18 The entrance ceremony 2 (1/2)
”Now, let's greet the first years!”, the principal announced.
For the last 30 minutes, students of the second and third year moved into the Colosseum to watch the mock battle while the first years were lead to room preparing for the battles.
”The fights will be done in teams of three. Find yourself a team or you will need to fight alone”, a tall man came into the room.
He was very muscular and wore a tank-top, making him look even more badass that he was already.
”Yo Sun, this dude looks tough, I wonder if I can fight him?”, Evan pushed Sun with his elbow.
Sun just rolled his eyes.
”So freshman, I'm the magic combat teacher here, Wolfgang Knight, nice to meet you all. As I've said before, you need to form teams and I will give you 1 minute, GO!”
As soon as his words were heard, everyone went to look for strong looking allies.
Evan, Edward, and Sun simply exchanged a glance while smiling.
Whereas the other freshmen were still running around searching for a team.
Normally, a student suite consists of four students, so if they form a team, there will be a person left out and that person need to find a team.
The freshman year got around five classes à 12 students, so it's about 60 students. Since they need a team of three, there will be 20 teams.
After some seconds, people have found their team and stood in a row signaling they're ready.
Sun and his friends did the same and there were 20 rows of students.
Wolfgang Knight saw it and continued with his explanation.
”During the battle, everything is allowed, except killing the opponents. Only if all of the opponents are knocked out, can't fight or want to surrender, you can move to the next round.
The winning team will receive bonus resources and their Student Level rise by one security code - meaning they can access to more knowledge and have more privileges than the other first-years.”
”You got that?”, the teacher raised his voice by a little.
”Yes, Sir!”, all students replied at the same time.
”Good Luck, I'll be the referee of the matches, so make fair fights youngsters!”
”Yes, Sir!”
With that, Wolfgang Knight left the room.
Soon after, an artificial voice announced the fight. Some students entered the stage through portal magic and started to fight.
The fights between them were not very spectacular and Sun was disappointed that some students seem not to be as strong as he hoped for.
”Wohh, that guy used air magic, right? He is still damn slow in my eyes!”, Sun thought while observing his opponents.
While he thought like that, others were fascinated by the varieties of magic.
”Wow, dude, did you saw that? His control of the wind element is pretty good!”
”I know, but the water elemental girl is going to be more difficult with her water shields.”
...
After three fights, the voice finally announced the fight of Sun's team.
”Let's go and smash them!” Evan was fired up as always.
”I'll be slowing down the enemy, while you guys finish them off by brute force magic!”, Edward said.
”That's a plan! Let's do this!”, Sun said.
He hopes to win the mock battle in order to be a step nearer his vision.
He wants to climb up the social ladder to live a good life and is willing to grab any opportunity that comes to him.

”Lucifer, it's time to shine!”, Sun flowed inside his mind to Lucifer.
”Bro, just use Arcas to destroy them mentally, no need to use brute force!”, Lucifer said lazily.
”I know, but I want to show off a bit, so I'm going to use the standard transformation form.”
”Yeah, got that. Good luck. I'm going to play with your smartphone later.”
”Whatever.”
