Manaless Mage-Chapter 220: Elimination Round[1]

Yearrhh!!

Loud cheers of excitement echoed through the event hall, as the crowds of students chanted praises of their favourites.

Three days had passed already, and it was finally time for the well-anticipated final stage of the ranking event!

[It’s time for what we’ve all been waiting for! The final stage of the ranking competition!!]

The commentator’s excited voice reverberated all over the stage, causing the students to cheer even loudly in joy.

[The first round in the finals, will be an elimination match! All five students would confront each other on the stage, and the first person to be either knocked out or thrown out of the stage, would be eliminated from the competition!!]

[The other four will advance towards the semi finals, and the last two would face each other in the final match! From which we’ll finally get the winner, and the new rank one Elementalist of the academy!!]

The commentator quickly went over how the final rounds would he held, further increasing the excitement of the crowd.

Unlike the final qualifiers, there were no ’bye-cards’ or free tickets into the semi-finals.

Since there were an odd number of final qualifiers, the event was organised this way to eliminate one of the five students, allowing the rest to advance to the next round.

A giant, yellow hologram swiftly materialised above the hall, displaying the names of the five students participating in the final stage of the competition.

[Now, let’s call on the five participants of this event upon the stage!!]

Unlike the other rounds of the event, the qualifiers were no where to be found amidst the crowd.

This time, they would be called in from the back stage.

The reason they didn’t do this in the other stages, was because the number of participants were too much, and calling them out one by one would be take too much time.

After a few minutes, the commentator finally called out all the five qualifiers in the final stage, with the audience cheering loudly in excitement.

Harry released a light sigh, calmly observing the faces of the four other students standing in the same stage with him.

’I really have gotten popular in the academy huh...’ He mumbled inwardly, his like curling into a slight smile.

He could still remember how the audience were screaming in joy as he was climbing the stage, and to be honest, it didn’t feel too bad.

His gaze briefly locked with Nathan, who flashed a wide smirk at him.

Hung on his waist was a familiar sword, which was still nested within its sheath.

The combat mage had a wide smirk on his face, and it was clear how excited he was about the event.

Compared to him, the expressions on the faces of the other three were a lot more serious.

Susan had her usual indifferent expression, like this final competition didn’t mean anything to her.

As for Olivia, she had a nervous frown on her face, and her fingers kept trembling. fгeewebnovёl.com

This was the first time she made it into the final stage, and she felt a lot of things just by standing on the stage.

She was excited at the thought of fighting in the finals... and at the same time, she was afraid, scared that she woukd disgrace herself.

Her brows furrowed slightly, as she slowly turned her head to Harry.

’He’s only a stage two Elementalist... I know his physical abilities are insane, but I should be fine. As long as I play my card right.’ She thought, clenching her hands into a fist.

’No matter what, I’m getting into the semi-finals!!’

’Damn it... how could this be? How could I be standing on the same stage as him?!’ He thought, clenching his fists in anger as he stared at Harry.

Just being this close to him, especially seeing the nonchalant expression on his face, greatly infuriated him.

’I’ll show you... just wait! I’ll make you grovel in front of my power!’ He thought, his lips slowly curling into a sinister smirk.

Harry noticed his frown, and even from where he stood, he could feel the hate oozing from Trent.

’This feels awkward...’ Harry thought, waiting impatiently for the commentator to announce the start of the match.

[With the introductions completed, let the match begin!]

As if he could hear his thoughts, the commentator excitedly announced the start of the match.

For the first few seconds, the participants stood still on the stage, observing themselves to see who would move first.

However, Trent broke the ’decorum’, charging straight for Harry.

"Water Sphere!!!" He shouted, summoning a giant ball of water above him.

Slosh!!

With a mental command from him, the giant sphere of water shot towards Harry at terrifying speed.

’A chance!’ Olivia thought, as she watched the sphere fly towards Harry.

"Earth Hold." She muttered, rapidly channeling her elemental mana.

Since this round only required one person to be eliminated, she decided Harry should be the one to take the fall.

By trapping his feet to the ground, he would have no choice than to eat Trent’s spell, which would probably blast him off the stage!

However...

Harry suddenly leapt backwards, and two thick lumps popped out from the ground he previously stood.

His gaze swiftly turned back to the giant water sphere closing in on him, and his lips curled into a smug smirk.

"Wind Slash." He muttered, stretching his hand forward just as he landed back on the ground.

Swoosh!!!

A thin slash wave immediately materialised in front of him, heading straight for the incoming sphere.

Whoosh!!

Slosh!!

Before the eyes of eveyeone present, Harry’s ’spell’ effortlessly cleaved through the giant water ball, dividing it into two semi-circles.

The sliced parts of the water spell rapidly crumbled into droplets, while the wind slash ferociously flew towards Trent, its momentum not interrupted in the slightest.

’Fucker!!!’ Trent thought, gnashing his teeth in anger.

"Crescent Slash!" He shouted, swiftly sending out a powerful, crescent blade towards the incoming slash wave.

Twoosh!!

The two attacks collided mid air almost immediately, canceling each other out.

After a few seconds, the breeze finally cleared, revealing the face of Harry at the other side.

"You..." Trent muttered, his shoulder trembling in anger.
