Elder Fang's eyes widened in disbelief.

"Spatial…. Spells? Are you certain?"

Rira grinned smugly at the female Watchers that were glaring at her direction before answering Elder Fang.

"Yes, I am quite certain, Grand Elder. I saw the spatial cube that he made. I thought it was some low-grade spell since he's just a newcomer so I've been trying to dent it for a few moments yet not a single scratch was seen. It seems pretty st.u.r.dy and powerful to call the spell a simple fluke. Therefore, I concluded that he must be proficient with spatial spells."

Hearing Rira's words, Raghnall almost hit himself as he finally realized his stupidity.

He was supposed to be laying low. What the h.e.l.l happened that it actually turned out this way?!

His father will surely kill him when he finds out!

Raghnall was about to deny it when Elder Fang suddenly spoke up.

"I see. Since he is able to use spatial spells, he would need a handicap to make the battles fair. His abilities will be temporarily sealed and he can only use two spells in each match. No more and no less."

Rira nodded in understanding and when she saw Elder Fang's frown deepen as he stare at her, she realized that she was still holding on to Raghnall's arm. Now feeling intimidated by the Elder's deep frown, she immediately let go and stood in an appropriate distance away from Raghnall.

Then, lifting his frown, Elder Fang looked at Raghnall from above.

"Boy, I will personally be monitoring you in every match. Since you are the only newcomer a.s.signed in the Rose cla.s.s, which is the pinnacle of all cla.s.ses, you would surely not be able to change cla.s.ses unless you are demoted. Thus, the Watchers wouldn't necessarily have the need to monitor you. Hence, I would be observing you to see if you would obey the rules I set. Remember, only two spells. Do you understand, my boy?"

Raghnall bowed his head as he spoke with a tone full of respect.

"Yes, Grand Elder. This commoner understands and will obediently abide towards the rules you have set upon this commoner."

Elder Fang nodded in approval then he waved his hand to tell Rira and Raghnall to return back to their team. When they were settled, Elder Fang coughed lightly as he tried to continue what he was supposed to say before he was abruptly cut off.

"Ahem. To continue, the Watchers will be the ones choosing your opponents. They will take the diversity of cla.s.ses in each team into consideration. And such, the battles would be fair and at the same time challenging. We would be having two matches in each round. Each match has a time limit of 2 moments. If the teams are unable to provide a victor, it would result to a draw. Then, that would mean that both teams would remain in the same cla.s.s they originally were a.s.signed to."

"If I haven't emphasized it enough, only those teams who were able to win would get the chance to rank up. Being in a draw means that their cla.s.ses would be unchanged and if the team suffers a loss, there would be a chance that they would be demoted."

"And the number of students who was able to change their cla.s.ses last year were only two people out of four hundred students, so I wish all of you luck!"

"Now, let us begin the Cla.s.s Change Battles!"

Elder Fang slowly lowered himself to the ground. Then, he held out his hand and four Watchers knelt down in perfect unison. The teams together with them was confused on what to do at first. Having no other option, they decided to just imitate their Watcher's actions and knelt as well.

At the same time, the rest of the remaining Watchers ushered their teams towards the stone chairs around the battling area.

After everyone finally sat down, they noticed that the four Watchers began to form into two groups, one on the left and one on the right.

These two groups had two teams each who stood across each other. The atmosphere was tense around them as they sized up their opponents and tried to come up with battle plans together with their allies.

After the Watchers repeated the rules to their a.s.signed team, they stood beside Elder Fang while observing their a.s.signed team. They clasped their hands behind their backs as their eyes narrowed in concentration.

"Through your Watcher's decision, your teams will be the first to fight! Everyone get yourselves ready!"

Elder Fang eyed the four teams as he announced.

"Under the Supreme G.o.d's guidance, we shall commence the match to officially… start!"

As soon as Elder Fang ended, different kinds of spells were casted one after another.

Inna looked over enthusiastically as she tried to follow through with the spells they were using.

"Hrisht?"

"Kuros?"

"Nibra?"

Because of the distance, she can barely hear their full incantations despite being able to clearly see them. Truthfully, her mouth actually watered at the thought of various different spells in front of her, waiting for it to be 'tested' by her, to see if there were any Potter-worthy spells to use for her satisfaction. But it's just too bad that she's unable to follow what the words in the incantations are.

So, she simply sat broodingly while she watched the matches.

But then she realized, since it was her first time actually seeing such intense magic battles in real life, she might as well enjoy what she's seeing!

In a second, sparks flew…

In another, mist gathered…

Then suddenly, screams were heard…

And she saw some blood was splattered…
