"Harley has defeated Jeff! So the points are 0-1. Good job Harley!"
This statement had made everyone shocked because they couldn't see through the light that what had happened.
Suddenly, Maxwell, the last teenager from their group, shocked, asked Alex,"How he won, the last attack from Jeff was clear he would win?"
Alex explained that the last attack that Jeff delivered was indeed deadly, but since it was his first time using it, the mana consumption and the backlash had exhausted him, so he needs some rest.
Alex then said,"Since he is now exhausted and needs some rest, we can move to the another match which is between Jack and William!
Then at least we can cope up with the time needed for rest. And since Maxwell is not fighting William and rather it's Jack, the fight will be interesting and will take a long time.
Am I right, William!" Then William and Jack both nodded, clearly meaning that what Alex has told us absolutely right.
Then Harley went inside the training room saying his aunt told him to call at that particular time for some private matters so he would again come when Jeff would recover and will be ready for next match.
He told Alex to send him the monthly report of Harley and James to his aunt so she could assessment their performances.
As soon as he spoke those words, James' eyes were tensed, clearly implying that his monthly performance was not at all good and everyone chuckled for a moment before settling down.
And as everyone expected, Jack and William went to the opposite side of the ground and took on their stances, Jack using a wooden sword and William using his long, Japanese Katana.
Seeing his blade, everyone was making assumptions that William would have a better chances of winning as Katanas provide better mobility and skill usage opportunity than any other blades.
And the match formally began with the usual motivating words of Alex.
As soon as the beginning of the match got announced, William Flash-stepped in front of Jack, striking diagonally towards his left side of his body along with making his legs ready to kick him if he blocked his strike which he thought would be appropriate since his strike had carried moderate levelled of strength.
But to his surprise, Jack had first blocked it and before William could even move, Jack appeared behind him with a upward strike from his left hand side to his right hand side.
But William had other plans too.
He suddenly jumped higher than the reach of his wooden sword.
While he was suspended in the air, he sheathed his Katana and with a swift move, his whole body was facing downwards, specifically the figure of Jack.
With a push from his legs, he thrusted himself towards him and unsheathed his Katana in the meantime and gave a devastating Horizontal Slash as he was landing furiously that created a spider-web like cracks on the impact area, blowing dust and some smaller pebbles away.
But to his surprise, Jack was rushing towards him, as if he was flying just few inches above the ground, towards William and suddenly, a dim, pale green light was emitting from Jack's sword.
Tempest Fury!!
The figure of the approaching Jack suddenly Blurred, appearing just in front of William, trying to slam his wooden sword on his left side of William's neck region but suddenly, a hand came on the way of the incoming wooden sword, blocking it.
"I didn't know that you would be so easy to block! Where is that Jack I remembered who used to annoy me a lot during matches and countering my defense, breaking one after the other?
I'm truly disappoin–" Said William, whose face was clearly covered with pity and disappointment.
But before he could speak further, the pressure from the wooden sword began to abnormally increase, giving a huge pain on William's left hand.
Unable to bear the pain, William's body spinned, directly above Jack as his right leg slammed on his stomach vertically upwards.
Jack spat out some of his saliva as his body got rose a lot, even above the William who was still suspended in the air by the momentum of the impact of the leg.
He then landed, lowered his waist, his right leg on the same spot but his left leg brushing behind him and stopping as soon as it touched a small pebble which was behind him.
His upper body curving towards his front and his sword making a slope in such a way that his both hands which were resting on the sword being lowered than the extreme tip of the other end of the sword and finally, he leapt towards the falling figure of Jack.
Rumbling Tiger's Jaw!!
