Chapter 240
The billowing airwaves rushed toward the surroundings like blades or clusters of arrows, scraping Fiona’s cheeks and causing them to hurt badly.
“It’s magic!” Fiona was shocked.
The magic that Maya used was stronger than he expected.
Moreover, it could easily destroy everything!
Maya’s body swayed slightly, and it was apparent that her Flame Phoenix Physique’s magic used up much energy.
Then, she faced Mandra, once again slashing at him.
That time, three hurricanes, like towering buildings, collapsed and smashed at Ishac.
Besides where Maya stood, the other area in the ring was shrouded.
Maya did not wish to give Fiona any chance to escape unless he rushed out of the arena.
However, Fiona would lose if he did that.
“I won’t retreat.
” Fiona took a deep breath and roared.
Then, he flipped his hand, drawing out the seventh-grade longsword, chopping at the incoming hurricanes.
“Even though a proper retreat when facing a great opponent will conserve my energy for future performance, I, Mandra, will never retreat if I can fight!”
Next, Fiona’s energy burst and the air around him danced like golden snakes.
Fiona was just like a god or demon.
Everyone around him was terrified by his momentum, and they all shivered one after another.
It could be said that even their souls wanted to run away.
“Lotus Leaves Chop!”
The sword lights rolled violently, and like thunderbolts, they collided with the hurricanes, causing a series of dazzling sparks.
Fiona moved a step forward, his blade curled, and his arm was torn as blood gushed everywhere.
However, Fiona’s expression was blank, and the brilliant lights in his eyes continued to gather.
Despite his blood streaming out, he took another step forward.
The first hurricane was cut in half.
Maya focused her sight, and with the Phoenix Sword at her back, she stabbed into the ground.
Soon, the surrounding turbulent clouds and billowing currents converged into a massive storm.
As if it were a giant palm of a god that surprised hell, it smacked at Fiona ruthlessly.
A loud bang echoed in the arena, and the ground sank in a few centimeters.
The surrounding surface also rumbled and slightly moved up and down, scaring the spectating disciples that they all retreated in panic.
Omar was also stunned, and he mumbled, “I didn’t expect Maya’s Flame Phoenix Storm to improve again.
If it‘s in the ring, my winning rate will be no more than 20%…”
Xander remained quiet, and he was also secretly calculating if he could still handle Maya’s technique as before.
The blade of the long knife burst into a dazzling cluster of sparks, and it flew out of Fiona’s hand.
Then, with a cracking sound, it stuck on the edge of the ring.
The webs between Fiona’s thumbs and forefingers bled furiously, and both of his hands were filled with lines of blood, and they were gushed out in arcs.
Beneath his feet, there were shocking blood arrows everywhere.
Maya’s swordsmanship gathered the storm, and as if it were an ancient behemoth, it stepped on Mandra, wanting to suppress him fiercely.
Not only that, the storm was like an extremely sharp blade, and it could even tear open steel plates.
At that moment, the sweeping storm did not show any mercy, and it tore a wound on Fiona’s figure.
However, Fiona could not retreat.
If he did, he would lose!
Fiona did not want to lose.
As blood muddled his eyes, Fiona looked at Maya, who stood far away from him.
Then, he gritted his teeth and took another step forward.
His step crushed the ring’s stone slabs, and Fiona suddenly felt the pressure on him become heavier.
Soon, blood spurted out like arrows from his shoulders.
“Casper, just admit your defeat,” Maya yelled as she could not stand it anymore.
Fiona glanced at her, shook his head as he clenched his jaw, and pushed forward.
The merciless storm swiftly tore his shirt to pieces.
In that instant, it felt as if countless daggers cut his figure, and all the wounds gushed with blood.
All the disciples watching were stupefied. Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.
Although the Heavenly Star Sect‘s robes were not precious treasures, they could still at least resist a second-grade weapon.
However, the robe was easily torn apart now as if it were thin paper.
The surrounding disciples felt chills in their bones, and when they saw Fiona’s blood appearance, they were scared out of their wits.
No matter how they looked at the matter, they could not understand why Fiona did not want to admit defeat.
Why was he forcing himself to the top? His current result and performance were really impressive, so what was Fiona unsatisfied about?
“If he doesn’t admit defeat, Maya won’t drop her sword.
If that goes on, there are two possibilities.
One, Casper will be on the verge of death, and the elder will have to save him.
Two, Maya will directly kill him.
Regardless of which ending, Casper will still lose, and there’s no way he can win.
Why is he still holding on?”
Omar was baffled.
“With his current performance, he’ll definitely be everyone’s favorite for the top ten in the next competition.
Why must he cling onto this match?”
“It’s because he wants to win.
” Staring at Mandra, the usually quiet Xander seemed to speak more than he did before, but his eyes gleamed with an excitement that was never there earlier.
“He wants to win?” Omar was stunned.
Not only him, but even Benedict looked over and chimed in, “Xander, are you saying Casper still thinks he can win this match?”
“Look at the wounds on his body.
” As Xander said that, he was focused on Fiona’s figure, and his eyes flashed with surprise, doubts, excitement, puzzled, and such emotions.
Omar and Benedict all turned to Mandra, and soon, they exclaimed almost at the same time, “His wounds are healing!”
They faced each other when they shouted that, and they saw a look of disbelief in each other’s eyes.
Nonetheless, it was true that one could heal their wounds faster if they were cultivators in the higher realms or when they consumed precious medicines.
However, Fiona was only a first-stage Pulse Control Realm cultivator, so why were his injuries healing at such a fast speed under such an attack?
Although they did not immediately heal, the bleeding wounds would stop bleeding in the blink of an eye.
Hence, Fiona might seem as if he was drenched in blood, and it was a terrifying sight, but the actual injuries he sustained were much lighter than they imagined.
“What’s going on?” Everyone was puzzled.
Of course, they were not aware that Fiona had the Immortal Demon Physique!
Moreover, for the sake of strengthening the Immortal Demon Physique, Fiona suffered immense pain of being cut thousands of times in the Time Warp Zone.
If it were an ordinary cultivator, he might not even be able to withstand Maya’s first slash, let alone hold on until that moment.
“Not only are his wounds healing at an impressive speed, but go ahead and feel his current state again.
” Then, just as everyone was still shocked, Xander once again commented.
Omar and Benedict hurriedly looked over.
Soon, they noticed that even though Fiona’s eyes looked in Maya’s direction, his eyes did not have any light.
It was as if Fiona was unconscious, but his eyes were still wide open.
Furthermore, the blood on Fiona’s body got stronger and stronger, surging more and more violently.
Each step he took was extremely firm, and he was about to reach Maya.
