Chapter 41 - Ch 41: Draw

Alex and Neon exchanged a few hundred moves but they failed to determine the victor. They were still fighting on equal footing. None of them backed down and none of them won the fight.

The people watching the fight between the two people were really shocked and kept talking while pointing at the pair of fighters on the stage.

They were mostly talking about Alex because Alex was the one who surprised them the most.

One has to know that before today, Alex was just an unknown person. Although he was slightly famous, it was not to the extent where everybody in the Outer Sect knows him.

But now, things were different.

More and more people were gathering around the arena to watch Alex and Neon's fight. At the same time, they were becoming more and more curious about Alex who was only at the Fifth Level of Enlightenment Stage and was still fighting equally against Neon who was already a Level 1 Innate Stage martial warrior.

On the other hand, Alex was surprised to see the wave of energy points gathering in his pocket. The continuous surge of energy points made his blood boil. The more energy points gathered, the more excited Alex became and the more fiercely he fought Neon.

Neon was also shocked by Alex and was giving Alex a few hundred to a few thousand energy points from time to time.

Neon could not believe that he was unable to deal with Alex who was only at the Fifth Level of Enlightenment Stage.

On the other hand, Alex knew that he had not won the fight. Although he was fighting Neon on equal footing, he knew that Neon was not giving his all.

This matter was something that only Alex knew because he was able to see Neon's attribute panel.

Neon has yet to use his special physique which was Mountain Gorilla Body. If Neon really used his special physique to fight, Alex knew that he will definitely lose this fight.

But for some reason, no matter for how long Neon fought, he never used the Mountain Gorilla Body. This made Alex puzzled.

It has to know that Neon has already awakened the special physique. It also meant that Neon was completely aware that he had a special physique that he could use when in a disadvantageous situation.

But, against Alex, he never used his special physique to fight.

Alex wanted to ask Neon the reason but he knew, it was not his place to ask.

Tens of thousands of Energy Points were already gathered. Seeing this, Alex once again tried to duplicate Neon's special physique, and this time, he finally succeeded.

[Consumed 30,000 Energy Points. Duplication Successful. Obtained Special Physique, 'Mountain Gorilla Body' (Low Grade).]

Alex was surprised to see that it took him 30,000 Energy Points to duplicate the Mountain Gorilla Body. It has to be known that Mountain Gorilla Body was only a Low Grade Special Physique.

If it was any other Low Grade treasure, it would only take 200 Energy Points to duplicate. But now, it actually took him 30,000 Energy Points.

How could Alex not be shocked? At the same time, he also felt pained in his heart for losing so many energy points in an instant.

"Fuse!"

Without wasting any time, Alex commanded the system to fuse the Mountain Gorilla Body and instantly, he felt a warm rush of energy spreading everywhere inside his body, making him have a cool sensation.

He didn't feel the slightest of pain when fusing with the Mountain Gorilla Body.

Maybe, it was because the Mountain Gorilla Body was only a Low Grade Special Physique.

Fusing with the Mountain Gorilla Body only took Alex a few seconds. Now, he felt another kind of strength rushing inside his body. If he wanted to use this strength, all he needed to do was to take control of that strength in his hand and not let it flow inside his body recklessly.

Alex wanted to try out the Mountain Gorilla Body was but refrained and did not do that.

After fighting for a few more minutes, both Alex and Neon stopped. They knew, determining a victor like this was impossible.

Maybe, Neon might have his own consideration, causing him not to use the Mountain Gorilla Body. But because Neon doesn't use his special physique, Alex also didn't use his special physique that he had duplicated from Neon and decided to use it some other time.

For now, both of them decided to end the battle with a draw.

Alex returned to the courtyard he was staying in and looked at his attribute panel. Now, his attribute panel looked more pleasing to Alex's eyes.

Now, he also has a special physique.

Although his special physique might not be as strong as Asna's or Slivya's Special Physiques and was only a Low Grade Special Physique, but in the end, it was still a Special Physique.

Alex then shifted his gaze to the Energy Points and saw more than 25,000 Energy Points there, and it was still increasing from time to time.

Alex knew that his fight against the person tenth-ranked in the outer court and Neon Belix who was Ranked Ninth must have been spread to the entire outer sect of the Floating Cloud Academy.

He can now just sit down silently and earn a few more tens of thousands of Energy Points.

When he ended his fight, he had also duplicated lots of resources from the surrounding disciples and used up all the gathered energy points. But he was still able to earn more than 25,000 energy points even before he could sit on the bed to rest after entering his courtyard.

This showed how quickly he was earning energy points.

And with the resources he had duplicated, Alex could once again cultivate and increase his cultivation by many levels.

Alex was really feeling tired after fighting Neon Belix for many rounds. He lay down on his bed and started resting.

At the same time, he thought back to what Neon told him before both of them separated and went their own ways.

"Come, meet me tomorrow outside the academy at noon!"

This was what Neon told Alex. Alex really wondered why Neon wanted to meet him tomorrow!
