Chapter 303: Victory in the First Battle!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Mill, your boy Moss won. Why do I feel you’re more excited than him?” Mia poked the excited Mill’s arm childishly. She pouted and feigned confusion.

“He’s my good friend and has won a battle in a significant competition. Wouldn’t you feel excited if it were you?” Mill said, arms akimbo.

“Ah, your classmate and food friend. I see. Your relationships are pure, so I already know the answer since you’re so serious,” Mia nodded and said seriously.

Mill knew the hidden meaning behind Mia’s words and shook her fist in front of Mia’s face. She said smilingly, “Your skin looks so pinchable.”

“I’m afraid of that, so I won’t mention Moss in front of you again, okay?” Mia closed one eye and said mischievously with her tongue sticking out.

Mill immediately showed her domineering side and said smilingly, “No way! How can you not mention such an outstanding student like Moss? Still, it would be best if you watched your words. You can say anything else other than calling him, my boy.”

“Okay, whatever you say!” Mia spread her hands and said helplessly.

Moss won the second match, bringing the score to 2:0. Taiwu did not expect this result, and Kyoto was slightly surprised. However, Taiwu became restless about the score.

Although they still had eight second-year students who had yet to take the stage, the other party had five second-year students.

If Taiwu wanted to win this match, they had to secure total victory against Kyoto’s three other first-year students. They also had to win at least three more matches against Kyoto’s second-year participants.

It would be meaningless if they only won two matches. If not, Taiwu had no chance of winning in the five-on-five segment.

“The third match will be between Noel, a first-year student from Kyoto, and a second-year student from Taiwu, “Aurora’s voice echoed throughout the venue as the two contestants walked onto the stage.

Meanwhile, the audience gave thunderous applause.

“Look, that’s Noel! This year’s national college entrance exam’s top scorer!”

“It’s a pity we have to witness his failure from the start.”

“Experiencing failure is also a kind of experience. Only Kyoto would dare to do this. If it were another university, they wouldn’t have sent so many first-year students to a competition as significant as this.”

“You can do it, Noel!”

Noel’s appearance immediately caused a heated discussion in the arena. It was not surprising that he was so popular. After all, he was the top national scorer and the most demanding one in the history of the college entrance exams.

A man with brown, long hair said in a bored manner, “What’s so good about this competition, boss? A first-year student is nothing against a second-year student.”

A handsome man with blue eyes and blonde hair said, “Don’t be so arrogant, Norton.”

He gazed over the participants wearing the same uniform around him. His face darkened as he locked eyes on ring one and continued, “Shuimu Institute is determined to win the championship this year. We must not underestimate our opponents and respect them.

“Look at how severe Shanghai Institute is. We are worthy of learning from them from just that standpoint. Our opponents in the semi-finals will likely be them, so we must pay close attention to their every move from now on.”

Norton bared his teeth and said with an evil smile, “I will treat them seriously and thoroughly study them from now on, Captain Quincy. If they meet me in a match, I will ruthlessly kick their butts.”

Co-captain Oriel said worriedly, “Norton, I have a few words to say about you. Your strength is your confidence, but your weakness is that you have too much of it. Captain Quincy said you must respect every opponent, so commit that to memory!”

Norton’s expression became severe as he said thoughtfully, “You must put your heart at ease, Co-captain Oriel. I will respect every opponent by defeating them!”

Quincy said lowly, with his face still straight, “All right, observe the match. Kyoto’s first-year students are no slouches.”

He knew he could not do anything to change how Norton behaved. Although he did not like Norton because of his ego, Norton was strong. As the team captain, Quincy had to use his team’s strength to the fullest.

Meanwhile, Fakao and Noel had already started exchanging blows as the others discussed.

After more than a month of training in the Spiritual Energy Club, Noel’s strength had significantly increased, especially in integrating spiritual energy and skills.

However, his opponent was Fakao, Taiwu’s fifth-strongest second-year student, nicknamed the “Heated Brown Bear.”

Fakao was a Great Fire Swordsman, a profession that was even more powerful than a Great Swordsman, mainly because of the fire element.

Whenever one from this profession reached a high level, they would possess incredible strength. Three consecutive strikes from them would break through 110 tons of force.

They also possessed the terrifying fire elemental buff with scorching and burning effects. It was lethal in a one-on-one battle. Therefore, Noel could not withstand Fakao’s Scorching Triple Slash, even with his Bone Sword Storm, which was at the pinnacle of perfection.

Moss frowned while watching the battle. “It looks like Noel can only hold on for another five minutes.”

However, he knew how powerful Noel was to last for 20 minutes. Moreover, Fakao was using almost all of his strength. Moss sensed that Noel had significantly improved compared to the last time they fought.

Noel and Moss were at the same level; level 36. As for his spiritual power, Noel was at least at the intermediate stage of a low-level powerhouse, close to the peak level.

When Fakao’s Scorching Triple Slash struck Noel a moment later, Noel’s white bone defensive wall ultimately could not block it.

Fakao forced Noel to retreat with the additional burn damage. In the end, after ensuring he was not severely injured, Noel jumped out of bounds.

“Excellent!”

“This match is too beautiful!”

“Woo, Fakao!”

Fakao raised his sword high as his name echoed throughout the arena. Simultaneously, the audience gave Noel warm applause.

“That’s what I’d expect from the top scorer. He lasted 20 minutes against a second-year student. I can’t imagine the heights Noel would climb to next year.”

“A rare class like Noel’s, coupled with his talent, will bring a limitless future for Noel.”

Moss took the initiative to high-five Noel as Noel walked into the resting area. “Well done!”

Noel reached out and high-fived Moss, shaking his head slightly. Then he gave Moss a thumbs up and said admiringly, “You did even better. You would have fooled me if I didn’t know how strong you were.”

As the two talked, Charlie walked over and smiled nervously at them. “It’s my turn now.”

Moss raised his hand and high-fived Charlie.

Noel followed suit, saying, “Relax. They’re not as strong as our seniors. You’ll be okay as long as you don’t get hurt. Victory is ultimately ours.”

Charlie raised his right fist and shouted, “Let’s go!”

He looked much more confident at that moment.
