Chapter 1781: The Battle of Height, the Electro-Superman

Xia Duo vaguely sensed a familiar tremor in the Magic Net in the sky above the center of the Jiaodouchang, and in the next moment, a rift tore open in the sky, and a dark shadow fell from within.

Looking closely, it was actually a Dwarf equipped with heavy armor similar to the previous Mage attendant, holding a shield in one hand and a hammer in the other, descending from the sky with peerless momentum and crashing heavily into the center of the Jiaodouchang, kicking up a cloud of dust.

Immediately after, the host continued the introduction, "And today, the opponent of the warrior Kunting is—the Dragon Slayer, Kaxiu!"

"Kaxiu!"

"Kaxiu!"

The latter had not yet appeared, but thunderous shouts erupted within the Jiaodouchang, which was not even half full. Xia Duo was lost in thought; generally speaking, the protagonist would appear later.

It was just that when the real Kaxiu appeared, he still couldn't help but be a little stunned. This Kaxiu was not a Dwarf, nor an Elf, but a tall giant with light blue hair!

It was not just "giant" compared to a Dwarf; even if Xia Duo stood in front of the other, he would only reach about the other's waist.

And what about that warrior Kunting of the Stone Eye Clan?

He was only about one-third the size of the giant Kaxiu, barely higher than his knees. How was he supposed to fight?

Although this giant was not fully armed like Kunting, he carried a giant axe larger than Kunting himself. If they were to fight, even if he just used his height advantage to swing the axe, it was likely something Kunting could not withstand.

According to the Jiaodouchang host's introduction, this battle was initiated by Kunting, with Kaxiu accepting the challenge. Kaxiu was a natural Warrior discovered by the Jiaodouchang in a giant tribe in the Far North Ice Sheet, and he possessed impressive elemental Magic abilities.

Before today, Kaxiu had fought a hundred battles without a single defeat, and as for the opponents he had fought, except for demons, he had basically fought every race that could be found on the Main Plane.

Judging only by the host's introduction, Xia Duo was not optimistic about Kunting's challenge, but since Xierdalanna and the people from the Seven Towers had not yet arrived, he figured watching the spectacle to pass the time would be fine.

For a true Spellcaster, no matter how powerful the opponent's physique, how brilliant their combat techniques, or how rich their experience, as long as they did not understand Magic or had obvious shortcomings, they could be classified as vulnerable.

From the spellcasting fluctuations coming from the surrounding stands just now, Xia Duo could roughly tell that there were quite a few Spellcaster spectators here, yet they still showed great admiration for Kaxiu.

Xia Duo did not believe that those Spellcasters could, like him, genuinely maintain the necessary respect for every individual with Wisdom; perhaps they were just treating it as a good show!

Of course, it was also possible that the more rational Spell Duels could not satisfy the Spellcasters' desire for excitement, and only physical combat with surging fighting intent and hot-bloodedness could make them feel novel.

In fact, in Xia Duo's hometown, there were similar situations; although more efficient lethal weapons had long appeared, people's enthusiasm for boxing and fighting had not diminished at all.

As the visible Rune Barrier lit up along the edge of the central arena of the Jiaodouchang, the two duelists of vastly different sizes in the arena also prepared themselves.

Following the host's "Begin," the giant Kaxiu charged at the opposing Dwarf warrior Kunting with his axe in both hands. Due to the giant's height advantage, the distance Kaxiu covered in one step required Kunting to take at least four or five steps.

The two sides were simply not on the same level in terms of speed!

Kunting also knew his own weakness, and entering with a shield was perhaps the wisest preparation. Soon, the two combatants met for their first collision.

Xia Duo could not help but feel some anticipation; if Kunting was knocked flying in the first collision, then there would be nothing left to watch, and it would just be a farce.

But the fact was that even if Kunting was truly a fraud, the Jiaodouchang could not risk its reputation; one had to know that this was a "member" exclusive session!

So this result was very worth looking forward to!

At this moment in the arena, Kaxiu's giant axe had already made contact with Kunting's shield. Although Kunting lacked speed, his agility was far superior to Kaxiu's.

It was just that Kaxiu's axe came with the rapid speed of his charge, and although the stance was wide and open, it left him with no room to dodge, forcing him to defend with his shield.

And at the moment the axe and shield made contact, a sharp buzzing sound erupted in the arena, even causing ripples to stir on the Rune Barrier at the edge of the field.

At the same time, the ground under Kunting's feet shook violently and sank a few inches out of thin air, but he had truly withstood it, and what followed was a counterattack—

Kunting rolled to the side with his shield, hugging the axe blade of Kaxiu, while his other hand was not idle, swinging the heavy hammer out with the momentum of the roll, smashing heavily toward the top of Kaxiu's foot.

In the Jiaodouchang, everything that could be utilized could be used, not to mention Kunting, who had just experienced a demon battle back home not long ago; naturally, he would not be like the pedantic Elves, thinking this or that was not allowed.

Kaxiu had long anticipated Kunting's counterattack. He had been in the Jiaodouchang for several years and had fought Dwarves before; except for Holy Hammer Warriors he might not be able to beat, he did not take others seriously.

Kaxiu moved his feet slightly and dragged the giant axe backward. Although it was just a small movement for Kaxiu, for a small person like Kunting, it completely blocked his path.

Afterward, Kunting tried a few more times, and in the end, he had to admit that in terms of combat techniques and combat experience alone, Kaxiu might have already surpassed him.

But the more this was the case, the more challenging it was!

"I'm going to get serious now!"

Kunting's steady voice came from within the heavy armor. He knew Kaxiu understood Dwarven Language, and without waiting for a response, a layer of crackling electric light appeared on the surface of the heavy hammer in his right hand.

Seeing this, Kaxiu's expression became somewhat solemn. He retreated a small step, adjusted his grip on the giant axe, and did not initiate an attack, instead gripping the handle tightly and waiting in full battle array.

"Kill—"

Kunting let out a roar, and the electric light on the surface of the heavy hammer began to spread along the handle and his arm to his entire body and even the shield in his other hand. At the same time, his speed increased sharply.

In the next moment, he pushed the shield, which was about the same height as him, toward Kaxiu. During the flight, electric light enveloped his entire body, looking like a large hammerhead charging forward with the shield as the vanguard.

Although this large hammerhead could be called large compared to a Dwarf or a human, it still seemed a bit petite for the giant Kaxiu, whose height was three times that of a Dwarf.

"Hah!"

Facing Kunting's active attack, Kaxiu let out a loud shout, and a mass of white mist wreathed in blue light sprayed from his mouth, heading straight toward the direction of Kunting's attack.
