Chapter 201: Barbarian Battle Master!

As he was left with few invisibility talismans, Whittaker decided to save them for an opportune time. These will be extremely useful in a situation where he has to run away from a group of contestant killers or a horde of beasts.

From the previous battle, he had realized that invisibility talisman didn't help make a sneak attack if the other party have a mana sensing skill. Similarly, he also clearly knows that he was strong enough to battle D-rank and maybe even C-rank mages and battle master. That's why he didn't take extra precautions.

Walking alone in the Grand Canyon did not require much time before he was targeted by a dangerous opponent. Although he was Devansha's vision, Whittaker did not notice that person who was staring at his youthful face with the intention to fight and kill.

The Silver-ranked Barbarian was hiding within the lush greenery of the Grand Canyon while Whittaker was traveling alongside the stream. That's why he didn't notice a pair of silver eyes that stared at his defenseless back with murderous intention.

Gah! Gah! Gah!

The silver-ranked Barbarian battle master, who was three sizes larger than a normal human, suddenly rushed out from within the lush greenery. This barbarian was covered in silver equipment from head to toe. He was wearing silver armor, boots, and silver bracelets and both its hands wielded a gigantic silver ax.

Whittaker heard heavy thumping noises and turned to stare at the source; However, Whittaker barely managed to observe him before the silver-ranked barbarian hurled its incomparably heavy Class weapon, the Silver Serpent Beheading Ax. It flew like a rocket. And as it spun rapidly, the ax grew in both width and size. In an instant, the ax sharp edges reached Whittaker and threatened to chop him in two halves!

The barbarian race is a battle race. Their bodies are unique and they are birthed for battle. Their hunting instinct is above average, and this is their best quality.

Everything happened too quickly, too suddenly. If it was an average E-rank awakened in his situation, their body would have been chopped in two before they could even react.

However, Whittaker was not an average E-ranked awakened. He was a dual awakened with mental fortitude surpassing all prodigies. He was even held in high regard by Elder Zachary for his mental fortitude. He summoned Blood Drinker with a single thought, and the moment before the ax could hack at his body, he slashed his sword horizontally, and at the same time, poured 3 units of battle energy to activate [Three-Clawed Blood Slash].

A scarlet slash shaped like a wolf claw collided with the giant ax but shattered under the impact and the Silver-serpent Beheading Ax crashed on his S-ranked sword.

Boom! As if a mountain has crashed on his sword, Whittaker's entire person was sent flying over the stream and towards the rocky cliff.

Ban! The overgrown Ax, on the other hand, smashed on the ground and deeply penetrated the earth. A long cut line was made and the Earth continuously trembled because of the battle energy gushing out of the Ax. This battle energy widened the gash. From just this, it could be seen just how terrifying this attack was. Moreover, the silver-ranked Barbarian battle master who owned this class weapon was even more terrifying.

Just when Whittaker was gonna crash into the cliff, in mid-air, he hurriedly spun around and smashed his foot on the water, and at the same time, poured 3 units of battle energy in the same foot.

Bam! With a single powerful leap, he climbed up the cliff and stopped at its edges.

[Barbarian Sonjuki (Contestant Killer)

Rank: Silver-ranked Barbarian Battle Master

Elemental resistance: 35%

Physical resistance: 37%

Hp: 800/800

Battle energy: 380/520]

As he gazed at the Silver-ranked Barbarian Battle Master, Noah notified him of the barbarian stats. Also, he could see that this person's name was deep red. That means he has had killed a lot of contestants.

Furthermore, this barbarian had already attained the peak of silver-rank. The barbarian was divided into Iron-rank, Copper-rank, Bronze-rank, Silver-rank, Gold-rank, Dark Gold-rank, and Platinum-Rank. A silver-rank Barbarian Battle Master was equal to a C-rank human Battle master.

"A barbarian! Their men look as ferocious as Magical beast while their females are as pretty as fairies. The books didn't lie,"

Whittaker was excited to see a Barbarian in real life for the first time. He had only ever read about them in books but never seen them in real life. His blood was boiling!

The Barbarian race was abnormally powerful, and their bodies were nothing less than a treasure. Even the most common amongst all barbarian will give birth to "Battle Energy" as long as they "Breath" after undergoing the "Awakening Ritual". Moreover, their bones overgrow and their heights increase the more battle energy they have. Human battle master and mage of an equal level were unable to take more than a few hits from them.

However, their bodies were enormous, resulting in their Movement Speed being relatively slow. Although they could use battle energy for movement bursts.

The God that barbarians worshiped was the Goddess Serpentine. Since they worship only a single Goddess, the Class weapon of the barbarian race was divided into two.

A: Ax.

B: Ancestral elemental Soul.

The color of their class weapon determines their potential. Sonjuki had awakened a Silver-Serpent Beheading Ax. His potential was silver-rank and he had already achieved it. His battle core was filled to the brim with battle energy; However, as a barbarian, he could absorb battle energy in his body, too. That's why he has 20 more battle energy than the max limit of the C-rank battle core.

A C-rank battle core can only contain a maximum of 500 battle energy but a person would have to open a total of 480 Blood vessels and energy passageway.

Whittaker and Sonjuki stared at each other in the eye. One standing above the cliff, the other nearby the edges of the stream.

"None of my prey have ever escaped. You can't run away from me. It's better to fight me like a man and if you can't, then prepare to die!" The Barbarian shouted by putting battle energy in his voice.

Whittaker's ear rang because of the booming shout. There's a massive difference between low rank (F-E-D) battle master and high-rank battle master (C-B-A). Even the voice of a high-rank battle master could be used as a weapon and Whittaker was experiencing it first hand.

He felt that his ear will bleed if he doesn't do anything fast. He took out two noise dampening talisman and used one on each of his ears. Now, even a loud shout will be like a cat meows to his ears.

"I'm interested," Whittaker replied while gesturing to the barbarian to come and fight him.

He wanted to know whether he'll be able to tackle a C-rank Barbarian on his own or not. Thus, he didn't summon King Eighteen. He thought, 'But if I am not able to defeat Sonjuki and the situation requires then I'll summon King Eighteen!' 

"A good warrior. Worthy to die under my hand!" Sonjuki smiled and extended his arm and the huge AX flew back to him. Along the way, it's size also decreased.

The barbarian clutched the AX in his hand and immediately followed after Whittaker. Sonjuki was so powerful that when he slammed his foot on the ground, three to four trees fell, the ground cracked and his body shot like a rocket towards the cliff.

Whittaker wasn't gonna give him an easy time either. He summoned Frost Spellbook and rained down dozens of Frost Bolt on the Barbarian. However, to the barbarian with around 900 health and a 35% elemental and 37% physical resistance, his attacks barely tickled him. But, Sonjuki speed still decreased by some percent due to the frost bolt debuff. 

Nevertheless, Sonjuki still successfully landed on the cliff and rushed towards him with an Ax held in his hands.
