After that were insanely intense matches, this time it was not the struggle of snakes but dragons fighting for the rise
The dwarves had an immense increase in their strength since the last time, the whole field was crushed into bits but unfortunately their enemies were Onis
"Onis are surprisingly Spiritual beings ..."
"It's my first time meeting one"
"They are fast and strong!"
The fairies commented after inspecting the Onis who moved like gusts of fog and dodged all ground crushing strikes of Dwarves
"Cover them from all sides! Use Earth magic to make a field!!!"
The leader of Dwarves commanded all deserve quickly arrived at the corners of the field and smashed their hands into the ground
The whole ground trembled and the earth walls started to rise all around the dueling field
The ground started to turn much hotter and the heat even started affecting the audience but the Onis in field didn't seem much effected
And next moment the red horns of Onis glowed a little in dim light and next moment a red phantom rose behind their heads
All of them dashed forward towards at almost same time, the dwarves saw that and tried to defend with their weapons access shields
But the sudden rise in overall combat powers of the Onis was too much to handle for them
The other dwarves were eliminated in a flash but the leader still held it well but it was only a matter of time before his Giant Battle Axe got broken into mere pieces by the giant blunt sword of the female Oni
The one called Oni princess and leader of the Onis in the tournament and had few tattoos around her hands and leg
'She's got just like the novels...'
Klaus observed her closely... Very closely... Close to the point it was too much
"Stop it you pervert!!!"
"Bad Klaus!!!"
"What are you doing!?!"
The fairies immediately covered Klaus's gazes, Klaus was saved from being identified as pervert but this wasn't the case for Reus and Sam
"Aau! Au! What was that for!?? You almost destroyed my eyes!!"
"Gyaaahhhh! My eyes!!!"
Both got their eyes poked by the fingers of Yumiko and Anna, Pette was a tough guy he still focused on that's what others thought
'This guy... Isn't his focus on that announcer girl, how can he be such a pervert with a straight face...'
Klaus noticed the line of Pette's gaze and his all respect for him got floated away along with light in Reus and Sam's eyes
In the next match all the students of Blade school got wiped out by the Dragonets of Oasis Academy
There was no time to even struggle, they got swept away with just one large scale water based attack of Dragonet Leader
It was quite pitiful considering that they were almost about to reach semi finals
Even the audience gave them pitiful gazes and consoled them after the match
And finally the last match of the final round came, it was without any doubt the most interesting match till now in tournament
It was the clash between demons and beastmen
"Start!!!"
As the announcer said that both sides immediately clashed against each other, to common people it looked like they literally just teleported out of nowhere
Even Danzal who usually stood back before the true fight clashed into the front lines and smashed his clawed first with an tiger beastman
The shockwaves of attack were all over the place, both sides were immensely strong and fast along with good durability
Beastmen and Demons were both known for being all rounders, they had immense strength, agility, durability and health but just one thing made demons stronger that beastmen was their crazy strong magic ability...
Tier 5 magic_ 4 clawed fist blade!
Tier 6 magic_ Wing blades!
Tier 4 magic_ Dark explosion
All three demons at front launched strong attacks but beastmen also had few racial advantages, their crazy strong instincts and reflexes
The beastmen grinned and immediately jumped into air, with strong physical abilities they easily managed to avoid all magic attacks
But unfortunately for then demons had ability to fly too, all the demons immediately dashed towards the beastmen who were still in air
The demons were quite fast during this process, they arrived right in front of the beastmen and their claws dashed towards the beastmen
The beastmen were quite fast but all of them couldn't avoid that attack and half of them got eliminated right in the process
"Sigh... One still can't avoid bad matchups in the fight huh..."
Klaus sighed seeing this, it was also within his expectations, and thought with serious face
'Both of them still have another strong move but it's still too much you show in matches like this...'
On the other hand Danzal grinned and a lot of mana for collected into his hands as he dashed towards the leader of beastmen
Just like that within a few minutes the whole team of beastmen got wiped out without a word,
"Woooaaaahhhhh!?!"
But even then the audience was still super fired up seeing their match, it was really on next level
"Hey? You saw that!!!"
"That's almost absurd isn't it?!"
"To strong..."
"My eyes couldn't even catch up..."
The students of Academy commented in amazement, even Reus and the team had the serious face after watching the match
This was a true battle of races, now it also represented the strength hierarchy of races for peoples
"Today's match were truly astonishing! I don't think even in history there has been a match as good as this but looks like things will be getting more interesting in future
The final qualifiers of Semi finals are!!!
Genesis Academy of Heroes!!!
Asmodeus School of Demons!!!
1000th Sakura School of Onis!!!
Oasis Academy of Dragonets!!!
Let's meet again tomorrow for the Semi Finals of the winners!!!"
With that the matches for the 3rd round ended and it was time for the Semi finals, next day whole place was filled with thousands of peoples of different races
The arena seats were filled with more people than ever, after the last match the popularity had risen beyond control
The first battle was between Demons and Onis and next one was between Klaus's team and Dragonets
The winners will decide the qualifiers for the finals, currently all gazes were on Demons and Onis in the duel ground
"Start!!!!"
This time both sides didn't clashed immediately after hearing the signal instead they were still observing each other's movements
This looked like shoot out scene, the one who moves first will win but question was that 'Will he be alive after he moves?'
Suddenly aura exploded from both sides and they rushed against each other but Onis were far more faster than demons in the ground field
The swords and claws clashed against each other and clear difference was felt
Onis were far faster but demons were more durable and physically stronger,
"Orrraaahhhh!"
The Onis suddenly shouted and pinkish red aura started covering them, after that all Onis aggressively kept clashing their blunt blades over the demons
The demons looked a troubled with that but thier bodies were still very durable they kept taking the damages and trying to dodge as much as possible
Danzal gritted his teeth in front of large blows of blunt sword of Oni princess and tried to deflect as much as possible but it seemed like it was still not working
Suddenly the leader of demons shouted "Demon Blood Awakening!!!!"
As he shouted all other demons also grinned and shouted the same thing and next moment their eyes and horns started glowing in mana light
Their overall physical and magical powers rose to next level and now they could fight with the Onis in equal ground
The fight continued just like that but not much effect could be seen on the ground, the leader of demons noticed the situation and ordered the Danzal
"Do it!!!"
Danzal and others heard him and immediately started retreating backwards and after danzal created a good distance he started gathering immense amount of energy into his front
"Now this looks kinda dangerous...."
Klaus muttered seeing the amount of mana leaking from Danzal in a daze
