Rise Of The Dragon Emperor

When it was Ronan’s chance to finally show his powers the crowd was already super pumped to see what he could produce.

With Percy pulling of a nostalgic Augustus Special , and completely destroying the machine , the crowd wanted something major from the second prince as well.

The noise and clamour that was created when Ronan took the 25 meter spot was unreal , as unlike Percy who chose the furthest distance , Ronan chose the closest one as he got into stance for his attack.

Ronan had absorbed various fire elemental arts after coming to Avalon , and while his lightning control and lightning arts were undoubtedly superior , for this particular challenge Ronan decided to go with his fire attacks.

The entire crowd was anticipating a brilliant thunder strike as it was common knowledge that the second prince was a superior elemental user , hence when Ronan summoned fire , everyone gasped collectively for a second.

Ronan’s body had only about 2% fire elemental essence , which meant that out of his entire pool of elemental essence he could only use a very small portion of it to create fire attacks.

Most B ranked moves costed an average elemental user about 3-6% of their total essence and unless one had mastered that move completely it was impossible to do it with only 2% .

Hence when Ronan started to twist and turn his body while manipulating a stream of flames , everyone was surprised as to what exactly was the kid doing and why.

” Why is he using the fire element? ” a clan leader questioned_.

” Isn’t the second prince a thunder elemental user ? Thunder is superior to fire then why? “. another clan leader added

Discussions broke out amongst the judges and lieutenants as nobody could figure out Ronan’s true motives.

The only people who were not wondering as to what Ronan was trying to achieve were Augustus and Percy as they knew the move that Ronan was trying to pull off all to well.

‘ He can’t possibly do that …. can he? ‘ Percy thought as he watched wide mouthed , noticing Ronan’s every action.

Ronan danced elegantly between a stream of flames as he chanted his spell with rapt attention , and when he finally came into the final stance of the move , the seamingly haphazard moving flames above his head arranged perfectly into the form of a winged dragon.

Under the watchful eyes of thousands , Ronan pulled off his father’s signature move.

” Special Move : Winged Dragon Roar “.

The dragon made of flames instantly flew towards the intended target with blistering pace as its entire body became a blur as it cut through the elemental machine like it was made of paper.

There was no reading on the machine , as it did not even get the chance to note the power of the attack before malfunctioning into overload. As Ronan’s attack simply cut through the machine in half!

As the two seperated pieces of the machine slid and hit the ground , the audience went into an uproar at the ridiculous fire control that the second prince posessed!

Augustus saw a spitting image of Alexander in Ronan as everything from the moves execution to the expression on his face afterwards was the same as Alexander used to have in his younger days.

As to when did Ronan learn that move , or when did he master it. He had no idea as The winged dragon roar was a self made technique by Alexander and was not even documented in the royal archives yet.

While Augustus was sure that Alexander had never taught this move personally to Ronan , the question then remained as to how he perfected it.

Because if he perfected it just by observing it being performed by Alexander once or twice then the kids natural comprehension had already broken past the realms of common sense.

Augustus sweated at the monstrous talent of his second grandson as the other judges applauded in awe as to Ronan’s mastery of fire.

General Sam and the other lieutenants gave Ronan a standing ovation alongside the entire crowd who viewed Ronan in a positive light for using the traditional power of fire that symbolised the Draco family to win this round.

Although there was no score displayed nobody doubted Ronan’s capability and questioned his advancement to round 3 .

While executing the move gave Ronan extreme pride and joy he did not realise that by using fire he has inadvertently riled Percy up as his elder brother finally realised just how high his talent really was to perform a B ranked move with the amount of essence he had in his body.

This gave him the idea that in a stamina battle there was absolutely no way that he was going to be able to beat Ronan , as not only did his brother have better quality of essence but also had a more efficient usage , which meant that the longer the battle drew the more his disadvantage would be.

Feeling shaken up by the odds of him winning Percy could not rejoice in the pride that his brother was such an amazing warrior as while on any other day he would be swelled in pride , with the competition looming around the corner he could not help but feel scared.

( The next day )

Round 3 started next day and there were 200,000 citizens that were in attendance to watch the final round of the internal selection as there was going to be a free for all battle royale between all 19 contestants who had cleared round 2 for a total of 20 minutes after which the judges would roll out the top 4 picks.

The instructions were clear as to not maim or seriously injure any contestants and anything above C ranked elemental moves and D ranked martial arts was prohibited.

The martial arts limit were kept lower than the elemental attacks because of the psychological damage caused by Ronans punch .

The clan leaders feared that should Ronan Draco run rampant in the selections then only skeletons would walk out of the fight .

Every single judge actually beleived that Ronan and Percy deserved their spots in the top two and so did the audience , hence should Augustus have exempted them from round three , absolutely nobody would have protested , but Augustus did not want to.

In his mind he wanted to stick by the rules while also proving the Draco family superiority over all the other big clans .

Ronan and Percy were best examples of why they were the ruling clan of a nation and the others only controlled a town.

He was extremely proud of his grandsons and their accolades and wanted to show the other clans that if they ever thought about usurping power from the centre , there were these beasts that they would need to topple.

With Ronan and Percy fighting the best of the top clans in such an tender age , the psychological trauma would last for a lifetime as they would cower at the very thought of facing them.

As the free for all battle royale started , the 17 contestants nervously looked at each other and then towards Percy and Ronan Draco and soon realised that every single one of them were thinking the same damn thing.

Teaming up to face the two brothers , the situation quickly turned into a 2 Vs 17 .

However neither Percy nor Ronan were scared at all looking at their competition as both had nasty smiles plastered all over their faces as if they were mocking their opposition.

Looking towards Ronan , Percy said ” Sir this one out kiddo , it’s time for the crown prince to shine … “. As he jerked his hands to produce flames on both fists .

But before he could make a single attack , a terrifying burst of lightning came from beside him as he has to jump to avoid the attack as Ronan unleashed his first move

” LIGHTNING WAVE “.

As thunder waves propagated on the ground towards all directions 12 of the 17 contestants fainted upon failing to dodge Ronan’s most basic attack that was only ranked D in elemental attack index.

One after another bodies hit the floor and the crowd gasped to see that 12 of the 17 young masters of the big clans bit the dust following only a casual strike by Ronan.

Looking into the second prince’s eyes , the others realised that there was no remorse or pride or joy inside there , as there was only disgust for the weakness of the participating contenders.

Putting his hands behind his head ronan said ” Sure , big brother have your fun , these people are not worth my time anyways “.

As the various clan leaders wanted to puke blood hearing this comment , even Augustus felt a little worried at the show of strength by Ronan …. If only a D ranked move by him could faint warriors above level 60 … What could his peak power achieve?

A shiver ran down Augustus’s spine as he questioned if his grandson had already surpassed his strength at the tender age of 13.
