Chapter 225 Third-Year Round Begins

The second year round of the competition had finally come to an end with nine students making it to the next round and now it was time to start the third year round of the competition.

Luis was really looking forward to the third year round of the tournament because that was the class with the strongest students in the academy.

He may have fought against and won against the strongest student in the academy but she wasn't the only strong third-year student and she also didn't have the most exciting of abilities.

"Now it is time for the strongest students in the academy to face each other in the final round of today." Lieutenant Kate said. "The first fight will be between Florence Paul and May Pai."

The two female students didn't waste time in walking to the pillars as soon as their image had been displayed on the screen and their names had been called.

Florence was a tall slim girl with really dark hair while May was also tall but not as tall as her opponent and had slightly brown hair.

Florence was from the physical combat class while May was from the soul weapon class.

The countdown began as the two girls began to walk around their axis and as soon as the countdown was done May slammed her hand into the ground to create a puncture.

It didn't take long before the ground began to break as something was heading towards Florence from underneath.

Florence knew what was about to happen as she did a flip to avoid the chain that had suddenly burst out from where she was standing.

She summoned her shield as she was falling and used it to form a shield which she used to slide on the chain before jumping off to the side.

Her shield vanished from her hand as she formed a large blue ball in her hands and sent it toward May.

The ball was large and most of the students thought she was going to have a hard time avoiding it but that was the case as she stomped her foot on the ground and disappeared into the ground as the ball continued moving and crashed against the wall.

"You didn't think I was going to let that trap of yours hit me," May said as she burst through the ground below Florence knocking her back in the process.

"Owwww." Florence groaned as she tried to get up from the floor.

"You know there's a big difference between that fight and any other fight I've seen so far." Ace said.

"Yeah, they are more experienced with using their abilities," Monica said.

'How did she do that with her earth ability?' Luis thought.

'It's earth ability, she simply controlled the earth underneath to clear her part and come up to the point where she wanted to come back up again, I'm sure you can also do it.' Lena said.

'Yeah, but my earth points would be exhausted before I could come back up, and then I would be stuck underground.'

May extended her chain towards Florence who still hadn't gotten up to try and wrap it around her but she had summoned her sword and shield with which she used to block the chain.

May pulled her chain back and extended it again this time wrapping it around Florence's sword and throwing it far away from her.

Florence tried to use her shield to protect herself but another chain had come from the side and knocked the shield off her hand.

She quickly stretched her hand and picked up the shield but before she could do anything with it both chains had wrapped around her.

It was now a battle of strength as May had the advantage as the one holding onto the chains.

Florence was trying not to get pulled closer by her and was trying to use her leg as a wedge but that only seemed to be slowing her down a little as May was still pulling her closer.

"Mmmmm." Florence moaned as she held onto one of the chains with her right hand and her shield in her left hand trying to stop herself from moving and then break free from the chain.

Her right hand started to suddenly glow with a blue glow that was transferred to the chain and was heading towards May who quickly dropped the chains to prevent the blue glow from getting to her.

Florence used the opportunity to her advantage as she sent another large blue ball heading toward May.

She knew May was going to repeat the same thing she had done the first time which was why she had already planned something for that.

She stomped her foot on the ground ready to go underground as Florence placed her shield on the ground and flung it towards her.

The shield went through the ball heading for May and hitting her in the head before she could disappear into the hole she had created.

Florence waited for a while before walking to the hole to see that May was lying inside it and it was clear she had passed out.

"Nice smart move from Florence to emerge victorious." Lieutenant Kate said.

Florence was brought up by an earth pillar as May was carried away by the medical team.

"Alright, next will be." Lieutenant Kate said, waiting for the images to stop. "Carlos Larson Vs Pearl Reeves."

'Alright.' Luis though, getting a little excited.

Nicole and Michael were back at Michael's lair now and right now they were going through all the footage on the monitor and Nicole just couldn't bring herself to comprehend everything she had watched so far.

They were watching every footage of Zach and his mates beating up students and they were also watching the ones where Carl and his mates would beat the students up after they had made the reports.

Right now they were watching the footage where Luis had gone to check out the report department and had gotten attacked by Carl and his mates.

Michael didn't seem interested in the footage as he had already watched it but Nicole was quiet and was watching it with great interest.

She watched it up to the point where Luis had knocked all of the students out and had used his earth ability to return the ground to normal.

"So all this has been going on and he has been trying to take care of it on his own.' Nicole said after turning to Michael.

"Yeah and yet you guys claim to have perfect management," Michael said.

"We do have perfect management, Michael," Nicole said.

"Oh really, then what happened to all the complaints those children sent to you through the complaints department?" Michael asked.

"That's the problem, we never got any of those complaints," Nicole said.

"You never did?" Michael said, sounding confused now.

"Yeah."

Michael was quiet as he placed his hand on his chin and stroked it a bit.

"Do you think?"

"It has to be," Nicole said with a nod already aware of what he was about to ask.
