Chapter 762 - It's Too Easy
Grey naturally wouldn't allow this to happen. With a blink, he blocked the path of the Dual Elementalist as he was heading in the direction of the Water Elementalist. Well, so he thought.
Unfortunately, before he appeared to block the path, the Dual Elementalist had already gone through.
'I hate this speed.' Grey complained when he realized he was a bit too late.
Although the space element made traveling fast, in such a short place, the speed of the Dual Elementalist who had the light element was actually superior to Grey's. The reason for this was that the Dual Elementalist has a high elemental grade for his light element. So when Grey was creating and entering a portal, the young man could easily move through the length of the entire platform.
Of course this was only in the case of a short range movement like this. And if Void were to be the one in Grey's place, then he would be able to block the Dual Elementalist's path.
Grey didn't take this to heart. Since they wanted to team up, then he would beat them up together.
Three smaller inscriptions appeared in the sky, with two unleashing lightning attacks, the large one, and the remaining smaller one unleashed fire attacks.
The Dual Elementalist and the Water Elementalist felt like they were the ones fighting a one against two battle.
With the inscriptions and Grey's continuous attacks, they were unable to even get the chance to catch their breaths.
The audience couldn't believe what they were witnessing. Even though they were seeing it, it was still hard to believe. Grey, who was two stages below both of his opponents, was actually suppressing them in a two on one battle. If not for the Dual Elementalist, this battle would've ended before it even started.
Boom!
An explosion rang out, and the figure of the Water Elementalist was pushed back.
Before the Water Elementalist could regain his footing, Grey appeared close to him and attacked again.
His attack hit a wall that appeared in front of the Water Elementalist. It was the work of the Dual Elementalist.
Grey didn't feel frustrated by this and continued his attack. The Dual Elementalist was blocked by Grey's inscriptions, so for him to come over to where the Water Elementalist was located was extremely difficult.
The Water Elementalist used the time that Grey's attack was blocked by the earth wall to regain himself. However, he noticed there was presently a large array on the ground and his scalp went numb.
'What the hell?!' He almost fainted from fear.
He had no idea what this area was for, but he had a bad feeling about it.
Grey smiled when he saw that he had completed his array. Now, he didn't need to worry about the Dual Elementalist any longer. This was an array that would boost his teleportation speed by almost double. That would be enough to counter the speed of the light element in such a short distance.
Grey's figure faded from its original position, and when everyone looked around, they were stunned when they saw over ten Grey.
"What's going on?" Those in lower stages asked in fear.
"He's moving faster than he previously was. At this speed, before we can even register that he's in a location, he has already moved to another." A man in the Sage Plane in the crowd explained with a sigh.
He could already see Grey winning this battle after this. There might've been some hope for the duo when the Dual Elementalist still had the advantage in speed, but now, everything is over.
Grey was stronger, and now he has become faster.
The Dual Elementalist saw Grey's movement speed and his jaw dropped.
"How?" He muttered to himself.
Before he could even get himself together, the figure of the Water Elementalist was sent airborne, and a lightning bolt, accompanied by an earth hammer struck him solidly, sending him out of the platform.
The Water Elementalist crashed outside the platform and passed out.
Now, the only two left on the platform were Grey and the Dual Elementalist.
The Dual Elementalist gritted his teeth and attacked. He would never give up.
"Let's see who's faster." He said.
"I am."
Before he finished his statement, Grey was already behind him.
He tried to run, but Grey blocked his path easily and forced him to defend. Grey's array had given him the chance to nullify the speed of the Dual Elementalist. With this gone, the Dual Elementalist was no longer a threat to him.
After defeating the Water Elementalist, the Dual Elementalist was sent out of the platform as well in the space of one minute. Even after a second or two after the Dual Elementalist's defeat, the afterimages of both Grey and the Dual Elementalist were still on the platform.
Grey has made it to the top ten. Although there would be twelve participants after this, the three who took more time to win their battles would take part in another three-way battle and the winner would take the final spot in the top ten.
After being declared the winner, Grey walked back to his seat, with an indifferent look on his face. This was one of the most traumatizing experiences in the life of the Dual Elementalist. The speed he had been so proud of was useless against Grey. It had some uses at first, but after the array appeared on the ground, it became useless.
"You see, it's too easy for him." Klaus said to Kyle.
Kyle was once again impressed by Grey's prowess. At this point, he doesn't feel there would be anything that would stop Grey from taking the first spot. Well, unless Klaus loses and he has to fight four against one during the battle of the final five. As much as Kyle wanted to see how Grey would cope in a situation like this, he also didn't want to see Klaus lose just because of that, so he discarded the possibility of something like that happening.
