Chapter 355: Show of Strength (1)

Bloed was not very surprised when the fox girl chose him. Quite the opposite, he was expecting it.

The reason? His club was the 'weakest' of all the clubs here.

The leaders and representatives of the other clubs were very strong. Even the weakest of them was at the late stages of A-Rank, and many of them were at the peak of A-Rank.

Bloed, on the other hand, was just a late-stage B-Grade ESPer, and that was after his psychic energy was boosted by the Heart of the Forest two months ago. Otherwise, his cultivation would have been lower.

That was an entire rank below the other leaders!

Gina was even worse. She was just a D-Rank practitioner. Many people were even wondering why she was here.

Thus, the combination of Bloed and Gina was effectively the weakest club in this ceremony.

After the fox girl challenged Bloed, the other leaders and representatives left the stage. They returned to their seats to watch the battle between [Queens of Fire] and [Machine Revolutio].

Bloed felt several gazes on him while they were leaving. Some were filled with curiosity, others with schadenfreude, and one of them, coming from a black-haired girl, was filled with worry.

However, Bloed did not pay attention to any of them.

He just took a deep breath to get ready for the battle.

"Miss Meola, how do you want to do it?" Headmistress Wave asked after the other clubs left. "One against one or two versus two?"

"One against one." The fox girl said with a slightly arrogant smile. "I don't want to bully them so much."

Bloed rolled his eyes before smiling at Gina. Understanding his intention, Gina smiled back and returned to her seat together with her two bird pets, leaving only Bloed on the stage.

Immediately after that, Bloed and Meola, the fox girl, got ready to start their battle.

"Is Big brother Bloed going to be alright?" Prince Calisto could not help but ask with a worried expression. "T-That girl is much stronger than him."

"Don't worry. Bloed is very strong. Actually, I can't imagine him losing unless he faces a demigod." Liu Ying replied with a relaxed shrug.

Prince Calisto was startled.

Was Bloed really so strong?

To his surprise, though, he realized that he was the only one worried.

Liu Ying, Aya, and even Gina were looking towards the arena as though they were going to see a good show. They did not seem worried about Bloed losing

Only Regina was looking at another place.

She was looking at a black-haired girl looking at Bloed with an anxious and concerned expression.

And judging by the way her mana and killing intent was leaking out of her body, it seemed like she was going to jump into the battle at any moment.

Regina frowned. But one second later, she sighed and whispered something softly.

"Don't worry about him. He is not so weak as to need your help."

Immediately, the black-haired girl jumped in surprise.

"Who?" She put on an ice-cold look and looked around her, but she could not find the owner of the voice.

"Just don't interfere. He never needed your protection all these years, and he doesn't need it now." Regina spoke up again indifferently, before stopping paying attention to her and fixing her gaze on her master.

As for Eres, although she was confused, she calmed down slightly.

Then, her beautiful black eyes focused on her brother.

In the arena, Bloed looked at the fox girl in front of him with a serious expression. He did not hesitate to take Tito out and order it to turn into an armor.

At the same time, Leto turned into a whirlpool of metallic sand that circled around him while Oculus hid in the sky above them.

Bloed did not dare to underestimate the fox girl in front of him. Even if her club's rank was just ninety-six, he knew that the fox girl was strong.

Her cultivation was at the late stages of A-Rank; and she was a student of Academy City, so her true strength should be stronger than her cultivation.

Of course, Bloed was not afraid. But he just wanted to be ready just in case.

Seeing that, the fox girl raised an eyebrow with an amused expression.

"Don't worry too much, kid. I'll go easy on you."

"Really?" Bloed smiled. "Then I should thank you in advance."

The fox girl was startled before chuckling softly.

"Hehe, you are an amusing kid. I saw what you did during the entrance ceremony. I must admit that you are pretty strong and talented for someone of your age. Unfortunately, you are still too young. I don't plan to lose to a B-Rank."

"Well, I can only do my best then."

"You should." The fox girl nodded and chuckled again. "Don't make it too easy for me."

Immediately, her friendly and playful aura changed completely.

A powerful fighting intent surged around her, and flames started to leak from her fox tail and ears.

Even from twenty meters away, Bloed could feel the heat of her flames.

In an instant, the fox girl had turned into a Queen of Fire.

"Are you ready?" Headmistress Wave asked at that moment. "Then, let the first battle of the War of Clubs start!"

As soon as the Headmistress signaled the start of the battle, the fox girl moved.

"[Fire Queen]!"

With two words, several magic circles appeared around her, turning into a giant five-meter-tall fox of fire!

Then, the fox of fire took a step forward before launching itself towards Bloed!

The giant fox of fire arrived in front of Bloed in an instant. It opened its mouth and let out a roar, before raising its paw and attacking Bloed!

Such a powerful attack surprised many of the spectators. It was an attack reaching the peak of A-Rank!

It was obvious that despite her words of before, the fox girl did not plan to hold back.

But when the students spectating the battle thought that Bloed was done, the metallic sand around him surged up!

Then, it turned into a gigantic wolf mouth filled with electricity.

"ROOOOARRRRR!!!"

With a roar, the metallic wolf clashed against the fox of fire!

*Boom!!!*

The clash of the two beasts created a shockwave that extended until the stands. The barrier protecting the audience shook fiercely.

However, the sharp-eyed students noticed that the two beasts were not equaled.

Despite its fierce appearance, the metallic wolf was being pushed back by the fox of fire!

It was obvious it would be defeated before long!

But despite that, Bloed was calm.

His blue eyes flashed with a confident glow, and his gaze pierced through the gaps in the fire and the metallic sand, meeting the eyes of the fox girl.

With a thought, [Split Mind] was activated, followed by [Overdrive].

Then, he raised his saber.

"[Imaginary Slash]."

With a calm voice that resounded through the entire stadium, his saber was swung down.
