Chapter 927: Training and Panagea!

Although the Minotaur appeared to be gaining the upper hand in the battle, a clear red line appeared as the battle axe struck it.

Crash! Crash!

The next moment, successive crashing sounds rang in the area as the Minotaur was cleaved in two and its pieces landed on the stage.

Before internal organs and blood could sully the ground, a white light covered the entire arena while the familiar blue screen popped out again in front of Aakesh.

Aakesh chose his usual option, and then both the screen and white light disappeared.

Roar!

The Minotaur roared as soon as it came alive. The anger in its eyes couldn't be hidden. Minotaurs hated nothing more than losing, so the brutality in its eyes was on another level in this round.

However, merely being angry and actually winning the battle were two different things. As soon as the bell rang and the second battle began, the Minotaur was once again cleaved into two equal pieces from head to toe.

Time flew by, and several minutes passed in the blink of an eye.

Aakesh activated one of the skills available to him for this round of combat.

Aakesh transferred his energy to the axe, and the next moment, the area between the sharp blades began to glow red. It wasn't blood red, but fire red.

BOOM!

As the battle axe clashed with the Minotaur, a loud explosion echoed in the battle arena. When the dust subsided, there was no sign of the Minotaur left.

With it, Aakesh won the ninety-sixth round of battle. It was the first battle in which Aakesh received an injury today. The skill used by Aakesh was titled "Battle Fury."

The next moment, a white light covered the entire arena, while the familiar blue screen popped out in front of Aakesh, asking him whether he wanted to go to the next stage, repeat the same round, or go to some other already cleared stage.

Without needing to consider it, Aakesh tapped on the following stage.

Time flew by, and several more minutes passed in a flash.

Aakesh was currently battling the Minotaur in the hundredth round. He was finally getting some challenge from the Minotaur.

The Minotaur turned on its ultimate ability, "Horn Blitz," realizing there was no chance of winning this battle.

The Minotaur then began transferring energy onto its horns, which started to glow blue in the next instant. It then charged forward, with the blue light growing in intensity.

Aakesh couldn't let himself get hit with those horns. It wouldn't kill him, but it would cause severe injuries. Aakesh also activated the skill "Battle Fury."

BOOM!

A loud boom rang in the area as the axe clashed with the horns, creating a gigantic dust cloud. Aakesh had no choice but to take a step back as the air was burning.

Roar!

A roar rang through the area as the Minotaur was still alive. Its injuries were severe, but not caring about them, it charged at Aakesh one last time.

Aakesh's eyes were cold as he raised the axe in the air and then brought it down, using two-thirds of his power. 𝗳𝘳𝐞e𝙬𝙚𝚋𝗻𝚘𝚟𝗲l.𝑐𝑜ｍ

The Minotaur was split in half the next second, along with half of the arena.

Time flew by, and the bell rang, announcing the start of the 117th battle.

It was Aakesh's best with all weapons since he had stopped at the 116th round with the spear. Aakesh was best at swords, but his opponent that day was a Katanaean. It was the toughest battle Aakesh had to face that day.

Aakesh felt that his chances of winning this battle were fifty-fifty, so as soon as the bell rang, Aakesh made his move. He used 100% of his power right from the start.

The Minotaur also charged at Aakesh since it could see that its strength had surpassed Aakesh's.

Time flew by, and a few minutes passed in a flash.

Every time Aakesh and the Minotaur fought, it seemed as though the end of the world was near because both opponents exerted all of their strength.

The battle was rife with brutality, as blue blood covered Aakesh and red blood dyed the Minotaur. But still, there was no change in their movements as they clashed again and again.

Roar! Roar!

Both Aakesh and the Minotaur roared at the sky as they activated their ultimate skill at the same time.

The Minotaur's eyes turned red, and its horn grew and started to glow blood red, giving off a powerful and destructive aura. The Minotaur then charged at Aakesh. The skill was titled "Rage of Minotaurs."

Aakesh had also used "Celestial Judgement," the best skill he could use at that point in the battle.

Aakesh channeled the energy stored in the handle, causing it to emit a black, destructive aura. It looked like the end of the world as even the space around the axe began to crack in fear of the aura.

As the Minotaur approached, Aakesh waved his axe.

Clang!

A clashing sound rang in the area as the axe and the horns clashed with each other. Even sound seemed to have disappeared at that moment as the black light and blood-red light began to devour each other. The space around the clash disintegrated into nothingness.

There was complete silence as the two lights collided, as if the sound itself was anxious to occur. In the end, only half of Aakesh's body was left in the void. The entire battle arena had disappeared.

Aakesh's eyes were calm. as if his injuries didn't affect him. The next moment, a green light covered him while a white light covered the entire arena, announcing another victory for Aakesh.

***

The silence in the selection area broke down as a space crack emerged, and soon after, Aakesh stepped out of it.

Since there wasn't much time left before Lily's training ended, Aakesh requested the system for his and Lily's chairs. Aakesh then began to wait for her to come out.

Time flew by, and several hours passed in the blink of an eye.

[Host, the time set by you for Panagea has come to an end!]

As Aakesh was proceeding toward his destination, the system's emotionless voice informed Aakesh.
