Getting into the arena, Paragon fearlessly faced Zar.
At the start of the fight, Zar quickly attacked, intending to take him down swiftly.
However, seeing through the assault, Paragon slightly dodged, countering with a punch to Zar's face.
Bang!
"You've already used this move before. Don't underestimate ," Paragon said coldly.
"Oh?"
Not believing Paragon's words, Zar repeated his attack.
Yet, what greeted him was a sharp kick to the stomach, sending him flying.
Cough~ Cough~
"Is this all you're capable of? A brute who only knows how to punch and kick?"
Watching Zar closely, Paragon analyzed every move—his patterns, skills, and habits—integrating them all into his mind.
To Paragon, repeating the sa tactics was no different than fighting a losing battle.
"Hehe, you're powerful!"
Despite being struck twice, Zar felt his blood boil with excitent.
Yet, ignoring Paragon's taunt, he charged forward again, using his fists and feet to attack.
"It's useless," Paragon muttered.
No matter how fast or powerful Zar's moves were, to Paragon, they were aningless.
He countered each strike with precision.
Beating Zar down, the once-suppressed Dinsional Alliance finally felt vindicated, cheering with all their might.
Zar, unable to land a single hit, continued to smile as he fought.
As his body grew bloodied and battered, the grin on his face only grew wider and brighter.
Noticing sothing amiss, Paragon's expression turned solemn.
Instead of weakening, Zar seed to be growing stronger.
Ten tis amplitude, a hundred tis amplitude, a thousand tis amplitude…
Even though Paragon knew Zar's moves like the back of his hand, his body couldn't react in ti.
Finally, as Zar reached seven thousand tis the amplitude of his power, Paragon could do nothing but block.
Sent flying, his arms felt like they might fall off.
"Hahaha, good! You didn't die!" Zar exclaid with excitent.
Forcing Paragon to take the attack head-on yet only dislocating his arm, Zar proudly acknowledged him as the strongest opponent he had faced within the sa realm.
"You're not bad either,"
Recognizing Zar's ability to grow stronger mid-battle, Paragon's mind began another round of calculations.
However, Zar gave him no ti to strategize. Without pause, he continued his relentless assault.
With no imdiate counter to Zar's power, Paragon could only dodge and block to stay alive.
As Paragon was battered across the arena, the Devourer Faction began to cheer wildly.
"Kill him!"
"What No. 1 talent? Just rubbish!"
anwhile, Zar's strength continued to skyrocket, reaching over ten thousand tis the amplitude.
But in that mont, Paragon finally found a counter to his overwhelming strength.
Bang!
With a fist connecting squarely with Zar's face, the tide of battle turned.
"Now, let see if you still have another skill in your arsenal…"
"Arrogant brat!" Zar sneered.
Not believing Paragon could truly counter his power, Zar charged once again.
Yet, what awaited him was the sa humiliating scene from earlier—being beaten back yet unable to land a single hit.
"How did you do it?"
"The ability to see the future... and the power to instantly match yours."
Paragon's ability, Boundless, not only deduced the path to victory but gave him the ans to achieve it.
"I want you to grow even stronger!" Hungry to test his limits, Paragon smirked.
"Not bad. It seems I'll need to take this seriously."
However, Zar had no tricks or elaborate techniques—only raw, unrelenting power.
He didn't believe in superfluous skills, abilities, or clever strategies.
To him, if he couldn't defeat his opponent, it simply ant his power wasn't enough.
Taking blow after blow because of this principle, his strength continued to grow.
From ten thousand amplitude to twenty thousand, then thirty, forty, fifty thousand, and finally sixty thousand…
Soon, although it was Zar who was being beaten and bloodied, it was Paragon who began to weaken.
Struggling to maintain the sa power, Paragon's body started to crack under the strain.
anwhile, Zar continued to grow stronger.
Reaching over a hundred thousand tis amplitude, Paragon could no longer keep up.
As Zar's fist hurtled toward him, Paragon finally unleashed his ultimate treasure.
Boom!
The impact sent him flying, leaving a massive crack in the ground.
Seeing Paragon defeated, the crowd erupted in disbelief.
"Paragon is defeated?"
"This—"
"Hahaha! What a so-called Number 1 talent! Before the Devourer, it's just a false reputation!"
Zar, standing victorious, looked unsatisfied.
"Stand up! Our fight isn't finished!" he roared.
Paragon, battered and pushed to the brink, stood with a wry smile.
"I lost. I'm inferior to you," he admitted.
Paragon knew that Zar's limitless power amplification made him unbeatable through normal ans.
To have any chance, Paragon would have to exhaust all his abilities, treasures, and trump cards.
But this was only a sparring match. Paragon was unwilling to go to such extres.
"Tsk, what a coward. The Dinsional Alliance is truly full of cowards!" Zar shouted in anger.
Just when Zar was on the verge of reaching the peak, his opponent surrendered.
How could he not feel furious?
Seeing that Paragon still held sothing back, Zar's frustration grew.
But this wasn't his territory, and he couldn't act recklessly.
anwhile, the crowd from the Dinsional Alliance bowed in humiliation.
Under Paragon's defeat, their pride seed to shatter.
At this mont, the Virtual Tower suddenly began to glow, signaling that another trialist was erging.
"Who is it this ti…?"
Soon, a man strolled out lazily, his relaxed deanor catching the crowd's attention.
When they recognized him, a ripple of excitent spread.
"Maximus Shadowcrest!"
"The Supre Primordial Candidate is out!"
Continue your adventure with m|v-l'e -
For a mont, the crowd was reminded that Paragon was no longer the Number 1 talent of the Dinsional Alliance. That title now belonged to Maximus.
Yet, due to their ingrained biases and habits of thought, many had forgotten about Maximus until now.
As hope rekindled, the crowd eagerly turned their eyes to him.
"What happened?"
Sensing the intense aura lingering in the arena and the feverish looks of the crowd, Maximus felt puzzled.
Before he could seek out his family, the crowd stared at him with desperate hope, their eyes alight as though salvation had arrived.
"You," Zar said, stepping forward, looking at him with interest.
"Do you want to fight?"
Sensing the latent power hidden in Maximus, Zar's excitent reignited.
"Not interested," Maximus replied bluntly.
Having just erged from the grueling trial, all he wanted was to rest and reunite with his family.
Right now, fighting an unknown opponent was the last thing on his mind.
