Chapter 57: The Reborn King!!!
Far away in the palace of the Emperor, the god of the earth nation sat down beside Emperor Dabill Wang as he pointed to the screen displaying the match;
"This kid gives me concerns." The god said with a serious tone.
"How can that be, you actually supported him in his last match if I remember correctly, what could be so scary about him? He is just a
6-year-old boy who has a lot of fighting spirit nothing more, he won't even amount to much in the future" Emperor Wang said as he took a bite from the roasted chicken in his hands.
"Just heed my warnings, be careful of that boy,"
The god of the earth Kingdom said before remaining silent.
Emperor Wang thought nothing of it and discarded the doubt without so much as a thought.
'The day I take a 6-year-old seriously is the day I become unfit to be an Emperor' the Emperor muttered to himself inwardly as he concentrated on the match!
General Suzie Wang who was outside came into the inner chamber of the Emperor, her brother, the Emperor.
"l learnt that a good show is going on in my school, is there any unique talent you fancy for me to train for you?" Suzie asked with an excited expression.
"They are all still too weak, ensure they graduate to the advanced levels of the elemental schools where they can compete with top fighters, then we will see" Emperor Wang spoke casually, making the excitement on General Suzie Wang's face drop.
She initially wanted to request for more funding using the school's improvement as a
bargaining chip, but now that her brother didn't think much of it.
All her plans have crashed like a meteor on a plain field.
Lancelot Jr saw the memory flashes that the spirit speaker was providing him, he became more and more invigorated as they came in, he was in front of Gerald Guye as they stood facing each other.
The referee was by the side watching.
The spectators were quiet.
The commentator didn't know what to say, they never expected Lancelot Jr to be able to rise up again.
"Even with you getting up, I will still send you to coma" Gerald Guye shouted as he charged again at Lancelot Jr.
Having gained enlightenment, Lancelot Jr became a very different person, his perspective improved as he punched out in the air,
'Tiger claw' Lancelot Jr muttered to himself as his arms transformed into tiger forelegs with sharp claws that attacked the incoming Gerald Guye.
Lancelot Jr used summoned smoke and fire to cover his tiger forearms to prevent the observant crowd from seeing.
Gerald Guye was too rash to notice the minute changes occurring in Lancelot Jr's aura.
He was in a frantic mode, not being observant or calculating as he rushed at Lancelot Jr, and in a minute, all the beast Titan felt was a sharp excruciating pain in his chest as he screamed out;
"aahhhh"
He saw blood sipping out of his chest, this stunned everybody,
Lancelot Jr didn't give him the time or the space to steady himself, he immediately went on the attack.
"Is that blood? The Beast Titan is bleeding, how did that happen?" The commentator spoke out in shock.
The whole arena was shocked by the sudden change.
Gerald Guye was the one previously on the offense, he clearly had the upper hand a minute ago and in a flash things have changed, just how is all this occurring?
Lancelot Jr punched with air and fire mixed together tightly, it penetrated the newly formed wound on Gerald Guye's chest.
Gerald Guye felt his strength rapidly drain and the pain intensified, he thought to himself, 'will I give up now to a first-year? Will I give up to a newbie? This useless powerless skank, 'Nooooo!'
He charged out at Lancelot Jr again.
Lancelot Jr spun in the air and used a back hill kick accompanied with fire to hit at the wound on Geral Guye's chest, the pain soared to a whole new level and spread throughout Gerald Guye's body.
He stood motionless with pain in his injured chest area.
'It is time', Lancelot Jr said in his mind.
He then jumped up as high as he could using his raised elbow, he collided with Gerald Guyels head at a terrifying speed and powerful slamming attack, knocking him out completely.
Gerald Guye wobbled for a second and fell with a loud thud that spree throughout the ground of the stage.
"Gabriel Li Wins!" The Referee announced.
Those three words broke so many hearts immediately.
That didn't stop Clara, Mr. Thomas, and The Principal with some few others in the crowd from screaming and Clapping.
Lancelot Jr's eyes were still filled with fighting spirit.
"The Fire King,
The Fire King,
The Fire King'
Lancelot Jr raised his hands and more people joined in the chant.
He had single-handedly changed his own fate and brought the crowd to acknowledge him, despite people losing money they just had to acknowledge his fighting spirit.
He was a real King,
An Element King.
"Well done Lancelot Jr, you have begun your path, you now have to build strength, I will help you every step of the way" the spirit speaker spoke softly before it remained silent.
"Damn! My wife is going to kill me, I took all the money she wanted to use for a particular investment and now the bet I made was all for nothing, this bastard won in the end" A man cried out in the crowd amidst the roar of joy.
"How did he beat the Beast Titan? The beast
Titan has been a powerful force on this campus , an unrivaled peerless genius of the 3rd year, Beast nation, in fact in the fourth year, very few people would want to fight the beast Titan, yet, this fire Elemental took him down, and not only that, he even knocked him out. This is beyond me, previously he even defeated, the Man of Steel, a first-year defeating two 3rd years, is this for real?"
A reporter announced as she faced a camera, she was a bit flustered as she stared momentarily at the stage and back at the camera in front of her,
"Let's meet the champion," she said as they both tried to walk up to the stage.
Suddenly a young boy with a mask on and the attire of the void assassins rushed up to the stage and grabbed the mic from one of the
reporters nearby.
He faced Lancelot Jr's direction and spat out;
"Hey punk, I heard you're the newbie making waves, I am a void assassin from the 3rd year, would you like to face off against me in the next round?"
The Void assassin said with a smile underneath the mask.
He was expecting a 'no' from Lancelot Jr.
After a few seconds, he assumed that Lancelot has rejected his offer, he then turned to the crowd to speak;
"You see, he doesn't have the...." Before the void assassin could finish his statement, Lancelot Jr cut him off;
"Allow me to speak before you jump to conclusions with your void brain"
This surprised the crowd, everyone was on their feet, and even the principal had to approach the stage, for the fear of him being attacked,
"I will face off against you in the next round," Lancelot Jr said confidently, everyone was stunned.
In just two games he defeated two 3rd year experts and not just any, experts but those distinct 3rd years considered to be top of their nations, and yet openly he was accepting another challenge.
What Kind of concept was that? The people thought.
During those two games he had also amassed so much money, enough to pay for two school sessions, he was at least happy about that.
He was confident enough to take on the void assassin.
Everyone dreaded going up against the void assassins, even the year five elementals would not want to face a void assassin, they were too formidable and their weakness was unknown.
In the entire world, only two people knew their weakness and both parties were dead.
They were Raymond Baldwin and Lancelot himself. This announcement just took the competition to another crescendo.
