Far off to the side, the crowd watched in shock. Looks of disbelief plastered across their faces as they witnessed the battle unfold.
The first fight had played out smoothly, with the young lord emerging victorious with ease despite his opponent being a relatively high C-rank being.
Basing the second fight on the first, they hadn't anticipated much of a gap in strength. But now they could see they were wrong.
Very wrong.
A single clash between the two figures wrought untold damage. The carnage stretching for tens of thousands of meters bore witness to it all.
This power was far beyond that of any C-rank being... it was too catastrophic.
Combined with the extremely dense mana in the air and the worried looks flashing across the elders' faces, it was enough to tell them everything.
Leaving only one conclusion.
The grey-robed figure was one of those elusive B-rank beings.
