Hope you guys enjoyed this chapter as much as i did writing it, truly some good fights.

~Xzavon

————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————–

-Saint Hail Academy Arena B-

Xzavon didn’t think his group would be this famous, it’s only the first day they came here but they are already making a name for themselves. If this keeps up it won’t be long before a spot in the top 10 in the school becomes his. The only question that’s running through his mind is who’s going to be number 1 this year.

Seeing that the number of people arriving at the stands a man and woman comes on stage. The man looks pretty normal, more like if these two were going out the woman would be wearing the pants in the relationship. He has a feminine look, probably because it’s a trait of his race, yeah you guessed it he’s an elf. Golden hair coming just above his eyebrows, with the back in a ponytail, wearing a black suit. The girl on the other hand is super toned, probably too toned for her own good, muscles everywhere that’s visible, short black hair and a scar coming down her left eye. Scary, she’s not even wearing a dress, she dressed armor instead, truly a brute if Xzavon had a say in it. Just looking at her somewhat reminds him of Jim, that guy would probably try to challenge her to a duel.

“Attention, first I want to congratulate everyone on passing the first 2 exams. Sadly you didn’t get into the school yet, but don’t worry all you have to do is win 1 match against your opponents. You might be wondering why would we hold a tournament then if you only have to win one match, well that’s simple, the top 5 will represent your year in our semi-annual subjugation. These 5 will become the leaders and form a group, that group will then participate to go practice killing monsters. They will also get special attention in class, and receive skill books for our schools most prized skills. Not only that, but all those in their group will be able to get the same benefits The winner of todays tournament has a chance to challenge the 10th person in the student council to a duel, the winner of that duel will be able to become the 10th seat in the student council. I’m sure you are all aware of our student council, and im sure that you all are hoping to one day join them. They are our pride and joy, and once they graduate tons of sects will be looking to recruit them to join them, their future is surely limitless. Now without further adue let the competition begin.”

Man that elf surely has a manly voice, it echoed throughout the stadium, everyone didn’t have a choice but to listen to his voice. Slowly the first few fights began, and Xzavon was watching but in his mind they were all lame fights. He wasn’t lying, they truly were lame those people hardly even had any spells to use, but who was he to talk he hardly had any attacking spells himself. Not to mention he hasn’t even had a chance to try out his new spells.

Somewhere in the stands was a man with hair and pale skin watching the fights go on. He was by himself, wondering when his son would get a chance to fight. Suddenly he felt the gaze of someone watching him, he quickly turned his head only to find out it was one of his old rivals. Walking towards the white-haired man the figure moved elegantly, “Oi, Jim wouldn’t expect you to be here of all places. Did your clan make you come here to look at future prospects, or are you eyeing the competition?”

Yes the man who was watching the boring duels was Jim, Xzavons father. He was here to watch his son duel and see what place he would get in this years tournament, if he didn’t at least win 2 duels he would be punished. Knowing that this man was talking to him Jim bitterly smiled, “Hey Arron, never thought you would be here either. I guess your position in the clan is falling down and the youngsters want your spot huh. So you probably came here to recruit someone who you could work from the shadows to take over huh?”

Laughing Arron looked at Jim, “You know me too well Jim, but that isn’t the reason i’m here. My son chose to come here so i’m looking after him in todays duel making sure he gets a good ranking. Let me tell you, there’s no one who can challenge him in the arena, he’ll surely get first place easy.”

“Oh, really…it might not be as easy as you think. My son is also taking part, pretty sure he can beat your son just like I beat you.” Not even taking a second look at Arron Jim turned back to the arena.

Seeing that Jim looked away Arron turned to the arena, “That was in the past Jim, you’ve been gone for 15 years new things have happened and a new lord has risen.” Jim looked at him, this was his first time hearing about this, “What are they called and what is their goal?”

Seeing that Jim took the bait Arron turned his head and started walking away, “If your son really does beat my son i’ll tell you who they are. As for their goal, just watch your back.” Arron waved his hand at Jim and walked off, not even a second look.

“Hey Alfred, you’ve been in charge while I was away, who are these people.” Jim said in a low voice to no one.

*Flash*

Suddenly a young man with sharp eyes and a dark face appeared behind Jim, he was surprised that Jim even knew he was here. “Ah, I didn’t think you noticed me leader, your perception really is first class. As for who he was talking about they call themselves The Purple Alliance, nothing we can’t handle though.”

Suddenly an idea flashed through Jims head, “Nah don’t worry about it, i’ll just let my son handle it. If he can’t do this much then he won’t amount to anything in the future.” Hearing Jims thought, Alfred surely didn’t think he would hand the task of dealing with them to his son, “Are you sure, I don’t think he’s ready to handle something of that scale.”

Shrugging his shoulders, “Don’t mind it, whether he does or doesn’t its up to him. You know what we had to do to build ourselves to the top, without the strength to carry yourself, how can you carry someone else. Oh look he’s going up to fight now.”

Xzavon walked onto the arena, his opponent was a female. Long white hair, red eyes, white skin and she was wearing a skin-tight blue dress, if he hadn’t seen beautiful girls before he would have been mesmerized by her. That wasn’t the case though, after the start of the bell to begin fighting he eyed her for a bit.

Seeing as to how Xzavon kept staring at her she showed a charming smile, “Am I that charming, If you get off the arena i’ll give you some good loving.”

Xzavon thought for a while before shaking  his head, “Nah I don’t need any good loving, and you aren’t that charming.” After finishing his sentence he used  and appeared before her in the time it took to take 4 breaths. Lifting up his left leg, he was about to roundhouse kick her in the head, but suddenly he heard something, “How dare you hit her. Don’t you know who she is, she’s one of the top beauties that have taken the exam this year. If you lay a hand on her i’ll personally kill you myself and deliver your body to her as a present.”

She took this chance to deliver a punch straight at Xzavons face, however before it landed he was gone. Appearing behind her he streched his hand around he waist, then he used his other hand and felt her chest. Seeing this the man who yelled at him was angry, it wasn’t just him everyone was mad how dare he feel on this young maidens chest during a competition. This is immoral, he should be disqualified for this act, and yet the elf and warrior woman cheeks turned red at this but didn’t say anything. It’s not that they didn’t want to say anything, it’s just that this is a competition and body contact will be involved, just as long as it doesn’t go too far.

“Tck! Not good enough.” Xzavon said and tossed her off the arena, the fight ended fast, no one expected the fight to end that fast. Passing the first fight with ease, Xzavon felt proud of himself even if he didn’t throw a blow at least he tested his speed and knew that he was fast enough to land a few blows on his opponent. Walking past the guy who said something to him, “If you don’t like it, make it to the top 10 then i’ll personally teach you a lesson.” This exchanged happened in less than a breath, and when the youth turned around Xzavon was already long past him. “The name is Omar, Omar Duck. Remember the name of your murder, and don’t cry to your damn mother when it happens either.” Omar yelled at Xzavons back.

-Arena D-

On the other side of the building, a female was stepping onto the arena. Everyone felt scared of her after the things they heard, especially how she opening made comments during everyone’s fights about how they were slow or how her grandmother can kick their ass. The first time she stepped on stage, she ended the fight before her opponent even knew it started, she rushed towards him kneed him in the gut, while he grabbed his stomach in pain she elbowed him to the ground. He layed unmoving and the referee had to come call a stretcher and some healers to heal him, they never knew someone could be so scary. 10 seconds, the fight lasted less than 10 seconds who in the world can handle such a monster, of course they didn’t dare say she was a monster because of her attitude.

Shina was looking at her opponent grinning, she just wanted to beat him and then the other people to make her name known. After the first fight she felt that no one would be able to beat her, she was going to use this tournament to get herself some underlings. Little did she know that a group of people were glancing at her, not in admiration but with hate. How can they let a girl beat them down, they would lose their dignity if they let that happen, they would rather die before that. But knowing her strength, the only way to win was to cheat, of course they wouldn’t cheat in the wide open, but they brought pills to buff themselves up and increase their stats. With this Heavenly pills, it would increase all their stats by 100, that should be enough to beat her until she summits to them.

Although she had a nasty attitude, they would still like to mess her up and call her names while they dominate her. Let her know her place as the whore she really is, the only place she belongs in on her knees.

Feeling someones gaze at her she didn’t mind, she just thought someone was admiring her. Once the ref told them to start she rushed towards her opponent, instead of staying for a fight, “I Conced-” Before he could even finish her fist went right smack dab into his face, the ref stopped the fight before she could land a second blow. Although her attacks hardly did any damage if any, it would still hurt like hell to get hit with her strength. Her opponents wouldn’t die with her physical attacks, but they would get hurt.

-Arena A-

In arena a, both Jack and Eric had an easier time. Their opponents conceded at the start of the fight, so they were just sitting in the stands talking to some girls they met. On the left of Eric was a super hot chick with a huge chest, it was like two watermelons getting ready to burst. She also had long red hair reaching down to her waist, and her eyes seemed so innocent. On the left of Jack was another girl with a huge chest, but she had shorter hair which was also red. These two girls were twins who passed their first match also, but with a little more difficulty than Jack and Eric.

They figured since these two might be the strongest ones here why not try to get close to them and shine in the spotlight. The might even get the help later on while they attend the academy from these two if they got into any trouble. Jack and Eric felt the gazes of the males staring with killing intent at them, but they didn’t mind. ‘Damn those two, do girls really care about strength. I want a big breasted girl at my side too, and shove my face into her two watermelons, who wouldn’t that would be every mans dream’ just thinking about that got all the males even more angrier at them. At the top were two boys who were staring at Jack and Eric, they really wanted to fight them.

“Hey Ash, I think we might have found our match in this stupid arena.” The guy with short blue hair said to the guy next to him in a low voice. Ash was slightly taller than him by half a head, and he nodded in agreement, “Maybe Luke, hopefully they last more than 5 minutes against us. Damn dad telling us to hold back our strength saying ‘No one there is worth your time, so don’t show off too much’ obviously he didn’t think of these two black horses.”

-Arena B-

After that first fight with the girl, Xzavons next opponent who was also female didn’t even want to fight. She covered up her chest from his view and conceded the fight as fast as she could. He waited until finally it was his turn again, he was hoping to get a decent opponent this time. “523 vs 524” the ref called out. Xzavon noticed that the one who was stepping on stage was the guy who said he would kill him. ‘Whats his name again….something with an O….oh well better end this quickly’ he thought as he looked at Omar.

“Finally i get the chance to teach you damn manners. Maybe if you concede now I, Omar will let you off with small bruises. If you stand here your daddy will teach you a good lesson in manners.” After he said that Xzavon couldn’t take it and broke out laughing, everyone was wondering why he was laughing.

“Whats wrong with that guy, doesn’t he know who he’s going agasint. All his fights have been easy so far, but now that he’s facing Omar he’s dead for sure. When that guy says he’s going to kill someone he really does it, not even the athourities take action against him.”

The guy next to him agreed with him, “He just doesn’t care, look at him laughing in the face of death, truly disgusting. If I had Omars strength I wouldn’t have even waited until now to tell him whose boss, would have let him know from the start. Omar is too nice letting him do what he pleases.”

“Omar I love you! Please marry me, I don’t care if im not your first wife.” A few female voices sounded.

Xzavon stopped laughing as he heard the comments, he finally paid attention to Omar whose eyes were glaring at him like daggers. This guy is serious about this fight, Xzavon got serious too and as soon as the ref told them to fight he used closing the distance. Omar knew he would do something like that, but he could keep up with Xzavon and countered with his own rushing towards him. 

*Boom!*

 Omars fist landed against Xzavon’s leg and caused a semi shock wave.

“He’s dead for sure, bet you he can’t even move that leg again. He’s lucky he didn’t get thrown off stage, Omar must have been using 50% of his strength.”

Omar didn’t think Xzavon was this strong, he didn’t use 50% of his strength but 100% and this guy evenly matched him. Omar hopped back and hit his fist together,  is the move he used.  exactly how the name sounds, it turns your first into fire, and increases the damage it does by 50%, it also causes a burn effect on the opponent, this is Omars family skill.

Seeing Omar use that skill Xzavon was stunned momentarily, but he gathered himself and used  again, this time when he used his leg to kick he enhanced it with mana control to make a small shield around it. Omar seeing this smirked, ‘this guy just doesn’t understand’, however how would Omar know that Xzavon used mana this time to make his kick even harder and sturdier than the last. Throwing his fist towards Xzavons leg, *Boom* *Boom!* *Crack* that crack sound echoed through the stadium everyone heard it. They were waiting until the smoke cleared from that encounter hoping to see Xzavon laying on the ground, but once it cleared they were stunned stiff. Omars hand was broken, it was leaning outwards and you could see his bone.

The ref seen this stopped the fight immediately, announcing Xzavon as the winner. Xzavon just left the stage and went back to his seat, ‘atleast he put up more of a fight than the other people’. Seeing Xzavons calm face after the exchange everyone thought this guy must be insanely strong, he wasn’t even limping after getting hit my Omars . It must be known that is a high ranked skill, and getting hit by it would cause someones body to become crispy after getting hit, yet Xzavon wasn’t even slightly bruised.

-Arena D-

Shinas turn finally came up again, this time it was against a guy who she didn’t even notice before. He wore glasses with black hair, even his eyes was black, ‘this guy is creepy’ she thought. Seeing the ref saying they could fight she did the usually and ran straight at him, but that guy just blocked it with his hand. Gripping her fist with his left hand he yanked her towards him, turned around and roundhouse kicked her in the face. She was sent flying in the air just barely staying on the stadium, she coughed up mouthfuls of blood. Her eyes were sparkling, ‘Finally a real challenge’ she wiped the blood from her mouth and charged at him again.

Appearing in front of him again, she ducked his left jab, and swept his feet. Losing his balance he almost fell over, but using his right hand he rotated around on the ground and got up. He glared at her, rushed towards her throwing a right, Shina dodge and hit him in the gut. While she punched from below, he was going to knee her in the head. Barely seeing the knee coming she dodge it by a hairs breath.

“This guy is pretty good don’t you think? He can even handle that monster, we are saved finally a savior is here!”

“What do you mean, are you stupid! What happens when that monster loses, we’ll have to face the other monster, you think he’ll just give up the fight when we step up on stage. Idiot! He’ll probably kick our asses worse than she would, I mean look at who’s taking the most hits here, he barely got hit in the entire exchange yet that monster got hit 5 times more than he has.”

“What do you expect, you guys don’t should feel ashamed of yourselves not evening knowing who he is.” A voice sounded out from behind the two, when they heard this they turned around to see who it was. It wasn’t just them, everyone was looking at that person wanting to know who that guy was.

“Let me tell you, that guy isn’t so simple so far he still hasn’t used a skill but the girl is quite good also being able to match him without using a skill either. But she won’t be able to keep it up for long, because that guy is the son of the leader of the Forsaken Night clan. Once he uses one of his skills she’s done for.”

They looked at the guy who was talking before gulping down their saliva, who was Forsaken Night clan? They were one of the 11 lords, and the leaders son they all heard stories about him but they never thought they would see him in action. All the stories they heard were about him being monstrously strong, everyone was comparing him to Jim back in his younger days saying that once he grows up some more he’ll be able to beat Jim in a duel and take the title of the strongest. Seeing him in action now, they had no doubts about it. Some even took pity on Shina for being able his opponent, they now knew that he probably wasn’t even use 30% of his strength. As for the group of people who wanted to beat Shina themselves, they threw that idea out the window as soon as they knew she would lose. As for the guy who would beat her up, they didn’t even think about trying to cheat to beat him, if he was only using 30% of his strength and was already beating her up, what would happen to them.

*Boom!* Shina was sent flying out of the arena, and the guy just casually walked off the stage.

“FUCK!!! Just you wait, i’ll get my revenge for today!” Shina yelled at him after she got up off the ground.

(AN: Well shina that’s what you get for being cocky now isn’t it.)

(Shina: Who the hell are you? Fuck you and your grandmother!)

(AN: Damit! Whats with you characters coming to life, why don’t you just stay on the page and let me do my job!)

(Shina: Oh you’re the author. Damn you, you fucker! Why didn’t you make we win! Hey, don’t run away get your ass back here!!!)

-Arena A-

Jack was on the arena standing off against a guy with short blue hair, but one thing was different about them and that was Jack was bleeding all over while the other guy wasn’t. “Ah! I thought i finally found something to play around with you could hardly take 5 hits and your already getting broken. Just concede so we can move on to the next round.”

Jack wasn’t going to listen to the voice, and used  to appear before the blue haired guy. Throwing a  but was dodged by the blue haired kid, he turned around  chopped Jacks neck knocking him unconscious. He picked Jack up and tossed him to Eric, “This was a pain, take care of him next time or else I wont be so polite.” and he walked off the stage.

“Ash don’t you think you used too much strength this time. Could have let the poor guy off with one  but no, you just had to drag the fight out to test yourself huh.”

Seeing Luke scolding him he just shook his head, “Nah, he was stronger than i thought. Really a persistent fellow maybe we should tell dad about him when we return to the clan later. Anyways, it looks like your facing that guys pal next duel good luck.” Ash said and took his seat next to Luke.

Looking at were the guy was coming from Eric felt furious, this guy must be related to the guy who beat up Jack. 

He was definitely going to get revenge for Jack, stepping onto the arena the match soon began. Opening the fight with  he approached in front of the other kid, Eric raised his hand and used  which came down as quick as thunder. *Boom* Eric missed the attack, but the force of it caused a huge commotion, and the other kid was on the other end of the arena. “Woah, that was a close one. We didn’t even introduce ourselves, let me start i’m Luke Crestin.”

Everyone heard his voice, once they found out who he was they got excited to see one of the members from the 11 lords fight. Luke and Ash were from the Crimson Crest sect, a powerful sect that ruled like an iron hammer. Everyone knew of their prestige and no one dared to get in their path, but everyone adored them because of their unwavering strength.

Eric was scratching his head, “Oh my bad man, i’m Eric. Now that we have introduced ourselves, let us begin.” Using  to close the distant Luke used the same move also, and threw a punch towards Eric. Eric barely dodged the attack, it actually cut the side of his cheek, he countered with an elbow which went slightly past Luke’s jaw. The spectators were surprised at this, these two were about evenly matched so this was bound to be a good match for them to see, they weren’t the only ones happy about this Ash was also. Seeing his brother found a good match he was also slightly disappointed that he didn’t get to face off against him.

Eric used  and sliced his hand in the air, leaving a white light behind his hand, Luke dodged it but a part of his white shirt got caught in the attack and now it had a line going across it. He used  to attack Eric, but Eric seen this coming and retaliated with a . *Boom!* using this chance Luke disappeared in thin air, Eric didn’t see him but he immediately used  which located Luke. Looking towards the left he threw another  at the air, Luke appeared around the same time the slash landed. *Boom* Luke was sent flying towards the edge of the stadium, but he recovered quickly and used to close the distant between them. Jumping in the air Luke used towards Eric, who followed it up with a . 

*Boom!!* 

The sound echoed throughout the stadium, and both figures were sent out of the arena.

The ref went on stage looking awkward at this, “What do i say folks, both of them are eliminated.” This sent boo’s towards him because clearly they wanted to see more and they wanted to find out which one of them was stronger. Ash was astounded, never would he have thought that someone could challenge Luke but it seems that his brother met a worthy opponent.

-Arena B-

Finally winning his final match, Xzavon proceeded into the top position #1 in arena B. Now he would have to face the other winners from the other 3 arenas to see who would be ranked 1. He was excited hoping to see Shina, Jack, and Eric again but also to see how far each one of them go.

The whole arena was changed, Xzavon had to move into a new field in the middle of the Academy. He was surprised to see that Shina, Jack, and Eric weren’t the top in their arena, he was disappointed with them. But how would Xzavon know that they fought against strong opponents, it’s not like he didn’t fight against strong people either, it’s just that he didn’t’ find anyone who could match his strenght.

The people who he saw was a male with short blue hair, another male but he had black hair and glasses, and a downright beautiful female. She had neck length blue hair, a white top and some short blue jeans. Didn’t look like she was wearing make up at all either, she could cause the whole town to fight over her.

The ref went up and announced the first fight of the top 4, “523 vs 2213”. Xzavon went up and seen that his opponent was the black-haired kid, he didn’t know how Shina lost to this guy he looked weaked.

“OMG look its Gunner! He won arena D easily after he beat that brute of a female, he’s going the win the whole thing. If I could have him as my boyfriend i could truly die happy!”

A girl who heard that denied her, “Lies, Its my Ash that’s going to win it all. No one can challenge his quick step, he appears in an instant and knocks all of his opponent out with ease.”

A few guys said in unison, “Who can match our goddess Holly. Shes so beautiful, truly if anyone had her as a wife why would they even need someone else. Not to mention she’s from one of the 11 lords.”

“Guys chill, they are all from the 11 lords, i just feel sorry for that white-haired kid. He just doesn’t know what he’s going up against.” A voice sounded, and all the others nodded in agreement.

The match started and Xzavon used  to close the distance, knowing that he beat Shina he didn’t waste an ounce of his strength and put mana into his leg to make it sturdier. When it landed on Gunners body it was blocked by his forearm, but not without him sliding a few inches.

Seeing that Gunners body moved when he blocked that kicked it left people speechless, ‘who is this guy’ they thought.

Up in the stands Jim had a bright smile on his face, which turned back calm when he seen who was approaching. “Yo Jim, seems like your son didn’t make it to the top 4 huh?” Yup, this voice was none other than Arron, Jims old rival. “Haha, my kid is fighting your boy Arron. What do you think pretty good huh?” Arron took a glance at his son and Xzavon fighting, he turned back to Jim, “Oh that’s your boy, no wonder he made it this far. Seems like a dark horse has risen and no one knows who he is. Too bad he’s going to lose to Gunner.” Jim didn’t take it to heart and just kept watching the match, “Maybe, maybe not guess we’ll just have to see. Also I decided I wont handle the Purple Alliance, I’ll just let Xzavon test the waters with them.” Arron eyebrows furrowed, “Not surprising you found out about them so quickly. But why let him handle it, if it was me who was in your shoes I would just show off my might and wipe them out instantly.”

Showing a slight smile, “It’ll be good practice for him.”

Xzavon was sweating and panting, but he wasn’t the only one Gunner also felt the heat of this battle. He knew that his opponent was strong, probably one of the strongest in this year, he wouldn’t hold back anymore. Jumping back a few meters his hands flashed and he drew a dagger out of the air. It wasn’t really out of thin air, it was more like he moved so fast and grabbed it from his back pocket that it seemed like he got it from no where. Xzavon seen what he did and glanced at him, “So we are getting serious are we, guess i’ll go all out too.”

Gunner ran forward against Xzavon and his dagger was as quick as lightning, he was using to quickly attack Xzavon. *Boom* *Boom* *Boom* *Boom* echoed, everyone thought Xzavon was turned into mince meat, however they never thought a shield would protect him. This wasn’t a normal shield, it was a shield made of mana, . Everyone who was in arena B was surprised, “This damn guy was a mage the whole fucking time!” Someones voice was heard, everyone was surprised they knew how strong he was in close range fighting, but he didn’t even use any magic attacks yet and he was already strong. They were really wondering who he was to be able to be that strong. “Who the hell is that guy, he can fight evenly with Gunner and he didn’t even use any spells yet. This guy is definitely from the 11 lords or one of the rising clans, someone tell me who the hell he is!”

It wasn’t just the students, some of the teachers who seen this was also surprised, “Hurry, find me everything on this kid. Why have i never heard anything about him, this unexpected dark horse, if he was from one of the 11 lords we would have known ages ago. Check every noble family and look for him, i want to know who this child is.” The lady wearing the warriors outfit stepped forward, “Sir, his name is Xzavon.” The teacher looked confused he never heard of anyone with that name, “Whats his last name?” Her cheeks turned red, “Well the thing is, we never got a last name.” “WHAT! How could you not get his full name, do you know what this means! Samantha you disappoint me, how could you not get a big character like him to tell you his last name.”

Samantha’s cheeks turned deep red, “I-i’m sorry sir, i didn’t think he would make it this far, also we are only required to take their first name not last.”

Seeing that she was truly sorry the teacher forgave her, “Its ok, just make sure to get his name after this.”

Xzavon and Gunner were going at it, Xzavon was keeping his distance using , while Gunner was chasing after him slashing through the bolts one after another. “”, Gunner said and suddenly his body disappeared in thin air, it was like he became one with the dark. Nah, more like black mist covered the whole arena blocking Xzavon from locating him. Xzavon knew something was coming and used  in less than 5 breaths Gunner attacked from behind Xzavon. *Boom* *Boom* more sounds kept echoing on the arena, but no one could see anything because of the mist. A few minutes later the mist disappeared and both of the youths on the arena were breathing heavy, clothes destroyed. “Meh, you’re a good opponent. Hopefully you’ll be a worthy rival later on.”, Xzavon said in admiration, he really looked up to this guy. After he said that he walked off the stage and took a seat in the stands.

Everyone was surprised, why didn’t he finish the fight they all wondered. They really wanted to know if the dark horse would win or would the 11 lords still reign over them. How would they know Xzavon left the arena because he ran out of mana, if they knew that they would surely laugh at him. So it was announced that Gunner won the match, although he wasn’t happy because it wasn’t a real win.

“Oi, Jim it seems like my boy won this one.” Arron said happily. “Haha, this boy really is going to get it later on, he actually walked off the arena in the middle of the fight. Even i never thought he would do that.” Jim lightly laughed at his son.

After Ash and Holly fought for 20 minutes they took a 10 minute break so Ash could catch his breath. Ash might have won the battle, but it was a good fight and he found a new rival so he was happy. When he fought with Gunner the duel went on for around 30 minutes, with Ash being knocked out of the ring. Thus Gunner was crowned the winner of this year, but everyone had one question in mind, ‘Who would have won if Xzavon and Gunner kept on fighting’. Even Ash and Holly took notice of Xzavon who was sitting waiting for this to be over, if he fought on par with Gunner then he must be strong.

“A well deserved win towards this years champion Gunner Night! Hopefully you guys can learn a thing or two from him during your stay at Saint Hail Academy. Once again give a round of applause to Gunner!”
