"Both contestants are alive and kicking, unbelievable!!" The announcer said anxiously.
"I'm surprised you're still standing", arcane said.
"I could say the same for you". Tahir replied.
"Tssk", arcane clenched his teeth together before throwing a fireball at Tahir.
"We have delayed this fight long enough, it's time we end it". Tahir said.
"I'll end it with my last attack, try to survive it". Arcane said as he smirked.
Taking his earlier stance, Tahir held the hilt of one of his swords, a large amount of aura was being condensed in the sheath holding the sword.
"He is really serious about ending the fight with one last attack". One of the world leaders said.
Arcane on the other hand was seen creating a large condensed form of lightning.
Releasing the lightning it was heading towards Tahir who drew his sword out its sheath along with the large condensed form of aura. The entire stage was filled with raw power, everyone could feel it deep in their gut that this attack was a destructive one.
The two attacks were pushing each other back as cracks and a crazy whirlwind of power was on the stage, but yet both opponents stood without a single fear on their face.
Beneath the devil's mask a large smile was starting to form.
In the end of the power struggle, Tahir slash overpowered the lightning as the lightning was dispersed immediately.
Arcane was seen creating different amounts of earth slabs to stop the speed of attack.
The devil's attack canceled out each and every one of the attacks and as a result its speed was reduced, creating a thick lightning, it slammed into the attack as a large gust of wind was released.
Using the opportunity, Tahir used his speed to ricochet himself to arcane's position, when the dust settled, arcane saw a sword from above about to cut him down, using his golden spear to try and tank the incoming sword, the spear was slashed into two.
Arcane was shocked when the spear split into two, the golden spear was rumored to be indestructible.
Trying to push the shock away, Arcane tried to create another attack when the devil's punch slammed into his face, flinging his head backwards.
Arcane's entire body was knocked off stage, when he tried to stand up again he felt a sting of pain followed by a large amount of pain all over his body, the after effects of the awaken mode was starting to take effect.
"The..e match..have come to what we would like to call an end. The devil emerged Victorious.
Arcane of the military First division have been eliminated. The devil from the military third division is the winner of this year's Divisional match".
A large roar could be heard from the stage. No doubt this was from the third division students.
"You were strong, I had fun, you have room to develop, you give a lot of open space for an attack to come in. If you are ready to get much stronger, then find me. Stand tall soldier, you are one of the three who fought me and didn't die". Tahir said to the almost passed out arcane.
Arcane listened as a short smile was forming on his face.
Immediately after the match the devil was heading back when a press team blocked his way.
"Hi devil, my name is Sophia and I'm from the military press team. You have written a long history today by dragging the third military division to first place. I would like a few questions starting with "were you really taking the fight with arcane seriously"? The press team representative.
"Holding back? Yes I was. Instinctively I held back against humans, and arcane wasn't also going all out. The amount of training I have gone through is what put me on a different scale from arcane. If he had gone to similar training then I'm afraid I might have lost this fight today". Tahir replied.
"Okay, you saying the fight was a one sided fight, considering arcane used awaken mode. Our second question is, "what was the power you used to counter his awaken mode"? Sophie asked her second question.
"The power I used is confidential information and I can't tell you". Tahir answered coldly.
"Our second to the last question is are you going to participate in the one time battle with the overall champion of the military academy. That is the battle between the military academy two and the winner of this match". Sophie asked while giving Tahir the mic.
"I'll discuss that with the team and if that is the only question I would like to excuse myself". Tahir answered.
"One last question. Can you take off the mask and ease the suspense of the entire audience".
"
I'm sorry but I can't. Please excuse me". Tahir said as he made an attempt to leave.
Just when Tahir was about to leave, the leader of the first division blocked his way.
"As your superior I order you to take off your mask right now". Albert ordered.
"I'm sorry but I'm going to decline". Tahir said while getting ready for a fight.
"I see, you are already exhausted from your battle with arcane so I would advise you to stand down to avoid unnecessary violence". Albert said.
"Exhausted? I think I would stand my ground if I'm pushed to the wall. I'll not hesitate to fight you if you insist on fighting me". Tahir said as he took his sword from his storage ring.
John arrived and ordered Tahir to move to his room.
"Albert, I won't warn you again. I'm trying as hard as I can to avoid unnecessary fights with you. That doesn't mean I'll stand here and let you insult me". John said sternly.
When both division leaders were about to fight, the world leaders interrupted.
"As much as I would like to see either John and Albert fight or Albert and the new champion, I would still order you both to stand down and leave the devil if he chose to hide his face. Lucius one of the leaders said while releasing a little bit of his aura to tell them he wasn't joking.
By the way Albert you shouldn't look down on John, he is stronger than you think". Lucius added while walking off.
"Let go", Albert said as he walked out with his team angrily.
Both teams left for their respective rooms after the awarding ceremony.
