Chapter 142


    A breeze swirled around Lylian, holding her aloft as if she were a dazzling sprite. She stood proudly


    in the air, her breath a light snort, looking down on vin with relentless intent and her sword''s


    soaring energy .


    vin was astonished. Could she actually fly?


    Swoosh! Lylian dove down at him, unleashing a flurry of sword shadows. Despite her youthful


    appearance, her attacks were fierce and overwhelming, forcing vin to retreat continuously.


    As she almostpletely dominated the fight, it took her just over a dozen exchanges to forcefully


    push vin back.


    "Is this all you''ve got? I''m disappointed. Time to end it now!" Lylian cried out coldly, as the sword''s


    energy around her boiled over, engulfing vin in a storm of blinding light.


    vin kept vanishing and reappearing, but Lylian soared above the ground, relentlessly pursuing


    him. Just as a tide of the sword''s energy threatened to engulf vin, a true silver longsword burst


    forth from within the sword''s energy, aiming straight for vin''s brow. The air was filled with the


    tumultuous roar of the sword''s energy, bing wild and fierce.


    Such astonishing Sword Skill, such a terrifying move!


    The crowd held their breath, fixated with tension. This girl was frighteningly strong.


    vin had nowhere to dodge. As his foot touched the edge of the dueling tform, he reached out


    and grabbed the Dawnedge de. The beast’s hide covering shattered, and the sword''s radiance


    burst forth like lightning, piercing through the storm of the sword''s energy to sh with the silver


    longsword in midair.


    Tip against tip!


    The Dawnedge de erupted with a sky-shattering sword''s energy, instantly shattering Lylian''s and


    firmly blocking her silver longsword. In the next instant, vin forcefully withdrew his sword, his


    body flipped, and his right leg swept out like an iron whip toward Lylian.


    Caught off guard, Lylian scrambled to block but was struck on the shoulder by vin''s foot. She


    cried out in shock, was harshly flung back, and nearly stumbled uponnding.


    The sudden turn of events silenced the crowd.


    vin stood tall on the dueling tform, sword in hand, his presence fused with the sword''s energy


    around him. Gone was any hint of ordinariness; he was sharp and powerful. The Dawnedge de


    vibrated with rity in his grip as if sensing its owner''s will to strike again.


    Cedrick and the others exchanged looks, confused. vin could wield a sword? That was news to


    them.

    "Fine sword!" the Commanders on the main stage nodded in unison, recognizing the extraordinary


    nature of the ancient sword in vin''s hand. This was not against the rules; any weapon that wasn''t


    exceptionally sensational could be used here. Of course, a Novice Mage level mage couldn''t handle


    too mighty a weapon anyway. And Lylian''s silver longsword was no ordinary de either.


    "Who the hell said he only had brute strength?" someone grumbled in the stands. Whichever


    sources imed that vin''s performance was only due to his brute force was clearly wed; his


    Swordsmanship was evidently strong.


    "I challenge you, and if I win, the sword is mine," Lylian dered, not discouraged but rather ignited


    with fighting spirit. She lunged with her sword without waiting for vin''s consent.


    vin held nothing back as he met her head-on.


    ng! The deafening ring of their swords shing resonated throughout the arena as they engaged


    in an increasingly fierce duel.


    Sword met sword, sparks flew, and the mighty sword''s energy raged across the tform, spraying


    everywhere like rampant lightning. It was a sh of the mighty, the sound and fury astonishing.


    Lylian''s swordsmanship was exceptional, and her ability to fly gave her a distinct advantage. Yet,


    vin''s movements bore a wildness, unyielding and direct, his assaults relentless. His


    swordsmanship was fluid and swift, effectively countering Lylian''s offensive. They appeared evenly


    matched.


    Lylian was a prodigy of Stage IX Novice Mage level, cultivated with great effort by the Floral


    Enchantress herself. vin could be her equal? This scene was more astounding than thest.


    Their battle grew more intense as the sword''s energy pierced the sky. The sh was fierce beyond


    measure.


    "You are worthy of being my opponent. Thornling Sword Skill, fifth phrase, Fullmoon''s Chilling


    Forest!" Lylian cried out, tumbling through the air, dodging vin''s attack and counterstriking with a


    fierce, brisk wind around her. Her longsword traced arcs of white light, the sword''s energy surging


    like tumultuous waves, unstoppable.


    vin charged forward, his sword aimed straight ahead. As he sprinted, a dense web of lightning


    suddenly erupted around him, sharp and chaotic, drawing gasps from the crowd as it rapidly


    coalesced into a meter-long Shockwave Cobra, coiling around him and hissing to the sky.


    "Wow!" voices eximed, most onlookers rising to their feet.


    The Shockwave Cobra hissed, robust and lifelike, like a true Magi-Monster, emitting a piercing,


    powerful call.


    Lylian was inwardly shocked. What secrets did this man hold?
