Chapter 154 Ice Age
As Xander's Dark Inferno Dragon, Vortex, stood tall and proud, Orion couldn't help but feel a twinge of admiration for the beast. Vortex was undoubtedly a powerful creature, with a sleek black body and fiery red eyes that seemed to pierce through him.
Orion had faced many formidable opponents in the past, but he knew that Vortex would be a true challenge. The dragon's sheer size and power were intimidating, and Orion knew that he couldn't afford to underestimate it.
However, as he looked at Vortex, Orion couldn't help but compare it to his own beast, Nova. Nova was a creature of immense power, with abilities that surpassed anything he had ever encountered before. He had trained him for years, honing his skills and abilities to perfection.
Despite Vortex's impressive appearance, Orion knew that it was still no match for Nova. He was simply on another level, with powers that could take down even the strongest of opponents.
Orion's mind was made up. He wasn't going to play around this time. He didn't need to waste his time anymore.
Xander, on the other hand, was growing increasingly annoyed by Orion's calm demeanor. He had expected his opponent to be intimidated by Vortex, but instead, Orion seemed unfazed by the dragon's power.
With a cocky smirk on his face, Xander taunted Orion, his voice filled with arrogance. "What's wrong, Orion? Are you scared? I thought you were supposed to be one of the strongest beast trainers around. Or are you just a coward?"
Orion remained silent, refusing to be goaded by Xander's taunts. He knew that he had to stay focused if he wanted to win this battle. He couldn't afford to let his emotions get the best of him.
Xander continued to mock Orion, his words dripping with sarcasm. "Oh, I see. You're not scared. You're just overconfident. You think that your precious Nova is invincible, don't you? Well, we'll see about that."
Orion still refused to respond, keeping his eyes fixed on Vortex. He knew that Xander was trying to rile him up, but he wasn't going to fall for it. He had a plan, and he was going to stick to it.
Xander's frustration was palpable. He had hoped to rattle Orion with his words, but the silence was only making him angrier. He could feel his control slipping away, and he knew that he needed to do something to regain the upper hand.
With a snarl, Xander shouted out a command to Vortex, signaling the start of the battle. The dragon roared, and the ground shook beneath them as it prepared to attack. Orion and Nova stood ready, their eyes locked on their opponent.
Xander knew that he had to use Vortex's full power if he wanted to win this battle. He commanded Vortex to use its Dark Dragon's Breath, an incredibly powerful attack that would cause immense damage to its target.
"Vortex, use your Dark Dragon's Breath!" Xander shouted, his voice echoing through the arena.
Vortex responded with a deafening roar, and a dark energy began to gather in its mouth. The audience watched in awe as the dragon unleashed a powerful blast of black fire, which streaked towards Nova with incredible speed.
As Vortex unleashed its powerful attack, Orion remained calm, his eyes focused on Nova. Without a moment's hesitation, he commanded his beast to use one of its most devastating attacks.
"Nova, use Ice Age!" Orion shouted, his voice ringing through the arena.
As Orion's Nova unleashed its powerful Ice Age attack, the arena was suddenly engulfed in a blizzard of snow and ice. The temperature dropped dramatically, causing the ground to freeze over and the air to become thick with frost. The once-roaring crowd fell silent as they watched in awe as the entire arena transformed into a winter wonderland.
The ice-covered ground sparkled in the dim light, reflecting the rays of the sun that streamed in through the high windows. The seats were now covered in a blanket of snow, and the air was filled with the sound of cracking ice as the cold began to take hold.
The dark clouds that had been hovering overhead were now gone, replaced by a clear, crisp blue sky. The only sounds that could be heard were the soft whispers of the wind, the crunching of snow underfoot, and the occasional roar of the beasts battling in the center of the arena.
The transformation of the arena was both breathtaking and terrifying. The spectators huddled in their seats, watching in awe as the ice and snow continued to spread, wondering what kind of beast could cause such a sudden and drastic change in the environment.
As the Ice Age spell took effect, the entire arena was transformed into a frozen wasteland, with icicles hanging from the stands and frost covering the ground. The audience gasped in shock at the sudden transformation, while Xander and Vortex looked on in disbelief.
Vortex had been in the midst of unleashing its powerful Dark Dragon's Breath when the Ice Age spell hit. The black flames that had been gathering in its mouth were suddenly extinguished, replaced by a coating of ice that encased the dragon's jaws.
Xander could feel his anger rising as he watched his prized beast become frozen solid. He had never encountered an opponent with such powerful ice abilities before, and he knew that this battle was far from over.
"Unleash yourself from that ice, Vortex!" Xander shouted, his voice echoing through the frozen arena. "Don't let this opponent's tricks get the better of you!"
But it was no use. The ice coating on Vortex's jaws was too thick and too cold, and the dragon was unable to break free. It was clear that Orion's Ice Age spell had caught Xander off guard, and the young trainer was struggling to come up with a plan.
The Ice Age skill that was released by Nova was too incredible instantly, Froze Vortex made him immobile. The audience were shocked to their core after seeing the skill.
