Chapter 223: Battle for the Number One (9)
"Sorry, but if you want to harm this arm, it takes more than that to destroy it" George's voice came out from the Golem.
When this was heard, the crowd cheered on, the earth Originat was known to be the mother of the world and the greatest defense and this was what George was really exhibiting.
The Earth Golem moved once again, this time at a much faster speed than before. It punched forward just like before.
The Elven Girl, seeing this, quickly deployed the Earth Shields she had used earlier, but this time, they were far more numerous than before.
However, something shocked her—her shields were pierced through like paper by the Golem's fist. She swiftly retreated to avoid the attack.
As she moved back, the fist followed her relentlessly, as if a missile had locked onto its target. She deployed even more Earth Shields, but no matter how strong they were, they were easily broken through.
She then noticed something unusual—each time the Golem's fist struck her Earth Shield, its strength and aura intensified.
Seeing this, she paused for a moment, both surprised and intrigued, but this brief hesitation gave the Golem's fist an opportunity to land a direct hit.
Her entire body was sent crashing into the ground, causing the crowd to fall silent.
They looked at George in astonishment. It turned out the strength he had displayed in his battle with Oscar was just a fraction of his true power.
"Don't underestimate me—show me your full strength!" George's voice roared from the Giant Earth Golem.
The Elven Girl's figure reappeared in the sky, hovering above the Earth Golem. "I must admit, I'm quite intrigued by your skill."
For many in the crowd, this was the first time hearing the Elven Girl speak. What surprised them even more was that her voice sounded cute and childlike, making even Draco let out a soft chuckle.
"That arm of yours has the ability to absorb the Earth Originat from my shields, rendering them useless," she stated.
Her words left the crowd stunned.
This kind of power was incredibly strong—it meant that if George fought against Earth Originat users, they would stand no chance. Their skills and attacks would be ineffective, as he could simply absorb the Earth Originat in them upon impact.
"But this makes me wonder—is this a skill, or is it an innate ability of yours?" The Elven Girl had a curious expression as she gazed at the Earth Golem.
George remained silent, offering no response.
Suddenly, he threw a powerful punch toward the Elven Girl in the sky.
"Hmph." The Elven Girl let out a soft snort.
George, watching his massive fist rocket forward, was surprised when he realized that it wasn't reaching her.
Confused, he glanced around and was even more shocked—the Earth Golem was wrapped tightly in thick plant stems.
George snorted, attempting to forcefully break free by moving the Golem's body, trying to snap the plants that bound him.
However, every time he snapped one, the plant regrew instantly, tightening around him again.
He could feel it—the plants were absorbing the nutrients from the Golem's body.
It was a well-known fact that plants germinate from the earth, absorbing its minerals and nutrients, which are essential for their growth.
Before he could fully process what was happening, the plants had completely covered the entire Golem, leaving George trapped.
The Arcane Academy students erupted in cheers.
Earlier, they had felt uncertain when the Elven Girl was being suppressed, but now, their confidence had returned.
No one knew much about the Elven Girl's background, only that the Dean himself had brought her to the academy and placed great importance on her.
She had also earned their respect through her strength, securing a spot to represent Arcane Academy in the contest.
But the true extent of her power remained a mystery.
Seeing the strength that Draco and the others had displayed, they were beginning to feel even more uncertain.
All eyes were now fixed on the Earth Golem, completely entangled by the plant stems.
BOOM!
A massive explosion echoed as the stems were obliterated, and a spinning boulder shot out, rotating rapidly like an armadillo curling into a ball.
The entire crowd was shocked by the explosion, their eyes locked on the spinning boulder as it gradually came to a stop.
Then, hands, legs, and a head emerged from the boulder, reforming the Golem back into its original shape.
"Well, that was surprising," George's voice echoed from within the Golem.
The Elven Girl chuckled at this and sent more tree stems and branches to restrain the Golem once again.
However, the Golem's hands, legs, and head withdrew, and it began spinning rapidly, slicing through the tree plants as it charged toward the Elven Girl.
The Elven Girl swiftly reacted, forming numerous Wind Sickles in the air, aiming them at the spinning Golem.
But none of them were able to stop it—the Golem crushed everything in its path.
Suddenly, a massive fist emerged from the spinning Golem, lunging toward the Elven Girl.
"Water Shield!"
She called out, and a water-like barrier materialized in front of her. The Golem's fist slammed into it, piercing through the shield.
However, even though the Water Shield was penetrated, it didn't shatter completely. Instead, the water dampened the fist's movement, slowing it down just enough for the Elven Girl to evade the attack.
Seeing the opportunity, her body flashed, and in the blink of an eye, she reappeared above the boulder.
"Fire Wraith!"
A massive surge of flames descended, crashing onto the boulder. Even though George was protected within the Golem, the intense heat of the Fire Wraith forced him to withdraw his Golem to avoid further damage.
Both opponents locked eyes, their gazes unwavering as they prepared to clash once more.
This time, however, George did something unexpected.
He punched the ground, causing the earth to rise up, forming a large boulder.
"Earth Drill!"
The Golem activated a skill, and the crowd gasped in astonishment—even the Elven Girl was caught off guard by this.
The boulder began spinning like a drill, its sharp, rotating force aimed directly at the Elven Girl as George controlled its trajectory toward her.
The audience watched in awe as the two continued battling fiercely, exchanging blow after blow in an intense struggle.
However, George's relentless attacks gradually began to suppress the Elven Girl.
She was being hit not only by his skills but also by the Golem's overwhelming power.
