By the time Kiyu finished speaking, Severin and Janik took their positions on the arena. A stern


    expression appeared on Janik’s face as he nced at the young man who had rebuked Thorold’s offer.


    In


    a city where practitioners were striving to align themselves with Thorold and gain entry to the Deifirm


    Sect, Severin’s rejection and subsequent roughing–up of the Gahrr’s honorary elder was a sort of


    anathema to Janik. It did not sit well with Janik at all, and his expression naturally became sour as he


    looked at Severin.


    With his cold gaze locked onto Severin, Janik sneered, “It was pretty bold of you to disrespect my


    family’s


    scion like that. Well, let’s see what you’re made of then!”


    In an instant, the rumble of thunderbolts emanated from Janik’s body Thunderous echoes were heard


    as


    several silver tentacles bearing fangs and ws surrounded him. It was a hair–raising sight for some.


    Spectators marveled at the thunderbolts that were manifested, and they looked on in awe at the electric


    serpent–like creatures slithering all over Janik’s body.


    “Isn’t this the Gahrrs‘ Violet Thunderbolt Fist? It’s a formidable technique!”


    “I can feel my hair stand on end even though we’re some distance away from the arena!”


    Severin, unfazed by the thunderous lightning, observed quietly and maintained hisposure. He


    mumbled to himself, “He has sufficient aura, and hisbat technique appears to be a Sun–grade


    high- rank technique! A practitioner of the same level might find it hard, and he could evenunch a


    counterattack with this technique! It’s such a shame that he had to run into me today.”


    Based on the aura emanating from Janik, Severin concluded right away that victory was all but certain.


    Meanwhile, Janik felt a surge of anger when he saw how nonchnt Severin was.


    “Die!” he roared, and a lightning spear was hurtled toward Severin at incredible speed. The air


    reverberated with the sound of the spear, and it carried a terrifyingly strong aura.


    Severin eventually lifted a finger when the spear was getting close, He raised his hand, delivered a


    sun- like sh with his sword, and cut through the lightning spear with little effort. His ease in dispelling


    the attack caused Janik’s expression to change drastically. He finally realized that Severin’s strength


    had far


    outssed his!


    As the Gahrrs‘ Great Elder, he had gained much experience in past bailles and considered shifting to


    closebat due to the ineffectiveness of normalbat. The Violet Thunderbolt Fist, which was


    unique to the Gahirrs, focused on sharp attacks that could be lethal in close encounters.

    Janik exerted some force through his legs and charged toward Severin like a cheetah closing in on its


    prey. “Violet Thunderbolt Fist” came his resounding yell. As he aimed the punch at Severin, the crackle


    of lightning rods appeared in the air. A fist–sized lightning seal was then produced as it hurtled straight


    toward Severin.


    Severin did not flinch at the technique. Armed with the True–Sun Fist and Gigantic Hand Crusher,


    close- quarter confrontations were advantageous to him! As he raised his hand, his fist emanated a


    fiery glow while simultaneously exuding an intimidating aura!
