Obtaining Legendray Dragon Template At The Start As A Side-Character!-Chapter 48: The Trial V
The next round was between Group Seven and Group Six. Most people bet on the victory of Group Seven. Even Reinh was sure that Group Seven would win.
However, the strategy that Group Seven used to win shocked all the spectators. Even so, they did not mock it or look at it with contempt.
Instead, they even felt that this strategy was the closest to the nature and temperament of the Vorhelm Clan.
Group Seven and their leader beat the entire enemy group very badly. They beat them so violently that the members of Group Six became terrified, scattered, and wanted to run away.
However, Group Seven did not allow this. They caught them and beat all of them.
Because of the fear that entered the hearts of Group Six’s members, none of them could or dared to stand against Group Seven.
After Group Six was crushed, Group Seven went toward the knight. This knight was the same one who had been present in the first two rounds.
The leader of Group Seven, Zane, picked up two wooden swords and attacked the knight like a wild animal, starting a one-on-one battle.
To everyone’s surprise, just like Reinh, he also succeeded in pushing the knight back. He even knocked the knight’s helmet loose a few times and caused several light wounds on his face.
In the end, feeling that he had no chance to win alone, he asked his group members for help. Half of them rushed at the knight and tried to beat him.
The knight, feeling like he had fallen into a pack of wild animals, had no choice but to hand over the flag and surrender, otherwise he felt that he might really be killed by these wild people.
Many spectators did not cheer loudly for Group Seven, but there was no mockery or humiliation either. The strategy they used was barbaric and wild, but it was a successful and acceptable method. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚
The next round was between Group Three and Group Five. Unlike all the previous rounds, this was one of the closest fights and competitions. Both groups had equal strength, and neither was better than the other.
At first, the two groups fought each other, but when they saw that neither side gained any advantage, both decided to cooperate and attack the knight first.
Whichever group could get the flag during this would be the winner. Group Three managed, purely by chance, to use an opportunity and take the flag.
And in this way, the winners of the first phase of the group trial were decided.
Group One, Group Nine, Group Ten, Group Seven, and Group Three succeeded in moving to the second phase of the group trials. It was decided to give the winning groups half an hour of rest before continuing, so they could deal with their thirst and hunger.
It was also necessary for them to give some rest to their minds and bodies and prepare for the second phase.
This phase showed all of them that, unlike what they had thought, there were capable rivals among the young generation, and they could not be completely arrogant.
"I hope we don’t end up against that crazy Group Seven or Lady Diana," Aron said in a hopeful tone while lying on the ground.
"Don’t be such a coward, you useless fatty. Even if we face them, so what? We’ll beat them!" Selen looked at him with contempt and said in a mocking voice.
"Even if we can defeat Group Seven, I still don’t want to face wild crazy people like them. What if they suddenly surround me and start beating me? Even if I’m strong, I can’t defeat a hundred wild animals."
"Don’t worry, they will probably mistake you for a bear instead of a human."
"Did you just insult me?" Aron ground his teeth and looked at the girl angrily.
"I just said the truth." But Selen shrugged, and it was clear she did not care at all.
Neria watched their fight like it was a movie and laughed quietly to herself.
"Stop your stupid fights. We need to prepare for the next phase," Lioren stopped both of them, then pointed at their leader.
Reinh ignored them and just sat there calmly with his eyes closed, as if he was meditating and resting his mind.
Seeing their leader calm, they also became calm and felt at ease. That’s right, as long as they had him, they would not lose.
Their trust in Reinh was truly like the trust subordinates have in a leader. They felt that as long as he was by their side, they would never lose.
"I hope you have used your half-hour rest well, because the time for the second phase of the group trial has arrived," Elric’s calm voice echoed clearly across the trial ground.
All the spectators and participants turned their attention to him.
"In the second phase, all five groups will compete at the same time. The groups must protect their leader so that the group leader can place their leadership bracelet, which has a small flag as a symbol, onto one of the two platforms in the trial ground."
"Of course, not all groups will have a flag bracelet. Only two of the groups will randomly have leaders with such bracelets. The other three groups must do their best to obtain a flag bracelet for themselves."
"The only way to obtain a flag bracelet is naturally to take it by force from the hands of a group leader who has one. The two groups that have bracelets will be clearly identified, and the names of their leaders will be announced at the start of the trial."
"In this phase, we will only have two winners, and the other three groups will be eliminated."
"So you better do your best to get a flag bracelet and place it on a platform."
After Elric finished speaking, the members of Group Ten strangely felt that the content of this phase also felt familiar to them.
It was as if they had practiced something very close and similar to this just yesterday... Once again, their gazes turned toward Reinh, and surprise and shock filled their eyes.
And a repeated question appeared in their minds.
