Chapter 307: Third round of elimination (2/2)

However, Chloe wasn't so lucky. Her opponent was a student from section A. The scout in Almina's party.

Almina had to cheer on both of them. She didn't want to become biased. Especially that Chloe was a friend of Yman. Also, there were several times that they were acquainted, especially when their parties went on a team exploration.

Chloe's enemy was Jami, a member of Almina's party, and took the role of scout.

When the two arrived at the center of the stage they bowed to each other.

”P-Please take care of me, Miss Jam!” Said Chloe nervously.

”Let's have an exciting battle, Chloe,” replied Jami.

She knew that even though Chloe was a little awkward, her talent in wielding a magic-based pistol was top-notch. So, she had to be careful. Also, according to her insight, Chloe was only a level below her.

Although she looked clumsy and shy, she was the most dedicated person in terms of training. But it seemed like no one had noticed it.

For Jami, Chloe was one of the most mysterious students in the Academy.

After coming in the middle of the stage, each of them wielded their best weapons and used their best armor in the form of artefacts.

An artefact was a piece of equipment mostly in the form of a ring, pendant, or any small accessories.

An artefact was more convenient to carry. You just needed to activate it and it would automatically attach to your body. One of the best examples of it was the armor in the form of a ring. Although it was a ring, once it was activated it turned to armor and automatically wrapped your body to form a set of armor.

Most artefacts looked the same, but it was easy to distinguish them from real accessories and spatial rings.

The real artefact wasn't the ring/pendant itself but the small stone on it. It is also known as a magic stone.

Though, there were many kinds of artefacts. And this accessory type was just another type.

Regardless, back to the match. After the signal, Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Chloe took the initiative; she fired consecutive shots at Jami. Her hand was so quick.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Another round of bullets flew. A speed-type Jami could only retreat and dodge. Not only that, but the speed of Chloe's shots also increased.

Oooooh!!!

The audience started cheering once again. But it was still early to judge the battle.

However, Jami found herself trapped. She was surrounded by a purple vortex! Never she imagined that Chloe was capable of doing it.

Even Yman was surprised by it. Last time, Chloe was only capable of shooting with her magic-based pistol and using a low-level purple shockwave. Yet now, she was even capable of trapping a speed-type opponent.

It wasn't easy to do it. Especially that her opponent wasn't a weak opponent based on how Yman sees it.

By the density and amount of mana Jami was releasing every time she used a leap to avoid a critical spot, Yman could guess that Jami was a higher level than those two before. And even higher than Chloe.

Perhaps she was at level 8. Two levels below a False Path realm. Once she reached level 10, it was also the start of her journey in a False Path realm. Then it was followed by 1-star False Path, 2-star False Path, 3-star False Path, and so on. Until he reached the highest star in the False Path realm. Then it continued to the Real Path realm.

Meanwhile, Jami found herself in a tight spot.

”Miss Jami! Fight!” Shouted Dianne, one of their party members.

”Fight! Fight!”

The others also cheered!

”Chloe fight!”

”Fight! Fight!”

Bob's party members did not lose in cheering.

At the tip of Chloe's pistol, mana was gathering in spherical form.

”Spherical bomb?” Yman whispered upon seeing it.

”Yman, do you mean the mass destruction attack?” Almina, beside him, asked upon hearing his whisper.

”Yeah, but I think it wasn't that one,” he said. On second glance, it wasn't the Spherical Bomb he knew. It wasn't only gathering a mass of energy, but also absorbing the lights around it.

Yman wasn't surprised that Almina also knew about the spherical bomb, after all, the first user of that skill was an Amulet. One of the founders of the Seeker's Association. Almina's grand-grandparents. Yman only knew this much. Well, it was recorded in the book.

”Photon Blast!”

After the mana-sphere at the tip of Chloe's pistol grew as big as the volleyball ball, she fired it.

A purple mass of destructive energy was shot like a meteor towards the trap Jami.
