There is no honour in dying

Ayaan saw Victor changing target and going after Isobel instead of him and curled his lips into a disdainful sneer. "Huh!" while he glanced at Victor, Shawth arrived in front of him, holding a weapon like a sickle, and attacked. Ayaan saw the incoming attack and fought back, blocking the blow of the strange weapon from his sabre. This man was at the peak of the Larva Realm and unlike Victor he was a veteran in duals.

Though caught unprepared, Ayaan acted reflexively and used his own ice element and froze the melting ice below him before he lost the balance of his body. "Nice!" exclaimed Shawth when he saw Ayaan avoiding his trap easily. "You are also an ice elemental cultivator?"

"Boom!"
