Chapter 676 Overwhelming
The moment the match started Allan walked toward Erste without any guard he was going to show the newbie the difference between their levels. Erste looked at Allan weirdly as he spotted several openings.
'Is he luring me or is this some trick?... Whatever, it doesn't matter if it's a trap let's see what he has in store for me.'
Allan who was waiting to see what Erste was going to do suddenly felt something was wrong, before he could figure out what was wrong, Erste's fist was already right in front of him almost touching his nose. Allan couldn't even see the initial movement of Erste's fist before it arrived in his face.
"I see, you weren't trapping me you were just looking down on me. Stop playing around if you don't get serious this spar will not be fun for either of us."
Erste slowly backed away as he waited for the stunned Allan to get into a fighting stance. The people on Allan's team were also stunned by what they saw. They thought that Jack and his team were exaggerating when they explained how skillful Erste was, but even now that they saw it they still couldn't believe it. That punch Erste did was just a simple punch without any mana, but the way Erste did it made it look like his hand blurred for a second.
Allan finally got his bearings back as he looked at Erste and gnashed his teeth. He wanted to teach the newcomer a lesson but now he was taught a lesson in front of his not only his team back Jack's as well. Allan calmed himself as he showed a smile before speaking.
"You're better than expected, did you practice any martial art before coming here?"
"I did," Erste answered in a rather nonchalant manner.
"You caught me off guard there, but now I'm going to come at you a little bit more seriously."
"As it should be, don't disappoint me."
Allan frowned after hearing Erste's reply, he then got into a fighting stance as he circulated his mana throughout his body. Seeing Allan's stance Erste nodded his head in approval. Allan dashed forward at a speed that was hard to follow with the naked eye, and he then did a jumping kick. Erste evaded simply by stepping to the side.
Allan who landed on the ground quickly did a back kick, but Erste evaded again and casually kicked Allan's foot which he was using for balance. Allan was about to fall face-first onto the ground, but he stopped himself using his arms and in that position began lifting both his legs and started kicking.
Before Allan could gain any momentum Erste did a football kick aimed at Allan's head, but before Erste's kick could connect Allan pushed himself upwards did a mid-air somersault, and distanced himself from Erste.
The two had finished their first few exchanges, Liam and Tala who were not really versed in martial arts thought that Allan's flashy style was cool and he had the upper hand, on the other hand, the others knew who truly had the upper hand.
"Surely that's not all you've got, how can that level of attack even harm those so-called New Gods? I don't know why you're just such a crude fighting style, but it should be clear to you now that you won't be able to beat me with that. My skill in martial arts is above you, so you better change the way you attack."
"You really have a way of getting on one's nerves you know that?"
"I was just stating a fact, if it got on your nerves that just means you know it's the truth."
"Fine, since you want me to fight you seriously then I will!"
Allan's mana burst outward as well as his killing intent which was aimed at Erste. Allan's mana then started to envelop him with a blue glow looking like it was crackling. Seeing the change in Allan's demeanor, Jack and the others who were watching started feeling nervous. Allan might accidentally break the mana barrier and seriously injure Erste, Jack wanted to stop the fight but then he saw Erste's expression.
On Erste's face was no nervousness, there was not a single trace of it as Erste was smiling a vicious-looking smile.
"Finally! Show me everything you've got!"
Erste who was not using mana since the start of the fight started circulating it throughout his entire body enhancing his physical prowess. Allan disappeared from Erste's sight, but by instinct, Erste quickly defended his body by using his hands, it was then he felt something hard hit his forearms.
Allan was attacking Erste from different angles with such speed that alongside his mana wrapping around him made Allan look like a bolt of lightning. Up, down, right, left, in front, in the back, Allan was attacking Erste with such speed and ferocity but despite that, Erste was able to block or evade all of the incoming attacks.
'He really is something else... Still, this fight is over, as long as I keep attacking even if he is blocking it with the setting we input in the device the mana shield should dispel after a few more strikes, and I would win... I didn't really want to win in such a way, but... A win is a win.'
Allan was about to increase the intensity of his attacks when he faintly heard Erste mumbling to himself.
"So that's how you do it."
Erste's mana suddenly burst out in a similar fashion as what Allan did, and the same as Allan Erste's own mana started to envelop him. Erste's mana was pure white emitting an exceptional level of heat. If you were at least half a meter away from Erste you could feel a heat that felt like it could burn everything.
Seeing this scene Allan unconsciously stopped attacking as he could not believe his eyes, and so did the other people watching.
"That's mana emission and mana coating... Don't tell me you learned it after seeing it once..."
"Yeah, thanks for showing it to me. Come on then let's continue!"
Allan and the others could not believe their ears, Erste really learned two techniques that took everyone else years to master with just a glance.
'This f*cking? monster...'
