Chapter 1392 Don't Give Her So Much Time

Outside the arena.

Grey took Flint away from the platform and watched him drop down to his knees, he was exhausted.

He was about to help out when the Old man appeared, he took a glance at Grey, and then at Flint. He picked Flint up and took him away, before heading back to the arena.

Grey found the Old man's behavior strange, but he didn't think too much about it. He wondered if he should go back to the arena or not. If he could stay somewhere that was peaceful, he would be able to study the array formation, but his friends were still in there.

From his speculation and the sound of fighting ongoing, he could tell that Klaus was fighting with someone.

"I better go back before they do something bad."

He didn't rush to go back, he was going through formation as he headed back. It hadn't been long he acquired the formation and he didn't get the chance to go through it before being challenged to a battle by Flint. Now that he wasn't going to fight anymore, he decided to check it out as he headed back.

By the time he got back to the arena, Klaus was no longer on the platform, rather, it was Alice who was fighting against someone at the Peak. This person isn't as powerful as the likes of Flint and Aries, but he was still a Peak Elemental Venerable.

Grey walked over to Klaus and Reynolds, "Why did you let her fight that guy?"

"Oh, you're back." Reynolds said, he looked at the platform and said, "She should be fine. Besides, she knows her limits."

Grey nodded and didn't say anything else.

Grey's appearance drew the attention of most of the people present in the arena, he was the reason they all came here in the first place. Seeing Grey and no sight of Flint, they were a little curious, but there was no way for them to confirm what happened. All they were certain of is that there was no way Grey was going to kill Flint in the Phoenix Faction.

Everyone soon turned their attention back to Alice and the young man who were fighting. The battle was heated up and the young man seemed to have the advantage from the start of the battle.

Alice wasn't making use of her Seelie from the start, rather, she was trying her natural strength. She was repeatedly on the back foot as the young man overwhelmed her.

Her opponent was a Dual Elementalist who had both the fire and wind element. This made him very dangerous thanks to his speed. The reason Alice was still in the fight was due to her lightning element which increases her speed as well.

The duo were flashing through the platform as they battled. Even though the young man had the advantage, Alice was not giving up without a fight.

Bang!

Alice was hit by an attack and was sent flying. She crashed into the platform, and the young man continued his assault. He could tell she was special just like her friends, so he wanted to end the battle before it got too late.

Alice, covered with lightning, shot up. But she was met with a powerful tornado which came from above, pushing her back to the ground.

Her body glowed with a bright light and she merged with her Seelie.

Boom!

She used both the ice ability of the Seelie and her fire element to attack the tornado, causing a large explosion. The impact of the attack made her take a few steps back.

The young man's gaze turned serious. He could tell this was her getting serious with the fight. As long as he could defeat her in this state as well, then he would be victorious. He didn't even want to think about the possibility of there being another state.

He attacked, but Alice blocked and countered. This time, his attack wasn't overwhelming hers, so she had all the chance to counterattack, unlike the first time.

The young man dodged the attack, and sent wind blades at Alice's direction.

Alice was technically two stages below the young man, but it was clear to see the duo were fairly even now that she had merged with her Seelie. At the current rate, it all depends on who could grasp a moment and take the advantage.

The young man was being careful not to give Alice that chance, while Alice, on the other hand, was attacking aggressively. She has never liked holding back when battling. She preferred attacking consistently, and since the young man was holding back, it was the chance she needed.

The young man kept his cool as he faced the repeated attacks from Alice. This was the first time he was showing signs of being on the back foot since the start of the battle. However, everyone watching knew that he was by no means on the back foot.

Both fighters are hoping their method would win them the battle.

Alice's constant attacks against the well-composed young man.

As time went on, it became evident that the battle was most likely going to stop there.

Grey shook his head and said, "Alice will win. Against anyone else, that guy would've won. But giving Alice a free reign to attack is a terrible thing to do."

"Yeah, especially with so much time as well." Klaus chipped in.

"He's not even trying to counter. Such a shame." Reynolds added.

All four friends knew what each other were capable of. Grey and Reynolds presently had the most explosive attacks, but Alice was no pushover either. Since she awakened her fire and ice domain, she rarely uses her lightning element, even though it was originally her dominant element.

In times like this, however, her lightning element comes into play. She would use the fire and ice element to soften her opponent, and when he unleashes the explosive attack of her lightning element, her opponent would be caught off guard.

And just as the friends thought, Alice used her fire and ice domain to strike.

The young man focused all his strength to block the domain attack, but his pupils constricted when he sensed danger.

Buzz! Bang!
