Just when one fighter seemed to gain the upper hand, the tides would shift in a breathtaking reversal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, Greg found himself ensnared — trapped within an earth mound, his legs bound tightly by hardened soil. He appeared immobilized… until he wasn't.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a furious surge of power, Greg shattered the mound in a blinding flash of lightning, dust erupting around him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Impossible!' Dante's thoughts raced as his construct lunged forward. 'No lightning mage should be able to break free of that! Earth counters lightning! So how... how did he—?'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ground trembled with each heavy step of Dante's massive earth golem charging at Greg.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Greg stood unfazed. With a mere glance and a wave of his hand, a bolt of lightning thundered from the sky, obliterating the construct in a flash of brilliant white light. The golem collapsed into a heap of dirt and rubble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Now,\" Greg said, his voice cold and laced with menace, white eyes crackling with lightning, \"I dare you to repeat what you said earlier.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You've just broken through…\" Dante growled, his voice low but resolute. \"Then it's only fair I do the same.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Greg scoffed. \"Tsk. Like that'll scare me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a blink, he vanished, lightning surging beneath his feet, propelling him forward like a bolt from the heavens.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, you should be scared,\" Dante muttered, slamming his foot down. The ground responded with a violent upheaval — a massive pillar erupted beneath Greg's path.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Greg zigzagged through the arena, but the earth pillar pursued, twisting midair like a serpent. Before he could react, it curled and slammed into his face with brutal force, sending him crashing down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment he hit the ground, another spike of earth launched upward, smashing into his back and hurling him across the arena in a spray of blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Above him, a massive boulder materialized — its shadow falling over him like a death sentence. Greg's eyes widened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Damn!\" he growled. In a split-second motion, he spun, his foot crashing into the boulder and shattering it into pebbles. Then—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He streaked forward like a lightning-struck ghost and, in less than a second, delivered a raw bolt of lightning directly into Dante's chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dante flew backward, tumbling across the earth as the impact sent tremors through the arena.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shit… kuk!\" Dante coughed violently, blood and dirt spilling from his lips. Pain radiated through his limbs, paralyzing him temporarily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'That damned stun effect… it's the worst thing about lightning mages!' Dante winced as Greg stalked toward him, electricity wrapping around his fists like coiled serpents.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Greg's body blurred again with a sonic crack, but just before impact, an earth wall surged up, absorbing his lightning strike.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A pillar followed, erupting beneath him, but Greg twisted and leapt backward, blood trailing from his lips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Impressive,\" Dante said, standing tall. A scratch marred his cheek as he wiped it clean. \"Lightning naturally alters the body—makes you faster. Add control over lightning movement, and your speed becomes insane.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Greg didn't reply, but the sparks around him intensified.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But now that you've broken through, your speed is legendary. Tracking your movement is nearly impossible.\" As Dante spoke, the ground quaked beneath him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Stone enveloped his limbs, torso, arms — an earthen armor that molded perfectly to his form. It wasn't bulky like traditional golems; it was sleek, a second skin of stone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He smirked. \"Let's see whose strength reigns supreme!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a burst of power, Dante charged forward, propelled by earth magic, matching Greg's earlier speed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You're on!\" Greg answered, vanishing into a blur of light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They met at the center of the arena. Dante's earth-clad fist collided with Greg's crackling knuckles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The collision unleashed a delayed shockwave that rippled across the coliseum. The ground fractured in every direction, debris lifting into the air from the sheer force.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Woah! How the hell is the earth mage that fast?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Exactly! He wasn't like that before!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Tsk. They don't know he's manipulating earth beneath his feet to propel himself faster,' Grey observed silently from the stands, arms folded, eyes sharp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Too slow!\" Greg barked as he blurred in every direction — front, back, sides — cracking the arena floor and leaving blurs and afterimages behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He reappeared behind Dante, conjuring a lightning spear and hurling it at breakneck speed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Dante didn't flinch. \"More like you're the slowpoke.\" An earth wall shot up just in time. The spear crashed into it, shaking the ground violently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Screw you!\" Greg snarled. Leaping back, fifty lightning arrows spiraled around him, forming a glowing constellation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a snap of his fingers, they launched.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dante raised another wall, which shattered under impact, but it gave him just enough time to dodge. The ground cracked and smoked behind him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Earth Magic: Scythes of Death!\" Dante roared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fifty jagged scythes of rock exploded toward Greg.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lightning Creation Magic: Lightning Serpent!\" Greg responded. A radiant serpent of electricity appeared, its eyes glowing bright, fangs bared. It opened its maw, unleashing a tidal wave of lightning at the scythes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two attacks collided with cataclysmic force. The arena trembled. Lightning danced across the sky while scorched chunks of earth rained down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How are you this strong?!\" Dante demanded, panting, eyes narrowed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Greg's serpent launched a barrage of bolts, which Dante barely dodged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You want to know why?\" Greg growled, lightning flaring violently. \"Because I push past my limits every single day! And today is no different!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He slammed his foot down. The ground beneath him cracked violently, forming a crater.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, with speed akin to light itself, Greg pounced. He struck Dante with a bolt so pure and powerful that the older student flew like a ragdoll, skidding and crashing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Greg could celebrate, another pillar slammed into his jaw, flipping him backward and sending him skidding across the dirt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both fighters lay still momentarily. Blood streamed down Greg's face, painting half of it crimson. Yet he gritted his teeth and stood, swaying but defiant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dante, protected slightly by his armor, also stood, bloodied but breathing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you realize I'm number two among the third years?!\" Dante yelled, the earth shaking beneath him. \"How dare you try to injure me?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh yeah?!\" Greg snapped. His lightning serpent coiled around Dante's arm and dragged him through the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'This will drain everything... but I don't care!' Greg roared in his mind. His arm trembled as he summoned an overwhelming surge of lightning, pain wracking his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dante struggled as the serpent shocked and dragged him rapidly toward Greg.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'm also…\" Greg grunted, eyes glowing, \"I'm also number two of the second year students!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He thrust his electrified fist forward just as Dante reached him. Their collision unleashed a shockwave so powerful, it formed a crater like a miniature well beneath their feet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dante's armor shattered as his body launched backward, blood spraying from his mouth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crack!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shatter!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His body smashed into the protective earth surrounding his team's crystal — and shattered it on impact. The fragments rained down as his body hit the floor, unmoving.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Greg, his lightning aura dissipating, collapsed next. The serpent vanished in a final flicker. He hit the ground with a hard thud, unconscious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a long moment, silence reigned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Impossible… This is so unbelievable…\" Captain Amir finally said, his voice echoing in the stunned silence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's a draw between the two teams!\" he declared. \"Charlotte destroyed the second-years' crystal at the same time Dante's body crushed the third-years'!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A stunned murmur swept across the crowd. The clash had ended — not with victory, but with equal devastation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>___\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>{A\u002FN}\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alright, there we have it guys! The battle between the team A's has just ended🥱\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On to the next thing. Please drop your thoughts on this tournament so far.\u003C\u002Fp>",1351,"2026-06-05T15:21:23.698Z",1,"novelbin.me","256718a42daf0e3a524888635e22ccef01d06f7d156fc7a3f2c6fc15ffec8c30","magus-supremacy-chapter-304","magus-supremacy-chapter-302",1068,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fmagus-supremacy-cover.jpg"]
