"This is pretty damn humiliating!" A teacher said as he counted the students.
There wasn't much competitors anymore. The only few that remained could be counted down by one's fingers.
There was Henry, Arthur, Wilson, Alex, Xavier, the two B class students, one C and finally a D student.
The numbers didn't even complete both hands!
"What might have caused them to co to such a decision?" Thomas asked as he carefully glanced at the students, "Were they strong ard into making this choice or was it their own intention?"
"What do you think is the cause!" Jennifer said and pointed angrily towards , "This guy is the one that's at fault! We should bla it all on him!"
"Woah woah, Ms. Jennifer… why so angry, huh?" I say innocently, trying to rile her up.
"Why you say? Tell , wasn't it you who proclaid himself like a big man the other day! Because of you, every other student shat themselves and left!" Jennifer said flinging her arms around in anger.
"You can't put all the bla on now."
"I can't?" She sarcastically asked.
"Yes… I for one have a right to challenge them out in the open." I say, defending myself, "If they can't even take my challenge seriously and wuss out, then they shouldn't be in the exam to begin with."
"You could even say, I cut of the weak herd for you." I smile as if I was right.
"Is that so?" She smiled too, "Then in all honesty, I should send you out there to fight everyone all by yourself, since you think you're so great. Why don't you just go out and-"
The other teachers quickly held on her angry figure and stopped her from doing anything crazy.
"There there, Jennifer. You can't get angry at the boy's words." Thomas said.
"Besides, he's right." Harold said.
Harold Graydol was the second person that was with Thomas back in the Chancion Competition. The guy believed in might and as well in honor.
He liked that fact that Henry challenged them. It was a good way to increase the bonding between academy mates.
"We don't need those students to fight. All that we need are right in this room with us."
I curiously look at Harold. It was surprising to see that soone who went against my Fang Bang actually helping her biggest supporter. Though he didn't know who I really was.
"Okay, I get it." Jennifer said, getting their hands to leave her, "But what will we do now?"
She looked lost at the number of students, "With so few students, how will we go through the next two exams. With the numbers still left, we don't even know if we can do one exam when there's still two left."
"About that," Wilson said as the teachers looked at him, "Taylor will be joining us, he's just preparing his weapon for the exam so it's taking him a bit longer."
"See that," Harold said, "With the Taylor boy, we will have 10 students. Surely that would help us out."
"Yeah it does… but it still isn't enough for this exam." Jennifer said quietly.
"Then we skip it."
"Huh!" All teachers looked at Thomas who said it.
"If there isn't that many students left then we have no choice but to skip it." Thomas said.
"But that would leave the next exam as invalid-"
"It doesn't matter." Thomas cut off the teacher.
"The main factor of this exam is for one student to beco the overall victor and get to Class A, right? Then isn't it better that we now have few students."
Thomas looked back at us, "Our job as teachers is to find the best one among them and from what I saw yesterday, this batch were the most talented."
"So it's actually better that we don't have more students, it cuts our ti by a few days and we also have the most talented students fight amongst themselves."
"That's right." Harold nodded.
"If you think clearly about what Thomas said," The teacher who had ridiculed Arthur yesterday spoke, "It's actually less troubleso for us."
"We get to watch talented students fight and show their spirits… I'm more than okay with that." Mrs. Longbottom said as she gave a sneaky wink at .
"Yes, I'm okay with it too!"
"We can finish our project without any problems."
"If we work together than it might even be better than before."
Seeing all the teachers accepting the change, Jennifer nodded too.
"If all of you agree with it, then I see no reason to reject this." Jennifer said and pointed angrily at again, "Just don't go around doing so weird thing above the arena again, okay?"
I smile devilishly, "I promise to be good, Ms. Jennifer. Just make sure to rember."
"What?" She raised her brow.
"Our Bet?"
At that, her eyes sharpened. "I wouldn't dream of forgetting it."
I only smile in kind to that.
"Oh my? Teacher Jennifer made a bet with a student." Thomas smiled cheekily, "So the rumors are true then."
Jennifer blushed at that.
"It's quite surprising, but regardless we accept her for it." Harold said, hugging her shoulder in a joking manner.
She shook it in mock anger, "Don't act so high and mighty yourselves. I also know of the dealing that you guys do as well."
"Hahaha… seems like we're caught too." Harold and the others smiled while we looked at them with less regard.
"Do they still know that we're here?" Wilson asked.
"Probably not." Alex said.
"Let them have this." I say, "Their lives can only be as exciting as this goes. It's quite sad."
But it seed that they really did rember we were there. Because they were looking at with obvious hatred.
"Bang!"
The door opened up and Taylor ran inside, "Sorry for being late!"
"Are you Taylor?" Thomas asked.
"Yes, sir."
"Good, we were just waiting for you. Stand in line with the others and get briefed by them. We'll call you guys when we finish making the matchup." Thomas said as the teachers left the room, leaving us alone by ourselves.
"What happened?" Taylor asked, feeling sothing strange has happened.
"Your large friend there, scared off all the other competition." Jeffery explained in an easy manner. "Now we get to skip one exam and directly participate in the final one."
"Wow! You beat them?" Taylor asked .
"What? No! I didn't beat them. They pussied themselves because of my challenge."
"Oh that?" Taylor nodded in understanding, "I can understand them, you really are a scary figure."
"Is that s-"
"I hope you don't give speeches at any event or it might get cancelled."
"…"
…
"Hello there, folks. It's , Falbic Fants, your comntator for today's fights." Falbic said as he stood at the center of the arena, speaking to all the students and other people that have joined the arena.
"We have a slight change of plans. Initially we wanted to held the third exam today but that is cancelled."
"The academy thought it would be better if we cut off all the weak weeds and go straight to the real fights… so here we are."
"The losers have been thrown off and we'll start straight into the final exam, The One-on-One Fights!"
"Whoo!"
Hearing the surprising change, everyone cheered. What the academy first thought would be a massive downturn, they quickly turned it into cheers.
"So without further ado, let's call in our first fighters."
"It's a fight of different classes but sa ranks."
"Class B Rank 2 against Class D Rank 2."
"Jeffery Stamp VS Abraham Good!"
