Chapter 240 - 119: Elimination Round, First Round!_1
The preliminary selection of the demon hunting team was divided into six competition areas, naturally corresponding to the six Great Sacred Temples, and the knockout round proceeds at a pace of one round per day.
This not only tests the combat capability of a single competition, but also requires the competitor to maintain an adequate condition for the next match even after defeating their opponent. After all, the competitions are consecutive. Each person must consecutively defeat four opponents to qualify and enter the top ten.
Both Long Dangdang and Long Kongkong stayed to compete in the Knight’s Temple side.
"Big brother, do you know who your opponent is?" Now, there weren’t just students from the Spirit Furnace Academy in the resting area of the Knights Temple. Students also arrived from the graduation class of the Main Temple Academy.
Everyone sat together in the resting area, and Long Kongkong really felt some pressure. The graduates of the Main College were basically over twenty years old. Compared to the Spirit Furnace Academy, they were at least three years older. Both Long Dangdang and Long Kongkong, being younger, naturally felt the age gap even more. They had just turned fifteen, while most of the others were twenty-one or twenty-two years old. There was a significant difference just based on their physical development.
The knights from the Temple Academy, one by one, were tall and robust. At the age of twenty, they were at their peak physical condition. They were stronger than those from the Spirit Furnace Academy, and as a result, the students from the Spirit Furnace Academy seemed much more juvenile.
At this moment, the young knights from the Temple Academy looking at these juveniles from the Spirit Furnace Academy showed curiosity. The Spirit Furnace Academy has a legendary reputation among professionists. Originally, most of them entered the Main Temple Academy to study because they failed to gain admission to the Spirit Furnace Academy, and so felt some resentment in their hearts.
In the face of the Spirit Furnace Academy’s youngsters, who were at least three grades younger and even more, they all held a grudge. They had even discussed internally that they would strive to secure all ten spots, not allowing any of these lower-grade students from the Spirit Furnace Academy to enter the demon hunting team.
At this time, seeing these clearly more juvenile opponents up close, the confidence of the young knights from the Temple Academy naturally increased.
