Chapter 243 Part Four: The Year-End Competition
(From MC's perspective)
Little Star Gate High School,
Spectators were stunned inside the star battle platform arena. Some were confused but slowly everyone started to realise apart from the four divisions of the school. There is one extra division that was added to the school.
Two new students from the special class division were registered for this competition.
Eric Marsh's name is shown on the screen. This cleared the confusion among the people. And some media houses started to cover what's good about the new special division.
Inside the new viewing room,
"Ha...Ha...Ha...," Chairman Benjamin burst into joyful laughter.
One of the reasons is that he made this event stream online. Because of the new special class. After seeing Eric Marsh's challenge. He is quite sure that the new class will receive great attention from the public.
Chairman Benjamin also believes that this move will attract a lot more students to his school next year. And slowly in a few years, the strength of the new class will be similar to other divisions.
When he realized that, he cracked a wide grin.
Beside him, the headmaster Chester Nixon was also satisfied after seeing the crowd's response.
But unlike the chairman Benjamin. His expectations were more. He wants Eric Marsh to defeat the D-rank winner Miley Reese. If this happens this will further increase the reputation of the special class.
These thoughts were buried in his heart and didn't discuss them with chairman Benjamin. He wants Chairman Benjamin to witness the surprise himself.
Participants area,
Seeing the silent brown-haired student, my eyes gleamed with a twinkle.
"System, probe Eric Marsh's status," I instructed the system mind.
["Ding! The Host's voice is recognised"]
["Ding! The Command is executed"]
[Status Panel]
[Target's Name – Eric Marsh]
[Magic Power– Human Stove]
[Mage Level – Level 1 Limiter]
[Talent – Middle Low]
[Color – Pale Green]
[Strength – 45]
[Speed – 43]
[Stamina – 42]
[Vitality – 43]
[Intelligence – 23]
[Soul Power – 21]
[Constitution – 22]
[Mana Power -24]
[Core Status – (36%) ]
[Spells – 2 ]
>> 1. Blood Fist 2. Blood Burning
[Mental Method – Blood burning art(Middle-Grade Method) ]
A wide status panel appeared in front of my eyes. Immediately my gaze fell on the talent. "Human Stove," my eyes widened in surprise.
This talent appears to be a variant of a physique wizard. Then I quickly looked into other details. His attributes were stronger than I had expected. On top of it, his core development has reached 36.
To be honest, he can easily join the A rank division or at least B rank division, if not for his unique talent "Human Stove"
But when I looked at his spells and mental method again. I don't know why? I feel he seems to be more in line with the person mentioned by fatty.
A person who can raise his own strength by burning blood. I became more suspicious of him after knowing Eric Marsh's second spell "Blood burning."
I have a vague feeling in my heart that he is that person. But what is more surprising is that he doesn't have to use his second spell to defeat Miley Reese. Because his normal attributes had already surpassed hers.
A quick glint flashed in my eyes when I realized that. I'm looking forward to his duel. I can't believe our new headmaster had found another gem beside that girl.
But it is a pity, Eric Marsh has only a middle-grade method. It is one of the drawbacks of being a special user. It is very hard to come across a suitable higher-rank method.
Eric can reach a level -3 rank with his middle-grade method. But above level-3 rank is very doubtful.
Then after dispelling the panel, I sighed inwardly. I'm glad that for my gravitational power there are no such disadvantages. There are already predecessors in history who had walked the path of gravity magic.
Otherwise, I wouldn't have gotten the gravity ark method. Then retracting my thoughts, I looked at Eric Marsh. If not for me, Eric would have been a dark horse in the tournament.
Time passed,
The duels for the C rank division are going smoothly. Compared to the D rank division, the wizards of the C rank division were much better.
Though the talents of C rank division students were mediocre, compared to the trash talents of D rank division, it is fine.
One by one, the duels of the C rank division are coming to an end. Finally, after a few hours, it's time for the ranking duel.
Looking at the duels, I felt much better. This time the duels were way better compared to the last day.
Seeing that, it is going to be a ranking duel in a few seconds. My gaze slightly fell on Miley Reese. After the declaration of the C rank division title winner.
The challenge duel will officially start. I saw not only me but the media houses were also covering two of them. Seeing that a wide smile spread on my face.
Time passed in a blink of an eye. Finally the last match of the ranking duels.
Seeing that a quick glint flashed in my eyes. Because both of the final contenders were weapon-type wizards. One has a short iron sword and the other one has an iron broadsword.
What's more amazing is that both had similar strengths. And their swords were iron type. I don't know who will emerge as a winner.
When the duel started both began to charge against each other.
Clang Clang
A metallic collision sound resonated throughout the area.
Both the wizards clashed against each other fiercely. Their collision caused huge sparks to spread around the duel stage. Fortunately, the silver screen protected everyone from the sparks.
Slashing, Stabbing, Vertical cut, horizontal cut.
Both wizards tried many moves but both of them seemed as equal to the other. This will again lead to a similar situation, where the loser will run out of mana eventually.
Seeing that, I revealed a bitter smile on my face. Both of them were good. But I feel the one with the long sword will emerge as a winner. His name is Tom Baltimore.
Tom Baltimore seems to relax while using his attack-type weapon long sword. I doubt he has consumed excessive mana. The next second, I decided to check using the probe function.
When I saw his status panel, I'm amazed to see that he didn't have that much consumption. I revealed a small smile on my face. The result is already clear. It will be a matter of time before Tom Baltimore is declared a winner.
Time passed in a blink of an eye.
After twenty minutes, the final announcement was made. Tom Baltimore was declared as C rank division title winner.
[Congratulations to Tom Baltimore for his win.]
[The next duel is between Miley Reese and Eric Marsh]
When the announcement was made the crowd broke out in loud cheers.
Seeing that, I don't know whether everyone is cheering for the winner or they are looking forward to the next duel.
But I'm looking forward to seeing whether the rumor mentioned by fatty is going to be true or not.
The fighting stage,
Right after the announcement, Miley Reese entered the stage with a dark expression. Earlier, she asked her class teacher about the situation.
But unfortunately, her teacher is as helpless as she was. She has no other choice but to face the trash opponent Eric Marsh.
Fortunately, in these few hours, she recovered to her peak state. She didn't mind going against one more opponent now.
She stood at one end of the stage and waited for her opponent to enter
After a couple of seconds, Eric Marsh entered the duel stage without any expressions on his face. Seeing that, Miley stood on the opposite side and he chose the other end.
He remembered the advice of the class teacher who is none other than the current headmaster of the school Chester Nixon.
"Teacher wanted me to win this duel no matter what," Eric Marsh thought to himself.
He has seen the previous duels of Miley Reese. In his opinion, she is not that strong. He can easily defeat her without having to use the second spell at all.
On the other hand, feeling the gaze of Eric. Miley Reese immediately gave a cold snort, "Harumph."
"I will thrash you out in a minute," her eyes gleamed with a cold glint.
Inside the new viewing room,
Chester Nixon's eyes gleamed with expectation.
At this moment, he felt all other eyes on him. Inside the room, the management people were seated. Including the chairman, everyone has pinned high hopes on the new special class.
He just hopes everything goes according to plan. As far as he knows Miley Reese won't be able to withstand the attack from Eric Marsh.
But like Eric, he too doesn't want Eric to use his second spell. It would be much better if Eric finished the duel as soon as possible.
Seeing him spacing out, chairman Benjamin asked, "What are you thinking?"
"Huh, it's nothing," Chester Nixon said.
Chairman Benjamin then shifted his gaze towards the duel stage. He has very little expectation for this duel. He just hopes that a kid named Eric will stick much longer inside the duel stage.
