In the battle ring, Austin was up against Carolyn, whose main weapon was a harp. Right now she was using the Omen Array. It was a sound wave skill that combined music and vital energy to combat. The musical notes emerging from the harp formed a giant topping of 300 feet. The giant took a motion towards Austin whilst creating an ambiance to express strength.
This amused Austin. He thought, 'Wow! That is samazing sound wave skill she is using. Moments ago, she controlled nine lions and now this giant." Evidently, the giant had magnanimous amount of force and energy. Austin did not have tto think about anything else. He had to fight against it. His level 7 sword intent turned into seven streaks of sword radiance.
Then those streaks of sword radiance flew towards the giant like beautiful shooting stars.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Went the streaks! Austin was now controlling the streaks of the sword radiance so that he could cut the giant's huge body into pieces and finish it.
"Argh!" roared the giant.
It seemed that the giant knew what the sword radiance was doing and that it was fighting against the enemy. So it quickly created smagical clouds which tried to wrap up the streaks of sword radiance.
This sudden change of situation took Carolyn by surprise. She was unaware of Austin's mastery over sword intent.
Earlier when Austin fought Braxton, he found out that his level 7 sword intent was nothing compared to Braxton's level 7 spear intent. But it was during this fight that Austin had learned a lot about sword intent. He knew exactly when and how to use sword intent to exploit the maximum power. This was why his level 7 sword intent had this mastery and power than what it used to be during the battle with Braxton.
While the sword intent dealt with giant, Austin moved to the left side of the giant using Wind-commanding Skill, leaving an afterimage. Raising his fist, he threw a powerful punch at the giant. His fist's strength reached to 15, 000 pounds now.
"Argh!" thundered the giant.
It raised its big foot to land on Austin. The foot was naturally humongous, and if by chance Austin fell under it, he would turn into minced meat for sure.
Boom! Without giving a second chance to Austin, the giant's foot landed on him with a loud noise. The impact of the attack shook the whole battle ring vigorously. Carolyn witnessed the whole episode with her own eyes.
She was extremely excited to see this and smiled broadly. She had been under a lot of pressure after Austin managed to break her Nine-lion Magical Sound Array.
She had already resorted to the final skill she could use, and that was the Omen Array. It was the strongest sound wave skill she mastered, and it required a lot of vital energy. Had Austin broken the Omen Array, she would have to submit and accept the defeat.
Surprisingly, Carolyn saw the giant effortlessly stepping on Austin. She was aware of how powerful this giant was. She was sure that Austin was either dead or severely injured under the huge foot.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBut, her joy didn't last long.
Her facial expression changed tically, and she couldn't believe what she saw in front of her eyes.
Austin was alive, and he rose from behind the giant. He jumped to his feet and punched the giant in its back with all his might. The impact was so great that the giant stumbled forward before steadying itself.
'No way! How's that possible? | saw with my own eyes that Austin was squished under the foot of the giant.
Wait a minute! Is it Austin's afterimage?' she pondered on the current incident.
Just as suddenly as Austin cback to life, he disappeared again as if he were a ghost. He kept on hailing punches in the giant and repeated the act several times. No one could discriminate Austin from his afterimage.
Meanwhile, he used his level 7 sword intent to cut the giant's great body.
With his full physical strength, Wind-commanding Skill, and level 7 sword intent, Austin successfully brought the giant under control. The giant gradually retreated one step after another.
Slowly, the giant's body faded and becmore and more transparent. The magic clouds around it also got thinner. It was apparent that Carolyn's vital energy to support the giant was getting consumed quickly.
Carolyn's face was pale as a ghost. She kept her mouth shut and swept her fingers over the strings of the harp, determined to not give up. Many musical notes flew out from the harp and melted into the giant's body to bring back its immense energy.
But Carolyn knew that she was making a futile effort as it was evident that the giant was almost gone. It looked like she was trying to put out a burning cartload of faggots with a cup of water.
After about half an hour, the giant's body looked terribly transparent. Eventually, after Austin's final blow, the giant exploded into million pieces suddenly. Countless musical notes spread in all directions and disappeared in thin air.
"Argh!" As soon as the giant exploded, Carolyn spat out a mouthful of blood. Her face had lost all color. She had used up all her vital energy force, and suffered from serious internal injury. Flabbergasted, she stood where she was, staring at Austin with terror.
"Clearly you lost and | won," Austin let out indifferently. Then he turned around and walked off the battle ring.
Austin could have killed her easily. But he took pleasure in being a gentleman, and didn't want to kill a defenseless woman in order to show his chivalry.
Carolyn, however, felt an anguish in the turn of events. Instead, her eyes were full of resentment. She secretly adjusted the direction of her harp.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh...
The harp sent out more than ten streaks of black light as thin as ox hair. They flew straight at Austin's back. The sounds were so faint that people could hardly hear it.
Austin was still leisurely strolling ahead with his back to Carolyn.
In the audience, people observed what was happening. They were left shell-shocked and couldn't help but feel bad for Austin.
'This woman is as poisonous as a snake!" everyone thought at the stime.
Austin's heroic plan to spare the woman's life and leave the ring would probably be the end. The woman, instead of being grateful, grabbed this opportunity to kill Austin. Judging from the speed and strength of the black light, no one believed that Austin could survive this time.
What was more eye catching was that the color of the light was pitch black. People instantly realized that these streaks of black light were highly poisonous. They had the potential to kill Austin the moment they reached him.
No one thought he could dodge the black light.
"Austin had reached the third round. | was sure that he was going to enter top 50. But things change so suddenly. | didn't expect him to be killed by such a venomous woman. What a pity!" someone exclaimed.
Many people thought it was sad, as Austin was doomed to be killed after sparing someone's life.
"Hah! Austin, you deserve it!" said speople excitedly as they took great pleasure in Austin's misfortune. They even clapped their hands incessantly, especially Dwayne and Abbott. They were thrilled to see this actually happen.
"What a terrible thing for such a talented young man!" lamented Emperor Arthur as he shook his head in despair.
However, when everyone was sure that Austin would be killed, he himself shook his head with great resignation.
"I didn't attempt to kill you. Why did you do this to me?" Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh...
The streaks of black light punctured Austin's body and kept flying forward as if they didn't hit anything.
‘What? What is going on?' Everyone stared in utter confusion.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter being perforated, Austin's body trembled a bit and vanished off in the air.
Afterimage! It was Austin's afterimage! Yet again Carolyn was defeated by Austin's skills.
In reality, with his spiritual sense, Austin realized beforehand what Carolyn was planning to do. The moment he left the ring, he sensed that Carolyn adjusted her harp to attack him. He instantly took the required measures.
Using the Wind-commanding Skill, Austin cover to her.
Austin could reach a distance of 200 meters with just one step. He was about 150 meters away from Carolyn. As a result, he stood next to her at just the blink of an eye.
"You asked for this!" Austin said coldly. It was then that Carolyn noticed him right next to her.
"No..." she shouted shrilly in terror.
However, Austin had no more compassion left for this woman and he threw a punch at her head, smashing it into little pieces. Carolyn's head exploded as if it were a watermelon, and her brains scattered everywhere.
There was not a single noise in the audience. Everyone silently witnessed the horrific attack.
Everyone was taken aback by the scene.
However, no one had any reason to blAustin, as Carolyn instigated it and dug her own grave.
"No! Carolyn!" shrieked a man in the audience. His eyes were burning in fury.
"Austin, you are a dead man!" he cursed through his gritted teeth.
Austin nonchalantly went back to where his companions were waiting.
"Austin!" Dewey ctowards Austin with a flattering smile.
"You were amazing! Austin, | didn't expect you to be this strong and ruthless. Austin, you are my boss from now on honestly.
| really admire you..." "Just stop it, Dewey. You are flatteringway too much," said Austin as he tried to pull away from him. He felt a little uncomfortable by his flattery.
"Austin, you really are something!" Maria was full of awe as she stared at Austin with admiration.
