Master Gao cai

Gao Bao was secretly shocked; he didn't expect Gao Ming to complete the Fireball Technique so quickly. His second Petrification technique wasn't finished yet, and Gao Ming had already unleashed the second Fireball Technique.

Everyone at the scene was wondering if Gao Ming had just awakened his supernatural abilities. This was the collective thought of everyone present.

Gao Jia's face became even more unsightly. She hadn't anticipated Gao Ming being this formidable. Achieving such a fast completion speed for supernatural abilities—she probably couldn't do it herself.

Bang!

The fireball whizzed past Gao Bao's ear, then exploded in mid-air due to the collapse of the bursting characteristic sequence. A vast expanse of firelight scattered, resembling a dazzling firework display.

This time, more people were affected. Fortunately, those close by were awakened individuals with defensive capabilities, and the sporadic explosive firelight was not enough to cause significant harm.

Disturbed by the fireball, Gao Bao's just completed petrification light sphere lost control and collapsed. Fortunately, he threw it out quickly; otherwise, he might have been the one petrified. That would have made him the first earth-elemental awakened individual in supernatural ability history to petrify himself.

In truth, Gao Bao wasn't that bad, but he underestimated Gao Ming, allowing him to seize the initiative. In battles between awakened individuals, having the initiative is the most crucial factor and can determine the outcome of a fight.

Next, Gao Ming's execution of the Fireball Technique became increasingly proficient. One Fireball after another formed in his palm and then shot towards Gao Bao with a howling sound. Gao Bao, besides dodging, could only occasionally use a Petrification technique to counterattack. Unable to regain the initiative, he had completely fallen behind.

Onlookers marveled at Gao Ming. He didn't look like someone who had just awakened; he seemed like an experienced and powerful awakened individual. Especially the high frequency at which he completed the Fireball Technique—most ordinary Elemental Fighters couldn't match that. What puzzled everyone even more was how a level 94 awakened individual like him could sustain such a high frequency of Fireball Techniques?

Gao Bao, in a sorry state, dodged the whistling fireballs, which exploded one after another around him. Due to his pride, he didn't use defensive supernatural abilities like Dark Shield. However, the sporadic firelight hitting him was painful despite not causing significant damage to his strong body. His black robe was also riddled with burns.

Suddenly, he felt a sense of danger and had to set aside his pride. He hastily deployed the Earth Shield technique in front of him. This supernatural ability was executed smoothly; before the fireball hit his face, a bright yellow earth shield formed in front of him.

Bang!

Another loud explosion. The hastily arranged Earth Shield disintegrated. Although it neutralized most of the fireball's explosion, Gao Bao was still violently sent flying. Resisting explosive supernatural abilities like the Fireball Technique wasn't a wise choice. Gao Bao was now tasting the bitter consequences.

Ah!

Thrown to the ground, Gao Bao roared in anger. Clearly defeated by an awakened individual, he lost a considerable amount of face. Rising from the ground, a bright yellow light enveloped his body. This was the Earth Elemental Level 2 supernatural ability—Earth Light Possession. It had much greater defense than the Level 1 Earth Shield.

At the same time, he gathered a mass of bright yellow energy in his hand and shot it towards the ground where Gao Ming stood.

Gao Ming, over these days, had not only studied the basics of fire-element abilities but also gained some understanding of low-level abilities from various elemental series. This one was obviously a Level 2 Earth Elemental ability—Earth Sink. It included the characteristics of gravity and adhesion.

Using a Level 2 ability already, this guy seemed to have lost his sanity due to being defeated by Gao Ming.

Gao Ming casually cast a fireball towards Gao Bao and prepared to jump to the side. However, the Earth Sink Technique had already hit the ground, showing its effect. Gao Ming suddenly felt his body become heavy, making it difficult to move his feet. The sudden change in gravity and the ground's melting adhesive force trapped Gao Ming in a difficult situation.

Gao Ming noticed that the hard ground under his feet began to melt. His feet sank into it, and an adhesive force made it impossible for him to lift his foot.

The sudden change in gravity and the adhesive force of the melting ground plunged Gao Ming into a dilemma.

"Gao Bao, stop now! ~~~~~~"

A light and fluttery voice came, and then everyone felt the entire ground shake. An elegant figure in red appeared not far from Gao Ming.

It was Master Gao Cai.

Under the recent ground shake, Gao Ming felt the surrounding heaviness disappear. The ground also returned to solid form, but a clear footprint appeared where Gao Ming stepped.

When Gao Bao was about to release his completed petrification technique, he heard Master Gao Cai's words. His body trembled, and the earthy yellow light in his hand suddenly bloomed, enveloping Gao Bao. The Earth Light Body Technique he had previously applied dispersed the effects of the petrification technique.

At this moment, Gao Bao could be described as coming out of a refugee camp. His black robe had no intact areas, his face was covered in soot, and his hair was singed. He looked extremely miserable. It was no wonder that he angrily used second-level abilities. Unfortunately,Gao Ming's teacher, Master Gao Cai , coincidentally made an appearance. No matter how great the grievance, he could only endure it.

There was no way. Master Gao Cai , apart from her profound and mysterious fire-based abilities, held a noble status.

"Teacher ~~~~~"

"Aunt ~~~~~"

The former was shouted by Gao Ming, and the latter came from Gao Xiao's mouth.

It turned out that Gao Cai was the daughter of the clan leader Gao Meng, and she was also Gao Ming's aunt.

Gao Ming didn't expect to have such a relationship with his teacher. No wonder even a wild woman like Gao Jia was afraid of Gao Cai. Gao Xiao was probably no exception. At this moment, Gao Xiao's expression was no longer as calm as before, but rather a meek and obedient look with his head lowered.

"Disperse now ~~~~~~ Gao Ming, come with me!"

Gao Cai waved her hand, looked at Gao Jia and Gao Xiao with a light glance, then called out to Gao Ming and walked into the valley.

After Gao Cai took Gao Ming away, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. In front of Gao Cai, they all felt a heavy and overbearing oppressive force.

"Gao Xiao, will Master Gao Cai be angry?"

Thinking about Gao Cai's indifferent gaze before leaving, Gao Jia felt her scalp tingling and her heart uneasy. Gao Cai had warned her earlier, and today, they had been caught red-handed. No wonder she felt uneasy!

"No, don't worry. I know Aunt's temperament. If she's angry, she'll probably explode on the spot. Gao Jia, let's go!"

Gao Xiao smiled bitterly and, with a lowered head, dared not look at Gao Cai. He appeared meek and obedient.

"Everyone, disperse. ~~~~~~ Gao Ming, come with me!"

Gao Cai waved her hand, glanced lightly at Gao Jia and Gao Xiao, then beckoned to Gao Ming and walked into the valley.

The crowd in the valley quickly dispersed, leaving only some servants of the ability users standing far below the stone house. They whispered about the recent events. For them, ability users were like gods. Being able to witness a battle between ability users was an exciting experience, and it would be a capital they could boast about in the future. Especially for the servant who drove the horse carriage for Gao Ming, he became the envy of everyone.
