"We're similar?” Caspian was taken aback.

“That's right.” Kyle nodded, and he did not appear as if he was joking.

"How?" Caspian glanced at Solana in the distance and looked at Kyle again.

Caspian did not think there was anything similar between Solana and him.

“The momentum you both have when facing your enemies, the look in your eyes, and the pressure that you emitted,” Kyle answered with certainty, “I feel like she’s just a female version of you.” Once again, Kyle did not appear as if he was joking.

Caspian thought his expression was as if Kyle faced a formidable enemy.

Hence, the smile on Caspian’s face also gradually disappeared.

“I'll observe her.

Kyle, be careful.

Solana has an innate physique,” Caspian replied, nodding his head.

"Alright.

I'll try my best,” Kyle responded.

Caspian noticed that Kyle's tone was not as optimistic as before, and he even said he would try his best.

It was apparent that Kyle already felt immense pressure before the game even started.

In the ninth round of the competition, Caspian still knocked out his opponent easily.

After qualifying to the tenth round, Caspian hurriedly looked at Kyle and Solana’s match, which was still ongoing.

Kyle relied on his technique and a steady stream of formations to deal with Solana.

On the other hand, Solana’s battle style did not change along with Kyle's.

No matter what type of formations Kyle used, Solana would rush forward, move her arms to sweep the airflows, and blast out a terrifying punch.

After the Water-Condensing Formation slowed her down, Kyle immediately tossed out the Swirling Blades Formation.

The biting cold sword lights pierced through Solana’s arm, and blood splattered everywhere. However, Solana only staggered slightly, and she quickly stabilized her footing before blasting a punch at Kyle again.

The surrounding airflow collapsed suddenly, and there was a muffled noise from the Water- Condensing Formation, which exploded in a flash.

Kyle's face immediately fell, and he hurriedly jumped aside.

The spot where he stood just now directly exploded from Solana“s punch.

Not only was Solana’s arm still bleeding, but the sharp blade also slashed her waist and ribs area as she did not manage to dodge in time, and her top was soaked in blood too.

Nonetheless, Solana’s gaze was still calm, and she focused on Kyle and rushed toward him.

Her momentum was so strong that it pressurized the surrounding air, causing a loud explosion. Then, she blasted out a punch.

That scene indeed seemed familiar, and Caspian’s pupils constricted.

Kyle's face changed drastically, and he hurriedly waved an array map.

"Soil-Thickening Formation!”

Boom!

Just as a wall of soil emerged from the ground, Solana blasted it.

Then, the wall immediately shattered, and mud flew everywhere.

As Kyle was hit by the airwaves formed by her punch, his internal organs were twisted together, and it was so uncomfortable that he almost vomited blood.

At that time, Caspian finally faintly figured out the momentum that Kyle mentioned.

"Keep pushing forward even if you're hurting... This is indeed interesting,” Caspian thought as he looked at Solana, “However, she has a one-track mind.

Nonetheless, this type of technique is the best to restrain Kyle.”

As Kyle mainly relied on formations to attack, his martial skills were far inferior to other cultivators. The only martial art that he trained in was techniques to dodge his opponents.

Moreover, such an avoidance skill feared sticky opponents the most.

Once an opponent clung to him, Kyle would need to keep using his martial skill to avoid them.

As a result, not only would he not have a chance to showcase his formations, but Kyle would also be exhausting his spiritual Qi.

Kyle was secretly cursing nonstop.

He managed to enter the top fifty in the current competition, which was already a significant improvement.

However, who would not want to go a step further if they had the chance?

Unfortunately for Kyle, the opponent he met was Solana, who he could not knockdown.

No matter which formation he used, the Water-Condensing Formation that solidifies the void, the Soil-Thickening Formation for defense, the Swirling Blades Formation that attacks fiercely, and the Thistles and Thorns Formation that entangles the opponent, Solana completely turned a blind eye, and she kept pursuing Kyle.

During the whole match, Solana fought hard.

The arena was ruined from the blast of punches, and rubbles could be seen everywhere.

Solana’s dress was also torn in many places, and her long hair was somewhat messy.

However, the expression in Solana's eyes never changed, and the wounds on her did not seem to affect her at all.

Looking at Solana, Caspian recalled the scene in Evergreen Town.

Under Zephyr's torture, Solana’s body beneath her long skirt was full of bruises and welts, not to mention her skin and flesh injuries, but her muscles and internal organs must have suffered severe damage too.

Caspian remembered when he let Solana escape, where each step she took would leave a bloody footprint on the ground.

Hence, it could be imagined how critical her injuries were back then.

If it were other ordinary people, they would have been in so much pain that they could not walk, and even breathing would be some sort of torture.

Yet, Solana only gritted her teeth, and the pain only flashed in her eyes before she quickly suppressed them

The silhouette in Caspian’s memory merged with the person in the arena, and Caspian could not help but sigh.

“She's just a girl... What exactly did the Gibson family do to her..."

As Caspian said that, Kyle used his remaining spiritual Qi to activate the final piece of the array map. “The Desolated Desert Heat Formation!”

Boom!

The flames erupted like a volcano, bursting from under Solana’s feet, and instantly engulfed her. The raging fire and the scorching heat suddenly forced everyone around the ring to look away, and they kept retreating, unable to watch the match directly or get closer to them.

Two seconds...

Four seconds...

There was no movement among the raging fire.

Then, Kyle breathed out a long sigh of relief.

“I finally won!”

Kyle put in much effort before just to seize a chance to showcase the Desolated Desert Heat Formation, and it seemed that it was a success.

However, an ear-piercing sound as if the air spun.

Bang!

The bright flame that was originally burning suddenly revolved in mid-air and turned into a billowing vortex as if being pulled by an invisible force.

The next second, the center of the vortex sank, and it abruptly exploded.

Then, the loud noises continued as flames flew everywhere.

Soon, a fist burst out of the formation.

The surrounding billowing scorching waves of flames separated like tides.

Solana stepped on the blood and fire with a blank expression, emerging from the blaze.

Her face was stained with dirt, the tip of her hair curled and turned yellow as they were scorched, and some parts of her clothes were even burned.

However, Solana still turned a blind eye to that.

In her eyes, there was only Kyle, her opponent.

“The Imperial Jail Deity Physique!” With a clear shout, Solana blasted a violent punch.

Kyle's face drastically changed, whereas Caspian's eyes flashed with brilliant lights.

The surrounding spectating disciples all gasped.

The light in the ring seemed to have completed light and dark alternation at that moment.

Then, Kyle could be throwing up a mouthful of blood as he fell out of the arena.

Solana stood in the ring with the flames still burning behind her.

As the wind blew wildly, her long hair danced in the air.

Even though her wounds still bled and she did not wipe off the bloodstains on her face, Solana stood straight as always.

Then, Solana looked at Kyle, who slowly got up beneath the stage, and she bowed.

“Thank you for the guidance, Kyle.”

As Caspian watched the expressionless Solana, who just won under everyone's watchful eyes, he seemed to understand what Kyle said before. S~ᴇaʀᴄh the FɪndNovᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

“If that's the case, she might have a chance to be among the top ten.” Caspian went through the competition schedule again.

There was only one more match to decide the top ten of the current competition.
