Star University:
The news started to spread across the campus. The Inner Hall Warriors had witnessed the outco. But those who were outside the university didn’t know the news at first.
But when everyone started spreading the news, they too learned the result, and they were shocked. They didn’t expect Zack to lose the duel.
What’s more? They learned that Zack Lockwood didn’t use his inheritance force either. He lost the duel without using it.
They were in shock again. Because Zack had won the previous two duels without using the inheritance force. If he had used it today, the outco could have been different.
But they couldn’t say anything. The Blazing Fire Faction Warrior Issac had won the duel. They learned that it would take so ti for Zack to recover.
So the next duel wouldn’t be happening anyti soon.

Blazing Fire Faction:
The whole faction was experiencing a mood of celebration. The Outer Hall Warriors were especially celebrating the most.
They couldn’t defeat Zack when he was a General Rank Warrior. But their seniors had defeated him now.
So they were celebrating as if they themselves had won the duel.
Issac was surrounded by the mbers. They were cheering him out loud. Issac too was imrsed in the joy and celebration.
He forgot about other things.
anwhile,
Faction Leader Elr was in the eting hall. All the main elders and official elders were here. Everyone was present because of Issac’s win.
Everyone was carrying smiles on their faces. Because the duel was one-sided. Issac didn’t give any opportunity to the opponent. So he gained a dominant win in the end.
Whereas Zack was taken to the dic room later. They too knew it would take at least a week for Zack to recover.
Issac’s fire elent had hard Zack. It wouldn’t be easy to recover from such injuries. But here, no one was discussing why Zack didn’t use his inheritance force.
A few people had it in their minds. But no one wanted to discuss it now. Because it would ruin their mood.
They too knew if Zack had used his inheritance force, the result could have been different.
Right now, only one person didn’t have a smile on his face. The person was none other than Faction Leader Elr.
He too was thinking about Zack. Unlike others, he thought of himself as a mber of Star University first. Zack’s potential was the future Red Mark Warrior.
It was a kind of deterrent to other universities. If other forces learned about this, then they would definitely celebrate.
He knew that the Thunderfla Faction was hiding sothing. He thought they knew why Zack was not using his inheritance force.
He had asked Faction Leader Clifford about this. But Clifford ignored him and left. Elr knew only the Dean could give him an answer.
But he didn’t want to disturb him because of this doubt. He decided to find out about this sooner or later.
Suddenly, soone from outside entered the eting hall. The person was an Inner Hall Elder. He was one of the healers in the dic building.
Upon seeing him, everyone was taken aback.
"Faction Leader, I want to report sothing to you," the elder said. He was an old man who appeared to be in his sixties.
Faction Leader Elr recovered his thoughts and asked, "What is it?"
The main elders and official elders were looking at the old man as well.
The old man said, "Four of your Black Mark Warriors were admitted to the dic room. They are undergoing imdiate treatnt."
Hearing that, the faces of everyone changed drastically.
Elr asked, "How did it happen?"
"One of them said it was Zack Lockwood who beat them up," the old man replied.
Gasp!
A loud exclamation occurred.
The elders were looking at each other’s faces. They couldn’t believe what they were hearing right now.
Faction Leader Elr was even more shocked. He was speechless. Then he collected his thoughts. He knew that old man was an Inner Hall Elder.
He wouldn’t be joking about this. So he must be serious about the matter.
"Elder, what are you saying? Is this true?" Elr asked.
The old man was not offended. He knew it was hard to believe. Because everyone saw the result of the duel. He too was there as well.
Everyone saw Zack Lockwood being taken to the dic room. To think he did this showed that he was not seriously injured.
He still defeated four Black Mark Warriors. One of them even used Fla Inheritance Force to attack.
The old man then collected his thoughts and started to explain clearly.
A few minutes later,
The old man left the place. He had co here to report. He had done it. Now he was going back to his place.
Faction Leader Elr and the main elders were dumbfounded. Elr was clear that sothing was wrong with Zack Lockwood and the Thunderfla Faction.
Now the old man’s words made it clear that Zack Lockwood had lost the duel purposely. So there was no joy from Issac’s win on his face.
He was just worried about Star University as a whole.
He then dismissed the eting. After doing that, he went to his room. The main elders began to leave.
They too knew that Zack Lockwood didn’t use his inheritance force. They had been celebrating earlier despite knowing the fact.
Now the old man’s words had poured cold water on them. His statent was clear. Zack Lockwood was doing fine. He had let Issac win the duel.
They had started believing it as well. So they had stopped celebrating Issac.

Virtual Training Lab:
Old man Daniel, staff, Ronnie Seth, and a few other warriors were left speechless. The bloodso scene had left a bad taste in their mouths.
They didn’t expect Zack to lose the duel in this manner.
"What’s going on with him?" Ronnie Seth asked.
Like others, he was consud with why Zack didn’t use his inheritance force at all.

anwhile,
The news about today’s outco had reached the ears of other organisations. They were in shock at first. Later, they all felt relieved.
The image of Zack Lockwood’s dominance in their minds had broken. They understood that Zack Lockwood was like any other warrior.
He had his montum. Now he had suffered defeat. It wouldn’t be long before he beca a warrior like the others.
