My Dragon System

Chapter 109 - Powerhouse
A group of doctors had quickly come to the scene to take Monk away. Martha insisted that she had to go with them. At first, they were insistent that she couldn't come but she refused to move from the arena until they let her. In the end, Wilfred allowed Martha to head off to the medical bay with Monk.

Wilfred quickly jumped up from the arena to the two announcers that were just off to the side slightly above the crowd. They were currently trying their best to calm down the crowd with small talk. Once Wilfred had informed them of the situation, they made an announcement.

"Everyone, we would like to let you know that unfortunately one of the contestants in the tournament has been injured but fear not, the injury was not fatal and the student will be back in top condition in just a few hours. What this means though, is regarding the next match between Monk and Jasmine, Jasmine will be declared the automatic winner."

There had been incidents of this happening in tournaments of the past before. That's why Avrion academy had put in so many safety measures this year such as having a top medical team on standby and having two master knights in the ring.

If Wilfred and Sir K hadn't been able to hit the arrow with their Sword Ki, then perhaps Monk wouldn't have been so lucky.

After hearing that the wound wasn't so serious, the crowd quietened down and was ready for the last and final match of the day.

The last match was between Ian and Geo.

"Be safe man," Dan said to Ian as he walked up to the stage.

Currently, only Dan, Kyle, Sloth, Badger and Ray were standing at the side. Gary, Slyvia, Monk and now Martha had all been taken to the medical bay after their fights.

"Go on big guy!" Badger and Sloth shouted.

Badger and Sloth had become friendly with Ian after the dragon knight training sessions. Ian was kind to everyone and unlike them, he hardly got bullied due to his large size. Ian would often step in to help them when he would see people treating the two differently around the academy.

"Ray come on, let's say something. We have to show our support too." Kyle said.

"You can do it, you're the strongest hunk I know!" Kyle shouted.

Ian's ears started to burn as he was getting slightly embarrassed by his team's praises.

Kyle then gave a nudge to Ray as he noticed Ray still hadn't said anything.

Finally, Ray managed to mumble out a few words.

"You can do it," Ray said in a quiet soft voice. It was so quiet that Kyle was the only one that heard him.

The two contestants had finally entered the stage. Ian was holding his two one-handed axes. With the money from Ray and his own savings, Ian was able to upgrade them into intermediate weapons. But the rest of Ian's equipment was lacking.

The weapons he was holding were the only pieces of beast gear he currently had. On the other side of the arena was Geo, who was just as big as Ian. Geo wielded a heavy two-handed Axe. It was hard to tell what level it was, but it looked better than Ian's. Not only that, Geo also had beast gear covering most of his body.

"Do you think Ian can win?" Kyle asked Ray.

After seeing all the Gear that geo was wearing, Kyle was starting to feel nervous for Ian. Ian had always relied on his strength in matches but Geo looked just as big and strong. If two people were just as strong as each other, then Kyle couldn't help but think the equipment would give Geo the edge.

"Just watch the fight. I think you will be in for a nice surprise."

"The final match of the day will start in 3…2…1"

The war horn sounded for the last time and the two contestants came rushing in at each other. Geo gave a big sideway swing as soon as he saw Ian get within striking distance.

Ian jumped back avoiding the strike. As he saw the axe go pass, he had one thought.

"Slow."

Ian quickly went in and slashed against Geo's chest with his two axes. The power was strong causing Geo to stumble but the armour was strong as well only managing to chip off a few pieces here and there.

Geo lifted his Axe and slammed it into the ground. Again, Ian moved to the side and allowed the axe to hit the ground. As the axe hit the floor, it formed a large crater. The strike was truly powerful but useless if it could never hit its target.

Ian went in again, this time striking even harder at Geo's chest. As Geo regained balance, Ian quickly moved away.

"Do all you want but you will never be able to even make a dent on this chest piece."

As Geo spoke those words, he noticed his chest piece was starting to crumble and fall off.

"But that's impossible…this is an intermediate beast chest piece. It shouldn't fall apart this easily." Geo said in shock.

Geo had always fought against his opponents with his dominating power. Although he was slow with his attacks and heavy armour, he trusted it to be strong enough to withstand most attacks.

The fight continued on with Ian dominating the match. Geo was doing his best to avoid getting hit in the chest by using every piece of armour he had on his body. One by one each piece was beginning to crumble apart from Ian's strong attacks.

"What the hell is happening?" Kyle shouted.

"His opponent made the mistake of thinking that his weapon equals power. Ian has strength just like Geo but the thing is Ian also has speed on his side. Speed plus strength equals power and no weapon can make up for that." Ray replied.

"You know the only time you speak a lot is when you're giving a lecture," Kyle said.

Ray's face for the first time seemed to blush a little as he was slightly embarrassed by Monk's words.

Geo quickly moved back as far away from Ian as possible.

"Fine, you leave me no choice," he shouted.

Geo then took out a small glass tube that was filled with purple liquid and began to drink it.

"No that can't be!" Ray said as he looked from the side lines.

Then Ray's fears were confirmed when Geo's aura went form a yellow, to purple colour.
