MIGHT AS WELL BE OP

Chapter 16: Challenge



They were made to sit on chairs that surrounded the arena, they sat according to their rankings, the higher the rank, the higher the seat

"This is the final round, which is not compulsory since you all are already accepted by the Academy, this round is for those who are not satisfied with their final rank, you can only challenge another ranker once, the top 20 have a right to preserve their ranks and can only be challenged by people within the top 20 and their battle would be the last, as you all are already students, Academy points are already allocated according to your rank, if you challenge anyone and lose, all your points would be transferred to that person" she allowed them to digest what she said for a while before she continued

"The watch on your wrist is an Academy artifact provided to a all students, it contains your ID, your points, Academy rules, map.

You can use the watch to select the ranker you want to challenge and you both will be transferred to the arena and the fight will begin in a minute after you arrive at the arena, you may begin"

With that she disappeared again, as she left many people looked at Anthony, looking at the human who was too handsome to be human and too weak from his mana rank to sit on the first seat, but nobody was an idiot here, nobody would believe someone who triumphed over superior races was a mere F rank

Anthony already closed his eyes, as if he wasn\'t interested, but he was secretly watching, waiting to see the suprise his classmate would show.

Tiara kept staring at Anthony with her blood red eyes, even the Dragon named Bryan that ranked third stared at him, all making their battle intent known and radiating powerful aura and ready to pounce at him.

Many people were teleported from their seats, only a few remained who didn\'t wish to challenge anyone and were satisfied with their rank.

The matches almost started at the same time, Anthony watched all matches at the same time, seeing the ability of the so called golden generation, though he didn\'t show it, he was extremely happy, he was finally seeing and entering the magic world, now he can explore, he could free dive from now on.

He watched all matches and in 7 hours all matches ended, the rankings didn\'t really change, majority of those who challenged those above them lost, but they didn\'t go out without a fight, but it didn\'t matter, their points were gone

They were all healed by the healers and they all got back to their seats, and all their eyes gazed in the direction of the top 20 who sat like the rulers they were, especially one that released a pitiful aura but was extremely handsome and sat at the highest seat, if the others were kings he is their emperor.

The vice principal appeared again, she seems to be coming and going a lot, she said

"Congratulations to those who moved up the rank, and to those who got free Academy points"

People laughed at those who lost their points, some people\'s face turned sour as they were reminded of their loss

The vice president continued "Now unto the main event, the top 20, i declare it\'s beginning" with that she vanished

Anthony looked at his watch, to see who challenged him and what he saw nearly made him laugh.

He was challenged by ten people, from rank two to rank eleven all him, he turned his head and looked at them and saw they were all looking at him as if he kidnapped their children, he shook his head and just raise his right hand in the air, signalling he wanted to talk to the person in charge

The Vice President appeared and looked at him with her blood red eyes, as if she wanted to stare into his soul and she asked "What do you need Rank one Null Anthony"

Anthony smiled and said "I don\'t have time to battle all ten of them one by one, I request to take them all on at once"

His word cause utter silence, even people at the VVIP were speechless, The Dean looked at Null Collins and asked "Has your grandson always been this daring or does he not understand what is happening"

Collins frowned, looking at his grandson, wondering what was going through his head, although his grandson surprised him with his strength but challenging all ten of them was a different all together, that was too arrogant of him, but as a grandfather he should believe in his grandson, who knows he might give him another scare

Collins smiled at the Dean and said "Why don\'t we just watch and see, only time can tell"

The Dean looked at him and shook his head and talked to the Vice President through telepathy, telling her to accept the challenge

The Vice president looked at Anthony staring at him, trying to understand what this young human boy was thinking, even the ten people that challenged him looked at him like he was a fool, even other students were stunned, some felt he was too arrogant, some weaker ones felt awe, some wondered where he got his audacity from.

Michael looked at his son, though his facial expression didn\'t show it, he was too shocked he never thought his son would like act like this, he thought his son was chewing more than he could swallow, but his son hasn\'t acted out since he was born so there was no reason to act out now, so he chose to believe in his son.

The human ranker won\'t normally challenge the top rankers because they were to powerful, but their generation is different, they believed they aren\'t weaker than other races now and the first ranker was human like them, they refused to believe they were weaker, and now this fellow dare to take them all together plus other races, they sneered at his arrogance.

The rankers in the lower tens from 12 to 20 didn\'t bother challenging anybody, they could get the rank they wanted during mid-terms for free, why lose points for just an increase in rank, they were already in top 20 and will be in the same class so there no benefit for them, asides if they want to challenge rank 1.

The Vice President looked at Anthony and said "Your request has been accepted, after arriving at the arena the match would start after two minutes when you arrive at the arena" with that she disappeared, Anthony and the ten challengers appeared in the arena spanning 40 kilometers and a massive barrier surrendered the arena, when someone looses consciousness or surrenders they would immediately be teleported out.

Anthony stood in their midst thinking of how to fight them, he thought of creating ten clones and send each to fight a student while he sits down on his throne eating fruits, \'this should have more effect\', he thought but he shakes his head and dismisses the idea, and decided just to fight, though he won\'t hold back his punches but that won\'t mean, he would show all his cards, that would make him predictable, especially against \'The forsaken cult\', he was ready to have a fight with them.

Everyone already brought out their weapons to fight, and took their stance waiting on the signal, Anthony smirked at them

After two minutes, Vice Presidents voice sounded "Begin".
