Reborn: Apocalypse Ready. War Goddess by My Side novel Chapter 480

Chapter 480 A Head-On Fight

Alan turned his gaze toward the two vice principals.

“Mr. Browne, Mr. Lane.”

The two men gave slight nods, although most of their attention remained on Steven.

“Alan, these two are your…”

Only then did Alan reply, “They’re my teammates, Steven and Bianca. You already know Bianca.

“She’s Rowenville’s first SSS-rank Awakened.

“The two of them will represent Rowenville Awakened Academy in this year’s Awakened Tournament.”

At those words, both vice principals showed clear surprise.

They had personally witnessed Steven’s strength moments ago. Even Jacques had been completely powerless before him. If he entered Orroux’s Awakened Tournament, taking first place would be as easy as picking fruit.

A trace of excitement surfaced in both their hearts. With two talents like these, Orroux might truly have a chance to make a name for itself in the third-tier Awakened Tournament this year.

Alan looked at Steven and Bianca before saying, “These two are vice principals of Orroux Awakened Academy. This is Mr. Robby Lane, and this is Mr. Marcus Browne.”

Steven and Bianca both bowed politely.

Greyson laughed. “Excellent. Very impressive!”

He looked toward Steven. “Just now, with a single move, you slipped past a Divine Lord’s pressure and casually drove a Four-Sigil Divine Knight into the ground. That’s real skill.”

Receiving praise from Greyson was already a tremendous honor.

Countless prodigies would never receive treatment like that.

Jacques and the other two instantly became jealous. They had come here hoping to earn Greyson’s approval, yet he had barely paid attention to them from beginning to end.

Now Steven had gained that recognition by planting Jacques face-first into the dirt, which only made Jacques even more furious.

“Mr. Stone, I refuse to accept this! He only won because he caught me off guard. If we fought face-to-face, I might not lose to him!”

Hearing that, Steven, Alan, and the others looked at him as though he were an idiot.

A wave of embarrassment immediately swept over Jacques.

What?

Why do I suddenly feel like I’ve made myself look foolish?

Greyson’s expression remained calm as he looked at Steven.

“My precious daughter says you have the potential to become a Martial Master. Coincidentally, these three came to seek guidance from me. Spar with them for a bit and give them some pointers. Let me see what you’re capable of.

“I want to know what level you’ve reached to earn such praise from my precious daughter.

“And while we’re at it, we can grant his wish of facing you head-on.”

A faint smile appeared on Steven’s face.

“Once I start fighting, I don’t really know how to hold back. If something happens, that’s on him.”

A simp? My wife doesn’t need one in this life..

Jacques barked, “Who exactly are you looking down on?”

Steven smiled. “You.”

Jacques was speechless.

Then fury erupted across his face. “You’ll pay for that arrogance!”

A terrifying aura exploded from his body. Four Divine Sigils appeared, radiating crimson SS- rank light.

And even the attribute glow of his Divine Sigil was blood-red.

A mutated water attribute.

To be more precise, it was a blood attribute.

Chapter 480 A Head-On Fight

Even his eyes seemed stained crimson as rage surged through him.

Robby hurriedly stopped him. “Jacques, calm down. This is Greyson’s residence. Don’t act recklessly.”

Jacques was practically going mad. Recklessly?

“Sir! It was him! He sneak attacked…”

Robby shot him a stern glare.

Jacques clenched his teeth and fell silent.

the anger

inside him.

He could suppress the power of his Divine Sigils, but he couldn’t suppress the Steven had pinned him to the ground and beaten him in front of everyone. And right in front of that girl too.

He couldn’t let that go. He had to recover his dignity.

Robby smiled and said, “So you’re Bianca. Very well. This year’s Awakened Tournament just became much more interesting.”

He looked Bianca over carefully, clearly pleased.

Bianca’s expression remained calm. She wasn’t the type to become timid just because someone held authority.

Robby then looked at Steven. “It’s obvious you’re impressive. Very strong. I may never have heard your name before, but after what I just witnessed, I can already tell quite a bit.

“But don’t underestimate Jacques. In a genuine head-on battle, it’s still difficult to say who would come out on top.

“The three of them are Orroux Academy’s seeded competitors for the third-tier Awakened Tournament.”

Chapter 481 Seriously?

Robby simply didn’t believe Steven could defeat Jacques. After all, Steven came from Rowenville, a small fourth-tier city. In his view, Steven had only gained the upper hand earlier because he attacked unexpectedly and possessed greater speed.

Hearing that, Steven gave a contemptuous chuckle. “Him? A seeded player?

“No wonder Orroux keeps getting crushed in the third-tier Awakened Tournament. If garbage like him qualifies as a seed, losing is only natural.”

Yet Steven’s expression remained completely unchanged. In his eyes, Jacques moved absurdly slowly, like an old man shuffling along.

Like an old man shuffling along.

There wasn’t the slightest threat.

This was the obvious advantage granted by the Eye of Insight at its current level.

Jacques truly wasn’t weak. After all, he was among the top talents of Orroux Awakened Academy.

Chapter 481 Seriously?

With the resources of a powerful background supporting him, his martial foundation was genuinely impressive.

Unfortunately for him, he had encountered Steven…

No matter how gifted he was, facing someone as abnormal as Steven rendered all that talent meaningless.

The only way to defeat Steven was through absolute power. Otherwise, there was not even a sliver of hope.

Everyone watched the battle unfold.

Jacques was indeed fast. In the blink of an eye, he had already reached Steven and swung his saber horizontally with terrifying force.

To the spectators, Jacques was dangerously close. If Steven reacted even a fraction too slowly, his throat would be sliced open instantly.

But in the very next moment…

Everyone saw Jacques’ blade pass right by Steven’s throat.

Robby and the others were stunned. He wasn’t hit!?

Such precise control?

But even the saber aura should have injured Steven. Why hadn’t it?

Steven had merely taken a tiny step backward and already avoided the attack.

Jacques continued attacking.

A dazzling saber art unfolded in his hands.

Every strike was ruthless and sharp.

To onlookers, the technique appeared nearly flawless.

It had already reached the Mastery stage, perhaps even close to Peak.

This was level 6 saber art Jacques had mastered.

Its name was Blood Shadows Blade.

Every slash left behind a crimson afterimage, creating an intimidating spectacle.

Chapter 421 Serious?

It resembled endless waves of bloody phantoms launching relentless attacks, smooth yet savage, while crimson saber aura scattered in every direction. Its power was undeniable

Yet in Steven’s eyes, it was riddled with flaws. He analyzed every movement while silently absorbing its strengths and integrating them into his own understanding
