[Viltania City]
Not only the participating teams were surprised cause of the rapid elimination which greatly reduced the numbers of participants by a huge numbers, but it also the crowd were going nuts as they witnessed multiple battles occuring in different places
If it weren't for this tournament, it would've have seemed to be a war that stretches out I different field, but what's surprising off all was that many were actually eliminated only by the second day inside the mystical realm created by the mages of the kingdom
With continues action from different places, everyone held their breaths in anticipation as soon the losing participants showed up below the arena and was immediately treated
Soon After they were surprised of the result that was given by the numbers of participants remaining
*********
# of survivors
Ascalon Academy - 4 survivors
Gritonnia Academy - 4 survivors
Ballad Academy - 1 survivor
Orbium Academy - 2 survivors
Horoscious Academy - 1 survivor
Elludkal Academy - 1 survivor
*********
Upon seeing the list, everyone went wild as they recounted the scenes as they fervently talked about it on their seats
Apparently each team were going up against each other as Horoscious Academy representatives suffered at the hands of Ascalon Academy's representatives
On the other hand Orbium and Ballad actually clashed head on against each other causing casualties on both sides, thus leaving only few survivors for their team
This time around the tension rises as the viewers, audiences could see the movements of each team and saw that Ascalon Academy representative's are heading straight towards Gritonnia Academy's representatives, thus causing the Gritonnia Academy students to pale in fright cause after all they've seen what the Ascalon Academy representative's could do
"This is bad... Really bad" muttered Cedric
"You don't have to repeat it Cedric, we might get contaminated with bad luck if you continue your mutter" said Wendy
"But it's a fact though, we won't even know if our representatives could handle the Ascalon Academy representative's" said Rachel
"Well we know for sure that Shun would put up a fight" said Aria
"I don't think Shun would lose" added Sephiria
"I know! He's persistent but what if he faced off agaisnt Lorius Ejinto? That guy is an Ancient Magic user" pointed out Cedric
"We all know that ancient magic are at most used for wars, since that was an era of chaos, but can the magic of our era of peace could defeat the magic of the era of war? I think not" said Cedric
"But we will see soon, since we can't do anything about now" said Wendy
"In the Ascalon Academy's eyes, the Gritonnia Academy's representatives are a sore after seeing the equal standings" said Cedric
Hearing that Sephiria prayed intently as she can't even call down for a moment of tension

[Forest Area]
After seeing the list of survivors, Rosalyn then begun to ponder about the result as Goran begun to become delighted
"Hahaha! Many have already been eliminated but us three haven't done anything yet" said Goran
"He's right! We still have full stamina at our disposal, but the other Academy's at win a tension... Isn't this advantageous for us?" Asks Sonia
At this moment Shun interjected in after confirming to Teemo that the shrooms have been hid well and his other champions to ambush anyone that comes near
"Nope the situation is fire for us actually, but also a relief from other Academy representative's" said Shun
"Huh? Why? Didn't you see the results?" Asks Sonia
"I saw them... But my instincts told me so" said Shun
Following up Shun's claim, Rosalyn the. Explained to both Goran and Sonia about their dire situation
"Yup! Shun is right! We are in danger"
"I don't understand..." Mumbled Goran
At that point, Rosalyn pointed out something
"Look with everyone having few of their members remaining, they will surely hide their presence, which lost likely makes it hard for the hunters to track them down, since that will be the case, who do you think Ascalon Academy will target next?"
After hearing that both Goran and Sonia looked at the list before their faces turning grim
"Don't... Tell... Me" stuttered Goran
"Yup! We are next... For them Gritonnia Academy representative's are an eyesore, so they'll have to find us and take us down to our minimal level and dragged it all out" said Rosalyn
Hearing that Goran then asked
"Then do we have a chance against them?"
"Yeah! Shun has summons, we could get an aid! Numbers are on our side" said Sonia
Hearing that Shun then said
"The summons and numbers are not an issue, but rather their leader who uses the ancient magic thingy... Just imagine what if he has a return spell? Reverse mechanism spell? Controlling spell? Time spell? Space spell? Or even nullification spell? Wouldn't my summons be useless by then?"
As shun posed that question, both Goran and Sonia became grim as they noticed the fire situation
"Summons aren't the problem, their ace is the problem" added Shun
With that Rosalyn then walked up and presented her knowledge and current info
"Here's our data about the Ascalon Academy after the 3 on 3 battle with Orbium Academy few days ago"
Soon she presented her day as everyone saw the info she collected
"Mario Sith... He has Dragonic magic at his disposal, which includes strength defense and even dragon long range magic, Rekka Loine... She has an indescribable amount of Mana for conjuring magic as she is extremely efficient with a bow, coupled with her application magic she's really strong, Cynthia Fraum... She's a combat healer and in fact she doesn't even need protection as she can protect herself, lastly Lorius Ejinto... He's extremely dangerous for using ancient magic which is compatible to war" explained Rosalyn
Hearing all that compared to Rosalyn Magic swordsman, Goran's Guardian, Sonia's sound magic, such magic was way degraded than the Ascalon Academy's magic
In fact only Shun's unique summoning magic could actually almost be categorized as war magic, but that was it
The overwhelming difference in magic and strength slowly made the morale of the team to plummet
With that Rosalyn clapped her hands which caught everyone's attention
"With that we must make sure not all of us could get eliminated"
"How?" Asks Sonia
"Simple! We split up..."
"!!!"
"If we split up we can minimize the percentage of all of us getting eliminated, but for those unlucky one that got targeted... It will be hard to say whether they would survive"
After a moment of silence, everyone then steeled their nerves as they agreed with the split up tactic
But as they soon agreed to this kind of strategy, an thundering explosion shot off just outside the forest, thus turning their expressions grim
"They're here already?"
"So fast!!!"
********
Outside the forest area Lorius sized up the forest as Cynthia went to his side and asked
"Are you sure that the Gritonnia Academy students will be here?"
"Of course! I've used my search magic and saw them here" said Lorius with a voice full of confidence
"What shall we do? The forest is thick!" Said Rekka
"Yeah!" Added Mario
Hearing that Lorius then said
"No need for group up, at this point they've must thought of Splitting up, so everyone of us should be able to find atleast one Gritonnia Academy representative, if if that were to happen, deal with them quickly"
Hearing that everyone from Ascalon Academy representative's nodded in agreement
