Collier shouted, "Ice sh!"


    Three de energies came from three different directions, but as they were about to reach Augheimer, they merged into one, transforming into a de energy storm that rushed toward Augheimer.


    Augheimer clenched his jaw and formed a shield. He forcefully resisted the de energy storm. Two powerful energy masses collided. The storm swiftly destroyed Augheimer''s shield, with the violent de energy tearing apart his clothes and leaving over a hundred wounds across his body.


    "Argh!"


    Augheimer threw his head back to yell, but thankfully, the shield stopped most of the de energy storm. Augheimer stood still in the storm for two seconds before it passed him by. Augheimer then pushed forward and turned to a shadowy figure in mid-air at the end.


    "Die, Augheimer!" yelled Collier.


    Collier sprinted towards him and leaped into the air, aiming a powerful double kick at Augheimer. Augheimer then grabbed hold of Collier''s legs, and the two flew toward the edge of the arena.


    "Haha!" Collierughed, then said, "Don''t waste your efforts, Augheimer. You lost."


    Collier''s legs erupted with a surge of powerful energy after he said that. The two were at the edge of the arena by then. Augheimer held tightly onto Collier''s legs, then suddenly with exerted force, he lifted Collier overhead and threw him with a powerful flip. Collier was hurled off the tform, crashing heavily onto the ground.


    Augheimer hooked onto the fence of the arena with his feet, so he was dangling in mid-air. His body did not touch the ground.


    The referee blew a whistle when he saw that. Augheimer turned and jumped back onto the tform. The referee raised Augheimer''s hand, showing everyone that he had won the fight.


    Outside the arena, after a brief moment of silence, the crowd erupted into enthusiastic apuse. They could not believe that Augheimer managed to secure victory by using physical strength and skill to throw Collier off.


    Everyone believed that Augheimer had won by sheer luck. His clothes were tattered at that moment, and his body was covered with over a hundred wounds. He appeared severely injured.


    Collier was standing below the arena at that moment, and he was filled with rage to see that Augheimer won. He leaped onto the stage and yelled, "I refuse to ept this! Augheimer, I challenge you again, but I won''t ce a bet this time. Do you dare to ept my challenge?"


    The referee looked at Augheimer. Augheimer won the match with his skills, but the rules of the Azure Dragon Trial Grounds allowed for repeated challenges. Augheimer had secured a narrow victory, but he could not avoid Collier''s relentless pursuit.


    Of course, he could choose to forfeit. However, he would lose the chance to im ten thousand gold coins if he did. Every cultivator who steps into the arena was given ten matches toplete.


    The fighter must continue facing them until all ten matches arepleted if a challenger keeps cing bets. Only then can they im their winnings. Otherwise, withdrawing midway would prevent them from obtaining any rewards, even if they won.


    Augheimer nodded and said, "In that case, I''ll battle you again."


    "Ha. It''s your choice. In that case, I''ll battle you again!" yelled Collier.


    He seemed very d. Augheimer was a greedy individual to Collier. He felt like Augheimer disregarded his condition and chose to continue battling for the sake of ten thousand gold coins. He believed such arrogance from Augheimer would only lead to death.


    The referee announced the start of the match, Collier smirked and said, "You managed to survive the first round when I had full confidence in killing you in the first round. However, for this second round, you''ve truly doomed yourself. Prepare to die!"
