Chapter 411: Letizia Part II
411 Letizia Part II
"Next!"
The arena turned into an uproar when they saw one of the rank 5 Alchemist died just like that.
"What happened?"
"Her ice was so powerful that it could even freeze the ice."
"No way. What kind of Ice Element was that?"
"I am getting a goosebump by seeing it."
The people had yet to understand the reason why. After all, there were only ten rank 5 Alchemists in the continent, and Letizia killed one of them. They were wondering whether she was daring or just not afraid of the retaliation from Alchemist.
With the fact that she could kill him that easily, only the sect masters who were Martial King could defeat her. Luckily, she was still a 9-Star Martial Lord. She would not last long in this tournament. And the people from Mount Hua Sect knew that they needed to kill Letizia in this tournament. If not, their sect might perish the moment she became a Martial King.
"What should we do?" Su Hua asked. He was the last 10-Star Martial Lord in the Mount Hua Sect after Mahiir was killed.
"We need to kill her. If we don't kill her, all of us will die the moment she becomes a Martial King."
"That's right. Did the Heavenly Sword Sect know about this and make the alliance?"
"But according to our information, she was the one who searched for her 'Love one,' and it was someone in the Heavenly Sword Sect, not Mount Hua Sect. If the one she searched for were a weakling, then Rainbow Flower Sect would stop her after looking at her talent.
"Still, in reality, Rainbow Flower Sect even came to the Heavenly Sword Sect. Although we heard the alliance was a failure, their relationship still continues." Su Hua explained.
"Yeah, you are right. Just by looking at the Martial Grandmaster competition, it is easy for us to deduce they have a solid relationship. After all, with the alliance of four teams, they still band together even though we clearly want to eliminate Heavenly Sword Sect."
"Who gave the order to attack Heavenly Sword Sect? Our sect will be ruined because of this."
"It was the sect master."
When they heard that, they were stunned. In fact, they already knew the answer. They just wanted to deny it in their heart, but one of them said it out aloud.
"We can only kill her in this tournament. Ultimately, she is only a 9-Star Martial Lord. We can exhaust her again and again until we kill her." Su Hua said.
"We also need to be wary of her Ice Element. I don't know what kind of Ice Element she has, but it is certainly powerful. As Elder Su Hua said, we need to kill her in this tournament. We can lose this tournament, but as long as she dies, there is a chance for our Mount Hua Sect to rise again."
"That's right. However, this strategy requires sacrifices." Su Hua looked at the others.
Normally, they were pretty scared, but at this particular moment, all they had was courage. Courage to do something reckless as long as they could kill Letizia.
If Alex's Pure Fire could burn everything, then Letizia's Pure Ice could freeze everything, even the wind or lightning, let alone fire, which was its natural enemy.
"I will go first." One of the 7-Star Martial Lords said. His expression was severe as he had resolved himself to die. "Long Live Mount Hua Sect."
"Long Live Mount Hua Sect." The others also shouted while looking at their teammates who had prepared to die.
He came to the arena while covering himself with Fire. The domain made by her 'Ice of Infinity' was still there. The arena was not fixed to boot, so the Ice Wall still stood tall on the arena, albeit around half of them was destroyed because of the tornado earlier.
Letizia looked at him from the top of the ice wall. There was nothing to say to the like of him since he was going to die anyway.
"Oliver. Remember it as this name is the name who will kill you." He was pretty young as he was one of their core disciples who somehow got chosen because half of their elders died.
Letizia did not say anything like he was never in her eyes. She just looked at the announcer so he could start the match. She might be able to buy time until Oliver started freezing, but it used too much time, and she was too tired to do it each time.
"Match Start!"
Oliver immediately charged toward her. After observing her fight against Mahiir, he could see that Letizia was not good in close combat. Sadly, because of the difference of power, he forgot that she had a 40 meters Sword Domain. It might not be enough for Mahiir, but it was certainly enough for Oliver.
She immediately released her Sword Domain.
"Fire Chain." Oliver made a chain from fire and threw it toward Letizia, wanting to take her sword away.
Letizia wanted to deflect the chain with her Sword, but when it almost touched the sword, the fire flared up.
"!!!" It knocked her sword away because she did not use her entire strength to hit the chain. She clenched the sword handle to make sure the sword did not slip from her hand.
The chain then circled around the blade. Oliver smiled when he saw this, he just needed to pull the chain, and he would have her sword.
Sadly, the Sword in Letizia's hand was an elemental Sword. Letizia immediately channeled her Ice Element to her Sword, and the sword immediately boosted the Element. She found this after experimenting with the sword after Alex gave her.
"Ice of Infinity." She used the same technique as the one that froze the field. But this time, she concentrated it in her sword, not using it around the arena. Because of that, the sword contained an almighty overbearing Ice Element. It immediately froze the fire chain on her sword and the rest of the fire chain, including the chain that Oliver held.
"!!!" After seeing that, Oliver immediately threw his chain to the ground, but he was still too late. Because the freezing was too fast, it managed to freeze his entire right hand before letting the chain go. "Argh!"
The pain and numbness filled his right hand. He tried to move his hand or fingers, but it was too painful just to move it. He felt his arm might even shatter if Letizia hit it like what she did to Mahiir.
Letizia then jumped forward, not giving Oliver any chance to sort of the pain.
"Shit!" Oliver raised his hand while covering it with his fire.
When Letizia's sword clashed with his hand, she felt a sense of rejection. She felt his hand was rock solid, like a shield.
Letizia narrowed her eyes as she channeled her Ice Element to her sword. The Ice Element started freezing the flame that covered his hand. She then gritted her teeth and pushed out another surge of strength.
"Not Good. I surr-!"
Before Oliver could finish what he said, Letizia destroyed the frozen hand before cutting Oliver's head right behind it.
"Even that old bastard is not qualified to kill me, let alone you." She then turned to the Mount Hua Sect, "Next."
At first, Letizia thought she could only fight two or three people, but after observing her Pure Ice Element as well as the sword that Alex gave. She felt she could fight all of them. It was one of the advantages of an Ice Elemental Sword. The sword did not only boost her Ice Element but also made controlling her ice through the sword easier.
After they confirmed Oliver's death, they immediately sent another 7-Star Martial Lord to the arena. They did not want to give her time to recover her energy.
Because of two deaths, the fighter from Mount Hua Sect did not talk anymore. Even so, Letizia could still see the eyes full of killing intent.
"Match Start!"
The guy immediately raised his two hands. From those hands, stemmed two big fire snakes. He then made those two snakes charge toward Letizia.
Seeing this, Letizia only pointed her finger toward the two snakes. "Zeroth Ice Blast."
She shot out a laser like attack filled with her Pure Ice Element. The guy from Mount Hua Sect might be full of killing intent. Sadly, it was still not enough for him to challenge absolute power. The moment her attack touched the two snakes, it immediately froze the snakes.
This was the difference in power. Unless he were as powerful as Mahiir, he would not stand a chance against Letizia.
"It seems all of you have forgotten that I am a Sword User." She swung her to the ground. The sword released three blue balls that flew toward the guy.
"!!!" The guy immediately raised his hands as he made a kind of flame shield in front of him. "Ren Flame Shield."
"It is futile," Letizia said calmly.
The first ball touched the shield and instantly froze it. The second ball then broke open the shield while the third ball pierced his head and froze his brain.
"!!!" When Alex saw this, he was a bit astonished. He might have underestimated her too much. Just from these three matches, he might need to go all out to fight her. Of course, he felt his Phoenix Fire should be enough to defeat her, but it would be a bit of a gruesome fight.
"Fu…" Letizia took a deep breath as she checked her Spiritual Energy. After her fight against Mahiir, she wanted to conserve her Spiritual Energy since the fight with Mahiir took her thirty percent of energy. This was the reason why she did not use any big move in the last two fights as she relied only on her Elemental Advantage.
Luckily, Mount Hua Sect was a place full of Alchemists and Forging Masters. She might go down after two or three fights if they had any other element or weapon users.
The Mount Hua Sect continued to exhaust her power with the other three 8-Star Martial Masters. They had fought bravely, but it was still futile. At the very least, they managed to exhaust 70 percent of her Spiritual Energy. In other words, she only had thirty percent left to defeat one 9-Star Martial lord and Su Hua.
She was wondering whether she should surrender at this point. But she remembered Alex. For him, she needed to surrender as to his greater cause. So, at the very least, she wanted to set up the prestige for Rainbow Flower Sect, so even if they admitted defeat later, they would have enough reputation.
That was all just her thinking. As for the other people in the arena, they had been sucking cold breath this entire time. Not because of the cold air, but because they were too shocked by Letizia's performance. With just her alone, she managed to kill six people from Mount Hua Sect, including Mahiir.
If it continued like this, she might be able to defeat Mount Hua Sect by herself. Upon realizing that, a feeling arose in their heart, especially in the heart of a woman. They might have a weaker constitution than men in general, but it did not make them weaker than them. Letizia was the proof of that.
"Win… Win Rainbow Flower Sect!"
"Rainbow Flower Sect!"
"Letizia!"
"Letizia!"
When a woman started cheering, another followed her. One to two, two to four, and ultimately, it spread to the entire arena. No matter their gender, there existed the hope that Letizia showed them in the arena. Even after getting exhausted by six fights, she continued to hold on.
The arena became like an away game from Mount Hua Sect. Even so, it did not hinder their desire to kill her.
Her next opponent was the last 9-Star Martial Lord. He came to the arena and said.
"I did not participate in the war since I was guarding the sect back then, but now I will surely kill you."
"You are not qualified."
"Hmph. I wouldn't underestimate myself if I were you. After all, I am different from them, I am…"
