Chapter 34 Chapter: 012 The Tournament Starts

A boy in red clothes suddenly drawn a sword from it's scabbard and striked with his sword, creating several afterimages in the air as the sword moved.

The power of his sword art has reached a extremely high level. Each of his attacks could be likened to the attack of someone in the early stage of the Second Realm, a power which could easily defeat a cultivators in the Super Human Realm with just one move.

An old man was watching all the boy's movements as he applauded.

"Not bad at all bad.You've trained you sword art [Thousand Sword Changes] to the half-perfect level. Even if you compare to the other students in the genius class, probably only youhad trained a first rank sword art to such high level." the old man said smiling.

The boy dressed in red was Neleos, he was the first place in the common class tournament and now he was in the genius class, he wanted the first place too.

"It seems that the first place in this tournament is already decided. And from what master said, the one with the perfect affinity had disapeared so i have even more chance to win. i just need to crush that boy, Zaid who had nearly defeated me on the common class tournament." Neleos said with a light smile on his face.

"Nell, your vision is limited. Do not think only of the freshmen." Seeing his disciple had such a low vision, the old man shook his head: "With your strength and talent, your true opponents are student on the second year! you can easily get into the top three freshman, but you'll make me blush if you can't even make it to the top ten."

"Yes! You're right, Master, I'm sure I can make it to the top 10 or beyond." Nileos said full of confidence.

...

In a dormitory in genius class.

An elegant middle-aged woman's voice apeared inside a twelve-year-old girl's head and she said it.

"Ava, the Tournament is starting tomorow, how confident are you?" The middle-aged woman asked.

"Do not worry master, I've hidden my power just for this. I'm sure it's just two or three freshmen who could fight me. Ava's eyes flashed warmly as she smiled.

"I had seen the other students, you just have to worry about the boy with an assessment of God Slayer and the girl who is always on the side of the boy, she is not as she seems. As for Neleos, without his strong, he should not be able to threaten you." middle-aged woman said.

" She is really that strong?"Ava was a bit incredulous.

Being always called a genius, there was only a few people who could enter her eyes, even on the Academy where everyone is a genius.

"Besides, if you have to fight the boy, Elijah, do not be stubborn and give up, after all, I do not want you to get hurt just for this." the middle-aged woman warned.

...

On the day of the tournament.

Aryanna and Zaid had gone to Elijah's dormitory every day trying to wake him up, but even after a week, he was still there sleeping.

"Zaid, go back and find a teacher, the tournament is nearly begining so you need to go. I will be staying here to look after him and remember to tell Ophelia that he has not wake yet."

Zaid knew that with just a few hours before the tournament, it was imposible for Elijah to participate after being in this state for a entire week.

"Okay, like Elijah's teacher, Damian disappeared, then I'm going to tell teacher Emma. see you later."Zaid came out of the dormitory and ran to the second-floor genius class.

Now alone in the room, Aryanna began to examine Elijah to see if there is something wrong with him.

In the end, she sat down beside the bed and watched Elijah slept.

...

By this time, the entire academy was packed with people from various kingdoms and empires who had come to watch the tournament.

Zaid had difficulty passing through the crowd and walking up the stairs to the second floor as he finally reaches Emma's classroom.

"Teacher, Elijah has not woken up yet I do not think he will wake up in time for the tournament and meanwhile Aryanna will be taking care of him."

Emma was busy preparing for the tournament, since she was responsible for the freshmen.

"I understand, go to the stadium and wait. After that I'll call someone from the healer sector.

"Okay." Zaid nodded and walked to the stadium.

...

Just in the middle of the day, everyone had already gathered at the academy stadium, one of the greatest places in the academy. Many of those who arrived were tourists who had come from various places, and some of them belonged to noble families.

The top three in the common class tournament, Neleos, Zaid and Ava, had also arrived and were waiting with the other students.

Even Ophelia and Luna were sitting in the special space for the students of the academy

The stadium had five stages, all of them with a square area of one hundred meters.The tournament had a duration of 9 days, being 3 days of tournament for each year.

Finally, around fifteen teachers arrive together with the Headmaster. These teachers had expressions of interest as they looked at the students of the genius class.

"Hehehe! I heard that there are some quite strong students among freshman. I wonder how many of these students will be defeated."

"I think the boy with the perfect affinity will be the first place and the other two may be from the top 3 in the common class tournament." One of the teachers had said.

"Look! Evelynne, who was ranked fourth amongst the common class tournament, had came"

Evelynne was one of the most popular students in the first year, as she had a beautful face and a charming attitude. As the crowd inspected the girl, they found out that she was emiting energy of the second realm!

Evelynne was one of the most popular students in her first year because she had a beautful face and a charming attitude. As the crowd inspected the girl, they discovered that she was emitting energy from the second realm!

"Divine Beginning ... she is already in the Divine Beginning Realm!" Everyone took a deep breath.

Although the people in the other kingdoms knew that the students of the academy had an incredible talent, it was more than what they expected.

If Evelynne, who was in fourth place was already in the Divine Beginning Realm, then how strong the other three were?

Then the headmaster's voice sounded throughout the stadium. "The genius class tournament is starting now! Today all the freshman will have one battle. So from the twenty-four freshmans in the genius class, only twelve will proceed to the next phase!"

And as the tournament started, Elijah was still asleep.
