However, this contest was not that simple.
The academy would hold this event every year after the enrollment of new students. This was also to test the students’ true ability. It would be carried out in the form of a duel between students from the beginner to the elite classes.
Soon, two days had passed.
And today was the very day of the contest at Leicom Academy.
Everyone in the academy gathered in the square. The beginner class sat in the east corner, the intermediate in the west corner, and the elite class in the south corner.
As for Gerald, favonovel.com sat beside Dean Sumeru.
Seeing Gerald sitting beside Sumeru, everyone was in shock. They were curious about what his status was so much so that favonovel.com was receiving such good treatment.
“Fellow students, today is the annual martial arts contest of our academy after the enrollment of the new students. As always, the students from three different levels will join the contest and duel with each other!”
After that, Master Ykink came forward and explained the flow of the event to the students.
“Next, let me introduce you to one person. He’s the student of our dean, Gerald Crawford. He will join this contest as well. You will have the chance to duel with favonovel.com later!” Master Ykink introduced Gerald to the other students.
The whole crowd was stirred up at once with all the people talking about the same thing.
Who would have thought that Gerald would become a student of the dean? As far as they knew, the dean had never taken a student under his guidance. And now, Gerald had become the first one. This made them wonder how strong Gerald was.
“Master Ykink, I have a question. If we beat him, does that mean that we will also become the dean’s student?”
Suddenly, a student from the elite class stood up and asked Master Ykink.
Master Ykink was stunned after hearing the question. He turned and looked at Dean Sumeru.
Sumeru pondered for a moment before standing up and saying, “Dear students, anyone who can defeat favonovel.com will become my student!”
Upon his words, it once again caused a stir among the students down the stage. It was clearly a rare opportunity for all of them. Thinking of becoming the dean’s students just by defeating Gerald, they were very much willing to do it.
However, it would not be that easy, as it was impossible for them to defeat Gerald.
“Great. Next, let’s start with the first duel between a beginner student and an intermediate student. I shall invite the two classes to send out their respective students to the centre of the square!” Master Ykink said to the students immediately.
Having said that, a student from each of the classes walked to the centre of the square.
It was a battle between a beginner and an intermediate right in the first round. Although the contest might seem unfair, it wasn’t. In truth, the distribution of the students of different strengths varied among the three levels, so there might be some strong and powerful characters in the beginner class.
Soon, the duel between the two students at the centre of the square started.
It was worth mentioning that the student from the intermediate class was quite satisfactory. Whether it was his attack skills or speed, favonovel.com was more excellent than the beginner student.
Even so, the beginner student was not easy to deal with either, and favonovel.com didn’t get defeated too soon.
The two students fought for a few rounds before the intermediate student finally defeated the beginner student and won the battle.
Regardless, the beginner student’s performance was considered quite good. It was just that there was still a small gap between his ability and his opponent’s.
“Well, the victory of the first round goes to the intermediate student! Next, for the second round, let’s welcome a beginner student and an elite student!”
With the first duel ended, Master Ykink announced the second match.
A beginner student actually had to fight against an elite student in the second round. It seemed to be too demanding.
Naturally, nobody from the beginner class dared to step forward.
