Stage Winners
After his disdainful laugh, Tim went quiet and just kept staring at all the other students with an expression of provocation and mockery.
The mockery in Tim's behaviour and the way he was ignored made Alan Parker loose his control and extreme rage took over him. He decided to crush Tim and humiliate the Clove descendant.
He didn't waste any more time and a spear appeared in his hand.
He moved towards Tim, his body appearing like a blur to the ordinary commoners. He was mid way from Tim when he jumped forward in air and pointed his spear towards his target.
Alan employed a battle technique and huge amount of spiritual energy got compressed on the top of the spear.
The single spear in his hand transformed to form numerous spears made of pure mana surrounding Alan's hand.
On the other hand, Tim still stood with an expressionless face. He appeared to be in a daze as if he was unable to react to the extreme speed of Alan.
At the last moment when the spear was just to strike Tim in his chest, Alan had a smirk planted on his face thinking about how he would be defeating the arrogant kid in a single move.
But it was not the outcome. When the spear was inches away from his chest, Lightning suddenly cracked all around Tim's body. Tim as if he was taking a leisure stroll in the park raised his right hand and grabbed the handle of the spear just below its blade.
Tim was like a mountain pressing an ant. The spear was unable to move a single inch forward no matter how much force Alan put behind.
Alan was in a state of complete bewilderment and shock. No matter what he tried he was unable to either push the spear foward or get it free from Tim's grasp.
His mind suddenly screamed extreme danger. He felt extreme fear from the depth of his hearts and he was instinctively about to back down but he was too late for that.
Tim let of his grasp on the spear and stepped forward. He closed the distance between himself and Alan in mere moments. He raised his hands and the lightning around his fist intensified.
Alan was unable to dodge the upcoming fist and a powerful force struck his chest.
The punch was extremely brutal. Alan chest caved in and he flew out of the arena. Many of his ribs had shattered with few bones coming out from his back. Alan lay outside the arena with blood oozing out everywhere from his body.

The entire spectacle was a shock for the remaining 4 students. Harsh reality struck them making them realise that they could not go against this monster even in their dreams.
Witnessing the condition, Alan was in, instinctive fear took over their soul.
Moving as fast as they could, they jumped outside the arena signifying their surrender of the battle.
Though Tim had enough time to intercept and beat these 4 participants, he did not bother with these 'ants.'
He calmly stood on the stage, the lightning which was covering his body disappeared.
Though his face appeared to be expressionless, his eyes was full of arrogance and disdain.

Meanwhile the battle on all the stages had come to an end. Each stage now had one single remaining participant.
On the 1st stage was naturally Lucas. He unlike Alicia or Tim had not used flashy or powerful battle techniques. Because of this reason the ordinary people did not took much notice of him.
But the experienced and the old monsters had become extemely interested in him. The reason being from the hunt in the magical forest till the stage battle Lucas hadn't used a strand of spiritual energy.
He had only relied on his physical strength and his swordmanship. The movements of his sword had been extremely smooth.
The added factor that he was a commoner, he had caught the eye of many factions and organizations who were always on the edge willing to recruit talented individuals.
On the 2nd stage was Luna. As usual she had used her thunder element to badly injure her opponents. Her cute face didn't match at all with her ruthless actions.
On the 3rd stage was Leo. He had plummeted all his opponents in extremely ruthless manner to show off all his powers.
On the 6th stage was Kevin Wenton. He was someone who was at the 21st rank in the first part but had now defeated the 6th ranker.
Wenton though not a top tier elite family but were definitely in the upper tier comparable to Wilsons.
On the 7th stage was Iris Lopez. She was covered in injuries denoting that the battle she had won was a hard fought one.
She was one who had ranked 62nd in the first part but had somehow managed to defeat the 7th ranker. Interestingly, she was also a commoner.
On the 8th and 9th stage were heirs of two upper tier families. They were Ronan Lyonhart and Lomaro Takate.
On the 10th stage was Trevon Regan. He was also an ordinary commoner.
Vale again appeared in air above and said, "Now would begin the battle to determine the ranks of you 10. Everyone of you will get an hour of rest and then you will draw the lots. Whoever draws the same number will face each other."
