Ethan stared at the huge, bulky boy, who seemed like a full-grown man, but that wasn't the problem because he recognized the boy as one of the purebloods.
He stood almost about 7 feet tall, towering over Ethan's 6'2 height as if he was a giant.
"Darling, he is taking advantage of me," the red-haired girl said, pointing at Ethan.
The huge boy's wide nose flared, and he stared at Ethan with killing intent.
Seeing the expression on the boy's face, Ethan tried to converse with him.
"Don't take it the wrong way. I was just preventing her from inflicting...
"Shut up!" The huge boy yelled, and he continued, "My girlfriend will never lie to me."
Ethan's eyes narrowed into slits, and he said, "Your girlfriend is a bitch, and don't you dare tell me to shut up again."
"Kai, baby, he is insulting me. What are you going to do about it? " the red-haired girl said with tears.
Seeing the expression on her face and the tears streaming down her cheeks can make people think it was Ethan's fault. The initial confident way she talked was now gone and it was replaced with a face that could make anybody sympathise with her.
Ethan's face got darker and darker as he continued to watch her act, and he couldn't help but think, "I know most pretty girls have bad characters, but I never knew it would reach this extent."
[sorry for the saying there, and I don't mean our real world because this is just a fantasy world.]
"You dare insult my girlfriend in front of me," his laugh lines darkened, and his wide nostrils flared even more.
Helen, beside Ethan, was starting to sweat, and her heartbeat rate accelerated. She willed her hands to stop shaking and tugged on Ethan's clothes.
In contrast to Helen, Ethan stood there unfazed, with no glint of fear, and he said, " I never insulted your girlfriend. I just stated a fact. "
He was done taking this type of insult. He was done acting weak or timid in front of anybody again.
Ever since he merged with the ancient dragon, he had become more confident, proud, and brave. It was no secret that the Draconian was arrogant and had pride, but Ethan wasn't just any proud. he had bought with the first human dragon, and their souls had become one, and it was now changing his old habits and self-confidence was one of them.
"I guess you want a fight, huh? I will give you just that," Kai said, and the next moment, his forearm bulged and increased in size. His legs grew larger. His legs now looked like five legs joined together, but it did most stop there as his entire body grew massively; he now looked like an actual giant, but his face still looked smaller compared to his huge flashy body. Nevertheless, his aura has now increased, and some weak-willed ones have started backing away from the ring.
Ethan distanced himself after seeing the strange transformation happening to Kai, but he was not scared; instead, he was observing his potential opponent.
After about ten seconds, the previous 7 feet kai now stood at a whopping 9 feet.
Seeing his form and the power emitted from it, Ethan knew the purebloods were no joke.
If their teen, who is probably still under training, can emit such power, then what about the main members of the family?
They are not called demigods among men for nothing, and this is such an instance.
Seeing his form, Ethan pushed Helen out of the ring. The red-haired girl also walked out of the ring with a smug expression.
" Hahahaha! You fucked with the wrong person and now you are going to wish you never crossed my path," Kai said, and the next moment, he charged at Ethan, making the ring rumble from the impact of his feet.
Ethan concentrated, and thick flames, which looked like larva, started whirling around his hands, making it look like snakes were moving around his body, but the only difference was that this was a flame. The flames soon started making entwined circles around his hands, and it made his entire hands glow.
Students who were preoccupied with their affairs lost interest in their training and focused their attention on the upcoming fight.
The entire room was now warm and hot, making it difficult for some of the students to breathe, but for some, it didn't affect them much.
Some of the students were excited to see a fight happen, so they started discussing among themselves, and some almost started to place bets on who would win.
The person who was spearheading this entire betting process was the red-haired girl.
"Hey, isn't that the flame user from the assessment?" One of the students said, and he added, "He fucked with pure blood and now his life would be ruined."
Another student who looked undernourished said, "Didn't he know the purebloods are like gods, huh? And also, it's going to be entertaining. Now I can't wait for Kai Boulder to start kicking his ass," the boy said and flashed his broken teeth.
When they reached the middle, Kai sent out a punch, and Ethan did the same, making the entire hall wait for the outcome.
However, in a split second, when the two hands were about to collide, a person came in between them, blocking the two fists, making Ethan and Kai fly out of the ring.
"What just happened?" Ethan thought, and he raised his gaze to the ring, where they were before, and he saw instructor Wu Chen standing with his hand behind his back.
A few seconds ago, Wu Chen could be seen watching the fight that was about to happen from a far distance.
"Sh*t! They are going to cause a huge mess in my dojo," Wu Chen thought to himself, and the next moment he disappeared from his spot, as if he was never there, and appeared in the middle of the fight. He threw out his palm, blocking the incoming fist, making Ethan and Kai fly out of the ring.
"This is my dojo and I would not tolerate any disrespect," Wu Chen said as he glared at Ethan and Kai.
The next moment, his voice became soft, "Now if you want to have a duel, you should make it official by issuing a simple..."
"You're on!!"
