Chapter 314 Stubbornness

"Ha... Ha..." Jay panted heavily. He had a hard time regaining his focus. His vision had deteriorated so much that he couldn't even see Rafael's face anymore.

'My vision is already blurry. If he relies on speed, I won't be able to follow his movement. Still, I have to swing my sword. As long as there is an opponent standing before me, I have to keep swinging my blade. I can't stop yet!' Jay muttered inwardly.

It was already hard to even stand up at this point.

However, Jay still pointed his sword at Rafael.

Rafael didn't realize it yet, but he was actually smiling, acknowledging Jay.@@@@

Rafael could see that the talent Jay had might not be comparable to Clovis. He had no hidden trump card because he was a rather straightforward guy. He just kept working hard until he could do it.

But because of that reason, he wanted to settle this match in a straight way. Whoever was knocked out earlier would be the loser.

He paid respect to that hard work and planned to defeat him in this battle.

Rafael rushed forth. He only had a few swings left in him, so he better defeat Jay before he runs out of steam.

Jay remained in his position, looking at the blurry figure. Seeing the sword coming from above, Jay did the same thing as earlier using his beast soul.

Clink!

The clicking sound echoed, but the previous strike might just be luck or Rafael had gotten used to it, but Rafael was only pushed back by three meters.

"Kh!" Jay gritted his teeth. His arms had gone numb. Knowing that the strike was too weak compared to the last one, Jay approached Rafael this time.

Rafael waved his sword diagonally this time, noticing that Jay's movement had slowed down. This strike would definitely throw him off balance.

However, Jay suddenly fell right before the sword could reach him.

His opponent was the same. Jay showed similar determination. People believed that Clovis was more talented than Jay. People thought that Clovis had more trump cards.

Yet despite his 'mediocre' strength, he still chose to fight. People couldn't help but want to ask, 'Why would you go for such length? You are less talented, so why push yourself so hard? You won't be able to keep up with your friend.'

Everyone wanted to believe it was normal for them to lose to people more talented than them.

However, Jay only showed one thing. It was his stubbornness. Just one swing. If that wasn't enough, he would swing once more. Then another swing... another swing... He would swing his sword so that he would be one swing closer to his goal.

Everyone could do it.

'Why did I give up back then?'

'Could I be in a higher position had I not indulged myself in other things aside from improving myself?'

'I should have practiced more...'

Various thoughts appeared in everyone's mind. Jay's action had made them realize it was obvious why they couldn't compare themselves with the abnormal Jay. They simply didn't do enough.

A guy bit his lips before shouting at the top of his lungs. "Win, Jay!"

The others started cheering because of him.

Jay could only hear a ringing sound in his head. But it didn't matter. He only had one job.

The opponent was still standing.

"Haaa!" Jay rushed forward, swinging his sword.

"I won't lose!" Rafael also roared and leaped forth.
