The atmosphere on the scene had been as frosty as a nine-day freeze, condensing the surrounding air. When the soul fragments of the third-stage spectral finally dissipated into the air and the last traces of pale blue starlight vanished, the two Three-Star Awakeners, forced into a corner by the intense heat, finally snapped out of their daze.
"Shit. Who was this idiot scaring the hell out of me?" William's face turned exceptionally ugly as he cursed under his breath. However, when he looked at Chad's back, a trace of fear flashed in his eyes. His companion beside him wore a solemn expression, lips tightly pursed, and did not speak.
Noticing that everyone's gazes behind him were slowly gathering on them, William suddenly felt embarrassed, and a surge of unnamed anger rose within him. He spat on the ground. "What are you all staring at?" Having said that, he was about to leave with his companion. Torey and the others, intimidated by the might of the Three-Star realm, dared to be angry but not to speak, staring at them with fiery eyes. Yet, there was nothing they could do.
Just when these two Three-Star Awakeners were speaking rudely and swaggering away, Chad slowly turned around, gazing at them with burning eyes, and said, "Huh? You want to leave? Not that easy." The two of them suddenly stopped and turned around. A smile played on William's lips as he looked at Chad with malice and mocked, "What's up, kid? Do we need to meet some conditions to leave?"
Chad didn't care about the attitude in his tone; his face remained calm as he said indifferently, "It's simple. Whoever just spoke foul words needs to apologize." This sentence instantly made the two Three-Star bigwigs burst into laughter. They looked at each other, their eyes full of disdainful amusement.
"Apologize? Did I hear that wrong? This idiot is asking us to apologize?" William walked directly up to Chad, looking at him provocatively and grinning fiercely. "What if I say no?" Chad's eyelids flipped lightly as he said calmly, "If you don't apologize, then I will do something."
The smile on William's face instantly disappeared, replaced by a dry laugh. The next second, his expression became gloomy and distorted. "A mere Two-Star Awakener, acting all high and mighty in front of me repeatedly. Do you really think I have a good temper?"
Boom. Clusters of spectral souls, resembling ghostly claws, possessed his body. Dozens of pale green, floating soul-like creatures wandered within William. His body became translucent. At the same time, his smile grew even more unbridled and arrogant as his translucent body floated in the air, looking down at Chad and playing with him, saying, "Kid, you just said—who needs to apologize?"
C-Class Ability: Prairie Fire of Ghosts.
This ability could semi-soulify the body and collect the souls of eerie beings or human Awakeners for personal use. A very tricky and bizarre ability. As soon as this person used his ability, circles of chilly air spread through the atmosphere. Torey and the others couldn't help but shiver, their eyes filled with fear and worry. However, the few One-Star Awakeners beside them revealed a trace of confusion in their eyes. Ghostly entanglement... Why did it feel so familiar?
At this moment, Chad's expression, which had remained calm, now carried a hint of coldness. He finally looked up at William floating in the air and simply raised his right hand. Swoosh——
A sharp sound of breaking through the air echoed. Then, a silver-white chain appeared out of thin air, striking through William's body in the blink of an eye. The soul flame burned fiercely, emitting a "sizzling" sound.
"Ah!" William, directly hit and heavily injured, instantly became slightly more solid in his translucent form. Painful cries escaped his mouth. Forced to dispel the possession of his ability, he fell awkwardly from the sky. His companion immediately followed alertly, picked him up, and both of them looked at Chad with caution. The silver-white soul chain, dancing like a dragon in the air, brought them great shock. The arrogance and mockery in William's eyes completely disappeared, replaced by shock and fear. He looked at the chain dancing in front of Chad, and his pupils couldn't stop trembling. What kind of chain is this? Is it some unique spirit weapon?
Even in the entire second zone, his ability had a certain reputation. In his semi-soul form, he could often attack enemies in battle while they had no way to deal with him. Such an invincible ability was actually instantly crushed by this chain. "Something's strange. Let's attack together." At this moment, William no longer dared to be arrogant and immediately made eye contact with his companion, reaching an understanding. He transformed into the semi-soul form of the Prairie Fire of Ghosts again. His companion, on the other hand, pulled out a peculiarly shaped cyan longbow.
With just a glance at each other, they suddenly rushed forward, intending to surprise Chad. The two Three-Star Awakeners attacked together. The commotion was frightening. The other Awakeners from the first zone who were watching couldn't help but exclaim. Torey's palms grew sweaty. Garfield covered his mouth, eyes wide open. They didn't dare to look at what was happening next.
However, Chad hadn't moved his feet from the beginning to the end. Even now, when the two Three-Star Awakeners, who were a stage higher than him, attacked together, he just stood still. His whole body suddenly erupted with explosive infernal flames. Deep within Chad's eyes, infernal flames were already blazing fiercely. He looked at the two Three-Star Awakeners as if they were already dead. With a thought, the infernal flames instantly condensed into countless golden flame daggers. Sharp and exposed, they were all aimed at the two Three-Star Awakeners. Countless small swords emitted the sound of flames burning, "hissing" away. The sky filled with flickering flames illuminated Chad's face, making him look like a demon from hell.
"Go." Chad lightly spoke.
Swoosh! Countless small flame swords shot out like a rainstorm. The scene resembled a rain of fire. The two of them, one unleashing Ghost Claw and the other shooting Piercing Arrow, were both incinerated in the rain of fire swords. Moreover, the momentum of the fire swords didn't decrease. With an unparalleled crushing force, they pierced through all their limbs. Like a raging storm, they were shot down to the ground.
"Ugh." A thick mouthful of blood gushed out.
Chad's footsteps also started at this moment. His expression remained indifferent as he looked down at the two heavily injured and coughing individuals, a faint smile on his lips. "So, the so-called elites of the second zone have this much to offer? You two—dared to act arrogant in front of me?"
Boom. It was like a muffled thunderclap out of thin air. Everyone present couldn't help but tremble in their hearts. They all looked at Chad with awe and disbelief. The third-stage eerie being and the two Three-Star Awakeners had all been crushed. Chad is actually so strong?
