Dance Academy's girls were tear-stained, and as the weakest in terms of physical strength, they were the ones who died the most under the sandworm's attacks.
"Awakened ones? You dare to call yourselves awakened ones!"
"You are a group of heartless beasts, indifferent to others' lives! You eat the best, use the best, and we skimp on everything to provide for you!"
The boy who had been saved by Arnold before and his companions cursed vehemently at the awakened ones who had fled earlier.
"There was real danger, but you only cared about saving yourselves!" People remembered the awakened black bear, and in comparison, they felt that the awakened ones from their own academy were truly timid and weak. Gerard and others looked at the excited students below the stage with bitter smiles, knowing deep inside that, after this incident, Clark's guidance might not even be necessary.
A huge crack was emerging between ordinary people and awakened ones in the academy. Was this also part of his calculations?
Principal Gerard secretly glanced at Clark's back, feeling a chill in his heart.
Unlike the emotionally charged crowd, Clark just patted the head of the black dragon, his heart unaffected.
"Remove the dragon's aura."
The invisible dragon's aura dissipated, and the sandworm, previously tormented and stationary not far from the stage, moved again. With no brains, it didn't think at all.
Its massive body moved as fast as lightning. The sandworm's tooth-filled mouth suddenly reached toward the dense crowd, and a mist of blood rose, limbs and arms flying like scattered stones.
"Ah! Ah! Ah!"
Students screamed and wailed. At this moment, everyone gathered together, and each time the sandworm reached out, it could devour hundreds of people alive.
Some timid girls covered their faces and cried. Even those with more courage were constantly retreating, their eyes filled with horror.
"Where are our awakened ones? Come on! Hurry up and do something!"
The awakened ones mixed in the crowd just ran away without looking back.
Do something? Are you kidding!
None of their skills had any effect on the sandworm. Terrified, all they wanted was to run as far away as possible.
"Monster! I'll fight you!"
"Mighty Expansion!"
A male student from the physical education department, seeing the sandworm attacking again, and the target being his beloved girl, opened his skill without hesitation, leaping high and rushing toward the sandworm.
"Bang."
The sandworm casually swung its body, and in the dark night, a burst of blood mist exploded from mid-air, raining down. The only courageous boy didn't even last half a second in front of the sandworm, turning into minced meat.
With his death, it seemed as if the crowd had been emptied of the last bit of rationality, almost on the brink of falling into extreme despair.
"Clark!"
As the sandworm began its slaughter, the crowd, with nowhere to escape, looked towards Clark on the high platform with the last shred of hope.
"Lynn, activate mental enhancement for everyone!"
Clark's voice remained calm, and the performance began!
As the sandworm launched another attack, time seemed to slow down in the eyes of everyone.
The ferocious mouthparts approached, and the thick smell of blood spewed from the sandworm's mouth.
"Boss, please make a move!" Just as everyone felt certain of their impending death, a low shout echoed in everyone's ears.
Power surge!
Strength +2, Agility +2, Constitution +2, Willpower +2!
On the high platform, Clark's body instantly emitted a strong golden spiritual energy, as if substantial, it entered his body, and the suddenly bright light illuminated the surrounding darkness.
The overflowing spiritual energy erupted around him, like a light in the darkness!
"Crack."
The potion shattered.
"Ding, Strength +1, Constitution +1, Agility +1!"
"Ding, Burst power increased by 10%, endurance, resistance to impact increased by 30%, attack speed increased by 20%!"
Peak state!
Under Lynn's mental enhancement for everyone, in the specially strengthened perception of the crowd, the figure on the high platform appeared like a deity.
"Boom!"
With a powerful kick of his right foot, a foot approaching the speed of sound tore through the air. The high platform shattered under the peak eruption.
Clark took a step, and his figure instantly burst into afterimages, appearing on top of the sandworm's head in an instant.
"Dragon!"
Coordinating with the black dragon, he released the dragon's aura, an invisible pressure spread, suppressing the sandworm's resistance.
"Step!!!"
Like thunder, a cold and fierce roar echoed throughout the venue.
Clark's right foot violently stomped down, full force! Approaching the strength of the third level, the massive body of the sandworm was instantly blasted towards the ground by this tremendous force!
"Boom!"
Debris flew, and the earth trembled.
The hard cement floor was smashed into a deep pit, and in the center of the pit, the sandworm's body twisted in pain, and viscous blood sprayed out like a fountain.
The entire academy watched in shock at the scene before them, the colossal body of the sandworm forming a stark contrast with Clark.
In this intense contrast, the seemingly tiny figure seemed to contain endless power.
Never having suffered such damage before, the sandworm, in a fit of fury, suddenly coiled its massive body like an arrow and shot into the air. Its mouthparts opened wide, ready to shred everything!
"Be careful!"
Thousands of anxious and fearful warnings echoed, and everyone nervously watched the figure in mid-air. The insect's mouth was within reach.
"Spiritual Sharing!"
In mid-air, Clark, slowly descending, suddenly emitted a burst of brilliance in his eyes. His right hand extended suddenly, then he grasped the empty space!
"God's Pierce!"
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"
A massive amount of spiritual power turned into substantial shockwaves and crazily blasted toward the sandworm in mid-air.
The worm roared in agony. Like being struck by a thousand heavy hammers, the sandworm leaped in the air, strangely thrown off balance and fell to the ground.
The entire arena fell silent. Every awakened one couldn't believe what they were witnessing.
The power unleashed by Clark's grasp in the void almost scared them silly.
"Thud!"
The giant creature fell. The sandworm's body was covered in wounds as if it had been blasted open. In its rage, it struggled to arch its body, intending to crush the insect in front of it.
However, in the eyes of the onlookers, as Clark landed, every step he took exuded a terrifying might.
With the extravagant consumption of spiritual power, the consecutive use of God's Pierce turned into impacts, repeatedly pushing back the charging sandworm.
Powerful and unrivaled!
Everyone watched in amazement as Clark walked toward the sandworm as if taking a casual stroll.
One step, the dragon's aura condensed into a line, and the body burst open.
Two steps, substantial shockwaves swept across, and the mouthparts were shattered into blood.
Three steps, the sandworm let out a pitiful scream. Under the continuous onslaught, a half-person-high blood hole exploded in its abdomen, revealing a heart pulsating incessantly. The sandworm[Podoi] no longer possessed its previous terrifying aura; its body seemed to have been crushed, and it whimpered, coiling on the ground. The raised mouthparts were its final struggle.
The entire arena fell silent, and the scene before them seemed like a myth.
From start to finish, Clark never lifted a finger; he simply walked forward calmly.
Like Moses parting the Red Sea, one step separated the Dead Sea. Like a deity descending, approaching meant destruction. The shock was indescribable.
The survivors present couldn't find words to express the horror in their hearts. The power of over thirty awakened ones' skills couldn't even compare to a casual strike from Clark.
Is this a human or a monster? We actually thought of challenging such a terrifying existence!
Gratitude, fear. The surviving awakened ones found it hard to swallow. They were grateful they hadn't had the chance to make a move.
