Chapter 526: Let’s Team Up

Twenty minutes later, it was time for the next set to get on stage.

While walking to the stage, Grey was sensible enough to study the people who were heading towards the stage he wanted to pick. He might be arrogant, but he’s definitely not stupid.

Taking Overlord Plane Elementalists like they were Origin Plane Elementalists would be the biggest mistake he’ll ever make in this competition, and since he planned to stay in the competition for a long time, he couldn’t be careless.

Before getting to the stage, he had surveyed where all the participants were headed. Thanks to this, he didn’t have any issues with picking a stage to get on.

Of the two stages that would be used, the last one was the one least occupied by people in the Third stage of the Overlord Plane, and that was the one he picked.

Ezra and Jesse were surprisingly also in this stage as well, and seeing Grey come towards the stage they narrowed their eyes.

Everyone here recognized Grey, and there were a few Overlord Plane Elementalists that were eager to show this newly crowned number one genius in the Origin Plane some lessons.

While waiting for the battle to begin, Grey took the liberty of approaching Ezra and Jesse.

“What do you want?” Ezra asked when she saw him getting close.

“As you can see, I’m not particularly welcome in the eyes of many here. So I feel our chances would be great if we were to team up,” Grey said with a smile.

Ezra and Jesse paused, surprised by Grey’s words. They originally thought he was the arrogant type given his display from the previous day. Only now did they know that he was a totally different person.

“Actually, you approaching her has made you even more unwelcomed in the eyes of most of the male Elementalists here. As you can see, a lot of them have a thing for Ezra, and some would feel beating you might be the opportunity they need to get closer to her,” Jesse said.

Grey turned around, and he couldn’t help but shake his head when he saw the gazes most of the male Elementalists on the stage were giving him.

“*Sigh* Great! Just when I thought it wouldn’t get worse,” He sighed dejectedly.

“Alright, I’ll move away, see you guys in the next round then,” He turned around, walking to another side of the stage.

Jesse and Ezra nodded, but it was after Grey left did they suddenly recall his last words.

“Did he just say see you guys in the next round?” Ezra couldn’t help but ask.

“Yeah,” Jesse nodded, stumped by Grey’s confidence even after seeing how the situation looked.

From the gazes some of the boys here were giving Grey, it was evident that he would be the target of many. All wishing to eliminate him even before the competition goes far.

The remaining participants soon got on the other stages, and it was time for the supervisors to call for the start of the battles.

Most of the attention from the crowd was placed on the stage where Grey was standing, they all wanted to see how this genius would fare against opponents on another Plane.

Would he be able to breeze through like he previously did in the Origin Plane competition, or would he be stopped early on?

“Begin!”

As soon as the supervisor called for the battle to begin, Grey’s location was instantly flooded with a series of attacks. Each attack coming from a different individuals.

When Sylvia and Void made a headcount, there were about eleven people attacking Grey simultaneously. It was a shocking scene as different elements converged on one position.

Those who were standing close to Grey had already created some space between them just when the battle was about to begin since they sensed what would happen after the battle started.

Ezra and Jesse watched on with Grey interest, waiting for the attacks to die down.

Although Grey’s situation was attracting a lot of conditions, other people had started fighting on the stage, as well as the other two.

Swoosh! Bang!

A blue flame was seen spreading at the center of the attacks, before exploding out in all directions. Sending out a powerful shockwave across the entire stage.

Some unlucky individuals who were standing at the edge of the stage were even knocked off, getting eliminated by the power of the shockwave.

The others on stage turned to look at the cause of the shockwave, and to their surprise, Grey could be seen standing there, blue flames burning around him as he looked around with cold eyes.

….

At the judges’ area.

“Blue flames, he also has red lightning, right?” Ezra’s Teacher asked when he saw Grey’s fire.

“Yes, for a single individual to possess two special elements is not something you see every day,” Another judge nodded.

“This boy is a real talent, if he can get through this stage, I don’t mind recruiting him,” A lady said.

“Why are you sounding as if you’re giving him a privilege? Given the strength he has shown, do you think we’ll sit idly and watch you snatch him up? None of the geniuses in this region seems to hold a light when placed in front of him,” An old man said.

“Isn’t that a little bit too exaggerated? Don’t forget that he’s only still at the Peak of the Origin Plane,” Ezra’s Teacher said.

Of all the people here, he was the only one who didn’t like Grey. One of the reasons for this was because of the manner in which Grey decided his prized pupil.

While the judges were arguing on who would recruit Grey, the battle had started once again.

On the stage.

After Grey blocked the attacks with his flames, he didn’t hold back and instantly attacked the group who attacked him in the first place, charging straight right into them.
