Resurrecting the Genius Within

Chapter 72 Dust Settle

A few minutes later, the arena fell silent, and the dust settled.

The crowd looked on in astonishment. Where dozens had been standing, now only a single girl remained. Melfrey’s clite lay in the area surrounding her. They were all clutching their arms, curling up in pain, and writhing on the ground.

Dylan stood frozen and struggled to find words.

Complete silence.

No one noticed that a man who lay on the ground was quietly pulling out a dagger. He suddenly sprang up and lunged at the girl’s back.

This man was the leader of the Hurricane Mercenary Corps.

On the second level, George’s expression changed. Before he could shout a warning, Isabelle moved as if she had eyes on the back of her head.

The Hurricane leader saw only a blur as his strike missed completely.

The next moment, the girl appeared beside him like a phantom.

Then, the dagger went missing from his hand.

No one saw how Isabelle snatched the dagger from him. They saw a flash of cold light, and blood splattered all over the floor.

She had cut his tendon!

The crowd felt a phantom pain in their own tendons.

Her speed was so incredible that the man didn’t even feel the pain immediately. After a few seconds, an agonising scream ripped through the arena, making everyone’s skin crawl.

Then she lifted her hand to wipe the blood spatter from her
