The Golem Mage - Chapter 608

Chapter 608: Final Bout 2 Chapter 608: Final Bout 2 Their skepticism was not unwarranted, considering Alec had just faced three Tier 5 mages before confronting Yama.

However, these were not your run-of-the-mill Tier 5 mages, they were the cream of the crop, the elite starting line-up of the prestigious Vajra Academy.

It was understandable that spectators anticipated Alec€™s imminent defeat.

But if Alec surpassed their expectations and continued his remarkable performance by defeating Yama, it wouldn€™t just be his endurance that would come into question, but also the strength of the entire Vajra Academy team would also face scrutiny.

This situation would also provide the ordinary academies with yet another opportunity to challenge the committee€™s allocation of resources.

Alec€™s extraordinary showing would serve as evidence that budgetary support given to the ordinary academies should be increased, as they are already, insinuating that the Great Eight Academies might be losing their touch, that€™s why the monk told Yama that this was a fight for their academy honour.

As the audience deliberated the potential outcome of the battle, a significant change manifested within Alec.

Firstly, his fiery red hair began to emit a radiant glow, resembling molten flames.

Simultaneously, the scabbard of Alec€™s Changdao underwent a similar transformation.

Captivated by these displays, Alec halted his sand manipulation suspended mid-air, no longer attempting to escape Yama€™s assaults.

Instead, his unwavering gaze locked onto Yama, and an unspoken understanding passed between the two combatants.

Both Alec and Yama recognized that the final moments of the fight were rapidly approaching.

€“
Among the members of the Blaze Clan present in the crowd, awe and astonishment swept through their ranks.

Alec€™s newfound form surpassed any of their expectations, leaving them completely star struck.

In that monumental moment, Alec had unveiled an unforeseen development, defying all everything they were ever thought.

In fact, the Elders in the VIP section were the most shocked by this new development from Alec.

€œA core bloodline…

hair like molten lava…

a blazing aura that engulfs his entire body…

the descent of a true Blaze Clansman, not just looking exactly like his father but also causing shocking achievements like his father did.€ The Grand Elder muttered to himself, astonished.

€œHe€™s tapping into his Blaze bloodline, but how is he doing it so easily?

No one has ever awakened their bloodline or Flaming soul beast without reaching the high ranks, but he is already exhibiting signs of awakening his bloodline.€
He listed every sign Alec was exhibiting before pinching himself, unsure if he was dreaming or if he was truly witnessing someone other than Rae and the Patriarch of their clan unlock the Blaze Bloodline transformation before the high rank.

Alec squinted as he noticed several golden hands closing in on him, but with his preparations complete, he remained unfazed.

He bent his legs slightly before launching himself off the sand pool.

Just moments after he left the sand pool he rode like a hover board, a loud boom echoed as a few golden hands struck the sand pool he had been standing on seconds earlier.

€œHumph, you won€™t win that easily!€ Yama sneered, thrusting his fist forward again and sending two more golden hands toward Alec.

Believing Alec was heading straight for him, Yama was prepared to stop him midway.

And with Alec being airborne and no longer supported by the earth element, Yama felt confident he would finally land a solid strike as the two golden hands flew toward Alec.

But as they closed in, bursts of black flame ignited beneath Alec€™s feet, giving him a temporary boost as he leapt off the golden palms, narrowly avoiding them.

[> Innate Spell €“ Terra Bullet <]
Alec unleashed his innate spell, casting it as he descended gracefully within the confines of the battle ring.

Witnessing Alec preparing to cast a spell once again, Yama quickly reacted by conjuring a massive circular metal shield, positioning it as a defensive barrier before him.

However, what caught both Yama and the entire audience off guard was Alec€™s unconventional target.

Instead of aiming at Yama, Alec directed his right finger towards a different direction altogether.

In that unexpected moment, three earth-like bullets, each the size of a sniper round, materialized before him.

However, these bullets did not revolve around Alec€™s finger as usual.

Instead, they lined up one by one in front of his outstretched fingers, Alec watched as the bullets became enveloped in a blend of black and red flames.

While he hadn€™t anticipated this turn of events, Alec realized that due to maintaining the flaming aura passively on his body, every attack and movement he made was now imbued with a flaming attribute.

It was as if he had become a blazing furnace, radiating intense heat and power.

In this state, Alec felt a surge of excitement coursing through his veins.

It was as if his blood was boiling, and the flaming heart within his Microcosmic universe beat vigorously, in sync with his own heartbeat.

His senses heightened, granting him a heightened awareness of everything unfolding around him.

It was as if his combat instincts had been refined to an extraordinary level in this new state.

A resounding €œBang!€ echoed through the arena as three gunshot sounds erupted.

Alec swiftly shot towards three different positions, strategically around Yama, as he was still in the middle.

Astonishingly, the bullets did not continue their trajectory until they found a target; instead, they exploded after a short time travelling in the air, creating a small black and red fiery array in the air surrounding Yama and Alec in the middle.

Alec€™s move had completely bewildered Yama, leaving him utterly perplexed and unable to grasp the true nature of what was transpiring.

With a determined resolve, Yama dashed towards Alec.

This time, he did not rely on the golden hands, recognizing that Alec€™s evasion skills surpassed their capabilities.

Yama understood that his golden hands speed alone would not be enough to restrict or surpass Alec€™s rapid reaction speed, so he decided to do it himself.

€œIt€™s too late now,€ Alec proclaimed, a smile gracing his face weakly, however, Yama remained undeterred, launching himself forward with a powerful right fist aimed at Alec€™s face.

With nimble evasion, Alec stepped back and tilted sideways, managing to elude Yama€™s strike.

Yet, Yama€™s determination to incapacitate Alec and disrupt whatever grand array spell he was constructing remained unwavering.

So he swiftly followed up with a low kick, but Alec skillfully blocked it with one of his legs.

Unfazed, Yama unleashed another punch with his left fist this time, only for it to be deftly slapped away by Alec€™s right palm.

For the next few minutes, the crowd audibly gasped in awe and excitement, their eyes widened as they observed the intense exchange of moves between Alec and Yama.

Where Yama took on the role of the aggressor, launching a relentless assault, while Alec showcased his impressive defensive skills, expertly deflecting and evading the onslaught.

Both combatants exhibited their martial prowess, channelling raw strength that sent shockwaves rippling through the arena with each strike.

It was a spectacle that astonished the audience, as they felt even their ordinary attacks possessed a lethal potency that surpassed that of Tier 4 mages.

In this display of raw strength, Yama found himself surprised, because while Omar Khan was deemed the strongest in their team, it was because he had never competed directly with him, allowing Omar, his vice captain to hold that as a small title, at least in his perspective, that was what it is.

However, Yama harboured unwavering confidence in his own strength.

With his golden body form enhancing his physical abilities, his strikes were deadlier than any spell, particularly in close quarters combat.

He recalled a time when, in this golden body form, he had decimated the head of a low Tier 5 demonic beast with a single blow, solely relying on raw power.

However, in their current entanglement, Yama could feel his hands growing sore from the exchanges with Alec.

And observing Alec€™s seemingly unaffected countenance, Yama began to question once again the secrets Alec possessed to attain such strength.

He was not naive enough to attribute Alec€™s progress solely to the War God Academy; as he felt there had to be something more to it.
