"Long live the bonk?"
"Long live the bonk?!"
"F*ck! How can he be so shameless?!"
Ben was frustrated as he listened to the foolish blabbering of his rival.
After an admirable fight against a powerful opponent, Ben Carter finally bowed out of the graduation tournament. Though the commentator heaped praise on his performance, none of that was on Ben's head at the moment.
He didn't even care much about the fact that he just lost the graduation tournament, he was just that carefree.
To him, his image before girls was more important than anything in the world, including graduation tournaments, work, and everything called important.
In this battle against Duncan, everything that Ben cared for was at stake!
Duncan advocated an end to horny which went against his sensibilities from every direction possible. Duncan was his rival to prove the supremacy of horny, losing against this opponent was a horrifying outcome but it happened.
Even after giving his best, even after fighting above his best due to the stakes involved, he still lost and this infuriated Ben to no end.
At this moment, he felt like a bug was just dumped into his mouth, the feeling was awful, too awful to tell.
He was already feeling awful, but on turning to look at the footage, seeing the nonsensical ending speech from his opponent, Ben almost puked blood.
"How dare he say long live the bonk?!"
Now, Ben's head was literally on fire as this made him explode in anger.
Most of the spectators for this round of the tournament were gathered in the Obedin Mystic Academy where the battle was broadcasted live.
The battle was also being broadcasted in other parts of the city but the academy saw the most traffic.
After being eliminated, like the other students who were eliminated, Ben was teleported back directly to the academy where he could spectate with the others. So, as he raged due to having lost, everyone saw him.
At this moment, in the VIP row of seats in the spectator stands, a prestigious woman in a blue luxurious gown sat as she watched the proceedings of the tournament with a gentle smile constantly on her face.
"I like his spirit". She chuckled slightly while turning to face the man that sat beside her, this man was Principal Dominic of the Obedin Mystic Academy.
A woman who was qualified to sit beside the principal had to have such a high status that she was a legend, this woman was the Wandering Moon Queen.
On getting the principal's attention, she continued.
"Though his source of motivation is stupid, it makes me like his spirit. If he continues like this, he may become someone big someday".
Even while he raged, Ben was not insensitive enough to not have looked at the VIP stands yet. This was why even amidst his rage, he heard it.
"Did she just say, I like his spirit?"
"Woah..., damn!"
Instantly, Ben felt his grievances evaporating like the wind. The legendary Wandering Moon Queen was a powerful mystic warrior, but she was also a beautiful lady, she was a mature lady of great beauty.
Though she was probably old enough to give birth to Ben, he was not a picky person, Ben grinned on hearing that compliment from her.
Despite the distance, his ears never failed to catch a lady's compliment.
Ben finally turned to leave to the spectator stands, but while he left, he pushed his chest out a bit while trying to push his chubby belly fat in. He wanted to look his best at this moment, who knew if he could impress her.
Besides all that, he did the iconic walking stance of his best movie icon.
Unfortunately for him, he failed to garner more of her attention but he did gather some other attention.
"Ben, you fought so heroically".
"Oh…, Sarah, thanks for the compliment".
"Do you mind me walking you to the stands?"
"No, not at all".
Sarah supported the exhausted boy as they both happily walked to the stands to watch the proceedings of this phase of the tournament.
…
Shortly after Ben was eliminated, the situation of the battle in the Hillbilly Forest seemed to have experienced a spiking change as it started turning critical.
When it first started, most of the students were preoccupied with making their plans that they would use to tide the fierce storm of this battle to emerge among the top 4 that would qualify for the quarter-finals. free(w)ebnovel(.)com
This was the reason why the battles were a lot tamer then, but like Ben, when their plan was finalized, they finally started implementing them.
Once the implementation phase started, clashes became a lot more frequent as the students vied with all their might to settle on that top 4 spots.
40+ students started this phase of the tournament, but once the frequency and intensity of clashes increased, half were slashed out in no time.
In this tournament, a lot of students got to shine as they showcased their power before the spectating audience, using their fellow students as stepping stones while the others could only try and fail miserably.
The students knew that hiding would not get them points, they needed to fight, eliminate and get points which forced all of them out of their hiding.
Groups like the one formed by Rhode Foster were not uncommon as the students sought shelter in numbers to increase their chances of a top 4 spot.
Not all these groups had a leader as tyrannical as Foster though. After failing to eliminate Rex and Cassandra, she was angry but this did not hold her down as she continued her hunt for other students with her companions.
Her group was the most successful by far as they eliminated one student after the other. It was like they were unstoppable, until they met someone.
Morgana Jones was having a fairly stable run in this tournament so far. Once this phase of the tournament started, unlike others, she came up with her attack plan instantly as she went on the hunt fearlessly like a Lion.
Even though all her opponents tried to escape after seeing her, she already eliminated 8 students and stood at the top with the highest points. freewebnove l.com
For the past few minutes though, she had not been able to eliminate a single opponent because all those remaining already banded into teams.
Even for her, she could not eliminate multiple students easily. This was why she stalled and it frustrated her and was the reason why she changed her plan now.
Though she disdained it, Morgana now wanted to join her own group.
Once she made this decision, about 2 minutes later, she met her first target and it was a team of 4 including a student whom she was familiar with.
Once she saw Foster, Morgana changed her plans instantly. The opponents had not discovered her yet which gave her a huge advantage.
Morgana recognized a powerful opponent when she found one. She was proud of her strength but she always tried not to be arrogant.
For this one, she decided that ending it with an ambush would be the fastest and safest way for her to take over this group.
Her target was none other than Rhode Foster!
