After witnessing the previous epic battles, everyone was excited for the semi-finals. During the break, everyone finished their lunch and rested for some time. No one had any opinion about Rishi moving to the finals; all four were his friends and didn't care about it.
All four participants moved to the stage. The commentator announced, "Attention everyone, the battle log is about to be announced. Are you guys as excited as me?" The crowd cheered in response. The lights dimmed before the big screen lit up, and the ball was announced on it.

"Vinay will face Manu for the first match. Both are members of the All-Stars, and this battle would be interesting. On one side is Manu, who is an excellent swordsman, while his opponent is Vinay, the mystery Black mage. The next battle would be even more interesting: Best Swordsman vs. Best Mage. Who among them will be able to defeat all their opponents and qualify for the final battle? We will know soon enough," said the commentator.
Vinay and Manu both appeared on the stage, and they both knew each other quite well and were part of the same guild. They didn't have any personal bond; Vinay was someone who didn't talk with anyone other than Rishi. They both knew each other's fighting styles quite well, as they had fought together many times.
"I never knew I would have to battle against you," said Manu.
Vinay laughed, saying, "This is a surprise, but it will be fun; I have not fought against many spearmen." I would recommend you go all out because I will not hold back."
"That will be for the best," said Manu as he took out his white-colored Spear that looked very simple from the outside, but once looked closely, it looked like it was made up of only one single material from top to bottom. It was as if it were made from the bone or spike of a giant Magic beast. It had three black-colored rings attached that had strange runes engraved on them.
Next, he equipped his black-colored metallic armor with a beautiful design. The last item he chose was his leather boots, with blue-colored runes inscribed. Besides this equipment, he was also carrying other things, including his lower body armor, helmet, and a large quiver on his back.
Multiple sharp, black-colored, pointy weapons became visible. They were larger and stronger than arrows. While he was carrying additional items, this didn't break any rules, as these were simple items without any properties; they didn't raise any stats or have a skill.
Vinay, like previously, chose his staff, ring, and long black Robe. They both looked at each other before informing the rest that they were ready. With the sound of the whistle, the battle started. Manu was very fast; he appeared close to Vinay in no time. His Spear danced in the air, shining in black.I think you should take a look at
'Crack,' the sound of bones breaking, appeared. The next moment, Vinay could be seen surrounded by a cage made up of Bones. He then chanted something, and the Armored Skeletons appeared once again. He didn't stop there and summoned a regular skeleton far away.
A black smoke released from Manu's Spear as he moved his Spear in the air. He destroyed an Armored
skeleton with one swing before striking his Spear in a circular motion. A blast of black energy was released that pushed other Armored Skeletons away. The Dark energy concentrated on the tip of his Spear. His Spear then came straight toward Vinay and released a powerful Blast of energy. The Bone cage was destroyed, and the Spear moved towards Vinay.
At the last moment, Vinay created a hand sign, and next, an explosion occurred. The pieces of bones scattered away. Everyone was shocked when a skull rolled on the floor and appeared before Manu's feet; Many believed it was over, but what happened next surprised them; they heard a laugh. "Nice Try, that was close."
Everyone was surprised, but what happened next was even more surprising, As if he had predicted everything. Manu's hand moved in a blur. It only appeared as if he had thrown something. A black-colored ray moved and appeared before Vinay, but just as it was about to hit Vinay, a shield of Bones appeared before him.
'Boom, an explosion took place. Pieces of bones scattered, and a javelin passed away, Vinay. "It looks like you like explosions," said Vinay before he created a hand sign and chanted a spell.
Manu moved away from his previous spot, dodging the hands made up of bones appearing there, but he didn't stop there. He used his defensive skills, and a dark shadow appeared behind him. "Boom", "Boom", " Boom!" The Armored skeletons exploded one after another, releasing multiple Sharp bone pieces. Manu was able to defend, but he was pushed back.
"Did you see that? If my eyes are not betraying me, I believe we have one more addition to the elite group of students that awakened Aura in the first year. This battle is also very entertaining; they both are giving their all," said the commentator.
Ronny was silent because he didn't know what to say. He was surprised the most. Which secret elixir was the academy feeding these students to have so many of them awaken Aura? He could imagine the future this academy would have. He decided to change his mind; he now wanted to make good connections with this academy.
He never really disliked this place. He had spent three years here and had many good memories. I thought it would be fun to brag in front of the juniors, but now he believed he needed to become a good senior brother. It would be better for him to make connections with them.
With his newly changed mindset, he decided to get the attention of both participants. The Spearman is brilliant for going all out from the start. I also liked his fighting style, using javelins to target the opponent from far away while using a spear at close range."
"His battle talent is also extraordinary. All his moves are fluid and carry a blanched force with them. The Mage is also outstanding; I have never seen a black mage like him. He knows how to make good use of each spell he has, and I am eager to witness this battle to the end," he added.
Every commentator opened his mouth wide in disbelief when he heard Ronny talk about a U-turn in his attitude. Before, he pointed out mistakes, but now he was complimenting them. The audience likes this version of him more, and soon everyone forget his rude attitude at the start.
