Chapter 67: Tag Team


    "You want to get serious, right?" The Headmaster''s voice echoed throughout the area, and even Arthur couldn''t help but shudder a little. "Then let''s get serious!"


    Whoosh!


    As soon as he finished speaking, the giant warrior silhouette moved its hands and an endless stream of gigantic palm imprints containing fearsome ck-colored energy mmed down, engulfing the entire sky.


    "Damn it!" Arthur, who was full of disdain for his enemies until now, couldn''t help but feel fear in front of the warrior silhouette as he waved his palms, sting hundreds of sword lights out towards the palm imprints while he flew backwards to distance himself from the attack.


    Bang!


    This was a collision of pure strength, as incredibly lethal and destructive energy ripples swept across the scene due to the impact, causing both the air and the earth to tremble violently as a result.


    Crack!


    The sword lights were instantly destroyed by the gigantic palm imprints and Arthur, who was already in the middle of flying away, was knocked back dozens of meters anyways, spitting out blood as he was flung back.


    "A pathetic cultivator like you is trying to beat me? Old man, I''ll show you my true power!" Arthur roared out, causing his energy to surge once again.


    "Oh really? Didn''t you say you were going to take the fight seriously just a few minutes ago? Or did you think we would just forget that you said that?" The giant silhouette, which was now starting to resemble the Headmaster, opened its mouth and spoke with the same tone Arthur was using to speak to the two of them just a few seconds ago with a mocking expression on his face. "You really are shameless, aren''t you?"


    "SHUT UP! Do you really think you''ve won, old man? You''re too naive. Don''t worry, I''ll send you to your grave soon..." Even though he said all that, an ugly expression could be seen on Arthur''s face. He knew he had underestimated his enemies, and he had paid a heavy price for that ignorance. He was humiliated, and he was boiling with anger.


    Boom!


    Suddenly, a strong wind appeared, and powerful spiritual energies swept across the flying Arthur, as a domineering aura swept out, forcing the already unstable warrior silhouette to shake even more violently.


    ''So he really was underestimating us before to think he was this powerful,'' The Second Elder, who was watching from the giant silhouette''s side, was surprised at the aura exuded by Arthur. Although Arthur was an extremely difficult opponent, it seemed that because he had underestimated them, he was partially hiding his true abilities when he fought. In the Second Elder''s eyes, that made him an even more terrifying opponent.


    ''Even if he was an idiot because he had underestimated us, his strength is no joke..''


    If Arthur had used his full strength right from the beginning, he would''ve been able to easily injure the two of them, and the Headmaster probably wouldn''t have been able to use the God Shadow Technique and conjure up the gigantic warrior silhouette. Just the thought of that made the Second Elder tremble. ''We''re incredibly lucky that he didn''t take us seriously from the start.''


    "Take this, old man!" Arthur shouted out loudly and a bright light flickered as a giant sword appeared in his hands, shining brightly as he swung it forcefully towards the giant warrior silhouette!


    "You think I''ll go easy on my enemies like you did? You''d better think twice!" From the giant silhouette''s mouth, the voice of the Headmaster echoed out, and the silhouette stretched its gigantic arm out and performed a grabbing gesture, causing the surroundings behind it to instantly warp as if reality itself was being morphed by it.


    Woosh!


    A gigantic translucent palm imprint suddenly burst out from his hands, and was rapidly moving towards Arthur.


    Swoosh!


    Arthur didn''t slow down his attack even when the giant palm imprint appeared.


    "You''re going to die old man! And when I''m done with you, I''ll take care of your little friend over there. I''ll make sure that he dies in the most painful way possible!"


    Arthur''s eyes lit up as his sword was engulfed in mes, merging with the bright light to form a crimson red glow surrounding it, as he shot forward.


    ng!


    Both attacks collided, and the surroundings were immediately sent into a turmoil, and theyers of clouds in the sky were ripped apart and disintegrated. The impact was huge. Arthur felt a very strong vibration passing through his entire body before he felt an invisible force push him backwards,unching him back ten feet in the air before he could stabilize his body.


    ''This is bad.. He''s more powerful than I thought!''


    Inside the giant warrior silhouette, the Headmaster'' facial expression changed. He raised his head and looked at Arthur, who was catching his breath, in shock. The Headmaster knew that he wouldn''t be able to maintain this ability for too long, and so he wanted to put an end to this as soon as possible. He thought he could defeat Arthur quickly and get this over with, but Arthur was just too strong. His power was scary.


    ''Damn it! I was pushed back? By this old man??''


    The Headmaster wasn''t the only one who was surprised by the oue. On the other side, Arthur was struck with both surprise and shock,pletely baffled by what just happened and he looked at the giant warrior silhouette as if he was looking at a ghost.


    He was proud of his sword, which was a top-tier summoner sword, and he had considered it a weapon that could destroy almost anything. But now, not only was he unable to pierce through his enemy''s defences, his opponent was able to actually push him back. This giant warrior silhouette''s strength was like the power of a godly entity pressing down on him. This hadpletely freaked him out, and if Arthur hadn''t personally witnessed it with his own eyes, then he most likely wouldn''t have believed it. This was really frightening!


    ''The cultivation technique that he''s using most probably has a time limit, like every other cultivation technique.. So if I move around and keep dodging his attacks for long enough, perhaps I can win!''


    As he stared at the giant silhouette in front of him, Arthur''s forehead was covered with sweat. From what he had seen of the giant silhouette''s skills, he wasn''t too confident about dodging the attacks, but he knew that he had to try.


    Boom!


    "Quickly die for me!"


    The Headmaster furiously roared out as the warrior silhouette immediately raised its hand up, and began performing various hand gestures as he unleashed a giant crystal spear, radiating such a brilliant aura that was enough to make even the sky shake.


    Swoosh!


    The spear transformed into a lustrous beam as it flew toward its target, Arthur, with incredible speed.


    "Not good!"


    Arthur, who had already sensed the extremely dangerous aura, instantly summoned his sword once again and shed forward, before dodging backwards to evade the attack.


    "Oh no you don''t!"


    However, although Arthur was quick to respond to the Headmaster''s attack, the Second Elder had appeared right behind him, catching him off guard.


    "You?"


    "What did you say before? That you''ll make sure I die in the most painful way possible? I''d like to see you try!" The Second Elder roared out and immediately unleashed his sword, shing towards Arthur at close range.


    "You insect! Move!" Arthur''s hair was violently fluttering in the wind as he shouted loudly and tried to counter, but the Second Elder''s attack was simply too fast!


    BOOM!


    The Second Elder''s attack struck him right in the chest, producing a tremendous explosion that shook the area. At the same time, the giant silhouette''s crystal spear and Arthur''s sword strike collided with each other, immediately destroying the space in that particr area. The crystal spear easily pushed through the sword strike, and with incredible speed, moved forward.


    Argh!


    A miserable scream sounded out from Arthur''s mouth as he staggered right back to the path of the crystal spear. Arthur, who realized that he was in the spear''s path once again, tried to evade the attack, but it was already toote.


    sh!


    Blood sprayed out like a fountain and Arthur instantly let out a miserable blood-curdling shriek. He was able to prevent the crystal spear from hitting his head, but it sliced off one of his arms instead, almost causing him to stumble and fall down from the air.


    "AHHH! I''LL KILL YOU! I''LL KILL YOU!" Arthur, who was nowpletely enraged, screamed out loudly like a crazy man.


    "You''re finished!"


    The Headmaster''s voice echoed in the air, and the giant silhouette raised its hands again with incredible speed, not allowing the injured Arthur any time to respond as an invisible force pulled him towards the silhouette. Arthur tried resisting, but his injuries were far too serious.


    "Halt! Leave him!" However, right before he could make his move, a rather disharmonious voice interrupted him, and both the Headmaster and the Second Elder''s eyes widened in surprise when they heard the familiar voice, turning around towards the direction the sound came from.


    sh!


    Suddenly appearing in the sky was none other than the Third Elder, and he was holding both ude and Wilfred Beldon, both injured and unconscious!
