There are only two ways to stop a fight between two contestants. The first is if the referee, a girl from the Cross Family, intervenes and personally stops the fight. The second is if one of the contestants decides to surrender.

These rules are quite simple, which is why you could maneuver well between them. There must be a good reason for the referee to intervene in a fight.

Of course, the main reason is a deadly attack by one of the contestants. If the participant's life is not in danger, the referee will not interfere. In that case, if the contestant wants to stop the fight he must accept his defeat. Evan knew that very well.

He had cut off Soren's hands, but it did not threaten his life in any way. The cut places were not bleeding because of the thick layer of ice, and Soren was still conscious. According to the rules, there was no reason for the referee to intervene.

Initially, Soren thought Evan had given him the fatal blow and their duel would be stopped. But when he saw what Evan was doing with his Magic Artifacts he immediately rushed to surrender. Except Evan was ready for that, so he quickly cast the Thorny Ivy Call and didn't let Soren say a word.

It was clear to everyone in the arena that their fight was over, but the rules allowed it to continue. Evan was about to take full advantage of that.

Whoosh.

Evan took the bracelets off Soren's hands lying on the ground and began squeezing them as hard as he could. Unfortunately, the bracelets were much stronger than the previous ring and Evan had no luck to destroy them easily. But the solution quickly came up.

"Your bracelets are quite tough, but don't worry, I'll break them for sure. AHAHAHAHAHAHAH.

" Evan said loudly and put the bracelets on the ground.

The next moment he gripped Soren's sword tighter and slammed it into the bracelets with all his might.

Crack.

The force of the blow shattered one of the bracelets into many pieces. Evan had just destroyed an artifact that cost several thousand gold coins. And he wasn't going to stop there.

Bam.

A second blow and a second bracelet was similarly shattered into pieces.

"How satisfying, and the best part is that this is just the beginning!

" Said Evan contentedly and headed for the immobilized Soren.

The audience was in shock, suddenly the battle between the two young men took a very strange turn. Evan's actions were not only very brutal, but also extremely thoughtful. It amazed everyone in the stands.

Marcel was no exception, even he hadn`t expected something like that from Evan:

"Zak, it seems to me that even when you were young you didn`t dared to do something like that. Everyone is just confused, this is the most unusual fight I've ever seen.

"

Zak smiled and replied contentedly,

"Oh, yep. I didn't take this guy with me for nothing. I found him interesting at first sight. Look at Ralph, he's about to explode with anger. AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

"

In saying this, Zak was pointing at Ralph Whitehead, one of the elders of the Whitehead Family. Soren was his apprentice whom he had personally trained and equipped.

Ralph was extremely unhappy that Soren had so shamefully lost to some unknown guy. But when he saw Evan destroying expensive artifacts he could no longer contain his rage.

Crack.

The moment Evan destroyed another ring, Ralph stood up from his seat and shouted loudly so everyone could hear him,

"Stop the fight, everyone`s already known the winner!

"

He wasn't particularly interested in Soren's condition, he was more worried about the artifacts, which were fewer and fewer by the second.

Everyone except Evan turned their attention to him. As for Evan, he continued doing his

"hard work

".

Fane looked coldly at Ralph and said rudely:

"Why the ** does the fight have to be stopped? Do you see any violation of the rules?

"

Ralph frowned and quickly replied,

"One of the contestants can't fight anymore, and Evan Lynch did a mean thing that`s why Soren can't give up!

"

He wasn't going to back down, but that was his big mistake.

Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.

Suddenly a terrifying pressure began to emanate from Fane and everyone in the arena felt it. Fane and Ralph were far apart, but Ralph felt he had chosen the wrong opponent. Fane looked at Ralph like he was nothing.

"Listen, you, piece of **. The rules haven`t been broken whatever you say. If you don't agree we can have another fight right now, just without rules. If you don't have the balls to accept my challenge, then shut up and don't open your **ing mouth again.

"

Fane was never known for his manners, so his response was as rude as possible. In fact, he didn't really care what Ralph thought. Evan's fight was interesting to Fane, and he wanted to keep watching it.

Ralph didn't say anything back. He couldn't compete with a man like Fane Cross. All he had to do was to watch Evan making a complete mess.

While the two were talking, Evan had already destroyed all the Magic Artifacts. The audience had already realized what Evan's goal was, so they decided the fight was over.

A girl dressed in black appeared next to Evan and wanted to declare him the winner, but Evan suddenly said:

"Wait, I'm not finished yet.

"

The girl as well as the audience did not understand what Evan meant, but soon they did.

The young man had already destroyed all the artifacts, but there was something else that was intact, namely the shield and sword. The shield was very strong and breaking it was not an easy task, but Evan had an idea.

He put the shield under his feet and grabbed Soren's sword with both hands.

Whoosh.

He used the

"Ice Veil

" once more to renew the layer of ice that was already cracked in many places. In the next moment, he brought the point of the sword down on the shield with all his might, namely the jewel in the center.

Crack.

The shield could not withstand as much pressure as the sword. The gem cracked and all the energy burst out of it in an instant. There was a deafening explosion in which both the shield and sword were severely deformed and turned into mere pieces of metal.

Evan tossed the weapon aside and took

"Reverse Death

".

Whoosh.

He canceled his spell of the Summoning Magic and Soren was finally free. Evan raised his free hand high up and slowly walked out of the arena.

There was no applause for the first second, but then some people started clapping loudly, namely Zak, Marcel, Koen, Fane, and even Gilbert.

Seeing that, the others joined in, and Evan left the arena to loud applause, not just for his skill, but for the eccentricity of his actions and decisions.
