Eight people would fight for the spot to go to the semi-finals, and one would get a bye. The numbers were already too uneven.
"Ms. Colorful, I would like to forfeit my right to fight." A classmate of mine has said, voicing her opinion.
"Are you sure?" Ms. Colorful said, confirming whether this was true or not.
"Yes, I'm sure." Now that she had forfeited, eight people were fighting in an even bracket.
"Very well." Ms. Colorful didn't say anything else after that.
Without any more distractions, the next match started without any break. For the first match, Rebecca would be fighting Jane.
Oh, this was a match that I would never have thought of. If Rebecca got too close to Jane, then Rebecca would win.
But if Rebecca couldn't, then Jane would win. So, returning to her old strategy, Jane made a poison cloud as fast as possible as the match started.
Rebecca, like Jane, had maximized her ti by getting to Jane. Teleporting a few steps forward, Rebecca was already near Jane.
Was Rebecca's magic limited to small distances teleporting? No, that couldn't be it. Otherwise, why would everyone here call her the strongest?
There were many ways to overco the short distances of a teleport. Observing Rebecca's movent, I finally knew what Rebecca's magic was.
Rebecca could either stop ti or skip ti. I wouldn't be able to tell unless Rebecca told what her magic was herself, and I doubt she would do so.
Now I know her magic. How far could she stop ti? Or how far could she skip ti? And what was her cooldown for her magic?
So many questions were asked, but none of them I have answers to. Focusing back on the battle, Rebecca was already inches away from Jane.
Rebecca had held her breath pretty nicely. There wasn't any poison affecting her currently.
Jane needed a way to deal with Rebecca pretty quickly. Otherwise, she would lose horribly. Spraying so gas toward Rebecca's eyes, Rebecca dodged it cleanly.
With her ti magic, Rebecca had already won. The match was decided by pointing her dagger at the back of Jane's head. Rebecca had flawlessly won.
The first match ended pretty quickly. Everyone could now see why Rebecca could be dubbed the strongest in our class.
I wasn't worried about her. Her matchup against would be the worst unless she could penetrate my almost impossible mana barrier. After that, she would have no way of beating , even if she could use her magic.
Rebecca had beaten Emily reasonably easily. Most people that weren't convinced about her strength had co in terms of her combat power.
There are now three battles and six people, including . So Ruby, Gold, , Sonya, and two randos were left.
At least one group would be paired with competent people. I didn't mind fighting anyone, but I would prefer two of the three to be unscathed for my next match.
Deciding the next match, Ruby was paired up with one of the randos. Fighting, the battle ended pretty quickly when Ruby brute-forced her way to victory.
The next pair would be Gold and . Just by looking at my matchup, they wanted to fight these right-hand won.
Gold was silently serious when she stared at . I would have done the sa if I faced soone of my caliber.
I had to act a bit serious. Taking out my sword, Gold took out her spear. We both had an artifact from our scavenger hunt a month ago.
Our weapon's strength was similar. With both of us taking our weapons in our hands, both of us were ready.
Right as the battle began, Gold charged in like a maniac. Pointing my sword at Gold, I spamd my sword beam at Gold.
Just from my sword alone, my attack had doubled from my last battle. Not only that, but the speed of my beam also increased.
Gold had a hard ti dodging my attack. While she had dodged them all, she couldn't get toward .
I had positioned all my attacks to stop her movent. Now that Gold was starting to get ntally exhausted, I began stage two.
The number of beams that I had fired almost tripled. I couldn't help but enjoy the struggle that Gold was facing.
Gold was already having trouble dodging my attack. Now that my attack had tripled, my beams were beginning to land.
Being shot by , Gold grunted in pain, unable to resist more of my beams. I had stopped shooting just in case I overdid it.
From the looks of it, Gold had fainted from the pain she had received. Winning my match, I could see Ruby glaring at .
"Charlie, do you need help to recover your mana?" Livie asked out of concern.
"No." I shook my head and denied it. She didn't know my plan, I wish I could tell her now, but that would warrant too much trouble.
With finishing my match, it was the final match for the quarter-final. Sonya had it pretty easy from the opponents she had fought.
The match against her opponent wasn't even close. Sonya had overpowered the random with her artifact magic.
Having , Ruby, Rebecca, and Sonya win ant the four of us would compete for the first spot. I an three since I only wanted third place.
If I fought Rebecca or Sonya right away, I would imdiately surrender. However, if I fought with Ruby, I would use a bit more mana before surrendering.
Ruby and I are friends. It would suck if she were assassinated just because she won this class competition.
And besides, I wanted to flex on her in the world tournant. I wanted to beat her in front of everyone on the big stage.
Sonya could get assassinated for all I care. We weren't that close, to begin with. But if she fought Rebecca, even with her artifacts hitting her was almost impossible. Sonya had no chance against Rebecca, just from their magic alone.
