Bab 48: A display of strength

By evening, it was Avila's turn, swiftly defeating a weaker opponent, she soon got ready to battle with a stronger opponent, and for whatever reason, he was almost fifty ranks higher than her.

Her opponent, an extremely thin kid climbed up the stage, weaponless, unlike the other opponents. He bowed slightly towards Avila, before clenching his stretch out fists.

The audience erupted with cheers, as two popular students were paired together. The lanky kid with extremely flexible limbs and Avila, a powerful wind ability user.

The audience's cheers turned into a roar as Avila squared off against the lanky, weaponless kid. His slight bow was the only warning she got before his arms shot out, stretching unnaturally, reaching for her faster than she expected.
