The fights on the other platforms were still going on but most of the spectators were all observing the Platform where Sam was fighting. Even after Sam finished fighting, they were still staring at him as if they were looking at a monster.
After all, who would defeat an opponent who was of a higher level than you using their own techniques. It is more an insult than a defeat. Sam really rubbed the man's face that he was trash.
Nobody wants to lose like that. They were even thinking why this fellow was doing such a thing, taking action to that extent for a tournament. He can beat her normally, right?
But only Sam and the three of them knew that it wasn't that simple. The three target Sam on purpose and Sam is just playing around with them.
Nevertheless, the fight continued. But Sam was not challenged, instead the other top 10 accepted the challenge one by one. Soon, Jack is challenged.
Both Sam and Jack know who the man is. He is Drew. The swordsman who was also one of the 14-man team leaders who wanted to fight against Sam's team.
Jack slowly stepped off the stage with an ordinary sword. Right now, he was not using the Black meteorite sword, as there might be someone who knew the material of his sword and he got into trouble. He needs to get a scabbard to cover it up to take him after the tournament.
"I will make you regret what you did to us? Both you and Sam are just villagers, how dare you sneak up on us from behind?" Drew said as soon as Jack came to Peron. He was really angry and jealous because he lost to Sam and Jack even with the superiority of an incredible amount and that too, when they caught the others in a weak state. He only made excuses for himself out of embarrassment to reply to her.
Jack said nothing at all. He just stared at Drew coldly. He was also a little annoyed at the final battle. He was overwhelmed with numbers and these people also tried to gang up on him. If he was at his best, he might be able to sweep the floor with these people. He was already angry at them and wanted to find a way to settle the score and here they gave him a chance firsthand.
Drew held his long sword while pointing towards Jack. He quickly moved as the sword made an elegant arch in the air as it headed towards his arm. Drew took aim at Jack's arm.
Jack did not move at all. His sword is still in his scabbard. Just before the sword made contact, a sharp sound could be heard and Drew felt his sword meet another sturdy blade before straying from its original direction.
When he regained consciousness, Drew's arm trembled as he held the sword in midair. He looked around to find that Jack was still in the same position. No change at all. Even his sword had no sign that it had been plucked.
Drew was a little confused. He did not know how he had strayed from his original path. But he clearly missed his target, but the other party didn't seem to be moving at all.
He shook his head and swung his sword again. This time he aimed at the other party's chest. But just like the previous time, right before he made contact, he missed. The other party was still standing there with no signs of movement.
'What happened?' This question not only rang in Drew's head but also many spectators. After all, there were plenty of people paying attention to the members in the top 10 participants.
Drew gritted his teeth and tried to calm down. He attacked again but missed. He again attacked by aiming at different body parts.
Arms. Fumble
Foot. Fumble
Cardiac. Fumble
Eye. Fumble
Rod body. Fumble.
Heads. Fumble.
He continued to attack and attack only to be missed. He felt as if he was aiming in the wrong direction completely. All he knew was that every time he attacked and the sword would make contact, he could hear a sharp sound and that was it. By the time he regained consciousness, he was standing there like an idiot.
After several relentless failures, Drew backed off and kept his distance between the two of them.
"Let's see, how are you gonna avoid this?" He gritted his teeth and began to concentrate. His long sword started to glow with spiritual energy. He held the sword with both hands and swung it.
"Switch Andrew's style. It's raining swords" said Drew and started making sword moves. There were sword lights in the form of punches, slashes, stabs. The combination of sword movements was done with a very basic sword movement. The sword light did not immediately move. They froze in the air as if they were waiting and with the last slash, all the sword lights started moving towards Jack.
The air around him changed sharply. The dangerous sword aura emanating from the movement clearly showed the threat it was about to pose.
"Switch Andrew's style. It's been a long time since I last saw this." Castor said as he touched his chin.
"Yes, the child making this seems to have a good sword talent. The rain of swords was not a simple move. But he could still learn it while he was still at the late stage Acolyte. But I think that movement will only look its full strength, when it is done at the Beginner level." Count Falcon also commented from the side.
Even the crowd was watching to see how Jack would handle this.
"That's young master Drew. After all, he was a prodigy and his family's sword style was quite unique."
"Yes, I think others may not dodge."
"Yes, even if he is good at dodging attacks this time covering too many areas. I think it's pretty hard."
His hand slowly moved towards the sword hanging in its sheath on his hip. He held the sword hilt with his right hand as his spiritual energy began to circulate.
"You're not as bad as I thought." Jack said to Drew and just as a lot of sword light would fuse towards his vitals. He has a grin on his face. "But you're still not good enough to bring me down." After these words, Jack plucked the sword from its sheath. A majestic sword light shot out along with the sword and immediately shattered the sword shower.
"Image of the Sword." Jack nodded slowly. Drew only looked with his weak body as his attack disappeared and the sword light was still heading towards him. He felt all his nerves and even his desire could feel the sharpness of the sword light.
Before he could understand this feeling of sharpness.
*Freedom*He felt his flesh split apart as a deep wound formed in his chest. Before he knew it, he fainted from blood loss.
"Winner Jack. Plus, one point."
"Candidate Drew. Minus, one point."
The elder stated as Jack walked down. He stood beside Sam and exchanged a nod.
"The movement is good." Castor said to the Count.
"Why are there so many good candidates from Starwood city? First a man named Sam, who is good at everything we test today and now this man. His sword style is unique. The movements are elegant, fast and there is no extra movement at all. It was as if he was too lazy to make any extra moves, but every move he made was extremely accurate and precise." The Count also gave his evaluation.
The audience was also surprised by the development.
They thought Jack would try to dodge or survive. They thought that Jack was strong from his previous appearance, but he never thought that he would be strong enough to not only fight the strongest attack from his opponent, but he never thought that he would be strong enough to not only fight the strongest attack from his opponent, but they never expected that he would be able to do it in one fell swoop.
There have been changes in the top 10. Eve and Shor come out after their first challenge. Sam actually thought he would be very challenged, but in fact the most challenges were directed at Hawk.
Right now, Hawk is fighting with someone else Sam knows, actually more like the one who fought with Sam.
Ray and Hawk were standing on stage.
"Hawk, today I'm going to take you down. You've been at the top too long."
"You can try then." Hawk answered and began to form hand signals.
Ray swung his sword towards him, but the sword did not move at all. Just before the sword reached him, he floated in the air as he moved backwards. Then before Ray tried to make his next move, blades of wind began to form around him, the wind that condensed in the form of blades began to attack the ray from all directions.
Hawk continued to make hand seals as he sent wind blades one after another. Ray keeps himself busy. He cursed in his heart so much. This was the reason he made the first move against Hawk, to not fall into this wind blade trap. But he failed again.
Just when he was about to relax a little. He heard Hawk's voice.
"Let's get this over with."
It was then that he realized that he was too focused on the wind blades. When he saw Hawk, he was done making the seal.
"Double wing slashing." Hawk muttered as the wind element energy condensed into an Eagle and the two extremely dense blades of wind in the form of Wings began to move towards him.
Before he knew it, he had two deep wounds on his chest as he flew off the stage.
Sam was impressed by Hawk's use of wind energy. Surprisingly, Hawk turned towards her and smiled.
Time passed; sam was getting bored. He expected some challenges but no one challenged him. After Yash's defeat, the strange trio also did not challenge him at all. The top 10 spots had not changed much. Except Eve and Shor, replaced by Ray and Drew. There's no change. Surprisingly, the eleven and twelve places were familiar to him.
Jessie and Dustin were eleventh and twelfth.
Just when he felt there would be no challenge, Hawk went on stage and called his name.
Sam immediately got the energy.
"Finally." He said as he walked towards the stage in high spirits. After all, he had seen Hawk fighting and he was pretty much thinking of getting his own hands-on experience.
