Chapter 184: Hazel Cloven

After Teacher Milena's lecture came to an end, she gazed at all the students and said, "In two weeks, the National military school tournament is going to start. Unlike previous years' victors, the winners of this tournament will only get 6 months to prepare for the international tournament that will be held between the Dhovrix race and humans.

The person who comes at the top in this national military school tournament will directly enter the quarter-final with other champions of previous years which includes First-year victor - Lily Havenglow, Second Year victor - Hazel Cloven, and third-year winner - Lex Magnus. They are all part of the Seven silver sword families so this competition is going to be tough."

Hearing the sudden announcement, a wave of whispers started among the students, one of the students from the middle row asked in confusion, "But Teacher, the quarter-final requires 8 participants and you only named four then who are the other four?"

Teacher Milena smiled, and she said, "There will be three spots for the victors. The top-ranked one will enter the quarter-final directly but the remaining winners will have to go through round robin between the previous years' first and second runner-ups.

So for the quarter-finals, the first Four will be the winner of the National military school tournament from each year and The other four spots will be chosen from the round-robin between the first and second runner-ups of the last four years.

In the end, the final quarter-finalist will be made up of Four Top Rank one of these four years and Four victors from the round robin."

Her explanation cleared the doubt of most students but there were still many questions that were rising in their heads.

"Where it will be held this year?" Talia asked as she was sitting in the first row, the girl knew more about the national military school tournament than other students.

"National Military school tournament will be held on a secret island which will be kept confidential so the seven silver sword family won't be able to help their kids.

Additionally, You will be fighting purple-stage and black-stage beasts that aren't real monsters but robots made using high-level AI technology.

The island will be a random place like how it is in the land of Ausra and you will be allowed to only bring a single bag of ten kilo grams weight with you so those in a team of five can carry more stuff to camp together in wild while those going in a team of two such as Rio will have a hard time bringing a lot of stuff with them."

Teacher Milena said, looking in the direction of Rio whose eyes flickered with surprise as he heard his name.

'I remember, I clearly forgot to submit my name as I was busy then who is it that put my name for this tournament? Can it be ...?'

The boy was stupified hearing about him from teacher Milena as he didn't expect someone would've given his name for the national military school tournament without even his permission. If he complained to the school then the person who submitted his name would be disqualified from the tournament and might get punished for doing this without his mutual consent.

Teacher Milena's voice continued, "There will be 200 teams participating in this tournament from different military schools so every team will be assigned a number. The rules will be explained on the day of the national military school tournament so don't forget to show up on the next of next Monday or you will be eliminated by default."

Students were nervous as they heard they only had two 13 days' time and they were allowed to only keep ten kilograms weight at the unknown island whose location was kept a secret.

"Teacher, will the international tournament between us and the dhovrix race also be held on such an island in a similar manner where we will fight robots beast?" A female student asked, she was sitting two seats behind Talia.

"Absolutely not, Unlike us Humans, The dhovrix race hasn't been able to find a way to enter the Land of asura and for some reason, they can't access that place even until today. So the international tournament will be held in a traditional manner where the top Finalist of the Human race will fight against the number one candidate of the Dhovrix race in a one VS one Battle. This also includes all the battles that will happen before the finals." Teacher Milena cleared the student's confusion.

"We already know who will be fighting in the finals from our side," Talia said, a smug expression flashing on her face.

"Who is it?"

"How does she know when even before the quarter-final and semi-finals?"

"I think it's her."

Students started commenting on her statement as they were guessing who it could be.

An enigmatic glint flickered in teacher Milena's eyes, and she said, "Although People say that Lily havenglow might be the finalist who will fight against the number one candidate of the Dhovrix race but that's not completely true. There is Hazel Cloven, who fought against her in the first-year tournament and they had a tie in the fight.

Nobody knows about the detail of the match but some students witness their fight on the island, saying they had to stop their battle with a mutual agreement as they were getting left behind by other students in the team ranking.

However, that year, Hazel Cloven came as first runner up and she participated the next year in the national military school tournament to come as the victor. So it's not confirmed who would be the finalist to fight against the number one candidate of the Dhovrix race."

Teacher Milena's explanation caused the class to be drowned in silence as she talked about two of the four goddesses of this generation who were known for their talent and beauty.
