Chapter 128 [Swift Victory]
A spirit barrier encased the circular arena so that the audience wouldn’t be harmed by any stray attacks. Although it was his first time participating in this sort of competition, Ouranos carried not an ounce of anxiety on his being. After his adventures in the spirit ascension platform and his real life combat experiences, all he felt was excitement coursing through his veins. Just how far can I go?
His opponent soon arrived. It was a petite kid shorter than Ouranos. His opponent’s eyes failed to mask the confusion and anxiety running rampant beneath their outward posturing.
Every arena had a referee and theirs was a middle-aged man.
“The rules are simple. You may use any means to attack without worry. I will interfere if the need arises to ensure your safety and the result will be decided when one side concedes. In the event that participants cannot or will not concede, I will judge when one side is no longer able to continue fighting. I will also judge if the gap between contenders is too great. You both have thirty seconds to prepare. I will countdown the last five seconds. You may begin preparing now.”
Ouranos looked at the boy who stared at him Both parties were ready the boy had two yellow heavenly jewel rings.
“Five, four, three, two, one, begin!”
After he was finished count down. Ouranos looked at the person and he ran straight forward as he released his heavenly jewel ring which was purple he raised his right hand which changed into the Chaos Dragon Claw. He jumped in the air and punched the guy straight in the face he was sent flying.
Ouranos then slid to the side. He used the Dragon step making after math and he waved his paln straight at the boy who froze in place the referee stopped the fight.
“You’re too lacking in combat experience! How can you even think of participating in the competition like this?” The referee reprimanded the pale-faced boy on the ground.
“B-but my soul skills are really strong. I thought I could…”
"Go and make some combat epxerience now get out of here as for you, you move on."
"Um."
Ouranos run off from the arena and went to watch Zander fight. As he saw Zender on the stage he was fighting against a girl as both parties moved forward Zander moved his dagger straight at the girl and he touched the girl throat the referee stop the match right away the girl lost so fast. Zander grinned happily and saw Ouranos who gave him.
"Haha I won, aren't I awesome."
"I finished before you though!"
"YOU!"
In the afternoon. Genevieve, Ouranos, and Zander sat in front to watch the match of Erenay everyone was nervous after all she was blind and no one knows how she will fight and who she will fight.
A woman referee let out a deep breath she raised her hand and her barrier appeared around the arena they was a girl with short hair she looked around where the other person was.
Du, du, du, du, du, du.
Everyone heard that sound the saw a girl holding a cane and walking up the steps slowly as she kept on walking she stepped forward and the woman referee frowned who would allow a blind person to fight.
"As you all know the rule I will stop the game if I feel like someone is in danger."
"You two may start."
The girl with short hair released her heavenly jewel ring and her mount at the same time she then ran straight at Erenay. But Erenay also released her heavenly jewel ring.
Ouranos asked to only use one element so she decided to use her ice element everything became ice cold she disappeared within a mist and she raised her hand created a palace ice arena she then waved her cane straight at the girls he was shot out of the arena palace. Erenay then raised her paint brush for everyone who knew about Genesis Rune.
Genesis Rune scroll was a four grade a water dragoon appeared it felt like a real dragon.
"Enough match over!"
Ouranos ran straight over and threw his arms around Erenay!
"A swift victory well done."
"Um it was nothing cough cough."
"Mo Mo what's wrong."
"Nothing I just want to lay down," Erenay said.
Ouranos picked up Erenay cheeks and she punched Ouranos chest.
"Idiot put me down to my people."
"Don't worry all I am doing is taking care of you."
This stupid idiot!
"I don't need up to-"
Ouranos stared at her and he chuckled as he stuck out his tongue.
"Won't listen to you, you worked so hard and you are a blind girl."
"ANO I AM GOING TO KILL YOU!

“Our opponents shouldn’t be that strong, so we can just fight as we always do. We don’t have to worry about our strength in the first round; we should be able to win without a sweat.”
“Mn.” The other three nodded in agreement.
“I’ll be watching you all then. I don’t know if Teacher Ezequiel told you this, but due to the high resources invested into such a small class, this tournament is being used to test your class’s success. So you should aim for the best result. If you can get a good ranking, then in the future, the academy might invest more resources into your class. Especially you, Ouranos. I’m sure you’re aware that you’ve eaten away all of the academy’s funds. So, good luck kids!”
"I under Mr. Martin."
"Good I wish you three good luck and don't try to harm other do you understand me?"
"Um yes."
The space provided for the team competition was much grander than the individual competition’s. The arenas for the three versus three team battles were each fifty meters in diameter.
However, the three versus three team competition wasn’t that popular. That was because powerful academies would all send seven-man teams to compete instead. Only academies lacking in people or already possessing a main seven-man team would have a three-man team.
After observing several matches, Ouranos and the others came to the conclusion that they had no serious competition within the junior division’s three-man team event. Nothing of note occurred while they watched.
“Boss, why are these matches making me so sleepy?” Zander asked.
Ouranos crossed his arms and he sighed.
"That's because they aren't strong enough..But don’t get careless; we’re only observing one part of the stadium. Let’s plan our strategy now…”
