Chapter 322
Chapter 323 Minor Godwar
A blade of light, nearly 160 feet long, formed in Haul’s hand and slashed straight toward Joanna.
The sword was terrifying.
But at that exact moment, Joanna moved.
Symbiotic Fusion.
All five contract beasts merged into her body at once.
In an instant, her long hair turned silver-white. Her skin shone like gold. Her silver eyes spun like twin galaxies in motion.
Black-and-white wings burst open behind her. Black scales covered her upper body, while her lower half shifted into a powerful merfolk tail.
The black scales flowed like liquid, sliding down her arms and gathering in her hands. They hardened into a black shield and a long black sword.
The fusion forced the contract beasts to adjust to each other.
Troy gave up pure defense and became the sword and shield in Joanna’s hands.
Because he had something even stronger than defense.
Anti-Magic.
Joanna raised the shield. The massive lightsaber slammed into it and then shattered instantly.
Haul launched a fierce follow-up attack. Holy Judgment crashed down on Joanna again and again. Each strike was fully blocked.
Not a single point of damage landed.
Haul’s expression changed.
Joanna was stronger than he had imagined.
Joanna flapped her wings and shot forward, smashing straight into Haul.
Light exploded in every direction. Skills were triggered on both sides at the same time, but their reinforced bodies absorbed the impact.
1/4
The fight left the freshman students staring in shock.
They were all top talents, but Joanna was pulling farther and farther ahead of them.
“So this is a minor godwar p>
“The last time I saw her use Symbiotic Fusion was during the training camp test. When will I ever reach that level p>
By drawing in external energy, expanding the body, and pushing combat power close to divine levels, this state was known in the arena as Minor Godwar.
Anyone who could use it was a true powerhouse. At minimum, it required a Level 70.
Year 1 students shouldn’t have this ability. Even Year 3 students struggled to unlock it.
Before this match, many thought Joanna was just a summoner with too many pets, farming points easily.
Now, they finally understood her real strength.
Inside the arena, the battle turned brutal. Joanna and Haul weren’t just clashing with their skills. They were fighting hand-to-hand.
Close combat required years of training and real battlefield experience.
Haul was deeply shaken. Joanna was a Summoner. She should rely on spells, but her close combat skills were terrifying.
Even worse, the shield carried a power that made Haul uneasy.
Every time the shield or sword struck him, his Luminara Descent form dimmed. His massive light body felt sluggish, as if it could barely function.
Normally, Luminara Descent could last three hours.
Now, it felt like he couldn’t hold it for even thirty minutes.
A sharp, soul-deep pain exploded inside him.
Soul Storm!
Boom!
Haul screamed as his soul was shredded. His radiant body turned transparent, badly damaged.
Luckily, Absolute Adaptation activated at once, strengthening his soul defense and barely

holding off the storm.
But then, he met Joanna’s gaze.
Petrify!
In an instant, even his energy-formed body turned gray-white.
Crack. Crack. Haul froze solid. He turned into a statue.
At the same time, a desperate thought rose from deep inside him.
“Absolute Adaptation needs time. Her attacks are too strong. If this keeps going, I’ll die.
“No. I can’t lose.
“Self-detonate. If I blow myself up and kill her, I should still win based on turn order.
“Yes. That’s it p>
Outside the arena, the audience erupted.
They watched the giant-scale battle and argued loudly.
“That Holy Knight is insanely weak. Joanna is incredibly strong p>
“Is she really a Summoner? This is unreal p>
+5 Pearls
“If this keeps going, it turns into a stamina fight. Haul just keeps adapting. Joanna won’t be able to finish him p>
“In the end, she’s still missing one key talent p>
As they spoke, they noticed Haul’s twisted expression.
The faster thinkers understood immediately. Joanna had launched a soul attack.
Then came petrification.
Joanna suddenly retreated to the edge of the arena. She slammed her shield into the ground. The shield expanded, transforming into a massive black wall.
The next second, Haul’s body exploded.
BOOM!
Self-detonation.
3/4
Soul Storm, Petrify, and Dream Invasion.
A perfect combo.
Haul didn’t lose because he was weaker. He lost because he was outplayed.
He lost to ruthless, razor-sharp intelligence.
The explosion blinded everyone watching. When the smoke cleared, only one figure remained standing in the arena. Joanna.
