A Man Like None Other (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 5280

Jared's expression hardened; not a shard of complacency remained.

He felt the strike packed with savage spatial energy; one misstep meant instant annihilation.

He inhaled, flooded every vessel with spiritual energy, and drew the Dragonslayer Sword into a flawless golden crescent.

“Dragon Rider!”

Golden radiance coiled into a colossal dragon, spiraling upward to smash against the approaching sword shadow.

Boom!

Shock waves rattled the arena; even the mighty Spiritual Barricade Array spider-webbed with fragile cracks.

Both men skidded back three steps, crimson fire churning behind their ribs.

Surprise flashed across Jayson's eyes; Jared had intercepted Rock Explosion unscathed.

“Interesting,” he snarled, tightening his grip. “Again!”

Jayson loosed a long, primal howl. His blade carved through the air ever faster, the arc of silver light multiplying until the dueling platform seemed crazed with moon-bright whirls.

“Sky Havoc Sword Art, second form—Sky Piercing!”

“Sky Havoc Sword Art, third form—Earthquake!”

He released the two cuts a moment apart. Each slash was fiercer than the last, and every shimmering stroke tore a new spatial rift in the very fabric of space. Cracks spider-webbed in midair until the arena itself looked ready to rip wide open.

Jared met the attacks without blinking. He flowed between Dragonslayer and Dragon Rider, one moment brutal as a thunderclap, the next light as drifting silk. Gold-bright sword lights slammed against Jayson's sword shadows, each collision detonating with a roar that rattled bones.

Spectators below the stage gaped in mute astonishment. This was no friendly exhibition—it was a duel to the death.

“Incredible! Now, this is the pinnacle of swordsmanship!”

“Jayson's Sky Havoc Sword Art really earns its legend, but Jared just refuses to break!”

“Who's going to fall first?”
