Chapter 163
"Fall of Eternity, Infinite Swords!" vin, bracing against the savage aura of the de, forcefully
raised his ancient sword. The towering sword''s energy surged to the heavens, boiling and
tumultuous.
It was a spectacle of unparalleled brilliance, heart-stirringly magnificent.
The sword’s energy was unmatched, once again obliterating all traces of the de’s aura,
dispersing the dark tide, and even shaking the iron de.
Yet Cedrick remained unaffected; his battle fervor was only intensifying. Amidst tumultuousbat,
he grasped his iron de, uniting man and weapon, and charged once again at vin. His speed
and the ferocity of his de grew with each moment, and his pitch-ck eyes locked onto vin,
his face expressionless. His relentless strikes were a blur of cold light, leaving no trace of his figure,
just the zing fury of his de’s gleam.
vin was fearless, his fighting spirit was overflowing like a torrent, and his blood boiled within him.
He swung his sword to cleave the air. The ng of metal and the shattering of forces echoed
without ceasing.
Battle! Onward, without retreat, this was thebat he craved!
The mountaintop was crumbling as the sword''s energy and de''s aurapletely tore apart the
summit. The light piercing the sky was blindingly intense, the dark energy cold and bone-chilling.
The fierce shes and ruthless assaults not only made vin and Cedrick''s fight clingingly mad but
also had the onlookers'' blood boiling, their cheers echoing everywhere.
This was the battle of The sh of Eight Orders, the tournament of the strongest new generation of
the Eight Orders of the Nortnds.
Absolutely magnificent!
Not only did many Novice Mages sigh in their own inferiority, but even many Advanced Mages felt
endless emotion. Truly, these were talents cultivated by the Eight Orders, too powerful indeed.
Spies from various nobels busily took notes; these Protégés were too strong, and they had to be
closely watched in the future.
Jackar and Jevan furrowed their brows. Their attention was solemnly fixed on the mountaintop
battlefield. They were prodigies nurtured by their respective Organizations and were undoubtedly
strong. They were confident they could match this intensity, but watching the disheveled and
ceaseless battle between vin and Cedrick, they felt theycked something—a certain
decisiveness and madness, a confidence and wildness, and a resilience born of living and breathing
for the art ofbat.
Amidst the billowing dark energy and sky-spanning de aura, vin once again summoned used
''Earthtorrent Greatde.'' The ancient sword crashed down like a mighty mountain, and the battered
summit buzzed as it sank. Yet Cedrick did not dodge; man and de seemed as one. With no fancy
techniques, his strikes were wide and powerful, yet concealed myriad deadly threats.
Sword and de collided once more, each exchanging a lightning-fast confrontation. It appeared
ordinary, but in an instant, an indescribable pressure filled the air. The sword gleam and de light
shot into the sky, then scattered chaotically. The interweaving of intense light and dark tide formed a
strange and magnificent sight.
Both vin and Cedrick were sent flying, coughing blood, like withered leaves drifting to the
ground, tumbling off the mountaintop. Still, their eyes shone with an exceptional brightness. In mid-
air, they twisted their bodies andnded firmly on the mountainside, then rushed back up at full
speed, leaping back towards the peak.This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
Ancient Sword against Iron de! vin shed with Cedrick!
The sound of theirbat was incessant. The dark de''s gleam pierced the sky, and the dark
energy gushed like raging torrents in the heavens. vin was undaunted, his ancient sword''s
techniques unfurling one after another. The sword light was dazzling, and the cold gleam was
blinding like thousands of brilliant beams, beautiful yet terrifying. Every stroke of his sword had the
power to shatter any barrier!
The fierce battle continued unabated. Amidst the tide of des and the gleam of swords, vin and
Cedrick fought over a hundred rounds without a clear victor.
They were equally matched! What an exhrating duel!
This intense battle was passionate for the onlookers, while vin and Cedrick themselves fought
with perilous excitement.
The Protégés watched with bated breath, anxious for them, keeping close tabs on the battle''s
progress. They knew that vin had a trump card, the fearsome Shadowlord''s Wrath, and they also
believed that Cedrick had secret techniques. Both were looking for the perfect moment, seeking
their opponent''s subtle weaknesses amidst the fiercebat.
Roald clenched his fists in the shadows, his face grim. He found it hard to ept that vin, whom
he had looked down upon just a month ago, was now shining so brightly in The sh of Eight
Orders, earning the des of various Organizations and having his name remembered
throughout the city. Could this really be vin?
Semar and other Protégés were shocked. vin had be so powerful. In Cobalt Strike, he was
mocked by everyone, yet in Warriors'' Vale, he captured the attention of the Eight Orders. Such a
stark contrast was difficult to ept. The person they once scorned had be an existence they
could not contend with. It’s like vin turned the new generation Protégés of Cobalt Strike into a
joke.
Mari and the others suddenly remembered what vin had said on the day he entered Warriors''
Vale. "I aim to be in the top five!"
At the time, it seemed like a joke, just a casual remark. However, looking back on it now, they
realized that he had made his decision that very day.
The battle atop the mountainsted for nearly half an hour. vin and Cedrick were covered in
blood; as the sword and de moved, besides the thunderous sound and the surging sword''s
energy and de gleams, they also created immense pressure. The capiries under their skin
burst from the force, and they spat out who knew how much blood. Both were too stubborn to
waver, and determined to fight to the death!
