The Place Where Everything Begins

At first glance, the tumbling Goron's speed easily exceeded 100 mph...

If Jeremy were to be hit directly, his body would either be blown towards the wall heavily or become a meat paste under the rolling rocky Goron.

*Rururururu*

The big rolling rock came towards Jeremy swiftly, so he hurriedly jumped away from its path, not intending to chip his spear blade by attacking the spinning Goron just yet.

*Flap* *Flap*

The wind shear rushed past Jeremy like a small hurricane, causing his black cloak to flap along with the gusting wind...

*Boom!*

Then the sound of the Goron's rocky body hitting against the stone wall rang out within the arena, causing some cracks and dents on the stone wall.

*Crumble* *Crumble*

Some stone pieces fell to the ground from the cracks...

At this time, the young Goron, who had rolled on the ground earlier, suddenly stood up from its curling position.

Then the yellow skin creature turned to face Jeremy, who stood in the middle area of the arena. After that, the muddled Goron shook its head left and right to clear its mind, stunned by the impact earlier.

After a few seconds of shaking its round head from side to side, the young Goron's eyes finally gained back the clarity. Then it stared at Jeremy standing at the distance briefly.

Without further ado, the young outlander rushed towards Jeremy quickly, intending to enter a melee battle once again. Simultaneously, Jeremy also dashed towards the approaching Goron swiftly.

Not long after, when they were close enough to one another, Jeremy suddenly canceled his momentum by putting his left leg in the front while retracting the spear backward...

*Scrooch...*

Consequently, Jeremy's left boot created a scrubbing noise against the yellow soil...

When he was finally in a correct posture and stance, Jeremy promptly thrust the spear forward powerfully, as the dashing momentum earlier seemed to be added within his right hand, causing the spear thrust to be more powerful than it usually was...

*Fwhoosh*

The spear blade traveled in the air at sound speed, creating a subtle supersonic wave in the still air...

Simultaneously, the young Goron had already been prepared for Jeremy's thrust even before it came running towards him.

In fact, the creature was long ready for the spear slash which it had faced earlier, but the spear thrust like this would do, too.

At this time, the young Goron promptly used its left arm to shield the front view and controlled the rocky hides to extend 'outward', making it look like a proper, round rocky shield now.

Consequently...

*Fwhoosh*

*Clang!!*

*Crack*

The spear blade and rocky shield clashed against one another loudly, creating a clanging sound... followed by the sound of an object being broken at almost the same time.

Right now, the two sides came into a standstill from the powerful exchange earlier while standing around four meters away from each other.

Then...

*Clatter* *Clatter*

A small piece of the said broken object eventually dropped to the ground with the clattering noises...

"Woahhh!!!"

"Kill him!!!"

"Want more blood!!!"

"KILLL!!!"

Like always, the cheering sounds from the audiences echoed out loudly within the rip-off Zodia Arena, causing the atmosphere to be heated all the time of battling...

'The hell... It does not chip at all... It is fucking broken now.' Jeremy thought bitterly upon seeing his spear blade being broken in half.

Then Jeremy turned his head to look at the Goron's shield and thought further,

'How can a rock withstand the steel's hardness anyway? Well... at least there is a small hole on its rocky hides now.' Jeremy pacified himself with some nonsensible excuse.

Unfortunately, the gaping hole behind the young Goron's hand wasn't deep enough to cause any real damage to its smooth yellow skin at all.

At this moment, when the Goron saw the enemy's spear blade was broken in half from the previous clash, it suddenly smiled in delight...

Then the delighted Goron promptly swung its right hand in Jeremy's direction, intending to give a surprise fatal blow when the latter was still distracted from his spear blade being broken.

*Whoosh*

A stone shard flew towards Jeremy, whom stood only five meters away swiftly...

If it were other people, they would have been hit undoubtedly, but Jeremy was wholly prepared for the enemy's ranged attack.

So, he only sidestepped lightly to the left side at the exact moment before the Goron swung its right arm.

Jeremy had already predicted its attack's trajectory, as the attack had a very high probability of being aimed towards his head or body, so doing a sidestep was one of the best choices he could do right now...

*Whoosh*

As predicted, the sharp stone piece flew past Jeremy's head dangerously, as he even heard the whooshing sound created from the object moving through the air very clearly...

"What the...?"

The young Goron exclaimed in shock after seeing its surprise attack being dodged so easily.

But it had no time to be shocked for long because the black-cloaked Jeremy had already come rushing towards it swiftly...

As the distance between the two was only five meters or so, Jeremy had to take only two or three steps before he was in the attacking range of his spear.

So...

*Whoosh*

Jeremy swung his 'broken' spear towards the yellow skin creature's round head swiftly...

At the same time, the young Goron also raised the rocky shield to defend against the incoming spear strike.

*Clang*

The clanging noise resounded out again...

Meanwhile, the young Goron scrunched up its face while preparing to give Jeremy a powerful punch by using its right rocky fist, but...

*Whoosh*

Another spear strike came from another direction of the previous attack as Jeremy had done a roundhouse spear slash, utilized by the deflected momentum earlier...

When the yellow skin creature saw such a horrific attack coming towards it swiftly, it hurriedly lifted the rocky shield on its left hand to defend against the human's attack once again.

*Clang!!*

"Oraaa!!"

The young Goron gritted its teeth strongly while letting out a strange noise 'Oraaa' from its mouth...

Meanwhile, the short and plump creature flew two meters obliquely to the right side from the sheer impact.

*Huuu...*

At this time, Jeremy also heaved out a long breath after unleashing such powerful spear strikes with all his might continuously...

'Still... I cannot hurt it at all...'

Jeremy thought helplessly while looking at the skidding Goron.
