Child of Destiny

604 Leonard Fireheart vs Simone Bartolomeo (Part 2)

...…

Leonard placed his left foot forward and slightly squatted his hips while pointing his left-hand fist forward with the other positioned right in front of his chest.

After that, his entire body was covered by an Internal Qi with a deep crimson color. And not long after, his evolved Aura Manifestation started to manifest behind him.

But unlike the usual Aura Manifestation that could only be seen by the targeted person, what Leonard currently had was now seeable by everyone. Moreover, it now had a humanoid figure instead of just being a beast.

Meanwhile, from the spectator's point of view, what they saw was a humanoid creature with three lion's heads and six arms, and a blazing magic circle behind it. Even if its entire figure was still slightly vague, it was clear that it was already close to being complete.

"A Battle Spirit. This kid is already very close to reaching the Ethereal Opening Stage and about to step on the Ascension realm," said Professor Valor while watching from the sidelines.

Hearing that, Professor Jennifer nodded her head before quickly adding. "And it is also not an ordinary Battle Spirit but a mutated one at that."

"An Asura and a Demon Beast, this mutated Battle Spirit reminds me of two particular individuals," said Professor Bullen who just arrived and sat beside Professor Valor.

Meanwhile, the other two professors simultaneously turned their heads at him and were about to ask who they were. But before they could even voice out their thoughts, another pair of professors suddenly arrived and sat alongside them; they were Professor Shane and Professor Billy.

And while taking his seat, Professor Billy answered the question that Professor Valor and Professor Jennifer had in mind by asking. "Are you talking about that Master-Disciple duo; Hundred Beast: Joaquin Geovanni and Blood Slaughtering Fist: Galileo Freeman?"

"But I heard that Master Galileo is still staying in Deep Blue Continent," said Professor Jennifer with a frown.

"Then this kid is most likely trained under Joaquin Geovanni," said Professor Billy.

"That is also impossible. I never heard that that Battle Maniac took any disciples up until now," refuted Professor Valor while shaking his head repeatedly.

Hearing that, Professor Billy shrugged his shoulders before replying. "Who knows that he actually takes his first disciple secretly?"

"What's more, those two were the only ones who know the training method for 'Demonic Blood Sutra', so there is no one out there that we can suspect as this little cub's master aside from them," added while looking at Leonard's Battle Spirit.

He then paused for a moment and shifted his gaze towards Simone before continuing. "But at the same time, this kid from Silver Wing Continent is not that bad either. It looks like we are going to witness another battle between the 'Demonic Blood Sutra' and 'Celestial Beast Scripture'."

Caster their gazes towards the direction that he was looking, the professors saw another partial Battle Spirit manifesting behind Simone as his jade-green Internal Qi covered his entire body alongside some black aura mixed in it.

The Battle Spirit was also a beast-like humanoid creature. It had a torso and a waist that were similar to bears, and a wide tiger's back. Its paws had four sharp claws each that were ready to rip apart anything that was going to come in contact with it.

In the meantime, the head that this particular beast had was a hybrid between, a bear, a tiger, and a lion. And the mane in its head was covering its back as it ran down all the way to its tailbone.

Bang!

The two opposing pressures that were coming from the bodies of these pair of little monsters clashed against each other as they tried to gauge the current strength that their opponent had.

The two auras tried to push each other but no one showed any signs of weakening. It was clear that both of them didn't want to wield.

Bang!

Not long after, the two of them simultaneously kicked the ground and charged towards each other before throwing their fist forward.

Boom!

Another powerful shockwave was sent outwards right after their fists collided with each other. And this time, they really made the whole place shake violently.

Even if most of the force from that collision was nullified by the barrier set, there were still some residual forces that managed to leak from it and made the gymnasium tremble intensely as if an earthquake was shaking it.

Seeing that, the Mentalists who sent up the Mental Energy Barrier immediately realized that they underestimated these kids a little too much. Then they quickly enhanced the barrier before these two young monsters destroyed it.

Unfortunately, their work became much harder because Leonard and Simone started exchanging more punches at that point in time, and created a very loud explosion sound every time their fist collided with each other.

And alongside those, the shockwaves that came from the point of impact made the Mentalists almost cry due to helplessness.

With that, they didn't have any other choice but to continuously channel their Mental Energy on the barrier to make sure that it was not going to collapse from the repeated assault of the shockwaves from the other side.

Realizing that they no longer need to concern themselves about the other participants outside the barrier, both Leonard and Simone became even more aggressive with their attacks, going all-out.

Reaching this point, Leonard was starting to lose some of his edge in their exchanges. He was starting to get overwhelmed by Simone's attacks, signifying the difference that they had in terms of body mass.

Leonard might be able to contend against Simone in terms of pure strength. But given that he had a relatively smaller body structure compared to the latter, it was pretty obvious that he would lag behind if it was a direct and continuous contest of strength just like this.

Given that, Leonard decided to go back to his previous approach and took advantage of his explosive speed.

First, he created some space between himself and his opponent before charging back once again with 'Devil's Footprint' while also throwing his offensive Martial-Art Skills at the same time.

By using the momentum of his charge, Leonard was able to have a much stronger force behind each of his attacks, making his opponent become wary of them.

Due to that, Simone started to dodge some of the attacks, especially that he started to feel that his innards were being shaken every time he tried to withstand all of the force from the impact.

Seeing that his technique was quite effective, Leonard started to become even much bolder with his attacks.

But it didn't take long for Simone to figure out the rhythm of Leonard's attacks and also found the weakness of the 'Devil's Footprint' a little later.

"I told you, your old tricks are useless. An attack that is always coming from a certain direction and going on a straight line is just a reckless assault even if it has both speed and power," said Simone sneeringly as he continued to dodge Leonard's attacks.

But it also didn't take for Leonard to respond with it. "Is that so? Then how about this?"

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Leonard started moving at random and circled around Simone with an unpredictable rhythm. He was still using the same foot technique, but instead of charging in a straight line, he was continuously changing the direction of his charge by repeatedly kicking the ground mid-stride and shifting it towards a different trajectory.

Seeing that, Simone also made some adjustments as soon as possible and decided to go on the defensive.

Ha!

Boom!

He took a horse stance and planted his feet firmly on the ground while releasing a greater amount of Internal Qi from his body, which quickly transformed into a transparent spherical barrier around him.

Not long after, Leonard repeatedly attacked the barrier from different directions, making it tremble violently.

Cracks after cracks appeared on the surface of the barrier every time Leonard struck it with his fist. And after a few moments, the cracks already spread all over it, signifying that it could no longer withstand the repeated assault thrown at it.

But at the same time, Leonard was also reaching his limit. The continuous execution of 'Devil's Footprints' was also putting a toll on his body, especially his legs. And on top of that, he was also using some of his offensive skills which also consumed quite a lot of his Internal Qi.

"Then let's end this with a single strike," muttered Leonard as he used the 'Devil's Footprints' for the last time and appeared in front of Simone.

Then he focused all of his remaining strength on his right arm before throwing his fist forward. And alongside it, he also twisted his waist and pivoted his feet towards the direction of his punch.

'Demonic Blood Sutra: El Diablo'

During those movements, the Internal Qi surrounding Leonard was suddenly sucked on his fist and created a glowing sphere with a deep crimson color similar to human blood.

At the same time, Simone could see the face of a wicked demon right behind Leonard, staring at him with its baleful eyes. But instead of being shaken by that sight, the former welcomed it wholeheartedly and responded. "I've been waiting for this!"

Then savageness filled his eyes while the expression on his face turned bloodthirsty. And while Leonard was shattering the barrier around him, the remaining Internal Qi around his body gathered on his fist which was patiently waiting on the right side of his waist.

He then thrust it forward, throwing a punch straight to Leonard's face while also letting all of the accumulated force that he gathered earlier explode at a point-blank range.

'Celestial Demon Scripture: Bestial Fervor'

Boom!
