BXBX NOVEL Chapter 352 Defection Of A Hidden Clan From Its Founder's Oath
Amid the gazes of the other participants, Izora landed on the platform.
"Instructor Crescent." The two substitutes greeted her. She had worked as a combat instructor at Light Academy during the last year. So, the students knew her.
"Instructor Aimee," She nodded to the other instructor and further said that they were fine. So, there\'s nothing to worry about.
Aimee was also a peak-rank-6 expert. So, her senses weren\'t that poor. She nodded, "I know. But, it was quite humiliating to be defeated like this."
"Then, would you like your kids to be killed, instead?" A voice was heard from the side.
Both of the ladies turned their heads to find the representative head of the Team Unknown who stepped inside the barrier while his teammates are returning.
"Karna…" Izora called out his name.
"It\'s been a while, Ms. Crescent." The charming young man greeted her with a smile.
He looked around the same age as the other seven members of Team Unknown but he is already an Exalt realm expert. Considering he was only 20 years old, one can consider him a peerless genius and place him in the same category as Azzy.
"I never expected that your clan is interested in the world league," Izora said to him, almost ignoring the Light Team.
"Well, we no longer wish to stay hidden," Karna replied without hiding the truth.
Izora\'s facial expression changed as expected. Furrowing her brows, she warned, "You should be careful of your words, young lord Karna. Saying wrong words at the wrong time will only bring disaster."
Karna didn\'t take her words seriously. "Look, Ms. Crescent, I\'m thankful that you saved me in the past but that doesn\'t mean that you can think your clan can dictate the terms. Whatever it is, we will…"
The heir to the Kuru clan, one of the nine hidden clans, Karna wanted to relay this matter to the death clan through Izora in advance to pay back the favor. But, he chose the wrong place to do so. The Proctor, who was patiently waiting for them to clear the field, had interrupted them.
"Excuse me, the two of you can leave and chat elsewhere. There are a lot of matches left." Captain Harold is weaker than both of them but at present, he was representing the world\'s strongest organization and has the highest authority in Arena-B. He won\'t be afraid of anyone under Supreme Realm.
As he looked at them calmly, Izora and Karna glanced at him for a second before leaving the field. Izora then helped with transporting the unconscious students of Light Academy.
Meanwhile, Azzy was listening to the Reaper.
"You were told about the history of creation but your future self didn\'t tell you about the celestial weapons. Just like the gods, cosmic entities, and the cosmic gems, the celestial weapons are also born from the creation.
Whether it is Vajra, Agatha, or this Gandiva, all of them are born in the form of weapons with spirits intact. Some of them are acquired by the gods, some are lost in the cosmos, and some weapons became Arcana spirits either by their free will or by force.
The wielders of such weapons are destined to become demigods. But from there, they can either become gods and dominate the realms or turn to dust and reincarnate.
You have to remember one thing though. People like you can only become friends or enemies. There\'s no neutral region there. If this wielder of Gandiva isn\'t your ally, then, you can only treat him as an enemy because he will do so…" The Reaper knew that Azzy had already passed the stage where he will take his words for granted.
If he is such a person, then, the Reaper wouldn\'t have to resort to manipulation at all. So, all he was hoping was that Azzy remembers his warnings so that it will become easier for him to make the right decision in the future.
"I understand." Just like the Reaper expected, Azzy didn\'t take this matter seriously and quietly stared at the members of Team Unknown, especially at their captain. In the future, if they turned out to be the opponents, Azzy knew that he will have to substitute for either Calder or Gideon.
Since Captain Ashoka knew how to control the natural energy, Azzy felt the need to watch all of his matches but he knew that he couldn\'t. So, he asked Gideon to record Team Unknown\'s matches through the camcorder.
Video recording is allowed and there are a few instructors who are doing that already. Izora was too proud to do that. So, he cannot ask her.
Once Gideon promised him, Azzy relaxed a bit.
The matches continued until the evening. Twilight\'s second match was against Team Andromeda, which is basically a weak team with the strongest one barely reaching high-rank-5. The rest were either low-rank-5 or mid-rank-5.
This time, instead of sending everyone outside, Louis used them to send away only three of their strongest while the rest of the two ended up fighting. The result was naturally in Twilight\'s hands.
Many felt that the tactic was cowardly to use on such a weak team. But, Claire could care anything about their feelings. Since Louis had already shown his special ability, she decided to make him the star of the team and let everyone underestimate the rest of the team.
By the end of day-1, the group rankings are as follows.
<strong>Group-3: Matches/Won/Draw/Lost/Points</strong>
Rank 01 – Twilight: 2/2/0/0/4
Rank 02 – Dragon Riders: 2/1/1/0/3
Rank 03 – Westside: 2/1/0/1/2
Rank 04 – Redwings: 2/0/1/0/1
Rank 05 – Andromeda: 2/0/0/2/0

In the evening, everyone returned to the hotel. Since it is only preliminaries and there are six matches to go, they didn\'t celebrate much and just spent the time resting or preparing skill cards.
The next day morning, Azzy and Leah departed from the hotel, making their way toward the portal point. They were followed by six knights of Camelot.
From there, they were teleported to the Central City of Arcana World. It is where the senior division matches are taking place.
After traveling on a rental horse carriage for nearly 70 minutes due to the restriction on flying, both of them reached the entrance gate of the Heavenly Academy, the oldest and the largest campus in both worlds. On the way, Azzy really missed the modern vehicle as he stared at the city with ancient architecture and horse carriages.
Despite the fact that the academy is as big as a town, it has only two official entrances, a northern entrance, and a southern entrance. People can infiltrate the academy through other places like the mountains or the woods but security guards will usually patrol around and one must be careful to not get caught.
If one goes through the northern entrance, they would reach the grounds and academic buildings. And the south leads to the dormitories, Arenas, Auction house, gardens, etc…
Azzy and Leah took the southern gate. After all, they didn\'t have the time or mood to tour around.
Compared to the junior division, the senior division\'s security arrangements were rather tight.
As the academy management had instructed the guards to only allow the participants through the southern gate, a team was stationed there, where they will check the battle passes.
