Chapter 662 Saul's Secret Skill

"Oh. I hope that your strength in combat is as strong as your talent in making promises," Zachary just responded with a smiling face upon hearing Saul's arrogant claim.

"Just wait for my attack! You don't know what I am capable of!" Saul called out with a dejected look on his face when he saw Zachary's disparaging expression. He glared at him, and his eyes emitted great killing intent, as if it could pierce through people's heart.

The next moment, Saul's aura surged and filled the air around him. In an instant, the martial energy shed an orange glow and gleamed like flowers blossoming one after another. His aura had reached the peak of the fifth grade of Imperial Level. Judging from the aura alone, the crowd knew that Saul intended to use his full strength to take down Zachary with one strike. Although this move might not be as powerful as his spiritual soul's attack, Saul felt that he could beat Zachary with his full strength. He was that confident about himself.

Everyone on the scene stared at the two fighters inside the battle ring, and they couldn't help but hold their breaths in anticipation, because they knew this battle would decide the winner for this round. But most people worried about Zachary since Saul's energy was more vigorous, while Zachary's strength was only at third grade of Imperial Level. The disparity between the two grades could not be discounted and might serve as the clincher in this fight.

"Diabolic Shadow Fist!" Saul suddenly let out a loud cry and launched an assault. His arms spread wide like the wings of a giant roc, and then he pulled his hands in front of his chest and rushed forward. His clenched fists vanished into thin air and shifted into shadows because of the high-speed maneuver. They dashed towards Zachary in succession with ferocious power.

When Saul used his Diabolic Shadow Fist, everyone screamed in alarm. It was an Imperial Level skill that the Xuanyuan Clan passed down. Though it was a medium stage skill, stories told that it was powerful, and the strength of the Diabolic Shadow Fist equaled to a premium stage skill. The most important thing was that this skill contained a set of punches, which could impair people within ten meters. So even if Zachary would try to resist the power from Saul's assault, he might not manage to remain still in one place, and if he moved, it would count as a defeat.

It looked apparent that Saul was not a stupid guy. He had grasped the weak spots of Zachary.

Seeing the series of shadow fists darting towards him, Zachary remained very calm. Even though he knew that Saul's attack was extraordinary and powerful, he didn't even blink his eyes. He only activated his protective martial energy to the extreme, and he didn't even execute his martial arts to retaliate.

Everyone in attendance was surprised to witness Zachary having no intention of fighting back or defending himself with martial arts. He just stood there, doing nothing.

"What does he pla

, burning with high intensity.

"Oh, it turns out that you cultivated the martial energy with the metal element," Zachary remarked as he raised an eyebrow upon seeing that. But he was not surprised at all. He had already anticipated that with Saul's talent and knew that the earlier attack was not yet the best and most potent strike that he could employ. He knew this next move would show Saul's real strength.

Seeing Saul's martial energy change into something different mixed with the metal element, the crowd exchanged puzzled looks with each other. Although it was expected for Saul to have obtained this latest martial energy, his effort only meant that Saul was no longer confident in destroying Zachary like he intended before. With curiosity filling their heart, everyone waited in desperation to know how great Saul could become to take Zachary down. They were also interested in Zachary's strength limit.

Saul, who had released his martial energy, raised both his arms high. The surging energy with the metal element penetrated through his upper limbs and continuously gathered on his hands, forming a blazing fireball. This ball of flames emitted strong Imperial Level aura.

After a brief moment, the fireball's great deal of energy gathered to its limit.

"I give you now my clan's secret skill!" Saul bellowed as his face turned ferocious. He flung both arms and aimed at Zachary. Then, he shouted, "Flame Wave Ball!"

The flaming ball that had condensed in his hands shot out. Afterward, it was divided into six balls. The six balls then darted side by side and catapulted towards Zachary with destructive power.

Everyone was horrified by the incident because they knew that the power of the skill at the premium stage of Imperial Level relied on the cultivator's grade. The higher one's grade was, the greater the skill's power would be. The same went for skills with a specific element. One grade above indicated that its power would be more overwhelming.
