The crowd was silent. In the battle of two houses, one was bound to win. However, even then, no one was waving their flags.
All eyes were on the figure standing at the center of the battle ring, Ble Skull. He had made a name for himself by eliminating the other two opponents instantly.
Unlike Red Skull, he didn't give his opponents even a chance to surrender. He made them loose by fainting.
His fighting style was a mystery; he sometimes used weapons. Sometimes he attacked his body, while other times he attacked with chakrams and chains.
The range of his attacks, maneuverability, speed, accuracy, and power were all on the next level. He could fight without even moving like a mage, but unlike mages, close range was not his weakness.
"What a surprise, or should I say as expected of Blue Skull? With this win, Leo House qualifies for the final. They will be against Naga," announced the commentator.
That brought the crowd back, and the members of Leo started cheering for their house. The yellow flags started waving.
Garuda and Matsya House members were disappointed; they were sure their house would win, but two guys came out of nowhere and changed the course of the battle.
"It's Red Skull vs. Blue Skull. This will be interesting," said the commentator, which made others question which one of them was stronger.
ραndαsnοvεl.cοm The participants appeared on the stage. The final was three vs. three.
The first two rounds ended up tying the score. Both captains had secured one victory. However, in this round, one participant could fight only one round.
"Audience, the moment you all were waiting for is here—a final battle between two Dark Horses. At one side is a red skull from Naga House, while facing him is a blue skull from Leo House."
"Are you guys ready for the battle of masks?" He asked.
"Yeahhh!" Audience cheered.
"Leo, Leo.." On one side, members of Leo House were waving their yellow flags and chanting the name of their house.
On the other side, members of Naga House were doing the same.
The eyes of everyone were focused on the two figures on the ring, curious about their next actions.
"Start," announced the refree.
Both approached each other, and step by step, a storm appeared between them. The wind started flowing in all directions.
They stopped one meter away from each other. Their palms appeared before their belly, facing the ceeling.
"Same rules," said the Blue Skull.
"I will win for sure," said the Red Skull guy.
A black smoke appeared around their right hands as they moved it at a very fast speed.
"3"
"2"
"1"
"Show." They both stopped. The red-masked guy's hand became visible. It was resting above his palm, making a gun symbol.
However, there was a change: the two fingers making the barrel were separated, creating a 'V' shape. It was another symbol.
A confident grin appeared on Vinay's face, but it changed when his eyes fell on the right hand of Rishi.
"Gotch you," said Rishi. His hand could be seen clenched, making a hammer fist sign.
Vinay held his head and said, "Not again."
"Hah haaa, you can't beat me in this game." Laughed Rishi.
Vinay left the ring without explaining anything. Onlookers looked at them and didn't know what to say.
"Was that it?" asked one of the guys from Naga House.
The "We Won" members of Leo House enjoyed the moment.
"Did we really lose like that?" asked the other Naga House guy; he was not able to believe his house would lose like that.
"These two guys are such bastards; they only bully others. Now I know why they are called Twin Trolls," said someone from Garuda House.
Everyone was mad at them, but what could they do? These two guys were just too strong for them.
"Ha haaa, I have not seen someone like them for some time," laughed Sanya.
Vish tried not to show her his face, thinking she would blame him; however, he was lucky she was in a good mood.
He looked at the red-masked figure, and his thoughts were: He was grateful for him for helping the house get second place; however, he was also angry at him for not even trying to win the first prize.
He sighs, 'Chill, everything can't go according to plan every time. It's good that we got off to a good start.'
His eyes then shifted to the red-haired girl, captain of Garuda House, and a smirk appeared on his face.
There was no chance Garuda House would be able to defeat Makar House; this would result in them getting the last place.
"Should I teach that masked bastard a lesson? How dare he lose like that at the final moment?" Said the vice-captain beside him.
"Leave it," said Vish. "We should not blame him; he had equal chances to win."
"Now it will be the final battle of the day to decide the third position. Garuda House will face Makar House."
The battle took place. It was way more brutal than any other battle, as both houses tried their best. However, at last, Makar was able to defeat Garuda.
"Useless! All of them" said the red-haired girl as she stomped her foot in displeasure. She turned and left the arena.
A yellow-haired boy followed behind her. "It's not a big deal; we will win the next competition for sure. They were just lucky."
"You will not understand, idiot; these were easy points," she said as she continued moving toward the exit.
"Start preaching for the next competition; I don't want our house to perform badly in that," she added.
"Alright, don't worry. The next one will be won by us, for sure. In it, all students below the fourth year can participate. We also have our team ready with the roles of each one decided," said the boy.
"Good job! Ask them to increase their practice sessions. We can't afford to lose that one." She said.
"Why do you look so worried? Is it because of those masked guys?" asked the boy.
"Yeah, I am worried those bastards may again become a hurdle in our path," she said.
"No need to worry about them; it's a team competition. They will not be able to repeat this against senior students," comforted the boy.
"They might not even be qualified for the team of their house; I will make sure we crush the heads of those snake bastards," he added.
"That will be for the best; did you see how Vish was giving me a mocking look? Let him meet me in any competition; I will make him regret it." said the house captain.
