My Space-Time System

Chapter 207: Team knockout exercise (3).

'Just a random thought. What will happen if I use Ebony and Ivory against the golden barrier, will it break?' Blake asked the system.

[Although Ebony and Ivory are at the peak epic tier you haven't even neared its current power cap. So, it should be safe.] The system replied.

The current main skill of the legendary sword was cognitive empathy and apart from the active skill of Ivory that made him immune to Beyoni's illusions, Blake hadn't even used the skills of Ebony for once.

"Begin!" The referee announced the start of the match.

"I really wonder what gives them the confidence." Luciano shook his head as he saw the opponent team rushing towards them.

Owen Ulrik's team wasn't making the same mistake as Beyoni's. Instead of defending, they chose to gain the advantage by being on the offensive, or so they thought.

Owen began preparing earth spells to support his team, while Vlad activated lightning reinforcement and dashed towards Blake's team along with Ansgar and the rest of the team.

"Alright guys, let's show them their place." Blake said as Ebony and Ivory appeared before splitting into dual blades.

Blake went to meet Vlad head-on but before he could blink, Blake was already behind him with Ebony swinging towards his neck.

Earth eruption!

At that moment, multiple earth spikes erupted from below aiming at Blake's lower region, forcing him to withdraw his attack and retreat.

'With him here, things will be slightly difficult.' Blake thought as he looked at Owen who still had his arrogant smile on his face.

Being from the Ulrik family, Owen was the best Geomancer in the school. The only reason Haldor was above him was that his barbaric fighting style and skills in combining fire and earth elements were excellent.

Without effort, Blake dodged the incoming wind blades and fire arrows, but when Vlad's lightning bolt came at him, he accepted it with open arms.

Literally!

"Is he crazy?!"

Everyone was waiting to see Blake sent flying, but what happened shocked every one of them.

Zzzzg! Zzzzg!

When the lightning was a meter away from Blake, He used the passive skill of an electrode and his insane mana control to redirect it to Owen along with his own lightning bolt.

BOOM!

3 layers of earth wall erupted from below and blocked it just in time, but that was when Blake appeared right in front and stab through them.

Ding!

Owen's golden barrier appeared just in time, protecting him from the lightning-infused Ebony.

"How is that possible?!"

"What? When?" Owen who had been teleported out of the battlefield was confused about how he had been eliminated.

"Don't try to block his attacks, only dodge them." Vlad announced to his teammates, but that was when Luciano who was engulfed in golden flames appeared right in front of Calvin.

'Shit! He is too fast!' Before Calvin could do anything, Luciano grabbed him by his throat before lifting him and squeezing his throat.

A golden hue from Calvin's badge covered his body before teleporting him out of the battle.

Luciano wasn't done yet, he stretched his hands towards Ansgar and a sea of golden flames plunged at him.

Ansgar conjured 2 layers of earth domes, but Luciano controlled the fire to converge at one spot using his will.

BOOM!

The force of the fire wave crashed into the earth domes, breaking through it and attempting to roast Ansgar alive, but the golden barrier appeared before teleporting him out.

Everything was happening so fast, Vlad was unable to help Ansgar in any way and when he turned to his last surviving teammate, he saw him on the floor protected by the golden barrier.

"What the fuck?!" Vlad looked up but Blake was nowhere to be found.

"Looking for me?"

Hearing the familiar but annoying voice, Vlad turned back to see Blake, but that was when he heard Luciano's voice.

"They are almost done so let's wrap things up." Luciano said.

Going against the rank 1 and 2 in such a close range, even a retard will know it was all over.

"I surren…" Vlad wanted to surrender, but that was when Blake's fist knocked him out.

"Winner Team 7!" The referee announced.

"Was that necessary?" Luciano lightly chuckled.

"Na it was just fun." Blake laughed.

"Why the look on your faces?" Blake asked when he saw mixed feelings in their expressions.

'How is this still a team exercise?' Brian thought.

'They should have made this two form their own team.' Castiel said.

"Erm… nothing." Tessie struggled to say.

"You don't have to worry, the competition officially starts in the next match." Luciano said to the three as he began walking to the resting area.

Most of the students had the same thoughts as Castiel and Brian. Blake alone was a beast on the battlefield and Luciano was an unsurmountable wall, forming a deadly combo.

The normal thing was meant to be the rank 1 and rank 2 being in different teams and contesting for the 1st position, but here the reverse was the case.

They couldn't do anything but complain because Blake and Luciano were in no way breaking the rules.

After the 3rd round was over, both teams were given some time before the final round began.

"We won't have the advantage of the darkness, water, and plant element because of Damon, Esmeralda, and Layla respectively." Blake said to the team when they huddled up.

"We have the advantage when it comes to lightning, fire, and earth. Meaning we would automatically dominate the offense, so we should be mindful of our defense."

…

The students who were analyzing both teams agreed with the first part but completely disagreed with the second.

They argued that team 1 dominated the water element because of Layla, Esmeralda, and Camilla. Plant because of Esmeralda, Darkness because of Damon.

As for the earth element, it was Haldor because even though it wasn't his main element you couldn't compare the rank 4 to someone in the '30s.
