As Evan came into the field of the stadium, he saw it was fully occupied by the spectators.
ραΠdαsΝοvel.cοm There were five entrances in the stadium and from each entrance, came the team of the different academies.
The tens of thousands of spectators at the stadium began cheering when they saw the participants coming out.
Evan already knew about the participants of Arcanum and Clear Sky Academy, so he ignored them and looked at the participants of Central and Ravehurst City.
Even though the participants of both of the academies were quite far away from him, he was still able to notice that the highest rank among them was B+ rank.
He wasn't surprised by this because it is already considered quite good for people to reach B+ rank at such a young age.
There were three males and two females in the team of Ravenhurst Academy.
Meanwhile, in the team of Central Academy, there were four males and one female.
Evan paid special attention to the team of Ravenhurst City because of Sera.
After being attacked by the dark guild two days ago, he was now sure that Sera or another member of the dark guild is definitely planning to do something during the tournament.
After seeing the participants of the two academies, Evan looked around and soon noticed some people who were sitting at the top area of the stadium.
There were ten people who were sitting in the top area of the stadium.
The reason they caught Evan's attention was because all of them were S rank hunters.
Other than the four principles of the academies, Natasha, Sebastian and four more S rankers were present there.
It was the first time Evan saw so many S rankers at the same place so he was very surprised.
Even though most of the S rankers are very famous and normally people recognize them with a single glance.
Evan had always been someone who didn't care about the world so he didn't know who the other four S rankers were.
'They might be guild masters of the other four platinum rank guilds..' Evan thought to himself when he saw ten S rank hunters.
He paid special attention to Morgana, John and Amanda because of the killing intent he felt earlier.
Although Nathan was also present there...Evan could tell that he wasn't the one who showed killing intent towards him.
As Edward led them towards the centre of the field, Valery and others noticed a small stage there.
But all the participants can't help but raise an eyebrow when they saw the stage.
"Don't you think this stage is quite small?" Amy said as they walked.
The stage was just 100 square meters in size which was very small to be considered a fighting stage.
Other students were also confused and wondering why the stage was so small.
Once all of the students gathered near the stage, a middle aged man descended from the sky and hovered in the centre of the stadium.
Evan looked at the man and just from a single glance could tell he was an A+ rank hunter.
"Welcome, I am....well you don't need to know my name since it is not important, I will be the host of this year's tournament. First and foremost, I would like to thank everyone for coming here today."
Evan and the others looked at the man speechlessly wondering who allowed him to host the tournament.
"I know everyone is excited about the tournament and what kind of challenges our participants will face this time, so I won't waste your time and will get directly to the point."
"As you all might be wondering why there is such a small stage in the middle of the stadium, so let me clear your doubts that this stage is not for fighting. "This year's tournament will be completely different from all the previous ones. This year's tournament will have three rounds..." After saying this, the man looked toward the place where S rankers were sitting. "To explain the first round of the tournament, I would like to invite the president of the hunter association Miss Natasha because, without her help, we can't start the first round of the tournament."
The crowd began cheering and clapping when they heard Natasha's name. In the eyes of the people who were present, she was the strongest hunter so it was natural many people admired her.
Evan and the other contestants were also surprised to hear the man and looked in the direction where ten S rank hunters were sitting.
Natasha still had a wooden cane in her hands and her white hairs were tied in a bun. Hearing what the host said, a small smile appeared on her wrinkled face as she stood up.
Suddenly she disappeared from the place she was standing.
'Fast' Evan can't help but say inwardly when he wasn't even able to follow her movement before she appeared just above the stage.
Natasha looked at the participants with a strange glint in her eyes.
She did not say anything after appearing above the stage and waved her hand.
The storage ring in her hand shined a little and a small silver-coloured orb which was ten centimetres in diameter appeared in her hands.
Swoosh!!
Strong energy ripples filled the stadium just as Natasha took out the orb.
The eyes of Evan and other participants opened wide for a moment when they felt the energy ripples coming out from the orb.
'An S rank artefact' Evan thought inwardly because it was the first time he was seeing an S rank artefact from such a close distance.
Although he saw Sebastian's armour and sword when he met him a few days ago in his office, they were not releasing any ripples so he was not able to feel their power.
But it was just the beginning as what happened next shocked him even more.
Suddenly a silver halo appeared around Natasha and she dropped the small orb towards the stage. The size of the orb started to expand at a rapid speed and it became ten meters wide in diameter just before hitting the stage.
Woosh!
A silver light burst forth from the orb that Natasha dropped and a portal that was similar to the portal of a dungeon appeared before Evan and everyone.
'Don't tell me this is a portable dungeon' Evan can't help but think when he felt energy fluctuations similar to the dungeon portal coming out from the gate created by the silver orb.
