The two of them faced each other. Compared to how furious Nevada was, Fane seemed incredibly calm as if everything that happened was within his control.
The caretaker walked forward and stood between the two of them. Just like before, he calmly announced the start of the gamble.
At that moment, Viktor and Dan were facing each other as well, and only a Projne Stone stood between them. They could see what the situation was on the other side with just a glance. At that moment, Dan put his full focus on Viktor.
Viktor had his eyebrows raised as he looked at Dan seriously.
Dan narrowed his eyes. "I know you're very confident. Do you use a lower ultimate god-rank technique as well?"
Viktor did not bother hiding it as he nodded. The technique he used was called Flaming Skies and was a lower ultimate god-rank technique. The fact that he was the top-ranked chosen disciple in an eighth-grade clan meant that he was more talented than any ordinary warrior.
To many warriors, ultimate god-rank techniques were far from their reach, but to geniuses like them, it was just a stepping stone.
Dan sneered and said, "So what if you know a lower ultimate god-rank technique? You think you're the only one who could do that? I use a lower ultimate god-rank technique as well, and I can even tell you that I've already gotten my Golden Meteor Technique up to the second stage!"
Viktor's confident expression stiffened when he heard this. His eyes widened slightly as he gulped, and even his breathing got a bit faster. Dan was already at the second stage of his technique…and that was something Viktor did not expect. Only those who could use lower ultimate god-rank techniques knew how difficult to master and understand ultimate god-rank techniques were.
He had gone through so many bottlenecks just to get where he was. He knew that he would be able to get to the second stage as well, but on Viktor's estimation, it would take at least one to two more years. He never expected that Dan would already be at the second stage with how young Dan was.
This explained why Dan was so arrogant; he had the skills to back his words!
Viktor's lips twitched, suddenly losing his confidence. Fane, however, remained calm when he heard all of that, as if everything Dan said was nonsense.
Nevada could clearly see Fane's expression as he stood before him. When he saw that Fane was still calm, he sneered, "What are you acting like that for? I refuse to believe you're not afraid to face such a strong opponent. Unless you're heartless, there's no way you can stay composed!"
When Fane heard that, his lips twitched in exasperation. He snorted before he said, "Well, I would be scared if I were. There's nothing to be scared of since I'm not."
Nevada quivered furiously again as he stared right at Fane. He looked at Fane and gritted his teeth, having a lot to say. In the end, he held back.
With how Fane was, Fane would have a lot to counter him no matter what he said.
He was not as good as Fane with his words, so he swallowed everything he wanted to say. He merely looked at Fane hatefully.
Fane's words were naturally heard by Dan as well. Dan frowned as he looked at Fane with annoyance.
He sneered, "Keep showing off while you can, you brat. You don't have much time left to do that, anyway. In just a moment, you'll realize that you're just a clown to us no matter how much you show off. In the future, you'll realize what the consequences of your actions today will bring you!"
