Wynona wielded Caelandor in her hand and unleashed its Sword Energy to protect her body.
James had no choice but to summon the Chaos Sword.
With a thought, a light emerged before him and gathered into a cyan-colored long sword. James grabbed onto the sword, and his
aura instantly skyrocketed.
He slashed out the Chaos Sword, unleashing several Sword Energies. At the same time, countless clones of himself spread
across the arena and neutralized Wynona’s attacks.
Suddenly, the clones merged with the Sword Energies in front of Wynona. James reemerged and slashed the Chaos Sword at
Wynona.
Wynona quickly raised Caelandor to defend herself.
James exerted force, causing Wynona to step backward continuously.
Their confrontation lasted a few seconds.
Ultimately, the Caelandor was defeated and was sent flying into the air.
James seized the chance to close the gap but stopped when his sword’s tip was a centimeter away from Wynona’s eyebrows.
Although James had stopped at the last second, the powerful Sword Path Power inside the Chaos Sword leaked
out and blasted Wynona into the distance. She plummeted from the sky and smashed into the ground.
Boom!
The ground was shattered by the impact and scattered into the air.
James withdrew his sword and floated above the arena. He lowered his gaze to Wynona, who was buried under the rubble.
After facing defeat, Wynona’s Spiritual Power had weakened drastically, and she struggled to pick herself up from the ground.
Her hair was disheveled, and her body was covered in blood. Her calm and elegant demeanor was long gone.
The powerhouses spectating from outside the arena stood up.
The Verde Academy’s Headmaster, some elders, and disciples from the other academies stared bewilderedly at James.
Nobody expected James to defeat Wynona, who wielded Caelandor.
“Amazing!”
After a brief silence, the audience marveled and exclaimed at the battle’s outcome.
James slowly descended from the sky. He landed in front of Wynona and asked, “Are you alright?”
Wynona glanced at James but refused to reply. Under the countless gazes, she dragged her injured body toward the Caelandor
Sword, picked it up, and walked out of the arena. She approached Lothar hanging her head like a child who had made a
mistake.
“I’ve embarrassed you, sir. I’ll enter seclusion instantly and not leave for a hundred thousand Epochs.”
After apologizing, she disappeared from the area.
Wael, on the other hand, entered the arena. He patted James on the shoulder and praised him, saying, “Good job! You’ve made
the Tempris House proud.”
James smiled faintly in response.
It was easy for him to defeat Wynona. In fact, he still had many trump cards up his sleeves. Wynona would have died by his
sword if it were a life-and-death duel.
Wael pulled James over to Lothar and said smilingly, “I believe the Boundless Rock should be returned to us, right, Sir Lothar?”
Lothar nodded lightly and said, “According to the rules, the Boundless Rock should be returned since James had won.”
Wael continued, saying, “By the way, I’ll be stepping down from my position and passing it on to James. He will act as the new
Head of Tempris. I plan to head out on an adventure for some time.”
Wael wanted to use the opportunity to break the news.
