First Round

Saul was quite happy right now. He had just made a new friend and Alex was quite the weird one. He was not really the social type but he was easy to talk too.

Looking around the room, almost everyone was here. It would not take long for the competition to begin.

"All competitor, please head for the arena," a voice said from a com in the room. Everyone looked excited to start the competition. Having no idea where the arena was, he just followed Alex.

"How are you feeling about the competition?" Saul asked Alex a little nervously himself.

"I think I have a pretty good chance of getting into the top 5," Alex replied confidently. Saul was also quite confident in himself, he had the system and it would be quite hard to find a match for him.

It did not take long for them to reach the arena. The moment they got there somebody welcomed them.

"Okay, hello everybody. Today we will start by dividing you all by the number on the card you received from the registration desk. You will be divided into groups of 20, according to your card."

Everyone immediately got into there groups. Looking at his number, 86, he got into the group with the 80s to 100 people. Alex had the number 16 on his card. So he was part of the first group.

Group 1-20, you will be known as group A. Group 20-40, you will be known as group B. And so on, please be ready when we call your group. You will go into the arena if your group is called, if not you will wait in the waiting room.

Everyone remembering the orders went back into the waiting room. It took around 20 minutes before they started calling groups down.

"𝘎𝘳𝘰𝘢𝘱 A, 𝘱𝘭𝘦𝘒𝘴𝘦 𝘩𝘦𝘒π˜₯ π˜ͺ𝘯𝘡𝘰 𝘡𝘩𝘦 𝘒𝘳𝘦𝘯𝘒."

"𝘎𝘳𝘰𝘢𝘱 A, 𝘱𝘭𝘦𝘒𝘴𝘦 𝘩𝘦𝘒π˜₯ π˜ͺ𝘯𝘡𝘰 𝘡𝘩𝘦 𝘒𝘳𝘦𝘯𝘒."

"𝘎𝘳𝘰𝘢𝘱 A, 𝘱𝘭𝘦𝘒𝘴𝘦 𝘩𝘦𝘒π˜₯ π˜ͺ𝘯𝘡𝘰 𝘡𝘩𝘦 𝘒𝘳𝘦𝘯𝘒."

Alex along with his group started to head for the arena. As they left a TV appeared on the wall, and started displaying the arena.

It did not take long for group A to reach the arena. The judge appeared and after making sure everything was in order, started the match.

"Davina Ingram and Gordon Warner. Please come onto the stage."

Excitedly Saul looked at the screen ready to witness his first battle.

Davina standing tall and gangly with pale skin, had an intelligent feel about her.

She has tired, large dark blue eyes, a hooked nose, and a square jaw. Her, lank, pale red hair styled with a military cut.

She was tacky clothes and had a particularly noticeable feature is her acne. She had a noticeable scar on her left hand which she always tries to hide from view.

Gordon, on the other hand, was standing tall and muscular with olive skin. He had a respectful feel about him.

He has cold, deep-set green eyes, a straight nose, and a square jaw. He was also naturally bald, which was quite unusual in this day and age.

He was wearing skin tight training clothes. And his particularly noticeable features his crossed eyes, and indifferent look.

Both looking at the referee, waiting for his call to start the fight.

Fight!!!!!

Gordon immediately made the first move throwing a punch at Davina. She easily dodged the move.

She responded by kicking at his exposed belly, wanting to stun him. Gordon was still indifferent as always, as he used his arm to block the kick easily.

"Good moves," said Gordon snidely. Davina taking a light breath said, "You're not to bad yourself."

Both of the contestants deciding to get serious started a fiercer barrage of attacks. Taking a deep breath, Davina got into a fighting stance. Feeling the dangerous vibe in the air, Gordon also got into a fighting stance.

Davina shot toward Gordon, her fists aiming for his chin. She almost connected but Gordon managed to react just in time. Almost immediately, Davina shot another punch this time toward the bridge of his nose.

This time she connected, Gordon stunned by the attack could not block Davina's incoming attack. He was pushed back when Davina's kick hit his stomach.

At that moment Saul was sure that Gordon would be losing the match.

Gordon spat out some blood from his mouth. Getting back up, he got into a weird fighting stance. This time he was the one to make the first move.

He aimed for Davina's abdomen. Saul when we saw Gordon's move started shaking his head. He knew that Davina would be able to easily block that move.

He was shocked when he saw Gordon's stance change. He saw that Gordon's attack aimed at her abdomen. Suddenly shifted, aiming this time for her chin.

Davina was shocked, it was too late for her to change her defensive stance. All she could do was watch Gordon's fist connect with her chin. She was knocked out the moment Gordon's fist connected with her chin.

"The winner of the first round is Gordon Warner." shouted the referee.

Gordon wiped off the blood on his fist. He still looked as indifferent as always, nodding at the referee. Gordon headed for the rest of group A.

Saul was quite shocked, he did not know how Gordon changed his attack so suddenly. With a solemn look, he knew that he really should not underestimate people.

"Alex Barron and Damian Alba. Please come into the arena."

"Alex Barron and Damian Alba. Please come into the arena."

Saul was quite excited to see Alex fight. He knew that Alex was actually really strong.

The moment Alex and Damian got into the arena. Saul was quite shocked at the difference between them.

Alex was a pale-skinned dude and had an unforgettable feel about him. Standing tall, he had wide shoulders, long arms, and large hands, a thin torso with muscle tone, a narrow waist and narrow hips, toned legs, and wide feet.

His brown hair is very short and straight, and is buzz cut.

He has an oval face with a softly shaped jaw with no facial hair. His eyebrows are angular, and his round, knowing eyes are blue. He had an aquiline nose and thin lips.

He wearing loose training clothes.

His particularly noticeable features were his accent which Saul found composed. He also had very alert eyes.

Damian, on the other hand, was a brown-skinned man with an attractive feel about him.

Standing almost 7 feet, he was huge.

He was incredibly buff with a large chest and arms. He had light blue hair that was worn in a spiky style.

He has a wide face, a square jaw with a 5 o'clock shadow and defined cheekbones. His eyebrows are fine, and his big, dull eyes are azure. He a stubby nose and large lips.

His particularly noticeable features are his white, sparkly teeth, his misleading appearance; he looks older than he really is and his malocclusion ("bucktooth").

Damian was huge compared to the toned Alex. Saul was not sure if Alex would be able to handle Damian.

Fight!!!!!!

Alex immediately shot a fist at Damian. He reached him in an instant, Damian was not able to react and was downed immediately.

Saul with his eyes open was dumbfounded, he was not sure if he himself would be able to react to Alex's move.

"Winner of the second round, Alex Barron."

Alex with a relaxed smile headed back to the waiting room."

Saul was nevertheless shocked, he never knew that Alex would be so powerful.

'You really can't underestimate the people around here, he thought.
