Chapter 168 - 168: You Shouldn't Humiliate Him Like This!
"Does Elder Colton have any thoughts about the Taylor family?" Lance Lin's expression was conflicted at this moment, he couldn't quite figure out Colton's intentions.
Isn't this just openly sending something to Zane?
Could it be that Colton thinks the Taylor family is stronger, more suitable for collaboration than the Robinson family?
Lance Lin felt he was beginning to grasp Colton's thoughts. Using this duel as a pretext, he was actually sending that high-level auxiliary training potion to Zane.
Thus expressing goodwill in advance and laying the groundwork for future cooperation with the Taylor family!
That seemed to be the only possibility. Could it be that he genuinely believed in Charles and thought he would win?
Impossible, absolutely impossible!
Lance Lin pushed that unrealistic thought out of his mind. While contemplating how the Robinson family could win back Colton, he kept an eye on the situation in the clearing.
He saw David Zheng and Charles both getting into position.
Neither side chose to strike first, instead, they were unusually in sync, observing each other, hoping to find flaws and weaknesses.
David Zheng scrutinized Charles for a few moments, then set aside a hint of disdain and became completely serious.
His experience was extensive, from Charles's current state, he could sense that the opponent was not so simple, at the very least, a formidable opponent!
Without hesitation, David Zheng conjured two fireballs in his hands and hurled them at Charles.
This was the skill "Fireball Throw." belonging to his fire-type mystical beast! It was a relatively common skill among fire-type mystical beasts, with moderate attack power.
The reason he chose to unleash this skill was that David Zheng didn't expect these two fireballs to inflict any damage on Charles, it was merely a feint!
Sure enough, the two blazing fireballs suddenly changed direction just before reaching Charles, colliding with each other.
In an instant, the fireballs crashed together, creating a screen of flames!
This completely blocked Charles's line of sight, and at that moment, Charles couldn't see David Zheng's movements at all!
"What the hell, it can be used like this? Isn't this just the most basic 'Fireball Throw'? How can it also be used to obscure vision?"
"Truly impressive, a man who has survived the battlefield, David Zheng is really strong!"
"What should Charles do? He must not have anticipated this use of the skill, he must be completely bewildered right now!"
"What can he do? He'll just lose!"
Celestine instinctively grabbed Catherine's arm, deeply worried about Charles's situation.
To her surprise, Catherine reached out and placed her hand on Celestine's shoulder, saying:
"Don't worry, Charles will be fine. Although the fire screen created by 'Fireball Throw' blocked his view, David Zheng also lost sight of Charles!"
Sure enough, in the next moment, the fire screen vanished.
David Zheng was already prepared for his follow-up attack, but he was stunned because Charles's figure had completely disappeared!
The timing and location of today's duel were perfect, it was nighttime, with only the lights from the banquet illuminating the surroundings, creating many shadows, ideal for Charles to use 'Darkness Cloak'!
Seeing Charles vanish from the clearing, Zane's pupils constricted in shock as he desperately
"Enough! You need to pay the price, Zane." Charles said, unable to watch any longer.
Zane stopped, his eyes locked on Charles as he replied, "Price? What price? This isn't my duel with you, go find some other damn fool for your price!"
Thinking of David Zheng, Zane couldn't hold back. He pulled his right foot back, ready to deliver another vicious kick.
Unexpectedly, Charles acted. He swiftly extended his right leg to block Zane's attack!
The effect of the Temporary Enhancement Potion was still active. Faced with Zane, a level five Beast Master, Charles's physical attributes still fell short. He staggered back while grabbing the fallen David Zheng.
"Charles! What are you doing! I'm punishing this damn fool, and you want to intervene?" Zane exclaimed, his face full of anger and dissatisfaction with Charles's actions!
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Charles slowly helped David Zheng up. He took a revival pill from the jet ring and fed it to him.
After doing all this, Charles turned to face Zane, who was seething with impotent rage, and slowly said:
"He's not a fool! He's a warrior who has slain hundreds of enemies! You shouldn't humiliate him like this!"
