Chapter 151
"I am glad to announce the beginning of this training camp . This is a special occasion as prince Sebe have come personally to see it . "
After the city chief said those words, everyone applauded . Disregarding their true feelings, no one wanted to be disrespectful to the royal family without a good reason .
"This year a lot of talents have come to participate and to celebrate it we have upgraded the protective tokens . Now, after activating the barrier in a few seconds, you will be teleported back here . This way there won't be problems with anyone needing to exit the training camp after losing . "
No one wanted to afford the loss of any geniuses, so they had put effort into improving those tokens to increase their chances to survive . In the end, they were unable to make them activate automatically, but the teleport function was better than nothing ."Remember, the objective isn't killing others, defeating them and breaking their tokens is enough . Now, we will use the teleport formation, which our dear prince Sebe has gifted to us, to teleport everyone into a random location in the training camp area . There is no time limit; the camp will finish when only one remains . "
Although there wasn't any time limit, the past training camps never lasted more than a day, so Aiwai had been sure that they would be able to return home to sleep when she told Yale and Wyba about the tournament .
The formation activated, teleporting more than two hundred boys into the forest area designed for the training camp . That was the first time the participants entered in that way, in the past, they entered at the same time under the rule of not attacking anyone until the city chief gave the signal .
Yale appeared in a forest, and he jumped to a nearby tree to have a better vision of the area . As the training camp was in a forest, the field of view was limited, but also made the movements in the floor more predictable; Yale was hoping to use that combined with archery to beat others quickly .
Yale decided to remain without using his wings as he doubted that everyone had information about his flying capability and Yale planned to avoid attracting attention at the start . Although Yale was confident in himself, if everyone else combined their attacks on him, he would lose .
After a long time, Yale's Stealth Passive Skill turned useful again as Yale moved through the shadows of the trees; that skill was very useful in that kind of scenario .
After five minutes, Yale found his first target and shot an arrow without hesitation . The opponent was far too weak, it looked like thirteen or fourteen years but it was merely at the 1-star Novice Rank, Yale could kill him with one arrow, but he just shot towards his legs .The opponent was weak but not a fool; he understood that his life was in danger if he didn't forfeit quickly after receiving an arrow in his leg, so he broke the token creating the barrier and being teleported afterward .
Yale smiled after seeing that; he didn't have any reasons to start killing others without mercy, forcing them to forfeit was enough for him .
***
The people seeing the battle in the training camp didn't fail to notice Yale's strategy as he started to defeat more opponents with the same method without stopping .
"Aiwai, that little brother of yours is very good . Although he isn't as good as my grandson . "
The city chief was seated just beside Aiwai; he wanted to seat beside Sebe, but the nearest free place to him was at Aiwai's side . Sebe turned Yale's friend, so he seated with Aiwai and Wyba who also wanted to cheer for Yale .
The city chief didn't fail to notice that, and he wanted to show goodwill towards Aiwai while at the same time remarking that he was better than Aiwai by praising his own grandson . The chief hoped that Sebe would also pick interest in his grandson .
"That grandson of yours is a 1-star Apprentice, and he has the highest power level in the training camp, but he is at just the age limit to enter the competition . Compared to Yale who is only five years old, he can't be considered better . "
Sebe didn't find anything extraordinary in the kid with goat horns, his realm was higher than the others, but given the age difference, Sebe felt that Yale had more potential than him .
The city chief grandson had a very good bloodline, but he was the type who only relied on the bloodline to advance . That kind of people would never enter in Sebe's eyes .
Being a 1-star Apprentice was a great advantage in the training camp, his opponents just broke their tokens at the moment they saw him, he didn't fight even one battle until that moment .
Looking from a strategic point of view, he was merely overwhelming with power, while Yale was using tactics . Overwhelming with power could only be used against weaker opponents while tactics could be used against stronger ones . Thus, Sebe wasn't the only one who thought that Yale had a better performance than the city chief grandson .
***
"Dynamic Quest reward for Top 50: Martial Arts Innate Talent: Lowest grade . "
After only thirty minutes, Yale heard that notification in his head . At the same time, in the sky appeared a signal showing that only fifty participants remained in the training camp .
The number of participants quickly diminished as everyone was battling with others and the area wasn't big enough to avoid them meeting others .
The weaker participants just hoped to avoid meeting with someone powerful before reaching the Top 50 and get some rewards .
As the numbers diminished, the chances of finding powerful opponents increased and Yale had enough bad luck to find a 6-star Novice just after that moment .
That guy had a regular bloodline as his face was a mix among a pig and a human, but he was skilled in battling and managed to block Yale's sneak attack with the big hammer . The arrow wasn't able to damage such a big hammer .
"Coward! Come here and fight with me . Archery is for weaklings and cowards!"
The pig-guy had a bulky body; he was clearly suited for short-range combat .
"I was just trying to avoid hurting you more than I need . "
Yale didn't try to hide himself and appeared in front of the pig-guy, there was no way to hide from him for a long period . That was also the reason he decided to attack instead of looking for another target . As they would need to battle, Yale preferred to be the first to attack .
"What? A little kid? Are you joking? Do you really have that awesome luck to avoid battles until reaching the Top 50? However, since you attacked me your luck is over, this isn't a place for puny kids like you . "
***
"Beat him! Show that we are the strongest! "
A man with pig features on his face shouted those words . He was a 5-star Elder Rank and the father of the pig-guy who was in front of Yale .
"My little brother is the best; he is strong and handsome, it is obvious that he will win, there is no need to watch this training camp since the result is obvious . "
A fat girl with pig features on her face spoke those words in a loud voice to let everyone hear her .
Aiwai heard that, but she didn't plan to act against the pig-girl because she knew very well that Yale was powerful and that pig-guy wasn't someone who could beat him easily .
***
Yale took out a sword and attacked the pig-guy without hesitation . The opponent tried to block the attack with his big hammer, but he failed .
Yale was too quick while the pig-guy was too slow compared to him; in a short time, the pig-guy was full of small cuts by all his body .
Both were at the same realm, but Yale had maxed all his stats, while the pig guy obviously didn't have them even near the max .
"Coward! Face me directly instead of avoiding my attacks!"
Yale couldn't care less about that taunting; he wanted to win, not to be considered a stubborn guy who only knew how to attack head-on .
Two minutes later the pig-guy fell unconscious due to a kick on his head; Yale had finished him using Martial Arts as he feared that with the sword he would have killed him .
Yale looked for the pig-guy token and broke it with an arrow far away as he feared being caught in the shield and being teleported away . Leaving the training came area was the same as forfeiting, and Yale didn't dare to risk .
***
The pig-man and the pig-girl had their mouths open as the unconscious body of the pig-guy appeared after the teleportation . They felt shame after saying those smug words from before .
For a normal guy, a Top 50 would already be very good, but for a son of someone at the Elder Rank that was a shame .
