9:00 am
Once it was time, as scheduled, the first battle of the 2nd day of the much-anticipated quarterfinal battles commenced.
"Yesterday, we once again bore witness to why the graduation tournament is held in such high esteem".
"Yesterday, we saw 4 of the best students of Obedin Mystic Academy battling it out for a place in the semifinals and we were all impressed".
"Today again, we are about to witness the remaining top 8 best students of this academy session going head-to-head to fight for a place in the semifinals".
"This morning, we'll first be treated to the clash between the tournament favorite popular known as the Wind Fairy, Morgana Jones, and the peculiar student who is referred to by his course mates as the Bonk Lord".
"This is a clash between one of the best students of the wind department and the only Bonking Rod specialist against the best student of both the wind department and the Tessenjutsu department".
"Duncan Hegemin and Morgana Jones both had a fairly stable tournament run so far, who among them would progress to the semifinals?"
"The answer to that will be answered shortly".
While the commentator spoke, Morgana and Duncan were already being transported in their respective elevators as they soon touched the arena.
Once the elevators descended, both students came out to face each other.
Like the clash between Turan and Roland, Morgana and Duncan spent the first minute just glaring and observing each other.
From the look on Duncan's face, it was clear that he was not too invested in this battle. Duncan fought at his hardest when he was fighting against a horny bastard where he could effortlessly draw on the power of his anti-horny belief.
If Morgana was a horny bastard, then Duncan would be at his best. Just the thought of seeing her continuing to live in the ways of the horny was the greatest motivation that he needed to completely obliterate her.
And only when motivated could Duncan use his more personal skills like his Duncan Sage Art and other anti-horny skills that he created.
When against a normal opponent, Duncan could not fight at his best.
"This battle will be such a pain in the ass". He mumbled in a demotivated manner. "Holy Sage of anti-horny propagandists, help me".
The bell to commence the battle finally rang.
Gong!
"Wind Skill: Floating Leaf!"
Morgana started the battle with her trademark skill.
Once she activated her trademark skill, she blended it with her complementary movement technique as she disappeared like the wind.
Duncan Hegemin did not back down, though he felt demotivated as he was not going against a horny bastard, he still wanted to fight for a place in the semifinals and so could not afford to take this lightly.
Duncan reciprocated and activated his movement technique as he rushed towards his opponent with his bonking rod ready to smack the shit out of her.
Morgana attacked first by throwing both her Tessens from a distance.
Whoosh!
The Tessens moved like the wind, arriving before their target in an instant but Duncan as a wind mystic ability user also was able to react fast enough.
Clang!!!
His ears vibrated to the sound as he barely parried the 2 Tessens at the same time, preventing them from injuring him.
Once he parried them, the Tessens were deflected away but having rewatched the rampage tournament battle and seeing Morgana in action, Duncan took a precautionary measure and ducked before rolling forward.
His precautionary action became his life saver as under Morgana's control, her 2 Tessens returned to her, slicing through where her opponent's head was previously. She was not disappointed by what happened though.
Instead, Morgana was ecstatic because the distance between the both of them was finally breached. Once she caught her Tessens, Morgana attacked.
Whoosh!
Duncan could only hear the sound of the wind blowing as Morgana seemed to have started a dance of death with her Tessens as the lead dancer, she attacked with such speed and ruthlessness like she had no limits.
Duncan could hardly keep trace of his opponent's movements, he could only rely on his intuition to defend and the intuition of a basic mystic warrior was not always accurate, Morgana finally got him after just 2 minutes of battle.
Her left Tessen first cut his cheeks which caused Duncan to grimace in pain, he tried to react but he was not fast enough, Morgana's 2nd Tessen finished the job.
Before Duncan could lose his head, the masters intervened to save him.
After an extremely fast-paced battle between these 2 students, as a lot of people expected, Morgana Jones came out victoriously.
The outcome of the first battle was decided, and the 2nd commenced shortly after the 1st as Rex and Jessica were finally invited to the battle arena.
"Give it up as we welcome Jessica Molotov and Rex Vector to the battle arena to fight for the last spot in the semifinals of the tournament".
Having watched the previous battle, Rex entered the battle arena with a mind free of all worries. The only thing on his head was his opponent and how best he could dispatch her to qualify for the next stage of the tournament.
Perfume freak Jessica was a renowned student of Obedin Mystic Academy. She was strong, but she was more famous for her looks and her perfumes.
She was Morgana's number 1 rival for the position of the most beautiful female in the academy though Morgana never cared about such trivial stuff.
She took her looks and perfume extremely seriously and Turan was her crush, this was a detail that she never hid from the public though Turan never cared about how she felt.
Despite her wayward tendencies, she was a strong warrior and Rex was not about to underestimate her.
Gong!
Once the bell rang, Rex unsheathed Berserker from its scabbard before sprinting towards his opponent. Once the battle commenced, Jessica dropped her feminine beauty-freak personality and became serious.
She was a student of the sword department and water department, but she wielded twin broadswords instead of Rex's single sword proficiency.
She sprinted towards Rex also as she engaged in a contest against the best student in her department. To her dismay, Rex dwarfed her completely in basic swordsmanship and instinctive reactions.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
By complementing her sword attacks with her water skills, she sought to find a breakthrough point but Rex was too solid a warrior for her to break.
After 10 minutes of this stable fast-paced fighting, Jessica got tired and finally released an opening which Rex ruthlessly capitalized on like a vampire.
Whoosh!
Rex performed 2 rapid sword slash and stab to make Jessica lose her weapons, then he performed one last slash aimed at her neck.
Jessica could not react still stunned by her opponent's sudden explosive attack; she was saved by the hidden masters while she was still confused.
After 10 minutes of battle, Rex emerged as the winner. By now, Rex's credibility in the eyes of the spectators was already turning firm.
Rex was now a contender to win the graduation tournament.
After this last battle that left the spectators entertained, the 4 students who qualified for the semifinals of the tournament were finalized.
