After class, the arena was filled with the entire class. Not a single student actually missed this match because they were curious how Daniel would defeat this person.
If Kanaria were sad, the boys would be there to comfort her.
Unfortunately for them, Daniel’s opponent was Clovis.
Before the match started, an old man suddenly came to the arena, mingling with other students.
"To think that there would be a duel like this on the first day. I’ll surely be busy in the next couple of days." The old man sighed. "Let’s see the talented individuals that Hana Skylark sent to this academy."
No one noticed him yet because he had been erasing his presence. He didn’t need to be an assassin, with his Tier 8 strength, even Kanaraia wouldn’t notice him.
Daniel had changed. He was wearing a tight body suit that didn’t cover his muscular body in the slightest.
He rested his giant axe on his shoulder as he said, "Use this defeat to understand your place!"
Clovis remained silent, not wanting to give attention to this idiot.
The teacher sighed. "No fatal attack is allowed. Once I see it, I will stop it. Other than that, you are free to use all your strength in this battle. I’ll be stopping the match if I deem it necessary. Please say yes if you are ready."
"Yes!" Daniel grinned.
Clovis pulled out his swords. Compared to Daniel’s giant axe, Clovis’ sword felt like they were going to snap if he ever received Daniel’s attack head-on.
"Yes. I’m ready." Clovis nodded to the teacher.
"Match starts!" The teacher declared as soon as she got the confirmation from both parties.
"Get ready!" Daniel jumped toward him. Despite being big, he was quite fast. He slammed his giant axe at Clovis.
Clovis squinted his eyes. It seemed that even though this guy was a bully, he still had a very good foundation.
Despite swinging that big axe, Clovis didn’t see any gaps in his movement. If he overwhelmed him with his speed, he wouldn’t be able to block that axe.
Hence, Clovis changed his approach. He swung multiple times at the axe to stop that attack, but Daniel simply overwhelmed him with his strength. "It’s useless!"
Bang!
The axe pushed the two swords to the ground before it cracked the arena’s floor.
After that, Daniel stretched his hand, trying to grab Clovis’ neck. Clovis skillfully kicked the hand up, but this was actually what Daniel wanted.
Now that Clovis’ stance was unstable, he swung that big axe with only one hand to throw him off balance.
Clovis simply jumped with one foot and landed on top of his axe, using it to propel himself up.
"!!!" Slightly shocked, Daniel charged forward. "Dodging alone won’t kill the beasts!"
"You are absolutely correct," said Clovis with a soft tone, his expression turned a bit more serious.
Daniel swung his axe horizontally, forcing Clovis to put both blades in its way to block it.
Sadly, it wasn’t enough to stop Daniel’s strength as he launched him more than ten meters away.
"This is useless."
"The exchange student is going to lose soon!"
"As expected, it’s useless. Daniel is among the top in our class. There’s no way he can beat him."
"He won’t be able to join the annual event then!"
The students lamented the fact that the exchange student was so arrogant that he accepted Daniel’s challenge.
But the table was turned around right after.
Daniel swung his axe vertically. If Clovis blocked it, he would definitely die or at least get pinned to the ground.
Clovis inhaled deeply as his vision turned slower.
Right before the axe hit him, Clovis took a step to the left, barely avoiding it. After that, he swung his swords multiple times as he passed him.
"This is a disappointment." Clovis sighed.
"!!!" The students couldn’t help but widen their eyes in shock. Just for a split second, Clovis moved so fast that they didn’t realize he had actually walked past Daniel.
In fact, over fifteen sword marks suddenly appeared on Daniel’s body as blood suddenly spurted from each of them.
"Gaaahhh!" Daniel screamed in pain as he didn’t understand what actually happened.
Kanaria and Jay smiled, fully aware that Clovis had gotten serious.
Only the teacher and the old man were able to see what actually happened.
’Impossible. He leaves behind 20 hits in that split second? If that is a full second, he should be able to swing his sword over 45 times. It’s already at the level of a Tier 4 explorer with blood affinity. At that level, they have also learned the Flow Control.’ The teacher sucked a cold breath.
’What kind of strength is this? Someone who is able to fight a person two tiers above him? Although he is still at the low tier and the gap between each tier is still small, only several people in the country are able to do it.’ The old man shuddered, realizing what kind of monster had actually entered his academy.
Daniel didn’t know what happened.
"You… What did you do?!" Daniel gritted his teeth.
"Nothing. You are simply too weak." Clovis shook his head helplessly. "Maybe if you are stronger, you will realize what I did earlier."
"You motherfucker!" Daniel roared and charged at him again, this time swinging his axe horizontally. He would do the same attack that blew Clovis away.
However, Clovis gathered his momentum and released it in one go, hitting Daniel’s axe. The force that came out of that swing overpowered Daniel to the point where his hands lost their grip and the axe was flying several meters into the air.

"This is the end. Such a disappointment." Clovis jumped into the air and launched a back kick on Daniel’s head, crushing his jaw and sending him flying all the way to the arena’s wall.
Bam!
Daniel crashed into the wall, completely getting knocked out with his jaw dislocated.
The students dropped their jaws to the ground, not believing that Daniel lost miserably against Clovis.
Even the teacher was so speechless that she forgot to announce the winner.
