Just as everyone was cheering excitedly...

Toby and Edessa's expressions became anxious, and their eyes revealed worry.

It wasn't that they didn't believe in Joelson's strength, but that Clemente was simply too powerful.

The two of them were people from the Orencia Empire and could be considered as having witnessed how Clemente had become a legend step by step along the way.

Clemente was not from the royal family of the Orencia Empire, nor was he from a large family like the two of them.

He was a true commoner!

However, this did not stop Clemente from rising. Instead, it made his legend seem even more glorious.

Clemente was originally born into an ordinary peasant family but, at birth, he revealed an extremely powerful talent.

On the day he had been born, countless magical elements had gathered in the sky above his home.

At the age of six, he had entered the Law Academy of the Orencia Empire.

At the age of fifteen, he had become a Tier 9 mage. At the age of twenty, he had become a saint. At the age of fifty, he had become a peak saint.

Then, another fifty years had passed. At the age of one hundred, he had become a deity.

This was an extremely terrifying speed, even in the Plane of Slaughter.

It had been nearly 100,000 years since the Orencia Empire had produced a deity-level expert who was 100 years old.

During this period of time, Clemente had defeated countless geniuses. Some of them were from the Orencia Empire, while others were from the other three great empires. In fact, even some of the geniuses from the Slaughter Divine Kingdom had lost to him.

Afterward, Clemente had become a demigod at the age of a thousand years.

When he was seven thousand years old, he had gone to the Plane of Destruction, wanting to enter the Supreme Academy to study.

Although he had failed in the end, when he had returned from the Plane of Destruction...

He was already a peak demigod!

In the entire Orencia Empire's younger generation, there was no one who was a match for him!

Even now, Clemente was already ten thousand years old, and he was still at the peak of the demigod level.

But no one dared to underestimate him.

Everyone knew that if Clemente wanted to...

He would have long ago become a god!

He had taken the initiative to suppress his level of cultivation to the peak of the demigod level, just so that before he could become a god, he could find an even more powerful path!

With his current true strength, he was already able to easily defeat ordinary early-stage god experts!

"Alas!"

Toby let out a long sigh. No matter how worried he was, it was useless.

The two of them had already begun their duel.

Their gazes were fixed on the dueling platform.

The two of them had already landed on the dueling platform but hadn't made their move yet.

Both of their faces were extremely calm, as though the person who was about to welcome a great battle wasn't them.

It was also as though both of them had absolute confidence in their own strength.

Clemente looked towards Joelson. He did not see a trace of panic in Joelson's eyes.

When other people met him, which one of them would not admit defeat directly? Even if there was an opponent with a firm heart, they would unconsciously feel fear towards him.

However, it was not the case for Joelson.

Clemente smiled. It had been a long time since he had met such an opponent.

Joelson looked at Clemente, his expression calm and without the slightest fluctuation.

Both of them were waiting for the other party to make the first move.

The surrounding people were also waiting in silence. Their eyes were fixed on the two of them, afraid that if they were absent-minded, the battle between the two of them would end in an instant.

Suddenly, everyone saw a figure on the dueling platform move first!

It was Clemente!

The number one genius of the Orencia Empire had actually made the first move?

Everyone was somewhat puzzled but, at the same time, they were also shocked.

Could it be that Joelson's strength was already so strong that even Clemente did not dare to underestimate him?

Clemente suddenly charged towards Joelson, his entire body turning into a stream of light as he shot over.

Wherever Clemente used his body to pass, the void would crack, revealing some dark colors!

Joelson looked at Clemente who was shooting towards him, his face calm. He didn't panic at all.

Slowly extending his left hand, he controlled his arcane power and opened an arcane-powered barrier in front of him.

Clemente directly crashed into the arcane-powered barrier.

Boom!

A loud sound echoed throughout the entire Imperial City Plaza.

Invisible space energy rippled out.

Everyone saw Clemente smash into the arcane power barrier.

The arcane-powered barrier didn't shatter under this massive force. It only trembled a few times before it calmed down.

Clemente felt a terrifying power coming from him, and he immediately retreated.

Joelson slowly raised his right hand. The fire laws and arcane mysteries converged, and countless black and red light dots lit up on the stage.

Clemente's eyes sparkled, revealing a hint of excitement.

He had accepted the challenge because he wanted to experience this special magic for himself!

The pupils of the onlookers also shrank.

This move again!

That unlucky arena lord had been struck by this attack!

How would Clemente respond?

The black-red flames in the sky gradually became dazzling, expanding.

Then, like a torrential rain, they suddenly smashed down towards Clemente!

Boom!

Countless enormous explosions rang out.

Smoke filled the air and dust flew everywhere.

The entire dueling platform was covered.

A god-level judge couldn't wait any longer. With a wave of his hand, he dispersed the smoke that enveloped the dueling platform.

Everyone clearly saw the situation on the dueling platform.

They saw that Joelson's left hand had formed a barrier in front of him, while his right hand was controlling countless meteors to smash down. His entire person seemed extremely relaxed.

And then they looked to the other side.

Clemente had blocked countless meteors, but he had not been defeated by this attack. No one was surprised.

After all, with Clemente's strength, it was impossible for him to be defeated in a single strike.

However, when everyone saw it clearly, they revealed a shocked expression. Their eyes were filled with disbelief.

Clemente's body was stained with the dust from the explosion.

His calm expression also changed slightly. He frowned slightly, as if he was surprised by the power of this attack.

Everyone rubbed their eyes.

What did they see?

Clemente actually appeared to be in a sorry state under this attack?

Although it was only the first move.

However, the number one genius of the Orencia Empire, the Blade of Orencia, actually appeared to be in a sorry state under the hands of a new genius that no one had ever heard of?

One had to know that ever since Clemente had returned from the Plane of Destruction, he had never shown such a sorry state in any battle!

Everyone was shocked, and some people even felt a little shaken.

Their previous thoughts might have been wrong.

This super-genius that had suddenly appeared had instantly killed two geniuses.

May have a chance against the number one genius of Orencia, Clemente?
