Chapter 25: Anthony Vs Bryan
Bryan moved immediately the signal was given, slashing at Anthony’s neck.
Anthony parried the attack with one hand and the other behind his back, Bryan moved again cleaving at his chest, Anthony once again parried like it was child’s play, but this time he counter attacked and thrust at Bryan’s heart.
Bryan turned by sidestepping using the momentum to cut vertically at Anthony’s hand, which he blocked.
Anthony smiled at Bryan and they both immediately increased their speed and strength
Clank*Clank*Clank*Boom*Boom
The katana and sabre collided leaving explosion as they moved with pure physical strength, countering each other with new moves
Ravines were created as they moved, dust rose as they clashed, the entire arena was destroyed but it didn’t stop them
Air seemed to be split apart with each attack, the already destroyed arena seemed to disintegrate under their sheer force.
They only left streaks of light as they moved at speeds that broke the sound barrier, they were too fast to even leave after images.
Anthony appeared behind Bryan and slashed hundred times in a second with speed that many students won’t even match even if they enhance their body with mana, Bryan refusing to give up increased his speed and parried all attacks and countered by slashing at his waist.
Anthony simply jumped and landed on the tip of Bryan’s sabre like he was weightless.
Bryan looked at him with a frown wondering how he did that without any movement technique but he didn’t delay his actions
He withdrew his sabre to bring down Anthony, but before he could, Anthony already back flipped and landed a distance away.
He looked at Bryan who was sweating but had a steady breath and said
“I’ve matched you for five minutes now, if this is your best then you better end it here, I would be taking it up a notch from here, you might lose a limb or two”
“Don’t look down on me human” Bryan replied while taking caution to what Anthony said
“Since I arrived at this Academy I have been called Human countless times like it is my name, although I’m proud to be human but that’s not my name, but i guess at the end of the day, only power will imprint my name in your mind and soul”
Anthony blurred and appeared Infront of Bryan and swung his sword with pure force
Bryan reacted late but he still blocked but he was sent flying like a cannonball, tumbling on the ground, then he turned around and balanced himself skidding on the ground as he regained balance, he looked at Anthony
But the Anthony he saw was only an after image
The real Anthony already swung his katana a hundred times at Bryan creating hundred cuts on Bryan’s body but his dragon body helped reduced damage but that didn’t reduce the pain he felt.
Bryan immediately tried to counter by thrusting at Anthony’s left eye, but Anthony ducked and slammed the sword hilt on Bryan’s gut as he coughed blood and he was sent flying breaking wind barrier as he was sent flying backwards
The crowd watching could barely even follow their movements, only a selected few could barely see their movements with such speed
“Is this guy still human”
“Was he brought from a lab as a trump card”
“When did such a monster appear in the human race”
“Isn’t the human race too fierce this time”
“Yeah they even have up to six people in the top twenty this time around”
Bryan stood up, he was dizzy, he has lost a lot of blood, his bones fractured with ribs broken from the intensity of Anthony’s successive attacks but he refused to give up
Anthony just stood there looking and Bryan
‘The Dragon’s vitality is truly absurd, a human would be out cold by now if not dead’ he thought as he shook his head
