The duel had reached its climax as the two fighters were already in their peak condition.
Julian had already used his [Immortal Gate: Stage 5] on him, coupled with [Stone Skin] and [Fire Aura]. Three buffs were being used at the same time.
Having three buffs activated at the same time was something not many acolytes were able to do. It required full control of different elements and concentration in order to ensure both elements would not escape the caster's control. In Julian's case, it was his earth and fire elements.
Thanks to them, the duel slowly ground to a halt. Although Julian had less battle power, the [Stone Skin] defensive buff and its natural strength was more than enough to make up the difference.
They kept trading blow after blow, but neither side budged.
Clank! Clank!
