“A good analysis, Mr. Macall. Jared doesn’t have a high cultivation level, but he is capable of holding his own against Windshadow because of the magical items he possesses.” “But it doesn’t seem logical for someone from the mundane world to have so many magical items.”
Even Angus was convinced that Jared stood no chance against Windshadow. “Let’s wait and see. I’m afraid Jared’s true strength is beyond our imagination,” Santiago uttered, his gaze fixed on Jared.
Santiago had been watching when Windshadow bullied Hailey, but according to the rules, he was not allowed to interfere in the fight, not unless Hailey surrendered and Windshadow continued to harass her. If that had happened, Santiago would have the right to make his move.
Therefore, Jared left a good impression on Santiago when he went into the arena to stand up for the latter’s daughter. That was why he was complimenting Jared under such circumstances. “Mr. Chance has yet to take this seriously. Otherwise, Windshadow would have been defeated a long while ago,” Wayne chimed in.
Wayne knew that Jared had a Blazing Tiger as his mount. If Jared were to release the Blazing Tiger and work together with it, Windshadow would not have stood a chance against their combined power at all.
Nevertheless, Jared had yet to release the Blazing Tiger. Wayne guessed that Jared was. afraid that he would make enemies if he were to reveal his true power. Meanwhile, the others turned to glance at Wayne in disbelief.
They were unconvinced by Wayne as Jared was only a Third Level Spirit Replicator. The fact that he could handle an attack from Windshadow was impressive enough, but they remained skeptical about his ability to defeat Windshadow quickly.
Wayne fell silent when he realized none of them believed him. Right then, Chester was the only one still paying full attention to the fight in the arena.
On the other side, Windshadow had a grimace. on his face as he uttered to Jared, “Boy, you’ve got quite an amount of magical items for a mundane world cultivator, but those items of yours will never be able to make up for the gap in power between us.”
Having uttered those words, Windshadow thrust his sword forward, causing a beam of light to swiftly cleave through the air, hurtling towards Jared’s head.
Windshadow appeared to have figured out how invincible Jared’s Golem Body was, so he was now going for Jared’s head instead. If his attack was successful, Jared was going to die right there and then.
“Jared, watch out!” Hailey shouted when she realized Windshadow was going to kill Jared. At the same time, when Chester realized that Windshadow was unleashing a fatal blow on Jared, he quickly turned to Quindon and said, “Mr. Yuchamore, Windshadow has gone against the rules and is planning to kill his opponent!”
The duels in the Secret Realm Conference were only a test to find out which individuals were stronger than the others and a method to gain more resources. No one in the fights bore a grudge against each other, so they were not supposed to kill anyone.
However, Windmist of Gate of Mountain scoffed in disdain and said, “Mr. Gunderson, this is a fight between elites. It’s inevitable for slip-ups to happen during the duel. Moreover, Jared isn’t an idiot. It’s not like he doesn’t know how to avoid the attack.”
“Windmist, what are you talking about? Do you really think your disciple is slipping up? It’s obvious that he wants Jared dead! If anything happens to Mr. Chance, the Gundersons will never let you off the hook!” Chester snapped, glaring viciously at Windmist.
“Hmph! Who do you Gundersons think you are? Your family is nothing in the Gate of Fire. I can’t believe you were bold enough to threaten me!” Windmist spat, not at all threatened by the Gunderson family.
“You-“Infuriated, Chester began exuding a frightening aura. Windmist did the same. “That’s enough. The Secret Realm Conference isn’t a place for the two of you to fight,” Quindon snapped, and the two of them finally stood down, keeping their tempers tightly reined in.
Meanwhile, in the arena, Jared fixated his gaze on the luminous beam emitted by Windshadow’s sword, subtly adjusting his footing as his form underwent a transformative change.
