But Bianca didn’t take the opening. She chose to keep fighting instead.

“Wait, is Steven having some kind of breakthrough? Is Bianca buying him time?”

The crowd stared at Steven, awe written across every face, each of them wearing the same envious The crowd stared at Steven, awe written across

expression.

Winning a wife like her felt like it should be the highest achievement a man could hope for in this life.

The young man across from Bianca, once he pieced together what was actually happening, felt his face darken with humiliation.

If she didn’t want him, that was fine, but this felt like a completely different kind of cruelty.

This was nothing short of an insult.

A Four-Sigil fighter, played around with like a toy by someone still stuck at Three-Sigil?

He couldn’t stomach that.

He let out a furious shout. “Who said I’d play along with your games?”

The energy of his Two-Sigil mark burst free in an instant.

His affinity ran to earth.

He slammed both palms down toward the ground with tremendous force.

An instant later, the earth itself began shaking violently, as though some ancient dragon of stone had just clawed its way awake beneath the surface.

It surged toward Bianca with terrifying speed.

Bianca’s expression stayed calm through the entire thing.

She swung her blade in a smooth arc, sending a spray of blossoming sword strikes outward.

In full view of the crowd, she carved that charging earth dragon into scattered rubble without the slightest ¡ effort.

She stood there afterward, blade raised, radiating a fierce,/unmistakable presence.

The young man’s expression soured considerably. His entire Two-Sigil attack had just been swept aside like nothing at all.

That alone told everyone watching just how massive the gap between them truly was.

Bianca still wasn’t in any hurry to finish him off. She needed to buy Steven more time, plain and simple.

Unless he chose to concede on his own, this fight would keep dragging on.

But how could he possibly bring himself to give up in a match this important?

He had to keep fighting, whatever it took.

He surged toward Bianca once again.

His assault grew more aggressive with every passing second.

Yet Bianca continued to block each attack with ease, letting the clock tick away at her own pace.

By the time the fight crossed the forty five minute mark, the young man was gasping for breath, worn ragged from the sheer cost of his relentless attacks.

A creeping sense of helplessness settled over him.

He was technically the stronger fighter by rank, yet somehow he couldn’t find a single way to break through her defense.

And Bianca kept right on stalling.

Frustration boiled up inside him.

One more strike. Either it worked, or he’d concede.

He couldn’t take much more of this humiliating stalemate.

His eyes narrowed with focus, and he drew in a deep, steadying breath.

His third Divine Sigil began stirring to life.

His foot slammed against the ground, and his whole body shot forward toward Bianca like a launched spear.

A golden brown light flickered and pulsed around him.

As he charged, the stone and earth beneath his feet gathered in his palm, slowly compacting into a massive war hammer that dragged behind him as he ran.

He let out a furious roar. “Earthbound Cage! Rise!”

His foot struck the ground with tremendous force.

Around Bianca, massive pillars of stone tore up from the earth in every direction, crossing and interlocking until they formed a complete cage of solid rock, sealing her in entirely.

The young man’s face twisted with savage intent as he roared, his body coiling like a drawn bow before he swung that massive hammer down toward Bianca with everything he had.

“Crush her!”

The hammer plummeted downward, wrapped in a heavy crushing pressure.

That single blow carried genuine, devastating power. An ordinary Three-Sigil fighter caught beneath it

would likely have been left coughing blood, badly injured.

But Bianca’s expression never wavered, not even slightly.

Beating him would have taken almost no effort on her part, so she felt nothing close to fear or panic.

Her striking eyes stayed calm and steady as flames erupted violently across her body.

Her second Divine Sigil blazed to life, radiating a brilliant, dazzling gold light.

A pressure unique to SSS-rank power rolled outward from her, unmistakable and absolute.

A soft cry escaped her lips.

She swung her blade in one sharp, decisive motion.

Her Two Sigil mark unleashed its true power. Phoenix Sunflare!

A massive phoenix formed entirely from roaring flame tore free from Bianca’s body in an instant.

That terrifying force shattered the stone prison into a cloud of drifting dust in the blink of an eye.

The phoenix let out what sounded like a piercing, triumphant cry in that same moment.

Several Divine Kings and Divine Lords watching from the stands turned their heads in genuine shock.

What incredible power that phoenix carried.

There was something almost alive about it, some faint spark of true will.

The phoenix tore through the collapsing cage and slammed directly into the falling hammer above.

That hammer had looked utterly terrifying, carrying pressure that seemed impossible to survive.

But the instant it made contact with the phoenix, a spiderweb of cracks spread across its surface in an instant.

The young man’s pupils locked in place, disbelief flooding across his face.

He wondered if the gap between their strength really this massive.

The hammer shattered completely in front of every witness in the stadium, and the phoenix emerged from the collision completely unharmed.

Just as everyone assumed the exchange had run its course, the phoenix, which had been soaring back up toward the sky, suddenly changed direction.

It turned and dove straight toward the young man.

It let out another faint cry as it closed the distance.

The young man’s face went white with panic.

If that strike landed, he’d be in serious trouble.

He needed to keep his body intact for the repechage challenge later, whatever happened here.

“I concede!”

He scrambled backward across the ground, desperate to escape the phoenix bearing down on him.

But the phoenix moved far too fast, and there was no way for him to outrun it now.

Right at that critical, final second, one of the academy elders appeared directly in front of the young man and struck the phoenix down with a single open palm.

The impact rang out like a thunderclap, and the phoenix dissolved into a scattering wash of flame and vanished into the air.
