Chapter 505 Chad Wins!

Name:Ancient Tears BloodLine Author:


Duel Arena,

Everyone stopped their fighting and turned toward the 10th fighting platform. 

Chad Bartlett sneered. Everything is going according to his plan. Even Michael can't back away from fighting right now.

Michael Blevins stood opposite him. Facing each other, Chad Bartlett can't wait to make a move.

Michael's expression is solemn. From the beginning he knows something is wrong. But he has confidence in himself. And his Golden Aura element is not easy to defend.

The whole crowd set their eyes on the duel. The audiences are staring at the screen. Below, the elder feels it's time to start.

When the signal was given. 

Chad made his move. He dashed toward Michael at breakneck speed. 

Michael expected him to make a first move. So he wasn't surprised. 

The next moment, he raised his hand to punch. His first bath in golden light all of a sudden. But anyone who is familiar with golden aura knows how tough it is?

Ernest and Laveren looked solemn below the platform. Both understand Michael is serious about the duel.

Laverne who was clueless earlier. She seems to understand something. Previously, Chad used to be cautious when facing the golden aura.

Now he is confronting it head on.

Ernest is looking to find some clues. He doesn't know where Chad's confidence comes from.

On the platform, Chad grinned widely. He courageously raises his fist to meet Michael's golden aura punch.

When the two fist comes in contact with each other.

Boom~

A terrible sound reverberated throughout the area. Shock wave swept across the platform.

"Hmm," Michael's eyes lit up with surprise. Not only he retreated a few steps backward. The golden aura depleted from the collision.

A sudden realization struck his mind.

"You..," He looked at Chad who was smiling from ear to ear.

"He broke through," Michael said in his heart.

So this is the reason. He is feeling something odd earlier. This mad man is now stronger than himself.

He was fooled by him earlier. 

"Harumph," He gave a cold snort in his heart.

Swish~

The next moment, he disappeared from the spot and arrived in front of Chad. He twisted his fist to punch him in the abdomen.

Chad who was unfazed by Michael's move. He calmly blocked his punch again.

Boom~

Shock wave again swept across the platform.

The crowd who was watching the duel broke out in loud cheer. They are fascinated by the bright golden aura.

It is completely different from the other five elements.

...

From MC's Perspective:

An hour ago,

I came to my room after completing the Gravity Training. Day by day, I'm pushing my body limit further. Even to the extent of getting injury. 

But thanks to the wooden scripture. I can heal myself. 

30 minutes later,

After taking a long shower. I changed to fresh clothes. I'm planning to head back to the building again to complete the lightning training.

But before that I casually opened my sci-fi watch and logged into the academics social media site.

Right after, my feed is filled with news posts. All of them are about duel arena. I know most of the warriors are watching duels right now.

When I scrolled down the page. I spotted one of the live feeds. Seeing that, I decided to watch a few duels before going back to the train.

A small holographic protection appears above the watch.

There are 10 duels taking place on 10 different platforms. So I selected platform no.1 to watch the duel.

The scene changed and duel taking place platform no.1 is shown.

Seeing that I sat on the sofa and began to watch the duel.

20 minutes later,

I'm watching the duel. But it's a little bit boring. The warriors are not strong. Most of the duels ended within a few minutes. 

None of the warriors showed any dominance. In a few moves, either they admit defeat or get injured. They lost courage.

No wonder the dean is unsure about them.

If they show similar performance in the year end conference, then we would hit the bottom place for sure.

When I was lost in thoughts. I saw something strange happen on the ground.

Four people walked out of the entrance. Looking at their face, I immediately recognised.

"Michael" "Laverne" 

"And Ernest" 

"What are they doing here?" I muttered to myself.

"Wait a second?"

"Who is the 4th person?"

A warrior with red hair. I have never seen him before.

Suddenly, a realization dawned upon me.

He might be the warrior who ended his retreat. But what is he doing with those three?

I squinted my eyes in confusion. Then I focused my attention toward the projection screen. Something unusual happened again.

The red haired warrior beats the other two warriors on the platform. I don't know what they are talking about.

Otherwise, it's easy to follow their conversation. But that red haired warrior surprised me greatly.

After a few seconds, I saw Michael stepping inside.

"Is he going to fight?" I uttered in disbelief.

Michael is a Super Elite Warrior. So the red haired person might be Super Elite Warrior as well.

"Really?" 

"What is going on out there?"

This is not an Elite fight anymore. Has someone challenged Michael for a duel?

A lot of thoughts come to mind. But I know it's impossible. Because Michael is the person who likes to be low key. 

Even if someone challenges him, I don't think he will accept right away.

Because I haven't seen a single post online regarding the challenge. So something must have happened today.

The next moment, the referee announced the duel.

When the red haired person's identity was announced. 

"[email protected]," I cursed out loud. I couldn't help but stand in shock.

"Chad Bartlett," I uttered his name. 

So this guy is a fellow senior. No wonder, Michael is acting out like that. Since someone from the faction is challenging him. 

Michael has no choice other than to accept the challenge.

After knowing that that person is a senior of mine. I became more interested in this duel.

Then I sat back on the sofa and continued to watch the duel. 

5 minutes later,

A hint of surprise flashes in my eyes.

Michael is losing the fight. I can tell that his golden aura is not working against the opponent.

And what's with the Senior named Chad. He is not using his Special Element at all.

....

Duel Arena,

Swish~

A fierce evil wind strikes Michael all of a sudden. 

The evil wind quickly overwhelms the golden aura.

In a blink of an eye, it broke through Michael's defense. And lands a heavy blow to Michael's body.

Pfff!

Blood splattered. Michael crashed on to the ground the next second.

Cheer~

The next moment, the audience let out a roaring cheer. The duel was so lit. But the duel time was short.

Chad Bartlett broke out a fierce move at the last moment. His special element was so domineering. Before it the golden aura fails to block it.

Pfff!

Coughing up blood. Michael tries to get up. Ernest and Laverne rushed to help him. 

Michael was defeated without much of a fight. He was slightly injured. 

"Ha...Ha...Ha....," Chad let out a joyful laughter.

He feels satisfied by the win. Looking at Michael's injured state is more pleasing to the eyes. 

Earlier, he wanted to pay Michael back. And he has done it now. He cracked a wide grin on his face. 

The loud cheer still rings in his ears. 

After taking a glance at the referee, he stepped down from the platform.

Chad didn't wait for Michale to get up. He already showed the strength above the Super Elite Warrior. Unless, Michael breakthroughs. It's impossible to defeat him.

He then quickly left the arena.

Right after, Michael stood up with the help of Ernest and Laverne. There is an emergency clinic in this building.

So three of them slowly exit the arena to go there.

10 minutes later,

Michael swallowed the healing pill. Right after, a hot energy went down his throat and started to heal his inner injuries.

A few minutes later,

Michael's complexion turned better. Ernest and Laverne solemnly watch him. They can't wait to ask what had happened?

Because Michael was defeated in a blink of an eye. That moment was unbelievable for both of them. It's quite clear that Chad has become stronger than Michael now.

"Hmmm," Michael slowly opened his eyes.

He immediately checked his internal organs. Seeing that his injuries are gone. A hint of relief flashes in his eyes.

When he raised his head. He saw two of his friends standing in front of him. 

"Michael, what happened?" Ernest asked.

Laverne is looking at him with the same questioning eyes as well.

"Chad has taken a half step lead," Michael said.

"What?" Ernest uttered in disbelief. He knows what this means. A clear shock written on his face.

Laverne shocked to the core as well. Both knew what half step means.

It may seem like a half leap in power. As long as another half is completed, Chad can become SS Elite Warrior. 

Then they both looked at Michael with some concern.

At this moment, Michael seems to have made a tough decision.

He looked at both and said,"I'm going to retreat."
