Chapter 2189 Overnight
Chapter 2189 Overnight
Only after Donner's shout did Dayus realize that there is something odd about the positions of the other four duels.
Two of them are happening ahead of him, while the other two behind him. All four duels combined are forming a square. In each duel, both them opponents were in a locked state within each other's close proximity.
However, within that state the Thor academy members created themselves an advantageous situation.
In the first corner of the square, the thor academy student's back is towards the second duo where the second duel is happening, which is also the second corner of that square. In the second corner, the Thor academy student's back is facing the third corner.
The same with the third corner in which the back of the thor academy student is facing the fourth corner and in the fourth corner where the thor academy student's back is facing the first corner.
As soon as Donner shouted, they all kicked the ground and lunged backwards.
In the middle of that leap, they all turned around as they moved towards the Zeus academy students of the different corners from the ones they were previously fighting.
The Zeus academy students were caught off guard by such a sudden situation and before he could relax, the attacks came at them
*BOOM*
*BANG*
The explosions and the impact caused by those attacks is huge enough to destroy the whole stage on the four corners. The only part left is the center where Donner and Dayus were still standing. Of course, even there the stage is cracked and banged up.
Dayus was caught off guard, before he could make sense of what is happening, he felt five attacks coming at him. Four from four diagonal directions with him as the center while the one major one from Donner which is coming straight ahead.
…
Five minutes later.
Dayus woke up in daze as he looked around. He didn't know where he is for a moment.
*BOOM* *BOOM*
The loud explosions came from the stage. They forced him back to the present situation. His eyes widened in disbelief as he thought of the last thing he remembered before he blacked out. He was… defeated.
He lost.
Not against Sam, not against Kumar, rather against Donner.
Even though there were no deliberate rankings created among the players, it is already a given among the existing seven that Donner is the least strongest. Or in other words, the weakest among them. At least that is what he wholeheartedly believed.
But to think that he is defeated from the supposed weakest, this made Dayus furious. He wanted to destroy something to vent out. Killing intent surged from him as he looked for Donner among the crowd.
However, he was nowhere to be seen.
"Stop looking around and stay put. Don't make a scene."
He heard a voice and noticed that it was a Senior speaking to him.
Dayus frowned. When he was about to retort, the senior simply replied.
"This is an order from Elder Bloody Chariot. He said that you will act up after you wake up. So, he gave me these instructions especially to keep you in control. So, don't make me use force."
Dayus gritted his teeth and had to watch the next match of Thor academy and the Zeus academy.
After some time, the match between the second first grade match was completed. White led his team to a victory by himself. The competition for him is not as strong. Because of Ivar's activity, there are many cases filed against the Thor academy as well.
Even though their situation is not as bad as the Zeus academy, they still had a lot of their people gone for the punishment.
A lot of people of Thor academy of all grades are affected.
However, the Thor academy managed to snag a win in the second-grade fight. It was not overwhelming but it was good enough. Except it was drawn out for so long. By the time third grade fight which was won by the Zeus academy, it was way past midnight.
Both academies decided to postpone the fourth grade match to the next day.
And this happened to be a great opportunity for whatever that Sam wanted to do.
That night, the Zeus academy was still bustling. Everyone is either nervous or excited. The Thor academy's accommodations were arranged in an inn. The Zeus academy did offer them to stay in the campus.
However, Gungnir insisted that they will stay outside.
They stayed in an inn. All the fourth grade students were meditation. Even though the fourth grade consists of all Divine Plane Transcendence stage cultivators, right now only the Peak stage cultivators are there in this competition.
The same goes for the Zeus academy.
However, on the Zeus academy's side. Three of their top five students in Grade 4 are not actually there. They are in the middle of their twelve labors. Because their crime list is just one step below the teachers and instructors.
So, the Zeus academy happened to be on a weaker side in this game.
The Thor academy students are feeling pretty confident at the moment. In that confidence they are meditating in their own individual rooms.
A couple of hours before sunrise, Sam made his move.
Four metal bird puppets that had perfect stealth moved through the sky. They are perfectly merged with the night and they flew at high enough altitude to not be under anyone's detection.
When they were still at an undetectable distance away from the inn, the Thor academy students all had their bird puppets reacting to something.
The reaction for the first graders, second graders, third graders and the elders was negligible. They saw that it is weird the puppet's eyes are glowing, however the fourth graders had their birds knocking on the windows as if they are trying to get out.
The students felt something is really wrong. However, they didn't know what is truly wrong yet.
