Chapter 25: Ignorant

After winning the first match, Z continued to win the ensuing fights. He saw plenty of new powers. Some of them were using 'Fist Style', others were using mana for 'Fire Element' and other varieties. Upon watching others fight, Z couldn't help but praise his ignorance. 'I know nothing indeed'

Finally it was time for the second round.

"Okay, let us move to the second round. Number 1 vs number 27! Come up!" commanded Jester.

This time, Z is fighting against a lady. Her features are not yet developed as she only looks 13 or 14. Her hair is auburn and her eyes are blue which gives a bit of contrast in her look.

"And..... Start!"

"Fire Element: Release: Fireball!" as flames condensed in front of the lady's hand that was aimed at Z.

Z quickly moved the world's energy to his feet and dodged the attack. Then, another fireball greeted him. He continuously dodged the barrange of flame coming his way.

'Damn, I can't get close' He scolded in his thoughts. 'I think I need to burst it then'

"World Energy: Release: Aura!"

He then concentrated his energy to his feet and bursted to his enemy. As he knows that he is slow enough he prepared for an incoming attack

"World Energy: Manifest: Shield!"

"What!?" a shout of surprise was heard in the arena.

"That kid, he just stacked manifest over aura. The precision of this kid is astounding." said Jester

"Why is that great, sir?"" asked the man who lost to Z

"Bloodline transformation requires you to endure the transformation and hold on to it so it would not revert back to your original state. It is kind of related to it. To use aura you need to exert large amounts of world energy to produce it, much less sustain it. Using manifest takes another great deal of world energy to be released from your body, and that is just the amount. If you manifest an object, it would consume the existing world energy that makes up the aura. Hence it would be logical for your aura to break or part of it to break since the energy in that part would be consumed by the manifestation. But that kid did not break any part of his aura at all, he even maintained the concentration on his leg. This takes an enormous amount of precision to accomplish!" explained Jester.

While Jester was giving his speech, the fight continued. After Z got close to his opponent, the latter was put in a disadvantage since she specializes in range attacks why Z specializes in melee. After a little resistance from the lady, he finally won the fight.

"Number 1 wins!"
