Chapter 724: Sparring Part 3
“Did you know what happened earlier?” Theo smiled.
Levina couldn’t answer him as she had no idea. Everything looked the same except the first move.
It was at this time Lyovkin couldn’t help but drop his jaw in shock. “No way.”
Levina turned to Lyovkin with a dumbfounded expression.
“He actually used the first move to force you to go to the designated location. And before he ambushed you from behind, while running… he kicked the air to his back and created a violent gale and dropped it right on you with perfect timing, thus hindering you from moving.
“Although Supreme Rank Experts could feel that power, the participants in the competition wouldn’t be able to feel that one. That’s why you couldn’t move.”
Levina was dumbstruck as she realized why Theo asked her whether she could use her wind from all over her body.
“After this attack, you can actually do what you did earlier… the one that trapped me from two sides. This way, your opponent would think there might be another ambush from above.
“And when you actually did the one-sided attack, they might even force their way through that powerful gale to do something unthinkable. But this is just a stupid move because you could move to that spot in an instant.
“This applied if you trapped them from two sides as well. And if you actually used the corner to trap them, they only had one possible move.” Theo smirked.
“It’s to confront me head-on!” Levina sucked a cold breath.
“Exactly. You can show them your powerful hand-to-hand combat and launch them back here. Now that they have no guard, they will soon admit defeat.”
Levina’s body trembled. To think there would be so many things that could be done with a single move. And the only requirement for her to do that was to make them think something like this by doing Theo’s trick.
“Trapping someone is a normal tactic. But if you make them overthink everything, you can actually control them to do whatever you want them to do,” Theo added.
“There we go, the devil bastard.” The Wind Emperor chuckled. “To put it simply, what you did earlier was already great at your level. But it was merely to ‘corner’ your opponent. What he did was ‘controlling’ you to your defeat. This is the difference between check and checkmate.”
Levina was dumbstruck as she realized she had been too narrow-minded in how she used her power.
“Th-thank you very much.” Levina hurriedly thanked Theo for the lesson.
“It’s fine.” Theo waved his hand down, treating it as not a big deal.
Lyovkin simply couldn’t believe that Theo could do so many tricks with only a single move. And if they combined one move with another, the effect would be amplified.
Levina knew it too. That was why she could see so many things that needed improvement.
If before her ‘Idol’ stuff was a bit forced by her family circumstances, after getting this advice, she truly became his fan.
“Alright. Let’s stop the spar with this.”
There was a sense of regret on Levina’s face when she heard these words. Yet, she couldn’t show it because she had received so much from him.
That advice alone could be applied anywhere as long as she was creative enough to think of it.
“I understand. Once again, thank you so much.” Levina accepted it and thanked him for giving such a lesson.
She returned to her grandfather to receive his lecture.
“I guess I don’t need to say many things as he has covered most of them for me. What you have to do right now is to know your strengths and exploit them to the very limit.
“As he said, what you have right now is already good enough. But if you want to be one of the top of the younger generations in that competition, you need to utilize something like this.
“You still have more than a year to do this… Prove that you are stronger than anyone else.” The Wind Emperor smiled.
“Yes, Grandfather. I won’t disappoint you.” She nodded with a serious expression.
“Good. Just watch the next battle.” The Wind Emperor then glanced at Lyovkin, signaling him to go.
He nodded and walked to Theo.
“Please take care of me.”
“Likewise.” Theo nodded.
“Start!” The Wind Emperor announced.
Lyovkin didn’t hesitate to use all his power, not wanting to underestimate Theo. He created five tornadoes at the same time, trying to engulf Theo from all sides.
Theo glanced to the right and lifted his finger.
A huge wall suddenly emerged from the ground, covering him from the right tornado.
The Wind Emperor suddenly frowned when he saw this wall but didn’t say anything.
Meanwhile, Theo used his Magic Power Expansion and created a powerful shockwave to the left.
The two tornadoes from the left were destroyed and one tornado hit the wall on his right, leaving only two tornadoes behind.
Theo didn’t have any problem avoiding these two tornadoes.
At the same time, Lyovkin couldn’t help but step back as though he felt something.
‘What’s that?’ Lyovkin widened his eyes in surprise. ‘Something is coming, but I don’t know what it is…’
Suddenly, he looked at the ground and jumped upward.
At that time, twenty Magic Bullets came out from the ground.
He tried to fly away to avoid them, but Theo activated their Tracking Ability, not letting him go.
Lyovkin ended up creating a burst of wind that was strong enough to disrupt the Magic Bullet.
Boom.
Boom.
Boom.
The Magic Bullets exploded in succession, allowing Lyovkin to regain his ground.
After that, he flew toward Theo while waving his hand a few times.
The wind started moving in a random direction and soon trapped Theo in a wind sphere that violently moved in a random direction.
Knocking them alone wouldn’t be enough to destroy this technique.
Soon, Theo’s figure appeared outside the wind sphere.
Lyovkin had been waiting for Theo to use his Blink and took this opportunity to hit him.
Theo didn’t even react as he soon disappeared upon impact.
After that, two Magic Bullet flew into the air from the opposite side and split themselves into twenty before hitting Lyovkin.
“What?!”
