Chapter 78: Huge Advantage

After their first victory, Colzen Academy's streak continued and they easily defeated their opponents in the second and third round matches.

By this time, they've already garnered the attention of quite a few people and some professional adventurers who were watching the matches to decide where to settle down with their families in the future started to consider Colzen City as a potential base of operations.

"Damn! Colzen Academy is on a hot streak this year! They might easily get top 64!"

"I doubt it, I've watched the matches of Shadowglade Academy and they're just as strong as Colzen."

The people started debating about who would advance to the top 64 in Bracket D, some people rooted for Colzen while some people rooted for Shadowglade.

Finally, after a few minutes, the staff walked closer to Dean Snowcrest and told him that it was time for their fourth-round match against their rival, Shadowglade Academy.

Before letting the Colzen representatives go, Dean Snowcrest repeatedly reminded them not to become overconfident against the representatives of Shadowglade Academy because in a close fight, a slight moment of carelessness might result in one's defeat.

No one would ever want to lose against a rival academy in an important fourth-round match and the dean has already experienced this kind of bitter defeat a few times in the past decade so he didn't want this batch of talented representatives to experience the same fate simply because they got overconfident.

Shye had to admit, the series of easy victories made them slightly complacent so even though he wasn't sure whether he would get to fight in this match, he repeatedly reminded himself that Shadowglade was just as strong as them and that he should prepare himself to fight just in case.

Fortunately, no vital parts were revealed so Allyson wasn't too affected by what happened.

Also, she knew that this would be a common occurrence in the future so she should train her mentality to keep her focus even under such uncomfortable circumstances or she might lose her life.

In the second match, Ren Beckmann fought against a skilled warrior representative from Shadowglade academy.

He got hit by quite a few power blows which left those who supported him on the edge of their seats.

However, after baiting the opponent to use a skill to finish him off, he turned the match around by narrowly dodging the opponent's destructive attack using a skill of his own before mercilessly using [Bloody Stab Lv.3] to inflict a grievous wound on his opponent which almost ended the Shadowglade representative's life.

Fortunately, the medics managed to save the Shadowglade representative's life on time.

Ren Beckmann wasn't an evil person and he didn't intend for the match to end that way but he had no choice.

His opponent was just as skilled as him so if he didn't give it his all to finish off his opponent, he might get finished off by his opponent instead.

After a huge 2-0 advantage against the Shadowglade Academy, Dean Snowcrest and the instructors had wide smiles on their faces and even those who were watching the match from a huge screen inside Colzen Academy were visibly excited.

If they win one more match, then they would be in the top 64 and would enter another golden age for the academy because the budget provided to them by the World Adventurer Association would be way bigger compared to last year.
