Chapter 394: Advancement test complete.

The reason Serhan wasn't worried about Blake's sword was that he was banking on the increased speed granted by the artifact.

If he was faster than Blake, then Ebony and Ivory wouldn't be a problem because it won't get to hit him, but things didn't go as planned.

Not only had he underestimated Blake's speed but he had no idea that void shift could be used in such a way.

(AN: A little recap for those who had forgotten why Blake is very fast. Blake's speed is greater than that of normal people mainly because of his 3 elements, more stars and pathways mean more power to his spells. Also, the Raiju breathing technique increases lightning-based spells once used.)

Once Blake grabbed Serhan by the neck everyone knew the fight was over.

"Let's take this out first." Blake reaped out the artifact on Serhan's neck, before slamming him head first on the ground.
