CHAPTER 155 A FIERCE FIGHT (PART ONE)

Everyone from the Ancient Families felt elated upon hearing Diana's decision. To them, this was an

opportunity to win the divine inheritance tool.

"That's great of you, Diana! You are so courageous!" said one of the Holy Lords, flattering Diana with

his excitement. The atmosphere was so intense that his excitement only added more fuel to the fire of

both sides.

"Now that Diana has made her proposal, I declare that all the other Holy Lords and I will witness the

fight between Darren and the chosen representative from the Ancient Families. If one side denies the

result and goes back on its promise, it will become the common enemy of all of the Holy Lands. None

of the Holy Lords shall let this whole thing go until justice has been served. Does everyone agree with

my proposal?" said Holy Lord Landon in a tough tone.

"With all the Holy Lords witnessing the fight, we have no reason to go back on our words. The Ancient

Families promise that we will do as the rules dictate," Clive said, making his intentions clear on behalf

of the Ancient Families.

"What about you, Diana?"

"I agree. Now, go ahead and fight for us, Darren!" Holy Lord Diana said flatly. Her face seemed as cold

as ice.

"All right. Let the last round of the contest begin," Holy Lord Landon announced seriously.

"Darren, make sure to protect yourself no matter what happens. Your safety is of the utmost

importance," Colin said to Darren in a muffled voice.

"I know, sir. Don't worry about me," Darren replied as he nodded at Colin.

"Use the skill you learned from the Dragon Race against your enemy, Darren. If you think it would be

impossible for you to win the game, or if you feel that your life is in danger, then just admit your failure

immediately. I will not blame it on you."

Darren heard Diana's voice in his mind.

"I understand, Holy Lord Diana," Darren murmured in a low voice.

Darren couldn't help but feel touched upon hearing Colin's and Diana's words. It made him feel warm

inside how they cared more about his well-being than the result of the contest. In this round, the stakes

were huge. The loser would have to give up an important holy tool and hand it over to the winner, but

instead of hankering for such a precious instrument, both Colin and Diana valued Darren's life and

safety more. So Darren made up his mind to win the game at all cost. This fight was not just for his

sister, but also for everyone who cared about him.

A gush of air suddenly blew as Darren leaped towards the arena.

To everyone watching, Darren seemed as fast as lightning.

As Darren and Bruce stood on the battle ring like two statues, the rest of the people in the arena could

not take their eyes off them. exclusive content.

"Hey, bro. I know I'm no match for you, but I'll still try my best to win the game for my sister and the

elders who care for me. So let's do this now," Darren said while cupping his hands before his chest in

order to show his respect towards his opponent. Darren, while being the underdog, was shrouded with

an aura of toughness.

It was the first time in Bruce's life that somebody ever addressed him like this. To be perfectly candid,

he had felt something strange about this boy the first time they had met each other. For some reason,

Darren felt familiar to him, as if he were a long lost friend of his. But at the same time, Bruce was also

fearful of him.

Nevertheless, Bruce's eyes filled up with his intention to fight in spite of his complicated feelings

towards his opponent.

Bruce knew how much Darren wanted to win the game, and even though he had a favorable

impression of Darren, he was just as determined to win as he was. So, he temporarily put aside all of

his hesitations that might interfere with his performance in the competition. As much as he did not want

to hurt Darren, he knew that the only way he could find out the news of his mother was to win the

game. Bruce activated his bloodline force at once and drove it to the top level.

He transformed himself into a gigantic ape covered with black scales, and roared and ran towards

Darren with immense momentum. Standing in front of his opponent, he looked like a pillar strutting

between heaven and earth.

Meanwhile, Darren looked like he was merely an ant in comparison to the humongous ape that was

dozens of meters high. More than that, his strength seemed much weaker than that of Bruce's.

But there was no fear in Darren's eyes. He just stared directly into the eyes of the monster as he

gradually floated up in the air. His eyes became blank as he sunk into meditation. In that moment, he

was activating the magical skills he had learned from the Dragon Race.

Tremendous blood essence moved inside him like boiling water, and an endless power of blade intent

and sword intent converged in his belly coming from every cell of his body.

In addition to all the energies gathering in his body, the black pyramid-like demon core in Darren's elixir

field started stirring as well.

Instantly, Bruce felt waves of energy surging from Darren.

This time, he was able to feel the intensity of Darren's strength, and it drove fear into his heart. Like a

knight born for the king he served, he felt an ingrained impulse to surrender himself in front of Darren.

But he could not do that, so he did his best to subdue the fear in him as much as he possibly could.

With a fierce roar, he rallied all of his energy and channeled it into an attack towards Darren.

Bruce swiftly moved his huge fists to cover Darren under the gloomy shadow of their attack range.

"Cracking Attack!"

"Profound Nine Sword Skills!"

"Blood Dragon Illusion!"

Darren shouted, exerting all of the skills he was capable of. He moved so quickly as he was warding off

Bruce's fists that everyone watching could only see his shadow moving on the ground.

"Amazing! That boy can use the avatar skill to generate various images of his real self!"

"Wow, he has the Omnipotent Talent Skill!"

"How could that even be possible? As far as I know, it's impossible for someone who has not entered

the Wonder Realm to have the Omnipotent Talent Skill! And to top that off, he can even practice the

sword and blade at the same time. He's totally unbelievable!"

Darren's avatar skills amazed all the spectators, including the three chiefs from the Ancient Families

and all of the Holy Lords. All of them could not help but be stunned by his marvelous skills.

But his fighting momentum was still much weaker compared to the fierceness and brute strength of the

monstrous ape. From the spectators' point of view, this was the one disadvantage Darren had as a

fighter.
