Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 2001

The Mighty Beast Palm was fierce, each strike heavier than the last. Andrew's Inferno Strike was just as intense, radiating an unbearable heat. After a round of brutal exchanges, Franklin's bald head was drenched in sweat, his face flushed as if scorched by fire.

Meanwhile, Andrew remained calm and steady, his breathing unchanged.

Franklin's brows furrowed deeply as he realized Andrew was no pushover, and he had underestimated him. His earlier attacks had mostly been tests, yet he did not realize Andrew had been doing the same.

Facing a master like Franklin, Andrew constantly felt as if the second seal inside him might break at any moment.

"Mr. Gurney, let's take him together!" Scarlett's cold voice cut in as she joined the fight.

Franklin did not refuse, and this was no time to play it cool. Against someone like Andrew, they needed all the help they could get.

Even facing two opponents, Andrew remained incredibly fierce and aggressive. He raised both palms to clash directly with Scarlett and Franklin's combined energy cores. A tremendous force exploded between all three martial artists, and waves of white energy burst outward in every direction.

Andrew let out a low roar as veins bulged across his face. His true energy surged like a raging tide through his arms, flowing toward Scarlett on his left.

"Watch out!" Franklin shouted, but it was too late.

Scarlett felt as if a mountain had crashed into her chest. She screamed, coughed up blood, and was thrown backward.

Franklin's face twisted. "Die!"

He unleashed all of his energy and inner strength in one go. Andrew grunted, forced back several steps, and Franklin immediately pressed forward, knowing that every second counted.

Andrew's expression turned ice-cold. Tilting his head to avoid Franklin's aerial strike, he snapped upright, grabbing Franklin's ankle from below.

Franklin twisted midair, kicking at Andrew's face again and again, forcing him to retreat while his energy core poured out power to keep him going.

"Let's see how long you can last!" Franklin sneered as he leapt back to gain distance.
