571 The Finals [2]
Rei Wian showed a faint smile and spoke "I've heard a lot about you, Zhao Tian, let's see if you live up to the hype."
With a nod, Zhao Tian returned his smile.
The crowd roared as the tension between the two disciples reached its peak and the announcer raised his hand, his voice ringing out once more.
"Let the final match... BEGIN!" Rei Wian raised his hand, summoning a gleaming crimson spear from his storage ring. The weapon shimmered with a fiery glow, its sharp tip radiating intense heat that distorted the air around it. Rei Wian's kept his smile as he spun the spear effortlessly in his hands. "You should've brought a weapon, Zhao Tian. I won't hold back just because you came unarmed."
Zhao Tian nodded his head. "And I won't ask you to."
*woosh* In an instant, Rei Wian launched forward like a flaming comet, his spear slicing through the air with a high-pitched whistle. *crack* The platform beneath his feet cracked under the force of his movement, and the fiery aura surrounding his weapon flared violently as he infused it with Spear Intent. The first thrust came with blinding speed, aimed directly at Zhao Tian's chest.
Yet, Zhao Tian moved as though he had seen the attack before it happened.
With a subtle shift of his foot, he sidestepped the strike, the spear tip grazing his robes without touching him.
Rei Wian didn't falter and using the momentum of his missed attack, he twisted his body, spinning the spear in an arc.
*SLEESH* A crescent-shaped wave of fire erupted from the spear, roaring toward Zhao Tian.
Zhao Tian's figure blurred as he sidestepped once more, leaving the fiery crescent to crash harmlessly into the formation barrier. *THOOOM* Rei Wian spun on his heel, launching a flurry of strikes with blinding speed. *swoosh* *swoosh* Each thrust carried the weight of his spear intent, leaving fiery trails in the air. Zhao Tian parried each strike with nothing but his bare hands, his palms gliding along the spear's shaft to redirect its momentum. Rei Wian's gaze narrrowed and he launched into the air, his spear glowing brighter as flames spiraled around it. "If you think you can keep dodging forever, think again."
Zhao Tian smled, playing along with him, his figure flickering as he leaped after him, his white hair shimmering in teh breeze.
*THOOM* The two clashed mid-air, their silhouettes framed by the blazing sun.
Rei Wian spun his spear, the weapon becoming a whirl of fire as he swung it down with tremendous force.
"You're making this too easy," Zhao Tian teased, his voice light yet confident. Rei Wian chuckled, a bead of sweat trickling down his temple. "You think this is all I've got?"
With a deep breath, Rei Wian raised his spear high, flames coiling around him forming a blazing tiger.
The air around him grew heavy as he unleashed the full force of his Spear Intent. "Blazing Tempest Strike." He brought the spear down in a powerful arc, releasing a massive wave of fire that roared toward Zhao Tian like a tidal wave.
*WOOOOSHHH* The flames consumed everything in their path, turning the very air into a furnace.
Zhao Tian's eyes narrowed as he raised his hand and a faint blue glow surrounded his palm as he met the fiery wave head-on. With a single sweeping motion, he parted the flames like water, the fire dissipating into harmless sparks and teh aftermath of the attack rippling shockwaves across teh arena. 'Elemental energies won't affect my Honoured One's physique.... They bend to my will, you idiot.'
The Wing masters were also uite amused Seeing Zhao Tian easily deflecting it, Rei Wian's gaze narrowed and a sharp white energy flicked through his eyes.
Hm? Zhao Tian noticed the energy around Rei Wian getting sharper 'Spear Intent...'
*sleesh* As he waved his spear, a large white energy condensed in the air and slashed towards Zhao Tian in a wide arc.
Zhao Tian sidestepped, dodging the spear intent as it came crashing down to the arena floor, creating an enormous crack as dust and debris flying around. *THOOOOM*
*woosh* Suddenly at this time, wind energy erupted from Rei Wian's body mingling with his flames, making his flames even brighter and more chaotic.
A smile appeared on Zhao Tian's lips 'Dual elementals?'
"You show off bastard."
