The Uneventful Conclusion to Round Two
"Holly shit!"
Starlight cursed, "Could it be that this father and son are mistaking the Stormfront for Star's wrath?"
"If only that were the case." [Tyke Knight] sighed, "But [Homelander] doesn't even look at her; he's interested in Ryan."
——
"Ryan has taken a liking to Stormfront?" Magneto nearly coughed up blood. "This kid is only 8 years old, are you sure you're not mistaken?"
"Can we call her by her full name, 'Stormfront'?" Katy couldn't take it anymore.
As a student of Xavier's School of Stormfront, she would think of her teacher whenever she heard the word "storm," and her nickname was also Stormfront.
"You're willing to go straight for your heart," the Invisible Woman quipped, "What else can't you tolerate?"
"You're no better," Kate retorted, "Crushing your opponent into mincemeat. I kill because I have the ability, it's the cleanest way, you..."
Although she didn't finish her sentence, her waving finger and disdainful expression said it all.
"This is the most civilized way for me to do it," the Invisible Woman said. "My opponent is Superman. The weapons I conjure and the explosions I create can't hurt him at all. I can only squeeze the air with all my might, along with my opponent inside."
"I wish my force field was the same as Ron's."
"Using a force field to directly digest the opponent?" Katy frowned. "That's cannibalism. Ron's method of injecting Venom into the opponent's body is quite appropriate."
"And then get drenched in 'meat soup'?" Ron said gruffly after taking a shower, having secretly used several ' Scourgify on himself.
"That's because you injected too much Venom," Katy retorted. "It even dissolved the Golden Boy's flesh, which shows the amount that was ejected."
"That's because I was too full," Ron muttered. "The energy I got after digesting his 'flame' was so much that I was about to burst. I could only consume the excess energy by secreting Venom."
"Stop arguing," Magneto said, looking towards the center of the arena. "The second round is about to begin. The next opponent won't be so easy."
In the center of the arena, [Golden Boy], who was participating in the revival match, carbonized all of his opponent's body except for his head, thus winning the revival match.
"Wow, that was fast!" Ron exclaimed. He had just finished showering when [Golden Boy] won the revival match.
"Of course," Ralph said. "He can't wait to be resurrected. No opponent in the resurrection match can withstand his flames; they all crumble at the first touch."
"The list is out." Loki looked at the screen of his sticker phone, which was lit up on the back of his hand. "Me, [Golden Boy]. Ice versus fire?"
"I'm talking to Jordan." Ron's face was grim. Jordan had comforted him earlier, saying he would make sure Jordan died a horrible death if he faced him, and now his words had come true.
"It's me and Mary." Ralph breathed a sigh of relief; thankfully, it wasn't Ron.
As for Mary's blood control and blood explosion abilities, similar to those of the "Head-Smasher," the most essential "snake" corresponding to his "Snake Manipulation" power is his physical body, which can be used to stabilize the state of this "snake" and make it immune to control.
"I am with [The Deep]." Susan's face was very ugly. She was already lacking in offensive power, and now she had encountered such a metal lump.
"Me and Katy." Magneto sighed. There were more than a dozen contestants in the second round, and it just so happened that he was paired with the only Mutants among them.
Katy was also somewhat frustrated. Her ability to travel through time was essentially to transform herself into atomic components and pass through all obstacles. After injecting [Compound V], it even involved the mysterious mental realm, allowing her to merge with space.
It is interfering with oneself, not interfering with other things.
Logically speaking, it shouldn't be limited by the [Biokinetic Field] of a powerful opponent.
However, just as when her abilities were weaker, denser matter could hinder her passage and sometimes even cause her pain, and sudden solidification could injure her.
A living individual, due to its complex ecosystem, is several times more difficult to traverse than matter of the same density.
Not to mention Superman with a [Biokinetic Field].
Although her body has become stronger and her endurance has also increased, even if her abilities are still the same as before, she can now withstand the pain caused by the reaction force when passing through dense matter.
But she was not facing ordinary Superman either.
Instead, it is Magneto is also an S-class being able to connect with the Earth's magnetic field.
The best she can do is remain undefeated by merging with the space.
She felt the list was too chaotic.
Golden Boy shared the same idea as Katy.
He also knew how Iceman Loki's abilities were, and how much they countered him.
It absorbs heat and creates an unscientific, entropy-reversing freezing force.
His ability to create thermonuclear reactions is a perfect counter to his.
To make matters worse, he and [Iceman] were the first pair on the list.
The Golden Boy, who had barely settled into his seat before returning to the field, was utterly speechless.
But when facing his opponent, he transformed into a small, golden statue burning with flames and flew forward.
Faced with the high temperature, Loki's instinct to absorb heat was triggered, and his skin turned blue.
"[Sunspot] and [Iceman]." Katy felt a strong sense of déjà vu; two of her companions possessed similar abilities.
"Loki is really lucky," Ron sighed.
It was too obvious who had the upper hand on the field.
As Golden Boy relentlessly created high-temperature flames to provide Loki with heat and generate more Winter power, Loki continued to grow taller and turn blue, causing the temperature of the entire arena to drop drastically.
The entire area was now covered in heavy snow.
The color of a flame is mainly determined by its temperature; the higher the temperature of the flame, the more bluish and cooler its color tends to be.
The flames on the Golden Boy's body, which were generated at full power and reached the surface temperature of the sun, were no longer yellowish-white, but bluish-green.
But now, visible to the naked eye, the color of the flames on the Golden Boy's body has begun to change, from cyan to yellowish-white, pure white, golden-white, golden-yellow, golden-orange, pure orange, and orange-red.
And finally, a dark red like dried blood.
If it weren't for the electromagnetic shield protecting the entire stadium, the spectators in the stands would probably have turned into ice sculptures like the "Golden Boy" right now.
Click~
[Golden Boy]'s head, protected by the helmet, detached from his body and flew back towards the medical room where [Grim Reaper] was located at the exit.
With a light breath, Loki released the heat that had not yet been fully converted into the power of [Winter], and the ice and snow in the arena melted, falling like rain.
It took a long time for the Golden Boy's body to regenerate; the black solution in the glass jar turned colorless before his body was fully regenerated.
The second round, the second match, was finally able to begin.
The Superman abilities of the students in the Super High School are diverse, including the ability to manipulate water and evaporate water vapor.
So when Ralph stood on the field, the entire field had been completely transformed.
"The match begins."
With the referee's whistle.
Mary on the other side reached out and activated her ability.
How could that be?
To her surprise, she discovered that the blood in the opposing player, Ralph, was not under her control.
Ralph, whose lower body transforms into a snake tail, activates his ability.
His vision began to distort, and countless hissing sounds rang in his ears.
He found the snake that belonged to the atmosphere.
The atmosphere began to compress the black girl opposite.
Bang!
Mary, who had previously turned others into flesh bombs, has now become the bomb herself.
"Ugh~" Even sitting in the stands, Ron almost threw up.
Mary had never lost before, which means her body was still original.
The contents of the stomach and intestines were also squeezed out.
Ron is never going to eat curry again.
"[The Spider]! vs. [Two-Face]!"
"By the way, they're a couple."
Hearing the referee's voice, Ron felt even worse. "It's my turn already?"
He looked toward the glass jar, and perhaps because her ability was to control blood, Mary revived very quickly.
He had already taken off his helmet and handed it to Jordan in his male form.
"Does this make you feel any better?" Jordan winked at Ron.
Of course, Ron didn't have X-ray vision and couldn't see it, but because of his familiarity with Jordan, he could tell from the details of Jordan's head tilt that he was blinking.
As for Jordan, judging from Ron's walking posture, he must look terrible right now.
"No." Ron looked at the traces of blood, flesh, and metabolic waste left on the ground by Mary's explosion and almost felt like vomiting again.
"But this is the only way I can deal with you," Jordan said.
This is not just based on feelings between the two.
Strategically speaking, yes.
Ron's greatest strengths are his poison and the Corrosive Field created by his eight Spider Spear.
Only a male body that is indestructible and cannot be breached can withstand this.
The woman's agility was negligible, and the energy cannon, as the output point, was merely providing energy to Ron, just like the [Golden Boy].
Ron saw through Jordan's scheme. "You should just surrender."
If I win, things won't look good in bed tonight.
Losing a match is something I can't stand because of my pride.
It's better to surrender.
"No." Jordan clenched his fist.
The previous foothold was cracked.
Sometimes, strength is equal to speed.
He looked at the fist that appeared in front of him with the sound of the wind.
"Expand your domain." Ron unleashed a green force field, along with eight Spider Spear.
Upon touching the protective shield, feeling as if he had hit cotton, and experiencing a sudden loss of power in his fist upon contact, Jordan quickly transformed into a female form to dodge the eight spider legs that were stabbing towards his limbs.
Then she transformed into a male.
For a time, the sound of metal clashing and clanging filled the air.
But soon, the sound began to become muffled and low.
In contrast, Jordan, whose clothes should have been intact, had a torn collar and a scratch on his chest.
"You should surrender now," Ron said.
In his view, Jordan, whose upper body clothing was already tattered, was no longer suitable to transform into a woman.
There was no time to dodge his eight-legged attack.
With the boy's defense weakened and he able to break through, Jordan had no choice but to Venom.
"No way." Jordan took off his shirt and tied it into the shape of a strapless top.
She was transformed into a woman.
"If a head-on collision doesn't work, then let's play dodgeball."
"You—" Ron was so angry his mouth almost twisted out of shape, especially noticing the looks in the eyes of some spectators in the stands.
Although Lee Jordan's current attire is just normal beachwear, he had seen it before on the beach in Hogsmeade in the Novel Harry world.
However, Ron still found it somewhat unacceptable because the venue was unsuitable.
"Domain Deployment - Venomous Hell!"
The lush green force field began to expand at a visible speed.
"Stop being so childish right now!" the female Jordan complained as she quickly backed away.
She could tell from Ron's anger and dissatisfaction.
To her dismay, even in his anger and dissatisfaction, Ron didn't forget to play the wizarding game.
Playing with it in bed was one thing, but she was also satisfied with that 'Applewood magic wand'.
But now it's happening in front of so many people.
"Mind your own business!" Ron understood Jordan's implication.
This is not that kind of game.
He is a wizard!
Fueled by feelings of shame and anger, the lush green force field quickly enveloped the entire area.
Envelop Jordan inside.
All the spectators in the stands could see was green.
Jordan suddenly got stuck in the mud and couldn't move.
She quickly transformed into a man.
Only then could he barely move.
Ron, whose speed seemed to have increased within the force field, had already appeared in front of her.
"I won."
The Spider Spear pierced the body, which should have been indestructible, and injected Venom.
Jordan's body went limp, and Ron caught him while simultaneously retracting the Spider Spear and Force Field.
Everything was once again exposed to the spectators in the stands.
Ron picked up Jordan, who was clearly poisoned, and carried him toward the transparent medical room.
[Golden Boy], whose head was left after the Venom melted: Are you targeting me? Jordan isn't even dead, he's just unable to move.
"[Elongated Man] vs. [The Polarity Man]!"
"."
"Andre Anderson, the second-generation 'The Polarity Man,' who inherited the name of the former the Seven, has won this duel!"
"."
"[Strong Spider] vs [The Thing] "
"."
"In just 10 seconds! Peter Parker, the Strong Spider, has won!"
"The Invisible Woman vs. The Deep!"
"."
"The two are at an impasse; the Invisible Woman cannot harm the Deep, and the Deep cannot touch the Invisible Woman."
As the referee said, things are exactly as they are now.
Susan was very troubled.
Everything went just as she had predicted.
The advantage is that she almost never needs to dodge the punches of [The Deep], which is Sam.
Sam is a typical physical enhancement type of ability user, but his defense and strength are extremely high, with explosive stats.
Her force field can not only make her invisible, but also act as a shield, and the shield is the kind that is slippery and difficult to apply pressure to.
In Ron's words, it's like—Domain Expansion: Slippery Hell!
If Sam only uses his fists, Susan can simply sit there and watch him throw punches, then throw her own fists elsewhere.
Only Sam uses [Biokinetic Field] can his fists clash head-on with the shield constructed by Susan's force field.
However, Sam's strength was not his forte. Even after injecting [Compound V], he was still at the A-level, which was no match for his S-level defense.
So now we're stuck in a stalemate where we both stare at each other.
"After discussion by the referee team, the match was ruled a draw, and both players will advance to the third round."
"Next up is Magneto vs. Shadowcat."
"I believe they will definitely bring you a wonderful match."
Ten minutes later.
"Draw."
The passion deliberately evoked in the referee's words has been completely extinguished.
After Magneto and Shadowcat's equally awkward duel where neither could hit the other.
The final match of the second round ended uneventfully.
The third round was expected to have only 7 players advance, but 9 players ultimately made it.
