The Author's POV

"Begin!"

The moment the referee's words faded, both Ava and Amelia simultaneously moved.

Raising his hand, the mana in the air agglomerated towards the palm of Amelia's hand creating a circular pressurized wind ball. Within a couple of seconds the ball turned the size of a basketball before with a low shout, Amelia directed the ball in Ava's direction.

Swooosh—!

With a low hissing sound, the ball quickly headed in Ava's direction as it pierced through the air at a terrifying speed. It was so fast that the spectators below were unable to see a thing.

At the same time Amelia was preparing to attack, holding onto three blue cards, Ava quickly channeled her mana into them and threw them in front of her. As she did so, she pressed her foot on the ground and pushed her body back.

SHIIING— SHIIING—

The moment the cards left her hand, three massive ice pillars materialized in front of her.

Bang—!

It was then that the ball came into contact with them and a terrifying explosion resounded throughout the whole arena. But it had to be noted, Ava was two minor ranks lower than Amelia, and so were the cards.

The moment the ball came into contact with the pillars they instantly broke apart into pieces like broken glass, creating a small mist in the air.

Fortunately, Ava already knew about the fragility of the ice pillars. The only reason she used them was to buy herself enough time for her next move, which was exactly what she did.

Taking out her flute, she quickly blew at its ip

Tootle too~

A melodious tune suddenly rang throughout the whole arena grounds.

Meanwhile, as Ava was blowing onto the flute, Amelia's attack never stopped. The only thing that was different about the attack was that its momentum had slowed down. This was of course a result of the ice pillars.

Within a couple of seconds, the attack was already in front of Ava. However, it was then that something happened.

Just as the attack was land on her, a massive boulder-like creature materialized in front of her and crashed onto the ground with a loud bang.

Booom—

Then, following the appearance of the creature, a terrifying explosion resounded throughout the arena as the ball came into contact with the creature. Dust and debris flew in the air, blocking the sight of all parties present.

As this happened, the hearts of every human that was watching tightened as everyone wondered.

'Was Ava able to stop the attack or not?'

Fortunately, all doubt seemed to resolve over the next few seconds as the dust settled down revealing an enormous beetle-like creature standing in front of Ava.

With its anterior opened wide and only a few scratches on it, the creature looked completely unharmed. Furthermore, standing behind it was Ava who had her flute pressed by her lips.

Confusion instantly appeared on the viewers faces as they looked at the creature standing in front of Ava.

Fortunately, the announcers were not just there for show as Lorena quickly commented.

"That right there is a metal-plated beetle. A creature that has low attacking power, but incredible defensive power. Simply put, they are tremendous tanks."

Nodding his head, Zack quickly followed up from the side. Excitement flashed across his eyes.

"Right, as you've just seen, despite only being a low ranking creature it was still able to withstand the impact from Amelia. Ava's opponent."

"Oh, it looks like Ava is going to summon more creatures," Lorena added as she pointed toward the screen in front of her.

And just as her words faded, Ava once again blew on the flute.
