As Jono limped towards the school's Health unit, news of his epic victory against Toha at the sixth stage of the tournament began to spread like wildfire throughout the school.

Jono's star was on the ascent, thanks to the fact that someone at the sixth stage was endowed with two innate skills, whereas someone at the fifth stage was only blessed with one.
