The air exploded once more as the Rune-fang Rabbit activated Arcane Leap. She didn't intend on ascending but to descend at rapid speed.
She instantly landed on the Ironback Tusker's metallic back with a thud.
Evan's had just landed on the ground when he felt something landed behind him.
Shocked, Evan turned and immediately saw Mythril landed on his back.
He didn't take long for him to figure out how she managed to land in his back so quickly.
Even though his back was now exposed to his opponent which is a sure kill spot for most beast, Evan wasn't scared.
His back was armored and protected by seamless set of carapace that was extremely tough to break though. Not even beasts one levels higher than him could easily penetrate through his defenses.
His blood suddenly boiled and an overwhelming feeling of rage and power pounded through his veins as he activated Metallic Charge.
Immediately, his speed increased drastically, crossing over fifty meters in just three seconds as he slammed his back against the stage walls.
However, Mythril was even faster.
[Mystic bite (lvl 3)]
Her fangs glowed an iridescent light as it suddenly grew more than another inches tall. The jaws in her mouth squirmed as the muscles there hardened, reinforced by a ferocious force even deadlier and stronger than that of a crocodile.
Her bite force increased drastically and without hesitation, she immediately bit at Evan's spine.
The spectators shook their head when they saw this. Although Mythril combat awareness was a bit higher, when compared to the tank of a beast called the Ironback Tusker, she was a bit on the weaker side. It would be difficult to defeat the beast.
The students as well as various parents spoke amongst each other witnessing the battle.
Evan's snorted when he saw this. Not even a level 3 beast can easily go through his Metallic carapace not to mention a level 2 bush rabbit like Mythril. He didn't mind her and proceed towards the stage wall with overwhelming force.
In that instant, an extremely loud crack rang out through the entire stage.
"Crack!"
Underneath her maws, the thick carapace shattered like brittle tempered steel. Evan's eyes opened wide in shock but he wasn't able to react when a massive pain shot through his spine.
"Crack!"
His spine shattered and he lost all movements in his legs. His body fell in the ground and the charging force crashed him against the stage wall.
"Boom!"
Dust cloud rose up to the skies, spreading over the stage as it covered the two beast within.
The spectators watched at the edge of their seat with curiosity in their eyes.
"Was Evan's really defeated?"
"How was Mythril able to shatter through his defenses!"
"It's no doubt, her Mystic Bite would have surpassed level 2 to be able to penetrate through such thick hide!"
After a few seconds, the dust cleared and the winner was revealed. The Rune-fanged Rabbit stood at the center of the stage, staring at the downed Ironhide Tusker.
"The winner is No 87, Mythril Flarestorm, Class 3. "
The audience was also shocked.
Clearly, this scene had exceeded their expectations.
"Wooooo!!!"
Those from class 3 immediately cheered and laughed happily at the defeat of someone from class 1.
"Aren't you guys always so arrogant?"
"Yeah! Where's your face now."
"Haha, I didn't expect those from class 1 to be so weak."
The students from Class 1 had ugly expressions on their faces. They always pride themselves as the elites of Harvard high and treat those from lower classes with contempt they didn't expect to be defeated by someone from Class 3.
The Principal was surprised to see Mythril turned the situation around. It has to be known that even he didn't know the situation would have such big turn around.
The envoys from various academies were also surprised as they discussed amongst each other.
The Envoy from Verdent Haven University, Taernel nodded his head and said. "Her combat awareness are impressive. Moreover, her skills have been sharpened thoroughly that it has reached the third stage."
Another Envoy from Eryndor University, Usrael inputted her thoughts. "At the third stage, one's abilities could rival symbiotes one level higher than them."
The Envoy from Crown Horn University, Herald also spoke. "It's obvious she has been through various combat experience to reach this level."
Suddenly, the Arcvale University Envoy Luthur, snorted in disdain. "Weren't you the one saying The Ironhide boy was impressive just now? Hypocrite!"
"Hehe, I was wondering when you will endure it for. Guess patience isn't your strongest suit. It's no wonder your academy has remained weaker than ours." Herald sneered, his cold laughter echoing with his words.
Luther was even more annoyed. "Let's wait and see in the upcoming Academy Meet. Your Crown Horn Academy will have nonplacw in the rankings."
"Hehe, Arcvale doesn't have that ability." Healed waved his hands and ignored Luther's words.
The two academy had been fighting for more than a decade due to the death of their students. The trail lead to the Crown Horn academy students.
Crown Horn academy of course denied any involvement with the matter, to which Arcvale Academy responded violently to. Hence, the rivalry.
Next competition was announced.
No. 51 and No. 36
No. 51 was not so famous, his name was Malrik; however, he had to face Zarion.
"I withdraw." Malrik raised his hand, full of frustration.
Hearing him, no one laughed at him. One of them owned a Level 3 bronze beast, while the other Symbiote was a Level 4 Silver grade beast. There was no need to compete, it would just be a waste of time.
"No.7 against the No. 20."
Contestant No. 7 and No. 20 both owned a Level 3 Symbiote which led to them continuously battling in the middle of the stage. It was hard to tell who was winning.
"Cross Slash!"
"Breaking Fist!"
The two did not want to struggle with each other anymore, they both used their best skill. The claw and the fist touched in the air.
"Boom!
The No. 7 contestant was slightly weaker; he was forced to back out few steps. However, No. 20 contestant did not stop there, he kicked away the opponent after throwing a strong attack.
"No. 20 contestant Kaelion wins!"
