Chapter 72 - Better

All the first-year sections were present, and they did not pay attention to C-3 class since they had only studied for three months. It was impossible for them to join the rest of the sections that had studied for five months, or so they thought. Of the fifty first-year students, it could be considered that all of them were members of the elite as students at Fakhr Al-Jeel School, but of course there are those who stand alone, even among the elite.

The first round is a demonstration of skill against a restricted monster, where the student can choose the degree of danger of the forgotten monster, with Grade A being the first category with the highest quality of monsters present for the competition. Without any delay, the students began to form lines around three points to attack the monsters. A student from Grades B–2 First, he chose the medium option, which is a monster with a B grade and a second rating. The student stood up straight and then attacked by forming a large fireball with a pale red color, but the result was good as he was able to inflict great damage on the monster even though he did not kill it. However, he got a good result, so he took out a sword and cut through a C-rank, first-class monster.

It was interesting to see the joy over the students' hunger after eliminating simple, harmless monsters. Above all, these monsters were at the bottom of the pyramid, as the real monster has two letters to distinguish its rank, such as the CC monster, a third classification, although it is considered the weakest among the monsters. True, except that he is about ten times stronger than any monster, grade A, first classification. Those were the thoughts of a boy with harsh and cold features, the miracle boy who survived alone in a city destroyed and invaded by monsters, with his long black hair, his golden eyes with pillar pupils, his luxurious clothes, and which looked like they were made for a king to wear; it was Jutes.

He looked at the scum who called themselves students of the Pride of the Generation School coldly before he moved and crossed the queue, but to his surprise, no one spoke to him, and they all remained silent. Qats walked to the front of the queue and ordered the supervisor to prepare the strongest A-grade monster, first classification, that existed, and the supervisor did so.

At that moment, Gotts was standing in front of a dangerous monster, but he only showed signs of coldness and arrogance as he raised his hand in the direction of the monster, forming a strange black claw around his arm. Kevin noticed that the ability of that arrogant boy was similar to Arthur's, but the color of the energy was different, and he also felt... It was an ominous energy. The next moment, Gotts' arm moved at breakneck speed, tearing the monster to pieces in the blink of an eye. It was an overwhelming force in every sense of the word. After completing the round, Gotts retreated indifferently, while behind him he created a huge noise.

It was good for young people to have an enthusiastic or tough spirit, but as for the boy Qats, Kevin did not see the essence of a hero in him, so he decided to put on a small show as well. When it was his turn, he also asked to bring an A-grade monster, a first classification, which caught the attention of the rest of the students, but instead of ridicule. And the insulting words that Kevin had been waiting to hear fell silent in the room. Kevin looked around in surprise because he thought that they would make fun of him as a student only for three months and then he would surprise them with his strength, or at least that is what he was planning according to his experience from his previous lives.

"This world is really different."

Without wasting any more time, Kevin raised his hands and threw a punch with 6% of the wave force, ending up with the monster like a blueberry pie.

Silence prevailed among the students as they looked at the handsome blond young man with bright green eyes and a masculine face before they began to speak.

"Wow really? Haha, that boy over there is my friend; did you hear that?"

"Damn it, if he has such power, then why does that bald professor insist on bullying me?"

Bill and Sam were both commenting on the event, while Arthur and Michael felt that there was more pressure on them, but giving up was not an option for either of them, so each of them advanced in a different queue to pass the round with a good rating after Arthur killed a second-class A monster and killed Michael. Only through his sword skills was he a third-grade A-grade monster.

Although all the monsters were restricted, not all of the students were able to pass the first round. This is because the time factor is also important. Any student who is late in killing the monster is not accepted, and his throat is severely damaged. Fortunately, Belle passed the round easily; although her ability was simple, she was still lethal, unlike her brother Sam, who could attack using blades of air. However, he decided to try some sword moves, which almost made him fail the round, had Belle not shouted at him to stop clowning. Zack was in a bit of a difficult situation because he specialized in defense, but he managed to hit the monster by stiffening his hands.

With this, they moved to the second round, where the platforms on which they would fight were prepared: twenty wrestling rings surrounded by water and rubber edges to avoid the students harming each other, but at the same time, they could give everything they had in the fight.

There were 48 students out of 50 who qualified for this round, and the matches were prepared randomly by the supervisors. Kevin's first match was so simple that it only took him seconds to throw his opponent into the water. Then he also won his second match to qualify for the quarterfinals. His performance was His comrades also did well, while the performance of that boy with long hair was simply brutal, as he hit the other party with the floor of the ring, which was not rubber, until they surrendered. He also deliberately did not inflict significant damage on them so that he would not be eliminated due to excessive violence. Out of 48 students, 12 qualified for the quarterfinals. This time, Kevin fought against a strong girl who could shoot large spikes from her body at high speed. It was similar to a human pistol, but stronger and more dangerous. Even Kevin needed to use the waves for a second in order to get close to her and carry her in order to throw her into the water, but the girl screamed and said that the water was her weak point, so Kevin put her on the ground and noticed the redness of the girl's face, so he guessed that this might be the reason, so he smiled and said honestly that her scent was fragrant. For a girl who did not shower, at that moment Kevin was subjected to a strong slap that made him see the stars of the night clearly in the day while the girl walked away, saying that she could shower while her face was even more red. Seeing Kevin in that state, Belle could not help but burst out laughing.

Arthur fought against Michael wonderfully. Michael was ready to give his best from the beginning when he called for a tranquilizer gun and fired at Arthur, who in turn was avoiding those bullets by pushing himself using his arms as if he resembled a cheetah. For him, he was trying to get closer to Michael. But the brown boy was not easy to reach. He deceived Arthur and lured him into thinking that he was uncomfortable with close combat, but in reality, when Arthur approached him, he summoned a thin and dangerous sword from the void, but at a horizontal angle that almost made Arthur pierce the sword himself, but he dodged the sword at the last moment. But at the expense of his balance, the moment Michael saw that Arthur had lost his balance, he quickly summoned a thick wooden stick and set out to strike Arthur. For a moment, he thought he had succeeded in doing so, but Arthur had repelled the attack with his gloves, which suddenly ignited and became huge. And thick as if it would devour Michael. This change surprised everyone, even Kevin. How could Arthur have reached this level of control over pure energy? But here lies the trick: After Michael was distracted by his attempt to summon a shield, Arthur spun behind him and kicked him forcefully towards the edge before taking off with the help of his gloves. He quickly continued his strike, but Michael quickly summoned a shield behind him as he tried to stand up, but in one moment, Michael watched in slow motion as Arthur pierced the shield with his punch, which was led by his single middle finger, which was radiating pure, concentrated energy, before he opened his hand and pushed Michael forcefully into the water.

Arthur won the match in an elegant manner and proved that he had improved greatly. The fact that he was able to distract Michael with the amount of energy that made it appear so great and the fact that he finally focused his energy on his middle finger proved that he deserved to be among the best of the school's elite.
