While the throng was whispering and marveling at the young man, a tall and strong man took action. He was muscular, with tan skin and bulging shoulders and muscles. Holding a giant golden axe, he walked towards the gate. Before long, he had already reached the spot which was about one hundred meters away from the gate.
Thunderbolt fell from the sky and dashed towards him one after another.
The strong man was not frightened. Instead, he laughed out loud as he took out his axe and hacked in the air forcefully. As a result, thousands of sparks burst and formed a large piece of light screen. It successfully blocked most of the thunderbolts from reaching him.
The bolts which successfully approached the man hit him. However, they did not do any harm. The man remained intact as though he had absorbed them!
"Ha ha. These strikes of thunder and lightning are fatal to others. But not me, not at all! They are nutritious for me and I benefit off absorbing them!
I'm sure there must some precious treasures with lightning properties inside the palace.
And my strength will be enhanced greatly once I obtain them! I'm going to defeat everyone and rank the first in the ranking match of Holy Son.
Ha ha ha! Destiny is helping me! I will be the winner!"
He strode towards the gate, proudly proclaiming this.
"He is the Holy Son of the Thunder Sect from Elite Holy Kingdom!"
Someone recognized him.
'The Thunder Sect? Elite Holy Kingdom?'
Austin repeated to himself, recalling something.
He had dealt with people from the Thunder Sect when he was in the outer range of Grand Desolation Mountain.
Back then, the young master and some elders of the Thunder Sect were hunting the thunder unicorn. It was beaten heavily thanks to their fierce attack.
Austin, by accident, came across the badly injured beast. He gave his Thunder Elixir and beast soul to Austin.
That was why Austin was able to refine and manipulate the thunder and lightning, though not yet very skillfully.
The unicorn had made a request to Austin. He asked him to avenge him if there was any opportunity someday in the future.
And here was the opportunity! Austin encountered people from the Thunder Sect here! He had not anticipated this.
Austin couldn't help glancing askance at the strong man.
Now, a few warriors who were strong enough and survived the thunder and lightning had already reached the gate.
... ...
On the other hand, Austin stood at the edge of the square, observing the surroundings carefully.
He studied the palace intently and drew some conclusions.
'The treasures in the palace must have something to do with the lightning trait.
I must have them! No one will take them away from me!"
he murmured to himself as his gaze turned determined.
He took a look at the thunders and lightning which were falling from the sky and licked his lips unconsciously.
These thunders, lightning... They were powerful energies! Leaving them attacking those people would be a waste.
