Chapter 156 A Fierce Fight (Part Two)

Suddenly, several explosive noises sounded in succession.

The Lotus Battle Ring shook violently following the piercing sounds of collision. The explosive power

caused by the collision of two kinds of powerful forces was so intense that it shattered the shielding

sheen of the Lotus Battle Ring into pieces.

The shielding sheen of the Lotus Battle Ring was actually a powerful magical screen designed to

prevent any capable Wonder Realm beginners from bursting their powers into the arena by mistake. So Content © NôvelDrama.Org.

it truly was almost unbreakable. Its breaking proved just how strong Darren's and the ape's strengths

were.

As the Lotus Battle Ring continued trembling violently, cracks began to appear on its foundation and

walls. Soon, the square inside it turned into ruins of stones and bricks. The dirt and dust on the air

became so thick that the people around could barely see the sunlight.

"It's so weird. I felt two kinds of outlandish forces in the fight. How is that possible?" All of the Holy

Lords knew exactly what the man was talking about as they had all felt it too. At once, they activated

their powerful sensing abilities in order to figure it out.

"It's so strange. The boy became covered with a layer of black scales!" With their powerful sensing

abilities, the Holy Lords could clearly see the situation on the arena in spite of the thick dirt and dusts in

the air. Darren's black scales seemed crystal clear in their eyes.

In the last moments of the fight, Darren exerted all of his intense transformation energy in order to

transform himself into a fierce monster.

Suddenly, two huge shadows were thrown from the middle of all the dirt and dust. Like two stars falling

from the sky, they fell through the air.

All of a sudden, the air whirled all around them.

Several people simultaneously leaped into the air to pursue the shadows that fleeted away from the dirt

and dust.

In no more than a blink of an eye, they were able to bring back their targets.

Clive threw a huge debris onto the ground of the square and shouted angrily, "Bastard, rise to your feet

now!"

The giant black ape that Bruce had transformed into lay motionless on the ground. His scales were

badly damaged, revealing several gashes and wounds of different sizes. For a few moments, he

merely lay motionless on the ground, staring at the sky above him with a seemingly blank expression.

But if you looked closely, you would see that there was fear in his lusterless eyes.

Following another thud, a figure of normal human size was thrown onto the ground as well. Even

though everyone recognized him as Darren, he did not look the same as he did before the fight started.

Now, he had transformed into a human-sized monster covered with black scales! Just like Bruce, blood

dripped from the wounds on the scales on Darren's body, turning the dirt around him into a blackish-red

color.

This situation was indeed beyond everybody's expectation.

At the moment, both Bruce and the boy from the Holy Land lay unconscious on the ground.

It went without saying that the one who woke up first would be able to kill the other one without much

effort. If that happened, the competition would end and the winner would be decided.

"Stand up, Bruce. Didn't you hear me?" Clive shouted at Bruce, clearly agitated. The next few moments

were so crucial that he could only kick Bruce's body again and again in an attempt to wake him up from

his unconsciousness.

But no matter how hard he kicked him, Bruce still lay motionless on the ground. His black broken

scales looked miserably terrifying under the bright sun. Slowly, Bruce's body started shrinking back to

its normal size.

All the chiefs from the Ancient Families stared at Bruce attentively, their faces taut with extreme

nervousness. Never in their wildest dreams did they ever imagine witnessing a situation like this one,

and they found it unacceptable. If Darren woke up before Bruce, Bruce would lose and they had to

hand over the magic spring water.

In the presence of the Holy Lords, there was no way the Ancient Families could ever break their

promise.

"Hmm..." Someone groaned weakly, clearly in agony.

Even though the moan was barely audible, the three chiefs from the Ancient Families heard it as clearly

as a bell and, at once, they bolted up from their chairs. Someone had woken up. 'Was it Bruce?' They

all asked themselves in their minds.

To their disappointment, it was Darren who had woken up from his coma first.

"Are you all right, Darren? How are you feeling?" asked Colin and Lino, their voices full of concern. As

soon as Darren woke up, they immediately approached him so as to check his injuries.

While watching the fight earlier, Belle felt worried and anxious. She had been so afraid that her brother

would die under the giant ape's forceful fists, and then she saw Darren lying motionless on the ground.

Her heart immediately sank.

Darren gradually opened his eyes, and as things came into focus, he found himself at the center of

everyone's attention. But he had other things in mind. He immediately looked around in search of

something and finally settled his eyes on Bruce. Without any hesitation, he limped towards his

opponent at once.

Everyone in the battle ring could only watch Darren in silence. All of the speculators watched Darren's

every step in anticipation, thinking of what he was about to do. Blood dripped from Darren's wounds,

leaving a trail of crimson blood behind him with every step.

Clive stopped frantically kicking Bruce. He could only look at Darren limping towards them. In that

moment, he forgot that he was trying to awaken Bruce. All he felt was frustration and sadness, as if his

heart had sunk into an abyss of despair.

With a hiss in the air, Darren drew out the sword in his hand the moment he reached his target.

Darren slowly raised his sword and aimed it directly at Bruce. Meanwhile, Clive's face turned red as all

his blood rushed into his brain. He wanted to stop Darren, but he couldn't. Furious and disgusted at his

disability to save his disciple, he puked out a mouthful of blood.

Without hesitation, Darren swung his sword at Bruce.

"Bang!" The sound of something colliding with something hard resounded in the air.

To everyone's shock and amazement, Darren did not swing his sword at Bruce. Instead, he swung it

towards the ground by Bruce's side and stabbed it into the earth.

"We have a winner! Darren wins!"

Holy Lord Landon announced in a composed manner. Everybody around the battle ring heard it clearly.

The Ancient Families had lost the game.

The three chiefs of the Ancient Families looked pale as a sheet. As Landon's words echoed in their

ears, their minds turned into a total mess. They found the result of the fight totally unacceptable. So

much so that they could not even think of anything in that moment.
