Chapter 20: The Quarterfinals

The next day, as Becky's concert ended, the finals of the Academy Qualifying Tournament began, and the finals were attended by more people than the qualifiers. Unlike the qualifiers, where only the top officials of the academy participated, not only Adolf came to the finals, but many high-ranking officials of the empire also came to watch, but the dean, who had always been mysterious, still did not appear.

At the beginning of the finals, with the battle table on the big screen, the opponent of the first battle of the final of Ashur was a wind ability, named Ji Ke, different from the general wind ability, although Ji Ke only had the sixth ladder, but in terms of ability development, he did not pay attention to attack, but the development of the wind system's flight ability was very good, and the ability person could not fly freely in the sky before reaching the eighth ladder, only those who reached the eighth ladder to break the military level could get rid of the shackles of the sky and relax freely in the sky, but the fact is that there may be many people with the ability of the seventh ladder on the mainland, but there are very few who can reach the eighth ladder, the entire continent combined is probably less than 50 people, and in the Landis continent with a population of more than 500 million, there is no one in the real million people who can reach it. Therefore, the ability to fly in the sky has an advantage.

As soon as the game began, Jike used his wind ability to drag himself into the sky and occupy a favorable position.

"Ashur, I watched your game before, but I didn't expect you to have such a strong strength in the obscurity of the academy. Although you are strong, you can't help it if I fly into the sky," Jike smiled as he looked at Ashur in the air.

"Well, this Jik is not bad, smart, calm, knows how to use his strengths, and is more stable than last year, but who is the opponent opposite him? The senior executive of the academy, who was sitting at the top of the academy audience outside the arena and had not watched the preliminaries, wondered

"It's a stinky boy named Asher. Vice Dean Adolf said lightly.

"Oh, the vice dean knows this student?" the senior of the academy wondered.

"Well, with the little girls like Fomeo and Luna, they formed a strange guild called "Fairy Tale Heart", and they either skipped class or slept in class all day. It's just that I didn't expect this bastard boy to have the strength to enter the quarterfinals. Adolf looked at Asher in surprise as he looked at the audience

"Oh, is this the kid who formed the guild with those little girls?" the senior wondered.

"That's right, it's this stinky boy. Adolf nodded and said lightly.

"Well, to be recognized by those proud little girls, this little guy named Ashur is really not an ordinary person, but when he meets Jike, a kid who can fly in the sky, he is helpless. Several college executives looked at the room and discussed.

Here, Ashur couldn't help but be a little stunned when he saw Jike flying into the sky as soon as he got on the field, although he could fly directly into the sky to knock Jike down, but there was no necessary situation, Ashur didn't want to expose his strength.

"That's a good judgment, but do you think you'll be fine if you take to the sky?" said Ashur as he looked at Jike in the air and smiled.

"What's the matter, you still have a way to knock me out of the sky," Jike smiled as he stood in the air and looked at Asher.

"Just try it," Asher said lightly as he looked at Jike in the air. Saying that, Ashur also learned from Jike, and suddenly a flame rolled up from his feet, and he flew towards Jike in the air.

"What!" Seeing Ashur also fly into the sky, Jike couldn't help but be surprised, this stunt was a stunt that he had practiced for many months, but he didn't expect Ashur to imitate the past just by looking at it, and the flames could still be used like this!

Seeing that Ashur was getting closer and closer to him, Jike hurriedly waved his hand and threw several wind blades to block Ashur.

Seeing this, Ashur raised his palm, and a wall of fire suddenly lit up in front of him, blocking all the wind blades from the wall, and he also waved his hands and threw fireballs towards Jike.

Jik watched the fireball blast towards him, and hurriedly dodged left and right in the sky, while Asher chased after him, and the two of them chased and fled in the sky. The scene was very exciting.

The audience below watched such a fierce air battle, and suddenly burst into applause.

"It's worthy of the finals, the first game is so exciting, this Yaxiu is so strong, Jike can't take him when he flies into the sky. A spectator exclaimed, watching such a wonderful game.

"Yes, I didn't expect this Ashur to be so strong, no wonder he was favored by the goddess Chloe. One of the students looked at the game and exclaimed.

With the wonderful chase between the two in the sky, the audience below suddenly quarreled. And the top management of the academy above the stands couldn't help but be shocked.

"This Ya Xiu really surprised me, he actually has such a strong strength, I'm afraid it is difficult to have an opponent in the seventh echelon, and the use of his ability is also very good, I'm afraid that I won't perform better if I go up, what do you think, Vice Dean Adolf." A senior executive of the academy was surprised.

Looking at Ashur, who was chasing Jikta in the sky, Adolf couldn't help but lose his pupils in thought.

I'm afraid this Ashur is not just as simple as the seventh ladder, although he is trying to cover it up, but this Ashur's skillful movements in the sky are by no means something that a person who has not reached the eighth ladder can fly freely in the sky can do, looking at his appearance is only about 20 years old, is there really someone who can reach the eighth ladder that countless people dream of at this age.

Just as Adolf was distracted, Jik was forced down from the sky by Asher.

The two returned to the competition table, and just as Ashur was about to make further moves, Jike on the other side simply admitted defeat. Asher was stunned.

"Thank you for your mercy, you had several chances to knock me down in the air, but you didn't do that, thank you, and I lost even the best air combat, and naturally I am not your opponent on the test bench. I lost my heart and took it orally. Jike looked at Asher, who was stunned, and explained.

"Well, you are very good, both in terms of vision, strength and judgment far surpass your peers, and I look forward to facing you next time. Seeing that the other party was so polite, Ashur said politely himself.

The audience in the stands couldn't help but be a little disappointed when they saw Jike actually admit defeat, but at the same time, they were also shocked that Ashur's strength actually forced Jike to be ashamed.

At this time, in another VIP room in the stands, Prince Daniel also had a solemn face. He instructed lightly: "Go and find out what the origin of this Yashu is, and if you can win him over." ”

"Yes, my subordinates know. A middle-aged man behind Daniel nodded. Then he turned around and ordered a few followers behind him to investigate.

After a while, the attendant came back and told the middle-aged man about Asher's condition.

After listening to this, the middle-aged man told Daniel about Asher's condition.

"Oh, aren't you a nobleman of the Empire, and you're very close to Germain's daughter?" Daniel said lightly as he played with the wine glass in his hand without replying.

"Yes, Your Highness, but although this Asher is not a nobleman of the Empire, he is very close to the daughter of Duke Germain, and it is hard to guarantee that he is not Duke Germain's person. The middle-aged man guessed.

"This Ashur is not simple, I'm afraid it's not something that Germain can woo, go and see if you can win it over, if you can't be friends, don't be an enemy for the time being. Daniel looked at the middle-aged man and commanded lightly.

"Yes, Your Highness......" The middle-aged man stopped talking.

"Just say anything. Daniel looked at the middle-aged man who wanted to speak and said lightly.

"This Asher seems to have a close relationship with the girl you have your crush on, and the spies have reported seeing this Asher playing in the streets with the girl you like, and having lived in the girl's house with the daughter of the Duke of Germain. The middle-aged man looked at Daniel and explained carefully.

"yes, I see. Daniel said lightly, playing with the wine glass in his hand. There was no fluctuation in his tone.

"Well, Your Highness, that young man snatched the girl you fancied, do you still want to woo him?" the middle-aged man asked cautiously, looking at Daniel.

"So what? It's just a woman, and it's nothing compared to my hegemony. Daniel looked at the middle-aged man and said lightly.

"It's a subordinate who is stupid, it's true that compared to your hegemony, a woman is not worth mentioning at all, but does that young man really have the value of letting you win over? Although he is a powerhouse of the seventh echelon, he has no power, and it is not of great help to you. The middle-aged man looked at Daniel and wondered

"The powerhouse of the Seventh Tier? hehe, you're wrong about Lagos. Daniel looked at the middle-aged man and said lightly.

"Is it possible for this young man to reach the eighth rank at such an age? Largs looked at Daniel in disbelief.

"Although the boy deliberately hid his strength in the competition, a person from the seventh tier could not be as familiar with air combat as he was, and as I expected, he did enter the eighth tier. Daniel looked into the distance and said lightly.

"What! he entered the eighth ladder at such a young age, and he is only 20 years old, even you entered the eighth ladder after the age of 20," Largs was shocked as he looked at Asher's figure in the distance.

"Now you know why I want you to woo him. Daniel looked at Rags and said lightly.

"His Highness's eyes are like torches, and his subordinates are far behind. Largs looked at Daniel humbly.
