Chapter 320 Landon’s Crisis

320 Landon’s Crisis

The number advantage that Landon and his allies had now seemed to be lacking compared to what they were facing.

In order to deal with 5 Rank-C’s with their Rank-D strength, more than 10 students of Rank-D will be required. If they want to defeat Ace Academy, they would need to have at least 50 students to take on 5 of them.

However, on their side, there were only 60 students. Other partic.i.p.ants of Ace Academy were also not easy to handle and they were only able to suppress them due to their number advantage. If they also take that away, then they would surely lose.

Their Rank-C fighters also couldn’t help them as they were busy with their own fights.

They could only hope that Landon and their other Rank-C could quickly take care of Hiro and come to help them. Or else they would face annihilation at the hands of Ace Academy.

-CLANG! -CLANG! -CLANK!

Ren Dreyar was worthy of being the former top student at Ace Academy. Even with the difference in rank, he was able to keep up with Hiro. Nevertheless, he was clearly more exhausted than Hiro who had yet to even fight seriously.

“It’s time!”

Landon, Elijah, and Abigail had finished charging their ultimate move. Thanks to Ren keeping Hiro busy, they were able to charge their attacks to their maximum potential. Even Hiro, who is in Rank-B would be in trouble if he got hit by three of their ultimate skills.

.....

Just when the moment was right, three of them simultaneously launched their attacks.

[ “Sonic Surge” ]

[ “Inferno Charge” ]

[ “Omega Blast” ]

Just one of those attacks would instantly kill a Rank-C. With there being three such attacks, Landon doesn’t believe that Hiro would be able to block it.

Ren Dreyar had also noticed their attack. It was powerful but luckily it was not aimed at him. He stopped attacking Hiro and retreated, knowing that he might be caught in their attacks if he kept being close to Hiro.

Hiro was already aware that Landon and his friends were preparing something. However, he didn’t mind that and he was also busy with Ren, so he could not interrupt whatever they were doing. Finally, they revealed their trump card and he had to say that it was impressive.

Therefore, to show some respect for them, he decided to challenge their attack with his own. In spite of being able to dodge the attack easily, he felt he should respond since they put so much effort into releasing the skill, so he thought he ought to respond to them in a similar manner.

[ “StarShatterer Style: Starfall” ]

Hiro unleashed his own ultimate attack. This was his strongest attack skill and he knew that if he wanted to block the attack, he would at least need such power.

-BANG!

Landon’s attack collided with Hiro’s attack. Landon and his friends’ attack was really dangerous but Hiro easily prevailed over it and destroyed it with his attack.

“What?”

“How can that be? We used our strongest skills. You meant to say that even our best was not enough?”

Elijah and Abigail were shocked. It would already be good for Hiro if he could survive their attack, however, they never thought that their ultimate skill would be shattered by Hiro’s skill.

Ren Dreyar, who was near the attack, also could not believe what he saw. He was near when the attack hit Hiro and could feel its power. The attack was something that might be more than twice as strong as his strongest attack but that still failed to leave a scratch on Hiro’s body.

He could not fathom how strong Hiro’s Starfall skill was that could completely shatter such an attack. He dare not say that he could survive after receiving Starfall even if he was 3 times stronger.

[ “Star Swift” ]

In the midst of shock, Hiro took this opportunity to counterattack. Since Ren Dreyar had stopped attacking him, he thought of taking this chance to deal with the weaker ones.

In a blink, Hiro disappeared from their sight. They didn’t even have time to react when suddenly Hiro appeared before Abigail.

“What!”

Abigail was still not over the fact that his attack was easily stopped. Now, Hiro appeared out of nowhere, and he was unable to react in time.

“I’ll make this quick. Just stay unconscious for a while and it’ll all be over soon.”

Hiro said before knocking him out. After taking out Abigail, his next target was Elijah.

Landon and Elijah had just come out of their shock when their friend Abigail was taken out in a matter of seconds.

Hiro’s speed was unbelievable and they could barely see him when he moved. Nonetheless, they were ready to defend themselves against his attack.

-WHOOSH!

Disappearing from sight again, Hiro reappeared in front of Elijah. Hiro also tried to take out Elijah like Abigail but was stopped by Landon’s sword.

“You will not succeed a second time!”

-CLANG!

Landon struck Hiro. Landon was able to react quickly because he knew that Hiro’s next target would definitely be Elijah. While Landon was losing against Hiro, that did not mean that he could not see through Hiro’s plan. His intelligence was one thing that Hiro would not be able to surpa.s.s.

When Hiro disappeared, he had already predicted that he would try to take out Elijah and he was prepared to save him. Just in time, Landon had indeed managed to save Elijah. If he didn’t take action, Elijah would also be defeated.

-CLANG! -CLANG! -CLANK!

Landon began attacking Hiro. He was also helped by Elijah. Despite that, it was them who almost got injured by Hiro. Hiro’s speed had increased quite a bit and even with two of them fighting him at the same time, they were not able to keep up with Hiro.

“Ren, stop standing there and help us!”

Landon shouted. He could see that if this kept up, he would be defeated by Hiro.

He asked for Ren’s help. While he could not see how they would win, with Ren’s help, he knew that they could at least survive for a longer period of time.

Just like his earlier plan, he thought that Hiro might get exhausted and lose his fighting power. He was willing to bet on Hiro’s mana being exhausted.

Ren gritted his teeth before joining Landon. He thought that he could handle Hiro alone and had never intended to work together with Landon or others.

However, after witnessing Hiro’s Starfall, he realized that he was no match for Hiro. Even if he fought with full power for an hour, he could barely injure Hiro.

Knowing his limitations, he decided to join Landon and try to defeat Hiro with their help. He absolutely hated the idea of getting their help, but he had no choice if he wished to beat Hiro.

Landon, Elijah, and Ren’s teamwork were not exactly good. They didn’t know how to cooperate with each other and at times would even interfere with each other.

Despite such clumsy teamwork, they were still able to put up a good fight against Hiro. They were able to block his attacks and push him back sometimes. However, Hiro’s speed and power were too much for them to handle.

They were getting tired and exhausted, but Hiro was still going strong.

They knew that they could no longer go on like this. It was only a matter of time before they were defeated. Therefore, before getting exhausted, they decided to give their all and attack Hiro for the last time.

[ “Sonic Surge” ]

[ “Omega Blast” ]

[ “Whirlwind Blade” ]

The three of them drew the last bit of their mana and unleashed their strongest attack. They hoped for Hiro to be exhausted and unable to block their attacks.

[ “StarShatterer Style: Starfall” ]

Hiro responded to their attacks with his own attack. Unlike what the three of them hoped, Hiro still had plenty of mana and could easily unleash two to three more Starfall attacks.

-BANG!

The attacks collided, creating a ma.s.sive explosion that shook the ground and sent debris flying everywhere.

At the Luminia stadium, audiences were getting excited as they witnessed the ongoing battle.

As the fight continued, the crowd’s excitement reached a fever pitch. The intense clash of powerful attacks and the sight of the powerful students fighting was a spectacle to behold.

Cheers and shouts of encouragement could be heard from every corner of the stadium. The crowd was completely engrossed in the battle, eagerly watching as the fighters traded blows with each other.

The majority of people were, however, focused on Hiro’s battle. Hiro was the most powerful in this tournament, however, his opponents were also not to be underestimated either.

As the battle intensified and the fighters unleashed their most powerful attacks, the crowd’s excitement grew even more. They cheered and shouted as the attacks collided, creating ma.s.sive explosions of mana.

Despite the danger and chaos of the battle, the crowd remained fully invested in the outcome. Every movement, every strike, and every counter-attack was met with cheers and applause.

As the final explosion subsided and the dust cleared, the crowd held their breath in antic.i.p.ation, waiting to see who would emerge victorious.

On the battlefield!

For a moment, everything was still, and it seemed like the battle had ended. But then, the dust settled, revealing Hiro standing unharmed in the middle of the crater.

“Landon, sorry! He is too strong.”

“Not a single scratch?” Haha… Looks like I am completely defeated.”

-THUD!

The three of them had fallen unconscious. They had used every bit of their mana to unleash their attack, however, it was still not enough.

Hiro was the winner!
