Chapter 117: First Years Versus Fourth Grade
Before the time given to them to replenish their inner seishin essences, Kraftvoll and the other boys were able to fully replenished their inner seishin essences. They were now ready for the next battle.
Shortly after that, they decided to go on their way to their seats inside the Alstan Stadium. They sat beside Teacher Kyleen and the girls. Everyone that was currently present in the stadium was impatiently waiting for the competition.
"Hurry up! We want more fight!"
"We came here to watch! And not just to stare at each other! Give us some fight!"
"Fight! Fight! Fight!"
After they had watched those spectacular fights, all the spectators were thirsty for more. The organizers of the match were forced to continue the competition as early as they can.
After a few minutes, the organizers decided to continue the competition. With the command of the higher-ups, the emcee of the match entered the stage arena to commence the continuation of the three-man team competition.
He started talking to his sound-amplifying seishin device so that the next round of the three-man team competition could finally start.
"The break for the participants is over! Now, let's start the semifinals of the three-man competition!" announced the emcee of the yearly tournament.
The audience that came to watch the tournament started to cheer after hearing the announcement of the emcee. They had been impatiently waiting for this in the past few minutes.
To continue the competition, the emcee requested something from the audience. He said, "Everyone, let's keep it down, shall we? We're going to start the competition right after a moment of silence."
After the audience quieted down, the emcee continued talking to his sound-amplifying seishin device. "Now for the first match of the semifinal of this competition! I would like to call to the stadium's arena the representatives of the first grades and the fourth grades!"
Kraftvoll and the other boys stood up from their assigned seats after hearing that it was time for them to fight. The girls said their wish for their classmates' good lucks. Kraftvoll and the other boys decided to smile in return as they went to the stadium's arena.
"Good luck President, Vice-President, and Godwin!"
"Good luck boys! Give them all you got!"
Before they were able to get far away, Princess Kyomi stood up and shouted, "We lost to their classmates so please avenge us! Good luck, boys!"
Kraftvoll raised her hands while doing a thumbs-up hand gesture. This made Princess Kyomi and the other girls very happy so she sat with a wonderful smile on her face.
The fourth grade's team this time was composed of members from one of each of the races belonging to the Holy Alliance.
The enemy Rearguard-Support is a High Seishin Captain ranked human seishin practitioner. While the enemy Attacker-Recon is a High Seishin Captain ranked elven seishin practitioner. The last member of the Fourth grade's three-man team, the Attacker-Tank of the team, was a Middle Seishin Captain ranked dwarven practitioner.
Kraftvoll and the other boys that belonged to the first grade gazed toward their opponents.
Their opponent's expressions showed them that they have mixed feelings about them.
Mostly, the members of the enemy team felt very worried about the Entry Seishin General cultivation base of the first grade's team leader, Kraftvoll.
When both teams arrived at the stadium's arena, the emcee decided to not delay the fight any longer. The audience was getting restless so he started the match shortly after the participants reached the arena.
"Let's not delay this match any further! Both teams bow to each other as a sign of respect!" said the emcee while looking at both teams.
Kraftvoll and his sworn brothers bowed down to their opponents which also done by the enemy team.
After seeing this, the emcee finally announced the start of the match. "Now that everyone is ready for the match. Let's bot delay this any further! Let the match begin!" said the emcee while backing down from the stadium's arena.
As soon as they heard the emcee's cue, all the members of both teams stepped away from each other. This was a custom in a fight between seishin practitioners because even one's seishin spell can be fatal to oneself.
The first one to take the first initiative to move is the members of the enemy team. They decided to start conjuring seishin spells. Each of the three members chanted their own seishin spells.
After seeing that, Kraftvoll and the other members of the first grade's team thought that the enemy team is going to a conjure defensive seishin spell so they did the same thing as well.
Kraftvoll chanted, "Ye who represents stability, grant thy wish..."
At the same time, Godwin chanted, "Oh ye who represent the breath of the world, I command thee..."
While Prince Aragorn chanted, "I command thee, Illuminate thy master's path..."
In contrary to what Kraftvoll and the other boys had thought earlier, only one member of the enemy team decided to cast a defensive seishin.
The enemy Attacker-Tank was the only one assigned in conjuring all of their elemental armor. She conjured the Earth Guard Mania seishin spell which is also used by one of the members of their class' six-man team in the previous competition.
The other two members of the second graders' team decided to conjure offensive seishin spells that were launched toward Kraftvoll and the other boys.
The enemy Attacker-Recon was able to conjure destructive wind gusts which he launched toward Kraftvoll and the other boys.
At the same time, the enemy Rearguard-Support decided to conjure the Ice Rain seishin spell that was cast by their previous opponent from the last round of the competition, but the scale was on a different level, it was higher in terms of power and speed.
Unlike the destructive wind gusts conjured by their Attacker-Recon which was launched in front of them, the Ice Rain seishin spell was launched toward Kraftvoll and the other boys from above.
Seeing what their opponents had done, Kraftvoll and Godwin glanced at each with a smile. These two boys decided at that moment to change to their team's battle strategy.
