Way of the Knights-Chapter 842: Slow Motion Replay

—

Only a few people got the chance to actually see what happened during that three-way battle, these people are those who had higher cultivation achievements compared to the rest.

For the rest, the battle occurred far to fierce and swift for their poor senses to follow, therefore they could only wait until the final result was revealed.

Raven was of course aware of this so he did something in order to appease the disappointed crowd this time.

Just as the silhouette of the victor was about to be released, Raven paused the broadcast and modified the seal right then and there to replay the events that transpired in slow-motion, this way everyone will get the chance to see just how fierce the battle became.

The lights converged around them and before everyone knew it, the image of the three standing a couple meters away from each other, appeared. This was before the battle started.

Then they heard Kyle signaling the match to start and currently everything was playing in slow motion.

Once again, everyone witnessed just how enormous the aura of these three were. The sheer density of it completely outclassed the so-called geniuses of the Divine Realm.

With the play back being in slow-motion, they saw how they charged at each other. They no longer saw mere blurs, they saw them employing their movement techniques with such finesse that put other geniuses to shame.

Weapons clash and a golden sparks erupted. The sheer blow of their weapons caused the ground beneath them to shatter and their air to howl, it even sent a strong pulse that distorted the space around them.

Tori won the initial clash, breaking the guard of the other two with the sheer weight of her Warhammer. In a direct contest of raw power, Tori was always expected to win since she possess the greatest raw strength compared to the two, but of course, they're not going to let her take advantage of that.

Nina twirled her body and redirected the impact somewhere else, her petite figure twisted beautifully mid-air, sending several streaks of pale silver strikes that rained down on her sister and her man.

Kyle was a little slower to recover but still managed to use her greatsword as a shield by placing it in front of him. He clenched his free hand, forming a fist which glowed with a dense light. He then sent a punch that quite literally blew up the space, sending mighty ripples that blew the girls away and broke their guards.

Nina as usual recovered faster, using her grace and flexibility to redirect the blows coming her way. She moved like a graceful civet, twisting and turning to avoid harm. She also borrowed momentum from her twirls to send volleys of attacks to her enemies.

Tori on the other hand, slammed her Warhammer on the ground. The impact was controlled and calculated that the earth shifted and formed hills which received the attacks for her instead. After that, she struck hills with her hammer, sending waves of pointed rocks to her enemies.

Kyle grunted and pulled his greatsword. One mighty swing from him and the surroundings caved in once more.

Everyone vaguely saw how the battlefield shifted along Kyle's swing as if he's wielding the world itself, not the greatsword.

As the battlefield tilted with Kyle's attack, Nina and Tori lost their balance but they swiftly adjusted. They were used to this anyways so it's nothing new to them. Instead of relying on the ground for support, they relied on air instead.

Nina's eyes turned cold all of a sudden. She brandished her sword and all of a sudden, the air around her shifted.

The audience did not miss the feeling they got when Nina did that. They felt as if a sharp sword was pointed at their throats.

Those who followed the Sword Path felt a crisis stemming from the very foundations of their cultivation. Some of them even unknowingly withdrawn their swords, causing others to look at them in a surprised manner.

This reaction was expected, after all they just sensed the existence of Sword Intent raging from Nina's body.

Her Sword Intent felt dense and extremely sharp. It gave one an impression that with a sword in her hand, there's nothing Nina can't cut.

And that's precisely what Nina's Sword Intent represents – Unparalleled Sharpness.

The audience also didn't miss the way how Kyle and Nina's pupils constricted in alarm once they felt Nina's Sword Intent. They tensed up and prepared for the worst.

Nina gracefully brandished her sword, cutting through everything in front of her like a hot knife through butter. Her swings were filled with confidence, she did it like she was writing a passage of words. The result however was pure devastation.

She left numerous sword scars on the earth and even cut through the clouds. Kyle and Tori had to scram from their positions in order to avoid her attacks.

The Sword Enthusiasts – especially the young ones, at the audience were left gaping at her display.

Nina's Sword Intent was simple and direct, yet it's extremely effective. Just from seeing her use it gave them several ideas that they'd never consider before. It's as if she just opened a door that they never knew existed to them.

They have Sword Intent too, but in front of Nina's, it felt pathetic. Her Sword Intent appeared more liked a Sword Heart to them, yet they knew that it's still a Sword Intent.

The audience heard Kyle and Tori grumble. They even heard them faintly saying something like;

'Damn, she is not playing around'

'Close! Very close!'

'Oops! Nearly got me there.'

Honestly, nobody blames them for avoiding her attacks instead of receiving it. Almost everybody here would, for sure, lose a limb if they even thought about doing that.

Then, there's another shift that occurred. This time, coming from Tori herself.

Her body suddenly released a strong pulse and the radiance of her Dark Golden aura intensified. Her eyes even adopted its color.

Tori released a steamy breath. Then all of a sudden, she flew like a shooting star towards Nina. Her flight carried a ridiculous momentum, it was so intense that the moment she released it, all manner of chaos ensued.

Her strikes were akin to impact of a falling star. Even with the slow-motion, in effect, Tori's speed still turned her into a mere streak of light. She was like a ricocheting projectile that repeated harassed Nina and Kyle into submission.

She was swift and her attacks were incredibly dangerous. Now, not even Nina's sword can follow her.

In front of her fearsome girlfriends releasing their pent-up stress through battle, Kyle could only smile wryly and let them have some fun.

He didn't interrupt them, he endured it and waited for the perfect opportunity to surprise them both. But considering how fierce these two were and how familiar they've gotten to each other, he wouldn't be surprised if they knew his thought process as well.

Which is why it makes things a lot harder than what he expected. Nevertheless, he wouldn't have it any other way.

So, there he was. Taking blow after blow, barely being in time to not get himself eliminated first since he could almost swear that the twins were teaming-up against him.

Soon though, an opportunity presented itself.

All it took was a bad clash with Nina and Tori momentarily lost some of her momentum. Kyle's eyes suddenly sharpened and knew that this was the moment to strike.

Kyle planted his foot solidly onto the ground, he used his free hand to grab the very fabric of space and pulled it down.

The girls suddenly felt the world shifting once more and they obviously knew who did it. Still, Kyle was far from done.

After causing a tectonic shift, Kyle brought up another hand as he kept the greatsword away. He used both of his hands, pulling the gravitational field harshly. With a loud grunt, he released his hold and all of sudden, true chaos ensued.

The battlefield tossed and turned, space shattered again and again, winds howled, earth exploded and lightning started raining down on everything.

The girls felt greatly disturbed and disoriented. At one point, gravity was normal, then in the next second, it'll be gone or be heavier by at least five times. Kyle caused the battlefield to shift at each second that passed, promptly stopping their initiative altogether.

Kyle's greatsword appeared once more. Amidst the great chaos around him, only Kyle was okay.

He stabbed his greatsword to the ground and twisted it like opening a lock using a key.

All of a sudden, the whole battlefield exploded. Rocks suddenly floated and freely shifted it's size. Some grew as big as a meteor, some disintegrated. Rock formations appeared and disappeared. Sometimes there's mud, sometimes there's only sand.

All in all Kyle's actions resulted in a massive disturbance and upsets the current laws present in the battlefield.

Nina and Tori were sweating now because they knew.

They knew that Kyle already started his move and practically unstoppable once he started.

He now has a total control over the battlefield so whatever he says in here goes.. Now, his true counter-attack will start.
