Chapter 280 - Injury

Seeing the movement from Clark, Phyrill and Laust quickly leaped to the side as if inviting their opponents to follow them.

Laura and Scarlet knew that these two were trying to separate them from Clark and might utilize some chance to ambush him.

Even so, they still followed them carefully. As long as they maintained their position between their enemy and Clark, these two shouldn't be able to help Alea.

On the contrary, Clark raised his hands and formed a vortex of ice particles on the gap between hands, leaving a frozen trail on the ground. He then released the attack at once as it formed into a tornado.

"Ice Blast."

Alea frowned as she realized an attack like this was only to force her to move and the real attack would appear soon. Hence, she sucked the air before releasing a roar. "Great Lion Roar."

The sound wave coming from the roar blasted the ice particles to the side, freezing the ground.

Alea ran forward as soon as the way was open, but he soon saw Clark using another attack right upon her.

"I believe you have the power to destroy that attack instead of dodging it." Clark smiled and placed his hand on the ground.

Alea's Awareness sensed something was moving on the ground and jumped into the air, witnessing a huge spike emerge from the ground to pierce her. But she raised her vision right after and saw five diamond-shaped ice flying toward her from above.

It turned out the attack was just a simple distraction, so she leaped into the air.

"Enchant Blade."

She slashed her sword horizontally, hitting all the ices with a single swing. Luckily, the Enchant Blade prevented the ice from forming on her sword, so Alea could release another attack.

Seeing Clark was about to release another attack, Alea waved her hand and released a phoenix.

"Ice Mirror." Clark also summoned multiple ice spikes that joined together, becoming his shield.

The phoenix hit the Ice Mirror and exploded, engulfing the shield with its extraordinary flame. However, Alea's phoenix also ended up vanishing, leaving only a pool of water as the result of their clash.

"Inch Slash."

Alea had fallen down on top of Clark and waved down her sword, using the momentum, weight, and gravity to enhance her attack.

"Tch." Clark clicked his tongue and punched Alea's blade.

However, his hand was stopped before he even hit Alea's blade while his ice began to freeze this invisible attack.

The shock wave emitted from this clash carried Clark's ice, making the air chilly. Even those on the sides felt this cold air as they took a glance at their condition.

Bam.

The conclusion came in a sudden as Alea pushed Clark back.

Continuing her movement, she waved her sword upward and shot out a crescent-shaped red fire to Clark. "Flamming Ge-Sword."

"…" Clark grabbed the flame without flinching before freezing it and throwing it to the ground to shatter.

"Grand Burst." Alea summoned multiple explosions in succession. Meanwhile, Clark countered it by creating a small wind that carried his Ice. "Ice Gale."

The two clashed and neutralized each other again.

"I thought you were stronger than this," said Alea with a smile before cladding her sword with flame.

Clark smiled back and jumped forward, sending a punch right on her face. "Test it then."

"Melting Sword." Alea struck his hands, albeit the fire couldn't do anything to him because of his powerful ice.

Alea kept hitting him with her sword a few times, but none of the attacks dealt actual damage, so she decided to step up a little bit. "Herculean Strike."

She released all her might in one strike and struck Clark from above.

Clark furrowed his eyebrows and avoided it by taking a few steps back, letting the sword hit the ground, turning the arena into another crater.

Clark and Alea lost their balance for a second due to them dropping to the lower level.

After that, Alea marched forward while waving her sword.

Clark did the same, but Alea's movement turned out to be a fake as she suddenly came to a halt while pointing her left palm at Clark. "Splash Explosion."

A small red ball appeared in front of Clark's belly as the latter quickly covered it with his hands.

Boom.

"Kh." Clark clenched his teeth as his hands felt numb after taking the explosion. The claws didn't have any scratch on them, but the impact truly numbed his hands.

Even so, Clark didn't show any expression to everybody else as only Alea could see through the slight change of his expression. As expected from a man who took the entire lightning strike from Zhong Li, he was indeed strong.

"What is this… Alea and Clark can't hurt each other. Their elements are the opposite of each other, so they are canceling each other. However, Clark seems to be holding back a bit because his blessing should have enough power to overpower Alea's fire for a moment. Or does Clark have another plan?" Sheira tried to rile up the audience.

They didn't know who would win because both of them seemed to be equal.

Hearing that question, Alea couldn't help but smile. She said inwardly, 'No, that's not it. He may have hidden it this whole time, but I can see his facial expression clearly. He is not holding back. Even Theo can't escape from my eyes and choose to let me read his expression before using it to his advantage.

'There's no way Clark has enough ability to cover his facial expression. Hence, there is only one more possibility…' Alea remembered what she wanted to say before the match started. Although she ended up stopping, she just wanted to confirm it with her own eyes in this arena.

And with all these exchanges, she had gathered enough information to gain a massive advantage. She smiled and wondered, 'What will Theo do if he knows that Clark hasn't recovered from his injury? His strength is probably sixty to seventy percent of his previous power…'

"It's time." Alea smiled, waved her sword to the ground and created a small spark that soon turned into a nine-headed hydra, flying to him. "Third Labour. Devouring Hydra."
