile. It was just the transformation of an item capable of burning for longer than normal.
That is, Lothur knew that his opponent's attack would be the kind where the flames would do the most damage to him. So he had used something that could 'entertain' those flames, forcing such a thing to burn the transformation of his shield instead of ignoring such a thing and hitting him.
But while his opponent suffered from the powerful waterjet attack, Lothur's shield could not consume all the flame thrown by his opponent's offensive formation. When such a thing reached its limit, colored flames on that shield spread out from the sides of it and went towards his body!
Sssss!
"Ouch!"
Finally, Lothur let go of his shield and took a few steps back, quickly taking off his clothes as he felt the enemy flames on his body.
At the same time, Lothur's opponent had already lost his shield, as such a thing was destroyed, and he was struck by the remnant of the previous liquid attack.
"Ahhhh!" He cried out in pain as he knelt on the ground and put his arms around his abdomen, feeling as if he had been kicked several times.
And while he tasted blood in his mouth, given the internal bleeding he suffered in this attack, Lothur finally managed to get rid of the enemy flames.
"Ouch!" He clenched his fists tightly and felt the burns on his body, which at the moment only had his underwear around it.
His burns spread from his face to his two arms, back, chest, and abdomen. They were extremely red, which was already making people, particularly women, put their hands over their mouths.
Meanwhile, the men who hated Lothur smiled, feeling that this young man had finally gotten what he deserved.
The judge looked at both sides and could not determine the winner of the match. So he looked at the judging committee for any ties and waited for the result.
"Well, I think Lothur will lose this match..." One of them was going to say, as they felt that the one who lost the most in this match had been this young man.
It was hard to judge the damage suffered by the other candidate. So they could only consider someone with such visible effects as that one at a disadvantage.
Lothur also seemed to be suffering almost as much as his opponent, so they favored the person from the Waldauer family.
However, just as they were about to say the result of this match, Lothur's Super Regeneration came into play.
When such a thing activated, the burns around his body, blisters, and any damage to his skin began to reverse as if time was turning back.
Everyone in that place saw such a thing, many with open mouths and wide eyes. They were incredulous at such a monstrous regenerative ability.
"What?" One of the referee committee members next to that platform stood up from his seat and exclaimed, watching the wounds on Lothur's body quickly disappear.
Even the chief referee of the Province Conference saw that, and his eyes narrowed. "What a monstrous ability! That's why he's so strong." He said to his group. "With something like that, he can train until he falls every day and gets the best results!"
It was well known that deadly battles with risks of serious injury were the best for teaching cultivators to become better. But most could not 'train' like that since their injuries would limit them.
Therefore, someone with the skill that Lothur seemed to have had a tremendous competitive advantage against his opponents.
And seeing that, someone from the Waldauer family could not keep quiet. "That's cheating! He's using skills unrelated to the profession of formations masters to lessen the damage to his body!"
