Chapter 123
Gwenda cast a disdainful nce at Myke and sneered, "This is getting more and moreughable. A
fellow who''s adyboy is bad enough, but now a servant joins the fray? Does our Cobalt Strike have
no shame?"
The Protégés surrounding the arena burst intoughter. "What''s this, does The sh of Eight
Orders now require ackey to sweep the floors and tend to lodgings? Haha, the Organization
surely thinks of everything."
An Elder scolded vin with a stern look, "Get down from there. Stop this nonsense!"
"vin, don''t shame yourself. Step down," Roald said with a cold frown.
Balder, tugging at vin to the side, said, "vin, let''s wait a moment. Perhaps the Commander
hasn''t—oh... here theye."
At that moment, the Cobalt Strike Commander arrived at the Arena and nced at vin from afar
before ascending the training tform.
"Commander!" The Elder and the various Protégés bowed in respect.
"vin." The Commander''s gaze towards vin was somewhatplex.
"Commander!" vin replied confidently, without a hint of inferiority.
"Commander, vin''s arrival..."
An Elder began to speak but was silenced by a gesture from the Commander. "Gwenda, you may
retire for now."
"What?" Gwenda was taken aback.
"vin will take your ce in The sh of Eight Orders."
"What?" Gwenda''s voice pitched up in disbelief, staring at the Commander.
"vin??" Roald, Cedrick, even Mari, and others were all visibly shaken, thinking they had
misheard.
The five Elders were also taken aback and quickly gathered around the Commander. "Commander,
what is the meaning of this? How can vin rece Gwenda? This... this is too much of a
disparity!"
"vin is stronger than Gwenda and is eligible topete."
"How could vin possibly be stronger than Gwenda?" The five Elders were serious. This was
ridiculous; the difference in strength was vast, and there were social standings to consider. How
could they send a servant to The sh of Eight Orders? Would that not bring shame upon Cobalt
Strike?
"vin, what have you done!" Gwenda, jolted awake by the shock, pointed at vin and screamed.
“Me, reced by vin? An Elite Protégé reced by a servant? Impossible! This cannot be!”
"Sorry," vin shrugged, his only desire being topete. As for who he reced, that was not his
decision to make.
Adirich protested loudly, "Commander! How could vin possibly be qualified topete? A
servant, a mere Stage VI, how could such a one represent Cobalt Strike?"
vin reminded him, "Adirich, remember to show some restraint in public."
"Who the hell are you to talk to me like that? Commander, I protest."
"Defeat him."
Before the Commander could finish speaking, Adirich charged like a tiger. "vin, get out of the first
Arena!"
Searing Poison Fist! Adirich''s right hand clenched like an eagle''s talon. ck mist swirled around
his fingers, a poison fog condensed from magic, vicious and deadly, capable of seeping into one''s
entire Channel of Energy. It was a lethal move.
vin did not dodge or retreat, meeting the attack head-on, his body generating a fierce gale like a
hurricane exploding forth, mming into Adirich.
Pulsar Pike! Though casually executed, the move contained ferocious power. The winds howled
and forcefully repelled Adirich.
Stumbling, Adirich lost his footing as vin swiftly followed, brushing past him. With a solid palm,
vin pressed against Adirich''s abdomen, releasing a tremendous surge of power from his arm,
concentrated at his palm.
With a muffled groan, Adirich was sent flying, tumbling over ten meters across the ground, rolling
uncontrobly until he crashed below the training tform.
"You bastard!" Gwenda suddenly attacked from behind, a de thrusting towards vin''s nape, its
gleam shing like lightning.
"Is this what you call an ambush? You were far too obvious!" vin dodged with a swift sidestep,
leaving an afterimage where he stood, and, without even looking, grasped Gwenda''s throat with a
snap.
The crisp sound echoed through the training tform, as Gwenda was suspended mid-air.Property ? of N?velDrama.Org.
vin''s gaze was cold as steel, focusing on Gwenda''s eyes. His body''s electricity boiled instantly,
converging in his arm and transforming into a Shockwave Cobra that hissed menacingly at
Gwenda, ready to strike at any moment.
Gwenda''s face paled as she struggled against vin''s grip, but the next second, she was knocked
away by the Shockwave Cobra.
The rapid exchange of attacks was a blur, leaving the watching Protégés confused. In the blink of
an eye, Adirich and Gwenda had both been thrown out.
Silence fell over the crowd, so quiet you could hear a pin drop. The Elders and middle-aged
Protégés were shocked, and Roald and others were stunned once again.
What level was vin? How did he possess such explosive strength?
Even if Adirich and Gwenda had not used their full power, they should not have been so easily
dispatched by vin.
Balder''s smile deepened as he looked towards the eastern side of the Arena, where a conspicuous
troop in ck armor surrounded a portly, opulent man standing with his hands behind his back,
nodding slowly at vin''s performance. He gave Balder an approving look, his lips curling into a
smile.
"vin, I’m going to kill you." Adirich struggled to his feet, his abdomen writhing with excruciating
pain.
"Steady yourself before you speak," vin had been unceremoniously forceful with Adirich. His
palm thrust, unleashing the force of three thousand pounds in a single explosive burst.
The breakthrough in his mystical realm and the modifications bestowed upon him by the
Shadowbringer had transcended his physical form, elevating his full-strength strike to an explosive
force of over fifteen hundred pounds. With but a minor call upon the Goliath Force, he could
unleash a devastating breakthrough power.
