As Ray turned around, he could see Jack standing there. Jack didn"t wear much armour. He had a leather sleeveless vest on and just some standard trousers. But the one thing that did stand out on Jack was the giant great sword he held on his back. It Looked like it had been carved from a giant Magical beast tooth. The sword was the same size as Jack himself.
Ray could tell that Jack wasn"t like the other students. His dragon eyes were telling him differently. While most master knights were able to control their aura and Ki making it hard for Ray to tell how strong they were, Jack was just letting all of the energy flow out of him and currently, it was running wild.
"I finally get to meet you. It"s a shame that the two of us didn"t get matched up together, which means this may be the only chance we get to fight." Jack then pulled his great sword from his back. The giant sword looked weightless in Jack"s hand.
"So, is that why you sent that note? So, the two of us would battle? You"re not a member of Pureblood, are you?"
All though Ray asked these questions, he didn"t expect Jack to admit it. Ray wanted to see if Jack"s reaction would change at the mention of Pureblood.
"Note, what note? I simply spotted you and decided to follow. What a perfect place you chose to have our showdown."
Ray was then slightly confused. If Jack didn"t send that note, then that meant someone else did.
"Enough talking let"s go."
Jack suddenly charged in towards Ray. As Jack"s giant great sword came down, Ray infused his Ki into his gauntlets. The two them clashed sending waves of power through the arena.
"I knew you were strong!" Jack exclaimed, the excitement in his eyes growing with each pa.s.sing moment.
Jack had expected the great sword to slice right through the gauntlets or even for Ray to have dodged. Instead, he decided to take it head-on.
Ray felt the strength behind Jack"s attack and thought it felt like that of the minotaur. The two were currently in a stalemate of power with nether one budging.
But then, something caught Ray"s eye. Behind Jack, a dark figured appeared. It was fully dressed in black beast armour but one thing stood out: the red mask.
"Yes!" Ray shouted.
Now with the extra mana supplementing his Ki, he threw the giant blade with Jack of to one side and went straight for the man in the red mask.
Ray threw a fist out at the man with all his extra Ki. The red mask man brought out a spear using the pole to block the attack. The pole bent backwards but just when it looked like it was about to give. It bounced back reflecting the force back onto Ray.
Ray was sent flying backwards around ten feet. Ray then dug his hand using his fingertips into the ground to try to stop the momentum. Still, he carried on being dragged back a few feet until he eventually stopped.
"What in the…?" Ray was taken aback. He thought in his current state, there wouldn"t be many people who could take the full force of his punch like that.
Then the red masked man dashed towards Ray with the spear to finish him off. But before the red masked man could even move a few feet, a giant great sword came smashing down into the ground stopping the red masked man.
"What are you doing getting in the way of my fight!" Jack demanded.
He then pointed his great sword at the red masked man"s head.
"You look strong. Fight me!"
The red masked man tried moving around Jack trying to get to Ray. He would strike with his spear making Jack block then try to manoeuvre around him, but Jack was strong. He wasn"t going to let the red masked man go that easy. Every time the masked man would move, Jack would swing his great sword blocking the red man"s path.
The red masked man then made a signal with his hand. Suddenly, 5 men in the red masks descended into the arena around Ray. While the leader was preoccupied with Jack, the other 5 men charged at ray.
Jack and the leader resumed their fight. Despite Jack"s power and accuracy with his sword, the leader was always one step ahead of him and Jack"s strikes would miss the leader by a few inches. The leader was simply too fast for Jack. Then when the leader saw an opening, he went for a stab with his spear. As the tip of the spear hit Jack"s body, the spear started to bend.
"You really think, you can hurt me?" Jack patronized as he took another swing at the leader. The leader jumped back a few steps.
Jack wasn"t going to give the leader any time to rest. With Jack"s Ki-reinforced body he had nothing to worry about. He could swing as he wished knowing he wouldn"t get hurt.
Jack had an abnormal amount of Ki from a young age. The problem was he was never able to control it.
Unlike others, Jack wasn"t able to control his Ki to specific parts of his body or into the weapons he used. Instead, his Ki was always active all around his body.
Any other Kid with this amount of Ki from a young age would have died but Jack"s body was one of a kind.
Jack took another swing at the leader, this time it was too fast for the leader to avoid. The leader lifted up his spear, as he did against Ray. Unlike with Ray, the leader was sent flying through the air. The momentum from Jack"s strike propelled the leader skidding across the ground until he crashed into the arena walls.
The leader was confused. The spear had an ability to reflect any Ki back onto the user attacking it. This was why it was so effective on Ray. Why didn"t it work on Jack? The leader thought.
This was because Jack never used any Ki in his strikes in the first place. He didn"t know how to.
As the leader stood up, his face mask started to crumble and pieces started to fall on the ground.
Jack could see the man"s face he had been fighting.
"Killer!" Jack exclaimed.
