Amon, The Legendary Overlord

Mayor Ricardo Nunes, now the tournament referee, said in a loud voice for everyone to hear, "Let's start with the qualifiers."

He explained, "There are approximately 10,000 participants, so we are going to have ten groups with 1,000 people; only 100 will make it to the next round for each group."

Everyone's heart began to beat faster. They could be eliminated if they are careless, especially if they are attacked from all sides. There were 1,000 participants fighting each other to determine 100 winners...

Amon's eyes showed a little more coldness, filled with the spirit of battle. 'If this is how they're doing it, maybe it won't be bad after all'¦.'

Of course, of all of them, he may be the only one who's happy about it.

If it goes like he said, there will be a thousand participants left for the next match.

From 10 thousand, it will be reduced to a thousand...

But even so, it wouldn't be enough. If you are going to fight individually afterward, it will likely take a few days until the end of the tournament.

"Very likely it won't be individual fights later." Ariel had a smile on her pretty face as she spoke. She was relaxed, not caring about the danger. She was confident of being in the top 10.

Barbara stuck out her tongue and said, "It would be nice if we fell into the same group as Amon, so it's guaranteed we'll move on to the next round."

"True," They couldn't agree more. If it's Amon, he might be able to get a thousand on his own.

Only they knew how high his stamina was.

If they were grouped together, they could make it to the next round easily.

But, they only had a 10% chance of falling into the same group as Amon.

The referee spoke again, "Without further ado, let's draw the groups."

A holographic image appeared in the middle of the stadium. There, a list of names of the participants appeared.

"We are in the same group!" Maisa and Barbara celebrate when they see they are in the same group as Amon.

Julia was a little dismayed to see they were in a different group. She looks at Ariel and comforts herself; 'At least I'm in the same group as her...'

Although not as strong as Amon, Ariel was powerful, with very unique and powerful genetics. If the two cooperated, they were able to get through the qualifiers with ease.

Amon, Maisa, and Barbara were in the third group, while Ariel and Julia were in the fourth group.

The other students at the school were in the second group, but Julia and the rest of the Girls didn't even bother to look, as they weren't interested in them.

At the same time, Elijah was upset to see that he wasn't in the same group as Amon but was in the first group instead.

'You're very lucky'¦.' Elijah thought grimly.

Maicon was in the first group too. To his bad, or good, luck, depending on which angle you see, didn't fall into the same group as Amon or Ariel.

Ariel was the most disappointed. She now knew she was stronger than Maicon and wanted to be in the same group as him and maybe break an arm or two or even a leg of his? Mm... In fact, it was a pity...

Maicon felt Ariel's gaze and misunderstood, so instead, he was happy and smiled at her. But in return, he received a look full of ridicule.

Ricardo Nunes, the referee, said in a loud voice, "Now that the groups have been separated, those in the first group stay, the rest leave and wait in their appropriate selected groups."

In the stands, the groups were separated into holographic numbers and colors; the group that Amon was in was green. Ariel and Julia's was purple.

Leaving the arena, they went to the space set aside for them.

Amon looked at the first group with complete disinterest. At most, it seemed to have someone with 40 genetic unlocks, but they weren't even filled.

"And, begin!" The referee shouted as the protective barrier was erected in a dome shape around the stadium.

Soon the fighting began. Some, who knew each other, or from the same school, formed groups while attacking the other participants. Elijah and Maicon did just that.

After watching the battle for a few minutes, Amon's interest was totally dead. It was worse than he imagined, and even the twins and Barbara were stronger than them. Not to mention Ariel, who was second only to Amon.

It was quite disappointing.

Amon sighed.

'I hope there is someone stronger in the other groups.' Amon closed his eyes as he preferred to meditate.

Even Julia, Maisa, and Barbara thought they were pretty bad. I mean, they were full of flaws and unnecessary movement. It wasn't even a question of power; it was more the fact that the way they used their powers seemed very mediocre. Very few were worth looking at a second time.

'Has Maicon always been so weak?' Ariel also lost interest when she saw how weak Maicon was. Before, he seemed to be strong, but now... 'As expected, training with Amon was the best thing I did.' She smiled.

.

.

Almost 1 hour later, the first group ended. Among the finalists, Maicon and Elijah managed to survive. They were sweating profusely, with some bruises, but had a smug smile as they looked in Amon's direction.

'Hehe... Next is you!' Elijah cast a meaningful look in Amon's direction.

Maicon clenched his hands into fists and looked at Ariel, only to notice that she wasn't even looking in his direction. It made his heart bleed...

Soon, Maicon turned the blame to Amon and glared at him, 'Son of a bitch, if you make it through the qualifiers, pray you don't go against me!' Then, he swore he would defeat Amon and make him look ugly in front of Ariel.

"A round of applause for the 100 finalists!" The referee yelled.

*Clap! Clap! Clap! Clap!Clap! Clap!*

By the standards of this planet, their fight was pretty satisfactory, and soon everyone started clapping as they whistled and shouted the name of the 100 who made it through the qualifiers.

When they left and went to the stands, the next group entered just as the protective barrier left.

The other two students were in the second group. They went to the stadium with the other participants, and, soon, the protective barrier was raised again.
