As the night drew to a close, everyone was up early and ready for the End of Year Review. Sam was the only one ready for a fight. Dean and Lily were still suffering from the sharp game Kai had played on their minds. Sam was fit as a fiddle.
Kai was wearing his black jacket again. Elvis had given him a couple of these. They were made entirely of energy and looked very beautiful in appearance.
10 people quickly entered the arena building. Although all eyes were on them, no one seemed to care. By the time the End of Year Review started, they were all asleep. The old students looked at them and sighed, while the new students didn't understand anything.
Time passed quickly. Introductions and the like took place. The feelings of the new students were determined. In District 2, there was one last thing left before the new recruits had their fights. The World Tournament had to be promoted. This was the main reason why the old students endured the End of Year Review.
Michael coughed a little before he started speaking on the pitch. It wasn't because he was sick or anything. It was to attract attention and wake up the sleepers.
And it worked. As everyone watched the stage, Michael began to speak.
"The long-awaited World Tournament will start in two days. Of course, I have to give you special information about it. About the rules of the tournament and how it will be organised."
"The tournament will be in the Skylands."
Michael's one word alone had people talking.
"The Skylands? You mean the place where Sky Island fell 200 years ago?"
"No! No! It can't be there. It's strong enough to kill the Regional Commanders. How can we survive there?"
"Don't worry. From what I've heard, only experts at rank 2 and above die. We'll be fine."
Voices were already getting louder and people were complaining, but Michael was calm.
"Please listen to me. I'm going to tell you about the Sky Land, maybe then you'll understand why it was built here."
"As you know, 200 years ago there was a disaster and powerful developers lost their lives. As all the corpses disappeared on the Sky Island, the island also fell and soon afterwards the fallen island was blessed and protected by the Universe Force. That's why cultivators from the 2nd Step and above could not enter the island."
"However, you can enter and you can benefit greatly from it. You can also become a King in that land where countless Kings have fallen. Likewise, do you think the power of the Universe could have blessed a place for nothing? The sky island was a very mysterious and ancient place even before it fell. Imagine a 1,000-kilometre layer of land in the sky. with rivers and forests. It's no different from a normal world. It's just there in the sky. Even the people who have lived the longest don't know the truth about that place. Now, instead of complaining, you should say thank you. "
"The Immortal Formation will be used and you will fight against the academies. Everyone will start in a different part of the forest. The last Academy standing will win. There will be no time limit. "
"I will also make a rank system now, to show who is in the leadership and to determine who is stronger. You may not fully understand what I am saying now, but you will understand when you get there. "
"There will be cities on the island. Cities built a long time ago. They have suffered some damage from the fall of the island, but I trust that you will be able to restore them and bring the academy to its highest level. "
"I now announce the ranks and their holders.
Firstly, the person who will be the leader of the whole Academy will be the Legendary Leader.
Then the 10 strongest students of each academy will be the Legends.
After them, there will be 50 Emperors.
Then will come the Seniors. There will be 500 of them. The rest will have no title. That's how it's titled.
This evening you'll take the train we've arranged for you to the tournament centre. There they will drop you to the island by different aeroplanes. "
"Finally, I will announce the holders of the Titles."
Everyone was excited as Michael took a list in his hand. Everyone wanted to know which title he had. Including Kai. He was fidgeting in his seat. Even the coolest people were expressing their excitement by tapping their feet in rhythm. Those normally known as Mind Thieves were clenching their fists so tightly that they were bending the steel pipes they held to keep their hands from bleeding.

Michael picked up the list and turned his head to the hundreds of thousands of students watching him.
" The person whose name is mentioned should come here." When Michael opened the first page of the list in his hand, everyone swallowed. The list was 500-600 pages long and looked more like a book than a list, but people were not stupid. They realised that there was one person on each page. And on the first page was the Legendary Leader.
"The person who will be the Legendary Leader....
Alan Diaz!"
When Alan took the field, all eyes were on him. From now on, Alan was the one they took orders from. Most people were happy about this, but there were some who were not. Michael realised this and spoke again.
"If you want to take the place of the chosen person, you have to defeat that person in a fair fight, just like in the army. And in this way you get the medallion with the title of that person. Other than that, everyone will obey the orders of their seniors!!! "
After Michael spoke, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. No one dared to object this time. Because that would have been a direct insult to Michael and he simply would not forgive that person.
Alan walked onto the field to Michael and Michael handed him a Medal. The medallion had a red lightning bolt on it, and underneath the red lightning bolt it said Legendary Leader.
Michael didn't stop after he gave Alan the Medallion. A white cloak appeared in his hand. The white cloak had beautiful patterns on it and in the centre of the cloak was a Red Lightning bolt in a circle.
"This cloak will represent our academy. Each Academy has a cloak and everyone up to the Seniors will receive a Cloak. I advise you not to remove the Cloaks. They have the ability to renew themselves. Therefore, you should wear them until you get rid of the shortage of clothes. "
After Michael spoke, he handed the cloak to Alan, who put it on and took the place indicating that he was the Legendary Leader.
The cloak made Alan look like a nobleman and was perhaps the most appropriate attire for a titled man.
Still, some were surprised that Alan was the Legendary Leader. After all, Jace had defeated Alan, and there were many who thought he should be the Legendary Leader. What no one knew, however, was that both Zaheer and Alan had made the grave mistake of underestimating their opponents. They were both talented geniuses and had failed to utilise their full power.
"First Legend.... Jace Quail!"
Jace followed suit and picked up the Medallion and Cloak. The only difference between the medallion and Alan's medallion was that it only said Legend instead of Legendary Leader.
Jace went to the place for the Legends and waited.
"Legend number two... Zaheer Gairas!"
Zaheer stepped onto the field as well, grabbed his Medallion and Cloak, and joined Jace.
"3rd Legendary...."
"4th Legendary...."
"5th Legendary..."
"6th Legendary..."
"7th Legendary..."
Including the 7th Legendary, every Legendary who took the field was in the Red Lightning. Except for Jace and Zaheer, the other 5 were also in Tier 10. They were the 4th Grade's most talented geniuses.
"8th Legendary.... Lena Taurin!"
As Lena walked towards the pitch, people started talking again.
"Unbelievable!! 2 Legends from one house. It really is a home of geniuses!"
"It's not just her! Look at Lena! She's not at the Beginning of the Beginning of the Red Lightning like the other 4 Legendaries!! She's at the Peak!! She's at the Peak of the Beginning!! Just like the 3rd Legendary!!"
"He's very talented!! But it's a pity he only specialises in Healing."
While everyone was talking in different voices, Lena came and took her medallion and cloak and joined the other Legendaries.
"The 9th Legendary... "As the 9th Legendary came onto the field, people were even more excited. Because the last person in the Red Lightning had arrived on the field. The people in the half-step Red Thunderbolt were standing on the spot. Some of them were very calm. It was as if they were sure that they would be chosen.
"The 10th Legendary.... Kai Lane!"
SILENCE....
An incredible shockwave had hit the developers. Many people had forgotten how to breathe. Even Kai was stunned. He thought he'd be the Emperor. Because he was technically in Orange Lightning. But until now, he thought they were only looking at progress on the path of development. But they were actually looking at how strong he was. That's why Kai became a Legend. because Kai had beaten both Lena and Zaheer.
As Kai walked onto the field, the half-steps were filled with anger as they realised why Kai had been chosen. But there was nothing to be done. Kai was a Legend now and there was no way they could beat him in a fight.
As Kai stood where the Legends stood, he felt some of the Legends looking at him. But none of them were looking at him with a malicious expression. Because they had seen Kai's fight with Zaheer. They could not underestimate him.
Then the Emperors were announced. The 50th Emperor was Alvar. Although there were many more developers in the Orange Lightning, the path of development was not important, it was the power that mattered.
In fact, that's what everyone thought was ridiculous. Alvar had never fought anyone with his full power! How could Michael possibly know his strength?!? And Alvar wasn't weak at all. As an Emperor, he should have been able to easily defeat someone in the centre of the Orange Lightning. But no one would have thought that this man who was loosely walking on the field was so strong. Only the old sophomores knew how abusive and idle this young man, who was slowly growing hair on his bald head, was.
Afterwards, the Seniors were announced. Although Orion and Reina were able to enter the Seniors, they were able to grab the last 2 places. Out of 200,000 people, it was great that they could even become Seniors. Only 2 of the 1st Graders were able to get a Cloak. Except Kai of course...
That was the end of the World Tournament titles. After the fights, everyone went home and started to prepare. Tonight they would go to the Tournament they had been waiting for months and maybe.... Their lives would change with this tournament...
