Even before it was drawn, the powerful magical aura emanating from it was impossible to ignore, and Linda felt a slight tingling sensation on her skin.
Very competitive.
Linda and the other two said in unison.
None of them were confident they could defeat Ebernarus alone.
Linda thought to herself, "No wonder he's a near-five-star character among NPCs. If it had been Abner who went to fight the cultists that day, even if Halus had drunk three more potions, he probably would have been beheaded with a single blow."
Abner, level 39, the limit of star rank.
The katana at his waist is called [Azure Core], a level 30, epic five-star main weapon.
In comparison, Linda's equipment is decent, and Isa's is also good; even if they fall behind, they won't fall too far behind. The problem lies with Lia.
The sparring was a performance-style event, and adventurers were prohibited from using their ultimate moves, which rendered Leah's innate skill, [Flame Burst], useless.
Secondly, Leah's equipment is really terrible.
Xueyan is too poor; she has never gotten any high-quality equipment from monsters and can't accumulate any wealth.
Aside from her main weapon being a level 30 orange weapon, almost everything else about Leah is purple gear.
While he was thinking, the host, Kami, jumped onto the magic hot air balloon, clearing out the arena.
Linda and the other two were positioned on the left side of the fighting arena.
Ebernar is positioned on the right, with his eyes closed and his right hand on the hilt of his sword, assuming the stance for an iaido slash.
The auditorium, large enough to hold 10,000 people, was completely silent, with every pair of eyes fixed on the stage.
Will the three rising stars of White Dove City become the new ceiling, or will they suffer heavy losses and earn Alberta the title of "Invincible Below the Moon"? The answer will be revealed soon.
In the middle row of the audience, a middle-aged man with a stubble beard and wearing a detective hat was drunkenly hiccuping.
He had a curvaceous, overweight woman with a pig-like head, wearing only a black bikini, in his arms. The middle-aged man, a smile of interest on his face, pulled out a notebook from his pocket, preparing to write his assessment of the match.
"That brat Bai Luo is definitely a bad judge of character. What genius adventurer? Let me, Luden, expose them!"
Luden, one of the field reporters for the Adventurers' Weekly.
I've met countless geniuses in my life, but I like Pig Girl the most and hate self-righteous brats the most.
What Bai Luo praised, Lu Deng would look down upon. These commoners of White Dove City shouldn't even dream of getting a chance to be featured in the Adventurers' Weekly from him!
Of course, Luden has a certain level of professionalism.
If the four people in front of him are at a level where he is "not sure if he can go or not" or "barely able to go", he will naturally choose not to go.
They have professional qualities, but not many.
The host, Camille, tore open the magic scroll and fired a red signal flare.
The competition has officially begun!
In an instant, everyone heard a "whoosh" sound.
The makeshift arena was riddled with cracks centered on Abner's feet.
That's a fighting arena built with earth-type slime and a special magic circle, its toughness enough to withstand destruction by Moon-rank adventurers.
Although strictly speaking, there are only a few cracks on the arena, the number of these cracks is simply too many.
Luden's drunken state disappeared.
His eyes revealed a sharp glint.
It seems that this Ebernay was underestimated.
Compared to the last time he was featured in the Adventurers' Weekly after defeating the Earth Dragon, the Abner that appeared before Luden was a completely new monster!
...
Linda felt a buzzing sensation under her feet as a wave of air rushed towards her.
Abner's figure transformed into a blue lightning bolt, passing between Isalia and the other person.
Before they could even react, their long red and silver hair was whipped up by the storm created by Abner's running.
A chilling blade flashed toward Linda's throat—Abner's target was none other than Linda, whose life barrier was the thickest!
This is slightly different from the battle plan; Linda had thought that Issa would be the first target.
Under the overwhelming pressure, Linda's heart pounded like a drum. She gripped the Earth Dragon Longsword with both hands and held it horizontally in front of her.
clang!
Abner's katana struck his blade, and a tremendous force traveled along the Earth Dragon Longsword throughout his body.
Linda felt a tightness in her chest, and her legs involuntarily retreated, as if she had been hit by a dragon-drawn carriage.
The thick-soled brown tactical boots slid straight down the ground, leaving a dark rubber trail.
Linda felt a chill run down her spine, and her eyes grew even more wary.
As expected of an adventurer hailed as "invincible below the Moon Ranks".
With that kind of speed and power, in a one-on-one fight, he wouldn't have time to chant the Azure Shield spell. Abner is no opponent he can defeat alone!
A gasp erupted from the audience.
No one could see what happened; all they knew was that Abner struck out with his sword, and Linda retreated seven or eight meters, her face extremely grave.
Fry, sitting in the front row, took out a handkerchief and wiped the cold sweat from his brow: "Luckily, I didn't cause trouble for the White Dove Adventurer Group during last month's level 15 Greater Rift..."
Frye and Zilina, among others, are all Iron-level captains, but even among those of the same rank, there are differences in skill. Clearly, they are far inferior to Abner.
With such explosive power and speed, even [Battle Maniac] Rochelle showed a look of great interest.
Rochelle laughed and said, "Give this Eberner ten years, and he'll become my new toy!"
At this moment, the square formation composed of female adventurers stood up and cheered:
"Lord Ebernar is the best~"
The White Dove Adventure Team is invincible!
Let them taste the power of Lord Ebernar's longsword (heart shape)~"
"Hiss, we, the Phoenix Flower Fan Club, can't be outdone!"
