"Are you ready?" Headmistress Evelyn asked at both teams .
Alan and Dina nodded . "We are ready, headmistress . "
"Very well, both teams send your first fighter to the arena . "
A man stepped out from Alan's team . He was a handsome man around 22 years old, with black hair and black eyes .
His aura was very solid, at the sixth layer, and he emitted faint killing intent . He had the vibe of someone that had killed more than once .
From our team, Katherine stepped forward .
Her long green hair tied in a ponytail waved with the wind . She walked heroically towards the arena, without signs of nervousness for the following battle .
When the two combatants were in the arena, the students in the surroundings turned silent .
Most of the students were looking at the arena with shining eyes, mainly the men . They were looking at Katherine with gazes of admiration and longing .
Regardless of if they were nobles or commoners, all of them were looking at Katherine with the same expression .
Katherine was a very beautiful girl . Moreover, her identity and strength made her even more beautiful in the eyes of the students . I heard that many men had tried to court her without success .
Among them, my stupid second brother was included .
Apparently, my second brother was very forceful, even telling her that if she did not sleep with him, she would suffer the consequences .
Fortunately, Katherine was headmistress Evelyn's student . Nobody knows what happened, but a few days later, my brother stopped pestering her .
However, Katherine's dislike of princes had already been deeply rooted . Her dislike extended to Alan and me, Bryan's brothers . The only one she did not dislike was Dina . I heard that it was because Dina helped her when Bryan was pestering her .
Anyways, Katherine's admirers in the institute were countless . In fact, the reason she is mocked as the headmistress's dog is in part that she rejected all her admirers' advances . The other part is the jealously of the girls .
And from I can see, the man facing her now was one of her admirers .
"My name is Arami Doudelis, a sixth-layer warrior and a fifth-year student . Nice to meet you, Miss Katherine . "
Katherine ignored him and closed her eyes, waiting for the headmistress signal to start .
Arami smiled gently . "I can see that miss Katherine broke through the sixth layer recently . However, I broke through the sixth layer one year ago . My strength is much higher than yours . Miss Katherine, it's better that you give up . I don't want to injure your beautiful face . "
A scowl appeared in Katherine's face . She opened her eyes and looked at her enemy coldly . "Shut your trap . "
"It looks like miss Katherine is not convinced . Arami smiled . "Do you want to make a bet with me?"
Katherine furrowed her brows . "Oh? What do you want to bet?"
The man smiled . "If I win, you will go on a date with me . "
For the first time, a smile appeared on Katherine's face . "And what if you lose?"
"I don't know . Miss Katherine can ask for anything . What about it, if you win, I'll go in a date with you . "
Katherine smiled mockingly . "If I win, bark like a dog . "
"Hmm?"
"I need to repeat my words again?"
The man's expression turned frosty . "It looks like miss Katherine dislikes me . "
"Oh? You just realized it? Tell me, do you agree to the bet or are you a coward?"
The man's face darkened . "You don't have to taunt me . I agree . "
"It's more like that . " Katherine smiled coldly . "Teacher, are we doing it or not?"
Headmistress Evelyn, who was floating above the arena, shook her head . "Young people these days, sigh . . . Anyway, are you ready?"
Both Katherine and Arami nodded .
Evelyn's face turned serious . "You know the rules . Not killing or maiming the opponent . You win when your opponent surrenders, leaves the arena or is unable to continue fighting . Once you are declared the winner, you must stop attacking instantly . If any of you violates the rules, I'll personally punish you, understood!?"
""Understood!""
Evelyn nodded satisfied . Looking at both of them, she smiled .
"I wish you luck . Start!"
Instantly, Katherine and Amari moved .
The first movement showed the difference in their fighting styles . Arami pointed his glaive forward and charged towards Katherine while Katherine surrounded herself with winds and used them to increase the distance between them .
It was a textbook example of a fight between a mage and a warrior . The warrior tries to close the distance to finish the mage while the mage tries to keep the distance while he attacks from afar .
Unfortunately, Katherine is at a slight disadvantage this time .
Firstly, the space in the arena is limited, so she can't always retreat or she will lose the fight . Secondly, Amari is a fifth-year student, so his experience is higher than the second-year Katherine . Lastly, Amari's cultivation is higher than Katherine's . Although both of them are in the sixth layer, Amari's sixth-layer cultivation is much higher after one year solidifying it . In fact, he probably will be able to break through to the seventh layer in another year .
As such, the odds were against Katherine in this fight .
The warrior seemed to know it too because he pressed forward fiercely from the start . Amari's goal was to not give Katherine time to cast powerful spells and take advantage of his higher cultivation and experience to slowly corner her .
The glaive moved through the air like a snake aiming to insert its fangs on Katherine's neck . At the same time, Amari's movements were weird . It was as though he was staggering with each step he took, making his movements very unpredictable .
Both the glaive technique and the movement technique that Amari practiced were unpredictable . His style of battle seemed focused on using the strangeness of his attacks to confuse his opponent and take him by surprise .
But Katherine was not worse than him . With each step she took, she rode the wind and evaded the attacks . Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www . webnovel . com for visiting .
Her movements were slower than Amari, but she seemed to be always one step ahead, evading his attacks gracefully .
Furthermore, I realized something seeing her movements .
She was using the flow of the wind to aid her . In other words, every time Arami brandished his glaive, Katherine would use the wind his attack generated to avoid the attack easily .
I was surprised by such a high-level display . Her movement technique was spectacular . Arami had not realized it, but his attacks were helping Katherine . As such, no matter how strange his attacks are, they are unable to touch Katherine .
Arami eventually realized that something was wrong and he suddenly stopped his attacks .
"What technique is that?" He asked .
Katherine opened her mouth indifferently .
"I call it, [Wind Waltz] . "
Arami nodded in admiration . "Truly a great technique . You are worthy of being the headmistress's disciple . "
Then, he shook his glaive and filled it with mana .
"Allow me to show you my technique then . It's the technique passed down in my family for generations . "
His body turned illusory, and his spear vibrated as an excited child .
