379 A Bit Late"Class 2 is winning this," Some of the students who were watching the fights spoke.
"They have killed over 50 D Rank Monsters," He said, looking at the score.
Damian, Amelia, and Lishia were the only team that had three rankers in one team.
Matthew was also participating in Class 5, but for some reason, Sam wasn't on the team.
"We have a good chance this year," One of the Teachers from the other academies spoke, looking at the score.
The majority of the teams they brought with them were in the Top 20, and it was an accomplishment that would only increase the prestige of their academy.
"Well, there is only an hour left, so I guess these are the teams that will get the reward," He said, looking at the timer.
Although for World Academy students, this tournament wasn't something major they would chase after, for the students that came from other academies, this was the only chance for them to gain the token to enter the Trials Ground.
In the past, there were cases when such students displayed results that were on par with the students of World Academy.
"Professor Elsa, you should just put another student with them," Dahlia said, looking at the performance of Class 1.
Despite being the only team that was fighting with two students, they had managed to enter the Top 10.
And all the credit went to Venessa Baker, who was currently covered with monster blood.
Some of the students were shocked to see such a performance, but she was quite tired.
'If I could use Uncle's Swordsmanship, I can go further,' Venessa wiped the sweat while she breathed heavily.
Because the fact that Venessa was hiding her true identity, she couldn't use the Demarcus Family's Sword Art technique.
Fortunately for her, because Xander himself was teaching the first-
year Sword Art Class, she was able to showcase a very small part of it that Xander intentionally shared.
"I think this is my limit, sadly," Venessa turned her head towards Alyssa.
Both of them were sitting in the waiting area, and right now, all Class 1 students who were participating in this tournament were maintaining their distance from the crazy duo.
Even ignoring Alyssa, the sight of Venessa, who was casually sitting with half of her armor that was covered with monster blood, made others quite uncomfortable.
"Okay," Alyssa replied as she looked ahead.
Because Alyssa didn't want to show her power, she was only supporting Venessa when she needed help and occasionally killing monsters.
Despite that, they have killed over 100 E Rank Monsters and over 32 D Rank Monsters.
"It's fine," Elsa replied.
'Well, I can try next year,' Elsa gave up on winning this year.
Looking at Venessa and Alyssa, even adding a member wouldn't help them now.
Both of them were fighting for so many hours that adding another member now wouldn't make much of a difference.
"Professor Terrence must be happy right now seeing his students on the top," Elsa said, looking at the scoreboard.
"He just got lucky," Dahlia replied.
Dahlia's case was even worse than Elsa's, where two of the rankers weren't participating.
She had anticipated the absence of Kevin because some Professors, including Dahlia, knew about the Successor Candidate Tournament much before everyone else did.
But Elena's not participating lowered the chances of her class's win.
Meanwhile, Amelia and Damian just came out of Stage 3 after they defeated 9 D Rank Monsters in 10 minutes.
"Damian, in the next turn, we will take a more aggressive approach," Amelia suggested.
"Do we need to?" Lishia asked.
"Well, let's not take any chances," Amelia replied.
Unlike other teams, Amelia and Lishia weren't that tired. And the reason was Damian, who was walking behind them.
"Huff, huff, okay," Damian replied.
He was simply too tired to focus on whatever Amelia was saying.
Thud!
Throwing his shield on the ground, Damian sat in the waiting area where Class 2 students were sitting, and he just closed his eyes to take some rest.
Lishia quietly sat in her place, and Amelia did the same after she turned her head to look for Lucas and Livia, who were still watching them.
She waved her hand with a smile, and it made the boys who were sitting there blush.
They hadn't seen Amelia Greville, who always maintained a calm look smile like that.
"I hope they weren't bored waiting for us," Amelia muttered.
She looked at the leaderboard, and the difference between them and the second team was about 250 points.
It was a big difference, but Amelia didn't want to take any chances.
Their current points were 1180 as they killed 58 D Rank Monsters, and each of them gave 10 Points, and 120 E+ Rank Monsters gave around 5 points.
120 was the limit of E Rank Monsters each team could fight, and they had to move on to D Rank Monsters after that.
So, apart from their team, most teams fought around 100 E Rank Monsters, and they moved on to D Rank Monsters, which gave them double the points.
The teams around the leaderboard kept changing, and only 12 minutes were left.
"Damian!" Amelia spoke out as Damian slowly opened his eyes and tilted his head towards Amelia.
"Let's go. It's our turn," Amelia said, with Lishia standing behind her.
Damian turned his eyes towards the scoreboard.
"Even if we don't go, the scoreboard won't change much-" Damian was saying as he saw a rapid change in the points of a team that was in the middle of the scoreboard.
He rubbed his eyes and looked again, Damian's strange behavior made Amelia and Lishia look at the Scoreboard as well.
Both of them were looking at the top, but suddenly, they also noticed the change in the middle.
"Isn't that Class 1's Team? How are they getting so many points so fast," One of the students behind them spoke out.
"I guess he is finally here," Damian stood up energetically, surprising the students behind him.
"Let's go," Damian told Amelia and Lishia.
Lishia, who didn't know anything about the situation, was confused, but she could sense that, for some reason, both Amelia and Damian were fired up to enter the stage once more.
"Isn't this insane to look at," Professor Dahlia said as she looked at Stage 1.
"Well, he is Rank 1 for a reason," Elsa said with a smile, but she was a bit surprised as well.
"A single C Rank Hunter, taking on C Rank Monsters, it's simply insane," Professor Dahlia commented.
Just a few minutes ago, they saw Asher come back.
'Looks the same,' Asher looked at Monster Arena, which was a special place where Students were made to fight a group of monsters, or even single powerful monsters, as practice.
It was only possible because of the special binds that were put around the monsters so that they could kill them instantly if things went wrong.
Because controlling a monster was impossible, they made it so that they could simply kill it in a single second by activating the runes on the binds that were on the monsters.
And with instructors on the stage as well, to make sure to ensure the safety of the students in case the runic binds failed to kill the monsters.
Venessa looked up and saw Asher Greville standing in front of the entrance of the massive stage where a team was already fighting.
"He finally came back," Venessa said while squinting her eyes at him.
Alyssa also noticed Asher much before Venessa did, but she didn't show her reaction.
For Alyssa, who was super sensitive to mana, she could instantly recognize Asher's presence.
"Hey, we wouldn't be of much help after fighting for so 'long,'" Venessa shouted out to Asher, who turned to look at her.
"It's fine," Asher replied.
At the same time, the Team of students from another Academy finished their turn.
"Hey, isn't that Asher Greville," The Girl noticed a student standing as they were exiting the stage.
"Yes, but why is he here now?" The boy who sheathed his sword spoke, but they didn't look directly at Asher.
The Entrance Door opened as they left quietly while the instructor looked at Asher, who was standing in front of him.
"Umm, so it's your turn next," Instructor awkwardly said, looking at Asher and then at Venessa and Alyssa.
"I will be entering alone," Asher said as he entered the stage without waiting for the Instructor to answer him.
Venessa was confused, but she sat back down in her seat, not going inside with him.
"Well, he is certainly better than us, so he can fight alone," Venessa said with a frown on her face.
"Let me fight C Rank Monsters," Asher turned towards the Stage Referee.
"Huh?" The Referee got confused.
"I am a C Rank Hunter, so let me fight C Rank Monsters," Asher repeated his words as he looked at the Referee.
"Let him," The Voice of a Female resounded on the stage.
It belonged to Elsa.
"If the Professor says so, I can change the level, but be careful. If we deem that you will be in danger, we will stop the match immediately," The Referee told Asher.
<Increasing Difficulty Level 3: C Rank Monster>
Suddenly, many cages appeared on the stage, and some on the front opened up.
"Each time, two C Rank Monsters will be released at the same time until you defeat them both. Others won't come out," The Referee told Asher.
Crank!
The two cages opened as the Runic Markings appeared beneath them, releasing the restrained C Rank Monsters.
Instantly, those monsters jumped towards Asher, who was present in front of them.
"GRAAAAAAAH," Two of them roared as they closed the distance instantly.
'Swift Strike,' Asher thought as he moved from his position using Mir Steps.
He appeared in the middle of those two monsters as his sword traveled in an arc, beheading the two of them instantly.
