Chapter 131: The Battle Royale Competition


    Every student who remained nced at each other. Almost every person who lives in the royal capital, Stolz City, knew that the highest mountain in the Kingdom was that very mountain.


    They were shocked when they heard that it was the venue for the Battle Royalepetition. At the same time, all of the students that were participating in thepetition understood why it was not held in the Alstan Stadium.


    This mountain was named after one of the academy'' founding fathers, the first and only one to ascend the rank of the Venerable Seishin God from the human race, Verrater von Stolz. It was also the ce where he ascended to Godhood so it was a pretty famous ce for the old students for training.


    Teacher Kyleen exined everything her students would need to know about the nextpetition. In one hour, she was able to exin the rules and regtions of thepetitions, the things to remember, and some tips to help them survive in this gruesomepetition.


    She didn''t want her students to do that bad because it might discourage them in the future like what nearly happened to Kraftvoll and his two sworn brothers after they lost. After all, these students were the cream of the crops of the Holy Alliance, they could not afford them to quit the seishin cultivation world because someday these kids would be the leaders of the alliance.


    After all that hour of exining things about thestpetition of the academy''s yearly tournament, Teacher Kyleen decided to give her students the rest of the time so that they will be able to prepare themselves for the next time.


    Kraftvoll and the others who participated in the previous twopetitions decided to enter into deep meditation to regain the inner seishin essences that they had used in their previous matches.


    The one who needed to replenish his inner seishin essences was Kraftvoll. After all, he tried to conjure the Serpent Wave seishin spell by just using his inner seishin essences.


    Although it was just a seishin spell at the Seishin Captain rank, it was still able to use up a considerable amount of inner seishin essences of Kraftvoll''s. He also used a Seishin Sage ranked seishin spell which means that he used many seishin essences in the previous match.


    The time passed by very quickly to the kids who entered deep meditation. After all, they weremuning with nature itself so that they will be able to gather inner seishin essences properly.


    One by one, the nine representatives of the first grade started to finish their deep meditation. In the end, Kraftvoll was the only one left who was still in deep meditation. He really spent a huge amount of inner seishin essences among everyone.


    A few minutester, thirty minutes before the nextpetition, Kraftvoll had finally finished his deep meditation.


    Kraftvoll opened his eyes after he managed to replenish all of the inner seishin essences that he had used up in the previous fight.


    "Is it time for the Battle Royalepetition already?" Kraftvoll asked after seeing everyone staring at him as soon he opened his eyes.


    "We only have fifteen minutes to get to the venue of the Battle Royale, First Brother, so we better hurry now to get there on time," said Prince Aragorn with a calm demeanor.


    "Oh. Did I spend almost two hours in deep meditation? Let''s go then! I think we can barely reach the venue in time after going right away." he said in response.


    The nine representatives of the first grade from the previouspetition started walking toward the venue of the Battle Royalepetition.


    While walking on their way to Mt. Verrater, Prince Aragorn and Godwin started to be anxious about the next round. They started gazing toward the scars that they received from the strongest seishin practitioners of the eighth grade.


    These scars can only be described as hideous because the Lava Barrage seishin spell of the Ice Queen burned a portion of their flesh. For children like Kraftvoll and his sworn brothers, it was a terrifying experience.


    Kraftvoll noticed what his two sworn brothers were doing. Without him knowing, he also gazed toward the scar he obtained from the finals of the three-manpetition in his left abdomen.


    He asked to himself after seeing his ugly scar, ''Do I have to get through that pain again?'' He started to be anxious again about joining thestpetition of the yearly tournament.


    While anxiously thinking about that, he remembered something. He remembered the main goal of why he had entered the academy in the first ce. He remembered the revenge he had sought getting after his parents were killed and he had no power to avenge them at that time.


    He remembered the scene in his home back then. He remembered how he entered his home during that atrocious time, only to see his parents stabbed by that cursed Earth Spike seishin spell.


    ''The pain back then is much more than I felt now. I have to endure something as little as this if I want to avenge their deaths!'' he strongly thought to him. His hands gripped that ugly scar of his thinking the pain he felt that day.


    After thinking that, Kraftvoll''s motivation for getting stronger was lighted again and it was stronger than ever. His desire for revenge became more dominant than it was before after he had remembered that pain.


    When he saw that his two sworn brothers were still dishearted, he rushed toward them and he put his hands toward their shoulders. He said, "Hey! Let''s get stronger together! Let''s beat those guys next time!"


    The anxious faces of his two sworn brothers all vanished. After all this time, the two of them were still anxious about joining thepetition. Although Prince Aragorn showed a cold demeanor when he answered Kraftvoll earlier, deep inside, he was still as anxious as Kraftvoll and Godwin.


    After hearing their First Brother''s word, Prince Aragorn and Godwin smiled. It was the first time that the elven prince showed his full smile toward Kraftvoll and Godwin.
