Chapter 166 - Round Two
*PIAAKK* a hot fiery aura coming out from Jayna's body [Sacred Fire]. The Fire envelops Jayna's body and makes a sort of wing shape on the back of Jayna.
All the audience was surprised at the sudden change of event, especially the clan head Jade. As someone that has been roaming the Endless Battlefield dimension for years, he knows the unique existence such as phoenix.
Still, he is in doubt. The phoenix he knows uses green flame and powerful blue flame. There is no story about another phoenix using a normal red flame over the years he resides inside this land.
While everyone was shocked at Jayna's comeback, "Ready for round two?" said Jayna, grinning towards Angus.
Without waiting for Angus's reply, she holds up her sword, and all the fire elements gather at her sword. Looking at this, Angus couldn't help but have a bad feeling and ready himself.
The sword comes down a moment later and melts everything straight towards Angus [Sword Art - Fiery Wave]. *Blarr* In the blink of an eye, the heatwave was already in front of Angus.
Angus managed to dodge the absurd attack by a hair breath using strange footwork [Rodeo Maneuver]. Angus's body seems to disappear on the spot and appear next to it. Seeing the hot, scorched ground beside him, he couldn't help but gulp his saliva.
'Such an absurd fire element concentration, and that's only at the grade two strength. I should stop teasing her too much from now on. Don't want to get accidentally fried up.' thought Angus.
"Haa.. Ha.. as expected, you still could avoid that?" said Jayna while slumping on the ground, exhausted.
The last move she did contain almost all her mana. Even though her mana is already five times higher than before, the mana consumption of such a skill is still massive.
Furthermore, this is the first time she has used the skill. She believes after becoming more proficient at it. She could reduce mana consumption and control it better.
Looking that the unbelievable spar is done now, *Clap* *Clap* *Clap* Clan Head Jade couldn't help but clap his hand loudly.
"Wonderful, such a great spar. It's like looking at the high-grade spar rather than a lower grade one." praised Jade honestly.
Hearing this, the other villager couldn't help but agree with Jade's evaluation. Both of the teenagers already surpass the level of the lower grade combatant.
Be it Angus's proficiency in a lot of elemental spells along with his enormous mana to cast it or Jayna's last attack that could kill higher combatant, both of them managed to show what is called a true genius.
Moreover, Angus and Jayna's combat capability is really advanced. All the villagers feel like seeing expert fighting but with a lot of limitations.
Neil, who is spectating Angus and Jayna's spar, couldn't help but feel ashamed. Yet, he also feels jealousy at such power.
'Impossible… They must be an adult with the appearance of a teenager. There is no way they have that kind of strength. It should be me that has that kind of attention!!' thought Neil while gritting his teeth before leaving the area.
Seeing Neil's behavior, Clan Head Jade could only sigh at his youngest son.
'I hope with this you could learn something from this. In this world, there is always a sky above the sky. Otherwise, you will never survive in this treacherous land.' thought Clan Head Jade.
"So, Did I break the previous record?" asked Jayna excitedly despite her exhaustion.
"Err… I think we should not measure it with time anymore." said Angus.
"Eh.. That means I have already reached the next step?" asked Jayna.
"Nope, it's just that our mana consumption is higher when we use more advanced spells/skills. So, I think it will be better to change it to how many you got hit. How about it? Of course, if you could land a hit on me, we will move on to the next step." said Angus.
"Boohoo… But, it means I have become better. Alright, deals." said Jayna before going on meditation to recover her mana.
Seeing the spar is over, all the villagers start to disperse while expressing their goodwill towards the two teenagers. As for the two teenagers, they couldn't help but wait for Jayna's body to recover.
Her last move has a strong recoil towards her body and makes her body keep shaking and feeling weak for a while. Moreover, she also needs to recover a little bit of mana.
As the villagers start to disperse, leaving the two teenagers alone, Clan Head Jade approaches them.
"Hahaha… That's a wonderful spar. However, I still feel you hide some of your strength, my dear nephew." said Jade.
"Well, we should not reveal all of our hidden cards." replied Angus nonchalantly.
"Anyway, there is something that is bothering me. It is about Lady Jayna. I couldn't help but feel her power is the same as the phoenixes that I know." said Jade.
Hearing this, "Uncle Jade knows about the phoenix?" asked Angus.
"Yes, not one but two. Inside the Endless Battlefield, there are two immortal entities called green phoenix and blue phoenix. I never clash directly with both of them, but I still could feel their aura when they fight nearby and hear some stories about it."
"Both of these two entities are ridiculously strong only below the seventh-grade realm. Even among the sixth grade, they are in the category of the upper class." explained Jade more.
Then, Jade tells the characteristics of the two phoenixes and their strength. Based on Jade's experience, the green phoenix has a strong hot green flame. The flame not only burns but also contains the force of nature.
Once there was a fight between a green phoenix and a high-grade monster. After being hit by the green flame, the monster's body grows a vine and strong branches that restrain it.
In the end, the monster's body dies because of its vitality absorbed by the branch and green fire on it.
As for the blue phoenix, it has territory in the coldest place of Endless Battlefield. Based on the story circulated among the other clans inside this dimension, the Blue phoenix has absurd fire properties.
Its fire is scorching hot, unlike normal fire, but it also could freeze the things it touches. Both of the victims of the blue phoenix fire will get burn wounds along with the freezing wound. Based on this fact, the blue phoenix is more dangerous than the green phoenix.
Furthermore, both of these beasts have already been living inside the Endless battlefield for a long time. It could be said that both of them are immortal.
For all the seventh-grade beings and monster overlords inside this dimension, fighting both of them is only wasting time and power.
Both of the phoenixes could easily be resurrected from the dead. Furthermore, they could also fly very fast and escape any trap with their current strength.
Hearing this, Angus couldn't help feeling that both Jayna and Angus were lucky to escape from the two phoenixes. Since Jade may come with them from now, Angus decides to tell the story about Jayna's current condition.
Hearing Jayna's condition, Jade couldn't help but be surprised at this revelation.
After thinking for a while, "Hmm… Don't worry, my nephew. Lady Jayna is King Leon's daughter. I will give my best to protect her. Still, it is a surprise that there is another phoenix that is stronger than those two." said Jade.
Then, both of them begin to chat about various things before Jade goes back to the village to take care of some things. As for Angus, he is still waiting for Jayna to end her meditation to recover her mana.
Mana recovering is a slow process if they do not have cheat-like existence like heritage chi. However, Jayna, who is already merged with the fire phoenix, has superior mana regeneration.
The downside is her mana will contain fire elements than attributeless normal mana. She could use fire skills/spells more easily but harder to use other elemental spells/skills, including attributeless elemental spells/skills.
After recovering a little bit, both teenagers go back to the village and rest in their tent. Angus wants to prepare some tools for his uncle's medication.
The medication of old wound miasma is tedious work since the wound is already ingrained with the body for too long. It is like removing a tumor in the medical field. A lot of tools and preparation need to be done before the practice.
Angus begins to create a few tools that will help his medication. Fortunately, his space storage contains various kinds of raw materials to be used. Using his expertise in crafting, Angus began to create a series of medical tools and sterile needles.
Another week passed by in the blink of an eye. During these weeks, Angus continued to focus on creating his medical tools. Besides that, he also occasionally accompanies Jayna's training.
In the nighttime, he will enter his manual battle system to accumulate more points. Since he arrived at the Endless Battlefield dimension, Angus didn't have time and a safe place to enter the manual battle system.
During the last few weeks, his soul point only came from his automatic battle system. Only now, he has time to enter the manual battle system and accumulate his soul points.
