Chapter 86 - Fierce Ray (2/2)

Another man charged forward. Ray struck at his legs before he could even attack. The man stood still for a while and then completely collapsed screaming in pain. His legs had been broken so badly that the bone was sticking out.

Ray charged at the other eight men taking them down in one blow. It was so fast they didn't even have time to strike back. Ray made sure the strike them with just enough strength to do damage but not to kill them. A few broken bones the academy would be able to heal but a death they wouldn't easily forgive.

Nine men currently laid on the floor rolling around scream in pain. The audience was greatly confused, why hadn't they been teleported away like the man earlier? As they looked on the display they could see why. The men currently on the floor only had -20HP taken away from them.

The battle system and counted each strike as a Ki strike from Ray, causing only 20 points of damage. What the academy didn't expect was someone who was able to completely overpower the other students to the point where they could defeat them with one blow.

The crowd started to become rowdy.

”That child is a devil. How could he hurt people like that?”

”He should have never been allowed in the competition in the first place.”

”He's fighting dirty! What kind of parents raised him?”

As the man in the crowd said these words, Ray turned around and stared directly at him. His eyes were fierce. The man started to sweat; fear started to grow in his heart. There was a good distance of around 100 meters between Ray and him. How could Ray have possibly heard him and knew exactly where he was the man thought. Although it seemed impossible, there was no doubt in the man's mind that Ray was staring directly at him.

”He's a monster!” The man stood up and pointed.

The six elders were currently sitting up in a separate seating compartment to the rest of the audience, discussing the events that were happening.

”Should we do something about the boy?” One of the elders proposed.

”The people call him dirty, yet they see nothing wrong with ten people ganging up on one.” The old man countered.

”What if he is to kill a student?” An elder asked.

”You have my word that my student will not go that far.” The old man promised.

The old man had felt close to Ray. So much so that he treated Ray like his own son. He thought he knew Ray well and even though he said those words, he didn't believe in them himself. The anger he was currently sensing from Ray frightened him.

Author note: As you can tell this chapter was written in the third person rather than the first person. In the tournament, there are a lot of viewpoints and rules that need to be explained which would be extremely difficult in the first person.

In the past, I have switched between first and third person but this tournament arc is simply too long. I wanted to get audience feedback. If you don't mind the third person writing I can stick with this for now and revert back at a later time. Or stick to the third person for the rest of the novel. Please let me know what you think.
