A Cultivation Tale: The Godly Punisher

Chapter 262: Contest III

"I, Nightfire, would battle this worm called The Godly Punisher." A student who was a genius from the Great Fire Wyvern academy said, looking at Alex with a smile that had mockery in it.

Alex too looked at him with mockery in his eyes.

Suddenly, Nightfire broke into a raucous laugher.

Then he ran towards the stage.

Whoosh!

Once he got to a few feet before the massive platform, he squatted and jumped into the air like he was catapulted towards the stage.

Bang!

He landed heavily. And immediately he landed, he aimed his palm out at Alex and discharged pyroforce energy from it which immediately turned into a solid palm that shot towards Alex with seemingly unparalleled furiousness.

Alex didn't try to evade it.

Clenching his hand into a fist, he sent it towards the massive fiery palm coming his way.

Bang!

The palm shattered into pieces and resulted in the release of powerful waves of destructive power that also radiated intense heat that would melt the earth.

Once his fist impacted the palm and resulted in the waves of devastating power and intense heat, Alex planted his feet firmly on the floor so that he won't be knocked far away and possibly off the stage by the tyrannical, heat-possessing kinetic waves.

Nightfire saw what Alex did and couldn't help but ask inwardly if Alex was a body cultivator. It was only body cultivators that could perform the feat that Alex just did.

Then with eyes now glowing in crimson which was the color of his pyroforce energy, Nightfire sent his two palms out and quickly discharged pyroforce energy from them which transformed into a dragon and a serpent that shot towards Alex at great speeds.

Alex smirked and ran from the side of the platform that he was towards the raging energy attacks.

Boom!

He punched the air and surprisingly, the air exploded to become an exceedingly strong gale of wind that swept towards the immense fiery attack coming towards him. One could compare this extremely high-velocity wind that had appeared when Alex punched out his fist to the violent air that would be released from tons of powerful energy bombs.

The raging, devastating currents of air went on to impact the fiery attacks shooting towards him.

However, there was no collision bang sound that rang out as the fast-moving but violent currents of air only tried to rapidly cool off the flames generated by the pyroforce energy.

In the next second, the fiery attack reduced greatly in size because of the destructive wind gale that impacted it. All the flames that were used to create the two attacks had been cooled, resulting in the rapid reduction in the size of the fiery attack.

Then Alex kicked one of his legs out towards the two fiery attacks shooting towards him.

Bang!

He kicked out against one of the two attacks which was the fastest.

Bang!

Then he powerfully swung that same kicking leg against the second attack coming his way.

Therefore, in that manner, he smashed the solid energy offensives of flame into fragments using his leg. And by fragments, it meant that they scattered apart into thousands of bright tiny sparks of fire.

However, the leg that he kicked out against the attacks caught on fire as some of the remnants of the fiery attacks became flames that began to burn around it. But they couldn't cause him harm in any way.

Then the soft breeze around Alex instantly became a powerful gust that instantly eliminated the flame burning on his leg.

"Hmm. Your flesh is strong! But see as I burn it away and cause you to have extreme-degree burns" Nightfire said arrogantly.

Then he jumped into the air, to a height of about fifteen feet.

Alex didn't jump after him, he waited to see how Nightfire was going to attack.

Once he got to his peak height in the air, and now aiming his two hands out at Alex, he uttered "Fiery Waterfall" and discharged large amounts of fiery energy in the form of a waterfall of Alex.

Possessing great pressure and emanating extreme heat, the energy that discharged from Nightfire's hand and behaved like a waterfall rushed down with rage towards Alex.

"Oh! That's your move. Nice. Perhaps I could copy it." Alex said with a smile.

Still seeing in slow motion, he saw as the fiery energy that erupted from Nightfire's hands fell towards him like it was a waterfall. Then he quickly aimed his palms out at the large, waterfall-like attack of fire that would soon impact him.

"Twin Ice Lotuses" Alex said.

Then a huge amount of frostforce energy erupted from his hands and transformed into two gigantic ice lotuses that moved to impact the attack that Nightfire sent.

Bang!

Bang!

The two huge, solid lotuses of ice struck the waterfall of fire and split it apart. Then it went on to impact Nightfire in the air.

Bang!

Argh!

Nightfire who shrieked in pain once he was hit, was knocked upwards to a greater height in the air by the heavy twin lotuses of ice that Alex sent out towards him.

Then a few seconds later, Nightfire who had lost control of his take-off into the air, and lacked good aerial maneuverability skills which he could have harnessed or made use of to twist his body in the air or put his body into some positions to land safely, crashed with a loud bang sound with his back to the ground.

Bang!

Then immediately he landed, the air in his lungs was knocked out of them, and he even coughed out a large mouthful of blood from his mouth. Also, he became dizzy from the impact of his back with the ground, with his vision blurring too.

It was amazing enough that he hadn't fainted from such a heavy crash.

Alex slowly walked towards him with a smile.

The prey was already in his trap. There was absolutely no need to rush.

Then once he got to Nightfire's front from his relaxed-pace walk, Alex powerfully swung his leg out towards his chest and kicked him off the stage into the far distance, where he crashed into the earth once again and dragged along it, eating sand and stones.

Alex then turned around to look at the people that were going to battle him.

Without waiting for the host to come back to the stage to ask if there would be anyone that would want to battle him next, he asked "Hey folks! If there is any of you that would want to battle me next, climb on stage now."

Haha!

Laughter bursted out from the people that were seated and were watching the match. They couldn't believe that Alex would act like the host himself.

Seeing that Alex had done with he was supposed to do, the forty-year old man that was hosting the event stayed back. He didn't climb on stage as he allowed Alex to do what he was doing.

- At the High Table -

"Hmm. The boy is quite powerful and skillful. I see that your Great Holy daughter has a good eye." The principal of the Great Fire Wyvern academy said with an impressed smile in his face to the principal of the Immovable Mountain Academy.

"Haha!" The principal laughed joyfully.

He was happy that they were beginning to accept Alex's battle prowess, and that they were also beginning to like him.

Not all of them anyways.

Some were angry in their hearts and even showed it. They just didn't want to burst out now in anger as they believed that the boy would surely be knocked off the stage very soon. Especially the ones from the Heaven Soaring Sword academy and Scarlet Fire academy. Their gazes gave complete hints of anger and impatience; impatience in that they just couldn't wait for Alex to be knocked off the stage, and then see the unbridled stupid looks in the faces of the some of the principals that were here and were beginning to like the boy that they totally disliked just for no reason.

Well, they just couldn't dislike him like that. There was definitely a reason. And this was because of his youngness and his totally amazing long-distance and short-range battle prowesses. They were simply, totally envious of it. Besides, he was an excellent body cultivator, and a cultivator of ice and wind.

But they didn't know that Alex could control much more realm-energy than that. And when they eventually discover that, they would definitely be shocked to the bones.

However, the other principals and every other person that were seated at the high table cared less about their gazes, as they weren't paying attention to them or to their feelings. They were only excitedly watching the battle that gave them shocks and thrills all the time.

Immediately after that principal spoke, another who was from the Twisting Blade Dragon academy said "You are right Dylan, he's quite powerful. The Great Holy Daughter of the Immovable Mountain academy truly has a good eye. Just look at the boy that she chose to be with. He's quite domineering in battle. No wonder she is so confident about his combat abilities and stares adorably every time at him as he fights. Such intense love that might not be matched by any other. However, I am sure that her lover would surely be beaten very soon. When the genius from my academy climbs up that stage, the boy would definitely, quickly be defeated. It was just that those two boys that climbed up the stage to battle him are simply no genius, only normal hardworking students looking for popularity, sincerely"

"What?!"

The principals that were seated at the high tables had their eyes shine in astonishment, while the principals of the two boys that fought Alex and were humiliatingly defeated, had their eyes glow in serious anger.

"Oh! So you think that your student would do better than mine? That trash-quality, absolutely useless genius of yours? We shall see then. I definitely can't wait to see the beautiful stupid look that would appear in your face when your boy is kicked hard off the stage by the face, like it was a ball. Haha" The principal of the Heaven Soaring Sword academy harshly said and wickedly laughed.

***

"Come up here fellas, don't tell me that you little boys are scared of fighting me. Didn't you want my celestially beautiful future wife's hand in marriage? Therefore, since you do, jump up to this stage this moment. Or go back shamefully and disgracefully to the seat that your filthy asses stood up from"
