Chapter 970 Chapter 224.3 - Illusions and Hammer
The moment lingered-Lucas and Carl standing across from one another, the air between them still crackling faintly with the residue of exchanged blows. The arena was quiet now, the chaos of motion stilled, both combatants steady on their feet.
Instructor Verren's voice echoed from the edge of the platform.
"Enough. Duel over."
DING.
The mana field that encompassed the platform rippled once, then dissipated, its faint glow fading into the background.
A murmur spread through the observing cadets.
Some had been cheering for flashier matches earlier-light shows, elemental storms, flying swords and flying egos.
But this?
This was different.
This fight had been raw.
Tactile.
Two close-combatants.
No gimmicks.
No crowd-pleasing theatrics.
Just blade and shield. Pressure and response. Mind against mind, foot against ground, steel against steel.
And that made it real.
Instructor Verren stepped forward, arms folded behind his back. His voice carried clearly across the field.
"This is what a duel should look like. Controlled. Clean. Calculated."
His eyes passed over the cadets watching from the benches.
What do you think?
