Chapter 353 World League: Senior Division Preliminaries (Part-1)



Battle passes are like one\'s identification card in the league. Each pass has a unique identification number, which will be linked to a candidate. Of course, one can impersonate another candidate using a disguise card as long as they can acquire the battle pass. In that case, they can only try their best to not get caught because it can result fine or even jail as punishment.

After several millennia filled with such incidents, people rarely try to do that.

Azzy and Leah joined up the line. Neither of them had any intentions to pretend like a pig to eat a tiger. So, both of them didn\'t suppress their soul power.

There are several Arcana Masters who looked young. So, no one gave them too much attention until they reached the verification zone, where a high-level official is checking their battle passes. This guy is a peak-rank-7 expert. So, usually, no one dares to argue with him.

A trace of surprise appeared on Edward as his eyes fell on Leah, "Princess Leah?"

"It\'s been a while, Deputy Commander Edward," she just smiled in response.

"But, what are you doing here? This is senior division." It was a little bit hard for the deputy commander to believe that she was participating in the senior division where the mortality rate is quite high.

"I\'m here to participate in the duo category. This is my partner, Azrael," She replied to him. Her words might sound a little bit off if one thinks in a different manner but Edward was already in great shock. How would he be able to think of anything else?

He could only see Azzy and fell into trace because Azzy also looked young. He highly suspected that this person is a teenager or atleast around Leah\'s age because his soul power isn\'t in Exalt realm.

If she had to choose an adult, why would she bother choosing a guy in rank-6 and that too, a commoner? She can just choose one between her paternal uncle and aunt who are below the age of 100, rank-7, and are of high status.

It only makes sense if this guy is a son of the heavens.

Edward then composed himself and greeted Azzy, "A pleasure to meet you, I\'m Edward Fawley, Deputy Commander of heavenly academy\'s security, and one of the combat instructors at the academy."

"Hello," Azzy gave a simple nod.

The lack of expression and enthusiasm displeased Edward but the latter had to keep up his appearance before the princess. He no longer paid attention to Azzy and looked at Leah, "I wish you the best of luck, Princess Leah."

The exchange of words indeed attracted the attention of the others standing behind her. They started murmuring.

"Thanks." Leah smiled and showed the battle pass as a formality. Azzy also followed the suit.

Soon, both of them entered the academy leaving behind the knights. As they weren\'t participants, they were forced to make a round trip to the northern gate while Leah and Azzy proceeded toward one of the Arenas.

A day ago, Azzy had visited the academy for registration but he entered through the northern gate and didn\'t get to see the buildings in the southern sector.

Since they didn\'t have a lot of time left, Azzy didn\'t get to go on a tour and just walked directly towards the Battle Arena-6 where their group was allotted to battle.

Unlike the junior division, the senior division didn\'t prioritize one category over the other. All of them will happen at the same time, although in different Arenas.

The solo contestants will battle in Arena-1, 2, and 3; the duo groups will battle in Arena-4, 5, and 6; and the teams will battle in Arena-7 and 8. As for the Grand Arena which has over a million-seat capacity, it was saved for the top-8 rounds.

So, that means the schedule can clash if one registered for more than one category. That\'s why a lot of people will try to focus on one category unless one is crazy about acquiring fame and rewards.

Like the other arenas, Battle Arena-6 has 75 waiting rooms where it is mandatory for the contestants to stay there instead of watching from the stands.

After their battle passes have been scanned and verified once again at the back entrance of the arena, Azzy and Leah stepped inside. A young woman greeted them with a smile and she escorted them to the waiting room which is already occupied by four people. Two of them looked young while the other two looked like middle-aged men.

"Oh, great, another set of kids." One of those middle-aged-looking men complained as soon as Azzy and Leah stepped inside the room.

"Hey, check out the girl. She\'s damn beautiful, isn\'t she?" One of the young men whispered to the other while staring at Leah.

"Shh, both are in the Upper Elite realm. Their identities might not be normal." The other young man shut up his friend\'s mouth.

Maybe, the middle-aged men also heard his comment. They instantly tried to sense Azzy and Leah\'s soul power.

It terrified them a little bit. "Peak-rank-6 and High-rank-6?"

Quickly, the room became silent. Leah and Azzy didn\'t talk to them and just took their seat in the corner. None of the four dared to speak out for a while before a young man stepped forward and introduced himself. "Hello, I\'m Edwin Light and this is Therald."

Azzy raised his brows as soon as he heard the name. However, he was here just as the supporting character. So, he refrained to talk and let Leah speak everything.

Leah was also a little bit surprised for a second before she smiled in response, "I\'m Leah Pendragon and this is my partner, Azrael."

"Pendragon?" The middle-aged men freaked out a little bit. The young men, on the other hand, behaved normally. "Nice to meet you."

After introducing herself, Leah asked, "I\'m sorry but do you know someone named Theodore Light?"

This time, it was Edwin\'s turn to get a surprise. "Do you know my brother?"

"He is my friend," Leah replied to him. Just about a few days ago, Camelot received an invitation to Theodore\'s coronation ceremony. So, acquainting with his brother is a good thing for her kingdom. It was nothing personal and just purely business.

Seeing that there\'s a connection between those two, Edwin got a little bit excited. He tried to converse more with her, using his brother as a topic. "So, how do you know my brother?"

Leah instantly replied, "We were classmates from grade-3. Coincidentally, we graduated almost at the same time due to our respective family situations."

"Eh? You were classmates?"

It was then he finally realized that this heavenly beauty is only 17 years old and lost his interest. After all, there is a solid 13-year gap between them, and in his eyes, she isn\'t even a full-fledged adult. So, it is morally wrong to flirt with her.

"I see…" With a crestfallen look on his face, he was forced to end the conversation right away, "well, I pray for your luck and hope to meet you again at my brother\'s coronation ceremony."

"Thank you. I wish the same to you." Leah maintained her smile, not showing even an ounce of her true thoughts on her face.

Soon, the last pair arrived in their waiting room and introduced themselves.
