Mixed Blessing System

Chapter 275 Unexpected Preliminary Results!

The moment the white ray came from Lothur's ball, it lit up the surroundings as it passed through Eugen's shield as if it were made of paper.

Due to the speed of the attack and the fact that this ray was highly opposed to the nature of the type of defense used by Eugen, his shield showed no resistance.

Eugen had inscribed a code that turned his shield into something fragile against the electric blow created by Lothur's rules, which could not withstand such a thing and turned to dust in a fraction of a second after his attack.

With that, almost instantly after this blow that destroyed his blue shield, Eugen could barely react to it when the lightning in question penetrated his body.

Such a thing passed through every part of his body, heading towards his feet, and in a final moment, it left his body to penetrate the soil.

But when all this happened in a short time of milliseconds, Eugen's body had already been considerably damaged!

Part of his organs melted from the electric current that hit him, while a horrifying expression appeared on his face when he fell to the ground, already unconscious.

His eyes were open to shock everyone, but there was no sign of consciousness in them, scaring all the people in the surroundings of that area.

"What? How can it be?"

"Oh, mine!"

"That..."

Several people rose from their seats, shocked by the extreme development of Lothur and Eugen's battle. But that was not just because of how this individual had gone down but also because of young Ritter's versatility in creating different kinds of offensive formations.

It was not easy for a young formations master to have a voluminous enough repertoire of creations to have several cards up his sleeve. But Lothur had presented two completely different types of formations on this platform, something remarkable for anyone competing there!

And with that, the Frost family's rivals and those who hated Lothur soon felt that the victory against Hartmut had not been influenced by luck.

Lothur was a talented formations master, and the Frost family had fooled them all.

"Damn!"

"That bastard is magnificent!"

"The Frost family didn't come to this competition unprepared... It looks like we will have some surprises in this competition."

"Hehe, that's better!"

People began to discuss these matters as the match referee announced the result. "Lothur Ritter, representing the Frost family, wins his second round and moves on to the next round of the competition!"

"Add another point to the Frost family!"

After that man's words, the ranking again changed, with one more point added to Lothur's wife's family.

[... 14ª. Frost family: 08...]

'Oh? This family has already moved up a few positions, huh?' Lothur saw that as he came down from the stage amid the stares of several people in the surrounding area, considering the result of this organization.

The Frost family had 14 competitors in this Province Conference, and some had matches in the morning, as in his and Annaliese's case. So, since matches were going on simultaneously, some of the hopefuls from this family had already scored some points.

The Frost family was in decline, but it was not weak!

Since Aiken and Mabel knew perfectly well that many enemies would act against them, they had plans to protect themselves from enemy movements.

So when Lothur arrived at Viktoria and Annaliese's side, they celebrated with him for his excellent performance and their family's improved position.

"What are we going to do now?" Lothur asked the two, ignoring the comments about him in the surrounding area.

"Let's go to my test site," Annaliese commented in animation. "In less than 30 minutes, it will be my turn to go up to the combat stage, so we'd better head there now."

"Hmm, I still have time until my time, which coincides with yours..." Viktoria said as she looked at Lothur. "Then let's go."

As they left, Lina watched them from afar, sensing that Lothur would have the same results in the tailoring competition. 'What should I do? Maybe take a look at him, even though that is Amelie's responsibility?'

At the same time, the people from the Frost family sent by Aiken left from there, heading towards where the family leaders should be to communicate with them about Lothur.

The leaders of the organizations participating in the Province Conference did not keep up with the small matches of the first few days of the ordeal. There were too many contests and few people to follow each of their family's matches.

Hence, apart from the collective matches of each day and the finals, they only followed the ranking results from their VIP areas in this coliseum.

Each family had a place for their leaders to follow the competition, discuss strategies, and even alliances with other families participating in the event.

The Province Conference served to rank the local organizations, but alliances also influenced the weight of organizations!

So, one family could join forces with another and work as a team to make life difficult for their opponents or even secure their positions without relying solely on individual results.

Because of this, during the tests where the young people in these organizations were giving their best, their leaders would follow the results and negotiate among themselves.

That was happening at this very moment at various points in that coliseum, where the Frost family core was watching the results of their youths with surprise.

? ...

"Unbelievable! We're already in 14th position!" One of the members of that family in the area designated for House Frost exclaimed after seeing the point secured by Lothur raise the position of that organization.

"Things are going better than I had thought! We are already in a higher position than when we finished the last edition, even considering that we are only on the first day."

"Really! It seems that our young people are performing above expectations..."

Most of the people in that place were celebrating the positive start of this family at this event, genuinely happy and hopeful about these preliminary results.

The Province Conference had been going on for a long time, so these people knew that having a good start was very important. After all, this competition was a knockout competition. That is, doing well on the first day meant more competitors on the second day, which meant more points for the family!

Since 75% of the competitors would be eliminated on this first day, the preliminary result so far was almost like a guarantee for this family that they would not lose their possessions!

And because of this, those who wished for the Frost family's downfall in this event were negatively shocked by it all.

'What's going on?' Aiken's uncle, Simon, thought to himself as he saw the rankings, not believing these preliminary results. 'Where did those points come from? I know we could get 4 points in those matches scheduled for this period of the day, but where did those other 4 come from?'

Unfortunately, this man was not counting on Lothur's result, nor on another factor that helped the Frost family, luck and perhaps the help of some of this young man's friends!

If the family had made 5 points so far, he would not have been surprised by such a result. But 8 was well above what he expected, so he could not help but feel strange seeing his plans going down the drain.

Thus, he ignored the people celebrating in that place and quickly looked for someone to go see what was going on!
