There was a soft, muffled buzzing sound.
It came from Andrew as he suddenly lifted his hand high. Then, a dense burst of energy gathered in his palm and shot outward like a solid force.
Koda's heavy sword strike stopped dead in the air, unable to move even an inch closer.
Andrew blocked his full-force attack with just one hand, and the energy he forced outward hovered there, holding the blade midair.
The sight was so unreal that Koda began trembling uncontrollably.
Everyone behind him, including Rusty and the elders of the Advanced Medical Institute, stood frozen with wide eyes.
Rusty instinctively gulped. "T-This is the strength of a martial emperor, isn't it? Could he actually be a martial emperor?"
Up on the balcony, Mikayla was dumbfounded. She was certain Andrew did not possess a martial emperor's cultivation level. Yet, what he was doing right now was clearly a martial emperor's ability.
How was this possible?
Her heart immediately sank.
Koda was as good as dead, but that was not what made Mikayla feel most desperate and defeated. What made her feel most helpless was realizing that, once again, Andrew was far out of her reach.
This man was unbelievably powerful!
Even if she herself reached the martial emperor level, she could not block Koda's greatsword like this.
"Die!" Snapping back to reality, Koda did not retreat but instead pressed down on his greatsword with a savage expression.
Yet, no matter how much his arms bulged with veins, trembling with effort, covered in sweat from head to toe, the greatsword could not get even an inch closer to Andrew.
"Koda, I was willing to spare your life." Andrew looked up at Koda, his smile as cold as ice. "But you're useless. So you have no one to blame but yourself."
Andrew gripped the Godslayer with his left hand and swept it upward from below. The first thing to break was Koda's greatsword.
It snapped cleanly into two pieces like it was made of clay. Next came half of Koda's body, sliced clean off. The cut was so precise that it left no excess blood or shattered bone.
Koda let out a strange, weak sound as fear consumed him, and he fell backward.
