Ranking Tournaments 1

The wind blew coolly around the arena. The crowd were jittering with excitement. The atmosphere was filled with vigorous energy.

One woman sat in the stands with an expressionless face. She had white beautiful flowing hair.

'Lenin still isn't here? That boy, his destiny is just too hard to keep in check'

Freda thought to herself.

"First round of the tournament, Number 47 vs Number 6" Mrs. Fleek shouted out loud.

Immediately the crowd quieted down. A girl in a tight white jacket stepped forward. A black belt was tied on the waist. The white jacket was long and only stopped at her ankle.

Her fist was clenched tightly, with the demeanor of an unstoppable monster. Her purple hair was tied beautifully into a bun.

"Number 47, Kira Amano, here!"

She shouted.

Immediately she said her name, chatter broke throughout the arena.

'Kira Amano? Could it be!'

'Its her! I recognize her from TV. The daughter of the head of the lion tribe of the beast men!'

'Look over there! In the VIP area, that's Charles Amano, her father!'

Slap!

'Fool! You can't just mention his name like that'

As the people in the crowd continued to chatter, a pressure was released. It was Ms. Fleek!

"Silence!" She said.

The whole arena quieted down immediately.

"Student number 6, come forward"

A plain looking young boy arrived. He wore a yellow shirt with a jeans trousers.

"Mikel Crosgo of Class 1-F, here!'

He said as soon as he was on stage.

"Fighters ready! Remember, no killing! Now, fight" with this, Ms. Fleek hopped of the stage.

Kira scanned the plain looking young boy. He seemed to be about twelve years old. Above all, he looked weak. How did a boy like him get into the school?

After a few minutes, Kira opened her mouth;

"You can't defeat me. Just give up. I'm from the A class, while you are from Class 1-F"

Mikel didn't say anything. He merely looked at her. This greatly irritated Kira.

'Tch! Who those this boy think he is, I'll have to teach him a good lesson'

With anger boiling in her, she shouted out;

"3rd circle magic! Berserker!"

Immediately a purple aura was released from her. Her muscles became stronger as all her physical abilities were strengthened.

The crowd was shocked.

'What? She's using Berserk? A 3rd circle magic? On a no named brat?'

The crowd was stunned.

Princess Swallow-heaven sat with her left leg crossed over her right leg. She supported her head with her right hand which was on her cheek. She was smirking.

'Foolish child. Did she think that she was strong just because she was in the A class?'

Princess Swallow-heaven thought with a shake of her head.

Kira rushed towards Mikel. She jumped into the air while bearing her fist down at him.

BOOM! BOOM!

Explosions rung out. Dust hovered in the air and blocked the sight of the onlookers. Only the fairly strong cultivators could see what was happening.

The people in the crowd was sure the boy had been defeated.

The smile hadn't disappeared from Princess Swallow-heaven's face as she observed the scene that unfolded before her.

The dust begun to clear.

'These children understand nothing. If the class allocations were purely based on strength, then there would be no need for the ranking tournament. Class allocations is based on pure talent, and not battle prowess. That means, anyone from another class can be stronger than you!'

Princess Swallow-heaven's eyes glittered with interest as these thoughts went through her mind.

The dust finally cleared up. And what unfolded shocked the crowd to it's core.

'What? How? He blocked an attack from an Amano!'

'Wait! What's that yellow shield blocking her fist?'

'No! Could it be? The 2nd circle magic spell, Flawless Shield'

'Flawless shield? I've heard of that spell. Isn't that the spell that is harder to train than a middle grade 3rd circle spell!'

Kira's eyes were wide with shock. She didn't know how to react to this situation. Initially, she was sure she could defeat him with one punch. But now she didn't know what to do.

Mikel let out a breath of air. He lifted his head and looked straight into the eyes of Kira.

"Is that all?" He said.
