My Angel system

Chapter 229 The Strongest Student



If Pearl's fight against Carlos was considered a really short fight then George's fight against Ryan had to be considered beyond short.

George had entered the ring filled with rage and had attacked his opponent with everything he had immediately after the countdown had ended, he didn't give him a single chance to fight back and it did take long before Ryan was on the floor with a large earth spear on his shoulder.

George had been stopped by Lieutenant Kate who knew he was about to take things too far.

"Do I need to remind you of the rule that says no attacking your opponents while they are down?"

George didn't say anything as he clenched his fists and turned away from Ryan.

Looking at General Freelyn's face you could see that he had enjoyed the show his son had put up as he had a smirk on his face.

"He didn't even give him a chance to fight back even if it was only once," Pearl said.

"He couldn't fight back because weak, not because he wasn't given the chance," Tammy said.

Pearl didn't reply to her as she turned to Presley expecting a response from him.

"I think she's right," Presley said.

"That was a really short fight that would have turned into something else." Lieutenant Kate said.

George walked back to the spot where he was standing with Brad and Brolin with a deep frown on his face.

Jacob had noticed his change of attitude since he entered the arena looking for Rodney and how he had fought his opponent with pure rage.

He wanted to go ask him what was really going on but that look on his face just wouldn't let him.

The next fight lasted longer as the two opponents were equally matched.

None of them had an elemental ability which was the reason why the fight had turned into close combat.

The most skilled person with his weapon was going to win the fight as it didn't look like any of the two third-year students had an ability that could be useful in combat.

After a lot of clanging, flips, and yells the winner had finally emerged and just like most of the students in the arena had predicted, the boy with the long sword had won.

He seemed more experienced with using his long sword compared to the other boy who had an axe.

The winner of the fight was carried up by the earth pillar as his opponent who was lying unconscious on the ground was carried away by the medical team.

"That was a really good fight considering there were no abilities involved." Lieutenant Kate said.

The selection process began again on the screen as the third-year students who hadn't fought yet had their eyes glued on the screen.

Tammy's eyes brightened as she saw her image stop in the first box before the image of a boy stopped in the other box.

"Next we have someone who won a bronze award in last year's tournament, Tammy Phillips going up against Billy Mando."

"Bronze award?" Luis said.

"Yeah," Ella said. "I wasn't a student here yet but I was at the tournament with my brother."

"Oh," Luis said. "Was the tournament that hard?"

Luis asked that question because he believed that someone who was considered the strongest student in the academy should have gotten a higher award than the bronze.

"She did her best but that student from Phoenix academy was too much for her to handle," Ella said.

"Which student?"

"I don't know who he is but he had a very powerful lighting ability," Ella said.

"Lightning," Luis muttered.

He got excited just thinking of what type of reward his system would give him for beating a person that strong.

Tammy was standing on the arena ground now and her opponent was standing opposite her.

The countdown began as her opponent slowly placed his hand on the ground.

Everyone in the academy except for a few first-year students knew who Tammy Phillips was, she didn't have an awesome elemental ability but her warrior-like attitude and proficient fighting skills were what made her quite different.

As soon as the countdown was over, Billy pulled out a large particle out of the ground with his earth ability.

He turned them into lots of earth blades and quickly sent all of them flying towards Tammy.

Tammy didn't waste time summoning her shield which she used to block the blades that were about to hit her.

Seeing that none of the blades coming directly at her was going to hit her decided to attack from both sides.

Tammy saw the blades coming at her from both sides and did a flip to prevent any of them from hitting her.

She stumped her right foot on the ground as the ground shook violently knocking Billy down and stopping his show of earth blades.

"I should have thought of a solution for that before attacking," Billy said as he got up from the floor.

He wasn't allowed to properly get up as a kick was sent down his chest and he was sent flying backward.

Billy didn't topple over and caught his balance with his right knee and hand on the ground.

He formed two large blades made out of earth and threw them toward Tammy.

The blonde-haired teenager didn't need her shield to block blades that big as she summoned her sword and slashed both blades into two before they could get to him.

She quickly rushed to Billy who got up as fast as he could and summoned his spear.

He placed his sword in his front as Tammy's sword was met with a clang sword before she pushed him back and with her leg kicked his spear off his hand.

There was a uniform loud gasp from the first-year students who were amazed by what Tammy had just done.

Usually, two people would struggle to push each other in a situation like that but she had done it so easily.

Tammy quickly followed up kicking Billy's spear out of his hand with a kick with her left leg.

She had done both kicks in the same motion which showed how great her reflexes were.

"Among all the close combats I've seen, this one is the best," Silvia said she was really beginning to admire Tammy's fighting style.

"That's some warrior you have there," Presley said.

"And here I was thinking she was going to take things easy," Pearl said.

After that powerful kick from Tammy, Billy still managed to retain his balance and only staggered back a little.

He tried to use his earth ability again but Tammy wasn't going to let that happen as she stomped her foot on the ground knocking Billy off balance.

Billy was struggling to keep his balance as Tammy summoned her shield and flung it towards him.

The shield was on target as it hit him on his head before dropping to his feet.

The hit from the shield was too much as Billy soon followed the shield to fall to the ground.

"What do you expect from last year's bronze winner?" Lieutenant Kate said. "A wonderful fighting performance, that's what."

"Phillips." General Freelyn muttered to himself as his mood turned sour.
