Chapter 294 - The Peak
Chapter 294: The Peak
“Did you misunderstand something? You are not the one choosing the candidates for the match. I am the one who can choose!” Jerry understood what the other party meant after some thought.
In terms of cultivation, Ares, who was the top Tier 3 Divine King, was undoubtedly the strongest on his side. Hence, if the other party sent out the weakest member of their team, it was equivalent to giving up on the match.
The opponent wanted to win the match somewhere else, but Jerry did not want to do so. He had originally wanted to test the difference in strength between his side and the experts here. Sending out the weakest member of his team would not be able to test the strength of a fart.
Upon hearing Jerry’s words, Simmons’ expression changed. He did not expect the opponent to not give him any chance to operate. The situation now was stronger than the others, so there was nothing he could do.
However, such a one-on-one fight was much better than having so many people attacking him at once. At the very least, the chances of survival were much higher.
He wanted to defeat this guy in front of him, whose eyes were red and his face was filled with wild excitement. From his strength, it could be seen that the other party had just entered the realm, which he had already entered many years ago.
He could definitely win this round!
Simmons slowly walked forward.
Jerry clapped his hands twice, causing the entire hall to tremble. The roof of the hall slowly opened, revealing the sky above.
A arena that was tens of thousands of feet wide appeared in front of everyone.
It was not known what material this arena was made of, but a desolate and ancient aura emanated from it, as though it had existed for tens of thousands of years.
There were still various weapons left behind. It was unknown how many battles it had experienced on this stage.
“Alright, come!” Seeing this ancient stage, Ares became even more excited. With a loud roar, he ignored his opponent’s reaction and directly jumped into the stage.
Seeing this, Simmons no longer hesitated. He immediately stood on the stage. The current situation was very obvious.
Victory and loss were equivalent to survival and death respectively.
“Dong!” A distant bell sounded, as if it had passed through the ages and arrived on the stage.
There was no extra movement. As the bell rang, two terrifying figures collided directly like two meteorites. The heat wave that was stirred up could be clearly felt even outside the stage.
This was even under the condition that this ancient arena had isolated a portion of its power.
It was sufficient to show the strength of the two people on the arena.
Jerry leaned against his throne, his eyes staring at the arena. In fact, he did not know if this was right. However, if these people wanted to break through, they would have to go through such a life and death battle, otherwise, they would just be a bunch of flower vases with empty realms.
Furthermore, these people had no experience in fighting against a Tier 3 Divine King. If they were to meet other people next time, would they have to rely on numbers to kill their opponents?
On the stage, the two figures were like two bolts of lightning, constantly crossing each other. Every time they crossed each other, the sound of wind and thunder would ring out.
Initially, Ares was slightly weaker than his opponent because of his strength. However, Jerry was not worried at all. He knew that Ares had the second layer of his domain. Once Ares used the second layer of his domain, his opponent would not be a match for him.
It seemed that Ares did not have the intention to activate the second layer of his domain for the time being. It seemed that he wanted to test his own combat strength first. As the battle continued, Ares gradually regained the upper hand.
Simmons was getting more and more frightened. Initially, he wanted to defeat his opponent, but he did not want to kill him. After all, this was the territory of the Sky Dynasty. No matter how nice Jerry said it, once Simmons really killed the sky dynasty’s people, Jerry would probably turn hostile on the spot and bury all of them here.
However, as the battle progressed, the pressure Simmons faced became greater and greater. He even began to realize that he could no longer suppress his opponent. If he did not use his full strength, he would really die in this arena, so at this moment, Simmons did not dare to hold back anymore.
No matter what Jerry thought or did, it had to be after the battle had ended. If he continued to retain his strength, Simmons reckoned that he would not be able to walk down this stage alive.
A Ray of light that soared to the sky erupted from Simmons’ physique, forcing Ares, who was surrounded by a bloody glow, to retreat a hundred miles away.
With Simmons as the center, the golden chains extended outwards. In an instant, hundreds of chains appeared in front of Ares. Ares knew that these chains were not easy to deal with. As he roared furiously, a bloody aura burst out from his body, it almost dyed half of the sky red.
The majestic bloody aura pushed back the chains that had invaded Ares.
“Is this that fellow’s domain? Seems like he’s not too far away from the 2nd tier. It’s a pity that Ares has already grasped it.” Amongst everyone present, there was no one who understood domains better than Jerry.
After all, he was the only one who had grasped the 3rd layer.
On the stage, when the chains were knocked away by the blood energy, Simmons’ eyes were filled with shock. The clash of domains allowed him to know that his opponent’s domain was above his, that Fellow, who had just reached the peak of the Tier 3 Divine King Realm, had actually grasped the 2nd layer domain.
How was this possible? This was something that even he had not grasped.
However, Simmons was indeed a veteran. Although Ares’2nd layer domain had exceeded his expectations, he did not lose his composure and reacted quickly.
He changed his attack style. Since his domain was no match for his opponent’s, he would rely on his overwhelming strength to slowly grind his opponent to death.
Simmons no longer focused on attacking. With the existence of the second level domain, it was no longer possible for Simmons to directly kill his opponent. However, maintaining the second level domain was a huge burden to the user.
Furthermore, he had more divine power than his opponent. Seeing how Ares did not know how to conserve his divine power, Simmons knew that as long as he dragged on, the moment his opponent’s divine power was depleted, it would be his chance to win.
“I’ve lost!” On the throne, Jerry saw through Simmons’ intentions at a glance. Generally speaking, Simmons’ method was not wrong.
It was just that he had picked the wrong opponent. If it had been anyone else, he might have succeeded.
However, he had no choice but to meet Ares. Ares’ war god domain had always grown stronger with each battle. In addition to the blood-colored stripes on his body, he didn’t have to worry about exhausting his divine power at all.
Moreover, the most important thing was that Simmons hadn’t noticed that the blood-colored fog was getting thicker and thicker, almost completely enveloping the entire stage.
Even Simmons did not realize that he had changed.
