As the situation intensified, a professor swiftly teleported to the scene, deploying a barrier in front of Alex to prevent any further harm to Quinton.
"Please step back, Alex. Any more than this could result in your expulsion," the professor warned, his wand pointed firmly at Alex. Beads of sweat rolled down his face as he attempted to assert control.
The overwhelming intensity of Alex's aura was palpable, casting doubt on the professor's ability to contain the situation. Combat department professors rushed toward the arena to assist.
Amidst the tense standoff, Alex maintained his intense bloodlust, causing Quinton to quiver in fear. Alex then turned his focus to Aria and made his way over to her. His aura gradually subsided as he knelt to check on her condition, leaving the approaching professors stunned by the abrupt change.
"Are you okay?" he asked, genuine concern in his voice.
