My Dragon System

Chapter 87:Number one

Gary, Slyvia, Monk, Ian and Dan were currently standing together on the top level of the arena. It was the highest viewing point but there were no seats and only contestants were allowed to be there. Their group and many other third-year students were currently watching the match below.

The group had just witnessed Ray's brutal beating of the ten students. Slyvia could see the anger in Ray's eyes and was starting to get worried.

"I don't understand. Could none of those students use Ki?" Dan asked.

"They were using Ki" Slyvia replied. "It's just that Ray's Ki was simply far too overpowering that they weren't able to do anything."

Slyvia was currently using Ki to activate the cells in her eyes. This gave her a second type of vision where she could see the Ki flow of other students. It was similar to Ray's dragon eyes but a much weaker version of it. All she could tell was Ray's Ki was incredibly strong and currently running wild.

"He must have been hiding his strength from us."

"I hope the students aren't too badly hurt," Ian said.

"They deserve it, everyone single one of them," Gary replied.

Everyone was surprised to see Gary say something. He hadn't spoken to them or anyone much since the death of his sister.

"Did they really think they could do something against him just because it was ten against one?" Gary laughed. "You guys might not remember but I remember that big nose well. They were the ones who started the riot when Monk and I fought and it looks like Ray remembers them well."

"I just hope he doesn't go too far," Monk said remembering what happened to Sebastian.

Gary didn't say much more, but in truth, he didn't care if all of them died. It was probably people like this that went up against his sister. They tried to use the school's rules as a way to justify their actions.

A group of third years standing by the edge were also watching the arena.

"Is that the guy you were talking about Harry?" Jack asked.

"Yes. When he was only a third-year student and he had no idea of Ki, his strike almost hit me. I knew he would grow into a monster but I didn't expect this."

Jack started to smile. His heartbeat started to pound harder and faster. Jack wanted to jump over the railings and fight Ray now but he knew the time for the two of them to meet would come.

Jack was currently ranked the number one student in the whole of Avrion academy. He had an athletic body chiselled as if he was the son of the god of war and the looks to go with it. His short black hair complimented his masculine eyebrows and square jawline. People would think the divine being had given him the blessings of beauty. But the ones that knew Jack well knew it was more like a blessing of a warrior.

Jack only cared for one thing: fighting. He loved to fight and wanted to just fight strong opponents. He knew the line of good and bad though. This was drilled into him by his parents. To satisfy his hunger for fighting, he decided to join Avrion on the front line against the shadow plague, the strongest foe known to man.

"Cherry is there anyone that interests you?" Harry asked.

Cherry was standing right by Jack. She was a muscular girl who looked like she had been raised by wild animals. She had purple wavy hair and the body of an amazon warrior.

"Why ask if you already know the answer?"

Harry just smiled back at Cherry.

"The five people passing this exam have already been decided."

Harry and the others already knew what Cherry was talking about. Watching the fight, it was easy to see that there were currently five students who were outperforming the rest in the arena. The first one was Ray. Many students were now staying clear of him after his performance.

The next two where Sloth and Badger. They were using a pair of weapons called the Katar. They were similar to daggers only there were no hilts. You held a long bar that then extended into a triangle blade. The two twins were quick with their hands and worked well together.

They would often use a display or acrobats to avoid oncoming opponents and attack others.

The next one that had caught the third-year students' eyes was Kyle. Kyle was currently using a variation of the chain and weight as his weapon. He was skilfully using it to keep a good distance away from his opponents. The long-range of the weapon made it difficult for anyone to get close.

Lastly was Martha. She had the great sense of timing of when to strike and when to not, using the bodies of others to avoid getting hit. Every time she would take a shot at someone, she would move so others didn't know of her position.

As long as these five didn't decide to go against each other, everyone was sure that they would go through to the next round.

While Gary was busy looking at the fight from above, he heard a female voice call out his name.

"Gary over here." Jasmine waved. Then she signalled for Gary to come over and join her.

"Who's the pretty girl?" Dan asked.

"I've never seen her before." Slyvia replied, "Monk what about you?"

"Who me? No, never. I don't even know who you're talking about!"

Monk was terrible at keeping secrets and judging by his reactions everyone knew Monk was hiding something.

As Gary came over, Jasmine and he moved to a quiet place where no one was around. She then whispered in his ear,

"Do you remember that underground cave we went to, behind the red door?"

Gary was suddenly interested in what she had to say.

"Well I started having dreams about it. I was getting obsessed then I found out something…I found another way in. Another entrance apart from the red door."

Gary was suddenly very interested.
