27 Chapter 27 (1/2)
Irvene's point of view
The first level students is scattered through the huge battle field with their own battle clothes.The instructor once explained that they are wearing a bracelet they called a watch, and it is an invention of one of the seventh level students. They are indeed smart. I didn't know how they came up with that idea.
He said that it could record the points of the students based on the number of the killed monster. That way, they are all aware of their points.
Not long after, the monster started appearing in all directions. I think its size is small for a competition, and has same appearances butdifferent colors. They didn't waste their short 30 minutes time, and launch their weapons at those monsters.
They had a hard time attacking those tiny monsters that goes around in circles, and its speed is far incredible.
”It is so fast!” I heard Sid said.
”I wonder if we'll encounter that monsters too. It will irritate me,” Meryll followed.
Some students ended up in the puddle, while following through those speed. I heard that it isn't that hard for the first level students last year. They even started to fear that the first elimination rounds would be harder than what they expected.
The element users only gained a little advantage. Their control towards the elements is still weak, thus they are having a hard time like the non-element users. The other students came up with a strategy to kill more monsters. The instructors didn't complain. They let them build a strategy even if it's an individual elimination rounds. I think that it's a good idea.
It didn't last long and that time, the monsters started to disappear into thin air. Even the plants and puddles were now gone, leaving only the students who are drenched in mud all over their bodies.
”The Highest Monster Killed elimination rounds for the first level students was finished!” The instructor announced the scores afterward. The highest one got 400 points. That student has a good control of her wind element powers and managed to score a lot on her own.
Those students who came up with a strategy had rank above 70.Then, the students are given enough time to clean themselves.
***
The second level students and third level students' elimination rounds already ended. Like they expected, the monsters were bigger, faster, and powerful than those of the monsters from first levels' elimination rounds.
They're more experienced than the first level students, so they managed to get above 400 points even though they encountered more formidable monsters. The one who got the highest score in the third level got 800 points. It's twice higher than the latter.
”The next elimination rounds! The Highest Monster Killed for the fourth level students!” The instructors set up the field with the same small plants and puddle.
The four of us stayed at a short distance to each other.
”Don't reveal your true abilities. Kill monsters based on a fourth level student powers,” Vaughn whispered.
We nodded at him. I could do it, since half of my powers are already suppressed by my silver ring. As usual, to the eyes of the others, it only looks a normal jewelry.
Monsters as tall as a human started appearing. I tightly hold my staff, and observed them one by one. They didn't only vary in color, but a few of them can even fly, and I think that their intelligence are far superior from the previous monsters of this elimination rounds.
”I'll get higher points than all of you,” Sid said.
”Really? Beat me first!” Meryll followed.
They started launching their weapons at those monsters.
