I lost my Copy System and awakened a Plundering System - Chapter 180

Chapter 180: Academy Contest: Third Round Begins

The second selection had successfully ended, with 20 academies qualifying for the next round. All those from the academy, including those who had been eliminated, could still participate.

This round wasn’t about who got eliminated but rather about points. Only the top 20 academies with the most points could participate in the next selection.

This explanation sent a wave of shock through the students—none of this had been explained before. Due to their pursuit of the treasure when they saw the meteor, they had forgotten about the point system, focusing instead on eliminating those who stood in their way.

When most of the students heard this, especially those who had fought hard to qualify for the next selection, they felt like they had been played by the rules.

However, it was later explained that only those academies with one or two remaining participants could allow their eliminated students to participate in the third selection. Additionally, only two of the eliminated students could be reinstated.

Top 20 Academies and Their Qualified Students:

Royal Academy – 17

Luminari Academy – 14

Phoenix Academy – 12

Waves Academy – 11

Obsidian Academy – 10

Haven Academy – 7

Aurora Academy – 10

Claw Academy – 2

Arcane Academy – 5

Crystal Academy – 5

Ashwood Academy – 8

Silver Mist Academy – 6

Brookstone Academy – 5

Stonebridge Academy – 6

Emberdale Academy – 4

Starwood Academy – 7

Galvia Academy – 1

Rosethorn Academy – 3

Cerberus Academy – 4

Devon Academy – 3

This was the total number of academies that qualified for this round, with a total of 140 students advancing to the next selection.

Each number represents how many students from each academy qualified for the second selection.

Surprisingly, at Luminari Academy, nine out of the ten first-year participants who entered the competition all qualified for the next selection. This shocked the senior students and left them feeling moody.

Only five of them had qualified.

Among the qualifiers were Draco, Rose, Adrianna, Champs, Blum, Ming, Sharon, the Bow and Arrow girl, and Slyph.

They had all made it to the next selection, making Draco smile. As expected of God’s heirs—all of them here were God’s heirs, and none had failed their inheritance.

“The third selection will determine the top five academies, and the battles will be three-man fights,” Gratt explained.

“Each academy will select its top three strongest participants. I advise you to choose wisely because there will be no second chances.”

A large screen appeared behind him, displaying two spinning roulette wheels.

“This will determine which academies will battle against each other.”

“The remaining twenty academies will face off, leaving ten winners and ten losers. This will determine the top ten academies.”

As Gratt explained, the students who had qualified clenched their fists in determination. This was their chance to make their academy known.

Draco’s expression remained neutral. To him, this was just another stepping stone to his rising popularity.

He thought he could kill a bird with one stone—never expecting that he would have the chance to kill three birds with a single stone.

He had never expected to locate the treasure where luck had guided him. As for the remaining two…

He never expected there would be progress in three of this mission, no, four of them

Mission 4: Be the winner of the academy contest.

Rewards: Unknown (depends on the rate of completion)

Penalty: Reduction of levels (-3)

He would be able to complete all four of them. Even the fourth one was to be expected, but for the third—and especially the first—he hadn’t expected this.

For the second mission, he had awakened the Vampire Demon, followed by the Charm Demon, then the Shadow Demon. It seemed that because he hadn’t awakened the Werewolf Demon yet, the system didn’t show it.

The locations of the Undead Demon and the Phoenix Demon had been found. The Undead Demon’s location was within Calonia, and surprisingly, it seemed that he knew about Draco’s existence.

As for the Phoenix Demon, she was on an entirely different planet. Draco couldn’t connect to her—he would have to leave Calonia and search for her.

Even though the second mission might not be completed during this contest, he had an experimental plan to spread his influence and terror to Cerulean.

At the mention of his name, everyone would look on in terror.

Meanwhile, at Royal Academy, their minds had calmed down. Seeing that none of the students had entered the golden palace, their hearts dripped with happiness.

The treasures were all still there—this was their domain.

But what they didn’t know was that someone had already entered, taken all the treasures, and that what they were seeing was merely a projection.

If they had known, they would have cursed that person a million times. Of course, that moment was coming.

“Fian should be able to eliminate this young man called Simeon. We have to erase our shame from his attempt to kill our young master.”

“During the second selection, they didn’t meet, and he wasn’t able to use his weapon. If they face each other in this selection, he will be able to defeat him.”

At the Night Clan’s area, they were looking at Draco with cold eyes, unable to wait to eliminate him from the face of the earth.

Meanwhile, at Luminari Academy, everyone was happy—especially Tera. Because of Draco, he had been able to gain a lot of treasures.

Alya, Ivy, Clara, Jane, and the teachers all watched with smiles.

“Let’s bet on who will win the academy contest. Anything lower than an Earth-ranked treasure isn’t allowed.” Ken said.

The other four top academies joined in, and those who were confident in their victory began to place bets on who would win the competition.

But the competition was focused on the top five academies. They had held this ranking for years. Additionally, the other four top academies wanted to drag down Royal Academy, which was in first place and known as the strongest and best academy.

Finally, the third selection of the academy contest had begun. The spinning roulette started to spin.

HAVEN ACADEMY VS. CLAW ACADEMY.

This was the first battle of the third selection. Haven Academy had seven students, and Claw Academy had only two. However, with Gratt’s permission, they were able to add one of their strongest eliminated students.

Both academies’ students looked at each other—three against three.

“Who do you think will win this selection?” Green asked.

“The five academies are expected to qualify for the next round of selection, but judging by the power and strength I’m seeing, maybe a miracle could happen,” Red replied.

“Yes, the younger generation is showing strength equal to the older ones. We might be in for some surprises in this selection.”

Their words hyped up the crowd. Everyone was eager for the match.

Both teams locked eyes as they clashed…
