Ancient Tears BloodLine

Special Faction Room,

"The Stadium is fully packed right now," Laverne Morrow said with a smile.

Beside her, Michael and Ernest are sitting down on the sofa.

Three of them looking at the digital screen. Where the live streaming of the event is going on.

"I don't know how far he has improved over these days," Michael said in a calm tone.

Ernest kept quiet but his eyes never left the digital screen.

After their last monster zone trip together, Zack has been acting alone all this time.

They knew Zack had been going to the monster zones from time to time. Since it's relatively safer monster zones, they didn't interfere in Zack's affairs.

On top of it, the Head of the Special Element Faction is in retreat. Which gives Zack a free schedule to act alone without having to ask for permission.

Dean Office,

Similarly,

Dean Rebecca also took some time off from her schedule to watch Zack's duel. She has been keeping tabs on Zack's activities. She knows his frequent visit to the monster zones.

But one thing she is not clear about is Zack's visit to the small ruins where the land was filled with a malicious aura. Later she found nothing wrong with Zack. So she didn't stop him from going there.

To be honest, she wants Zack's participation in the annual meeting. But unfortunately, Zack's safety will be compromised once he leaves the academy.

She doesn't want anything bad to happen to him. So she is hoping that other warriors would step up for the annual meet. The news regarding the annual meeting was tightly wrapped.

Only the respective head of each faction and elders knows about the annual meeting.

Duel Stadium,

This time Vice-dean Franklin didn't come. Right now the stadiums were filled with warriors from each faction. As usual most of the seats were occupied by the Flame Faction members.

Some of them are ardent supporters of Tyler Lane. Every flame faction member wants Tyler Lane to win. Last time, the limelight was taken by Zack.

So this time the flame faction members want to see some turnaround.

At this time, Tyler Lane entered the arena. Upon seeing him, the flame faction members erupted in cheer.

Looking at the sea of the crowd, a sense of satisfaction appeared on his face. "Wonderful crowd," He said to himself.

Then in front of everyone's eyes. He stepped up and walked inside the platform. "Where is he right now?" Tyler frowned.

Finally, he remembers the opponent Zack Lockwood. But still, there was no sign of him. From the beginning, he didn't think much about the challenge.

After posing the challenge to Zack Lockwood. He completely forgot about it. In the meantime, he spent his days quite leisurely. Just a day before he was reminded of this duel.

He feels fortunate that other top warriors didn't end their retreat. Now he has an opportunity to shine. Then looking down at the entrance he continues to wait for Zack.

...

From MC's perspective:

Duel Stadium,

After having breakfast, I left the dining hall and reached the duel stadium. This time I'm familiar with the route. I quickly walked inside the admin room where I came across the staff.

One of them briefed me about the situation. After knowing that Tyler Lane is waiting for me. I nodded at the person before going to the dueling platform.

When I entered the arena, I saw that arena was filled with crowds. A hint of surprise flashes in my eyes. The crowd appears to be not less than that of my precious duel.

Then I pushed down these thoughts and walked up to the platform where a person was waiting for me.

Walking up to the stage, I stood opposite Tyler Lane. The crowd continues to make loud noises in excitement. They can't wait for the duel to start.

"You are late," Tyler Lane said in a cold tone.

I shook my head in response and waited for the bell to ring.

Tyler Lane's face turned ugly after getting no response. He never thought this person to be so arrogant. His heart boils in anger.

The bell rang all of a sudden. Indicating that duel starts!

Tyler Lane made the first move. He raised his fist and charged toward the opponent.

The crowd erupts in cheer.

The Flame Faction members kept their eyes on Tyler. They want to see how many moves he is going to make to end the duel.

Clearly in everyone's mind. Tyler Lane is stronger than the Giant Tower Members.

Meanwhile, seeing him coming at me. My eyes flickered with a slight glint. He is not dumb as I had expected. He wants to test me before making the final move.

When he got closer to me. He punched me. His fists released burning flames. Suddenly the temperature around me rose greatly. I feel a small threat from the punch attack.

This guy didn't even suppress his realm. His flame punch contains the power of the peak elite. When the power got closer to me. I used the lightning phantom technique to evade.

Swish!

I disappeared from the spot and evaded the flame punch in time.

Bang!

The attack lands a hit at the empty platform. A terrible sound resonated throughout the area. Right after the flame burst into several small flames.action

The heat immediately swept around the platform.

Gasp!

The crowd let out a huge gasp in surprise. Everyone saw Zack evading the attack at the last moment.

Tyler Lane was surprised as well. Because he didn't suppress his realm at all. He used peak speed to charge at the opponent.

Now, Zack's lightning movement technique caught him by surprise.

Swish!

Both of them returned to their previous position and stood opposite each other.

Tyler Lane frowned. He had underestimated the opponent's lightning power. Now he feels a little bit tricky to handle it.

Meanwhile, I took a few glances at the platform before turning toward him. The platform was roasted by the red flames.

My face turned dignified. The flame does not look simple. It's just an ordinary attack from the opponent but it can cause severe damage. A hint of surprise flashes in my eyes.

Swish!

This time I took the lead and rushed toward him. I used the phantom technique to reduce the distance by half.

This all happened in a blink of an eye,

Tyler Lane became alerted quickly. He shot fireballs at the opponent.

The flame ball brushed past me and landed a hit at the empty spot.

Bang!

A terrible sound resonates in the area. Ignoring the sound, I reached him in an instant.

"Lightning Wheel," I said.

A purple color wheel appears around me. The wheel is beaming with lightning power.

But the next moment, the lightning wheel comes in contact with Tyler Lane's body.

Bang!

Right after, the lightning wheel blows up. A terrible sound resonates in the area. Tyler Lane was thrown off stage from the impact force.

For a moment, the dueling platform is covered in smoke. No one can see Zack. But Tyler Lane crashed on the ground.

His abdomen has suffered a severe injury. Seeing that the whole crowd became silent all of a sudden.

No one had expected to witness such a result.

Tyler Lane was wiping in pain. Everyone can see that he needs urgent medical attention.

The smoke was cleared on the platform.

Gasp!

The crowd gasped again in shock. What happened? They witnessed a purple color wheel appear for a moment. Then all of a sudden Tyler Lane was swept away from the impact.

Meanwhile, my eyes flickered with a surprising glint. My assumption was right. His body was not that much stronger compared to the Giant Tower Warrior.

My single lightning-wheel attack was enough to cause severe damage. Now he won't be able to get up from the ground.

After seeing my unscathed body the crowd erupted in a loud cheer. Everyone must be surprised by the lightning wheel. But they don't know that I have exhausted the whole purple essence in my dantian.

Now there is little lightning essence left in my dantian.

The next moment, the announcement came. The staff declared me a winner.

Right after, I stepped down and walked toward the exit amid the loud cheer.

Then Tyler was taken by the staff for treatment.

Special Faction Room,

Michael's pupil becomes dignified. "Have you seen this attack before?" He asked.

They know about Zack's lightning moves. But this time three times I saw something different.

"Looks like it's Zack's new move," Laverne uttered in surprise. She was shocked by this new lightning attack's power.

Ernest said, "It appears we had underestimated Zack's strength. He still has some cards in his sleeves."

Michael nodded his head and said, "Yeah, he is hiding his strength. But it would be useless against Super Elite Warrior."

Ernest and Laverne looked at each other. They heard a change in Michael's tone. Both turned toward Michael for some answers.

Michael felt the gazes on him. So he quickly collected his thoughts and answered, "I don't know what he is thinking?"

"But you guys know that our Head likes to be low-key. He won't appreciate Zack's action," He added further.

Ernest and Laverne smiled helplessly in response.
