Soon medical aid people come and take her rfromthe place I retired to my seat as I drifted off to sleep, exhausted from the earlier events, I instructed Kalayri to not wake me up and I drifted In sleep I wa shaving good deam playing with my friend sand brother when suddenly everything went blank and someone started laughing and I got angered and scream who it is and where are my friends as I said this another laugh come butvit was different somehow and hearing him laugh I got more angered and said who are you and were are my friend s and cousins tell me I want to play and I dare you if you are one ho hurt them I will beat you as I said this another laugh come and then someone said " you are interesting girl I will wait for you become strong and we will meet i was right to choose you and as I hear voice i got confused it was like a woman was speaking when everything went normal and I also started to woke up with sounds of strikng of thunders
When I awoke, Kalayri briefed me on the developments I had missed. "The previous round has concluded, and many students have been selected for the war and other perspectives. Unfortunately, those who fell short have been eliminated, leaving only 61 students remaining." Kalayri's words were laced with a hint of solemnity.
Just then, the atmosphere shifted dramatically. Dark clouds gathered, and thunder boomed through the air. The ground trembled beneath our feet as a massive hole opened up, revealing the final showdown between Adidev and Alex. The crowd held its collective breath as the two warriors faced off
Adidev, having attained the revered planetary grade 3 power , descended from the sky with an aura of invincibility. His spiritual form, having a thunder in his hand and heavy sword gleamed on his back, radiating an intense, electric blue glow. With a swift motion, he unleashed a devastating attack, hurtling toward Alex with unrelenting force.
Alex, his white hair dancing in the turbulent wind, countered with his mud magic. His spiritual form, a towering figure wielding a massive sword, emerged on his back. The sword's blade shone with an earthy, brown light, harmonizing with Alex's mud magic.
As the two warriors' magic clashed, the air reverberated with an explosive blast. The collision of their energies created a spectacular display of light and sound, captivating the audience. The sky transformed into a kaleidoscope of colors, with lightning bolts crisscrossing the dark canvas.
The ground shook violently, and the hole deepened, as if the very fabric of reality was being torn apart. The blast's shockwave sent the crowd stumbling backward, their faces aglow with awe.
And then, in the midst of this chaos, Adidev's bolt-shaped spiritual form began to glow brighter, signaling his impending victory. Alex's mud magic, though formidable, seemed to be waning against Adidev's relentless assault
I was slightly disappointed that the barrier didn't crack this time. I had enjoyed watching the warriors scatter when it shattered previously not enjoying people to get hurt but do.3hiw it felt good , I was also concerned does any one of them both got hurt but thankfully, neither Adidev nor Alex seemed severely hurt. The intense clash between them had ended after two minutes, with both warriors falling to the ground.
As I watched with bated breath, Adidev slowly opened his eyes and used wind magic to lift the sleeping boy into the air. The scene was breathtaking - a rainbow formed in the sky, and I couldn't resist capturing the moment through photos. The vibrant colors and majestic display left me awestruck.
Just then, the announcer's voice echoed through the stadium, declaring, "Tomorrow, there will be no matches. Instead, the selected 62 students will compete at a new stadium against 62 warriors from other regions." I felt confused - when were these other 62 warriors selected? The sudden revelation raised more questions than answers.
As the stadium began to close, I turned to Abhi and Anuj and asked, "Who are these 62 warriors from other places?"
Abhi replied, "Oh, you didn't know, right? This tournament serves a greater purpose - to form powerful teams to fight demons. As warriors, we have abilities to fight head-on, but survival requires stealthy attacks. That's why different warriors have been selected from various sects, like Adidev who was selected by the Temple, and Ayush and I were chosen by the Kali Assassin Group. You are a healer, while others have different roles."
Abhi continued, "The thing is, team formation is limited to 10 members, and always 62 teams are selected officially from the top matches which are selected to directly admit in Demon Execution Sect, the strongest army of human. Other warriors can also form their teams and then they will have to give exams and get selected in the army, but those tests are sometimes fatal."
He explained further, "Total in now 620 members will fight from tomorrow people were lucky that you directly selected in top 62 and they dint have to suffer , and daily matches will occur, and in the last, top 62 warriors will be selected. Those 62 will form the team as they want and whatever member they want, but if someone rejects, then they could add another member. "
Abhi clarified, "Don't worry, after entering the army, certain team can join any team they want. This always happens, but team formation is only possible when you are above 18, and that's why those Ayan and so many top warriors weren't selected last time, and the same happens. All warriors from 16 to 25 can participate in this battles every year , but joining the Demon Annihilation Sect is after only 18 years of age."
As Abhi finished explaining, I couldn't help but feel bored. I had expected something more intriguing, but the details seemed dull. "Okay, Anuj, I understand," I said, eager to wrap up the conversation. "We should train too, since we have a day to rest." We headed to our room, and I began practicing, absorbing energy as much as I could.
My art allowed me to absorb energy efficiently, and within an hour, I had gathered enough to start cultivating. However, my progress was hindered by the fruit's aftereffects from last night. It had granted me incredible power, but now I struggled to advance. I was currently at Planetary Grade Stage 2, no longer in the lowest phase.
In my Soul World, two planets had formed, each with two moons. The planets differed in size, one larger and one smaller, while the moons remained uniform. As I observed this, my interest waned, and I switched to watching a show. The episode featured an asteroid crashing into a nearby forest, which piqued my interest.
Curious, I asked Aruhi for guidance, and a map appeared in my system. I followed the map, navigating to the north side of the city, and entered the forest. A flag marked the location, reminiscent of a treasure hunt.
I was about to leave when someone knocked on the door. I opened it with a big scowl, but instead, I got a surprise! Adidev's hand went right into my mouth!
I was so shocked! Our faces were super close. Adidev looked really embarrassed, and his face turned bright red.
Then, he tripped and fell, and I fell with him! It was like those silly anime scenes where the guy and girl get all tangled up.
Adidev tried to get up, but his hand was still on my chest. He looked like a tomato! "S-sorry!" he stuttered.
But then, he tripped again! His fingers touched my lips, and he let out a tiny shriek.
I giggled. "Clumsy!" I teased.
Adidev grinned, his eyes sparkling. "Shut up!" he scremaed a little I got angered and bite his finger and he screamed
