Chapter 786 Open challenge!
From MC's perspective:
Duel Platform,
The Weapon Hall Wizards decided to confront them during the challenge. So they walked to the seat/chair and sat on it from No.6 to No.11.
The other wizard student who sat on the No.11 Seat gave up his place voluntarily before selecting the next empty seat.
The other hand, a smile grew on my face. The actions of the Weapon Hall wizards are interesting. I don't know whether they can maintain the same attitude during the duel.
Shortly after,
The Unique Hall Wizard Miranda walked into the ground. Her appearance on the big screen brought applause from the audience.
After the difficult first duel, she was able to win the next few duels. When she appeared. She also saw what's going on here. After looking at the top 10 positions, she swept her gaze at other places.
Her gaze paused when she saw Vincent. Because Vincent is sitting on the last seat. Which surprised her. Then she made the decision as well.
She started approaching the 24th place and decided to sit on it. Her move attracted others' attention. Mike Curtis raised his eyebrows as well.
"Unique Hall?" He muttered in his heart. Among the Wizard Hall, the Unique Hall Wizards are difficult to handle.
Because it's difficult to know their magic spells. The Unique Hall has always been a mystery.
The Elemental Hall and the Weapon Hall wizards also swept her gazes at her.
On the other hand, I looked at her before closing my eyes.
There are still people from the Power Hall yet to come. Among the new dark horses, the Power Hall's wizard among them.
Right after, Miranda sat on her seat. The Transformation Wizards walked in. One of them was a female wizard who got popular during the previous rounds.
She was none other than Jennie the ghost transformation wizard. Walking beside her is another male member of their Wizard Hall.
Like others the duo also take a look at everyone. When Jennie saw the bottom places. Her eyebrows ease down. Especially after seeing Miranda, she decides to sit next to her.
Soon, the 23rd and 22nd seats were occupied as well. Then the Beast Hall members walked in. Unlike others, they moved towards the empty chairs to sit on.
Finally, the Mechanical Wizard made an appearance. Like others he quickly found the last empty place to sit on.
By the time, the audiences on the stand were seated in their place as well.
Noise!
The audiences' noise is reverberating throughout the place.
"Quiet," The next second, a soothing voice reached everyone's ears.
Hearing that audiences felt goosebumps all over their body. The whole place became pin drop silence the next moment.
The voice sounded like some close talk to them. But when they turned, the people saw that everyone's expression was the same.
Suddenly, the big screen flashes. A middle aged person wearing a staff uniform appeared on the ground.
"Well, I'm the referee for this open challenge round. The wizards who have occupied the top 10 place at the end of the open challenge round will be finalized."
"They will be selected in the level-5 category for upcoming future events," After saying that he revealed a mysterious smile on his face.
Then he set his gaze on the 25 wizard students before saying,"For this open challenge. You guys have 3 chances. You can challenge anyone from 1st to 25th place."
"After 3 chances, you lose the chance to challenge others. At the end of today, the wizards ranks will be based on their final position. "
The voice was soothing but it's heard clearly by everyone.
At 25th seat, I'm looking at the referee in bewilderment.
"Why do I feel that the referee is a high level wizard?" I said in my heart.
Uproar!
The audience let out an uproar. The noise was so loud that it sounded like it was booming. Everyone on the stand realized that the soothing voice came from the referee.
The majority of the audiences are made up of the wizard students from the Outer House and Inner House. Their numbers are larger. There are wizard students from the core house as well.
So they all came to know that the referee is not simply a staff. He might be a high ranking wizard.
Inside the staff room,
Carolina Slate and other staff were in a state of shock as well. The staff are discussing that the referee might be their Superior.
Earlier, Carolina was amazed by seeing the rising tension between the wizard students. She even applauded Vincent's move to sit in the last position.
But right now she feels the rising tension again. She doesn't know who Vincent is going to challenge.
The referee ignored the noise before looking at the participants.
"The open challenge officially starts now."
"Who is going to come up first?" He asked the 25 wizard students.
Suddenly, one of the Weapon Hall Wizard stood up before challenging the 2nd position. The 2nd position was held by the Elemental wizard.
Seeing that not everyone was surprised. Everyone noticed the tension between the 2 wizard Halls earlier.. When it comes to Mike Curtis. He closed his eyes. He knows no food would be a challenge.
Rather it's safe to say that no one would be willing to offend the Taboo Hall.
"What about you?" The referee asked the Elemental Wizard. There is no way to deny the challenge. Either they have to accept it or admit defeat.
The Elemental Wizard accepted the challenge. He was expecting this to happen. As many of them are vying for the top 10 place.
Swish!
The both of them walked to the platform. When they stood opposite each other. The barrier starts to envelop the platform.
A few moments ago,
On the other hand, I felt the gaze of the person beside me. She is none other than Miranda. "Why is she looking at me?"I said in my heart.
Then I realized not only her, some other people are looking in my direction. I guess they are waiting for me to challenge someone.
But I'm not going to act first. One of the reasons I chose this place was to watch other's duels.
