Chapter 592: What Is The Problem?.
After successfully deflecting all of Alec’s bullets, Omar aimed the blade on his right hand directly at Alec.
[> Mid Tier Spell €“ Blade Spark <]
In an instant, the bone blade that had emerged from Omar's hand shot towards Alec with astonishing speed, seemingly unaffected by the gravity force field that Alec had created.
The tip of the bone blade emitted a brilliant light, giving the audience the impression that it would ignite upon striking its intended target, which is Alec.
The fans of the Vajra Academy held their breaths in anticipation, their eyes fixed on the imminent collision between the bone blade and Alec.
They firmly believed that there was no possible way for Alec to evade such a swift attack at such close proximity.
However, just as the bone blade was mere inches away from piercing Alec's face, his body jerked and he vanished once again.
The audience was abruptly reminded that Alec was not a slow and unwieldy fighter.
And he had already demonstrated his agility in the previous match, but amidst the intensity of the current battle, that fact seemed to have slipped their minds.
Additionally, Alec meeting Omar head-on in terms of strength had further intensified their oversight.
Yet, as danger loomed, Alec was compelled to employ his full speed once more.
His movements appeared almost instantaneous at such a close distance, resembling teleportation.
Not only did Alec evade the attack with ease, but he also swiftly closed the distance, aiming to strike Omar Khan.
The spectators could discern his intent from the afterimage trailing behind him, a visual manifestation of his lightning-fast speed intensified by the force of gravity force field he had created.
"Get out of there!" a concerned student from the Vajra Academy shouted, urging Omar to dodge whatever attack Alec might unleash upon him.
However, amidst the overwhelming clamor generated by the fervent fans engrossed in the match, his voice was barely able to reach Omar.
However, instead of attacking Omar, Alec swiftly passed by him, effortlessly maneuvering to the other side of the battle ring.
The gust of wind caused by Alec's movement brushed past Omar, as if to instill a sense of intimidation within him.
"Get ready to!" Alec was speaking before just stopping.
Badump!
Alec, poised to unleash his finishing move and bring the fight with Omar to a close, but suddenly felt his heart pounding harder than usual,
Alec experienced excruciating pain, so intense that he could feel his own heartbeat reverberating throughout his body.
Unable to withstand the agony, Alec knelt down on one knee, clutching his chest.
Omar, still standing and expecting Alec to make his next move, was taken aback by the sudden silence that fell upon the crowd of spectators.
Considering Alec's formidable speed, it was evident that a small cut to his neck would not be hard for him, such an action alone would declare Alec the Victor by default, but he didn't do it.
So Omar turned to see why Alec hadn't delivered the finishing blow, and he was surprised to find Alec's face contorted with pain, gripping his chest tightly.

"What the fuck is wrong with him?
Why does he appear to be in such agony?" voiced one concerned fan who had come to witness Alec's brilliance.
The sight of Alec in pain, despite not having been attacked by Omar, stirred worry among the spectators.
"Hmm, it's possible he has been using some sort of performance-enhancing pills to contend against the top fighters in this competition, how else can we explain his ability to defeat opponents above his own realm with such ease?" speculated another fan.

"Alec and the members of the War God Academy possess unique methods to rapidly advance in their cultivation, I suspect the War God Academy might have acquired the services of an unscrupulous alchemist who supplies them with these enhancing pills," added a third spectator, attributing Alec's success to potential external aids.
"But the downside to all of this is the fact that with pills like these, there are always consequences, when the backlash eventually kicks in, those responsible for such practices will realize the enormity of the disadvantage compared to the advantages this path offers," a mage in the crowd, attempting to appear knowledgeable, said as he lifted his jaw with his right hand and supported his right hand with his left hand.
As soon as he presented this conclusion, numerous spectators nearby swarmed him with questions, seeking his expertise.
In response, he did his best to answer, blending half-truths with known facts to make his stories more credible.
"Do you believe Alec has truly fallen into a state of backlash?" another spectator questioned him.
"Of course, I'm certain of it, can't you see the way he is clutching his chest?
It's evident that he's in pain from the injury," the middle-aged mage replied, his head held high like a proud peacock in the face of skepticism.
Although this middle-aged mage remained uncertain about what was happening to Alec, he was sure that with Alec still writhing in pain, it wouldn't be long before Omar capitalizes on the opportunity and launches an attack, leading to his own victory.
In this way, no one would question whether he was right or wrong.
He would easily become a minor celebrity and gain recognition, which had been his goal all along.
In the capital, those who aspire to succeed must possess some level of fame.
However, only the strong are truly acknowledged easily.
Thus, he was exploiting Alec's misfortune as a means to gain a few sycophantic fans who would fall for his deceitful narratives.
However, he was not the only one engaging in this behavior.
In every corner of the Grand Arena, there were mages who attempted to assume an air of expertise and analyze the situation for the less knowledgeable spectators.
Consequently, within a matter of minutes, new rumors about Alec began circulating among the crowd.

Meanwhile, at the War God Academy stand, the team members watched Alec with surprise, unprepared for the unfolding events.
"Are you sure Omar didn't poison Alec without us noticing?, because i can't fathom any other reason for him to be in such pain, and we still don't know what's wrong," Beatrice proclaimed, visibly concerned.
In a different circumstance, Arthur might have taken the opportunity to mock her for her feelings towards Alec and how she wasn't even bothering to conceal it.
However, the current situation prevented him from noticing or acknowledging any of this.
The entire team was consumed by worry, their gazes fixed on Alec as Omar finally approached him.
Confirming that Alec's pain was genuine, a wicked smile spread across Omar's face, accompanied by his outstretched hand, which grasped Alec's hair and pulled him up.
"Where has that smug attitude of yours gone, huh, smart ass?" Omar said With a smirk on his lips, as he drove his right fist into Alec€™s face, while his left hand was still clenching Alec's hair like a victory trophy.
The newly minted fans of the War God Mage Academy team couldn't help but wince at each brutal blow that landed on Alec€™s face and stomach.
It was as if each hit reminded them of their own vulnerability.
And Omar savored every moment, relishing the opportunity to humiliate Alec, taking his sweet time as he unleashed his fury.
Bang!!
The relentless sound of Omar€™s fist colliding with Alec€™s stomach reverberated throughout the arena, drowning out even the cheers of the enthusiastic Vajra Academy fans.
In that moment, everyone had their own theories about Alec€™s predicament, but none could confidently assert that their opinion reflected the reality of the situation.
Across the crowd, a prevailing belief emerged, that Alec was losing this battle, and the War God Academy team would soon be eliminated from the competition.
Even the Battle Mage Academy team seems to shared this grim outlook, after experiencing how the fight was progressing.
Yet, amid the sea of doubt, there was a certain group of people who saw things differently, and they were all sitting in the VIP section.
They were transfixed on Alec, their eyes filled with shock and confusion as they witnessed the spectacle before them.
