Ancient Tears BloodLine

Chapter 697 Part 1: Zack vs Collins

From MC's perspective:

Goodwill City-stadium,

Both of us walked inside the platform and stood opposite each other. Right after, the invisible barrier starts to cover the platform.

Meantime, I started considering my options. Apart from the lightning attack, I got blood fists and soul attacks.

The Supreme Elders are here. It's not wise to use the blood method. Don't forget, Jonathan, he will notice it for sure. He is going to access my duel for sure.

A quick gleam flashes in my eyes. I can't use the blood element method. But it's different for the soul attack technique.

It was given to me by the teacher. Even Jonathan won't raise any questions regarding it.

By that time, the barrier had covered the platform. The referee gave the signal right away.

Collins JL brought his weapon forward. The weapon blade releases an intense orange flame.

Seeing that my eyes gleamed with a twinkle.

"A weapon user?" I said in my heart. So far I haven't seen anyone use the weapon to fight. But his element is rather ordinary. It's not a special flame or mutated one.

He might be using a weapon to increase his combat ability. The weapon of his choice made me intrigued. It's a sword as well.

Swish!

Collins exploded with great speed. Seeing that he took the initiative to attack. I became ready as well.

But instead of using the black sword. I raised my right hand and started pointing my forefinger at him.

"Lightning Finger Technique," I released the 1st stage of finger attack. The next second, a purple beam released from the finger and shot at the opponent.

Boom!

A clear air-tearing sound can be heard. Everyone saw a purple straight line flash before their eyes.

Collins's expression turned solemn. He brought his sword forward to block the attack.

When the purple beam hits the blade.

Boom!

The next second, an explosion occurs. It sounded like a thunderclap. The smoke instantly covers the platform.

Collins was thrown backward by the impact. He felt his hands go numb for a second. He heard a ringing sound in his ears because of the explosion.

The explosion caused some of the lightning sparks to hit his face. His hair stood up and his face was scorched black.

The lightning sparks failed to cause permanent damage because of his Super Elite body.

On the other hand, I took a few steps backward. The impact forced me to retreat. Before the smoke could disappear. I started attacking again.

This time I shot the 2nd stage of the lightning finger move.

A purple beam again flashes before everyone's eyes inside the platform. Collins had no other choice but to bring up the sword again.

The Sword blade was in an unknown condition. Collins has no time to check it.

Seeing that another beam came towards him. He brought the sword forward to defend again.

Boom!

An explosion occurs this time as well. Collins was pushed close to the barrier. His clothes and face were even more scorched.

His sword blade has taken even more toll. He saw there was no damage. But he can't tell how long it's going to last.

This time the lightning sparks left him with skin injuries. If it was a direct hit, he could have been deeply hurt.

At the same time, this explosion has increased the smoke again. The smoke has become denser making it difficult for ordinary warriors to see.

On the other hand, my eyes flickered. After stabilizing myself, I used the lightning phantom technique to reach the opponent.

Swish!

Purple arcs covered my legs before I disappeared from the spot. Everyone saw some purple sparks.

Collins has been keeping an eye on Zack.

Suddenly, his pupil shrank. He has just taken the time to stabilize himself. But the opponent is not giving him time to breathe.

Collins uses his special technique. The famous bronze skin starts to appear.

Outside,

The majority of them don't know what's happening. But some Elite and Super Elite Warriors can see that the confrontation is happening.

Jonathan was among the spectators. His face is full of surprise. As expected Zack has improved so much in his opinion.

"He has seen some development in that incomplete finger technique," He said in his heart.

He can see that the power output coming from the lightning-finger technique was not ordinary. He thinks that the incomplete technique comes from the inner post as well.

Inside the block,

Everyone is carrying different expressions. The people of the Viper Academy are happy. They can see that Collins has no way to defend lightning power.

"This duel has no suspense," Rebecca said in her heart. She is hoping that Zack will not waste the essence unnecessarily.

"He is going to win," Laverne said with a smile.

Ernest raised his eyebrows. Looking at the duel, he said in a low tone, "Everyone knows that he can win as long as he has essence left."

"But the real problem will appear when he runs out of essence completely," He added.

Hearing that Laverne nodded her head.

Seamus Dave, Vina Potkins, and others can see the same problem.

On the Silver Clouds Academy side, Dean Cooper's eyes flash with a hint of jealousy.

Their academy is known for having the largest number of Special element students. They have recruited some rare elements such as light element warriors.

It's just the lightning element warriors are hard to find. Their academy has failed to recruit Zack during the selection.

But it can't be helped. They can't snatch Federation Warrior.

Supreme Elder McCarthy was struck with sudden realization. "Don't tell me the powerhouse has something to do with the kid," He said in his heart.

He also connected the dots with the Hunter League incident. His expression turned grave.

Then he turned towards Viper Academy's side for a moment before returning to normal.

"The Viper Academy is going to rise," He said in his heart. He doesn't have evidence to prove his assumption. But his instinct has always been right.

The lightning kid was not an ordinary warrior. Now he has become more glad with his decision earlier.
