Lightning Is the Only Way

After the two of them finished their conversation, Gravis charged forward.

This time, he was even far faster than before. Gravis used the fastest speed he could muster, which was far faster than anyone else in the tournament.

The eyes of the Vice-Sect Masters opened widely when they saw his speed.

Gravis had been holding back against his previous opponents!?

WHOOOM!

Gravis released his Will-Aura. On top of that, he used his Law of Major Suppression.

However, the Law of Major Suppression was different now.

During the earlier fights, Gravis had only used it with the power of a level four Law, but now, he was strengthening it with the Law of Perceived Reality. This gave Gravis' Law of Major Suppression the power of a level five Law.

The opponent was suppressed by 30%. One had to remember that he had a Will-Aura on par with a Mid Minor Circulation Immortal Emperor.

The Holy Son Candidate narrowed his eyes and took out two sabers. Apparently, that was his choice of weapon, pure offense.

WHOOOOM!

However, Gravis activated his Laws of Storm's Pressure, Storm's Power, Storm's Efficiency, and Storm's Mass to harden the surroundings.

It was becoming hard for the Holy Son Candidate to move, but his eyes didn't show panic.

WHOOOOM!

Then, Gravis used the Laws of Graphite's Gravity, Graphite's Mass, and Graphite's Efficiency.

By now, the opponent narrowed his eyes. He was taking Gravis very seriously right now.

WHOOOOM!

Then, Gravis used his Laws of Frost's Cold, Frost's Penetration, Frost's Efficiency, and Frost's Power to freeze the insides of his opponent.

With all of these suppressive forces stacked together, the Holy Son Candidate was so slow that he couldn't even block Gravis' attack anymore.

The Vice-Sect Masters looked with shock at Gravis.

So many Laws!

Gravis' saber hit the opponent's chest.

SHING! CLANK!

Gravis' saber shook violently like it had hit something incredibly hard.

BANG!

The Holy Son Candidate was shot into the wall of the arena as a cloud of dust exploded.

Gravis furrowed his brows.

Clink!

The sound of metal boots could be heard as a black, shiny foot came out of the cloud of dust.

WHOOM!

The dust cloud was blown away, and Gravis' opponent was revealed.

Black.

His entire body was encased in black armor.

Gravis narrowed his eyes, and the Sect Master smirked.

'This armor has been created with the Hard Complex Material Law. In addition, it has been made out of Low Minor Circulation Immortal Emperor Rank Materials.'

'That armor is no joke.'

"Quite impressive," the Holy Son Candidate said calmly. "If you weren't fighting a Holy Son Candidate of the All-Matter Sect, you would have already won. To think that you are two levels below me and still force me to unveil my armor is beyond impressive."

"Sadly for you, your Realm is just too low to get through this armor," he said calmly as he stopped in the middle of the arena.

Then, he lifted his arm to demonstrate his armor.

"If you were at the same level as I, you would need to unleash an attack on the level of a level six Law to get through this. This means that every Element that isn't your Avatar would be useless."
