The Evolution of a Goblin to the Peak
chapter-442

Bryan's words not only shocked his teammates but also shocked the person who wanted to challenge their team.

"You!!"

The man who wanted to challenge was angry at his words. It feels like Bryan was underestimating him and he was not worth fighting at all.

"I don't want to fight him. He's too weak." Bryan said to his team leader while pointing at the man.

His team leader didn't know what to say. Should he let Bryan fight this man or not? He turned his head to his members and saw their expressions.

After a while, he opened his mouth and said to Bryan, "Bryan, just fight this man. Since he challenged us, we couldn't do anything about it. We're from the defense team, not the offense team."

"...fine..." Bryan nodded with a sigh as he looked at the man. "Okay, we'll start right away. Just attack me whenever you want."

This gathered the attention of the people around them. Even some of the third-year students paid attention to this little match. After all, they wanted to know how strong the people that the princess brought in this academy were.

In the third-year section, Alea was sitting elegantly while looking at Bryan and his opponent.

The woman beside her said, "Who do you think will win, princess?"

"Of course, it's Bryan," Alea replied to her without hesitation.

"That easy?" The woman raised her eyebrows as she glanced at Alea's expression.

"Even I don't know how powerful Bryan is," Alea said as a smile formed on her face.

"Hmm... Interesting." The woman cast a deep glance at Alea before turning to look at Bryan.

This woman was a beautiful elf with long blonde hair and blue eyes. Her body exuded seductive beauty that will even turn the woman's head if she walked in the public.

She was a daughter of a great noble family in the empire. Her family wasn't to be underestimated as it was one of the ten great families in the Eternal Empire. Her name was Amiel Le Giniver.

"Bryan is someone you shouldn't underestimate. The things that he experienced are far worse than what we experience in this country." Alea said to her.

Amiel looked at Alea and the two of them heard a voice behind them.

"I know that man. He's Bryan Dagruel a famed student from the Ladro Institute and he is also one of the core members of the Dark Oculus Legion."

Alea and Amiel turned around and they saw a handsome man with short wavy green hair. He was also a member of one of the ten great families of the Eternal Empire. His name was Erwyn Fringen.

Erwyn smiled and continued, "The Dark Oculus Legion is an adventurer organization that was built by students of the Ladro Institute. Their core members have extreme potential that gathered the attention of the higher-ups of the institute. In the past, they subjugated different third evolution monsters and fought against the nobles that wanted to take their treasures. They even fought the officers from the Seven Deadly Sins. Also, they managed to survive the calamity that hit their city which wiped out more than ninety percent of the population of the entire city. Their achievements in battle are greater than what most of the people accomplished in their lifetimes."

"It seems that you did some research," Alea said to Erwyn.

Erwyn smiled and said, "It's nothing. The Dark Oculus Legion's fame exceeded your imagination. I don't need to investigate their background as it was all over the news. I even know that girl called Lynn have God's Eye that only the Pope of the True God's Holy Kingdom has."

"Why I don't know about it?" Amiel asked.

"It's simple. You aren't reading any news, right? You should read the news from time to time. You would find interesting things there and also know what's happening in our world." Erwyn said to Amiel.

"Okay, then what about the leader of the Dark Oculus," Amiel asked with a curious expression. From what she heard, the commander of the Dark Oculus legion wasn't among the three people that Alea brought.

"That man is called Souta Ieshi. He is the most terrifying and dangerous man among all. From my understanding of what I heard, he is different from the rest. He is the man who fought a noble head and defeated him. He is also the man who held the seven-circle officers in the Ibish village before the reinforcement arrived. His power level is very controversial. The event in the Blue Lawless City piqued the attention of the True God's Holy Kingdom. They are more curious about him than the girl who managed to awaken the God's Eye." Erwyn explained.

Alea interrupted them by saying, "The match it's starting."

The two turned their heads and focused their attention on the match.

...

Bryan's opponent was an elf. An elf who was famous for his sword skill. His strength was above average and he defeated various strong peers in the past.

"I'll show you why you shouldn't underestimate me."

The elf said as he slowly pulled out his sword and pointed it at Bryan.

"Whatever, just come at me."

Bryan looked lazy as he waved his hand. He wasn't underestimating his foe this time. In fact, he would be thrilled if this elf could give him a better and harder fight but his power level has grown too much by receiving Bargan's personal training for a whole month.

From his view, he could easily saw the mana level of this elf. The only thing that he couldn't see was this elf's brute strength.

The elf narrowed his eyes and his mana burst out of his body like a raging tide.

[Sword Art: Thundering Strike]!!

His sword move like a bolt of lightning as it emitted a bright blue light and hundreds of light blades formed above him which rained down at Bryan.

It was a high-grade sword skill and the power it contained was enormous.

"Hoo..."

Bryan exhaled and he gently moved his hand. He opened his palm and caught dozens of light blades that come after him. He didn't need to catch all of them as he knew that the rest of the light blades were only here to block his escape route. But he didn't plan on avoiding these light blades at all. His body was already strong enough to catch it with his hand.

"This is...!!"

The elf was stunned when he saw this scene. He couldn't believe that this man just caught his light blades bare-handed.

Swoosh!

Bryan then appeared in front of him and touch his nose. "Accept defeat, you can't fight me with your current strength." He said.

The elf didn't know how Bryan appeared in front of him. He was just too shocked to understand what just happened.

When he felt Bryan's finger on his nose, he came back to his senses.

"I... I admit defeat..."

He said while stuttering. Bryan was just too strong for him and Bryan wasn't even using a single skill at this moment yet he used one of his powerful skills.

This simple match gathered everyone's attention and they were interested in Bryan's strength. They wanted to pry and understand just how powerful this man is.

A noble elf looked at Bryan as he narrowed his eyes. He opened his mouth and said to his teammates, "This man looks capable. Go and try him."

The noble elf was from the sword department. The elf that Bryan just defeated was his team member.

A two-meter tall elf walked towards Bryan and said, "Let me try your strength."

"Oh,"

Bryan looked at this elf. This elf was different from a normal elf as this one was much taller and muscular. He wouldn't even know it if not for the pointed ears.

"Okay, sure. You're stronger than the last but I think that it's not enough."

He said as a faint smile formed on his face. This was his second battle so he only had a remaining three defend and after that, he wouldn't be able to fight.

When the battle started, the tall elf quickly pulled out a large sword and just watched Bryan's movement.

The tall elf slowly walked around while watching Bryan. Bryan was just standing there but he could feel danger coming out of him. His guard was low so how could he emit such pressure.

Sweat formed on the forehead of the tall elf. He didn't know why but his heart was beating wildly like it was trying to get out of his chest.

"There's no need to hesitate!"

The tall elf shouted as his mana exploded and turned into a powerful wind current that spun around his large sword. The wind currents were like a sharp sword that caused several cuts on the floor.

[Turning The Wind Blade]!!

He then thrust it forward and the wind currents on his sword burst. It turned into a tornado that flew at his opponent.

"Not enough."

Bryan walked towards the tornado and slapped it suddenly.

His entire arm seemed to disappear in an instant as it was engulfed within the tornado.

Boom!

A loud sound echoed in the next moment and everything seemed to disappear. All traces of the tornado has disappeared, the tall elf was gone too leaving behind a huge crater on the ground.

Alea, Amiel, and Erwyn stood up when they saw this. They were shocked as they focused their attention on Bryan's hand.

On Bryan's hand, a blue energy that was visible to naked eyes was seeping out like a water forming around his fist.

"This...?! A liquefied mana!! An A-rank expert!!"
