Ancient Tears BloodLine



Days passed,

A week later,

The Saw Scale Viper Academy is slowly gearing up for the year end competition. The Flame Faction, The Gale Faction, The Rain Faction, The Metal Faction and The Rock Faction's warriors are challenging each other every day in the duel arena.

The only faction which avoided the limelight is the Special Faction. The Special Element Warriors are less in numbers to begin with. So their movements are rarely known by people.

The Special Faction Common Room:

Michael and his friends are passing time in the Common Room. Nowadays, their favorite pastime is to watch the duel between warriors.

There are quite a few warriors who have ended their retreat. Now they are preparing for the year end conference as well. 

A holographic protection is displaying the current duel.

Now a duel is taking place between warriors from the Rain Faction and the Rock Faction.

The Rain Faction is mostly composed of female warriors. But some of their female warriors are gifted with powerful water elements.

Seeing the competitive fight between the warriors. A hint of longing appeared in Laverne's eyes. 

Chuckle~

Michael couldn't help but smile. 

"Laverne?"

"If you want to fight that badly, then you can challenge them," Michael said with a smile.

"Ha...Ha...Ha...," Ernest let out a laugh.

"Man, I'm itching to fight. But those elders won't let us play," Ernest said.

He wasn't exaggerating. But this was a fact. Their elements are special and they dominate over other elements. 

Unless a warrior blessed with one of the five elements appears. None of the average five elemental warriors can defeat them. 

"Harumph, when it's time for Super Elite Warrior. I'll request the dean for duel," Michael said.

While three of them were laughing and chatting comfortably. 

Thud~

A person walked into the room without any warning. 

Seeing the person appear. Three of them were stunned. 

"Chad?" Michael said in a solemn tone.

Ernest and Laverne's faces turned serious as well.

The person appears to be 25 years old. He has red hair and black eyes. He stands 6ft tall in height. His skin tone is fair.

Like Michael, Laverne and Ernest. He is also a member of the Special Faction. Like other faction warriors, he too ended his retreat.

Chad Bartlett- Half Step SS Elite Warrior- Evil Wind Element. 

Looking at the disbelief expression on their faces. Chad reveals a sly smile on his face.

He is not a kind fellow. He always looks for a fight. Seeing Michael, his heart boils in anger. Last time he was defeated by Michael.

In anger, he had secluded himself for a long retreat. But his patience paid him in the end. He broke through and became a half-step SS Elite Warrior. 

Meanwhile, three of the friends are in a state of alert. The mad man had come back so soon. While Laverne and Ernest know the rivalry between the two. So they didn't think much.

Michael defeated Chad last time. So this time won't be any different. 

But only Michael feels something is wrong. His instinct tells him to be wary of the unknown.

"Michael?"

"Are you surprised?"

"Well, I got some improvement during my retreat. So this time you won't be able to win that easily/"

"He didn't disclose his breakthrough for a reason. He wants to surprise him during the duel."

Chad spoke without minding the other two. 

"Sigh"

"The duel arena is packed. The platforms are occupied by other factions. Why don't we fight some other day," Michael replied.

Laverne and Ernest are surprised by Michael's words. His tone changed all of a sudden. He is not the same Michael they knew.

"Has something changed?' Laverne squinted her big eyes. 

Ernest is usually the quickest one. So he thought Chad was a bit unusual. He looks more enthusiastic about the duel.

"Ha...Ha...Ha...," Chad let out a small laughter.

"Don't you think your excuse is bit lame"

"Are you afraid of those loser factions?"

"Come with me. I'll clear out the duel platform. I don't think the elders will stop me. Like everyone we will also train for the year end conference," Chad spoke like a smart one.

Michael's mouth twitched. "Mad man's mind is fixed. He won't leave us without having a duel," He said in his heart.

He looked at Ernest and Laverne. He gave a slight nod before walking toward the exit door.

Chad revealed a wide grin on his face. He knew Michael agreed with his request.

Seeing Michael leaving, Laverne and Ernest hurriedly followed behind.

Chad is slowly following them behind. He is already imagining the condition of Michael.

The Duel Arena,

The arena is jam packed with people. All the warriors from four institutions gathered in the arena to watch the duels between the warriors.

Usually, there is one large fighting platform laid out in the middle of the ground. But this time the Academy arranged 10 fighting platforms.

Two warriors from each faction occupied the platforms. Resulting in no place for Special Faction Warriors.

Outside, 

Michael arrived with his friends. Behind them Chad was one step backward. When four of them entered the gate. 

The staff quickly recognised their badges. 

"What are you guys doing here?" A burly middle aged man stood up from his seat and asked.

Michael's expression turned ugly. It's true that Special Faction Warriors are low-key. Partially due to the influence of the head. And then because they have less members.

Before Michael could answer.

Chad appeared before them.

"Who are you?"

"We are here to practice as well. Do these factions own these duel arenas?"

"Don't forget we are from Special Faction. We have the same rights as them."

"Are these losers going to win without our help?"

"Harumph," 

Chad finished his words with a cold snort. 

The middle aged staff oppressed by Chad's aura. He broke out in a cold sweat. The other staff around him became speechless as well.

None of them were able to refute Chad's words.

A black line appeared on Michael and the other two's foreheads. Hereafter no one will stop them. As Chad rightfully spoke. The Special Faction have the right to use one of the dual platforms.

Then four of them walked towards the entrance. Leaving behind the dumbfounded staff.

Michael and Chad entered the ground. Followed by Ernest and Laverne. They can see that the arena is filled with people. 

Below the duel is going on in each platform. There are warriors standing near the platform to fight next.

Chad gave a quick glance. His eyes scanned the surroundings and then finally set on the nearest platform. 

In that platform, the duel is going on between Flame Faction Warrior and the Rock Faction Warrior. 

Four of them walked to the platform. At this time none of them noticed the strange thing. But when four of them went closer. 

The Elder who is also referee for this duel raised his hand to stop Chad from interfering.

Below, Michael, Laverne and Ernest's expressions darkened. But it can't be helped. No one can stop Chad now. Except their own head who is in retreat as well.

Ignoring the elder, Chad stepped inside the fighting platform. He looked towards them and said,"You guys can leave. Now this fighting platform belongs to us."

His words made them speechless. The flame faction warrior was displeased. He was in a dominating position. He was going to defeat the rock faction warrior. 

But this person appeared out of nowhere.

"No, my duel is not over yet," The flame faction warrior said in a loud tone.

The Rock faction warrior stayed still. He wanted this duel to end anyway. He didn't mind someone stopping the duel.

But the referee was not clueless as them. He immediately recognized four of them after identifying their badges. 

"Special Faction Warriors," His eyes gleamed with twinkle. As per dean's order, all factions have the right to use the fighting platform.

So he can't stop them from interfering.

Chad's eyes grew cold.

Swish~

His body flashes for a moment but it becomes clear the next second. 

Tud~

Two bodies crash on to the ground. Both of their noses are broken. 

Sudden movement caught everyone off guard. Even the referee himself was surprised by Chad's strength. 

"Michael, you can come now. And Elder you will be referring to our duel as well,' Chad said, looking at them.

The Elder dumbfounded but he nodded his head in the end.

Michael nodded at Ernest and Laverne before stepping in. 

At this moment, the changes attracted not only attention of other warriors in the fighting platform but also audiences in the arena. 

"What is going on?" 

The audience exclaimed in surprise. Everything was going on smoothly. But someone intervened in the duel. 

And the referee didn't say anything. Soon their images were shown in the projection. Right after, everyone recognised their dresses and badges.

"Special Faction Warriors," 

The crowd exclaimed in surprise. It's not an everyday sight where you can watch the Special Faction Warrior's fight.

Cheer~

So the crowd erupted in a loud cheer. All the warriors from the four grade institution are starting to make a loud noise. 

Which in turn made all the elders set their sights on the 10th platform. Even the fight going on the other platform is stopped.
