Chapter 632 Defeating an average warrior
From MC's perspective:
"Faction Head?'
"What is this all about?" one of the heavily built warriors asked.
Then his gaze turned towards me. He is focusing on my uniform.
Faction Head Amelia then started telling her students. At this point, other warriors also arrived.
A few minutes later,
The flame faction warriors of this institution turned towards me. Their expressions turned serious. I think they couldn't believe what they were hearing!
"She is right!"
"I came here for a challenge," I said to them.
Gasp!
The next second, a small exclamation rang out in the place. They couldn't believe that I would come here.
"Call, Thomas."
"He always wanted to fight against Zack Lockwood," A voice came from the crowd.
"Yes, Thomas can fight equally against Zack Lockwood," Another voice came from the crowd.
Right after, everyone started saying Thomas.
The flame faction head Amelia nodded at her before saying, "Alright, ask Thomas to come to the training ground."
After saying that she started to guide me toward her cabin.
In a few minutes, the news about my coming here quickly spread to the whole B-grade institution. My name started to appear in online posts.
Meanwhile,
The news came as a thunder for the warriors in the A-grade institution. They couldn't believe someone from the A-grade institution would go there.
When they learned the warrior was none other than Zack Lockwood. The warriors felt their face was slapped. Especially when they learned Zack had gone for a challenge.
They don't know where to hide their faces. Almost every faction had warriors defeated by Zack Lockwood. Zack had gone there. Which means there was no capable warrior in the A-grade institution.
Shortly after, a strong criticism started to spread against Zack Lockwood.
On the other hand, Thomas who had gone outside for a while returned to the academy. When he learned that such an interesting thing was happening.
He let out a wide laugh before starting to go towards the B-grade institution.
Meanwhile,
Faction Head Amelia started explaining about the strong warriors in this institution. According to her, many warriors are qualified to enter an A-grade institution.
But because of the lack of admission seats. They weren't able to get the chance.
Hearing that I nodded my head at her. Who knows there might be strong warriors studying here.
Shortly after,
Amelia received the news about Thomas' arrival.
"Let's go, Thomas has arrived. He is one of the strongest Super Elite Warriors," She said.
Hearing that I ease down my eyebrows. Finally, I don't have to wait for a long time.
Soon, we reached the training ground. When we got here. I saw it's a medium-sized duel platform. Many warriors have gathered in the place.
Each faction had its fighting platform. This was the fighting platform of the Flame faction.
When I was observing the platform. Amelia asked everyone to be quiet. Then a red-haired person stepped forward.
He looked at me before turning toward the flame faction head.
"Zack, he is Thomas," Amelia said.
I nodded at her before turning towards him and asked, "Are you ready for a fight?"
"Zack Lockwood, I didn't expect to see you here. But don't worry, I won't let you win easily," Thomas said with a smile.
Hearing that I responded with a smile as well. I didn't expect the guy to be this enthusiastic.
Then Amelia asked whether to start the fight or not.
Hearing that I walked to the platform. And Thomas stood opposite to me. This place was different from the duel arena.
Only people from the Flame faction are here. I bet others are itching to watch the duel as well.
Meanwhile,
Dean Rebecca heard the reports as well. She couldn't help but reveal a small smile. She thinks that this news will distract others from the recent incident.
She is also getting requests from other faction heads. They all want to watch the duel as well. But she thinks it's inappropriate to do it.
Otherwise, conflict may break out between the institutions. But if someone manages to duel better than the Warriors training here.
Then it might give her a headache again. The warriors in the B-grade institution might ask for admission.
It can't be helped. She had no choice other than to let it happen.
On the other hand, Ernest and Laverne were also surprised by the news. They didn't expect Zack to come up with such a plan.
Meanwhile,
In the duel arena, we stood opposite each other.
Thomas was eager to duel against me. Amelia stood as a referee.
When she gave the signal. Thomas took out a scythe to attack. The next second, a blazing flame released from her weapon.
One after another the flame ball shot towards me.
But in my eyes, the speed was rather slower compared to A-grade institution warriors.
Swish!
I started to evade the attack one by one. The flame ball hits the empty air and lands on the ground.
Boom!
A deafening sound reverberated throughout the area.
When the smoke was settled. Everyone saw that we were starting at the same place.
Gasp!
A small exclamation sounded inside the room.
Thomas was startled as well. His flame attack was fast enough. But now looking at Zack. He couldn't help but furrow his eyebrows.
Swish!
When he is not paying attention. I started charging towards him. Thomas raised his scythe to attack. When the blade got closer to me.
I sidestepped enough to evade the attack. The next second, a blade pierces through the empty air.
Thomas' pupil shrinks. He wanted to step back a little. But my fist comes raining down on his face.
Smack!
I punched him. The next second, Thomas retreats a few steps backward.
Seeing that I rushed out to attack. One after another, my punch landed on his body. In the blink of an eye, Thomas was pushed back to a defensive position.
"What's with his speed?" Thomas said in his heart.
He realized that Zack was not using the lightning technique at all. A hint of fear appeared in his eyes.
Before he could think further another fist broke through his defense and a massive fist hit his chest.
Pfff!
Coughing up blood. He left the circle of the landing platform.
Right at that moment, Amelia declared me a winner.
Quiet!
There was pin-drop silence in the whole room. No one expected the duel to come to an end this quickly.
Thomas wiped blood from his mouth before standing up. He looked at Zack with a solemn gaze. Not only he, but the other Flame faction warriors are silent as well.
Especially the faction head Amelia was shocked. From beginning to end, Zack didn't use his special element at all.
He won the duel by simply using brute strength. Then something strikes her mind. The flame technique practiced by the warriors here is not that high grade.
Maybe the quality of technique might be the reason for Thomas' defeat.
At the time, Thomas stepped out and his friends started taking him to the infirmary. I didn't use blood energy at all. Otherwise, he would have deep injuries.
This is a small duel to test out their strength. Shaking my head, I turned towards Amelia. Earlier, she bragged about her students.
Now, one of them wasn't able to withstand the brute strength.
Faction Head Amelia saw through Zack's thoughts. The duel was eye-opening for her. Not only to her but to others as well.
She then let out a small cough before turning towards others.
"Is there anyone who wants to fight against Zack Lockwood?" She asked.
Hearing that many lowered their heads. Not many are as daring as Thomas. On the other hand, I waited patiently.
As the time passed, no one stepped forward. I felt bored. So I decided to go back to my room.
"Alright, if anyone is interested. They can inform the elderly. If there is a challenge, I'll come tomorrow,' I said to everyone.
Hearing that Amelia thought the decision was good as well. If she had time she could collect the names of the interested people.
Few of them are outside of the academy.
A few minutes later,
I left the B-grade institution's premises and went back to my building. Faction Head Amelia was kind enough to send me off.
When I started walking back. I came across warriors who were going about their business. As I walked past them, many of them recognized my faces.
The next moment, they started to gossip and took pictures of me. Soon, I reached my room. After entering inside, I closed the door and walked back to bed to lie down.
Then I closed my eyes and recalled the duel in my mind. Thomas' flame technique was the average grade. And he wasn't proficient as well.
If this is the standard then other warriors are average as well. Then I decided to wait until tomorrow. Faction Head Amelia might find names.
I guess not only the Flame faction. Other faction warriors might show interest tomorrow.
