Chapter 533 Defending Room
Blue Skull had disappeared once again, but this time, no one felt that his name would not be remembered.
Things that he had achieved were not something that others could easily achieve.
As expected, the moment he appeared, he was challenged by a second-year student.
This guy was famous by the name of Radiant Knight. He was a strong fighter.
His mastery of the shield and sword allowed him to have a strong offense and defense.
He used light and plant elements. They both gave him strong offense, defense, and crowd-control abilities.
His two elements complemented each other, which made him a formidable opponent.
Other than this, the effect of his light element made it an interesting battle.
He had a great advantage over Dark and Shadow Element Opponents. Because of this, he was confident.
It was an excellent opportunity for him to become famous by defeating the evil Blue Skull and riding the Dragon of Glory.
Rishi appeared in the battle ring once again. The crowd had gathered again, expecting an exciting battle.
While the audience was excited, some wanted to watch his downfall, some enjoyed the battle and learned, and very few wanted to witness the might of the famous Blue Skull.
He was not interested at all. He was busy practicing his new battle art.
The only thing he disliked was being disturbed when he was busy. His mood was already sore due to receiving a penalty of 200 contribution points.
Despite this, there was no trace of anger, as if nothing mattered to him.
He looked at his opponent with cold eyes, waiting for the battle to start.
He didn't know anything about him besides what he had heard from the crowd.
'Light Element? Knight Class?' These things, instead of making him interested, bore him further.
If the opponent believed that he had a chance against Rishi just because he had a light element, he would be disappointed.
While it might be true that Light Element users were tough to deal with for Shadow Element users,
That was when paired against someone who used traditional Shadow Element spells.
The referee asked both the participants if they were prepared before he announced the start of the battle.
The opponent, wearing shiny golden armor paired with a golden sword and shield, took his stance.
He raised his sword and used multiple buff and defensive skills.
Rishi disappeared from his position and appeared before the opposition. A ring of black appeared around him.
Next, multiple purple-colored magic circles started appearing all over the ring.
Countless chains made up of shadows with purple runs on them started entering the magic circles.
Multiple chains entered from one side, while a giant hand formed from multiple chains appeared from the other side.
Without giving him a chance, the hands began charging at him.
The opponent felt shivers all over his body, but he used a 'brave' buff and recovered.
He summoned a dome-shaped light shield before calling out his light domain.
Multiple vines sprouted and started growing rapidly, covering him.
'Boom!' The hands and shields collided with each other.
The hands made up of chains started withering when they entered the zone opposite.
With a smile on his face, the opponent used 'Ligh Slash' and hit the hands with countless swordslashes.
Beautiful golden sword slashes hit the weakened hands and started breaking them.
The audience cheered when they saw this display by the Radiant Knight. Some even started chanting his name.
But among the shocked faces of the people, the hands recovered, Strange Crstals extended from their fingers.
After this, a layer of frost covered them, making them stronger.
A strange purple fire appeared on the crystal fingertips. It was the Battle Aura of Rishi.
The next moment the hands counterattacked; the first strikes were still somehow defended, but as they attacked again and again,
The barriers shook, and the vines broke apart as the crystals slashed them.
'Ice Enhancement' lowered the effect of the corrosion.
The opponent kept attacking with strong light element strikes while simultaneously using plant element attacks to stop the hands.
However, there were just too many hands. Instead of charging like the previous time, they charged in formations.
The Radiant Knight managed to stop the first wave, but whenever the second wave dealt massive damage,
His shields and barriers broke apart one after another. These hands dealt massive physical damage, which was able to break apart his elemental barriers.
As time passed, he was forced to become a sitting duck and defend himself. He was overwhelmed by the consumption in just a minute, and most of his spells and skills were on cooldown.
He tried to fight them by relying on his sword technique, but soon, he was caught by one of them.
The moment one hand was able to capture him, he saw multiple of them approaching him.
They tore apart his armor and smashed him. He was covered in wounds in the next moment, with multiple broken bones.
At last, he was forced to surrender, as he could not keep up despite his regeneration ability.
Rishi didn't wait a second before leaving the battle ring.
He went to the training field and started training his battle art. The Nether Shard battle art was very easy to master.
He had to keep up with his accuracy and speed while using Nether Shards.
This battle art was tough to master; he had to practice it day and night.
One month passed like this. This month, he also focused on earning contribution points.
He was able to use his Beast Cultivator privilege to easily amass contribution points quickly.
He used $200 to pay the fine, and for the rest, he spent them to join the lectures about rune smithing and using axes.
The axe was one of the heavy weapons that he wanted to master. This was because he may need to rely on it when facing a giant opponent.
He lacked the technique to deal massive damage. Because of this, if he were to fight a large opponent, he would not be able to deal much damage using swords or spears.
Now that he had basic mastery of 'Nether Shard Battle Art' he decided to raid a weak dungeon and test its might.
Without fighting, it would be hard for him to master this technique further.
