Central University 14:
The following day,
Jeremy Night got out of bed early. He then started to get ready for the duel. He knew that there was a challenge duel today. He decided to reach there on ti.
anwhile,
The first-year students were getting excited for the challenge duel as well. It was going to be the first high-profile duel in the first year.
Because it's a duel challenge between the departnt representatives, they were going to see whether the STRIKER Departnt would gain fa or if the Attack Departnt representative would prevail.
The news was not only being circulated among the first-year students; the senior students had heard it as well. Many senior students were happy that the Attack Departnt was trying to regain their position.
The redevelopnt of the fallen departnt had alard everyone, especially the seniors. They feared that it would be a matter of a few years before the STRIKER Departnt beca the number one departnt across all years.
They were aware that the STRIKER Departnt had a low mber count compared to other departnts; yet their mbers were strong.
Right now, the STRIKER Departnt has only three mbers. The recent Beast Invasion had caused many people to give up on joining the STRIKER Departnt despite having the body type talent.
But they knew that more people would join from the next year onwards. Currently, the STRIKER Departnt is under the lilight.
The Attack Departnt's actions had challenged them. If the Attack Departnt succeeded in its plan, then the reputation of the STRIKER Departnt would plumt.
Then many of them would stop worrying about losing face.
As ti passed, the departnt instructors began to show interest as well. Compared to their students, they were aware of Jeremy Night's strength. They didn't think Roo Barrett could defeat Jeremy Night.
But they still had this curiosity. They wanted to see whether Roo Barrett could surprise everyone.
An hour later,
The students started coming to the Joint Training Facility. They were from the Attack Departnt. It would be a matter of ti before Roo Barrett ca and joined them.
It didn't take long before the other departnt students began coming in as well, especially the students from the Elental and Control Departnts.
May Lindsey refused to co. She was an S-Grader talent. If she went there to watch the duel between A-Graders, it wouldn't be good for her image.
So she decided to challenge the winner.
On the other hand, Victor Scott was having the sa thoughts as well. He didn't want to join others right away. He would fight against the winner in the end.
At the sa ti, the Attack Departnt instructors arrived along with other departnt instructors.
Surprisingly, the first-year departnt head, Old Man Derek, made an appearance as well. Upon seeing him, the departnt instructors were taken aback.
The next second, they greeted him respectfully.
Old Man Derek was smiling. This would be the first ti many first-year students saw him as well. So they imdiately learned about his identity.
The students were shocked to learn that he was the overall head of the first-year departnts. They hadn't seen him before, so they were noting down this information.
Shortly afterwards,
Roo Barrett made an appearance. The students exclaid. The Attack Departnt students were mostly excited.
Roo nodded at everyone before finding the departnt instructors and his own Attack Departnt instructor.
The Attack Departnt instructor introduced Roo Barrett to Derek Gibson.
Old Man Derek Gibson smiled and asked, "I heard that kid ntioned a condition. Did you kill the Tier-3 Beast individually?"
Hearing that, Roo Barrett was taken aback. He hadn't expected soone to raise this question. But he answered by nodding his head.
Derek Gibson chuckled. He could tell that the young man was not smart, but his statent would be clear during the duel. If Roo Barrett had truly slain the Tier-3 Beast, then his confidence could be explained.
Then he shifted his attention back to the crowd.
"Where are the STRIKER Departnt people?"
"Aren't they coming?"
One of the departnt instructors was impatient. He raised the question imdiately.
"He must be on his way!"
"Since the kid promised he would co," Derek Gibson said with a smile.
Hearing that, the person who opened his mouth felt terror for a second. He then closed his mouth. This scene was witnessed by several other departnt instructors, so they beca silent.
"Look who is coming!"
"It's Instructor Jacob and two other students."
Soone shouted from the crowd.
Derek Gibson and others looked in that direction.
Instructor Jacob was coming together with Betsy Lowe and Daniel Stone. He hadn't expected this many crowds to gather there.
Upon seeing Old Man Derek and the others, he went to see him.
"What happened to your student?" Derek asked.
"Jeremy!"
"He will co for sure," Jacob said.
anwhile,
Jeremy left his residence. He checked the ti, and seeing that he was not late, he smiled to himself. Then he started walking towards the Joint Training Facility.
A few minutes later,
He reached the place. His arrival caused a commotion. Jeremy was a little taken aback. He was surprised by the presence of so many students here.
"Jeremy, co here!" Jacob called out.
Hearing that, Jeremy walked towards him. He saw Instructor Jacob standing with Old Man Derek and imdiately greeted him.
"Kid, we have been waiting for you. Let's start the duel," Old Man Derek said.
"Okay," Jeremy replied.
He found Roo Barrett looking at him. Clearly, Roo was excited.
Jeremy hoped that people wouldn't bla him after he defeated him fair and square.
Then Old Man Derek entered the facility. Jeremy and the others followed him.
The Joint Training Facility was equipped with many facilities, including a sparring ring. But it was ant for practice, not for a real duel.
But they didn't have any other option right now.
"Can I use my lifeline beast?" Roo Barrett asked all of a sudden.
Hearing that, everyone stopped looking at the ring and turned towards Roo.
