Chapter 232 Her ability is truly incredible.
Wasn't the terrifying black palm imprint in the sky yesterday just like this?
Both the atmosphere and the current scene were strikingly similar. The only difference was that today's spectacle wasn't as horrifying as yesterday's.
Many had initially thought that the nearly world-shattering palm strike from yesterday had been Kyle's doing. Now, they understood.
It turned out that the most extraordinarily powerful individual was actually this woman, Zoey.
William, too, retreated slightly alongside Alice, not wanting to draw too much attention.
On the field, Lucien braced himself with utmost focus. The blue Ninefold Stellar Sanctuary magic formation materialized tangibly. Above his head, a seemingly fragile barrier formed. He believed that even if a meteor were to descend from the heavens, he might be able to withstand it.
However, the imprint of the palm in the sky grew increasingly menacing.
After a short while, the massive palm from the sky came crashing down. It paused mid-air for a moment, and the void showed minute cracks everywhere.
Lucien's pupils contracted. He quickly rolled away in a rather comical manner, scrambling desperately to the boundary.
Just as he made his escape, the barrier in the void, fragile as an eggshell, shattered into pieces.
"Boom!"
The earth shook and mountains trembled. The spot where Zoey and Lucien had just been battling now bore a massive palm-shaped crater.
"Damn! Is she trying to level the entire mountain?"
"So, Zoey is actually this powerful! We better be cautious around her in the future."
"Lucien was lucky to escape so quickly. If he hadn't, he'd either be dead or gravely injured!"
Tristan's face turned pale, standing at a distance, rendered speechless. He had previously thought he could match Zoey in combat. Now, it seemed he had seriously overestimated himself.
His "Lancaster Ancient Fist" was impressive, but no matter how formidable, he could at best be considered an elite within the ranks of mid-tier Soulmancers.
And Zoey? She's like a walking arsenal. Who could possibly defeat her?
Not to mention Zoey, even Lucien, with his Stellar Divination Matrix, would absolutely be overwhelmed.
After a whirl of dust settled, calm returned. Zoey emerged from the ground, her clothes tattered. Her gaze was fixed intently on Lucien, who stood at a distance.
Ready to strike again at any moment.
Kyle hastily announced, "This round goes to the 13th Bureau! From now on, Arcane Village belongs to the 13th Bureau. All fellow Soulmancers, there's no need for further contention."
Zoey coldly asked, "Is the duel over?"
"It's over!" Kyle declared loudly. "You've won. No need to continue fighting."
At this point, Lucien was utterly exhausted. If Zoey decided to attack him further, Lucien would undoubtedly face a severe beating and couldn't even escape.
The battle had ended, and Kyle didn't want to stir up any more trouble.
Hearing Kyle's words, Zoey refrained from acting further and calmly walked over to William's side.
Alice quickly took off her coat and draped it over Zoey, asking, "Are you hurt?"
"I'm fine!" Zoey replied with determination, though her body was clearly covered in wounds.
"Even if you're fine, you should change your clothes," Alice said. Although she wasn't fond of Zoey, she had come with her, and as a girl, wearing clothes that were burnt and tattered wasn't presentable. It wasn't so bad as to be revealing, but it still wasn't a good look.
William added, "Go and rest for a bit, the fight's over anyway."
"Okay." Without further resistance, Zoey followed Alice back into the house.
Alice's medical skills were now top-notch. With the abundance of medicinal herbs stored in the mountains and some procured from the local mages, she tended to and bandaged all of Zoey's wounds.
Then she gave Zoey a set of her own clothes to wear.
Zoey was truly an enigma.
Though she had numerous wounds all over her body, not even ten minutes after being bandaged, she removed all the gauze. Astonishingly, every single wound had disappeared. Her skin was flawless, not a scar in sight.
"How did you manage that?" Alice was stunned. Countless girls undergo surgeries to remove scars.
Zoey had suffered considerable injuries – burns, electrocutions. After the fight, her face was even charred black. Yet, after just a simple face wash, her skin looked soft and supple.
Zoey asked, "Manage what?"
"How did your injuries heal so quickly?"
"Isn't that normal?"
Alice was at a loss for words. Normal? !
If it were normal, there wouldn't be so many people in the world with disfigured faces or bodies covered in scars. It's one thing for wounds to heal quickly, but to not leave any scars was beyond belief.
Yet Zoey seemed to think this was typical, suggesting she'd always been like this.
Indeed, William had mentioned before that she had some sort of 'Warrior God Constitution' and would never gain weight. Given her unique healing capabilities, the idea of her becoming overweight seemed impossible.
A woman who would never gain weight and still had such a large bust...
Alice couldn't help but feel a twinge of envy.
Especially after they had taken a bath together and stood facing each other, Alice felt an inexplicable sense of inferiority.
How could there be women with such perfect physiques in this world? It seemed so unfair.
Oh right, hadn't William mentioned he'd teach her some massage technique to enhance her bust size? She'd definitely have to learn that when he got back.
After Zoey's battle, there were several more fights. Kyle had the huge crater created by Zoey tidied up, and it surprisingly turned into a great venue for duels.
However, the battle between Zoey and Lucien had been so astonishing that the subsequent fights seemed rather ordinary in comparison, with nothing particularly noteworthy.
Regardless, the competition continued.
The battle for the "Cozy Book Haven" was scheduled as the last event.
William and his group relaxed in the mountains for two days, during which William also watched the duels for two days, almost falling asleep from boredom.
The current battles within the Soulmancer community were becoming a tad monotonous. As for the techniques these people employed, they seemed quite ordinary.
Alice initially expressed an interest in learning Zoey's technique.
However, when William personally attempted to teach her, Alice practiced relentlessly in the mountains for half a day. At best, she could only muster a force just strong enough to knock over an eggshell.
Achieving the same level as Zoey seemed virtually impossible.
William didn't just transfer the usage method of the "Cosmic Palm" directly into Alice's memory.
Alice had been advancing too smoothly in terms of power enhancement. William felt it was necessary for her to experience the challenges of improving one's abilities. If everything were made easy by William's constant assistance, wouldn't her progress be too effortless?
With William's continuous and robust guidance, Alice, who originally had mediocre talent, surpassed many in a short time. If this kept up, she'd be rendered useless without William's presence.
Apart from Zoey's "Cosmic Palm," Alice also wanted to learn unique techniques from others, like Lucien's "Stellar Divination Matrix." William simply handed her a book, telling her to learn it herself.
After all, mastering the Stellar Divination Matrix wasn't something that could be achieved overnight.
