Remorse After Breaking Up (Sebastian) novel Chapter 923

"It looks like Sebastian's luck is about to run out."

Faylin stood among the crowd, a subtle glimmer of confidence flickering in her eyes. She was the only one present who truly understood Sebastian's strength.

Having seen him defeat Solomon, who was a pinnacle demigod, she knew that even someone as powerful as Jameson wouldn't stand a chance against him, let alone two or three of his kind.

As the battle commenced, Jameson lunged forward, his word gleaming with a metallic brilliance, as if it were a falling star plummeting toward the earth. With a force as overwhelming as a tidal wave, he thrust the weapon at Sebastian.

Sebastian moved with grace, employing his Phantom Stride. His body moved like a phantom through the flashes of sword and blade. His movements left behind mesmerizing afterimages, blurring the line between reality and illusion.

Seeing this, Jameson's attacks became fiercer and his swordplay grew more relentless. His strikes came down like a violent storm, as though an unstoppable stampede of horses was charging toward Sebastian, aiming to crush him with sheer force.

However, Sebastian remained calm and composed. He channeled the active and passive energy, his aura flowing seamlessly with the surrounding forces, as if he had merged with the very air itself. His Phantom Stride left afterimages behind him, like butterflies fluttering through the battlefield.

The spectators watched the intense clash, tension mounting.

"Sebastian's movements are unbelievable! He's dodging Jameson's attacks so effortlessly."

"Jameson's strikes are too powerful, so I'm sure Sebastian won't last much longer at this rate."

The crowd was in awe.

However, Sebastian wasn't just dodging. Soon, he spotted a slight flaw in Jameson's swordsmanship. Without hesitation, he counterattacked.

With a swift slash of his sword, an invisible wave of energy shot out. With unstoppable force, the attack roared toward Jameson.

Jameson's face turned pale with shock. There was no time for him to dodge. As the energy slammed into him, he staggered backward.

Seizing the opportunity, Sebastian charged at Jameson with a lightning speed. His blade kept flashing, leaving Jameson with no chance to counterattack.

Franz also couldn't believe the fact that Jameson had lost to Sebastian. Just as everyone suspected, he had entered Sebastian into the competition hoping to make him back down and call off the engagement, but he didn't expect him to be this strong.

Cadmus flew back to the stage and said loudly, "Congratulations to all of you for making it into the top ten. Next, we will begin the ranking matches. The format is a round-robin. Each of you will face the other nine competitors.

"Each victory earns the competitor one point, and the rankings will be determined by the total of the final points. The higher the ranking, the greater the rewards."

"The top ten competitors will each receive a Pure Essence Pill, a high-grade enchanted garment, a storage space ring, and ten thousand spiritual stones, along with access to the Forbidden Ground. The ninth place competitor gets an additional ten thousand spiritual stones, while the eighth place receives 20 thousand more, and so on."

The list of the top ten competitors was then announced. The competitors were Sebastian, Faylin, Alfie, Leila, Dangelo Rogers, Jorge Bauer, Jadon Lowery, Drew Tantum, Zaire Burks, and Houston Wright.

This time, there would be no drawing of lots. Cadmus announced, "The first match in the ranking competition will be Leila versus Sebastian!"

Leila deliberately smirked in triumph as she leapt onto the platform. Her eyes locked onto Sebastian with a sharp and mocking glare.
