A Destained Young Master Villain

"This kid is finally up!" Folmon exclaimed with a broad grin.

"Let\'s see whether he truly is as strong as rumors say." Navarre added to what Folmon just said.

All three elders then changed to having serious expressions, and their eyes focused on Zen\'s group walking towards the battle platform.

All the people on the sidelines also hushed down, as they had also been looking forward to this moment to witness the battle.

The other professors and the groups who were currently battling with them were quite interested on watching, but unfortunately they needed to continue their mock battle and would be unable to watch.

Fortunately, there would probably be video recordings of Zen and his group\'s mock battle with Hawkin, so they could just watch later on.

Finally the group arrived in front of Hawkin, and he became a bit vigilant as he had seen Zen fight before, back when the beast outbreak occurred.

Although he was a Magister rank mage, his strength and mana were currently suppressed to a Great Mage rank.

"All right then, it looks like you all are ready; let\'s start." Hawkin announced as he raised his index finger and middle finger together, moving them slightly, signaling them to start attacking him.

As soon as his words dropped, the two people from the Duragny, who were both swordsmans, rushed towards Hawkin with their auras coating both their swords and bodies.

Both jumped upwards, intending to chop down Hawkin, but once their swords got close to Hawkin, he raised both his hands that were covered in mana, and his hand that was enveloped in mana parried both swords. 

Then, after that, he grabbed both swords. Those two tried pulling their swords from his hands, but in the end, Hawkin spun them around and sent them flying.

They quickly stabilized their bodies and were able to land on the ground on their feet.

Seeing this, Elmkelm also moved and rushed behind Hawkin while forming a small type of magic attack the size of a peeble that was then shot towards him.

It may seem small, but once it reached Hawkin, that peeble sized attack exploded, which then formed a whirlwind, immobilizing Hawkin.

"Now\'s the chance!" Elmkelm shouted at the other members of the group.

With the opportunity Elmkelm gave them, two of the swordsman from the branch of the Raverdieu family rushed forward, and the other two from the Duragny also rushed forward, delivering fierce sword strikes enhanced by their aura and elements.

Xue also took out her sword and enhanced her foot to increase her momentum. She launched herself toward Hawkin, intending to slice his neck.

Anastasia and the other mages stayed at the back, forming their own magic attacks, which they prepared to launch after the assault initiated by the swordsman\'s to avoid hitting them.

Just as the swordsman\'s were about to get close to Hawkin, ten haloes of fire suddenly emerged, surrounding Hawkin and circling around him.

Hawkin raised his hand, and one by one, those halos were sent towards all of them, including Zen.

The swordsman\'s who were rushing towards Hawkin were again sent forty meters backward. Of course, Hawkin did not use much power since he did not want to injure them. 

On the other hand, the mages who originally prepared their attack for Hawkin saw the halos of fire coming towards them, so they had to launch their attacks now to cancel it out; otherwise, they\'d blasted away.

Both magic attacks collided, but in the end, Hawkins attack was much more powerful. Although the force of the halo was reduced to a certain extent, they hurriedly enhanced their physiques with mana and dodged to the side.

But surprisingly, Anastasia\'s magic attack was able to cancel the halo of fire.

The magic element she practices is shadow. The attack she sent out to cancel Hawkins magic enveloped the halo of fire, sucking out all the heat, and it gradually lost its momentum until it finally vanished into thin air.

Zen also easily canceled out the attack by slicing it in half using his katana; additionally, his katana has an ice attribute that ended up destroying Hawkins magic without effort.

"Damn it, what is this?! We can\'t even get close to him!" Roland complained.

\'Only if Zenryx Raverdieu joins in the assault would we have a chance. Why is he not budging and simply watching?!\' Elmkelm said in his mind.

Of course, he did not have the courage to scold Zen out loud, so he just simply glanced at him, feeling dissatisfied.

\'What the hell?! He clearly is completely capable, with how he was able to destroy Professor Hawkins magic easily. What the f*ck is he doing?\'

Anastasia also looked toward Zen, trying to figure out why he had been staying out of the battle. 

The three elders, who were also watching from the top of the arena, were also bewildered.

"What is this sh*tty brat doing?!" Silvanna spoke.

"Now, now, let\'s just wait; he is probably just letting the others test the waters first." Navarre replied as he was typing the assessments of each of the individuals participating in the mock battle.

Folmon nodded his head, agreeing with his words.

Since they have heard how strong this youth is from Hawkin and the other professors from their report of the beast outbreak incident, they\'ve been looking forward to seeing how Zen fights.

Returning to the mock battle...

"Is that all you guys got?" Hawkin blurted.

Hearing him speak, they then returned their attention to Hawkin and focused. They all got ready, and this time they all exerted their full strength, and all of them surged with power.

They wanted to go all out this time, and so they charged at Hawkin fiercely, and a battle of nine against one broke out again.

Nine of them attacked Hawkin relentlessly, but just as they were all attacking him non-stop, four sword pillars appeared in the surrounding area, emitting lightning that shook the area, vibrating through the air.

Four large sword slashes covered with lighting element simultaneously bolted at Hawkin.

This attack would also implicate the people who were attacking Hawkin.

Seeing this attack coming towards them, they all thought, \'F*ckkk, what the f*ck is this!\'
