Chapter 231: Chapter 231: This Battle Is Not Over

The bald man holding the microphone introduced simply. He said:

"The regular audience must be very familiar with this. Today's star, the Level Four Beast Master, is Kira, who is only 20 years old and has set a record of 18 kills, known as the Butcher!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the audience below began to cheer. Some shouted loudly: "Kira, I bet on you to win! Go out there and take him down!"

"I also bet on you to win! Show that guy Finn what a real man's battle looks like!"

"Rip him in half!"

After a while, the venue finally quieted down. Clearly, the so-called "Butcher." the ace Level Four Beast Master, had a certain level of fame in the underground octagonal cage.

Many people believed he could directly kill Finn.

"Charles, what do you think about this battle? Who will win?" Ruby asked, sitting to Charles's right. She leaned in closer and spoke softly into his ear.

The warm breath Ruby exhaled carried a unique fragrance, and without a second thought, Charles replied, "Finn will win."

"Oh, you have that much faith in him?" Ruby said, clearly curious.

Although she didn't know Finn, she understood that in the underground world, those who could become ace Beast Masters had incredibly strong combat abilities.

In her view, Finn had a high probability of winning, but she also acknowledged that his opponent could turn the tables.

Charles nodded and continued, "He has hidden methods. This guy gives me a strong impression, in terms of combat awareness and experience, he's not weaker than I am."

Ruby stared at Charles's serious face and remarked, "Are you praising him or yourself?"

At that moment, the bald man continued his introduction: "As for this one, there's not much to say. He decisively defeated three gold-level Level Four Beast Masters yesterday. We'll see if he can achieve victory against Kira today."

"The match is about to begin! Please hold onto your tickets. We will soon see the results!"

When Finn was introduced, there was hardly any noise in the venue. Not many people recognized him, and even though he had performed impressively yesterday, few dared to bet on his victory.

Charles suddenly thought of something and slapped his forehead in regret.

This action piqued the curiosity of Celestine and Ruby. Celestine asked, "What's wrong?"

"If I had known, I would have spent some gold coins to bet on Finn winning before coming here. Now that the fight is about to start, it's too late." Charles replied.

Seeing the reactions of the people around him, he realized that the odds for betting on Finn to win must be very high.

If there were no limits on the amount, Charles planned to bet more on Finn's victory in the next match!

"Charles, maybe you shouldn't bet at all. You never know what could happen. The underground world surely has ways to intervene." Celestine said.

In her eyes, gambling was an unreliable endeavor, as the uncontrollable factors were too high.

"It's fine. I'll let it go for today. Let's see how Finn performs and who his opponent is tomorrow before deciding." Charles answered.

Time passed.

The two fighters in the octagonal cage were fully prepared.

With a sharp ringing sound, the battle officially began!

Finn and Kira remained standing in place, not making any moves, their gazes locked onto each other.

as if they had agreed upon it, both launched their attacks simultaneously!

Finn powered off his legs, shooting towards Kira like a bolt of lightning.

His muscles bulged, and his skin glowed with an extraordinary sheen, making him look formidable!

His fist howled through the air as it struck towards Kira's temple. Kira, not to be outdone, blocked with his left arm while extending his right hand, fingers together like a dagger aimed at Finn's throat.

Both fighters had clear targets, with no wasted movements, all directed towards each other's vital points.

This is what true combat is like, it's a matter of life or death, brutally and bloodily so.

Just as the two were about to make contact, Finn smoothly altered his attack. His body moved like a well-oiled machine, executing a perfect arc.

Not only did he evade Kira's strike, but his own offensive was also unaffected, maintaining both speed and force as he aimed for a new target!

This time, Finn targeted the back of Kira's head!

That area is one of the most vulnerable spots on the human body, indicating Finn's deep understanding of human anatomy. Both targets aimed for a lethal blow!

Among the spectators, many experienced fighters watched in shock at the unfolding scene in the octagonal cage.

Someone instinctively exclaimed:

"It's over! Kira is done for! He can't dodge now and can only take the hit!"

"This Finn's combat techniques are bizarre, he can change his attack at will without losing momentum."

"Exactly! This makes it incredibly difficult to defend against Finn's assault, he can only passively endure the blows!"

Even Celestine couldn't help but say to Charles, "Is Kira really going to lose? It seems he can only defend against Finn's attacks."

Charles showed no surprise on his face as he replied, "It's not over yet, the best is still to come."

As he said this, Charles couldn't help but think that if he were facing Finn, he certainly wouldn't choose to defend.

Finn's combat techniques were too peculiar, passive defense meant taking hits, leaving no chance for victory!

If Charles were in the octagonal cage, he would unhesitatingly choose to attack!

The true wisdom of combat is to leverage one's advantages to strike at the opponent's weaknesses!

"I don't think Kira can hold on much longer." Celestine expressed her opinion.

Charles shook his head and confidently responded, "In this situation, offense is the best defense. Kira will definitely go all out in his next attack!"

And sure enough.

In the next moment, Kira's expression turned fierce, as if he had made up his mind.

He chose to abandon defense completely and closed the distance while Finn was attacking.

Then, Kira's entire right hand became rigid and swollen, and an unusual redness crept across his face.

Some spectators who understood the situation couldn't help but shout, "Here it comes! Kira is about to use his signature combat technique!"

"It's the Decapitating Blade!"

"He has already killed 18 opponents with the Decapitating Blade, this time will be no different!"

Charles watched the battle in the octagonal cage intently. He realized that the so-called Decapitating Blade involved channeling metallic energy into the right arm, making it as sharp and sturdy as a long knife.

Then, Kira transformed his arm into a massive blade and attacked the enemy's vulnerable points!

Just when most people thought Finn was about to lose, an unexpected scene unfolded.

Finn took two steps back and raised his right arm and left leg, blocking in front of his body. A surge of elemental energy erupted from his entire body, forming a faintly transparent shield!

Watching the seemingly flimsy shield repeatedly block Kira's attacks was astonishing!

"What is this, a second combat technique? It looks defensive!"

"It's over, Kira's attacks are all being blocked! I've lost my salary for the month!"

Standing next to the octagonal cage, Shannon turned to the spectators behind him and said proudly, "My brother is incredibly strong, just a mere ace can't possibly compete with him!"

Kira continued to attack repeatedly, exhausting his stamina.

The Decapitating Blade put a heavy load on his right arm, and if this continued, his arm might be rendered useless before he could break through Finn's defensive combat techniques.

Kira stepped back a couple of paces to create some distance and hoarsely asked, "What is this combat technique?"

Finn fixed his gaze on Kira's right arm and replied, "It's called the Wall!"

"What a Wall! I can't break through your defense, but I'm not giving up." Kira said, taking a deep breath.

He still had methods left to employ.

In the next moment, under everyone's watchful eyes, Kira's entire body underwent a transformation.

His skin emitted a metallic sheen under the lights.

Not only that, but his once-bulging muscles suddenly contracted, tightly adhering to his bones.

In the blink of an eye, Kira transformed into a metallic skeleton!

This change left everyone present in shock, even those who frequently attended octagonal cage battles had never seen such a sight.

"What the hell? How did he go from a muscle man to a skeleton?"

"Kira looks like a solid block of metal now. What combat technique is this? Have you seen it before?"

"I've never seen it! This is my first time seeing Kira like this!" Content from m-vl|em|p,yr

"It seems he's pulling out his last trump card, I wonder if Finn can handle it."

As the audience debated, the bald man with the microphone sighed and remarked softly, "Kira, you're still so stubborn. This Metal Burn technique will cause significant harm to your body!"

Charles, standing nearby, was also taken aback, he hadn't expected Kira to have such a method.

It seemed one couldn't underestimate any ace-level Beast Master!

Even so, Charles noticed that Finn's gaze remained calm, showing no signs of disturbance.

It was as if he could handle whatever Kira threw at him with ease!

The match wasn't over yet, the truly exciting battle was just beginning!
