Chapter 2058 Debut
A lot of freshmen were stunned.
Because they weren't able to discern that a ghost was even there. They didn't sense any form of energy fluctuations. They couldn't sense the energy of death and dark element from the challenger.
Of course, the black cloak could have been a giveaway. At least, it made sense to them now.
They all felt chills run down their spine. The challenger is a necromancer. Most of the time, necromancers are easy to spot and it is easier to anticipate their attacks. Because more often than not, all of their attacks come from their undead. They have to send a command to the undead which in turn will attack.
That is also one of the major drawbacks of the necromancer and this prompts them to work from behind the scenes.
However, out in the open, this necromancer defeated people and he used the same move again and again. Until someone destroyed the move completely, they weren't able to even find it.
The cloaked guy, or Tamas looked at Pearl and felt impressed. This is one of the new tricks he learned while he was trying to break through. He wanted to take this chance and test the limits of it
"Let's see."
He muttered and raised the stick he held. Dark energy circulated through it and the whole stage glowed with a black gloomy light.
*BOOM*
Pearl shot out her attack. The water morphed into a huge dragon that tried to devour Tamas.
However, several ghosts appeared out of thin air and started hitting the dragon from all the sides. Whenever a ghost hit the dragon, it However, several ghosts appeared out of thin air and started hitting the dragon from all the sides. Whenever a ghost hit the dragon, it disappeared, but it took a part of the dragon's energy with it as well.
By the time the dragon reaches Tamas, it is nothing more than an empty shell.
*SLAP*
He slapped the dragon to the side with his palm and it disappeared into a spray of water.
The next second Pearl made her move once more, this time instead of one large water dragon, several small dragons shot out as they tried to attack Tamas from all sides.
Tamas swirled his staff and the number of ghosts increased. The dragons and the ghosts clashed creating a majestic sight to the spectators. The contrasting glow of black and blue made it much more eye-catching.
They didn't expect such a display when the challenging matches are still between freshmen level people.
After a couple of minutes, Pearl smirked and snapped her fingers.
The dragons halted in their tracks and all of them glowed at the same time. Blue light shot out of them and the light connected these dragons, creating nodes.
Pearl suddenly saw the darkness disappearing from her vision, she also finally realized the damage she had taken until now. Before she could come to her senses completely, she saw an undead come face-to-face to her and slap her.
*PAK*
Contrasting the silence, the slap's crisp and loud noise penetrated the air. Pearl fell on the ground as death energy entered her skin through the slap. Black patterns appeared on her beautiful face. She fell to the ground, unable to move, her body paralyzed.
The referee rushed to get her and injected his own energy.
He is an instructor, which means is already in the Divine Plane Consummate stage. He looked at Tamas angrily. The injection of death energy through that slap has been very precise and potent. It is an easy shortcut to the brain and she could have died easily if he landed a much more lethal hit.
Tamas didn't react to it.
He just sat down and recovered. It is his right as a challenger to recover now that the gatekeepers are taken down. After a few minutes, Vidyuth stepped forward.
They didn't speak or interact. The fight began. The eerie undead attacks and the flashy lighting presented a great battle as they collided. Unfortunately, it ended in a tie to many people's disappointment.
Tamas was about to get off the stage when one of the Deans asked.
"Kid, what is your name? Which Academy do you belong to?"
He asked in confusion. After all, if there is someone out there who can beat Pearl up like that and tie with Vidyuth, then it should have been impossible for them to not know. That kid would have entered the Freshmen tournament and he would have done very well.
"Name is Tamas, as for the Academy... I don't belong to any Academy and I am not interested in joining one as well."
Everyone was stumped. This is the most unexpected answer for them. No belonging to any Academy... A person who entered the Academy realm doesn't belong to any academy but still could kick the asses of people that are categorized as geniuses.
They felt something was off about him.
Tamas went back to his seat and closed his. Just when the Dean was about to ask more questions, a Lady wearing complete red stood up. She had very thick makeup to the point it looked like she was wearing a costume for some weird play.
It is impossible to recognize her facial features unless they use their spiritual sense. However, when the Deans casually spread it, they realized they could not penetrate it, which meant they would have to force themselves into it and it wouldn't look good.
They are confused about how just makeup could obstruct spiritual senses.
It is Jwala, she took the stage and pointed at one of the rankers. Three gatekeepers from that Academy came and a similar situation ensued.
The Deans and seniors sensed something off. They asked for her name and affiliation. She gave her name and told her she had no affiliation with any academy.
They understood that their suspicions might be correct and they completely believed in those suspicions when Kiran stood up and did the exact same thing. Sia and Gyan repeated the process after that.
The Deans felt exhausted.
They already had enough on their plates with the existing competition between the freshmen. But the actions of these people who just came out of nowhere and claimed to not belong to any Academy are giving them a new headache.
