Chapter 2041 Thor's Outburst
Dove came out of the room and sent a message to Chorus who is sitting in the spectator stand exclusive to the Elders.
He looked at the fight on the screen for a second as he mulled over some thoughts. An Elder wearing the Thor Academy Uniform came over and spoke to him.
"We need to talk."
Chorus looked at him for a moment as if he is contemplating something, before he sighed and got up. He followed the Elder out of the spectator area and into a building nearby within the Thor Academy. Chrous took a seat at the only table in the room, while the Elder still stood there.
"You don't seem surprised? You didn't even ask any questions and just followed me?" The Elder asked.
"I am expecting this."
"You are?"
"Yes, my just sent me a message about the little meeting she had with your students. So, I saw this coming."
"Since we are in the same page, I am sure you understand why I asked for this conversation. You student threatened us with pretty bold claims and very wild Bluffs."
"Did she now?" Chrous asked as he yawned lazily. The Elder frowned. This is their home ground and the are in the middle of the one of the most prestigious competitions, Chrous should be a lot more nervous in his opinion.
But instead all he got was a Lazy man who looked bored out of his mind.
"It seems like your other student, the guy who attracted too much enmity from too many people is unable to swallow the bitter pill of consequences that came with it. Did he come and cry about how scared he was about being targeted by so many people?"
Chrous chuckled lightly.
They could see the large spectator screen from the window of the building. He could still gaze at Sam who is fighting wildly while using other academy students as meat shields.
"Are you really talking about that guy? Can't you look at his face? Look at him." Chorus gestured for the Elder to take a look and the Elder looked as well with a frown on his face.
"Can you see it? Does that face look like it belongs to a person who is scared? That little weasel craves trouble. He cannot wait for all your Freshmen to gang up on him right this moment. He cannot wait to cause more commotion.
You are saying he is scared?
If the guy who single-handedly put a full-stop to the whole team competition is scared, then what about the students that ganged up just to deal with him?"
Chrous asked in the same lazy tone.
He stretched his body and moaned slightly in pleasure before standing up.
"You know better than anyone whether something fishy happened. In fact, the moment you arrived and dragged me back here to discuss this, confirmed whatever suspicions those kids had.
Otherwise, with the pride of one of the top Divine Academies, you guys would have used everything you have to pressure me and my Academy."
"YOU…"
The Elder was about to scream something, but Chrous' gaze turned cold and the surrounding atmosphere thickened like mercury.
Its as if the density of the spiritual energy itself increased by a thousand fold.
"Stop it Elder. Don't lose your dignity as a reputable Academy.
I might not care much about it, but I don't want to rip the desires of so many youngsters out in the open who still look up to the Thor Academy. They expect you to have some decorum and dignity, so show it to them that you have it.
Or, whatever my students words that you may have considered threats, I will prove it to you that they are not.
By the end of the preliminaries of this Solo combat, if you don't bring up a proper resolution, I will file an official complaint. I am not going to let this matter rest."
"How are you so sure that we did it? What proof do you have?" The Elder asked self-righteously through his gritted teeth.
"I don't know exactly what it is, but I do know where Sam might have gotten the confirmation from. The weakest link the little plan that your beloved Thor laid out.
Likhma, the candidate from the Aranya Academy."
The Elder frowned. He wanted to argue more, but he knew that the other party also knew about this matter.
In fact, the moment Sam's team was surrounded by Likhma and the rest, Olaf, the dean of the academy and several Elders understood that something is very wrong with the situation. So, an internal investigation began.
It didn't take long for them to figure out what had happened.
It was Thor's plan and it wasn't executed perfectly. Thor, acted without thinking things through and left so many loose ends. They though they already caught a hold of the biggest at the same time Dove already made her move.
But they didn't expect that the thread the other party following is not the same one they had in control.
At the same time, things heated up within the test area.
More than three dozen Divine Plane cultivators are clashing at the same time, even though the terrain was picked based on their abilities, it is still being destroyed at a visible pace.
Just the shockwaves are enough to drag everything out.
By now, the Elders are all discussing the fight heatedly.
"I didn't know the Olympians have lucked out this much this year. Look at their candidates, all of them might just end up in top ten at this rate."
"What of it? They are still from different academies."
"They might be. But that doesn't matter.
Olympians may fight to death within themselves, but when it comes to crushing the enemies outside of Olympian, they are as tight as they could get. They might as well be from the same academy.
I wouldn't even be surprised if the Olympians decide to host a combined training program for all those kids"
"I wonder how that Sam rallied so many people from Olympian side, look at them go."
The discussions went on and on.
At the battlefield, Thor is standing up after getting beaten a lot.
His clothes are tattered, his fancy armor is nothing more than fragments on the ground. He looked at Sam and White who are still exchanging blows and in the middle Sam using the other students as meat shields.
He then looked at the rest of the group. Watt, Jack, Philip, and the remaining are all toying with the other Academy students. If they wanted, they could have ended the fights a long time ago, instead, they are showing off by playing around with their opponents and in the middle of it, giving Sam a hand with a meat shield.
He grew angry with every passing second and made a decision.
"You fuckers forced me to do this." His charismatic persona has long been in tatters with his armor. Right now he looked like an angry homeless guy on the street. His hammer disappears and is replaced by a completely different one.
This is a bigger-sized battle hammer and it is made out of a dark electric blue metal. The handle seemed to be made out of a bone of similar color. There are runic inscriptions that give off an ancient aura. It seemed like it had an inherent energy of its own and that ancient aura surged into Thor's body.
His fusion formed activated once again, but unlike the regular lightning form which would look explosive and electric, now he looked at some large glowing electric blue object with darker blue lines extending from the hammer's handle into his body creating various runic inscriptions on him.
He looked like an otherworldly being.
Everyone in the battlefield turned to him. The first High-class Divine Weapon came out. Sam smirked at this. He could sense Thor's killing intent directed solely on him.
He is the biggest pain in Thor's ass. Noticing this, the rest of Sam's team became serious.
*BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM*
With explosive sounds, all of them activated their own fusion forms. Watt who is tangled with two opponents, took out his stack of Blood Iron cards. He threw two of them into the air, before he jumped out of their encirclement.
The cards made a huge curve in the air creating a concentrated gale storm while slashing the two opponents in the backs.
The storms rampaged their bodies and the cards landed in Watt's hand as he landed and looked at Thor coldly.
Jack disappeared from his spot, at least that is what his opponents felt. With a single slash, both of them fell down unconscious, ironically there is not a single wound on their bodies.
Philip was much more explosive. Two punches and he put holes through two more opponents. Five elemental King, Saber Monarch, Paras all put an end to the fights. Only Vidyut didn't act out. He knew how important his hidden identity is.
Sam's energy surged and gave White a spinning backkick, sending him flying.
He fell right into the middle of Sam's team members.
He was about to go back and fight Sam, but the next moment, Jack stood in front of him with a pointed sword while the remaining teammates surrounded him.
"You know what to do." Jack said in a low tone.
White looked at Sam. His gaze is cold and indignant, meanwhile, Sam levitated towards Thor. He had a very excited expression on his face. His aura surged and it felt beastly. He was about to make a move and that instant, he felt a spatial force pulling him into darkness.
