The Prince of Heaven's Gate - Last Stand At World's End

Amastan, who was paying close attention to the match, didn\'t reply. Instead, he narrowed his eyes and waited for the chubby teenager\'s next move that would decide whether he would keep his head on his body.

He could tell that his son was serious in ending the latter\'s life. As Einar\'s father, he knew that once his son had decided on something, he would not stop until he succeeded in his endeavor.

Judge Dredd, and Bruno, had raised their senses to the limit. Just like Amastan, they also understood Einar\'s intention. However, their hands were tied.

They didn\'t know if Lux was able or unable to fend off the attack. If they blocked Einar\'s attack, they would have no choice but to declare him as the winner. On the other hand, if the match was stopped in this manner, Lux might tell them that their help was unneeded, so both of them were in a pinch.

Alicia had given both of them an order to protect Lux\'s life no matter the cost. But they were unable to decide if the one they needed to protect needed their help or not.

Fortunately, before the two judges could decide, Lux made a move.

Instead of dodging, or running away, what the latter did surprised both judges.

Lux stomped his right foot forward, and also lunged at his enemy with his own claws extended.

"Dragon Claw!"

Lux\'s hands transformed into red Dragon Claws, and clashed with Einar\'s Tiger\'s Claw, creating a powerful shockwave that sent strong gusts of wind blowing away from their bodies.

With both hands firmly gripping each other, the two raised their knees and kneed their opponent at the same time.

Due to the height differences, Einar\'s blow hit Lux\'s chest, causing the chubby teenager to feel a stinging pain on his chest from the blow\'s powerful impact.

The chubby teenager, on the other hand, was shorter than the barbarian, so his knee directly hit Einar\'s balls, making the latter grunt.

(A/N: Lux hit Einar\'s Family Jewels. If you still don\'t know what the Half-Elf hit then you need to return to your anatomy lessons, my friend.)

Both repeated their attacks over and over again. The first one to break free was Einar, who jumped back and landed several meters away from Lux.

As soon as both of his feet touched the ground, he immediately crouched down. He was biting his lips so hard that blood already started to stream down his chin. Clearly, the injury he received was not something he could brush off like if it was nothing.

Lux, who was kneeling on the ground and clutching his chest, spat a mouthful of blood. Einar didn\'t hold back and delivered blow after blow of punishment to his chest, breaking two of his ribs.

If not for the fact that he had upgraded his Body Constitution and acquired the passive skill, Dragon Scales [EX], and Dragon\'s Heart [EX], he might have suffered fatal injuries and would have also been forced to surrender to his opponent.

Thanks to these two skills, Lux was able to survive the punishment that he received from Einar\'s merciless attacks that could have ended his life if it had been a few days ago.

Although Lux was not completely immune to Physical Attacks, his passive abilities allowed him to mitigate a great deal of damage, making him a decent meat shield against physical fighters like Einar.

\'Sh*t that hurts,\' Lux thought as he gritted his teeth. \'Still, I\'m sure that he is hurting more than me.\'

Lux didn\'t hold back and repeatedly kneed Einar\'s balls silly, making the Barbarian unable to sire any children if he didn\'t receive medical treatment as soon as possible.

"Bastard!" Einar shouted as he tried to stand up, but the damage he received to his family jewels prevented him from doing so. "I\'ll kill you!"

"You already tried," Lux replied with a sneer. "But you failed."

Although he could taste his blood inside his mouth, and was suffering from pain, the Half-Elf felt great because, even if Einar\'s balls weren\'t crushed after receiving his beating, it was definitely on its way to becoming a scrambled egg.

Einar\'s eyes turned bloodshot as his body grew bigger. Thick fur covered his entirety before he transformed into a giant White Tiger, with a pair of white wings behind his back.

His current form was similar to the four-meter tall flying tiger that he had seen in the Beast Tide during their defense on Whitebridge City.

The only difference was that the Flying Tiger in front of him was a White Tiger, who was known to be a Legendary Creature, and was well-known as one of the most ferocious tigers in the world.

An emblem appeared on the White Tiger\'s forehead, which was recognized by everyone as the word for "King".

This was also one of the reasons why Einar was one of the Four Kings, who stood at the peak of the prodigies in the younger generation.

"I can\'t believe it," Fiora muttered as she looked at her brother\'s Beast Form. "Brother actually used his Trump Card before the semi-finals."

Fiora knew that this was her brother\'s ultimate ability. He would only use this when he was facing a strong opponent as a last resort.

Seeing the Flying White Tiger in front of her, the young lady, who was also the Barbarian King\'s only daughter, finally understood that her brother had been backed to a corner and was left with no other choice but to go all out against a stranger that she had only seen and heard for the first time in her life.
