บท 161: TOP 10 STRONGEST STUDENTS

"I will now begin to call out the top ten strongest students of this prestigious Academy" Sylvester exclaimed in solemnity as a list suddenly appeared on his palm.

'It has finally started' Kaelen thought as he steeled himself from getting nervous.

As Sylvester began to announce the top five ranked students, a ripple of excitement surged through the audience. First, the mysterious swordsman, obviously ranked first, appeared with a shroud of shadowy energy, his arrival evoking awe from all present.

Following him, the second-ranked "Dark Prince" emerged in a burst of dark flame, his confident stance provoking a wave of whispers.

'He is the only student above me that I haven't had any dealings with' Kaelen thought grimly as he observed the 'Dark Prince' standing confidently on the ring.

"Hey, am next" But he didn't dwell on that thought for long as Lila suddenly brought him back to the present.
