Chapter 498: The Challenge Begins

"Oh c.r.a.p," One of the young men said.

He didn't have any confidence in being able to block what was before them.

In front of the ice wall, three large inscriptions were facing the group, all glowing with different colors of light.

As soon as the young man completed his statement, the inscriptions released powerful attacks.

The three inscriptions covered a large area, giving each of them the chance to release a large-scale attack. This was exactly what Grey did with them.

The lightning inscription sent out multiple lightning bolts, and the fire inscription released flaming birds which exploded as they got close to where the group of five were standing. The water inscription attacked with ice arrows.

Boom! Bam! Bang!

All the attacks were released so fast that the group didn't have time to retreat. They were all forced to try to defend them.

After only a few seconds, their defenses crumbled, leaving them defenseless against the attacks.

Boom!

A larger explosion happened, sending all five fighters flying.

Crash! Bam!

"Next," Grey's apathetic voice resounded once again.

The crowd looked at him, all thinking the same thing.

They underestimated his strength.

Since the fight started, it hasn't even been up to twenty minutes, yet he had not only removed those in the Eighth stage of the Origin Plane, but he had also shown that those in the Ninth stage wouldn't be a problem for him as well.

The next group of fighters in the Ninth stage of the Origin Plane soon climbed onto the platform, but the result was just like that of the first group.

After fighting against five groups, Grey decided to increase the number of people he fought in a single round. With the number increased, he wasn't able to end the battle as swiftly as he did when he was still fighting against five people.

One hour soon went by since the battle started.

"He's quite powerful, I can't believe he still hasn't been touched by a single attack yet?" One of the old men in the special area commented.

"He's only fighting against those in the Origin Plane, of course it's natural that they wouldn't be able to do anything to him," Clara's father said.

"Have you forgotten he's still in the Origin Plane?" The old man asked mockingly.

Clara's father wanted to refute, but then he remembered he was correct. Grey was just so powerful that he actually forgot he was still at the Peak of the Origin Plane. He wasn't the only one who had forgotten Grey was still in the Origin Plane, there were some people in the crowd as well.

There are a few who think Grey was lying when he said he was still in the Origin Plane because the power he was showing was something only those in the Overlord Plane would. Not any ordinary Overlord Plane Elementalist, but those who could fight across stages.

….

Boom! Bang! Bam!

Attacks upon attacks kept ringing out on the platform, with figures being sent flying.

It has been over two hours now since the battle started, and Grey was just getting to the group that consisted of those at the Peak of the Origin Plane, just like him.

Individually, of them here was a match for him, but, there might be a chance if he were to fight against ten of them at once.

Just like how he had been doing, he fought against five in the first round. The five consisted of two young men who were Water Elementalists, and three young ladies with the lightning, wind, and earth element respectively.

The battle started explosively, but Grey was able to withstand the flurry of attacks the group sent at him before he began his counterattack. After only a few moves, he defeated the first group, with relative ease.

It was like they didn't know how to fight against him. All the groups who had entered the platform have all tried a different approach, but they have all been meant with the same outcome, defeat.

It didn't take long before the people at the Peak of the Origin Plane slowly started to lose hope. It's one thing knowing you can't defeat someone, it's another knowing that even with four more people with you, you're still no match for the person.

After an hour, those at the Peak of the Origin Plane gave up, and surprisingly, no one in the crowd found their choice odd. They could already tell from the first battle that there was no hope for them.

What was more shocking was that amongst those at the Peak of the Origin Plane, there were geniuses who could fight against some Elementalists who just broke through to the Overlord Plane. But of them felt they were strong enough to hold out against Grey.

….

"It's time for those in the First stage of the Overlord Plane to step forward," The head of the Gayle family said, he turned to look at Grey, "Boy, do you need a break?"

"I'm good, start the next battle," Grey shook his head.

Although he had been fighting for over three hours, he wasn't really tired. He had b?r?ly moved from the spot he stood since he started to attack with his elements, and thanks to the training he had with the lady, he could now greatly maximize the essence spent while bringing out greater attack power.

"Alright, since you've decided we will continue with the battle," The head of the Gayle family replied.

He was already starting to lose hope since he didn't see anyone who he thought could defeat Grey. But, there are fifteen people in the Third stage of the Overlord Plane, and they're all from the Pyro Faction.

With them around, no matter how monstrous Grey was, he shouldn't be able to defeat them, right?

Grey looked in the direction of those in the Overlord Plane.

'Now the real challenge begins.'
