powerful.

Romarn, sensing danger, realized the sword’s energy was as potent as the previous lightning storm.
Clenching his teeth, his gaze turned ferocious, he twisted his body mid-air and directed the azure
energy back at himself, puncturing his own formidable body with bloodied results, flinging himself
clear of the deadly sword tide.
"Truly worthy of a Nortnder barbarian. Even his method of battle is brutally relentless."
"It''s quite effective, isn''t it?"
"Be harsh about your foes and harsher on yourself, if you wish to survive."
The Protégés cheered with excitement, admiring Romarn''s fierce assault. To make such a ruthless
decision in the blink of an eye and to be so hard on oneself was not something just anyone could
do. It required battle-hardened experience, enough savagery, and courage. “Indeed,” they thought.
“Lord Viperbane does have some capable individuals.”
But suddenly, the arena''s mood shifted, and an unbelievable scene unfolded.
Marak leaped to his feet, shouting, "Beware!"
Romarn tumbled wildly through the air towards the distant ruins, relieved to have avoided vin''s
Sword Tide, but... just as he was about tond, vin miraculously appeared below him. With
precise judgment and decisive action, vin''s eyes gleamed sharply as he moved like lightning,
grabbing Romarn''s descending ankle. His fingers burst with force, sinking deep into the flesh,
mping down on the ankle bone. At the same time, vin exerted his full strength, his arm veins
bulging, hefting Romarn''s three-meter-tall frame into the air, spinning him around thrice before
smashing him into a massive boulder.
"Boom!!" Romarn shattered the boulder. Dust whirled, and debris scattered everywhere. Every
wound on his body burst open with the impact, and blood sttered everywhere. His agonized
screams echoed throughout the beast pit.
The crowd looked on in shock, mouths agape at the sudden turn of events. Even Marak was caught
off guard and stood frozen. "Stand up!" A guard at Marak''s side sprang up, bellowing with a roar.
Romarn was a tough one, a madman even. The very moment he hit the ground, he arched his back
violently, breaking free from vin''s hold.
However...
"Shadow Sabre!" vin followed closely, stepping into the air, and with a clenched fist, delivered a
barrage of devastating blows, smashing down on Romarn''s head with utter contempt. Crack,
Romarn''s energy shield shattered on the spot. The crisp sound rang throughout the arena. Although
the energy shield had weakened the Shadow Sabre''s force by ny percent, vin''s fist still
hammered Romarn''s head, dazing him and sending him flying backward.
vin''s assault continued. A spinning side kick with a 365-degree arc whistled fiercely, striking
Romarn''s abdomen hard. A series of ferocious attacks dazzled the onlookers, yet they were
precise, quick, and brutal, overturning the tide of battle. Everyone could clearly sense vin''s
overwhelming strength and control over the battlefield.
Who was wilder, and who was stronger? The answer was unfolding before their eyes!
"Argh!!" Romarn, in excruciating pain, erupted with a dazzling blue light from his body. The brilliant
radiance coalesced into a solid, holy armor that enveloped himpletely, offering far more
protection than the energy shield.
"Thunder Echo!" vin closed in swiftly, unleashing a thunderous st that shook the beast pit with
an earth-shattering boom. The entire block of buildings trembled, and every stone and leaf
shuddered. The Protégés of the Citadel and guards of the Mallister family all winced and showed
pained expressions. Romarn was the first to bear the brunt, clutching his head and screaming in
agony, losing his hearing and bing dizzy as both the energy shield and blue aura began to
blur.
vin grabbed Romarn''s head and whirled it around, unleashing a flurry of punches, each one
landing with raw power mixed with thunder. Treating Romarn as a human punching bag, vin
threw dozens of punches, sending him flying over twenty meters. Throughout the ordeal, vin
followed relentlessly, continuing to strike.
Without the blue aura and energy shield''s meager protection, Romarn would have been pulverized
long ago. As it was, the fierce power still prated the light armor, breaking at least ten of his
bones.
It was a brutal beatdown!
Romarn was strong and still had the strength to fight back, but now he was in severe pain, dizzy,
andpletely incapacitated, helplessly enduring vin''s beating. He could still feel, and feel
intensely, but his consciousness was blurred, and his eardrums were ringing.
The Citadel Protégés looked on with grave expressions; they could see that vin wasn''t treating
Romarn as a true opponent. He was truly treating this as a warm-up!
"Romarn! You blighted fool, fight back!" Marak''s face turned sour as he shouted loudly.
