Tempest of the Battlefield Chapter 423

The improvement came from not only strength, but also a fighter's overall responsiveness to changes on the battlefield .

The two lances collided with each other, spilling out enormous amounts of energy that rippled through space .

Wang Tong's recklessness and his whimsical fighting style seemed unprofessional in comparison with the Ivantian Einherjar's set-moves . However, no one other than Wang Tong would have held his ground for so long under an Einherjar's attacks .

Nevertheless, Patroclus still had the absolute advantage as long as he kept at it; his victory was only a matter of time .

The Einherjar Lance was laced with a sizzling GN force as Wang Tong gave all he had in this fight . He had infused his attack with as much natural force as he could harness . Each jab and thrust carried a measure of levity and a sense of nonchalant finality . On the other hand, Patroclus's direct and purposeful attacks were straight out of textbooks . There was no need to pull any tricks as Patroclus was confident that he could win the match with his Einherjar-level strength alone .

"KOM!"

Patroclus managed to open up the wall of ice spikes surrounding him, so he took the opportunity and dashed out of the encirclement, charging directly at Wang Tong . One advantage that Wang Tong had over his opponent was his experience in a real war . Never been the boots on the ground, Patroclus would never learn what it was like in fighting a real battle, much less drawing power from such experience .

By then, Wang Tong's pupil had already turned bloody-red as he inched closer towards a battle trance . The risk was high as he went further into a battle trance, but Wang Tong conceded that his options were very limited . After years of training, Wang Tong had learned to enter battle trance by conditioning his mind and emotions . He had learned that his trigger was the scene of the bloody massacre of his comrades on Norton . While in a trance, Wang Tong was practically a hungry beast with limited mental capacity . In exchange, his physical damage was exponentially increased .

"KOM!"

A quick jab landed on Wang Tong's shoulder, which felt like a mosquito bite to the entranced Wang Tong . He hurled his fist and landed it squarely on Patroclus's face .

In the trance mode, Wang Tong's defense was greatly reduced, since the simple mind of an enraged beast would not comprehend the act of evasion . There was only one way he could go, and it was forward, no side or back steps .

Wang Tong knew that this was the only way to victory, since he wagered that Patroclus would be much more afraid of being injured than he would . It was a scare tactic . However, what Wang Tong didn't take into account was the eccentric mind of his opponent . Not only did Patroclus not show any fear, but he also looked to be enjoying the moment .

As the intensity of the battle grew, so did the recklessness of the combatants' moves . They exchanged a few bare-knuckle rounds, taking their opponent's hit with its full intent . But, neither of them seemed to be faltering .

It was clear by then that Patroclus was more than a wimpy rich kid who couldn't take a hit . When Wang Tong's powerful blows landed on the Ivantian Prince, it was not the pain that flickered in the young Einherjar eyes, but the excitement and fragile edge of calmness .

"KOM, KOM, KOM!"

As the heat of the battle intensified, both combatants had forsaken the cautious approach and started to trade blows directly . Everyone had abandoned the hope of seeing a peaceful ending of this struggle .

"KOM!"

The two fighters backed away from each other to take a breath and recuperate . Patroclus's face was pale as wounds scattered all over his body . Wang Tong had cleverly used the GN force to penetrate the Ivantian's defense before he injected the natural forces into the opening . However, none of the natural forces were able to hurt Patroclus more than causing superficial wounds . On the other hand, Wang Tong's injury was much more severe . That being said, Wang Tong had an inhumanly fast rate of healing thanks to his Soul Essence .

Patroclus channeled his soul energy and floated into the air as the Deva Lance started to swirl in his hand like helicopter blades . The air moved in the same direction as the lance as energy poured into Patroclus' system .

Everyone realized that Patroclus was about to unleash an Einherjar's coup de grace .

The Deva Lance eventually created a silvery black-hole that started to suck in the energy from even the energy barriers .

Although Wang Tong could not yet utilize the power of Einherjar, he would not give up the match so quickly . Sensing the enormous pressure coming down on him from above, Wang Tong shouted out as fire spilled out of his eyes . The Einherjar Lance hummed, resonating with his owner's calling . Suddenly, a fire drake appeared out of nowhere and swooped down on Patroclus . It was just another common Mastery trick . Wang Tong would be too naive to think that he could stop an Einherjar with it .

While thinking that, Wang Tong gripped the lance and pushed it forward and started chanting . An ice drake appeared right next to the fire drake, interlocking its serpentine body with the fire . However, as the two serpents got closer, wild explosions erupted as the two opposite elements worked against each other .

Even as the two drakes was about to come apart due to the insistent explosions, Wang Tong doubled down on his attack and summoned a tornado that wrapped tightly around the two deadly harbinger of deaths, binding them together .

The turmoil inside the tornado increased by ten folds, but the wind-cage held and didn't give in . All mastery masters were shocked by the scene . They would have never imagined to combined two opposite natural forces together; they wouldn't be able to pull it off even if they had thought of it . Michaux was also taken aback by Wang Tong's technique . He reckoned that Wang Tong had used the wind element as a binding force to glue the fire and ice together, a truly precarious move .

Meanwhile in the sky, Patroclus's Einherjar attack was ready to be unleashed . The space-time web had already crumbled into one singularity, resting on the tip of his lance .

"KOM!"

Carrying the cosmic energy, The Deva lace bore down on Wang Tong .

Wang Tong reacted quickly and removed the binding wind around the boiling concoction of death .

As the two energies collided, everyone was blinded by a bright flash . No one could hear or see anything, and the world seemed to have come to a halt .

After a while, a rumbling in the distance broke the silence . As the rumbling increased its intensity, it turned into a roar and then a moan . People started to feel the world tremble under their feet as if the arena would collapse at any second .

When the bright light finally faded, people watched in horror as they discovered that last attack had destroyed 12 out of the 14 layers of energy shields . The last two layers opened up at a dozen places and were barely holding on . The scene at the center of the stage was even more gruesome, as the entire stage had been pulverized .

In a plume of dust, people found Wang Tong and Patroclus, both standing . Wang Tong's eyes were blood-shot while the Ivantian Prince was injured at a few places .

They were both smiling at each other!

"HAHAHA!"

The smiles turned into joyful laughter . This was the most satisfying battle they had ever fought, and they could finally understand the Blade Warrior and Rilangalos . The results of the match no longer mattered, and only the match itself would live forever .

After the laughter, Wang Tong rubbed the blood from the corner of his mouth and announced, "I'm getting bored . Let's finish it!"

"Haha! Might as well!"

Even as the two fighters spoke, their lances hummed as if they were also communicating with one another . The arena maintenance crew had promptly restarted the energy shields, putting the facility back to service .

Wang Tong squeezed the lance and announced, "Charcoal, start!" He stomped the end of the lance on the ground as he charged up his soul energy . Patroclus was already hovering in the air, absorbing as much energy as he could .

Wang Tong clenched the lance as he harnessed the primal power from the inner core of the moon . This was the ultimate strike that had defeated Michaux .

Patroclus's face contorted as he overloaded his system with energy; this would be his final blow!

Ma Xiaoru was terrified . She didn't care about the outcome; she only wanted Wang Tong to be safe . But, however overwrought she was, she could not do anything . She felt like she was watching a slow train wreck .

"KOM!"

A golden dragon, ten times the size of the fire and ice drakes, charged out of the Einherjar Lance . Meanwhile, a silvery shield was formed around Patroclus .

Kaboom!

Patroclus blocked Wang Tong's ultimate strike with ease . Patroclus didn't give Wang Tong a second chance as he leveled his lance and charged at Wang Tong .

This was the moment of life and death; the suspense made many audiences cover their eyes .

However, Wang Tong had promised Ma Xiaoru that he would return safely as the winner . In a blink of an eye, the belligerent energy in Patroclus's attack was absorbed by Wang Tong's lance .

It was the power of the Soul Essence!
