Chapter 25: A Swift Conclusion
The crowd went wild after Leonardo's class was announced as the winner. He sent the other class' captain flying which was very exciting in the eyes of the audience.
As he was walking down the stage, Leonardo Regulus stared at Shye and smirked. Although he saw how his classmate Cleo was defeated by Shye, he wasn't threatened at all.
He was hiding his strength anyway and that's why he only claimed the 11th spot in the entrance examination.
In his mind, he was sure that he could defeat Shye.
"Hahahahaha! Did you see that? You better pray that your class doesn't run into my class early or you will suffer the same fate!"
Instructor Brodley looked at Instructor Fienna's direction and taunted.
"Hmmph! With just that? Crowley will just slap you guys back down to the ground again!"
Instructor Fienna retorted. She was confident that Shye would not let her down against such low-ranked opponents.
Shye didn't shrink back as he stared back at Leonardo.
"Oh?! Look at those two! I think they have bad blood between them!"
The crowd, the students from other courses, and the fourth-year students didn't miss this small interaction between the two captains.
After a few seconds of reading between the lines, they realized that these two classes were mortal enemies.
Because of this interaction, the crowd waited for Shye's match in anticipation. They already saw Leonardo's strength so they also wanted to see how strong the other guy was.
The next three matches involved the top 1, top 2, and top 3 students and as expected, they easily won their matches.
The crowd was in awe while the fourth-year students went silent and their expressions turned serious after witnessing the prowess of the top three students of this year's warrior freshmen.
"This year's freshmen surpasses even our generation when it comes to potential...I would love to see them fight in the inter-academy tournament four years from now..."
"We must try to recruit them to our society at all costs!"
The fourth-year students thought to themselves.
Anthony and Shirley were holding their own against the 10th-ranked Jason but they couldn't get any advantage either.
*BANG!*
What they didn't expect was, in just a single clash, the battle against the captains already ended.
Everyone who was fighting on the stage stopped and turned their heads to see what happened.
The crowd gasped followed by a sound of disappointment. After being hyped up so much, the fight ended just like that?
The fourth-year students from the top-tier societies shook their heads in disappointment. They wanted to at least see the guy named Shye Crowley hold his own for a while before being defeated.
If he did, then they would consider inviting them to their societies.
After a while, the smoke finally dissipated and the two captains were revealed.
Everyone's pupils constricted upon seeing the unbelievable scene on the stage. Shye Crowley was unharmed while Peter was lying on the ground, unconscious.
[Congratulations! You've earned 550 points!]
The match was decided with a single hit from Shye. After processing what happened, the crowd cheered wildly. They were ecstatic after seeing such exciting and unexpected developments.
Some of the students from other courses immediately decided to try and form a party with Shye in the future.
As for the fourth-year students, they were speechless.
The lower-ranked societies already made up their minds to invite Shye while the fourth-year students from the top-tier societies were forced to reconsider their decisions.
"This guy was definitely hiding his true strength!"
The fourth-year students thought to themselves. They estimated that Shye was at least on the level of the top 5 students just from the raw strength he displayed earlier.
The top 1 student looked at the stage with excitement and a wide smile on his face.
"Shye Crowley...How exciting!"
It seems that the competition for the top spots in the warrior course is going to be lively.
