Chapter 155 155: Aiden Vs Max





"Where are we going to fight?"

"Your fight will take place in the arena." 

"Arena? I don't see one here."

"Hmm... Take another look."

With a snap of Keldor's fingers, a stage materialized before the crowd, instantly creating the battleground for their duel.

In the blink of an eye, Max and Aiden, wearing the life-preserving amulets provided to them by Keldor, stepped onto the stage.

Taking his position on the stage, Max locked eyes with Aiden, looking down on him with a challenging gaze.

Filled with confidence, Max boldly declared, "This fight will end as quickly as it began."

In a moment of wonder, a breathtaking blue symbol materialized in the open sky. From within the mystical symbol emerged a creature of immense grandeur.

The Ice Hawk, towering at an impressive height of five meters, captivated the spectators with its majestic presence. With sharp claws primed for combat, graceful wings poised for flight, and a regal horn adorning its noble head, the Ice Hawk was a sight to behold.

As soon as it appeared, the surrounding atmosphere grew increasingly cold, as if the air itself shivered in response to its power.

"Finish him," Max commanded.

Following his order, the Majestic Ice Hawk exhaled a powerful burst of icy air from its mouth. The cold blast froze the air vapor as it descended towards Aiden.

Aiden swiftly retaliated, summoning a torrent of spectral fire that surged forth from his outstretched hand. The spectral flames danced and flickered with an ethereal glow, meeting the frigid blast head-on beneath the expansive sky.

Boom!

A resounding reverberation rang out as a mesmerizing clash ensued above the arena. The ghastly fire's illusory grey hues engulfed the frozen air, casting a warm but dim glow against the wintry backdrop.

Gradually, the relentless fire emerged triumphant, consuming the icy chill and leaving behind a lingering heat that filled the arena with an enchanting warmth.

Max's eyes widened in shock and disbelief as he witnessed Aiden's ghastly fire overpowering the chilling blast. His confidence wavered for a fleeting moment, a mix of surprise and uncertainty crossing his face. The unexpected turn of events sent a jolt of surprise through his veins, forcing him to quickly reassess his strategy.

The crowd, on the other hand, sat speechless as they watched in awe as the victorious flames surged forward, leaving a trail of dissipating frost in their wake.

The torrent of ghastly fire collided with the majestic Ice Hawk, engulfing it in a fiery inferno. The intense flames greedily devoured its once elegant wings and feathers, transforming them into charred remnants. The majestic creature, now ablaze and crippled, lost its ability to stay afloat and plummeted towards the ground with an ominous descent. As it crashed, the impact resonated through the air, echoing with a dull thud that reverberated in the hearts of the onlookers. The once regal presence of the Ice Hawk was now reduced to a smoldering wreckage, its fiery demise leaving a trail of smoky tendrils mingling with the crisp air!

Aiden fixed his eyes upon Max, a derisive smirk playing upon his lips, as he confidently remarked, "Your prediction proved true, indeed. This battle concluded as swiftly as it commenced, with the victor standing before you—me."

The crowd erupted into a mixture of impressed gasps and enthusiastic applause at Aiden's taunting remark.

"This lowly fucker…"

Max's face contorted with a mixture of frustration and anger as Aiden's taunt pierced through his pride. His fists clenched tightly, his knuckles turning white with the force of his grip. A visible twitch ran across his jawline, revealing the extent to which Aiden's words had unsettled him. He failed to conceal his emotions, and his narrowed eyes burned with a potent mix of disgust and disdain. The source of his revulsion was evident – it stemmed from Aiden being a control-type cultivator. Within that disgust lay an intense desire to dismantle Aiden, as if tearing him apart would somehow purge the distaste Max felt toward his opponent.

Evan, observing the myriad expressions that flitted across Max's face, marveled at Aiden's finesse in provoking such a range of emotions. He muttered under his breath, "He truly possesses the knack for getting under someone's skin, doesn't he?"

Annika, standing somewhat shyly next to Evan, couldn't help but release a soft chuckle at her younger brother's audacious nature. With a hint of pride in her voice, she quipped, "That's my brother for you."

Ylva leaned closer to Annika, her voice barely above a whisper, and shared her insight, "Aiden's words possess a cutting edge, don't they? It's as if he has a keen sense of knowing exactly what to say to rattle his opponents. To me, it seems like Max's emotions might get the better of him. If he acts shamelessly and allows his anger to drive him, he'll only be playing into Aiden's hands."

"Let's see what happens," Evan remarked with a curious tone, unsure of how the escalating situation would unfold.

Back in the arena, Max, his emotions boiling over, responded to Aiden's taunt with an angry and unwilling tone.

"I won't let you get away with this."

In an act of desperation, Max channeled his soul energy into the wounded Ice Hawk, its body bathed in a vibrant surge of revitalizing power. The majestic creature, rejuvenated by this infusion, emitted a resonant hum as its wounds slowly healed and its strength was replenished.

With a commanding gesture, Max directed the Ice Hawk to unleash its wrath upon Aiden. The creature responded eagerly, its massive wings beating with renewed vigor as it soared towards its target. Every feather glimmered with a newfound intensity, ready to strike with a force that echoed the depths of its master's fury.

"By succumbing to anger and behaving like a child, you've only succeeded in further humiliating yourself, Max." Aiden taunted, his voice laced with a mixture of arrogance and disdain.

With a commanding gesture, he raised his hand, causing waves of shimmering Soul energy to surge forth from his palm. The energy swirled and twirled, coalescing into a colossal blue orb, crackling with raw power.
