Chapter 50 Break Benjamin's Other Arm

Zachary reappeared in front of Benjamin before anyone realized what was happening. Although Benjamin did not expect Zachary to be so fast, he reacted quickly and gathered his martial energy once more to attack Zachary. This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

"Go to hell!" Benjamin exclaimed and unexpectedly used a more powerful martial art this time. Five aggressive tiger shadows immediately rushed towards Zachary and threatened to overwhelm him.

But Zachary didn't dodge at all.

All disciples of the Welkin Sect shifted their eyes from the other ongoing battles and stared intently at the development of Benjamin's battle against Zachary. They were all surprised that Zachary did not even budge to avoid Benjamin's attack.

Even Lewis' face darkened as he felt his heart sink.

Elva gasped with worry.

Only Sara seemed unaffected as she watched unblinkingly at Zachary.

Zachary threw a punch that seemed weak and devoid of any martial energy or force. But his punch immediately collided with the five tiger shadows, and a huge explosion resulted from their collision. A cloud of dust filled the battle ring as the collision of martial energy threw everything away from the center of the explosion up to a distance of ten meters from Zachary and Benjamin.

A loud wailing pierced the thick cloud of dust like the sound of someone who experienced extreme pain.

There was a commotion in the spectators' area as soon as they heard the scream. They knew in their hearts that it must be Zachary screaming in pain, and knew that he was likely seriously injured.

Lewis and the stewards had the same conclusion and fear.

When the dust settled, they were all shocked as Benjamin was kneeling on the ground, his face twisted by intense pain. His last good arm lay motionless and possibly broken on his side. His reddish, tear- filled eyes stared at Zachary with disbelief, astonishment, anger and hatred.

The crowd did not expect the scene that unfolded before them. They had no idea what exactly happened inside that cloud of dust or even before that explosion. They could not understand how Zachary, who was unable to use martial energy, severely injured Benjamin in the middle of a deadly attack.

It all seemed impossible to explain. The people of Welkin Sect were extremely astonished.

"Did Zachary win?" Elva was not sure. But what she saw before her made her feel relieved.

Lewis and the other stewards stared agape at each other. Barton had a pained look on his extremely sullen face. Both of Benjamin's arms were now broken, and it was impossible for him to be a warrior again.

"I can't lose. Impossible," Benjamin exclaimed. He had the crazed look of someone who seemed to be unaware of what was happening around him.

And since Benjamin's other arm was obviously broken, the result of the match was obvious.

"Zachary won the match!" The result of the match was announced, and as expected, it caused an uproar among the audience.

The other three matches were just getting started, and yet the battle between Zachary and Benjamin was already over. It was an incredible battle that lasted a short period of time only.

Zachary turned and walked away without glancing at Benjamin.

Defeating Benjamin brought no satisfaction or contentment to Zachary because Zachary knew that Benjamin was nothing but a tool; someone else's tool. He knew that the one behind Benjamin's actions against him was Bruce.

Zachary planned to go back to his tent and go to Anne in the system once he left the training ground.

But as soon as he walked out of the training ground, a beautiful but extremely cold lady blocked his way.

"What's up, Elva?" Zachary asked. He was almost surprised that Elva was there.

"How did you defeat Benjamin? Are you hiding something from me?" Elva asked. Her inquiry was reasonable. She knew that Zachary should not have what it took to defeat Benjamin.

"No, I'm not. You're thinking too much. I'm just lucky to win. In fact, I was injured during the match. Now I have to heal myself," Zachary replied with an expression as if he was in pain.

"Are you badly hurt? Let me see," Elva said subconsciously.

"Thank you but I can handle it. Don't worry," Zachary replied. He immediately walked away without giving Elva a chance to say or ask anything else.

"He must be hiding something from me," Elva said and bit her red lips. She wouldn't be fooled so easily.

After returning to his tent, Zachary entered the system and then went straight to the Living-dead Tomb. As soon as he entered the tomb, he saw that Anne was already waiting for him, as if she knew that he would come.

"Here. Take it." Anne handed Zachary an ornate box. It was not big, about two palms in size.

Zachary knew that inside the box was the OH weapon that was personally made by Anne for him. When he opened the box, he saw a bone bracer that did not look special at all.

"Is this the OH weapon that you made for me? It looks ordinary," Zachary said, a little disappointed. He expected a weapon that looked grand and elaborate.

"The Holy Bone Bracer is made based on the God-slaying Formula that you cultivate. It is very difficult to make an OH weapon of primary stage from the material of Rare Level that you gave me, so it was more challenging than I had expected. Even though the bracer is only at Mortal Level now, it can be upgraded after you learn weapon refining skills. It can be upgraded to the Holy Level at the most," Anne explained.

"How is it used?" Zachary asked. He listened intently and nodded as he understood Anne's explanation. He knew that she would make the OH weapon that was best for him.

"MH weapons can make use of warriors' martial energy and improve martial arts' killing power. OH weapons, on the other hand, cannot make killing attacks and are only used to provide assistance. But they can store warriors' martial energy and give enemies fatal blows. And at a critical moment, this could help turn the tide of battle. It is quite easy to use the OH weapons. Warriors only need to store their martial energy in OH weapons. Once the martial energy in an OH weapon is full, one can release their ultimate skill. Your OH weapon is at the Mortal Level now. But since it is made from a material of Rare Level, it can at least release an ultimate skill equivalent to that of a warrior at the Earth Level," Anne explained.
