Chapter 73 Champions League Rules And Rewards



"As we are going to host the Champions League, the summer holidays will be reduced from six weeks to two weeks. Those who have a problem with it can ask the principal by themselves.

Also, the upcoming annual tournament format has been changed as well, so that it will be easier for our students to get familiar with it.

Instead of a single knock-out tournament, two more categories will be added.

One is a duo where you can team up with one more student and participate in the tournament. And the other is a team match.

The group match is mandatory for every student to participate. However, you can choose one between singles and duo.

As for the grade battles, they are unchanged. Battles will be conducted prior a week before the tournament. The top two from each grade will battle in the arena on the day of the finals.

Anyway, by the end of next week, submit the names with category preference. You also need to form a team of five and submit them to the Vice-principal during lunch hours.

Any doubts, so far?"

Gideon immediately raised his hand, in place of Azzy.

"Earlier, you mentioned that the group match is mandatory. Does that mean, Azrael will also participate in it? I mean, there's a ban on him. So…"

Everyone looked at him. They wondered why he is asking that question. Was he asking in place of his friend or was he hoping that he won't participate in it?

Azzy also turned his head to look at Gideon.

Rubin then answered by shaking his head, "no. Unless the ban is lifted on him, he can't participate in any tournament. And unless he was able to control his strength, I don't think the principal will lift the ban on him."

Upon hearing their teacher, some of them sighed in relief while the others felt its pity that their grade won't stand out.

"Okay, let's talk about the upcoming Champions League. I know all of you know about it but let me explain the details.

Champions league is the tournament conducted by WAMO (World Arcana Master organization), the same organization that conducts the international tournaments, the most famous being the world league.

The league was divided into two types.

One is the junior league, where the students below 15 will participate. The senior league is for the students who are below 100 years.

Our academy is selected for junior league, which is conducted every year while the senior league is conducted every five years.

Whenever they coincide, the tournament will be conducted in the academies with both beginner and advanced programs like Dragon Academy, Phoenix Academy, Sun Academy, etc…

Now, coming to our tournament, just like its name, the Champions League is a tournament where only the Champions are allowed to participate. However, the champion here doesn't refer to a single person.

It refers to the academy where the champion of the national tournament is from. This year, it was decided that our Northern Qudour will get the opportunity to host the tournament.

And our top student, Leonard Light, gave us this opportunity by becoming the winner.

As a host nation, we get twenty slots for the tournament out of which, ten of them were given solely to our academy. We were given 4 single slots, 4 duo slots, and 2 team slots.

And based on your performance in the annual tournament, the academy will decide them.

Unless there isn't an accident on the midway, you can safely assume that those who reach semi-finals in duo and single categories will be selected. As for the group, those that reach finals will be selected."

Gideon once again raised his hand.

"Yes." The teacher gestured to him to proceed.

Gideon then asked, "what if someone from the team that made it to the finals, also made it to the semifinals in another category?"

Rubin shrugged his shoulders, "then, they just have to pick a category and the void will be filled by others. Not a big deal."

A student named Russell raised his hand and asked, "Teacher, what about the rewards?"

"Good question." Rubin smiled as he answered, "This is the biggest change, comparing to the past years. For the annual tournament, the winner will not only receive 5 million credits but also a gold-grade flying card, gold-grade storage card, and a defensive armor that can withstand a full-powered attack of a platinum-grade beast with peak-rank-5 soul.

The runner-up will receive 2 million credits, a gold grade item card of his choice, and a unique 5-star skill card.

The third place will receive 1 million credits and a gold grade item card of his choice.

Fourth to tenth places will receive 100 thousand credits and a random gold grade item.

​ After that, everyone will receive some rewards, according to their ranks.

But, the biggest reward of all is the tournament winner gets a one-on-one tutoring session with the Grand Prince Aegis Light, a mid-rank-eight expert. It is something that's invaluable for all of you. So, don't lose this opportunity."

As the students were excited about the rewards that increased tremendously from the previous year, Rubin continued, "of course, these are for the senior division. For the junior and the elementary divisions, the rewards will be different but it doesn't matter to you guys.

Anyway, coming to the Champions League, all the 40 contestants from each category will be divided into eight groups with five in each.

As a host nation, we also have the advantage of choosing a specific group for each contestant. Of course, only eight spots can be chosen. The remaining will be randomly placed.

Each contestant will participate in four battles and the top contestant from each group will go to the Quarterfinals. Then, semi-finals and at last, finals.

The winners from each category will receive the same reward as the world league winner.

A hundred million credits; an extremely rare platinum grade item card of his/her choice; the knowledge of a unique skill card creation taught by a renowned card creator; a high-grade elemental crystal of his/her choice; a customized item forged by a renowned grandmaster that will amplify one's strength; private tutoring session with rank-9 experts.
