Chapter 81: Absolute Ice

The duel challenge has already been issued and has been accepted by Amon.

After seeing the information displayed by Amon, Chen Zhang's eyes turned red. He had bet 100 credit, that was a little more than half he had in all.

Chen Zhang was standing in the hall, stunned.

After a while, he gave a bitter smile.

There was no way to avoid it, he sent the challenge himself, if he backed down now, he would lose by giving up.

After the challenge was launched, those nearby were notified.

When the group that was together with Chen Zhang saw the name of Amon Tang, they soon searched to find out why Chen Zhang was so stunned.

"Damn, he dueled Gean Lee and won!"

"Not only that, he won easily..."

"Wasn't it Gean Lee that Chen Zhang lost?"

"Maybe that's why he's so stunned."

"..."

Commenting so far, they were silent.

Chen Zhang and Amon left the great hall and went to the gym where the map on the clock told them to go.

While walking, Chen Zhang's friends watched the video. The more they saw it, the more surprised they were.

When they arrived, Amon was on the opposite side of Chen Zhang.

The 'flying saucer', much like yesterday's, appeared above their heads. A projection of a Duel Restraint Deck was created.

A team begins to appear in the holographic form as the countdown proceeds. The numerical language was the universal language.

Chen Zhang was the first striker. He was from a family of prestigious battle magicians, so he took aim at Amon without hesitation.

"Ice!"

A pillar of ice came out of Chen Zhang and flew towards Amon at a frightening pace.

Lightning manifested around Amon's body, very fast he dodged, it was like he was pulled by something very fast, instead of moving, it was very similar to a chess move. Soon in a zigzag form, he was quick towards Chen Zhang.

A few meters away, Amon pointed his left hand in Chen Zhang's direction.

*Tiger of Lightning!*

The incantation was done internally, nobody noticed him doing the incantation, as not even his lips moved, soon a tiger made of lightning came out and was very fast towards Chen Zhang.

"Ice Barrier!"

Unlike Amon, Chen Zhang's spells were aloud, because by doing so, the genetic power grew stronger.

The lightning tiger flashed as it hit the translucent ice barrier before losing momentum and disappearing, but not before cracking the ice shield.

Chen Zhang starts to pant a little. This barrier was one of his best spells, however, it wears out his genes a lot.

"You…" Chen Zhang's disbelieving eyes narrowed. Biting his lip until it bled, he sighed.

"Absolute Ice!"

As soon as the ice began to surround him like a whirlpool, Chen Zhang used as much concentration as possible while his eyes never left Amon.

Curiosity flashed in Amon's eyes, he didn't know exactly what Chen Zhang wanted to do, but it looked interesting.

Amon threw a lightning ball in Chen Zhang's direction for testing.

It was then that a pillar of ice very fast prevented the attack, it was as if the ice had a life of its own.

"Oh..."

For the first time since the duel began, Amon's face showed surprise.

What surprised him, even more, was that the lightning ball was swallowed up by the ice and appeared to have been absorbed.

"Interesting." Amon's lips curved into a cold smile.

Even Chen Zhang's friends were amazed at what they saw.

"I can't believe Chen Zhang was able to use Absolute Ice..."

"He hid it from us too."

"Wow, I thought he was going to lose, but now..."

"Well, it all depends on how well he's mastered this spell, anyway, don't say anything else."

"Yes, we don't want Chen Zhang's enemy to know about this spell."

Barbara and the twins heard this and were a little worried.

"Hehe, no need to worry, look, Amon is having fun~" Ariel said in a soft voice with a giggle.

"Ice spikes!"

After these words came out of Chen Zhang's mouth, a piece of ice that surrounded him, like the tip of a boat, was pointed towards Amon, and from the ground, ice spikes were falling in coordination.

Amon dodged, but the ice followed at high speed.

"Amazing." Amon increased the speed.

Soon the ice stopped, unable to keep up with Amon's increase in speed.

At high speed, Amon appeared behind Chen Zhang and threw a very strong punch surrounded by lightning!

*BOOOOM!*

It was like Chen Zhang had eyes in his back, the ice went all the way to his back and created a five-layer shield!

The loud sound of ice breaking and lightning hitting hard echoed.

Shards of ice flew, but only three layers of ice were initially broken until the fourth was too, and the fifth just cracked.

"Ice spikes!"

Amon backed off, he starts to zigzag back, avoiding the ice that chases him.

'This spell is good.' Amon thought as he dodged, 'Could I do something like lightning?'

The duel continued for another 10 minutes.

With Amon attacking and retreating, while Chen Zhang attacked and defended himself.

Soon, Chen Zhang starts to look paler and paler like a candle.

"Was cool." Amon said in a neutral tone, "But let's get this over with."

After he found out what he wanted to find out. Amon did not drag this duel any longer.

From his hands, lightning crackled like thousands of volts of electricity, the sounds incredibly irritating and frightening.

Chen Zhang's eyes rolled back, not in contempt but in fear, having a fainting lapse, he felt death.

"I, I give up!!" He yelled, Chen Zhang, didn't have the confidence to make it out alive if Amon attacked now.

[End of Duel – Student Chen Zhang withdrew. Student Amon Tang won and won 100 credits on the bet]

"deja-vu?" Maisa said.

"Haha, I thought the same thing." Julia laughed.

Amon's rating went up a little too. Now he was ranked 1,993,001

"He lost it even using Absolute ice…" Chen Zhang's friends couldn't believe it.
