Chapter 233.4: Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon [Part 4]

'Looks like holding back is no longer possible,' Lux sighed internally as he looked at the four-meter tall flying tiger that was eyeing him with a ferocious gaze. Clearly, he had pushed Einar to the edge, after having his balls crushed by him.

He was very tempted to drink a healing potion, but potions were no longer allowed for use in this stage of the tournament. They were only allowed to use them after the battle was over, or get one of the clerics to heal their injuries.

Just like Einar, Lux didn't think that he would be showing his trump cards so early in the tournament. Even so, he was up against one of the Four Kings, who stood above all the other geniuses in the current generation.

Lux simply had no choice but to fight with everything he had for a chance to advance in the tournament.

'I only have one shot at this,' Lux forcefully swallowed the blood that was rising in his throat, as he stood up to prepare for one final attack.

Orion stepped in front of Lux, allowing his Master to lean on him.

"Doppelganger," Lux said through gritted teeth.

Immediately two clones that looked exactly like the chubby teenager appeared beside him.

Both clones held onto Lux's shoulder, supporting him, while Orion positioned himself behind the three and took a fighting stance.

Einar, might have taken the form of a Flying White Tiger, but the injury he received from Lux was still there, making it extremely hard for him to move, he was only using the strength of his Bestial Form to stand straight, as he prepared to unleash his strongest attack.

The Giant White Tiger opened its mouth wide and a silver orb of light appeared in front of it. Einar was gathering a huge amount of magical energy before unleashing his special ability, Hyper Blast, which was just as powerful as a Dragon's Breath.

This was a trump card that Einar was saving for the final match, but was forced to use it now as a last resort.

"Enjoy your stay in the afterlife!" Einar shouted via telepathy as he unleashed his strongest attack. "Hyper Blast!"

The powerful silver beam of light shot out towards the three chubby teenagers, who had also opened up their mouths and were preparing to unleash their strongest attack as well. In truth, Lux could have ordered Orion to use his Duel [EX] to cancel the Barbarian's attack.

However, a part of him wanted to face Einar's attack head-on, proving that he was no longer the weakling he once was in the past.

"""Dragon's Breath!"""

Three red beams met the silver beam that Einar had unleashed and a sight that had never before seen in the tournament flashed in front of everyone's eyes.

As the two colors of light pushed against each other, the barriers that surrounded the arena started to crack.

Alexander, who sat on the main seat of honor, stood up and pointed his finger to the arena.

Immediately the cracks disappeared, and several layers of barrier reinforced the existing barrier, preventing it from falling apart.

Slowy, but surely, the silver light was starting to get pushed back by the three red beams that were ganging up on him.

With one ferocious roar, Einar unleashed all of his magical energy at once, trying to push back the attack that was nearing his location.

In the end, a loud explosion took place as the energy beams reached their limit and detonated against each other. The arena trembled, but the shields protecting the audience held firm, preventing any magical energy from leaking out.

When the dust cloud cleared, Einar, who was still in his Flying Tiger form, could be seen at the edge of the arena in a very sorry state.

Lux, and his clones, on the other hand, were all caught up by Orion. The Rock Golem had used his body to prevent his Master, as well as his clones, from being blown away.

Judge Dredd, who had created a barrier for himself was fine, but his clothes were now all covered up in dirt, making him look like a beggar.

"Orion, finish him," Lux ordered.

With a loud shout, Orion charged at the Flying White Tiger who was struggling to prop himself up from the ground.

The Rock Golem pulled his hand back, making the ground tremble under his feet. When he was only a dozen meters away from his target, Orion leapt up to the air and prepared to unleash his strongest move.

"Gaia Smash!"

Einar looked up at the Rock Golem with unwillingness in his eyes. He no longer had the strength to dodge, or block the attack that was coming straight at him from above.

However, before the Rock Golem could unleash his full-powered blow, a hand held his wrist, preventing him from completing the punch.

The one who stopped Orion was none other than Judge Dredd, who was still covered in dirt.

"This battle is over," Judge Dredd. "Winner! My Daddy!"

Fiora, who was seated in the VIP Room reserved for their family, stood up from the couch in shock as she stared at her brother's sorry state. Although the Flying White Tiger stood tall and proud, its eyes had already glazed over.

Einar had lost consciousness while standing up, prompting Judge Dredd to stop the match before the young Barbarian received more injuries from his opponent, who had decided to deliver the Coup de Grace.

A few seconds later, a deafening cheer erupted from the audience as those who watched the battle applauded the two fighters for showing them an unforgettable match.

The Clerics, as well as other Medical personnel, rushed towards the young Barbarian who had now reverted to his original form.

Blood could be seen staining his pants, and the Clerics focused their healing abilities in that area because they knew that this was where Einar was injured the most.

As for Lux, only a single Cleric went to check his condition.

"That was an amazing fight," the Cleric said before placing his hand on Lux's chest in order to stabilize the injury. Only a High-Ranking Cleric was able to mend, or reattach damaged bones, but they were currently too busy gathering Dragon Balls for Einar in order to create a miracle.

(A/N: Gathering Dragon Balls to make a wish for Einar to regain his balls kekeke.)

Right now, the young Barbarian no longer had the balls to continue because they were literally crushed during his exchange with Lux. if not for the presence of a High-Ranker Cleric, he would have been damaged for life.

Fortunately, it didn't end in the worst case scenario or else the Mordosk Family might have declared a Blood Feud against the chubby teenager, making him their public enemy number one.

The next match was delayed for half an hour so they could ensure that Einar's condition was stable.

The young Barbarian was a Prince, so they didn't have the leisure of treating him as an ordinary contestant, or else, things might get messy with the Barbarian Kingdom who backed him up.

As Lux was carried away from the Arena, the remaining three kings, and the Five Overlords, watched him from afar.

However, they were not the only ones that paid close attention to Lux. The other influential factions, noble families, as well as the Royal Families of the Six Kingdoms that supported Barbatos Academy were also watching.

These powerful individuals had immediately ordered their subordinates to investigate the chubby teenager's background.

If they were to make such a promising youth their subordinate then they were willing to pay any price to bring him under their wing.

Nero, who had a frown on his face, once again used the monocle to look at the chubby teenager.

'The results are the same,' Nero thought with disappointment. 'He is not Lux.'

He then shifted his attention to the VIP platform where Iris was seated. There he found her hugging the red-headed Half-Elf as she jumped alongside him, creating a weird, yet funny, scene.

As if sensing his gaze, the Half-Elf that was hugging Iris, glanced in Nero's direction and gave him a mischievous grin.

It was a grin filled with many hidden meanings, and one of them was contempt, which Eiko felt for those who were aiming for her Mama's hand in marriage, which she didn't, and would never approve of.
