My Soul card is a Reaper

Claire eventually managed to stop the harmless attack by piercing her heavy sword into the ground and tightly grabbing it. Syllia let out a big smile in satisfaction.

As for Azzy, he flew towards her without resisting it, surprising Leah who thought of the reverse situation.

Just as the distance between Azzy and Aurelia decreased from ten meters to almost a few feet, the former suddenly threw a punch in the air while using soul energy.

Looking at fist-shaped dark energy, Aurelia\'s face changed. She immediately realized the uniqueness of this soul energy. Even though she\'s in the Supreme Realm, she felt a threat from a mere Elite realm attack. She quickly sidestepped and dodged the energy fist.

As a result, the suction force was canceled and Azzy successfully landed on the ground. Meanwhile, the energy attack that missed the target hit a lamp post behind the old woman and it was destroyed but it is of no issue to anyone here.

"Your soul energy is very unique and powerful, far potent than any children of Heaven that I have seen." Aurelia gave a comment, this time, in a sober tone, and then, looked at Claire, "I guess you are a type to face the things head-on face to face, a born fighter. A bit unconventional from a light attribute user though."

The most surprised on the field was Leah, who didn\'t expect her teacher will praise both of them that much. She started training under her when she was four. In 12 years of training, never once her teacher gave such treatment to her. She would always criticize her mistakes.

Leah could understand if Azzy got praised because Excalibur acknowledged his skills, moreover, he was also the holder of a Celestial grade beast, but Claire too? It\'s a little bit hard to swallow it now that she had developed bitter feelings against this princess of the southern island kingdom.

"Boy, step aside for a bit. I want to test the girl\'s ability. Then, we\'ll get to you." Aurelia now fixed her eyes on Claire.

Against the Supreme Realm Expert, Claire didn\'t hold back at all except for using the Rank-7 Shield that she received as a reward for winning the Champions League.

The battle lasted roughly for ten minutes and Claire was panting heavily while supporting herself with the sword as all of her Soul Orb was almost empty. Since it was a rule that she can\'t recover her soul energy using a recovery card, Aurelia stopped the spar and gave a satisfactory nod to her, "You are indeed what I thought you are, a warrior. It\'s a rare quality to be seen in female Arcana Masters but then again, you are from Lefeuvre family after all."

Aurelia took a glance at Syllia while she said that. She doesn\'t know the two girls, but she once fought against one of their ancestors some thousands of years ago. So, when she saw Claire turned out to be as fierce as the one she fought, Aurelia appeared to be impressed with her.

Leah couldn\'t help but become uncomfortable as she was hearing the words of praises from her teacher. Why? She couldn\'t understand why her teacher looks high on someone who was weaker than her and have far less potential than her.

And Aurelia\'s next statement pierced her heart, which made her resolve even stronger.

"If I\'m not restricted to this kingdom or you aren\'t a princess of direct in line to the throne, I would have loved to take you as my disciple," Aurelia said to Claire, looking straight into her eyes.

Claire was taken aback by her assessment and was also happier inside. She couldn\'t help but glance at Leah who was stunned at the moment, not being able to believe her ears. Leah, for the second time in her life, became jealous of someone, the first one being Azzy.

"Thank you." She gracefully bowed to her before returning to her sister while Azzy took the stage.

"Now, it\'s your turn." After pointing at him, Aurelia once again took the vase from her storage card and took a sip, turning into a drunken woman almost instantly. "Giff allll you\'ve gottt" (Give all you have got)

"She\'s serious about this." Leah put aside her useless thoughts in respect to Claire and put her entire concentration on the battle.

Azzy, of course, wouldn\'t give his all. He has a lot of secrets to hide. But he wouldn\'t shy away from using the skills that were known to the public.

"Vajra, come out."

The black lightning wolf jumped out of his soul card and bared its fangs at Aurelia. Because of its pitch black fur, the others wouldn\'t notice any changes but it is easy for a Supreme Realm expert who is only a step away from reaching peak stage.

Aurelia didn\'t know how Vajra looked before but she could not only see a black gem on its forehead but also sense a tremendous amount of power inside the gem. "What kind of power is this?" A deep frown appeared on her face while she wobbled left and right. "This feels similar to the one inside that energy attack but compared to the purity of the energy inside this gem, that one is like 99% diluted. But, it feels too negative…"

Aurelia was so into studying it that for a moment, she failed to even notice an attack from Azzy from behind until it landed on her.

Of course, after reaching rank-9, her body is like a diamond.  If she can be hurt by something like this, then, it will be a joke. However, she did fly away in the air before she get back to her senses and smoothly landed on the ground.

Azzy didn\'t expect that his attack would land on her but he could care less about it at the moment and unleashed the soul skills one after other.

<strong>"Soul skill: Eyes of God"</strong>

<strong>"Vajra, unleash the soul skill: Extreme Bite"</strong>

<strong>"Soul skill: Rise of the Undead"</strong>

All of a sudden, his eyes turned pitch black with no visible pupils. And just like every time, no soul power was consumed in the process. Only the Reaper\'s soul skills (excluding the weapons) have such exception.

Meanwhile, Vajra\'s canines grew sharper and larger, protruding out of the mouth. Black lightning was dancing over its teeth as well as its feet.

*Hisssss*

At the same moment, a four-headed Hydra appeared on the ground. Along with low-rank-5 platinum grade beast, several skeletal beasts of lower rank also appeared.

*Thud*

Just when the spectators were about to be amazed by the sheer number of beasts that Azzy summoned, to everyone\'s surprise, all of them were fallen onto the ground. While Vajra seems to be completely fine, the skeletal Hydra seems like it was facing trouble with even raising its heads.

"That\'s right. This place is different." Realization dawned upon Azzy.

For a moment, he had forgotten that he was fighting on a field where gravity is higher. Upon realizing it, he felt like he made a fool out of himself and was embarrassed inside.

Thankfully here, his expressionless face helped him while he unsummoned the undead army.

Syllia who was standing on the sideline said to her sister, "Bad move. He should have let them stay here and train along with him. While they don\'t get any stronger because of the natural limitations placed upon a beast\'s body, they could still get used to this type of environment. In the Arcana world, there are many places where gravitation force is abnormal. It\'ll become helpful later on."

"I see…" Claire nodded indicating that she understood.

Meanwhile, the sparring session resumed.

With their peak speed, Azzy and Vajra charged forward. Within a second, they covered the distance between them and the drunken opponent.
