"Now, we will start applying what I told you by putting it into practice. You will do so with the neighbor group to you. Now, the first 1st and 2nd groups will fight in this arena while the 3rd and 4th groups will fight in this. The other groups will replace them after they end their practice fight." Instructor Valeria explained, pointing to the designated areas for the practice fights.

As our group made our way to the designated arena, I couldn't help but feel a sense of anticipation. This would be our first fight as a team, and I was eager to see how we would perform.

Once we reached the arena, we took our positions, with Kieran and I standing in the front, Lila and Ardel in the middle, and Max at the back, ready to provide cover fire with his bow if needed.

The early positioning was done.

I looked at our opponents - the 3rd group. There were three noticeable people in their group - 2 students who made it into the top ten: one triple-elemental mage, one a swordsman; and one top twenty who is an archer. The other two were probably between the top 80 and the top 100.

"Start!"

As soon as the signal was given, our opponents wasted no time in launching their attack. The triple-elemental mage conjured swirling gusts of wind, while the swordsman charged forward with lightning speed, and the archer took aim with his bow.

I looked to my left and spoke. "Keiran, you take the swordsman, just keep him occupied and make sure not to let him pass."

"Ok." Keiran nodded, readying for the confrontation.

"Lila, Max, you will provide support from the back. Keep the archer pinned down and try to disrupt the mage's spells."

Thankfully, Lila and Max nodded in understanding, positioning themselves strategically to cover the area with their attacks. Perhaps it was due to my 'reputation' and 'rank'.

"I will attack their tank and try to get past him and attack the mage and the assassin. Ardel, you should seize that chance to take out either their archer or mage, ok?"

Ardel nodded, a determined look on his face. "G-Got it. I'll t-try my best."

With our plan in place, we sprang into action. I charged forward, my sword ready, aiming for the tank-like swordsman who was barreling towards us. He met my attack head-on, his blade clashing against mine with a resounding clang. Though his sword was a great sword, I made up for it with my strength.

Meanwhile, Keiran engaged the swordsman, his movements fluid and precise as he blocked and parried the opponent's strikes. He managed to keep the swordsman occupied, preventing him from breaking through our front line. As expected, he was a good

Lila and Max... They were doing fine.

I only hope they won't mess up.

As for Ardel, as expected, he seems determined but still appears awkward.

"Guh! E-Even if you are the first ranker, you shouldn't underestimate us!" The swordsman grunted as he pushed against me with all his strength.

I turned at him in response, my muscles straining against the force of his attack. "I don't underestimate anyone," I replied coldly (I must have looked cool!). "If you want that bad, then I won't hold back!"

With a burst of strength, I pushed back against the tanky swordsman, catching him off guard and sending him stumbling backward. Taking advantage of the opening, I darted past him, heading straight for the mage who was in the midst of casting a spell.

At the same time, Ardel made his move, launching a barrage of ice shards at the archer who was trying to take aim at Max. The sudden attack caught the archer off guard, forcing him to duck for cover behind a nearby pillar.

But just as I reached the mage, I felt a sudden gust of wind behind me. I knew who it was even without looking. I instinctively ducked and performed a leg sweep, knocking the sneaky enemy assassin to the floor before he could land a blow on me.

"Nice try," I said, my voice dripping with coldness as I looked down at the fallen assassin.

"Gulp!" I could even hear him looking at me with fear and gulping for breath.

Did I scare him too much?

Anyway, now wasn't the time to gloat. With the assassin temporarily out of commission, I turned my attention back to the mage, who had now finished casting his spell.

"Take this!" He shouted pointing his hands toward me, no, he was targeting Keiran who was starting to get overwhelmed by the swordsman.

That was definitely a smart move, so, he didn't make it to the top ten with just strength, huh?I watched as three lightning arrows got past me at an alarming speed, aiming directly at Keiran. Reacting barely, I swung my sword and managed to deflect one of the lightning arrows, but it didn't dissipate instead dispersed across my sword directly coming toward my body.

I instinctively let go of the sword, successfully avoiding the danger.

But the same couldn't be said for Kairen. Though he managed to deflect one of the lightning arrows, the other one still hit him on his chest, sending him flying backward with a grunt of pain.

"Keiran!" I heard a loud shout from our backline and saw Lila looking at the triple-elemental mage with eyes filled with fury.

In an instant, she unleashed her aether and cast a spell. What surprised me was, she finished it in no more than three breaths.

"You need to pay for what you did." I could distinctly hear her muttering as she unleashed the spell. Wow, my initial guess about her having a crush on him must be correct.

Then, I should help her to get her 'revenge'.
