The next morning, a list of people came out who were going to participate in the next round of the competition.
Alex was of course one of them. Other than him, the five giants of the outer court were also on the list of these ten disciples. As for the four others, they were Ranked Sixth, Rank Seventh, Rank Eighth, and Rank Ninth in the Outer Court.
If one were to observe clearly, they'll be surprised to see that all ten ranked disciples of the outer court were promoted to participate in the second round of the competition.
After defeating the tenth-ranked disciple, it was Alex who took this place.
Finally, it was the day of the second round of the competition to start. No one knows what happened after they returned from the Triangular-shaped Tower. Only Alex had somewhat of an idea of what happened.
After Anya informed them, the Leader must have led the team of elders to eradicate the group of demonic cultivators. Even he had no idea what happened inside the secret realm.
Everyone gathered at the huge platform of the Outer Court where the second round of the competition was being held. Very soon, the competition started.
An elder walked on the stage with a total of ten tokens in his hand. He told everyone that each token has a number. The number could be anything from between 1 to 5. And there were only two tokens with the same number.
Then he told all ten disciples to choose a token. The two disciples who have chosen the token with the same number will fight against each other.
It could be said to be a coincidence that Alex had the first battle to fight.
Very soon, Alex and his opponent went up to the stage and stood opposite each other.
"The competition begins!" The judge by the side announced the start of the battle.
Alex's opponent was a disciple called Zack Angeal. Zack looked at Alex and said coldly: "Alex, although I don't know what method you used to become famous in the outer court as a new disciple, on this stage, you'll need strength to fight. You are not my match. Admit defeat and retreat or you will be defeated by me!"
Many of the disciples had never seen Alex in action before, so they had their doubts about Alex's strength. There were even a small number of people who didn't believe that Alex had such powerful strength to defeat the tenth-ranked disciple and fight to draw to Neon, the Ninth Ranked disciple.
Zack was one of them.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAs soon as Zack finished speaking, he attacked.
"Mountain Shattering Fist!"
Zack threw out a punch. The force of his punch was strong, and it was like a force that could break the mountain. It was a powerful punch.
Everyone's eyes lit up when they saw this. Just by looking at Zack's punch, everyone knew that he really was worthy of being listed among the ten strongest disciples of the Outer Court.
After that, everyone turned to look at Alex. They wanted to see how Alex would deal with Zack.
Alex sneered. He was too lazy to talk nonsense.
It just so happened that he would let these people, who are underestimating him, understand what was reality and what strength was. He could also earn some energy points at the same time.
After that, Alex also struck out with his palm, bringing with it waves of energy. He controlled his strength greatly. His power was not any weaker than Zack's punch.
Then, under everyone's watchful eyes, their attacks collided against each other.
At this moment, Zack's expression changed drastically.
He felt as if thousands of waves were surging toward him. The power was so strong that it seemed as if it could shake the sky. He was extremely shocked.
In that instant, Zack knew that everything that was circulating inside the Floating Cloud Academy about Alex was most likely to be true.
Zack's heart could not help but surge with traces of regret at this moment. Unfortunately, it was already too late. In an instant, after a crisp sound, Zack's fist fell down powerlessly.
Alex's palm continued forward and landed on Zack's chest. The sound of bones cracking was heard. Zack's chest instantly caved in.
After that, with a loud explosive sound, Zack was sent flying as if he had been hit by a cannonball and crashed into the ground.
At this moment, Zack's body was covered in injuries and blood was flowing out from his body. He was almost a man covered in blood. His breathing was weak, and he was seriously injured.
When the crowd saw this scene, the crowd went silent for a moment, and then a commotion broke out.
"Zack is ranked Seventh in the Outer Court, but he was defeated by Alex just like that. Am I seeing things?"
"Furthermore, he is seriously injured. With such injuries, I estimate that he will be lying in bed for a few months."
"Who asked him to be so arrogant? He has pissed Senior Alex off."
"It seems like Senior Alex is really strong. I estimate that only the five giants of our Outer Court can fight Senior Alex, right?"
"It's very likely."
All the disciples were shocked.
They never thought that Zack, who was obviously ranked Seventh, would be defeated by Alex so easily.
Alex's strength really shocked all the disciples. No one in Outer Court thought that Alex was this powerful. His talent was really proved to be very strong at this moment.
At the same time, the doubts they had about Alex's strength were mostly dispelled.
After all, Alex had already revealed his strength that was at least comparable to the Seventh Ranked of Outer Court. It was also possible for him to achieve this.
On the high platform, Andre's eyes fell on Alex. His eyes narrowed. No one knew what he was thinking.
On the other hand, the First Elder nodded with a satisfied look in his eyes.
"Not bad." First Elder couldn't help but praise him with a smile on his face. Alex's talent was one of the best amongst the true disciples. If he grew up, his future would be limitless. This would bring great benefits to the entire Floating Cloud Academy.
As the Academy's Elder, he was naturally delighted.
On the arena.

[Congratulations to Originator for obtaining 5,700 Energy Points from McCall.]
[Congratulations to Originator...]
Alex heard the constant sound of prompts ringing in his ears. He looked at the rapidly increasing energy points in the attribute panel in the void in front of him, and his eyes revealed a satisfied expression.
He had obtained several tens of thousands of energy points, and this made him very satisfied.
In the upcoming competition, he had to perform well. It'll be best for him to win first place.
With that, not only would he be able to obtain a huge amount of energy points, but he would also be exposed to the entire Floating Cloud Academy and continue to earn the Energy Points.
Alex calculated in his heart. After that, he looked at the judge by the side and said: "Deacon, it's time for you to announce the result, right?"
The judge also had a startled expression. He was shocked by the result of this match. He also did not expect that the battle would end so quickly. He only came back to his senses when Alex's warning was heard.
He glanced at Alex with a complicated expression. He knew that another top genius was going to rise in the Academy. After that, he announced in a clear voice: "Alex is the winner of this match!"
As soon as his words left his mouth, a huge commotion broke out in the crowd. No one dared to look down on Alex just because he was the new disciple.
As for the new disciples, they regarded Alex as their idol. They no longer had any thoughts of comparing themselves with Alex. Because Alex had already surpassed them by far. They could only look at him from afar. Perhaps after a period of time, they would not even have the qualifications to look at him anymore.
They naturally wouldn't have any thoughts of competing with him. They could only worship him.
The challenge continued. The matches between the top ten were very exciting. These battles couldn't be missed, and they were carried out one by one.
Two disciples of the Outer Court walked out from the ten people. They came to the arena and started fighting.
Both of them were Innate Stage Level 6 warriors, so the difference in strength between them wasn't huge.
In just a short period of time, it was hard to determine the winner of this battle.
After a dozen minutes, due to the excessive consumption of spirit energy, the outcome of the battle was finally decided.
After that, the next pair of disciples came on the stage to fight.
