On stage, after Lilia and Hans bowed to each other, they got into position and were ready to fight.
The host, who was the balding headmaster, saw that both of them were ready and walked off the stage.
"The first round of the competition has officially begun!"
Following the bald headmaster's command, Hans immediately pulled out the sword from his waist and charged toward Lilia.
The Demon Hunter Union had a variety of combat methods, and they used all kinds of methods.
It wasn't like other organizations that would have some preferences.
Hans was clearly a mutant who used a sword.
Hans was very fast. Additionally, there was not much space in the arena.
Very soon, Hans had already arrived in front of Lilia.
At that moment, Hans raised the sword in his hand.
The sword was instantly covered in flames.
Upon seeing this, many disciples gasped in admiration.
Because the flames on this sword were yellow!
Judging by Hans' age, he appeared to be only 16 years old. And yet, he already possessed the strength of a Yellow-Grade.
He should truly not be underestimated.
Instantly, many of the disciples treated Hans as someone they needed to observe.
After all, this guy might become their opponent in the next round.
However, just as everyone was focused on Hans…
Lilia shouted.
Then, a ring of frost appeared on her body and it flew outwards.
A portion of the frost fell upon Hans' body and it rapidly spread through his body.
Meanwhile, another portion of the frost smashed onto the arena's protective shield.
This was the protective shield set up by the headmaster to prevent the superpowers from harming the people below the stage.
On the stage, after taking that attack, Hans quickly realized that the frost on his body was spreading.
He knew that if he did not get rid of the frost immediately, he might be frozen into an ice sculpture by the frost.
Although the experts present would not let him die, once he was frozen into an ice sculpture, he would immediately lose the qualification to compete.
Thus, he immediately picked up his sword and swung it in front of him.
Using the flames on his sword to melt the frost on his body, he also caused some fire-element damage to himself.
However, there was no other way.
Seeing that her frost superpower had been neutralized by her opponent, Lilia did not give her opponent any time to catch his breath and immediately attacked.
She raised her hands gently with her palms facing up.
Then, two fireballs rose from her palms.
Seeing that, Hans was slightly shocked.
He naturally recognized this spell.
Fireball.
However, he had never seen a mage who could cast two fireballs at the same time!
Although he was surprised, Hans knew that he had to find an opportunity to initiate an attack.
Otherwise, he would forever be beaten passively.
He would lose sooner or later.
Thus, Hans raised his sword again and charged toward Lilia.
At the same time, the fireball in Lilia's hand shot toward Hans.
However, when Hans saw this, his lips curled into a smile.
The instant the fireball was about to hit him, Hans quickly swung his sword to block the fireball.
The moment the fireball touched the sword, it immediately flew into the air and crashed into the protective shield.
"Hahaha, don't think about hurting me with such low-level magic!"
Seeing that he had successfully blocked two fireballs, Hans smiled proudly.
However, his eyes widened in the next second.
He saw countless fireballs flying towards him!
Lilia was casting fireballs continuously!
And their speed was extremely fast!
While Hans was still in a daze, Lilia had already released four more fireballs!
It was almost impossible to block all of these continuous and concentrated attacks.
Thus, Hans chose to block while dodging to the side.
However, no matter where Hans hid, Lilia's fireballs always chased him.
It did not take long for the fireball to hit Hans several times.
Upon seeing this, the Vice-President of the Demon Hunter Union, Haraus, stood up and shook his head.
"This round, our Demon Hunter Union admits defeat."
Chairman McCray was currently in cultivation behind closed doors.
Hence, everything regarding the Demon Hunter Union was decided by Vice-President Haraus.
Haraus could see that Hans would definitely lose if this continued.
Rather than being injured and end up in a sorry state, it was better to admit defeat now.
Hearing this, Lilia immediately stopped attacking.
Although Lilia was panting slightly, there was no problem for her to continue fighting.
Hans noticed this. Although he was not content with it, he nodded and agreed to Haraus' suggestion of surrender.
After all, Vice President Haraus was a Purple-Grade expert.
With the Vice-President's abilities, he would definitely not be mistaken.
Hans sighed and silently walked off the stage.
"In the first round, the Association of Mages' Lilia wins."
"Please prepare for the second match."
After the bald headmaster announced the results of the match, he immediately arranged for the next match.
After all, there were a total of 15 people. After the individual competition, they still had to fight a team battle.
Therefore, there was no time to waste.
…
Betta did not hear who the second player was.
After hearing that Lilia had won, he closed his eyes and went back to sleep.
The outcome of the others had nothing to do with him.
The matches continued one after another.
Basically, every disciple's performance was rather outstanding.
Although there were strong ones and weak ones.
But among the young disciples, it was already considered quite good.
Soon, seven out of 14 people were eliminated.
There were eight people left, including Betta. They would be divided into four groups for the second round.
There was no need to draw lots this time.
The winner between Number 1 and 2 would be up against the winner between Number 3 and 4.
It was the same after that.
In other words, Betta's opponent was one of them between Number 13 and 14.
However, Betta did not know who it was.
That was because he had been sleeping the entire time and did not watch the competition.
Even though he did not know who his opponent was, His opponent knew him.
Soon, Betta felt someone staring at him.
It was uncomfortable to be stared at.
Betta frowned and opened his eyes.
Their eyes met.
It was a young boy wearing a pair of goggles and holding a very mini pistol.
From his appearance, he belonged to the Cannon Master Association.
Betta squinted and ignored him.
However, the young man made a provocative gesture.
He extended his hand towards Betta.
Then, he turned his thumb to face downwards.
This was a blatant provocation!
