Monster Integration

The Championship continued, fights after fights kept being fought in ten arenas. Some fights ended in second, while others took hours. The audience in full spirit while some intelligent people like me frowned.

Especially me who is feeling intense pressure, as I watched the fights, I couldn't help but notice how weak I am. I may be able to reach the Top 10 but going further than that would be extremely difficult.

In the ten groups that were fighting, I noticed some people were still winning the fights in single moves, and by the time battles for Top 10 finished on the 13th day of the Championship, I was in intense pressure.

I am feeling pressure because of the ten people that got into the Top 10, seven of them had finished their battles in a single move, without showing even an ounce of their power.

Jill and Ellen are among these people, and two who had shown their powers were Rhea and me; even Rhea hadn't revealed Diamond's defense of hers, which means she is still holding back a lot of her strength.

I am not the only one who is lacking in confidence in myself, others too, which is why when I checked the betting site, I found my odds are worse. Even Rhea had much much better odds on her and than me.

I had just returned to the mansion with the professor a few minutes, and now we are sitting in the conference room discussing the strategy.

"You should be most careful of two people tomorrow," Professor said, and the projection of two people appeared in front of me, "Edmond Soren and Ellen Smith." She muttered.

I looked at the projection of Ellen before turning toward the projection Edmond. Seeing him, my expression couldn't help but turn serious. It is not only because he is powerful but also because he is the target I had to defeat no matter what.

He is the member of Sky Saber and the same young man which the powerhouse of the Sky Saber had brought with those two people. Ever since, I know, he is participating in the battle, I wanted to defeat him.

"Both of them are extremely powerful," Professor said with a sigh, "You might not know, but that friend of yours had an Apex Grade Bloodline, which is the most desired thing in the whole world," she said.

When Elina heard 'Apex Bloodline' a look of extreme lodging couldn't help but appear in her, I do not know much about Bloodlines, but I know their value is greater than a special constitution, and Inheritance as a powerful Bloodline could give these two things to his host.

I had known about Ellen having bloodline, she had not hidden from me, but I did not expect it to Apex Grade Bloodline, which changes everything. The Constitution I had been so proud of is nothing in front of her.

If she had activated her Bloodline Completely, then Bloodline would grant her an Apex level Constitution which will be a grade above mine, and that will be just one of the perks of Apex Bloodline given.

"This is Edmond Soren, he also has Grade 12 Constitution like you, but unlike you, he had accepted the inheritance," Professor said as happened on his projection and his info started to appear.

"He had accepted the Level 4 Inheritance, and with that merged with his Constitution, the power he could show is above the Level 5 inheritance, not to forget the power of the Art he could show with his special constitution," the Professor said, hearing that, I couldn't help but shudder.

What kind of monster did they bring here? With such power, he is equal to Ellen, who had yet to activate her bloodline completely. These people would not need much strength to crush someone like me.

"These are strong, but the other seven are not much weak either." the professor said, and the projection of the seven people appeared, and the professor started to describe the strength of seven people.

When I started to hear it, I couldn't quite believe myself. Each and every one of them is very strong; even Rhea, whom I used to consider my equal, is terrifyingly powerful when the Diamond comes to play.

Till now, what she had shown is the surface of what she had possessed, and her real strength is quite terrifying.

The professor is somehow able to gather quite detailed info on all people except for one, and that is Jill. There is a lot of info about her, but all of it useless, till now all fights she had flights and whatever recorded of her, she never showed her true abilities.

All the fights she had fought, she had finished them all with her Physical strength without using any abilities.

The intel credible we have about her is that she had accepted a very powerful inheritance; this is all the professor was able to get from her when she had scanned Jill with her senses.

"I had thought with your strength, you are getting into Top 5 even Top 3 would not be a problem but looked like I was utterly wrong," Elina said with a laugh; seeing her laugh, I couldn't help but laugh too as I had thought the same before the start of the competition.

"Micheal, have you made any progress with the last hurdle of your Art?" Professor asked, to which I shook my head.

Two weeks ago, the professor had offered me an Art; at that time, I had told her I had already had it and was trying to comprehend it. Now, I had almost comprehended the whole Art, leaving just a tiny piece of it.

As long as I comprehend that tiny piece, everything would fall into place, and I would be able to use the power of the 1st Chapter. But till now, all attempts to comprehend it has turned futile; still, I will keep trying.

"You rest well, tomorrow will be a tough day." the professor said after another hour of discussion.
