Chapter 490 Overestimating Defense

Chapter 490 Overestimating Defense

Onlookers were thrilled by the battle going on. A first-year student faced off against a top-second-year student after attending the academy for two and a half months.

If it was someone else, he might have been called out, but the student who was fighting was famous. Blue Skull was the name he got; he had been in the news from the beginning.

He had impressed everyone and proved himself to be a talented student. Every time his name is heard, it comes with something uncommon.

This time also, many believed that he would surprise them, but not many were sure about the result of the battle.

In the battle ring, endless chains shining in purple appeared. Covered in a layer of ice, and purple fire on the tips of the dagger in the front.

However, the opponent was not something to be taken lightly. He moved swiftly, his spear changing shape and size and deflecting all of them.

His speed was phenomenal, and his feet were covered in a green glow. It was as if he were traversing with gales.

A spirit creature of the Gale Serpent appeared behind him. It moved with him, making his moves fluid and faster. Each of his blows blasted the ice layer surrounding the chains.

'Crack'

'Clang,' he parried the spear strike that came at him.

Both were fighting using their all; tattoos activated in their bodies, enhancing their physical strength.

'Boom'

Shockwaves appeared as their weapons met; 'Swish' multiple chakras appeared out of nowhere and struck the opponent.

He tried to defend, but he could still not dodge them completely.

'Thud,' in a fury, hit the floor below him with his spear's end.

A green-colored circular area appeared around him. Inside it, winds rushed, tearing away anything that came into contact.

The snake curled along the boundary of the zone and became bigger and more accurate. The eyes of the spearsman shone green as he approached the opponent.

The storm around him pushed back chains that approached him. He entered the body of the snake and moved at breakneck speed.

The snake appeared around Rishi, surrounding him. He was at the center of the storm, facing the opponent, who had a smirk on his face.

"You can't use your zone inside this zone; what will you do now?" He taunted Rishi.

Ignoring him, he faced an assault of spells thrown at him from different angles. He dodged it and easily evaded it. "It's useless."

His spear pointed at Rishi, and countless wind blades approached him. He activated frost armor, but 'Crack' it broke apart, and countless wind blades hit him.

His Shadow Combat suit stopped most, but some could bypass him.

'Bleed'

Minor cuts appeared on his body, which made the opponent's smile bigger.

However, that smile disappeared when he saw that not a drop of blood came out. A green glow surrounded all the wounds, and they started healing rapidly.

"That might be true, but who told you I needed Zone to defeat you?" Rishi said it for the first time, his cold voice echoing in the head of the opponent.

The next moment, Rishi's eyes shone in a purple glow. Countless chains appeared behind him and joined together, creating a snake-like figure.

He created a hand sign, and numerous purple patterns appeared on it and started shining.

"Ice Enhancement"—the words have just left his mouth—that a chill gale appeared and covered it in ice.

Purple fire appeared in the place of its eyes as its head moved and it hissed. This was a new combination that Rishi had come up with. While using Rune was also a recent idea,

"You think you can mimic the power of my Elemental Spirit Beast by just making it look similar?" He pointed his spear at Rishi.

'Hisss, ' the gale Serpent appeared behind him, hissing at Rishi, sending chills down the backs of everyone.

"We will see that," said Rishi as he laughed.

Both serpents clashed with each other, and the clashes between them created shockwaves. Gale Serpent appeared to be winning the clash.

They constructed each other, but everything changed when Shadow Chain Cobra opened its mouth and bit the opponent's body with its sharp fangs surrounded by a purple luster.

Small purple veins scattered all over the Gale serpent-like poison. It moved back and slashed the opponent with its sharp tail, dealing massive damage.

Below, Rishi struggled to face the opponent inside his zone, but he waited patiently. The moment he got the opening, his eyes met with the opposite.

A crimson glow appeared in his eyes that caused shivers to appear in the opponent's body, but it was only for a moment. He recovered, but his opponent was nowhere to be seen.

Three tall black pillars appeared around him. Purple runes on them started shining.

He felt like he was carrying a mountain on his back; his knees started bending. He tried to use the dash skill and escape but soon discovered this skill blocked it.

Chains appeared from below and held him. He tried to move but found himself being sown down. His defense skills also seemed to have waned.

Rishi combined his chakram technique and umbral surge, his new technique, giving him adaptive penetration for each successful hit.

Nine Chakrams covered in Ice and Aura started dancing on the pillars and moving at a speed hard to sense for most.

They chipped away at the defenses and armor of the opponent with each attack, making it helpless. The Gale Serpent wanted to intercede, but the Shadow Cobra held it back.

'Crack'

The defensive spell of the opposition was destroyed.

'Cut'

'Swish'

Cuts started appearing all over his body. He cried in agony, trying to struggle, but he could not do anything.

His most valuable skills became useless; even with them, he could not do much against this type of attack.

However, his willpower and body were able to persist in this torture. The moment the three pillars disappeared, he appeared again, covered in blood.

His clothes torn from many places, he still released a battle cry and charged at Rishi, his spear lit up in a green aura that flickered like the flame of a candle in a storm.

It was not hard to guess that it was his last resort. His spear moved, carrying a storm with it the moment he thrust it.

'Boom'

An explosion took place.

A shield of ice had appeared before him, but it turned into powder.

The spear moved further and struck the armor of ice. 'Crack'

It was blasted, too. Its power was severely reduced, but it was enough to peep through the combat armor and hit Rishi's chest.

'Vomit'

He coughed blood, but instead of satisfaction, there was an expression of horror in the eyes of the attacker.

It was not because of the fatigue; the reason was the boy looking at him with a smile on his face.

"You could have dodged that," asked the attacker with shaking hands.

Rishi nodded. "It looks like I overestimated my defenses."

He didn't even release a slight groan, as he removed the spear. A green glow slowly surrounded him again, and the wound healed.

The opponent sighed, shaking his head and saying, "I surrender."
