The next day, almost every single student and teacher came to the school. They all had one thing in common… Witnessing the power Kai Carter had that allowed him to become Lieutenant General and kill an S Rank Magical Beast.

In the auditorium, close to four thousand people were waiting for the match to start.

"I wonder what kind of fight will we witness today?"

"Right. If the media is allowed to be here, I think every single of them will enter this place."

"Either way, many bring their camera, so I'm sure it will go all over the internet pretty soon."

"I agree. This is a huge match after all."

The auditorium was filled to the brim. Even some teachers and students needed to stand. Suddenly, the commentator, who turned out to be the same commentator that hosted Kai's previous battle, entered the arena with Shirotsuka Sanae.

"Test, test, test. Anyone can hear me, right?" He asked while testing his mic. "Yep. I think we can start. Teacher Shirotsuka, thank you for accompanying me for this match."

"I'm their instructor, so I will tell you what I know." Shirotsuka Sanae nodded with a serious expression.

"Alright." He grabbed his mic, stood up and shouted with excitement. "Ladies and Gentlemen. Today, we will witness a legendary battle between Lion Group and four Top Groups, Golden, Tempest, Grace, and Slayer groups.

"I will be your commentator for today's match. Let me introduce myself. I am Diego from the Studio Group. Teacher Shirotsuka, I wonder what do you think about this match?"

"I am not sure myself, but knowing Kai Carter's character, I think he has something he wants to show to all of the people here. I will try to discern what he wants to say and tell it to you guys. I hope I won't turn it into a lecture." Sanae chuckled.

"Oh! Such a relaxed attitude from the king."

"No. Not attitude; it's his duty. No matter his rank, I believe this fight has two purposes."

"Two purposes. May we know about these two purposes?"

"The first is to settle everything with the top groups."

"Indeed. My blood is boiling to see what kind of match they will have today. What's about the second purpose?"

"It's for all the people here. He is a third-grade student, so he must think he has a duty to teach something to his juniors. After all, isn't this the original purpose of this fight? They want to show the experience of the seniors in this school, so the new students can learn?"

"I see. So, that's how it is." Diego became even more excited as he shouted. "Do you hear it guys? I know that you want to cheer someone in this battle, but don't forget to take a note, okay?"

"Without further ado, let's call the fighters out." Diego then pressed the button on the table as the sign.

Kai and his group, who had been standing by this whole time, noticed it and nodded at each other, entering the training capsule.

"Oh, oh! This is it. I was once a commentator in his battle as well, so my happiness went through the roof when they told me that I could do it again." He then zoomed the camera to Kai and his group. "As you all can see, they are the remaining members of Lion Group: Kai Carter, Michelle Graham, Kudo Ayaka, and Evan Young. I wonder who will fight who, considering that they are required to kill all the enemy groups by themselves."

"I have insider information, so I think it's fine to tell you guys. Kai Carter will be fighting the Golden Group. Ayaka has the similarity to Slayer Group, so she will handle them. Meanwhile, Michelle will handle the Tempest Group. Evan deals with the last one." Sanae explained with an uninterested expression after laughing so hard the moment she heard Evan's mission.

"Anyway, I think we should start the battle right now. What do you think, Teacher Shirotsuka?"

"Yeah. That's fine."

"Alright! Without further ado, let's start this battle in 3…2…1…" He pressed another button on his table to inform the fighters about the battle.

Kai and the others turned serious as Kai commanded. "Just like our plan. I will take the left and Michelle will be the right. Ayaka and Evan will handle their opponents in the middle."

"Understood."

The group nodded as they started moving to their position.

Kai's battlefield turned out to be a forest. He knew what his opponents wanted to do and adjusted his plan. "I see. This is good enough."

Five people arrived before him as they stared at Kai intensely as if they were ready to murder him.

Kai smiled and looked at this group that consisted of three men and two women. "So, I think we can settle it as soon as possible. What do you think?"

"You're dead." Samuel gritted his teeth and shouted. "Start."

A blue-haired female suddenly leaped to Kai's left and created a blue magic circle, shooting ice spikes toward him.

Kai didn't have a change of expression as he avoided the attack effortlessly.

Suddenly, a muscular guy appeared above him and slammed his body against him, trying to pin him down.

But Kai stomped the ground and grasped the man's head, stopping his momentum.

"What? He is this strong?" The big man was bewildered as he never expected that Kai could stop his momentum this easily. This meant that behind his small build, Kai actually held a monstrous strength.

Before he landed on the ground, Theo spun his body and used that momentum to launch the big guy toward the female.

"Watch out." The man couldn't avoid the collision, but luckily, the female managed to react and jumped as high as he could.

Kai took this chance by leaping toward the girl with his sword. But a glaive user and a sword user arrived before him and swung their weapons to stop his advance.

Kai didn't pour his strength at this time and allowed them to blow him away.

However, that gave Samuel the chance to strike Kai as he summoned five flame pillars that looped around him, striking from the front and behind simultaneously.

"…" Kai already heard their movement and summoned a pair of shields to block this two-direction magic.

Boom.

Boom.

A series of explosions echoed on the battlefield, but this was the same as a smokescreen for both Kai's eyes and ears, allowing the two to move.

It turned out that their real intention was to hit Kai's head because of his position and shields.

"Now!" Shouted the sword user while swinging his sword toward Kai's head.

The glaive user followed suit and struck Kai.

Unfortunately, they had yet to succeed because Kai still stopped their attack by using both his swords. He spun his body and struck their weapons for the second time, pushing them back.

As soon as he landed, he jumped toward the sword user and slashed him.

But the muscular got into his way as he rammed him with his body.

Kai narrowed his eyes and got blown away, crashing into the tree. However, the muscular guy screamed in pain while pressing his arm. Not long after, they found a trace of blood as it flowed out of his wound.

"What?! Did he actually hit him while avoiding everything?" Samuel widened his eyes in surprise as he clapped his hand, summoning three magic circles at once.

Kai frowned when he found that William could do something like this. The person who could utilize more than one magic circle at a time should have a big reservoir that could store so much magic.

"I see. No wonder this guy can become the way he is now." Kai smiled while looking at the circles on top of him and the two sides. Instead of waiting, he created two Oscillation Shields simultaneously, stopping the fire that emerged from the magic circles.

Meanwhile, Kai used his sword to deflect the magic and destroyed the magic circle. "You are good."

"What are you saying? You are a monster." Samuel clicked his tongue, knowing that Kai had yet to get serious in this fight.

"I'm not." Kai shrugged.

"Hmph!" He snorted. "You are going down today."

"I'm looking forward to it." Kai smiled before noticing that the first female seemed to be busy, summoning walls after walls in their surroundings. Although he could destroy her here, he decided to wait a bit more, so the Golden Group could have a better show next. Hopefully, it would be interesting enough to motivate the students.

That glance was read by Samuel, thinking that Kai wanted to kill her first. He commanded. "Stop him!"

Although they couldn't understand the reason, they nodded their heads and charged at Kai.

"Tch." Kai grabbed the muscular guy's neck and threw it toward the ice magician, trying to break her concentration. However, the sword user interfered and caught that guy even though he needed to be pushed a few meters back.

Meanwhile, Kai leaped toward the glaive girl and punched her on the stomach while saying, "Sorry, I don't have a grudge, but this is war. I can't show mercy."

The glaive girl clenched her teeth and resigned to her fate, only to find that Samuel appeared behind her and caught her.

When Kai was about to do a follow-up, he raised his head, finding a huge fireball on top of his head.

"Now!"

Theo never expected they would use something this big in this closed space, but when he believed that this guy must have a secret, the curiosity settled down.

"Oscillation Shield." He activated his shield on top of his head and stopped that blast from hitting him.

Boom.

The smoke surrounded him again, but they seemed to have a plan already as they didn't move.

Once he raised his vision, he saw a huge plate made of ice emerged from a blue magic circle, falling on top of the "arena" that the ice girl made, becoming its lid to lock Kai inside.

Bam.

With this, Kai Carter had been trapped.

"This is the arena we have prepared to slain you, Kai Carter. Taste its might," shouted Samuel as he was excited to see whether he could take down Kai or not.
