Mixed Blessing System - 537 Challenge

The next day, the Ritter Motor Company had already counted 1,400 cars ordered the day before. However, since it would continue to be open Monday through Friday, more orders were expected for this Tuesday.

The store employees had collected almost 50 million bronze coins the previous day, an amount large enough to develop a new factory that was even larger than the first!

Viktoria, who already knew about Lothur’s interests, as soon as she received these updates early in the morning, went out to start the Ritter Motor Company expansions to ensure the delivery of vehicles from the buyers.

But it would not take her long to settle these matters. At midday, the second and penultimate day of competitions for places in the Secret Realm would begin, so she would return to the academy to follow that.

While she was dealing with her family’s business, Lothur, Elke, and Annaliese were cultivating or training, preparing for this second day.

Yesterday they had hardly fought at all, as many competitors were weaker than them and would obviously give up against them. But today, with fewer competitors left, they were hoping to face stronger and braver people who might give them some trouble.

Consequently, instead of going out to solve problems at the Ritter Motor Company, they continued training in their homes!

…

In the middle of the day, Lothur and his women moved into the Morning Star Academy, prepared for another day of fighting.

None of them were too eager for the matches, but they all had their minds set on winning and securing their spots in the Secret Realm.

The matches would soon begin, with Elke being the first to take the stage for the battles.

“Competitor Elke Becker passes this match by forfeit of her opponent!” The match referee, one of the teachers from Sector 3, said loudly, announcing the result of her first match on this second day of battles.

But instead of stepping down from the stage of battles at the end of her match, Elke surprised everyone with a challenge!

“Referee of the match, I wish to challenge student Erich Baier of Sector 4.” She said aloud while pointing toward a level 11 young man, the favorite of that sector, to get the Soul Bone and a spot in the Secret Realm.

When Elke’s words finished being spoken, all the students in that arena immediately looked at Erich, who was somewhat pale at the moment.

This fellow knew about Elke’s current level, which was higher than his. But he had never considered that this person would try to challenge him.

Elke was very different from Lothur. She showed no hostility or sense of revenge against the people in her surroundings. So the strongest member of the youngest generation of the Baier family was surprised to be challenged by her.

On the other hand, the match’s referee saw this as normal since Elke’s current power was too great for the students of Sector 3.

Since the challenge was something that allowed students from different sectors to do what she was attempting, he quickly accepted the challenge and said. “Competitor Erich Baier, you have been challenged, and by the rules of the competition, you have no choice.

Will you fight, or will you withdraw from the competition?”

Gulp!

‘Shit!’ That young man clenched his fists, but since the difference in level between him and Elke was only two levels, he stood up from where he was, determined to fight for his spot.

If Elke won, by the rules of the competition, she would have to continue fighting in the Sector 4 competition and could no longer challenge anyone. But if she lost, he was the one who could no longer be challenged, so as the strongest in Sector 4, he would be practically guaranteed the Soul Bone and the spot in the Secret Realm.

With that in mind, he would rather suffer a little to defeat Elke, who had gotten too strong too fast and shouldn’t have a solid cultivation base, than just give up!ραпdα `nᴏνɐ| сom

“I accept the challenge!” He said as he ran to that fighting spot.

Lothur and Annaliese saw that and smiled, seeing that Elke was no fool and wanted the Sector 4 Soul Bone for herself!

Meanwhile, Larissa had Elke’s action in her mind, the alternative she would have if she could not beat Lothur.

Unlike people who lost in challenges, those students defeated in predestined matches had the opportunity to make a challenge after their defeat.

That was not something that was well-regarded among the students and teachers of the academy. Still, it was a possibility to sharpen the competition and give talented losers a chance.

With this in mind, she looked in Annaliese’s direction, imagining that this would be her only chance if she lost to Lothur…

Anyway, after a few moments, Erich was on the battle stage 20 meters away from Elke, looking at this level 13 woman, extremely concentrated since he knew he couldn’t fail her.

Besides not being able to fail to not lose the match, he could not be distracted since this competition allowed the competitors to use enough power to win. In other words, she could end up seriously injuring him and not even be punished by the academy!

The Secret Realm was even more dangerous for these students, so it was natural that rules to protect students from this would not exist!

With that, when the referee signaled for the fight, that man barely heard anything, just continuing in his position, waiting for his opponent’s movement.

Elke, on the other hand, paid attention to her opponent. When she noticed he would not start attacking, she smiled, seeing she would win easily.

‘Does he think he can defeat me by holding off my attacks?

Naive!

I haven’t shown my speed in public yet!’ She thought, watching her opponent without moving.

Because of Lothur, she had an extremely capable body, which made her faster than all the Spiritual Warriors in this city, except for Viktoria, Annaliese, and her man.

So the moment Elke acted, everyone in that place, except for the few who knew about her speed, opened their mouths in shock.

When she moved, that fellow with only 56 attribute points in Constitution saw his opponent disappear from his front.

Then, while Erich was in the dark about what Elke was doing, she directed part of her soul power to her Strength, planning to defeat him with a single punch.

Due to this combination, Elke generated a Strength similar to the value of her own Constitution, far exceeding what that young man could take even with all his defenses up.

Pow!

When Elke appeared at his side and kicked him in the stomach, Erich felt extreme pain and then collapsed, with some of his organs already crushed!

Meanwhile, his body flew off the fighting platform, signaling the end of the match.
