(Unedited)
…
The students of the Skymountain School are already sitting around the open stadium and are currently looking at the two teams warming up on the arena ground.
Since this is a battle trial, the school did not prepare any complicated terrains and just uses the plain flat ground as the arena for the War Games.
The ground is already filled with the War Games teams of both sides that are currently stretching and preparing themselves for the face-off.
With each team having 20 people… and the 40 people on the ground is a bit of a crowd. The War Game is played like that of an American Football game. But instead of having a ball where the two groups would fight over… each team would instead knock down each other or target their team's captain. The team to be fully knocked down, or have their captain knocked down loses the game.
The game is timed for 30 minutes, with each team having a total of 3 times 2-minute breaks in between battles to heal the players.
The key to victory sometimes lies in how the teams would use their 2-minute breaks.
The ten attackers are already holding their wooden armaments, while the four defenders have their large shields or runes and small sticks, and the rangers have their bows and ten blunt arrows along with their knives. The rest… the Captain and the healers are also warming up on the field.
Everyone seems to be excited and nervous at the same time.
The first to battle would be the Skymountain School versus one of the current top ten, the Lightning Blade Academy.
"Students! Teachers! Coaches! And all the important people that are currently on stage watching this battle… … Let the War Games! Begin!" the emcee gave a small speech and started the War Games.
Unknown to them, early in the morning when Xin Ja arrives, he secretly installed around 5 recorders around the stadium.
Each crystal video recorder can cover a wide perspective, so he is confident that it would surely be showing a good view after the recording.
As the emcee introduces the teams, the student players walk in the middle of the field.
A person which does not belong to any of the schools involved is standing as a referee. Plus he is wearing a mask to avoid being compromised which would surely affect the standard of the War Games.
"I want to see a good and honest battle! Hehehe…" the man shouted with a chuckle.
"I'm kidding… Destroy each other!" he shouted.
This might be new to others especially those that are new to the teams, but the veterans are already used to this. This is kind of like a common opening phrase for those in charge.
No one knew when it started, but it surely became a famous quote before the War Games battles starts.
With the signal from the referee, both the teams immediately ran to form their battle formations.
There is another rule that was implemented in the War Games and the reason why the teams both wanted to destroy one another from the start.
It is the rule that… if both teams do not attack each other, both would be disqualified and be branded with dishonor. And once dishonored, the players in that team would be dishonored even after the game ended and they would carry such brand even after they finish their schooling.
So from the start… the War Games would always begin explosively.
As the two groups formed their captain immediately began to assign commands one after another.
The field began to be explosive as two forces collides one with another.
"This… so this is what they called War Games…" Xin Ja muttered as he stood with the team.
"Xin Ja prepare enough healing potions along with the others… We have to make sure that our team would always be in top condition…" an Elder commanded.
Xin Ja nodded his head and went to a tent where there are already some alchemists preparing potions for the team.
Inside the tent, he also saw the rest of the team who are already gearing up. Although the turn of the Ogden Academy would be 2 hours later, he could tell that everyone is actually tense.
"Why… why is everyone feeling a bit worried?" Xin Ja asked the person near him.
"Of course we are worried. Instead of the Skymountain School, we would be facing one of the top ten in the last City level War Games finals… how could we not feel worried?" the youth said while compounding an herb.
Xin Ja nodded his head as he understood why everyone is at the edge. But deep inside his heart, he still could not understand the fear his teammates are showing. This is because he watches the War Games outside and saw the fight in the field. According to his deduction, he could tell that both the teams might be strong, but they have a lot of holes in their movements.
Even though he is only at the 1st level, he could tell that with his skills alone, he could defeat any of the attackers from the two teams in a one-on-one bout.
When he receives the special plate from General Hou, he already knew that he would be assigned to either a Defender or a Hunter. So while watching the battles, he could not help but let his mind analyze the battlefield.
"But I guess... not underestimating our opponent would also be a good thing…" Xin Ja thought as he also began compounding a potion.
Suddenly a person walks behind Xin Ja.
"You should not be here… You should just have gone back to the academy. I think the potion that you create for us would only give us a reason to be defeated." That person suddenly said in a low tone.
Xin Ja squinted his eyes and looks at the person in the corner of his eyes. That person is one of the Attackers, he already recognizes the guy and it is the same guy that would look at him with a deadly stare while Senior Yao would talk to him.
Xin Ja did not understand why this person is angry with him, but he did not care. As long as he did not touch nor hurt him, he did not care.
Plus he wanted to know who those people were? Who were the ones who tied him up?
He did not know why but he suspects that this guy is one of them.
Xin Ja did not mind the senior and just continue on his concoction. The senior snorted then walks away.
The rest of the team also walks out of the tent while others glared at Xin Ja while walking.
The whole stadium began to erupt with cheers while the battle is happening.
Xin Ja was able to create ten potions and stopped.
He walks out and continues watching the event on the field.
He could now see that the Skymountain School is already at a disadvantage. Many of their attackers seem to be wounded, and some of them are even unconscious.
Although it was only a game, it also represents a real battlefield. Thought no death occurs, yet accidents happen.
He could tell the distressed expression of the student from Skymountain School. When he shifted his gaze to the other team, he was a bit astonished.
This is because they almost did not suffer. Only a few of them were wounded, and their forces seem calm and stable.
"Is this the difference between the top ten and the rest?…" one of the attackers from Ogden academy asked in a low voice.
"Yeah… Those from the Lightning Blade Academy are truly strong… I wonder how we would fare against them…"
"Do not worry guys… After this battle, they would surely be already weak and spent. We can defeat them easily. Who told them to be arrogant and challenge two schools at the same time?"
"Yeah, let's beat them to a pulp!"
"Look! Look! It's already starting…" someone called.
Everyone turns their attention to the field.
This time, the Skymountain School immediately went into a defensive formation. Their defenders, healers, and hunters suddenly went inside the turtle shell-like formation they created.
"Eh?! This is the classic Dragon Turtle Defense!"
"This is one of the hardest to crack formations…"
"That's right… But from the looks of it, the Skymountain School is on its last leg. They seem to have given up attacking if they form such a defense…"
"If I were the enemy, I would not attack anymore. It is already clear that the Skymountain School is already defeated. They could only wait for their time to end…"
Everyone commented while watching. Each of the students on the stage from the Skymountain School feels a sense of defeat.
They could only sigh in helplessness as they watch their team lose.
Suddenly, no one expected that the whole team from the Lightning Blade Academy would suddenly open their ranks.
Their captain slowly move forward and then stood in front of his team. He then proudly shouted.
"Why don't we decide the victor in a one-on-one fight? Captain versus captain..."
Upon hearing this, the whole open stadium turned silent.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
