Treasure Hunting

Chandler was the most talented disciple of Gray; thus, he also received the secret manual on martial arts of his master called the Sumo Skill. This technique was not about the fist and foot, but with three attacks which were pouncing, grabbing and smashing, all of which integrated martial energy. Its true strength lay in the way that each attack flowed into the next, making a set of three attacks behave like a single attack.

Zachary was aware of this, so he planned to utilize the Shadow Pace to dodge Chandler's attacks. As long as he was not caught by Chandler, there was room for him to counterattack.

Zachary's face turned serious as soon as Chandler started attacking. He never expected that Chandler's attacks were extremely fast. Chandler was so fast that he got in front of Zachary and grabbed his right arm in the blink of an eye. Everything happened so fast!

Fortunately, Zachary reacted in time. His countermove was as quick as lightning. He broke away from the grasp of Chandler before the grip had locked in on him and thus avoided the attack. But Chandler seemed to be able to react just as fast. He exhibited extremely flexible waist strength. He rolled over, adjusted his angle, and once again pounced at Zachary. His movement was unbelievably fast.

Fortunately, the Shadow Pace was mysterious and powerful that Zachary dodged Chandler's attack narrowly, but in all aspects, he was completely at a disadvantage.

'Wow! A warrior at the ninth grade of Earth Level is really something! Besides, Chandler is more cautious than Gary. He has no flaws. As long as he keeps closing in, there's no chance to fight back.' It was immediately obvious to Zachary that this battle was more difficult than he had originally anticipated.

The disciples that watched the match leaned forward and strained to keep their eyes open, afraid they'd miss a single wonderful moment. They wanted to see when Zachary would get hit by Chandler so that they'd see the Sumo Skill combo in action.

"Where did Zachary learn that movement skill? With Chandler's strength, it's strange that he can't keep up with Zachary's speed!" Gray asked.

Lewis and several other stewards of the Welkin Sect knew beforehand that the movement skill that Zachary used was not the movement skill of the Welkin Sect. And now, as they observed the skill closer, they realized that this skill was not ordinary.

"No matter how fast his speed is, there will still be a limit. Look carefully! My disciple is not as stupid as any ordinary fighter!" Gray smiled confidently all of a sudden.

When the other stewards observed the development of the battle, they discovered that the range that Zachary could move was getting smaller and smaller.

But Zachary was also aware that his movement range constantly shrunk. He moved without pause in order to avoid the attacks of Chandler. However, because of the long reach of Chandler's arm, he was limited to only move within a certain range. He was only able to move backward that eventually forced him into a dead corner.
