After a series of earth-shattering explosions, Locke was still unharmed.
Hart was going crazy!
‘What the hell is going on?’
‘What on earth?’
At this moment, he finally noticed the faint layer of fire enveloping Locke’s body.
His intuition told him that that the layer of fire was the reason for his imperviousness.
Upon realizing that its grenades was ineffective, the gorilla immediately pulled out the two daggers from its waist and charged at Locke.
Locke sent the Battle Beast flying with a single strike from his flaming spear!
“Are my eyes deceiving me? Or did a human actually send a Battle Beast flying?”
“Locke is strong, damn…”
“He’s really strong, wow!”
Naturally, Locke had to thank his Stage 2 Body Tempering for his strength. Moreover, after making contact with the gorilla, Locke was able to read its stats via the System.

“Is this the best the Military Academy has to offer?” Locke’s eyes flashed and he launched Hurricane Piercer at the gorilla.
Boom!
The gorilla, that had been sent flying and had yet to land on the ground, was once again severely injured. It slammed into the wall, and it was immediately put out of commission!
Hart did not expect the gap between him and Locke to be so huge. His eyes were filled with fear.
A small green snake had appeared on the platform. It rapidly grew in size and with a sweep of its tail, it sent Hart out of the platform.
“You’re even worse than Dominic! You better be prepared for the punishment you’ll receive once we get back… Get lost!” Bronte’s voice rang out from behind Hart.
“Yes! I understand my failure!” Hart withdrew his Battle Beast and returned to the preparation area for the Military Academy in a sorry state.
The moment Bronte appeared, the atmosphere of the entire stadium instantly ignited. Shouts and whistles rang out continuously.
“Bronte has finally stepped up!”
“He looks so handsome in his windbreaker!”
“Locke is in trouble now…”
“Come on! Bronte, I’ve bet my house on you…”
Bronte’s popularity had practically surpassed that of a celebrity.
A mere instant later, his green snake had shrunk again and it returned to Bronte’s shoulder.
“Locke, I’ve been looking forward to this battle for a long time!” Bronte’s eyes were filled with excitement.
“You… Oh right, What’s your name again?” Try as he might, he could not recall Bronte’s name.
Bronte was furious. “B*stard! I’m the heavenly genius from the Advanced Military Academy! I’m the future Commander-in-chief of the Federation… Bronte!”
With that, the little green snake on his shoulder shot towards Locke like a bullet!
Its body suddenly enlarged in mid-flight!
In response to the python-like enemy, Locke summoned Lil’ White and used Spatial Movement to dodge his opponent’s fangs!
“It’s not over yet…” As Bronte spoke, another hiss came from behind Locke. It was another little snake, and it suddenly enlarged in an attempt to restrain Locke!
“Oh, you have more??” Locke asked, while effortlessly dodging the new snake’s attack.
Upon looking down at the platform, Locke noticed that there were now a dozen or so little green snakes!
“Don’t be surprised! As long as I have enough mana, these snakes will continuously spawn!” The mana in Bronte’s body surged, and the dozen or so green snakes suddenly enlarged into giant pythons. Then, they lunged at Locke!
Nevertheless, Lil’ White had shown no mercy to its brethren. It immediately released its skill, Freezing Arrival!
The pythons were immediately pinned onto the ground!
However, Bronte was not angry. With a wave of his hands, a dozen more little green snakes appeared on stage!
They attempted the same attack as their predecessors!
Although Locke was able to keep them at bay, there was no end to the green snakes! They constantly popped up on the stage like mushrooms after rain!
“Hahahaha… isn’t this a pleasant surprise? There are so many snakes, do you know which one is the main body, though?” An instant later, the newly spawned green snakes had turned into the size of giant pythons!
Suddenly, they fired off rays of yellow light at Locke!
The spectacular scene had caused the audience to exclaim in surprise!
“Wow! This is so cool!”
“This move is perfect! Locke must have been stunned!”
“What do you mean stunned? He should’ve been knocked unconscious!”
The Ambush Light Wave was Bronte’s renowned ultimate skill. It was a finishing move that had defeated plenty of opponents before Locke.
“Tch… It’s already over, huh?!”
Bronte was confident that he had won, and he was already returning to his seat.
“Senior Lawrence… Bronte seems to be very powerful…”Rossetti gulped, and she readied her Battle Beast to heal Locke and his Battle Beasts.
Even Lawrence was left speechless by the intensity and the breadth of the yellow light waves.
However, once the light had subsided, Locke was nowhere to be seen!

While listening to the System’s mental description of his opponent, with the aid of Lil’ White’s Spatial Movement, Locke suddenly appeared before Bronte!
“You… !” Bronte was obviously shocked, and he hurriedly took a few steps back!
“Epic rank, huh… That’s not bad, but unfortunately, its still too low…”
While he spoke, Locke launched a Light and Dark Spatial Slash at Bronte!
“Snake Formation!” Bronte reacted quickly, and immediately summoned over a dozen pythons to block the attack.
Naturally, they were no match for Lil’ White’s ability, and they were instantly frozen solid!
Instead of being turned into ice sculptures, however, the ice wheels had shredded them into pieces!
Bronte did not expect Locke’s attacks to be so swift and lethal.
Left with no other option, Bronte continuously expended his mana to summon new pythons to block Lil’ White’s attack!
At the same time, he ordered the other pythons to fire Ambush Light Wave at Lil’ White!
This was the climax of their duel, and it had gotten many of the spectators excited!
The students from the Alpha Federation University had stood up as well. Moreover, Andre was greatly excited by Locke’s display of strength!
‘There’s no way that you won’t run out of mana…’ Believing that Locke’s Light and Dark Spatial Slash had expended a lot of mana, Bronte had wrongly assumed that he was in a battle of attrition!
