Chapter 286 Mother Vs Daughter

After the end of the quarter-finals, the semi-finals were soon to start. Of course, it was supposed to be held the next day, however, since the previous battles ended too early, there was more than enough time to conduct the rest of the matches.

Surely enough, all the battles till now were thrilling. Though there were some expected outcomes, there were some cases where the match went out of hand too.

Regardless, four clans qualified for the semi-finals: White Wolf Warriors, Lou Shin, Heavenly Monkeys, and Fang.

Lou Shin clan was matched up against White wolf warriors and Heavenly Monkeys had to battle Fang Clan.

The audience couldn't wait for the semi-finals to begin. Everyone was impatient and couldn't wait for the 1-hour break to be over.

Soon enough, the break was over and everyone returned to their seats. There were many who didn't even leave their seats, in anticipation of the matches. But there were many, that went and bet upon the teams.

The first match was between the White wolf warriors and Lou Shin Clan.

As soon as Reosan announced, all those who had yet to arrive at the stadium and take their seats, rushed with all their might, causing a lot of uproars.

By no means could they miss this match.

Both the clan entered the arena due to which anxiety in the audience increased.

"It's been long, Siara...", Shin looked at Siara as he asked this using his telepathy.

He then walked close to her before any further announcement was made.

The members of Shin's clan, especially Aella, all stood behind him. Aella was the most excited one to meet her mother, but she had to stay behind when Shin mentioned about exchanging a few words with Siara.

They hadn't got the chance to meet earlier.

"Yes, master Shin…", she said as she bowed her head a bit.

Her eyes still seemed dead, even after meeting Shin. Well, she wasn't even surprised when she saw Shin.

That was because Shin was just too famous and she had been hearing his name from time to time. She knew that he was alive.

"I should have surrendered as soon as I heard about you…"

"But forgive me, master Shin, I have my reasons to not lose…", she said with a hint of sadness and rage in her voice.

They didn't exchange any more words after this.

The white wolf warrior clan, specifically, Siara was asked to come forward and pick a slab. Their clan was weaker in strength and ranking.

She walked forward and lifted a slab - blue light emerged from it.

So, one member from Shin's clan had to fight against all the members of Siara's clan.

Well, they had already decided whom to send first. Considering the fact that Siara was present in the other clan, Aella couldn't help but beg to let her go.

Of course, this time, Shin couldn't deny her.

He had already completed the mission but hadn't claimed any rewards, so it was fine if he didn't go. Since Aella requested a lot, he decided that she would the one to start the battle.

Aella walked up to the podium, standing in front of all the members of the White wolf warriors clan. She didn't speak a word to her and just wanted to show how much she improved in the last year.

Of course, she missed her mom, but she would always get a chance to talk to her after the battle was over.

"Let the battle…"

"BEGIN!"

Reosan announced loudly moments later, all the white wolf warriors started attacking with their respective skills.

The majority of them were wind types, but some were of ice types too.

Some shot ice shards at Aella while others used wind blades - the attacks were deadly and Siara didn't want Aella to die, but she knew it better, that Aella didn't seem like the small pup she knew back then.

'If she remained with master Shin all this time, then by no means would she be weak…', she had concluded this much earlier, even before the match had begun.

Aella used her skill [wind run] and started dodging the attacks launched by the white wolves.

She sprinted towards one of the wolves and attacked her using [Aero slash] but she underestimated their teamwork as three wolves quickly used their skills, destroying [Aero slash].

Their wind blades were insanely strong. While they were indeed weaker than Aella in terms of levels and skills, if they combined their attacks, they could easily defend or cancel out her attacks.

When the three wolves used wind blades simultaneously to cancel out Aero Slash, only two wind blades vanished along with Aella's attack.

There was still another wind blade from the third wolf which paved its way toward Aella.

Needless to say, she dodged the attack with the help of Wind Run.

However, when Siara used the next skill - [Wind Blast] - Aella failed to dodge it.

It was because her attention was diverted as she tried dodging the third wind blade.

A sphere of circulating heavy winds hit her abdomen, almost throwing her out of the podium.

It was clear that the Clan White Wolf Warriors had an upper hand by now.

Aella used [Huricanne] and finally managed to break their formation while also managing to injure some wolves but it seemed that luck wasn't with her as the wolves quickly took another formation.

The battle continued with Aella sometimes being able to break their formation but they would create another formation almost instantly and position themselves.

Their teamwork was flawless, even Shin could see that.

The Celestials sitting in their meeting hall and watching this battle also made them a bit impressed.

Regardless Siara used [Sonic claw] to attack Aella who defended herself by using [Aero slash]. Both the skills clashed causing shockwaves.

Siara used [Aero slash] continuously which Aella was barely able to dodge.

Many deep cut marks appeared on her body due to those continuous attacks.

[Wind Blast]
