<h4>Chapter 207: Team knockout exercise (3).</h4>


    ''Just a random thought. What will happen if I use Ebony and Ivory against the golden barrier, will it break?'' ke asked the system.


    [Although Ebony and Ivory are at the peak epic tier you haven''t even neared its current power cap. So, it should be safe.] The system replied.


    The current main skill of the legendary sword was cognitive empathy and apart from the active skill of Ivory that made him immune to Beyoni''s illusions, ke hadn''t even used the skills of Ebony for once.


    "Begin!" The referee announced the start of the match.


    "I really wonder what gives them the confidence." Luciano shook his head as he saw the opponent team rushing towards them.


    Owen Ulrik''s team wasn''t making the same mistake as Beyoni''s. Instead of defending, they chose to gain the advantage by being on the offensive, or so they thought.


    Owen began preparing earth spells to support his team, while d activated lightning reinforcement and dashed towards ke''s team along with Ansgar and the rest of the team.


    "Alright guys, let''s show them their ce." ke said as Ebony and Ivory appeared before splitting into dual des.


    ke went to meet d head-on but before he could blink, ke was already behind him with Ebony swinging towards his neck.


    Earth eruption!


    At that moment, multiple earth spikes erupted from below aiming at ke''s lower region, forcing him to withdraw his attack and retreat.


    ''With him here, things will be slightly difficult.'' ke thought as he looked at Owen who still had his arrogant smile on his face.


    Being from the Ulrik family, Owen was the best Geomancer in the school. The only reason Haldor was above him was that his barbaric fighting style and skills inbining fire and earth elements were excellent.


    Without effort, ke dodged the iing wind des and fire arrows, but when d''s lightning bolt came at him, he epted it with open arms.


    Literally!


    "Is he crazy?!"


    Everyone was waiting to see ke sent flying, but what happened shocked every one of them.


    Zzzzg! Zzzzg!


    When the lightning was a meter away from ke, He used the passive skill of an electrode and his insane mana control to redirect it to Owen along with his own lightning bolt.


    BOOM!


    3yers of earth wall erupted from below and blocked it just in time, but that was when ke appeared right in front and stab through them.


    Ding!


    Owen''s golden barrier appeared just in time, protecting him from the lightning-infused Ebony.


    "How is that possible?!"


    "What? When?" Owen who had been teleported out of the battlefield was confused about how he had been eliminated.


    "Don''t try to block his attacks, only dodge them." d announced to his teammates, but that was when Luciano who was engulfed in golden mes appeared right in front of Calvin.


    ''Shit! He is too fast!'' Before Calvin could do anything, Luciano grabbed him by his throat before lifting him and squeezing his throat.


    A golden hue from Calvin''s badge covered his body before teleporting him out of the battle.


    Luciano wasn''t done yet, he stretched his hands towards Ansgar and a sea of golden mes plunged at him.


    Ansgar conjured 2yers of earth domes, but Luciano controlled the fire to converge at one spot using his will.


    BOOM!


    The force of the fire wave crashed into the earth domes, breaking through it and attempting to roast Ansgar alive, but the golden barrier appeared before teleporting him out.


    Everything was happening so fast, d was unable to help Ansgar in any way and when he turned to hisst surviving teammate, he saw him on the floor protected by the golden barrier.


    "What the fuck?!" d looked up but ke was nowhere to be found.


    "Looking for me?"


    Hearing the familiar but annoying voice, d turned back to see ke, but that was when he heard Luciano''s voice.


    "They are almost done so let''s wrap things up." Luciano said.


    Going against the rank 1 and 2 in such a close range, even a retard will know it was all over.


    "I surren…" d wanted to surrender, but that was when ke''s fist knocked him out.


    "Winner Team 7!" The referee announced.


    "Was that necessary?" Luciano lightly chuckled.


    "Na it was just fun." keughed.


    "Why the look on your faces?" ke asked when he saw mixed feelings in their expressions.


    ''How is this still a team exercise?'' Brian thought.


    ''They should have made this two form their own team.'' Castiel said.


    "Erm… nothing." Tessie struggled to say.


    "You don''t have to worry, thepetition officially starts in the next match." Luciano said to the three as he began walking to the resting area.


    Most of the students had the same thoughts as Castiel and Brian. ke alone was a beast on the battlefield and Luciano was an unsurmountable wall, forming a deadlybo.


    The normal thing was meant to be the rank 1 and rank 2 being in different teams and contesting for the 1st position, but here the reverse was the case.


    They couldn''t do anything butin because ke and Luciano were in no way breaking the rules.


    After the 3rd round was over, both teams were given some time before the final round began.


    "We won''t have the advantage of the darkness, water, and nt element because of Damon, Esmeralda, and La respectively." ke said to the team when they huddled up.


    "We have the advantage when ites to lightning, fire, and earth. Meaning we would automatically dominate the offense, so we should be mindful of our defense."


    …


    The students who were analyzing both teams agreed with the first part butpletely disagreed with the second.


    They argued that team 1 dominated the water element because of La, Esmeralda, and Cami. nt because of Esmeralda, Darkness because of Damon.


    As for the earth element, it was Haldor because even though it wasn''t his main element you couldn''tpare the rank 4 to someone in the ''30s.
