Jake was currently being carried to the clinic and when he got there, he was laid on the bed while nurse Hayley quickly tended to him.

    ''Darn it! With this tournament of a thing, I just got assigned more work and it''s really exhausting.'' Hayley thought as she was now Checking up on Jake and patching up his injuries.

    Hayley rubbed her hands hard and then a soft yellow glow emitted from her hands as she placed it on Jake''s body checking everywhere for any internal injuries.

    ''I see, he somewhat depleted his Qi, I can fix that.'' Hayley thought as she kept on using her glowing hands on Jake. ''All I have to do is to input a little bit of my own Qi to help his own Qi regulate and heal himself up.''

    Hayley closed her eyes as she concentrated hard and then looking into Jake''s body, she could see a type of yellow aura going into Jake''s body and moving it around trying to get his own Qi to work.

    After a few moments, Hayley removed her hands from Jake''s body then she wiped the sweat off her face.

    "ooff. I''m already running low on Qi with the way things are going. Well the good thing is that he will be alright in an hour or so." Hayley said as she went to check up on the next student and that was when the door swung open and some students walked into the room.

    Looking at them, Hayley recognized them as Jake''s friends then she directed them to where Jake is and she left them be to go check up on the next student.

    Sitting down, Kate held Jake''s hands and was currently rubbing it back and forth.

    "I can''t believe Jake has grown so much stronger that he managed to get a draw between him and Harry." Peter said. "It shouldn''t be wrong to say he is currently stronger than me."

    "Yeah, as much as I hate to admit it, Jake is also stronger than me." Sophia said.

    "So who''s having a match next?" Jack asked.

    "I think it''s Vynn." Cindy said.

    "Yeah, the match is gonna start anytime soon." Vynn said nervously.

    "Don''t worry, there''s no pressure on you. Just do your best besides you''re also strong you managed to rank up from rank 200 to 10 in a year. That in itself is a testament of how strong you have become." Peter said trying to calm Vynn down.

    "Exactly, you are no more the weak Vynn that we once knew." Sophia said. "In fact, none of us are as weak as we were when we got to this academy so I want you to go out there and show them that even if we are a year below them, we are not to be trifled with."

    "Thanks for the word of encouragement guys, I promise to try my best." Vynn smiled. "And I think that Jake has already proved to them that we aren''t so weak."

    "That''s right, Jake certainly proved that we are also a strong force in his own way by defeating the academy''s rank 3." Kate said.

    Vynn didn''t waste any time as he quickly did a thrust towards Dan''s stomach but he still managed to twist his body sideways but the spear managed to make a cut on his cheeks drawing blood.

    Dan managed to get up then he charged right at Vynn and swung his spear very quickly as if he was holding onto a staff and it hit Vynn across the face sending him tumbling backwards from the force of the hit.

    Dan quickly followed up with another strike but this time, it was a thrust to Vynn''s stomach that went in deep drawing blood.

    "You guys made a mistake thinking you could win against us." Dan said still with the spear In Vynn''s body.

    Vynn''s friends at the back were now worried for him seeing the critical hit that landed in his stomach.

    "Isn''t this going too far?" Peter said.

    "Where are the Generals? Why aren''t they stopping that crazy third year?" Cindy shouted.

    The Generals had seen the strike that Dan wanted to make but they didn''t think it was going to be fatal or critical so they hadn''t moved in like they usually would before the fight got out of hands.

    Meanwhile, Dan just pulled out his spear from Vynn''s body allowing him to fall on the ground on his knees. His eyes were about to close.

    ''I''m still so weak even after this past year.'' Vynn thought. ''I just failed my friends that believed In me. Will I ever be able to catch up with them?''

    Vynn managed to muster enough strength and he shot another Qi shard into the injury he made on Dan''s leg which made him fall on his knees in pain.

    Now, Dan was kneeling in front of Vynn who because of his resolve of not wanting to disappoint his friends that believed in him, managed to whack Dan hard with all the strength he could muster in his current condition.

    But Dan just used his hand to block the strike and was about to hit Vynn again when he stopped moving and then, Dan dropped on the floor limply and wasn''t moving.

    Everyone in the crowd were confused by this, they could all see that Dan managed to block the hit so he couldn''t have been that hurt and suddenly, he was on the floor not moving.

    Vynn was the most shocked out of everyone. Looking closely, Vynn could see that Dan was dead not even a single heartbeat was heard from his body.

    Vynn used his Qi to strengthen his cells more and sealed the injury made in his stomach a little bit then he moved closer to Dan and saw what killed him.

    Vynn saw something like a long nail in his head. It only took a second for it to click in Vynn''s head and he quickly looked up to inform the Generals but it was too late for chaos had erupted among the crowd.

    Vynn turned to look at his friends who were confused by why the crowd were now fighting against each other all of a sudden. Then Vynn cupped his hands around his mouth and shouted at his friends.

    "Run guys! Save yourselves, we are being attacked by werewolves!"
