Chapter 67 - The Two-Men Battle

The next day, Vincent and the others returned to Falcon Arena.

They all heaved a sigh of relief after seeing that the Falcon Arena had been completely restored.

After all, the competition was the focus of the entire country. In just one night, the Falcon Arena had been restored to its original state.

After the battle with Louis the day before, Vincent's reputation had grown massively. He was a well-known figure in the entire Falcon Country.

The host announced loudly that the finals for the one-on-one battle were about to begin.

The one-on-one finals were supposed to be held on the same day as the semi-finals. However, as Vincent's World of Hellfire attack destroyed the entire arena, they had to postpone the finals.

The fighting ring had been prepared. Just as Vincent was about to enter the ring, Mokissner's Pujstark admitted defeat.

This was the first time in the history of the special enrollment competition that a participant from one of the top three schools admitted defeat voluntarily.

However, no one was surprised.

Since Pujstark had admitted defeat, the two-on-two competition was scheduled next.

The two-on-two competition was different from the one-on-one competition. The points were no longer allocated to the individuals. Instead, the points were allocated to the individual schools.

Each school would send two participants to participate in the two-on-two battles. The points from the two-on-two battle would then be added together with the Peak Battle's points. The total points will determine the school's rankings.

After the host announced the rules, they started to draw lots.

Schools that only had one participant were excluded. However, there were still more than two hundred schools participating in the duels.

Similar to the one-on-one battle, the two-on-two battles all happened at the same time.

The participants were all extremely nervous as they looked at the lots being drawn. Some of the schools were even praying that they would not be put up against Quinn.

They were all afraid of Vincent.

The combat skill that Vincent displayed the day before had put a lot of pressure on the participants.

Although he was no longer allowed to use World of Hellfire, the participants were still afraid that they would not be able to handle Vincent's other combat skills.

"The first round of the two-on-two match, Ring No. 62, Quinn School and Jones School!"

"Whew!"

Everyone heaved a sigh of relief when they were not paired up with Quinn. They looked at the students from Jones School with sympathy. The Jones School only had two participants.

The two participants from Jones looked at each other and smiled bitterly.

Although Jones School only had two participants, they were both S-Class superpowered users. They were in the top 16 for the one-on-one battle.

Many people said that the Jones School stood a great chance in the special enrollment competition.

Even the Education Department of Falcon Country was supporting Jones.

However, their luck was not good. They were matched up against Quinn in just the first round.

Vincent did not think much of it. It did not matter who the opponent was. So long he was around, it was impossible for his team to lose.

"Vincent, although these two guys are not bad, I'm not interested. I don't want to join this round."

Chris yawned. He looked disinterested.

Vincent initially did not plan for Chris to go up against them. He was worried that his fighting spirit would be too overwhelming.

However, as he chose to back out voluntarily, it saved Vincent a lot of time.

"This round, Angelina and Nabil will fight."

Vincent thought for a moment before he gave the order.

Angelina did not have much interest in fighting. She was stunned when she was called out by Vincent.

"Why me? I don't want to!"

Angelina pouted. She was unwilling to fight.

Vincent looked at Angelina and smiled.

"There are many battles. All of us will have to go on stage eventually. Do you want to go on stage now or later?"

Angelina did not say anything. She just stared at Vincent with her big watery eyes.

"It's not like there's a rule that everyone has to participate. Why don't you and Chris just clear the stage together?"

Angelina mumbled softly under her breath. Avril glared at her and she shut her mouth immediately.

Vincent smiled faintly and ignored Angelina.

The draw was over. The host instructed all participants to go on stage.

The fighting ring this time was bigger in size as compared to the previous fighting ring. After all, there were twice as many people, so there had to be more room available in order for them to display their superpowers.

The audience was all focused on Ring No. 62. They were all looking forward to Vincent's battle.

However, they were disappointed when they saw Angelina and Nabil on stage instead.

Angelina and Nabil's performance in the one-on-one battle was not very outstanding. Therefore, there were not many people who remembered them. They only knew them because they were from Quinn.

When the two participants from Jones Academy saw that their opponent was not Vincent, they heaved a sigh of relief. At the same time, they were also very angry.

They could not believe that Quinn had selected their weakest individuals to fight them. Although their previous performances were not bad, they showed contempt for them.

The two of them looked at each other. They could see the anger in each other's eyes. They made up their minds to teach Quinn a lesson.

The referee announced the start of the match. They immediately used their superpowers but were restrained by Nabil's Holy Light Binding.

Although they were only restrained for a short second, by the time they could move again, Nabil's 100,000 Lightning Strikes had been unleashed.

Bang!

The two of them fell to the ground, their bodies twitching.

The entire battle lasted less than two seconds. Many people had not even finished saying their first words.

"The first round of the two-on-two match, Ring No. 62, Quinn School wins!"

The referee was certain that the two students from Jones would not have the strength to fight anymore so he just announced the results.

"Oh my god! What just happened?"

"Exactly, it ended before I could even react!"

"It seemed like only Nabil made a move."

"That can't be! His fighting strength was not as strong in the one-on-one battle yesterday!"

"Who knows? Maybe Jones's two students were just too weak."

"Top 16 and you say that they're too weak?"

The audience was discussing the battle. They were all expressing their puzzlement over the battle.

The two-on-two battles lasted much longer than the one-on-one battles. It was already noon when the first round ended.

After the second and third rounds, all of Quinn's contestants except for Vincent had gone on stage. All the fights ended very quickly.

In the fourth round, Quinn's opponent was Mokissner. One of the two participants was the runner-up in the one-on-one battle, Pujstark.

The other was also an opponent that Vincent had fought before, Brandy.

"For this match, Nabil and I will go up."

Vincent's tone was somewhat solemn.

Vincent was very clear about how strong Chris was. It was obvious that Pujstark was not weak if he could defeat Chris. Vincent was very worried that accidents would happen when they were on stage.

Chris was unhappy about losing to Pujstark. He wanted to fight him and redeem himself.

"Chris, you have just completed a battle and you are not in the best state. This is Pujstark's first battle. You will not have the upper hand here. If you want to get back at him, there will still be opportunities in the future."

Vincent said to Chris in a deep voice, "A two-on-two battle concerns the school, not us. We cannot afford to be careless."

The two-on-two battle was also an elimination system. Once the battle ended, one of the two schools, Quinn and Mokissner, would definitely be eliminated.

Chris still wanted to argue back. However, after seeing Vincent's reaction, he could only sit at the side and sulk.

Vincent ignored him. He glanced at Nabil, and the two of them walked into the fighting ring.
