CHAPTER 583 TERRENCE'S SHOWTIME
"I just said that you overestimated your strength, didn't I? It is absolutely impossible for anyone whom I
have already defeated before to eventually surpass me and defeat me in the future. The ability gap
between those losers and I will continue to widen infinitely and you will always be one of those losers.
Got it?" Soar shook his right fist to relax a little as he sneered. While speaking, he stared at Louie, who
was slumped on the ground. He had a look of embarrassment and disappointment.
The other three members of the Bing Clan just stood there, paralyzed by what just happened.
Maybe they had predicted Louie's defeat but they certainly never expected him to be defeated so soon
and so completely.
This was far from a serious battle between two warriors. It was merely an utter joke showing how an
ant tried to topple a giant tree—Louie was bound for defeat the moment he overestimated his own
strength and underestimated Soar's.
After getting himself together, Justin began looking at Louie with scorn when he realized Louie's
crushing defeat severely tarnished the reputation of the Bing Clan.
If a warrior was defeated by a new opponent for the first time, it was reasonable and forgivable
because failure wasn't very surprising if they knew little about the their opponent's strength.
However, if a warrior was defeated by the same opponent for the second time and in such an
ignominious way, what else could it possibly say about him? It only proved how much of a loser he
really was.
"By the way, don't expect to live any further once I defeat you for the second time," Soar threatened.
The aura of the Flame Enlightenment began exuding from his body once again which showed that he
was about to kill Louie without any hesitation.
Soar didn't want to let go of this opportunity to kill Louie, because he knew so well that the Bing Clan
deliberately caused trouble for Ricky and himself all the time.
Just when Soar was about to kill Louie, Justin stepped forward and launched the Ice Punch towards
Soar. Clearly, he had no plans of letting Soar kill Louie.
Under Justin's attack, Soar was forced to move a few heavy steps back. Obviously, Soar's strength
wasn't powerful enough to defeat Justin just yet.
"Soar, let me fight this time. Now that we have them within our grasp, it's time to give the Bing Clan
what they rightfully deserve. They have been secretly trying to assassinate us for a long time and
there's no way I would let them get away with their evil deeds," Ricky he told Soar resolutely as he held
out his right hand to help Soar steady himself.
Hearing what Ricky said, Soar nodded and agreed to let Ricky fight. He knew Justin was much more
powerful than himself. He didn't have to pretend to be bold and strong in front of Ricky and Madeline. It
would only be a waste of time because they were his close friends and they knew him very well.
"Well then Ricky, show me how powerful an ace genius can truly be!" Justin shouted when he saw that
Ricky had decided to fight him.
His tone revealed his veritable fighting intention along with some traces of jealousy.
Ricky was a genius and so was he. He had always been desperate to prove himself whenever he met
other geniuses, which accounted for his strong intention of fighting. Besides, Ricky's genius for martial
arts exceeded that of most geniuses in the Eastern Land. Justin knew that he might not be as famous
and powerful as Ricky and it was making him a little jealous.
"I'll show you right away!" Ricky said with a faint smile as his powerful aura gradually exuded from his
body.
He was also very excited about the upcoming fight. The last fight he had was against the Virulent
Sandy Crocodiles in the Virulent Sand Flow. He was not able to exert his full power freely because he
had to stay in the airship while fighting. But this time, he could go all out since he was no longer in the
same place and situation.
But at that moment, a hand was placed on his shoulder. It was Terrence's hand. He then said to Ricky,
"You should let me fight him this time. You are more than a peerless genius. You are veritably an ace
genius. It would be a waste of talent for you to fight against such a weak opponent."
Terrence's tone was mild but his words caused Justin to be stung with disdain.
For the first time, Justin's eyes turned sullen in an instant.
"You are Terrence, a member of the Black Peafowl tribe, right? I know that you and Cameron, the
casting master, are from the same tribe. I hold him in high regard and so at first I didn't want to cause
you any trouble. But since you just said you wanted to fight against me, then don't blame me if I end up
hurting you in the upcoming battle. I'm not going to lie. It is such a pity that you don't cherish your
remaining chance of survival," Justin growled.
He was indeed a genius of the Bing Clan and he was very proud of it. He detested anyone who ever
dared to say anything that meant he was weaker than another genius. Although being compared with
an ace genius, he still felt irritated whenever someone belittled him.
At that moment, Terrence was whom he detested the most instead of Ricky.
"Yes, I am Terrence. As you have said, you didn't want to hurt me just because you respected
Cameron. Well, I don't think I need this kind of protection anymore. I am the savior of my own life. I will
earn anything that I want with my own efforts," Terrence said with great conviction.
Suddenly, a trace of killing aura appeared in his black fog of spiritual energy.
Understanding Terrence's resolution, Ricky decided to let him go against Justin and slowly stepped
back. He firmly believed that Terrence was strong enough to defeat him.
'Now would be the perfect time to see how powerful Terrence's Killing Swordsmanship really is!' Ricky
thought to himself.
"I will turn you into a joke, I promise you that. Everyone will know that you are not as strong as you
claim to be," Justin roared, trying to destroy Terrence's overflowing confidence. The next moment, the
area around Justin's body turned into the Ultimate Ice Domain.
As this happened, a mace made of ice appeared in his hands. Clearly, it was Justin's spiritual weapon
—the Ice Mace.
Terrence wasted no time in getting ready for the battle. As soon as he held out the Black Treasure
Sword, he exerted the Ultimate Killing Domain around him and directed it towards Justin's Ultimate Ice
Domain. Both of them began launching their attacks as soon as they could.
In an instant, both of their Ultimate Domains crashed and splintered. Glimmers of bright light flashed
around them. Afterwards, the sword exuding the aura of killing and the mace covered in ice began to
clash violently. Waves of power then rippled in all directions from their weapons during their attacks.
"Take these ice thorns!"
Justin shouted as his mace hit Terrence's sword. The aura of power that exuded out of Justin's body
revealed that he was an excellent third-class middle spiritual king. Next, the Ice Mace began to shine.
Crack!
In the blink of an eye, countless ice thorns appeared around Justin's body. The ice thorns exerted
dazzling icy rays with the power of the Ice Enlightenment. All of the ice thorns then darted towards
Terrence in an attempt to pierce through him.
"It's time for your slaughter!" As Terrence felt the threat of the ice thorns around him, his black eyes
turned into bloody red ones that glared at the shining icy rays; the Black Treasure Sword that he held
was surrounded by an overwhelming amount of bloody red killing aura.
The killing aura massed like steam soaring into the air as it transformed into a series of Slaughter
Blade Attacks that he intended to use as a counterattack against the fierce ice thorns.
Boom! A loud crash resounded through the entire area.
Justin and Terrence were both thrown a few steps back due to the strong reactive thrusts caused by
the percussion of their weapons.
At that moment, Justin's terrifying and murderous eyes began to turn gloomy.
Terrence's strength was way beyond his expectations.
In the Oriental College, he was an inner disciple while Terrence was merely an outer disciple ranked
sixth.
'Has he been hiding his real strength in the Oriental College this entire time?' Justin thought to himself
in great surprise.
'It is more likely that Terrence has made great progress these past few days. Or maybe he has been
more than a third-class middle spiritual king all this time!' Ricky thought as he tried to understand what
was happening right in front of him. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
His intuition told him that Terrence hadn't exerted his full strength. In addition, he could also feel that
the Killing Swordsmanship that Terrence practiced was the most original swordsmanship of any kind.
He had never seen anything like it before.
'Terrence, I hope I get to see your full exertion of your Killing Swordsmanship before all of this ends, '
Ricky thought expectantly.
"You may be able to exert such potent power, but you are still merely an outer disciple ranked sixth!
What a great surprise! I guess I was wrong to underestimate your strength," Justin said loudly as he
spun his mace slowly.
"Do you really think that I care about the ranking? Maybe only vain people like you would care about
that," Terrence responded in a flat tone.
"For me, the so-called ranking has nothing to do with anyone's real strength. Now I think I may have
overestimated you, the so-called genius of the Bing Clan."
"How dare you speak to me like that! You're saying this to court death, aren't you?" Justin snarled in a
deep voice.
