Chapter 506: Start Of The Battle

As the chaotic battle progressed, Xiao Lin brought Ibeiya a bit further away to keep her from getting hurt. He fixed his gaze onto Valen, the alarm in his heart already at the maximum.

With more people jumping into the battle, spells started to fly within the hall, but the power levels were not that great. The castle was made with very good materials as well, and had very strong anti-magic properties. Xiao Lin understood why the tournament was held there.

Valen’s situation did not seem good, but his skills had caused some surprised expressions. The old man next to Ibeiya said that, as a necromancer, Valen’s speed and spellcasting were all much higher than usual.

However, since it was a group assault, with so many of them fighting Valen alone, after about ten minutes, the injuries on Valen’s body started to pile up. A lot of those who were attacking used black magic, which had a very strong decaying aura. Valen’s right hand was already half-rotten, revealing white bones underneath his flesh, which made for a shocking sight.

Xiao Lin’s eyebrows started to twitch. He noticed that, even though Valen was in a bad situation, his face remained calm. That hateful smile never left his face. The most important thing was that Valen’s breath was not the slightest bit erratic, causing Xiao Lin’s unease to increase, because that meant Valen had not used his full power.

Valen was a necromancer. Necromancy was different from elemental magic, but the principles were still the same. Casting rapidly was a huge burden, and jeopardized success rate and accuracy as well, but even with Valen’s heavy injuries, he still maintained a high level of casting.

However, it did not change the results. After a few minutes, Valen once again collapsed in blood. This time, they did not let their guards down, worrying that he would fake his death again. So, they sent a few spells at his dead body, causing flesh and blood to fly. It took until the corpse that remained did not even have a single piece of flesh left for them to stop!

The hall was once again excited. It seemed like a lot of them could not accept a young man like Valen standing at the top. However, the cheering lasted for less than a minute. Under the ugly expressions of everyone, the remaining flesh on the ground started to gather together and fuse. In just ten seconds, Valen once again stood in front of everyone with a strange smile on his face.

“Impossible!”

Resurrecting again dealt a huge impact on everyone mentally, the noise once again stopping in the hall. In skill and in numbers, they were absolutely at an advantage, but no one dared to advance at that moment.

“Big Brother, how is he coming back? He definitely died just now!” The worry began to show on Ibeiya’s forehead.

“Ibeiya, help me do something.” Xiao Lin looked around coldly before whispering into Ibeiya’s ear. Thinking about it, he said to the old man, “You leave with Ibeiya first!”

The old man did not understand, but Ibeiya had forcefully pulled him aside. It was quite chaotic within the hall, and after Valen resurrected again, he started another attack and killed several people. That was why no one noticed Ibeiya’s movements, but Valen sensed it, and his gaze quickly shifted over. Ibeiya’s white dress caught his eye.

Whoosh!

A Soul Disintegration spell flew over. Because Xiao Lin was far away, he was slow to react, but the old man had been on alert and blocked the green ball of light. The cost was half his arm.

“Your Highness, leave!” the old man shouted.

“But!”

“Hurry up and leave!” Xiao Lin hurried over, smiling. “Relax, I’m still here!”

Ibeiya nodded, understanding that it was not the time to be indecisive, and she rushed out of the city. Thankfully, there were no guards. Valen watched Ibeiya leave, and looked a bit angry. He quickly regained composure, as if saying that she could run tonight, but would not be able to escape forever.

“What did you ask Her Highness to do?” The old man still did not know what happened, but he felt like Xiao Lin did not just want Ibeiya to run away.

Xiao Lin opened his mouth, but he noticed that Valen’s gaze was still fixed on them, so his words turned into those of consolidation. “Don’t worry, I got Ibeiya to seek refuge at the embassy. Nothing will happen to her.

Xiao Lin was actually wondering if he should leave as well. His greatest guarantee behind being able to help Ibeiya in this tournament was the fact that he was a colonist, and would only lose twenty years of his life in the worst case. With his wealth, buying two bottles of novice Lifewater was not a big deal.

However, he was starting to have an unsettling thought, which was why he was hesitating. Yet, he was very clear that, if he left at that moment, then no one would be able to stop Valen. The young necromancer would completely subdue the dark clans here, and would be the absolute power behind the dark races in the royal city. Xiao Lin did not believe that Valen would have any goodwill toward Dawn Academy.

That was why the best choice was to settle everything there. It would help him, Ibeiya, and Dawn Academy eliminate any future problems!

If Xiao Lin’s guess was right, then he still had a chance to win. At least, in terms of skill, Valen was not unbeatable. The man was still too young; it was just the strange resurrection ability that caused everyone else to be unwilling to make a move.

“Is this the power of demons?”

“No, it might be the power of the ancient King of Darkness!”

“I heard that only the King of Darkness’s blood can resurrect without limit, but the St. Claude clan has already fallen. Even their bloodline is extremely rare now.”

“Could Valen be the new King of Darkness?”

…

The discussion in the hall suddenly died down. When they understood that it would be hard to kill Valen, the thought of submitting to the strong naturally took over. Since they could not fight him, they naturally could only follow him.

Just as the idea started to take hold and everyone was hesitating, they noticed that the stranger who came with Ibeiya had slowly walked forward.

Xiao Lin finally decided to stop being a spectator. Valen still did not suspect anything, and he needed to earn enough time. Valen was not surprised that Xiao Lin walked forward, and even moved a few steps forward himself, coldly smiling. “Since you’re Ibeiya’s fiance, then are you representing St. Claude to challenge me?”

“Challenge? No no no, challenging is done by the weak toward the strong. You’re strong? Ahem, that joke is not funny at all!”

“Are you trying to provoke me?”
