Ancient Tears BloodLine

(Zack's POV)

My strength is stabilized, it's enough to kill Luke. Then I exited the pod chamber and headed towards the underground battle arena.

…

Since, the announcement was made. Many students skipped their class for this duel.

Though, the live broadcasting is banned. It doesn't stop them from gossiping with their friends and making speculation about the match. Even some went on to held betting. This type of betting is very common among students, it's also serve as a way to entertain themselves.

Many students dissatisfied earlier due to no show from Zack. But still they held it in their heart and looking forward to the match.

On the other hand, Elder Thornton also focusing on this duel. He witnessed the progress of Zack as his guardian. But only regret in his heart, that he didn't see his elemental ability.

"Harumph, that brat is done for sure. Does he think, he can live well after killing my grandson? " Elder Jensen sneered in his heart.

…

(Zack's POV)

A coupe of minutes later, I arrived at underground battle arena through the lift. This time Mr. Arthur and Ms. Key didn't came to receive me. They are currently in the monitoring room. But they did send me their wishes through their message.

Seeing the huge metallic door, I took a step forward and scanned my I.D.

"Creak" the door slip opens.

I took a step forward and entered inside. The same metallic smell assaulted my nose. "Why don't they put some refresher here?" I wrinkled my nose and stepped forward to the Circular battle platform.

Just as I landed my foot, I heard "Creak" opposite door slip opens.

"Coming!"

I looked ahead to see him. This time it's going to tough. I need to be cautious.

Luke with heavy steps entered the platform. Seeing me, his face blooms with vicious grin. " As expected, he is unkind" I couldn't help but think he has a ulterior motives.

I sighed internally, Since the matter comes to live or death duel. It doesn't matter, whether he has ulterior motives or not. I can only kill him. My pupils condensed having strong determination in my heart.

"Zack"

"Zack" Luke utters, while taking stride forwards to Circular battle platform.

"I really didn't expect a newbie to have such growth, Couple of months after entering the Academy(Hansen)" Luke sneered as looks at Zack's confident face.

"Well, I it's just a fluke Senior." I said with a small smile.

Hearing that Luke's face condensed. "Whether it's a fluke or not, It doesn't matter today you will die" Luke roared, He made a first move, He disappeared in an instant and appear in front of Zack in a blink of eye.

I turned on my perceptual ability in a instant. Seeing that this guy using his fist in full force. I used my palm to block it as defense.

Luke twisted his fist, he used his Peak level strength straight away. He want to crack his bones, then slowly torture him to way to his death. Ruthless glint flashes in his eyes as made his mind.

Just as his fist came closer to my face. I used my palm to block it.

"Puff" I neutralized his fist power directly.

Then I used Peak power of Trainee Apprentice, to kick his abdomen. I didn't want to reveal my full powers yet.

Seeing his fist is blocked. Luke expression condensed. "As expected, Peak power" Luke thought to himself. Instead of worrying, he is happy. He really made his preparation expecting Zack to be at Peak Power.

Seeing the Zack using his leg kick as counterattack.

"Harumph"

Luke snorted and rolled backwards. Seeing both of them neutralized their first encounter. They stood opposite to observe each other.

On the other hand, I'm surprised that this guy is hiding deep. He is at Peak level. Mr. Arthur is right, this guys is not easy. If not for me having timely breakthrough. Thinks could have been more complicated. But, I'm more intrigued about his element.

When I blocked his fist, I felt baleful aura for a moment. This kind of aura is very unnatural. It's either his bloodline or something to do have with his cultivation technique. So, when it comes to special element, I'm clueless. I never heard such an element has baleful attribute.

My interest even more piqued. No wonder this guy is so confident.

On the other hand, Luke is excited. He observed Zack for a moment and released his breath(aura).

In a moment, the atmosphere around the platform turned darker. His pale white skin slowly changes into dark complex. Within a moment, His whole body looked pale sick.

My expression turned solemn, "Bloodline" one word escape from my mouth. The bloodline warrior really makes me jealous. And Luke seems to be succeeded in hiding his talents. Even Mr. Arthur is clueless about it.

I took a sharp breath. This handwriting really vicious. May be this guy is doing shady stuff.

When I'm pondering it, Luke made an attack.

A Giant dark palm formed in the air. He ruthlessly pushes the giant palm against me.

"ssshhh"

I move back decisively to counter attack it. This dark air makes my heart palpitates. No wonder I sensed baleful aura earlier.

"Zack, take this palm and die!" Luke roared viciously as he executed his move.

Hearing that I couldn't help feel he seems to be turned into different person. And what is it with bloodline, I don't have any idea about it. If I could know which bloodline monster it is. I can ease my heart. My mood becomes sullen. But it doesn't stop me from counterattack.

"Sword Divide!"

I slew my dark sword against the dark palm. A radiant purple thunder burst from the dark sword and dashed towards it.

"Boom"

A bright purple thunder tore through the dark palm. Which dissipated in an instant.

On the other hand, Luke's mouth is wide open as "O".

He stood in disbelief. With a horror-stricken face, he uttered, "Lightning". Luke mind went blank. He wasn't able to think about a countermeasure for a time.

Seeing the dark palm vanishes, I immediately executed another sword divide attack. But this time I aimed at Luke.

As I swung my sword to execute another attack. Luke stand in a daze, I smirked seeing that. I expected this reaction. He seemed to be caught off guard.

As a bursting purple lightning dashed towards him.

On the other hand, Luke heart palpitates seeing another lightning attack coming towards him. "No, I can't face this attack directly." He roared in his mind.

He decisively sacrifices the defensive artefact. It's an earth shield. He instinctively ducks under the earth shield. The shield is very uncommon. This shield is muddy concrete.

As the fierce lightning lands a hit on it.

"Boom" smoke covers the circular battle platform.

Suddenly, I heard a cracking sound. As the smoke slowly clears out. I saw the muddy shield has numerous cracks over the surface due to overbearing attack.

On the other hand, Luke hands trembled in fear. In these few minutes, his mood turned upside down. At first, he thought, he could kill Zack. "Damn! This bastard has a special element " Luke gritted his teeth in anger.

He is a peak bloodline warrior. Using his poisonous breath he had killed numerous enemies. But this time he hit an iron plate. At this them, he can only wait for him to exhaust his energy. Then he will sacrifice all his artefacts in his hands.

He can still feel his veins under immense pressure due to that lightning attack. He couldn't imagine the result, what would happen if he took the direct brunt.

"Damn it!" Luke cursing himself. He side glanced at Zack who is preparing for his next attack.

His expression instantly turned cold with certain fear in it. He moved back decisively to widen the gap between him and Zack.

I snorted seeing his action. I knew he has some artefacts in his hands. Seeing that it can withstand Peak level attack, I should move with caution. Only by getting closer to him, I can use another lightning attack.

After sorting it out, I used my movement technique to get closer to him. My entire attention is on his actions. Who knows he might execute the weird attack again. My mental perception is catching his every action.

Then I released Special trainee power. My speed increased further. As a result, I caught Zack within a small breath of time.

Luke, made a move, it's another aerial attack. This time he released a dark gaseous attack on me. My pupils constrict seeing that move. I stopped breathing for a moment. It might be poisonous if I mistakenly inhaled it. It will be disastrous.

I feel my eyes hurt a little. "Damn!" I closed my eyes. And I used my perception ability to view him. As expected this is dark breath poison. I don't know what kind of weird poison bloodline it is. It's better to finish him sooner rather entangled in it.

If not for me having lightning element. This guy really would have a chance to kill me. Thanks to my overbearing element. I kill this weird freak.. I couldn't help but feel disgusted, seeing the twisted face of Luke.
