Chapter 196 - 185

It was a friendly match but suddenly the atmosphere that was supposed to be a simple exhange became a fierce fight. The Rose thought about taking this easy but their opponent took it differently. 

Qin Shi, the Captain of the Blues was someone that one should be aware off. If any given opportunity was presented to him, he wouldn't let it slipped away. Piero knew this but he still let down his guard, he didn't want to let their team exhausted as this was just a warm-up match but … there was nothing he could do if his teammates were now all thrilled to take this seriously.

"Twins, you handle Rize and Sevi!" The red-headed Captain commanded the Chang brothes while he took Qin Shi as his opponent.

"Yes, Captain! But we aren't twins---"

The floating ball was left their hanging while the fight turned heavy, cheers resounded on the audience area as they felt the heated game, the two teams weren't even holding back compared to their earlier actions.

A young man with striking dishevelled appearance was the most noticeable scene on the match, it was not just because of his unique movement technique but he was also taking two opponents at the same time. And what was cool upon this situation was, those two were being played by this one person.

He had a nonchalant aura while effortlessly dodging the fire ball and water splash that were coming in his way. 

"That's Fu Chen. It may not be obvious but he's difficult to deal with in intellectual category. He was the one of the lucky few who was still placed in his specialty." Lemon said when he noticed that the silver haired young man was watching Fu Chen's match.

The screen monitor in there box was displaying three matches at a time, which it highlighted each every fight of the two teams.

"But he just joined the Rose, don't worry about that one match. Berry defeated him so you can too," Feng Zi interjected, cheering for the silver haired young man.

Lemon immediately added, "Well, he's just a second year so I'm not sure of his capabilities other than that but you just need to watch out."

The Intercompetition happened once in three years but it could be said that each Charmers grades were arduous to passed. The normal average for the curriculum of each grades were three years as every grades had their own levels so it was normal for Fu Chen to be a second year while he was still in first year last Intercompetition.

Chun nodded while her attention was still in the fight of Fu Chen. Her eyes were following the long haired youth who was facing the latter. The youth was a fire Charmer specialized in target shooting but he couldn't pin point the next movement of the other but he still kept shooting randomly with his fire ball. 

Fu Chen with his bored expression, calmly walked back and forth and then with his movement technique, a slight nudge of his foot. He shortened the distanced between him and the fire Charmer.

"He will be eliminated." She whispered but somehow her teammates heard it. Even Lemon and the others were surprised that Fu Chen was also capable in combat.

The long haired youth with a smug smirk was praising his success as the dishevelled appearance young man who had been bearing a bored-look, finally entered his field of target. Initially, he was stunned by the latter's movement technique knowing that this guy was best in the intellective segment. But one shouldn't expect much with these nerds, although he was good but he was still rough in the edges.

He had still fallen in his trap. 

The long haired youth was about to activate his fire trap yet he was a second late. He only discovered that he was sent flying out the high-platform.

Now the number of the players were tied. 

Six members vs six members.

Though, it wasn't even a minute when the water Charmer that Fu Chen had been facing off was the next one to be eliminated.

"Wooahh…" The silver haired young man exclaimed as she realized the other's ability.

It was a norm for members of each teams who would be a contestant in the Intercompetition had their own special abilities which was still related on their charms. In the Alliance, it was called gained abilities while in the other teams had their own name on it. Like the Rose who had been a rival of the Alliance, their 'gained abilities' were called special skills. 

And it also differed on how would they obtained it, the Alliance obtained those abilities through the ability simulation while other teams had their own way of having it, it could be through a secret manual from their ancestors or any method that could be used. Although, it was good to have a special skill but it was also one of the qualifications of being able to participate in the Intercompetition.

This was the pre-destined requirement of the Supreme Ruler and no one would dare to oppose it.

"What have you discovered?" Lemon asked the other while a notepad and pen was on his hands, ready to take note the silver haired young man's words.

Chun recalled that this young man with a messy-look was the one that Lemon had described to be having a metal charm. A rare sub-type charm ability.

Considering that the dishevelled-looking man who looked harmless was just a second year and he participated in the intelletual category, having this kind of offensive kind of charm ability was unfitting with him.

"Then if this intellective segment is purely your mental intelligence with no charm attach as well as the doubles being purely duels. How did you knew?" 

Chun asked with curiosity. 'How did Lemon knew about his ability if he was merely a newbie?'

As what she understood, that the doubles were purely clashing of charms and skills while the intellectual category was for mind games and the team battle were a mix of the two. 

The silver haired youth had a bit of a hunch but she just wanted to confirm it.

The black mist girl who was just listening by the side, interrupted. "Who briefed you that?" She was frowning while looking at the second prince who was now looking away.

No one answered as it was already obvious. The always cool-headed and ȧssertive second prince and also their Vice Captain for the first time failed in his duties. After they had trained the silver haired young man, the youth was supposed to undergo about the briefing of the Intercompetition but this fool of a older brother was so excited of his younger brother that he forgot.

Chun was even more ignorant about this case. 

Notalie didn't pursue the problem as she sighed.

"Chun as the new member, after completing the your training and the shool charm competition. You will supposed to be enlightened about the Intercompetition. We ȧssumed that you knew already beause you had been agreeable with the tactics…" Lemon explained to the oblivious silver haired young man.

With a defeated sigh, the curly haired youth explained the details that was omitted.

"So you mean that it wasn't just a mere mind games in the intellective segment?" 

"Ahuh." Lemon nodded while his curls cutely bounced on his head.

"Then as well as the doubles…" Looking at the silver haired young man's frowning face, the sluggish strawberry haired young man suddenly interrupted.

"I admit that his difficult to handle." After Berry said that, he went back to his nap.

"Chun, about your question earlier. It is through Berry that I knew his charm. He seemed to be well-adept in his metal charm that you wouldn't able to detect it while he was using it."

"Right, what have you discovered with his movement a while ago?" Lemon once again asked.

"I'm not sure but it would be somewhat similar of a displacement technique but I think he is a dual charm user?" 

"Really?!" The curly haired young man immediately noted it down as he was happy with his another new information.

The second prince who heard that suddenly turned to the expressionless long black haired, "Captain, should change plans?"

If what the silver haired young man stated was true then, the team battle last tournament was given light.

It was hard to admit but their battle between the Rose was one-sided that time, Feng Zi had been in dilemma while he kept remembering it and even the others were confused as well. The plan went well but when they were about to seize the key to enable the fifty pointer red flag, the ȧssumed red flag turned into a blue flag. At that final juncture, all of their flags were replaced which was the supposed to be flags of the opponent and then their points were truly puny compared to the Rose.

They had complained as they had thought that there must be a cheat here or something but the coordinators that time said that this was just purely an ability, there was no any detected schemes.

The Alliance knew that the Rose wouldn't be that petty in the actual tournament but they had been truly confused to what happened but now that the silver haired young man had said that then this unlikely Fu Chen must really a dual charmer as he was the only newbie that at that moment which they had been unaware of.

Berry who had been napping suddenly put his thumb up, agreeing at Chun's conjecture.
