Chapter 309: Section D (1/2)
Chloe had lost against Jami, but her performance was admirable.
”Looks like there are many talented students in the lower section this year,” Principal Mar said after Chloe and Jami's fight.
Principal Mar was in a good mood. Thanks to Yman's performance yesterday the VIPs find the competition entertaining. Though it left a bad aftertaste that one of the elites was defeated by a student from the lowest section.
He almost couldn't believe that Yman and Chloe were from section D.
Right, he remembered that aside from them, other students from Section D managed to reach the third elimination round.
On the stage, another pair of participants went on stage.
It's Julie Brown against an opponent from section B. Julie was one of the students from section D.
Her opponent was a male student who chose a spear as his main weapon.
The enemy scoffed after seeing his opponent. After all, Julie was from the lowest section. This fight would be easier compared to his last fight. Julie's enemy thought inwardly.
He sent fast and furious attacks at Julie.
Heyaaahh!
Julie increased her defense while crossing her arms across her broad torso. Although she was a girl, her body was broader than most males in the academy. And she was investing in vitality. All her training methods were focused on increasing her endurance. That's why only her vitality attribute improved more often.
Although she had high defense, Julie still received wounds over her body from receiving her enemy's fierce attacks. However, thanks to her high defense, the damage wasn't so serious.
The onlookers had ashen faces. None of them was as masochist as Julie. They would rather avoid getting stabbed by the sharp tip of the spear.
Yet, Julie let herself take the stabs. But it was apparent on her face that she was enduring the pain.
”Hahaha! Die die die die!” The enemy shouted while laughing, amused at Julie's predicament.
But, he noticed that Julie was still alive. She remained on her feet while wounds were all over her body.
Her enemy wondered why she had to endure so much. Regardless, 'How come a person has so much resilience?' Julie's enemy thought in wonder.
'No. This one is not a human!' After saying it, he leaped backward and summoned more mana on his spear. Now his spear was brightly shining like a high enchantment weapon.
He felt Julie was meaning to say that his attack wasn't enough to defeat her. How dare she! He spun the shining spear which generated a humming sound.
Then he leaped high in the air. ”Furious Gaping Dragon!”
It was a technique in which the user jumped high in the air and suddenly dove towards his enemy while pointing the shiny tip of the spear at his enemy.
The tip of the spear transformed into a gaping dragon head.
”Now die! Gorilla!!!”
He shouted with all his might.
After hearing it, Julie's eyes shone brightly.
There was a taboo when insulting Julie. Triggered by the word 'Gorilla', mana burst out from her body.
Julie's body turned into the color of a reptile. Scales surfacing, covering some parts of her body. Not only that, the wounds on her body disappeared. It was also noticeable that her body swelled, turning her like a genie from the golden lamp.
She caught the enemy's spear with her bare hand. Then smashed him flat on the stage.
Everyone was dumbfounded. He was defeated on the spot. Not only the audiences outside, even the VIPs thought that she was a real beast.
The other students gulped. They never thought there was another beast in section D.
Julie won overwhelmingly against a higher section opponent.
Those students in section D had the lowest mana capacity compared to the other sections. However, it didn't mean they were weak. If trained arduously, even a worm could evolve into a dragon.
A thunderous clapping resounded.
Julie went to the corner of the waiting room upon returning and sat down before she canceled the resonance with her deity. Unexpectedly, her deity looks like a genie.
Everyone was warily staring at her. But in their minds, 'What, she is already capable of advanced resonance!?' They were surprised upon seeing that Julie's deity was a genie series.
Once a person managed to pull off an advanced resonance, they could transform into their deity's physical form.
It also greatly increased their attributes. Julie had trained harder to pull it off.
After she transformed into a genie, her physical defense rose to an unimaginable degree. Because of it, her enemy's attack had lowered greatly. Though, it also depends on how high the enemy's attack.
Nonetheless, Julie's defense won this time.
After Julie's match, another pair came on stage. The match ended in a draw after both of them failed to defeat their opponent in a given time.
The next pair came up right away. But the match ended faster than most of the previous matches. It was an overwhelming victory by a person from section A. His opponent was from section C.
His opponent tried to pull off a miraculous win like those students from section D, but it did not happen. The participant from section C was defeated when two shining swords carved a big wound in the form of 'X' on his body.
The next who came up on stage was Ban, the bunny man from the elite class and a member of Rei-Rei's party. His opponent was someone from Kiko's party.
Kiko's friend did a good job in their match, but in the end, he was defeated. Ban was faster and stronger and had a higher mana capacity. Everyone agreed that it was a predetermined result.
Kesha was the next one who came up on stage. Almina was cheering at her. Especially their party members.
