Re-Birth Of A Genius. Creator/Destroyer

2328  Second Match

The opponent's behavior has turned instinctual.

His thinking has been turned off for a great extent. It is a special bloodline of his. And with his thoughts as a price, he now gained great strength.

The Ape with its grin lunged at him.

A head on charge with no tricks. It threw a punch.

*BAM*

The opponent took the punch to his head, but he wasn't sent flying. He dug his legs into the stage and threw a punch at the ape.

At that moment…

*BOOM*

A bullet hit him in the path of his arm. It is not the same kind of bullet that Sam used until now. In comparison, the energy explosion is very small and it is almost harmless. The only thing it did was divert his punch.

Combined with Ape's movement to the side, it didn't even brush past it.

The punch is a miss.

*BAM*

Ape punched him from the side and this time, he crashed into the ground. The opponent turned to look at Sam and ran towards him. Its not that he is thinking here. He knew Sam attacked him from the side, disturbing his attack on his supposed prey, so he is going after him.

But even before he could take a few steps, the Ape already interrupted his path and punched him into the ground. When he was about to get up and attack, bullet made its way to him and deflected his attack.

The audience were dumbfounded.

They expected some spectacular match, but all they got is some treacherous trick played by Sam.

It seemed like Sam knew everything there is to know about his opponent.

He knew how to provoke that guy, he then knew how to make him lose his mind, he also knew how to make sure that his attacks won't hit.

The exchange between the ape and the opponent, turned into a brawl. Whenever Sam disrupted the attack, the opponent ran towards him. At that time, Ape grabbed him and slammed him into the ground.

As if its playing with a ragdoll, it smashed him left and right.

His beastly instincts could only think of attacking both the parties and since they are not at the same spot, he couldn't do it at the same time. When he tried to attack the ape, Sam is bothering him, when he switched them, the ape came and crushed him to bits.

The people looking at the brutality to which the opponent is being subjected to… they felt pity.

They didn't expect that the whole thing will be this easy for Sam.

Of course, they don't know how much research Sam has done to make it this easy. He indeed knew what the other party will react like and he also knew the weak points of his attack methods. That is the reason, he attacked with his bullets only at certain points.

The points where the lack of balance is apparent and the concentration of energy is critical.

Of course, even though he escaped it completely, the Ape still had to bear the brunt of the opponent's attacks now and then. But he took it with a smile.

He is only glad to fight to his heart's content. He has stayed in the divine dimension for far too long. So, now he got a chance to let it all out. A few injuries are a small price to pay.

The drawback of the other party's unique bloodline technique is that his stamina will run out. So, soon he couldn't even defend against the attacks like he did before. Ape's attacks became lethal. It started boxing him down.

That guy became desperate and he cried out. His skin cracked, blood started seeping out. His aura raged and for a moment, it is reaching the limits of what a Divine Plane Initiation cultivator should hold.

At that exact moment, the spatial energy Sam held until now in his hands disappeared from there.

At that exact moment…

*PSST*

A tear appeared in the chest of the opponent. And the spatial energy returned back to Sam's palm before it disappeared.

*BOOM*

A shockwave originated from the opponent's body. The backlash…

His energy flow has been disturbed and he had to face the backlash. Ape didn't wait anymore and just took the opportunity. It beat him down until he was nailed into the stage floor.

Sam won the match.

He smiled and let the ape go back into the divine dimension to recuperate.

He went back to the seat. His fellow participants looked at him.

That guy is as fresh as he was before the match began. He didn't even break a sweat. They really wanted to bash his head in. At least, they got to see the ape beforehand in the first match. The next candidate who is the second guy from the Set's academy is already drawing up strategies to deal with him.

The second round soon began.

Rashma as expected won without much effort. People started wondering where this woman came from. Because from what Sam heard, this is her first time in the Academy tournament. She was not part of it even during the freshman tournament in the previous years.

Even Sam didn't know much about that situation.

After Rashma's victory, that Set academy's student who used the illusions so well, managed to secure another easy victory. Not as easy as the one Rashma did, but easy enough.

Few matches are done.

Crow met the second Set academy student. This guy used necromancy. The sheer amount of the corpses he took out stunned everyone a little bit. And there are all kinds of corpses. They are also not some random rotting corpse, instead they were modified a lot. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

It would be more accurate to call them puppets. The corpse… it is just a medium to create that entity to become like that.

Crow was simply overwhelmed in the battle of attrition and decided to quit. He is already satisfied with the current ranking. He is in top 16 and he is kind of satisfied. He still has a couple of years to try his hand at the second grade.

And he is sure he can win next year.

The Set academy student came up to the stage unhurriedly. He is pretty relaxed. Sam smiled as he looked at him.

This guy… his skill set is comparatively unique. Even with the academy realm being so vast and being a gathering of so many talented individuals, most of the talents are common ones. Its just that their affinities are higher.

The bloodlines, unique constitutions are rare here also. Compared to a regular run off a mill realm, this place does have higher density, but it is not like you can swing a cat and it will hit one.

And among those rare ones, this guy is one of the holders of such a constitution. However, Sam knew this information because of the hub, this guy rarely ever revealed his constitution and the innate abilities that come with it to the outside world.

Even in the previous fight, he didn't use his full powers. He just used his elemental energy to increase his speed and used the daggers to swiftly deal with his opponent.

As Sam watched his opponent, the other party slowly activated partial shadow fusion.

"You better summon that monkey. Or you will not be able to hold on for long."

"I am sure I can make do. You continue."

With the shadow partial fusion, the opponent appeared in front of Sam in just an instant. The dagger came down at him. Sam also activated his partial shadow fusion and dodged to the side. The opponent is a bit stunned, but not for long.

There is indeed some information about Sam using many elements. He didn't lose himself in daze and continued his attack. Sam also took out a dagger and made a move.

*BANG*

*BANG*

The daggers met creating shockwaves. Sam is obviously on the receiving end of the brunt. The other guy is a peak stage cultivator. So, he relied heavily on the repel style and ripple style.

He tried to dissipate the energy imbued into the opponent's dagger to reduce the impact he felt. He also used that force to make himself move away from the opponent. Combined with the shadow element, the trick did a great job.

The clash continued. Sam's dagger play, movement technique and instinct everything worked on hyperdrive. He cannot even for one moment relax in the exchange.

The other party is clearly faster, stronger and might even be better than him in the dagger art. So, one mishap, he will be dead.

Maybe the other party realized that he might not gain much from this, when they were just about to engage once again, he suddenly activated the complete fusion. He brushed past Sam's dagger and tried to stab his into Sam's chest.
