    Chapter 682 Battle Of Attrition


    Staring at Xander with disdain, Jared scoffed, “You might want to let me go, but I’m not going to allow


    you the same luxury. Today, you are going to die in this arena.”


    Just as he spoke, Jared formed the shape of a de with his fingers and drew a meter-long green


    energy arc with it.


    Swinging his hand forcefully, he sent it flying in Xander’s direction.


    As the arc shot across the arena, the trail it left on the ground ignited in mes. The sparks that flew


    looked just like exploding fireworks underneath the illumination of the sun.


    Narrowing his gaze, Xander waved his hands frantically to form an energy wall in front of him. Visible to


    the naked eye, the wall was stronger than one made of bronze or steel.


    The moment Jared’s arc mmed into the wall, the crisp sound of nging metal echoed through the


    air.

    As the arc continued to cut through the wall, sparks flew everywhere. Furthermore, it sounded as if it


    was a high-speed grinder slicing its way through a wall made of bronze.


    “Jared, it seems your strength is stillcking. Did you actually expect such a weak attack to break


    through my defenses?”


    A contemptuous look was written all over Xander’s face, for he knew that the arc would soon


    disappear. As it was also formed by energy, he was confident that it would not be able to sustain itself.


    Once the user’s energy was used up, the arc would naturally disintegrate.


    Consequently, Xander’s n was to exhaust Jared’s energy. On the contrary, Jared was delighted to


    have learned that. Although Xander was stronger than Jared in absolute terms, he did not have the


    stamina to keep up with thetter.


    Given the huge amount of spiritual energy stored in Jared’s elixir field, he would definitely beat Xander


    in a battle of attrition.


    As Jared’s arc continued to grind against Xander’s energy wall, its intensity did not waver with the


    passage of time. Instead, it gradually grew more powerful.


    Meanwhile, Xander began to break out in cold sweat as he stared at Jared in disbelief. Moreover, the


    energy wall he conjured began to turn transparent, indicating that his reservoir of energy was


    weakening.


    “Mr. Knox, why does Jared have so much energy in him? Even a Martial Arts Grandmaster like Xander


    is on the brink of faltering,” Donald asked after watching the battle for some time.


    Axton was equally baffled as to what Jared was trying to do.


    “How can this be? Isn’t Jared just a Fifth Level Grandmaster? How can he have so much energy within


    him? Can it be that he took an explosion pill before the battle?” Axton frowned curiously.


    “Mr. Knox, wouldn’t it be suicide for him to take the pill? Furthermore, its effects onlyst for ten


    minutes, and they have now fought for a much longer time than that,” Donald disagreed with Axton’s


    assessment.


    Even though the explosion pill could enhance one’s power in a short time, it came at a price. Taking it


    would damage one’s internal organs, on top of the fact that the pills’ effects wouldn’tst for long.


    “This is really strange. It appears that Jared has plenty of secrets we don’t know of.”


    Squinting his eyes at Jared, Axton looked as if he was trying to decipher all of Jared’s secrets.


    Meanwhile, Mniemented, “Mr. Deragon, it seems that Jared still has a chance to win. I guess


    you don’t have to intervene this time.”


    Rayleigh nodded. “Jared’s victory is secured. Thus, it’s time for us to go.”


    With that, Rayleigh strode out of the arena with Mnie following closely behind him.


    Back in the arena, Jared hadn’t noticed that Rayleigh had left. Instead, he was using the Focus


    Technique to enhance his arc’s explosiveness.
