Celestial Era: The Rise of the Full-Time Enhancer
Chapter 158 Ambush

The Soul Pressure alarmed the elders of the Zemin Clan… As far as they know, Ludovic, their strongest Aura Knight, is not capable of exerting this much pressure if he released his own Aura Skills.

They could only look at each other as they could see the shock on their faces. Vincent hid his strength really well!

If Richard didn't challenge him into a duel, they would not realize that his attainment in Aura Skills has reached this level!

"This is incredible… I wonder if he has a top-grade Visualization Method…" Evrim muttered as she looked at Vincent with great interest.

Lesley, who was beside her, remained silent as she watched the battle seriously. Even she could feel the pressure coming from Vincent's Soul Pressure and Domain. They were already inside the VIP room at a high vantage point! Furthermore, she still had to circulate her mana to protect her body to avoid kneeling on the floor!

What more for those people watching below?!

They were obviously unable to prepare as many of them had no choice but to kneel! It was so embarrassing that they immediately burst with mana to counter the pressure.

"Tsk! How come the Mana Field didn't block that attack from Vincent?!"

"That's right… Why are we affected by that?"

​ "Hmph! What do you know? That's Soul Pressure… Obviously, Mana Field wouldn't be able to block it…"

"Blame yourself if you can't even resist that simple attack."

The crowd had varying opinions about Vincent's attack but there is only one thing they could agree on, Vincent's Soul Pressure is incredibly strong!

Those who weren't too familiar with the Aura Knights couldn't help but thinks of switching their profession.

They wanted to do this Soul Pressure as well! They wanted to appear dominating!

***

Vincent had no clue about the audience's clamor about his sudden show of force.

To be honest, he wasn't good at controlling his new power yet… It was simply because he didn't have the chance to try it in practice. He was just too busy with his level grinding!

Apparently, after the goddess poked his eyes, she didn't just make him blind but she also made his soul stronger! He didn't notice these changes at first because he was so depressed at his current predicament. Luckily, he thought of continuing his visualization method one night and realized the changes in his Aura.

Furthermore, Turhan's Soul Void Medallion allowed him to multiply his current Soul Force! The medallion he had given to him amplified his strength by several times…

Finally, he checked his own status and realized just how powerful he had become over the last few days.

His Pseudo-Celestial Energy is just too much…

Based on his various tests, he had roughly calculated that 5 units of mana are equal to 1 pseudo-celestial energy.

With such a huge difference in strength, once Vincent released his Soul Pressure, it wouldn't be surprising that everyone would be alarmed…

'So this is how it feels to explode with power…' Vincent muttered to himself after seeing that everyone has been affected by his careless control of Soul Pressure.

Nevertheless, Vincent smiled after feeling the result.

During this time, he realized that four people had actually resisted his pressure by using their own Aura! It means that these four were Aura Knights like him!

Of course, Richard wasn't included in that number.

Right now, he wasn't even able to properly stand.

"I guess I should just end this…" Vincent said as he finally made his move…

He walked slowly to confront Richard.

He wasn't using a movement technique or any fancy actions to approach Richard. He was simply walking with the help of his cane while he silently controlled his Soul Pressure to focus on his poor opponent.

Richard was going crazy… He has defenses against Soul Attacks since his sister knows that his opponent is an Aura Knight. Although it is unlikely that a young 3-Star Aura Knight could have a powerful soul since he hasn't cultivated very long, he still agreed to wear it. However, it was obvious that it didn't work at all against Vincent's technique. This is definitely a force above the 3-Star!

He looked at Vincent hatefully and cursed his entire family in his mind… He didn't know what to do at this point…

Tap… Tap… Tap…

Vincent's step was getting closer and closer as he continued to sweat profusely.

His every step was like a knife cutting at his heart leaving him unable to think properly. He has even forgotten to surrender!

As soon as Vincent was just two steps away from Richard, he raised his cane and was about to strike the latter.

The Arena Master sighed. He realized that Richard had no more tricks he could use or perhaps he decided not to use them anymore as it would probably be just a waste of time.

He already has a rough idea of Vincent's strength although he felt that there was more to it than this. That's right, he feels that Richard is just not strong enough to push Vincent to reveal more of his powers.

'Very well. The show is over… I should stop this now…' The Arena Master thought as he gathered energy in his palm to cushion Vincent's strike.

However, before he could even arrive in between the two to stop Vincent's strike, another person dashed forward and he was targeting Vincent from behind!

"Y-you!"

The Arena Master didn't realize this until it was too late! The man seems to be stronger than him and he even specializes in stealth!

Vincent was in danger!
