Fight(Finale: Part-1)!

Orion took a moment to calm his excited emotions. He felt that if he kept talking to this jerk in the same manner, his own lungs might burst from anger. He knew he had to cut through the tangle quickly.

"You don't have to concern yourself with that. Regardless, are you willing to accept this wager?" Orion fixed his gaze on Alexis, gradually applying pressure.

Nord also chimed in, shouting, "Exactly! Weren't you brimming with confidence? Why are you suddenly afraid?"

"Agreeing isn't an issue. I'm just a little apprehensive about you guys..." Alexis rubbed his chin thoughtfully.

Orion promptly interjected, saying, "There's no need to be afraid. We have no objections whatsoever. Let's sign the contract right away to ensure that nobody can back out."

He tapped his wrist where the chip watch was adorned. With a beep, a white bullet screen emerged, presenting a virtual projection showcasing a series of legal articles listed on it.

Alexis was aware that the laws governing Ember Celestine were entirely distinct from those on Earth. Here, the gambling agreement was also legally recognized, and anyone who dared to breach it would face legal consequences.

In severe cases, one could face arrest and imprisonment. Even in milder situations, it would lead to a loss of credibility, making it increasingly challenging to assimilate into society. Banks would reject your loan applications, and people around you would distance themselves, socially isolating you.

Of course, if the terms of the bet are excessively extreme, they would not be recognized by the law, particularly when they involve endangering someone's life. However, for relatively minor matters such as streaking on a school campus, it would be regarded as a trivial issue and would naturally be acknowledged.

"Bring out your student chip, and let's sign the contract," urged Nord.

Alexis's student chip was integrated into his mobile phone. This chip stored his comprehensive personal information, spanning from birth to the present, including his bank account details, academic records, physical condition, and more. In essence, it served as his identification card within Ember Celestine.

He tapped his phone against the student chips of Orion and Nord, triggering the instant appearance of a contract. Alexis proceeded to enter his password, clicked on the confirmation, and the contract was officially established. From that moment forward, no one was permitted to withdraw or back out.

"Good, the contract is now in effect," Alexis responded.

Nord and Orion exchanged a knowing glance, their sly smiles betraying their immense satisfaction. They eagerly anticipated the forthcoming moment when they would witness Alexis's embarrassment.

In that case, not only will this individual face a beating from Drake, but they will also have to streak on campus, enduring ridicule from the entire student body. There is even the possibility of being mistaken for a pervert by the police, resulting in arrest and potential imprisonment.

"Hmph, this jerk has consistently underestimated our capabilities and mocked us, causing significant harm to our reputation," Orion gritted his teeth. "I want to witness just how great he truly is when the time comes, to see if he lives up to the hype he's created."

Nord shared the same sentiment and even devised a plan to capture Alexis's embarrassing state on camera, with the intention of posting it online to ensure that this individual would gain worldwide recognition.

"This, this!" Evangeline, who was observing from a distance, grew increasingly infuriated. Witnessing Alexis signing the contract with the two of them drove her to the brink of madness. How could this fool be so foolish as to agree to such a contract? Wasn't it blatantly obvious that he was setting himself up for failure?

"Evangeline, don't worry. I have a feeling that jerk is doing this intentionally," Aurora chimed in.

Evangeline paused for a moment and inquired, "Intentionally? Are you suggesting that this is Alexis's strategy?"

"Yes, I've done some online research, and there's a specific fetish among certain perverted men known as 'Raptor Fetish'," Aurora explained, casting a disdainful glance at Alexis. "I suspect Alexis also has this fetish. He's been unable to find an opportunity to fulfill his perverse desires, and now Orion and Nord have presented themselves. Despite his outward discontent, deep down, he's actually thrilled. So, he's leveraging the situation and reluctantly agreeing to it."

A/N*: If you know you know!

Upon hearing this, Evangeline appeared astonished. The explanation seemed reasonable, and she couldn't come up with any counterarguments. Could it be that Alexis was truly concealing his perverted inclinations?

The afternoon class flew by, and almost none of the students in Class 36 of the senior year had any interest in paying attention to the lessons. Their attention was solely directed towards one thing—the impending duel between Alexis and Drake.

At this moment, the area surrounding the Fighting Arena in the southwest corner of the campus was engulfed by a dense crowd. Numerous students who had caught wind of the news hurried over to witness the spectacle. They gathered beneath the Fighting Arena, brimming with anticipation for the upcoming show.

Meanwhile, Drake had already taken his place atop the Fighting Arena. He closed his eyes, channeling his energy, while crossing his arms against his chest. His demeanor exuded calmness and composure, as if he was patiently awaiting Alexis's arrival.

"Who is Drake going to duel with, and why are there so many people gathered here this time?" a student inquired. Having joined the crowd purely out of curiosity, he was unaware of the specifics and sought clarification.

Another student replied, "It is said that he will duel with a student named Alexis, who has only reached the Third Level of Martial Disciple Realm. Drake wishes to seek vengeance for his friend, which is why he has taken his place on the Fighting Arena."

"Really? Has that guy lost his mind? Everyone knows that Drake is an incredibly powerful cultivator at Fifth Level of Martial Disciple Realm with innate divine power. Dealing with him, I fear he can send his opponent to the hospital with just a single punch," another student exclaimed, expressing disbelief.

A/N*: Here divine power doesn't mean, extra power-up. It's just mean he is more powerful than his peers since childhood.

The student expressed his astonishment, finding it difficult to believe.

"That's right! So, that guy is clearly overestimating his own abilities," another student agreed.

"That's why so many people have gathered here, just to witness that guy getting beaten up miserably," the student added.

"In any case, there's no suspense in the fight. The only question is how many moves it will take for Drake to defeat that guy, and how long it will take for him to recover from his injuries," the student concluded.

The students continued to engage in discussions amongst themselves, each offering their opinions and speculations. The buzz of conversations filled the air, creating a lively atmosphere.

"Look, Alexis is here!" a student exclaimed loudly.

A young student approached from a distance, wearing simple white attire that made him look quite ordinary. The remarkable thing about him was his composed demeanor, even amidst a crowd of people; he showed no signs of panic or nervousness.

Walking behind him was a group of students, moving with a grand and purposeful demeanor. They all belonged to Class 36 of Grade 12 and had come to Fighting Arena with Alexis to witness the spectacle after their class.

"You're here."

Drake opened his eyes and gazed at Alexis ascending Fighting Arena from below, displaying a faint hint of surprise. "I thought you would back out at the last moment, but I see you actually have the guts to come. For that, I'll be merciful. I'll only break five of your ribs," he remarked, holding up five fingers to emphasize his point. His tone was both taunting and threatening, revealing his confidence in the upcoming duel.

"I don't need that," Alexis replied calmly, rejecting Drake's offer with a composed demeanor. He seemed unfazed by the threat and determined to face the challenge without fear.

Alexis waved his hand dismissively and declared, "Just come at me with all you've got. If you can even break a single strand of my hair, I'll be impressed. But if you hold back, I'm afraid you won't even last one move against me." His words were bold and challenging, exuding confidence in his own abilities and daring Drake to give it his all in the duel.

"Arrogant!"

Drake let out a cold snort, glaring at Alexis with clear displeasure. He couldn't believe that a mere Third Level of Martial Disciple Realm would dare to speak such audacious words. In Drake's eyes, Alexis's self-confidence seemed unfounded and overblown, fueling his belief that Alexis was deluding himself.

As the match approached, Drake was determined to make Alexis experience true despair. He resolved not to hold back in the duel, intending to teach this young man a lesson he would never forget. For Drake, it was essential that Alexis understood the value of respecting a strong opponent through firsthand experience. The tension between the two contestants escalated, setting the stage for an intense and unforgettable confrontation on Fighting Arena.

Upon hearing Alexis's bold words, the nearby students were rendered speechless. Even on Fighting Arena, he remained unyielding in his demeanor. However, they were aware that if Alexis were to suffer a severe beating, he might end up unable to speak a word ever again. The atmosphere was tense, and the spectators could sense the high stakes of the upcoming duel.

Nord and Orion in the distance, on the other hand, were smirking. They were looking forward to seeing Drake beat Alexis up. They believed that not only would he lose the match, but he would also embarrass himself and be arrested as a pervert by the police.
