Chapter 584 - White Tiger
Chapter 584 – White Tiger
Seeing hundreds of freezing icicles shot towards the three Tigron was a petrifying sight to the spectators who couldn't stop shivering as their teeth chattered due to the sudden cold.
The surrounding temperature had plummeted, but the enthusiasm within the spectators increased as they witnessed how the first battle royale that seemed to have already reached its pinnacle became even more intense.
Everyone looked at the group of Tigrons with tense expressions when suddenly a white flash shot out of the higher up's rows, straight into the arena. An elder of the Tigron re-appeared with two prodigies of the Tigron race outside the arena.
They were drained of their mana as they had used every single trace of the stored energy within their body to exert their defensive martial art technique.
However, even that hadn't been enough, and only Xyna had been able to defend against the onslaught of the massive number of freezing icicles that had filled the entire sky.
Despite that, even Xyna's defenses hadn't been strong enough to deflect everything, and her arms were bleeding with faint frost marks spreading over her body.
The Tigron elder laid down the two prodigies he had carried out of the arena, only to sigh in relief.
"That was close…" He blurted out before taking away the strongest prodigies of their race's youngest generation if one didn't count Xyna.
They were brought to the infirmary to prevent their health from deteriorating further.
The elder was not a medic and couldn't exactly tell what was going on with the two prodigies of his race, but he was glad that they were still alive.
Initially, he assumed that they could easily defend themselves against the onslaught of freezing icicles, but the moment they collided with the thick shield of transmuted mana they had erected, this thought had been shattered.
The two young men were bleeding out of several wounds that thankfully didn't look severe.
Nevertheless, the freezing icicles, as the name suggested, could freeze them to death so it was better to let a medic check them.
Meanwhile, Jason had already turned away from the Tigron's group as he averted his attention to the other group.
At the same time, he spoke with the same serious voice
"Jarid, stall Xyna for some time. Her mana is unstable right now, so you won't be defeated immediately!"
Jason's voice didn't leave any leeway for Jarid, who could only look at Jason as if he had turned insane.
The moment he heard Jason's words, Jarid felt like punching him.
However, Jason's attitude showed that he did not request Jarid to do what he was told, rather ordered him to follow his instructions!
The arrogance and confidence Jason showed made Jarid furious, but he had already perceived that Jason's attitude had changed both times he had transformed.
However, this time it was a little bit different than before.
Right now Jason seemed to be extremely calm and rational, while he had been aggressive and impatient when he had looked like the form of a grand transformed Lizr.
A Lizr, yet stronger, wilder, and majestic, with the demeanor of a king!
Because of the difference Jarid perceived, he believed that Jason would attack him if he were to disregard his orders.
Furthermore, his advice seemed to be correct.
Xyna had been hidden by the mist that emerged when the icicles collided with the light shield which was a special technique the Tigron race had.
As such, Jarid could only sense her mana fluctuations that were unstable.
Yet, before he attacked her, the mist dispersed, revealing Xyna, who had been pierced by several freezing icicles. This surprising sight caused Jarid to wonder what exactly Jason's strongest affinity was.
His wide range of attacks was just too versatile, and Jarid had never felt as glad to have befriended Jason as today.
"Don't order me!" He snarled, only to see Jason smirk without saying anything.
Jarid was still feeling an itch in his hand, and he wanted to throw a fist at his friend, but that could wait for later.
Right now, he decided to trust Jason and stall for him to defeat the three strongest prodigies of the youngest generation belonging to the Hran, Hamaa, and Fyrmn race.
As such, Jarid released his thunder affinity and constitution at the same time which was enough to erupt huge thunder currents that enveloped him tightly, turning into his armor.
At the same time the third seal on Jarid's thunder constitution was about to break, revealing the distinct purple glow that radiated from his eyes.
Jarid pressed his feet against the ground, and it cracked under the pressure as Jarid leaned his body forward to catapult himself towards Xyna, who was breathing heavily.
She had never expected that Jason's attack would affect her so much.
Just a single freezing icicle had the strength comparable to that of an 8th Lique stage, but she had underestimated two things.
First, she had underestimated the massive number of freezing icicles, and second, which was even more important was the fact that Xyna hadn't expected the freezing properties to be so potent that they would freeze her defense attributed martial art technique!
This increased her mana consumption exceptionally with every single icicle that pierced into the light shield she had erected, forcing her to endure the steadily increasing mana consumption or the onslaught of freezing icicles.
As such, while taking a deep breath, she appraised her condition and saw Jarid from the corner of her eye.
His speed was terrific, and she knew that his pace was at least at par with her own, that was if she were to emerge unscathed from a fight!
The more she thought of Jason and his weird attacks, the more her head hurt. Thus, Xyna's focus subconsciously changed to Jarid.
He appeared right next to her only a moment later, leaning further down, barely reaching the ground as he slashed upwards with his daggers.
At the same time, he lifted his body, using the momentum to increase the lethality of his attacks.
As Jarid had expected, Xyna's extraordinary reflexes allowed her to evade his attack by a hair's breadth.
However, because he had already expected this move, Jarid didn't waste any time adjusting his stance as he followed up with several more attacks.
Xyna was barely able to start circulating mana through her body as Jarid's onslaught of rapid attacks consisting of strikes, slashes, and thrusts rained down upon her.
She had fought against Jarid several times in the past but never had the young Ilian been that strong before.
During the first minute they had encountered each other, Xyna was forced to retreat and evade every attack by a hair's breadth which was uncommon for her.
Under normal circumstances, she was the dominant force, and the current situation that was caused by Jason's attack enraged her.
As such, Xyna decided to change the tides as she unleashed a treasured technique her ancestor had taught her.
The image of a white tiger manifested behind her for a few seconds, releasing a tremendous pressure that caused Jarid to stiffen for a moment.
This was more than enough for the image of the white tiger to merge with Xyna, as her eyes seemed to transform.
At the same time, she released her mana, manifesting huge tiger prawns on top of her hands as she drew out razor-sharp claws that shined in a faint white light.
"Now we can fight!"
