Chapter 627 Trapped In the Maze

"Hey, are you really going to waste your time fighting me?" Beret asked, not daring to turn his back, worried that they would lunge at him. Sure, he was faster than most and had a number of techniques to avoid getting hit. But when someone burst with a large amount of Qi and lunged, they would catch up with someone who was just running. In order to avoid the hit, he needed to see what was coming at him.

However, there was still a chance with his legs he could outrun them, but would running away really be how someone from the Demonic Faction would fight in this?

Right now, Beret didn\'t like his chances against two students that he assumed would be on the same level.

\'I\'m not cocky like the others… although I do think if I were to fight these two I would still be able to win, what state would I be in after? If I take these two out then that just gives the Dark Faction a chance to win this, and I don\'t have much confidence in my teammate either,\' Beret thought.

In the end, rather than running away, he thought he could use his mouth to convince them to go their separate ways.

"With the two of you, you should be catching these Charging Rats. Sure, you were lucky this time, but you should know these things are fast and you\'ll need the two of you. If you waste time fighting me, then that will just mean the Dark Faction is going to win this thing. So let\'s just go our separate ways."

There was an uneasy smile that Beret could see on the two faces. It was quite clear that they weren\'t taking his words seriously.

"With the two of us, we will be able to deal with you quickly and with minor injuries, and then we will just continue going on to the others. Right now, the Dark Faction collecting crystals only goes in our favor, the more crystals they collect, then that\'s just more for us to take from them in the end," Charlotte said.

Beret spread his legs and had his hand by the dagger that was by his side, ready to fight or defend himself.

"Two against one, I thought the Light Faction was all about fairness, wouldn\'t a one-on-one fight be fair?"

"Yes, if this was a duel," Harmon commented. "But the rules have been set out for this event, and we are doing everything within the rules, so there is nothing unfair about this."

It was quite clear at that point that his words weren\'t going to work. He drew out his dagger in front of his face, and then jumped, kicking off the wall, but he had moved backward.

Immediately he turned around and started to run through the maze, getting a head start jump on the others.

"What the heck, is this the frightening Demonic Faction? They call themselves that because they are meant to be demons, and yet he runs away in this situation!"

The crowd was jesting, laughing at the student\'s decision. They were hoping that they were about to see a fight.

In the Demonic Faction\'s base, Sha Mo grunted.

"Your pupil is bringing shame on the entire Demonic Faction! He should have fought the two head-on, and even if he died, taken the two with him!" Sha Mo claimed.

"The Demonic Faction just needs to prove that we are the strongest, that we have strength," Lince answered. "Our clan\'s work, because of our legs and foot techniques, has managed to stop trouble for the Demonic Faction. In your eyes, we might be the shame of the Demonic Faction, but we see our position as a necessity."

The two Light Faction students were finding it hard to keep up with Beret as he was indeed fast, but eventually, the maze didn\'t work out well for Beret, because once he had taken a turn, up ahead, there was a dead end, and only a wall ahead. When turning around, he could see the two students fitting into the narrow hallway, blocking any way for him to exit.

"Do you really think that I\'m going to be so easy to defeat!" Beret shouted.

Immediately, Charlotte dashed forward with her rapier and condensed her Qi to a single point, swirling her feet. Beret managed to avoid the attack and moved forward.

His footwork was impressive indeed, but in that very same spot that he had avoided the attack, Harmon had thrusted his rapier as well. Lifting up his dagger, Beret blocked the attack, but the Qi was powerful, sending him back.

Right after, Charlotte and Harmon continued a number of attacks. Beret avoided them using the space behind him, while blocking attacks as he could, but he could feel his hands getting numb.

\'Their teamwork is amazing; they\'re working in sync to the point where I can\'t even find an opening.\'

Just like when the Light Faction was fighting against the beast, the two of them were speeding up in their attacks as well. Beret was a moment too late, and he had been stabbed with the rapier. It only went an inch into his body before he moved, but blood was drawn.

\'These hallways, it\'s like they were set up for them as well. I can\'t use my footwork effectively because there\'s nowhere to move, and nowhere for me to run.\'

Beret continued, getting pierced in his stomach, his chest, on his arms. It was getting harder and harder for him to lift up his hands due to the pain, and yet still, they were thrusting their weapons faster than before.

Finally, as Beret continued to lose blood, he felt his back hit up against the wall. One of the rapiers stabbed him in the shoulder, going right through until it hit the wall on the other side.

In his eyes, he could see a glowing bracelet on their wrists. He paid it no attention and instead was wondering if these were his final moments.

\'Crap, after I trained so hard… I just wanted to show I could do something. Everything was against me in this situation. The arena, meeting these two students instead of one!\'

\'I wasn\'t able to do anything on my own… this isn\'t fair… this isn\'t fair… why was it me… why was it me, that had to meet these two… and why did I have to have such a useless partner?\' These were Beret\'s final words of regret.

Harmon, with his rapier, went to thrust his sword right at the head of Beret. The tip was covered in Qi. As it was thrust forward, at the same time, the side of the wall broke and exploded, dust kicking up in the air, and the rocks from the wall hitting both of them.

Both Charlotte and Harmon quickly pulled back slightly in the hallway, coughing up the dust. They looked in front of them, and they could see a figure step out through the side of the wall, which had completely been broken.

"I sensed something disgusting was being used in this area, and it looks like I was right."

In the Demonic Faction viewing area, Lince had a smile on his face as he saw who had appeared on the special mirror screen.

"So, he did listen to my request after all."
