Chelsa instantly attacked Emerald, who saw that. Emerald's provocation had worked, and Chelsa was at the palms of Emerald's hand.
The explosion that Chelsa made was ineffective. Judging by what she did, Emerald had blocked the attack. I couldn't see what she did, but this fight wasn't looking so good for Chelsa.
Chelsa was shocked to see Emerald unharmed. After that, she became wary of what Emerald could do.
"Not going to continue attacking? It looks like that's all you're."
Without saying anything else, Emerald started her attack. The acid began to fly out of Emerald, and the ground began to melt.
They were dangerous, but it wasn't strong enough to melt the current me. Emerald's magic could cause a lot of pain to many people.
Spraying a whole lot of acid, Chelsa did her best to teleport away. But Emerald didn't just stop there. Instead, she continued to spread her acid to where Chelsa went.
This wasn't looking good for Chelsa. A drop of acid had landed, and Chelsa had felt the pain of the single drop.
Chelsa's mana was too low. Most of them were gone from her explosion and teleportation.
"You are pathetic. I'm going to finish you now!"
Emerald looked bored. The battle wasn't interesting with how weak Chelsa currently is. Chelsa couldn't do much in this situation and refused to give up.
She then created a wave of acid filling most of the arena. Chelsa couldn't do anything but make an opening. But unable to do so, Chelsa took the full brunt of it.
Chelsa had fainted from the pain. The match ended with Team Igarde's victory. Emerald looked at Chelsa's body before walking away in silence.
"Team Evergreen and Team Avaris."
This was the final match for the first round. However, team Evergreen was someone we also needed to watch out for.
Rebecca was the last to remain, with Seele being the second last. Lisa had yet to join the fight. Seele's magic was related to magic. Her specialty lies in defense.
The chances of Rebecca beating team Evergreen were low. If Rebecca can't break through Seele's water shield, then Rebecca would be in a hell of a time.
Having to start the fight, Seele made the first attack. But, unlike Seele, Rebecca had no way of attacking from a far range.
Seele flooded the arena with water, making the floor slippery. Rebecca had to be careful with her steps. But as a beastmen, she should have much control over her body parts.
Rebecca, with her daggers, went to Steele as close as possible. Steele used her water and tried to push Rebecca as far away as possible.
Suddenly the water that Steele made had scattered. Rebecca's magic had improved on some level. With nothing stopping Rebecca, she tried to slash Steele with her dagger.
Steele had reacted and cast a shield blocking the hit. But when Steele removed her shield, Rebecca teleported and kicked Steele right on the top of her head.
The blow had knocked her out. Now that Steele was out, it was Lisa's turn to go. I wonder how this battle will turn out.
Time Manipulation versus Air Manipulation. Both of their magic was strong in their own right. But the stronger one would win.
"Don't you think hurting Steele that hard on the head is cruel?"
"This is a battle."
Rebecca frowned when asked such a question. She found it pointless when Lisa said that.
"She's already tiny. You might have shrunk her with that kick."
That was cruel if you think about it, but since she was a fairy, being tiny wasn't the worst thing possible.
Rebecca's eyes twitch upon hearing that. She was ready to battle, but Lisa seemed to be taking this battle lightly.
"Is that all you have to say?"
"Yep~!"
Annoyed by Lisa's easy attitude, Rebecca went in for the kill. Lisa, who saw this, used the air to put pressure on her surroundings.
Rebecca would have a massive disadvantage in a fight like this. Even if she skipped time, she could not get near Lisa.
Lisa's magic and mana levels were higher than Rebecca's. The fight had just started, and Rebecca was already losing.
Rebecca had no way of attacking. The pressure around Lisa was too intense. I could now see why Lisa was taking this fight while being relaxed. Her magic had countered Rebecca.
And Lisa knew the outcome from watching her battle with Seele. Lisa was more cunning than I thought.
I thought she was just a happy-going person, but from the looks of it, I needed to change my judgment of her.
Anyways the battle continued, and Lisa was still unharmed. Rebecca was pushed to the ground, unable to stop her magic.
"Don't think too bad of me. I'm doing this to calm Steele's anger."
Even if Lisa was trying to be "nice." What Lisa did was disrespectful. Lisa used her full power and kicked Rebecca on the head.
I hoped she wouldn't have her brain damaged. Lisa's kick on the head was much stronger than the kick that Rebecca had done.
Caren had felt her head while looking at that. She must have imagined herself getting hit like that and got scared of the prospect of it.
Rebecca was knocked out. Team Avaris had lost while Team Evergreen had won. Avaris, considered one of the top, was lacking this year.
Before we started our next fight, the second, third, and fourth years would have their first battle. This way, all the competitors here would recover most of their strength.
With the seniors fighting, it would be a while before we go again. I had already expected the results for our seniors.
The second year had done well. I expected that they would win. They haven't disappointed me.
As for the third year, I had given up any hope in them. Their loss wasn't unexpected, but they were depressed by their results.
Then we got the fourth-year students. Again, their results were average, and they had won their fight by a close match.
