A Man Like None Other (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 1607

Chapter 1607 Unscrupulous

Skylar and Edgar used incredibly peculiar magecraft, some of which were even unseen and unheard of. As it turned out, those were the most powerful abilities of the spirits residing in their respective bodies.

“Edgar, how dare you be so arrogant despite your paltry skills!” Skylar bellowed before seemingly turning himself invisible mid-air.

The next second, Edgar felt a massive force crushing down on him, causing him to tremble ever so slightly. Skylar’s figure suddenly rematerialized, only to reveal the utter shock and disbelief on his face.

What? That was my most powerful blow, yet Edgar barely flinched from it! As his face darkened, the rest of the crowd, too, watched on with bated breath.

Most of them had hoped to see Skylar emerge victorious, yet from the looks of it, that outcome no longer seemed possible.

Edgar instantly burst into maniacal laughter. “Hahaha! Just so you know, my body has withstood lightning tribulation before. There’s no way you can hurt me!”

With that, a black aura engulfed him and morphed into a giant hand that hurtled toward Skylar. Just then, an old voice rang out in Skylar’s mind. “Run! Quick, run…”

Alas, he was in such a daze that he hardly had time to react before the giant hand slammed down on him.

Boom! In an instant, Skylar lost his balance and plummeted to the ground.

Edgar, however, wasn’t ready to let up on his opponent. Instead, he launched a relentless attack by blasting Skylar with energy beams from his hand, rendering the latter unable to move or retaliate.

Knowing that he had to strike while the iron was hot, he threw out more than a dozen punches in a row, forcing Edgar to retreat in fear.

After seeing how Skylar had turned things around with the spirit taking control, everyone started to wish they had one in them too. “Wow. That spirit’s so powerful! How I wish I could have one attached to me too…”

“Wouldn’t that make you a puppet, though? You’d lose all your privacy!” “Who cares about privacy when you can have that insane amount of power? I wish the spirit would possess me right now!”

“Yes, and with the spirit’s help, I’m sure we’d get a significant boost in our cultivation…”

Jared said nothing as he listened to the chatter around him. Gosh. If the martial arts world were to continue on this course, its end would soon be in sight. There’s no way people can make real progress when they’d resort to unscrupulous behavior to attain power!
