"Hmm?!" Thom Holmes's pupils slightly contracted. He could clearly feel that Azure Dragon's strike was far more powerful than his previous moves. Without much thought, he used all his strength to send out dozens of airwaves, attempting to block the opponent's attack. However, he clearly underestimated Azure Dragon's combat power.
After the blade's energy passed, the long spear was cut into two pieces. The front half fell to the ground, and the blade's momentum did not diminish as it went straight through his chest.
Thom's face instantly froze, and he was forced back about ten steps. His aura deflated like a punctured balloon.
"..." He opened his mouth but failed to utter a word. A bloodstain appeared on his chest, and blood spurted out. Immediately afterward, he fell straight backward, his legs losing their strength.
"Thom!"
Avery Holmes cried out in pain, quickly rushing to Thom's side, trying to help, but it seemed hopeless.
"You rascal, you killed him?!" He glared at Azure Dragon with bloodshot eyes.
"If you have any objections, you can also make a move. I'll be happy to accompany you!" Azure Dragon replied calmly.
"Kimmons, you forced me into this!" Avery Holmes took a deep breath and then raised his hand, shouting, "Kill them!"
All the core members of the Holmes clan rushed out, their auras fully released, instantly lowering the temperature in the surrounding air to freezing levels. The overall strength of the Holmes clan was slightly superior to the Frazier clan. Among around eighty people present, fifteen were at the Warlord level or higher, with three to four dozen Battle Gods. The strongest among them was the clan leader, Avery Holmes, who was at the peak of the War Grandmaster stage.
"Attack!" Casey said in a low voice and drew his sword, leading the charge. Azure Dragon and his team followed closely behind.
The two hundred Bloodshadow Army soldiers shouted in unison, brandishing their swords. Both sides immediately engaged in a fierce battle, and the sound of intense clashes filled the scene.
"I've heard that Commander Kimmons achieved War Grandmaster-level strength at such a young age. Please enlighten me!" Avery intercepted Casey.
"Very well!" Casey's eyes narrowed, not wasting any more words. He raised his hand and struck.
He had already reached the pinnacle of War Grandmaster, and though he was one level lower than his opponent, he had no fear, especially with his blade in hand.
Avery Holmes also wielded a three-meter-long spear. As he flicked his wrists, over a dozen powerful airwaves surged toward Casey. In no time, the two began to exchange blows, and their powerful auras caused the airwaves to rage, leaving deep marks on the nearby trees. In less than two minutes, they had fought for more than a dozen rounds, and judging by their auras, it was an even match.
"I didn't expect you to challenge me across levels. You've surprised me!" After another intense ten minutes of battle, Avery spoke up.
"You'll be even more surprised!" Casey replied, blocking his attack with a swipe of his blade.
