My Soul card is a Reaper
Chapter 348 A Team With Abnormalities

<strong>Oct 1st, 1994;</strong>

Just like every year, Silver city is seeing an influx of thousands of participants and hundreds of thousands of tourists.

Police are patrolling everywhere. General and Special Forces are also deployed by the organization to make sure no one takes advantage of this situation and causes chaos within the city.

At around morning 6, Team Twilight without Azzy left the hotel and managed to reach the Central Academy, which is hosting the league's junior division matches.

As the traffic police department is working their best to make sure the roads and skies stay clear, Claire and others managed to reach the place in just 15 minutes.

They stepped down from their rented bus and walked towards the entrance. A huge translucent barrier was placed around the academy that blocks the entries of rank-4 and lower.

Having 100,000 SP (soul power) is the minimum qualification to enter the world league. So, the ones with lower soul power could only either return in disappointment or temporarily raise their soul power by a berserk pill.

There were only two guards placed outside the entrance but there was literally no commotion. Everyone is behaving as they should and enter the barrier in silence.

Under Izora's lead, Team Twilight walked into the barrier. With the unique looks of Louis and Estella, the young age of everyone, the high soul power of Izora, Estella, and Claire, and everyone wearing school uniform while Izora wearing a suit and shades, the team had indeed stolen the attention of the people nearby the entrance.

As they left everyone's sight, one of the guards spoke to his colleague, "I wonder which school that was. A while ago, some people wore the same uniform."

"World league attracts all types of talents. It is unsurprising…" The other colleague commented in response while looking straight.

Meanwhile, Team Twilight found several wall barriers placed on the school grounds with a fixed gap between each. Those gaps were filled by the teams and the individuals as they stand in line, slowly moving forward.

At the end of the line, there is a 30ft-large machine, which is describing the age, soul power, potential, and number of Arcana of the individual who stands on the platform connected to it.

A lot of people weren't comfortable in revealing their potential and Arcana but the organization had no choice because they had to make sure the survival of high potential kids and also not to let match up two opponents who are in different realms.

Of course, there will be VIPs and top scouts attending the league. So, it is a good opportunity for the kids to showcase their skills and get an offer from a top Arcana Academy or organization without going through any test.

Izora led the team of six to the side and waited there without joining the line.

For 20 minutes, several individuals are seen entering the barrier and glancing at the team before leaving to join the line. Because of Izora's sharp stare, none dared to come toward them.

But, the leader of a team, full of female members, took the initiative to greet them.

"Hello," Izora greeted back coldly as if she was indicating to not bother them.

But, the woman didn't mind it and said as she looked at the rest, commenting, "I don't see that monstrous genius boy, and instead, there were a couple of new faces. Oh, even a rank-6? It looks like Aclein Academy had upgraded the strength."

"Look at their uniform and the logo, Miss," Izora looked annoyed as she pointed at everyone. "Aclein Academy no longer exists. We are a part of Eternal Institutions. And who are you, by the way?"

It was only then the woman noticed Izora and felt that she was familiar. She sensed her soul power. In an instant, her facial expression became stiff for a moment but she managed to keep her cool and replied, "I'm Carmella Hearth, an instructor at Phoenix Academy. We fought you in the semifinals and got defeated but this time, these are our representatives."

One of the seven females, who were standing behind her in silence, the youngest one stepped forward, "It's been a while, Ms. Leveret. I hope your archery skills improved by now."

Estella and Louis looked at the 11-yr-old Iphi, who was unnecessarily trying to provoke Mia. They wondered who she might be.

Meanwhile, Mia calmly countered, "it looked like you hurriedly raised your soul power. You should be careful about damaging your soul orb. If you don't stabilize your realm, you will harm yourself and others."

"You don't need to worry about her, Ms. Leveret. She's a true daughter of heaven. You should worry about yourself." The captain of their team also meddled in their argument. 18-year-old Tiara is a student pursuing the advanced studies program and currently leading Team Phoenix. She wasn't a warmhearted person to act nice to the team that humiliated them.

Claire and the others, especially Izora furrowed their brows. Just as this instructor was about to say something, Estella let out a snort, "as if we would worry about a bunch of losers."

Everyone stared at her. Members of Team Phoenix also frowned. This time, even Claire supported Estella's statement with her silence. Maybe, she would have said something but even Carmella wasn't on the team. Except for Iphi who was just sore in the eye, no one from the previous team they fought was in this new team. All six of them are college students.

"You… what did you say? Say it again…" Tiara clenched her fist in anger.

Izora, who was already in a bad mood because of Azzy, went a step ahead and spoke rudely to them, "if you are done with yapping, all of you can get lost for registration."

"I guess winning the Champions league made you look down on others." Carmella was naturally offended by Izora's remark. "No matter… since you are already here, very soon, you will realize how much of a frog in the well you are."

"Let's go, girls…" Carmella walked away while regretting greeting them. At the same time, her determination to win increased greatly.

As they walked away from them, joining the line, Estella commented, "Excluding that instructor, the strongest is only mid-rank-6 and that woman is thinking of us as some frogs in well."

"I wonder where Luci had gone," Claire wondered in the meantime.

The team waited for another ten minutes before Azzy and Leah arrived together. The reception Leah received is far better than what Team Phoenix faced earlier. Although Izora was indifferent to her, Estella, who thought of her as an equal, conversed with her.

Leah, being a well-mannered girl, responded accordingly. All of them then joined the line.

After about 30 minutes of slowly advancing forward, Team Twilight got their turn. Azzy found some competitors stayed behind, on the side, probably to gauge their opponent's strength or for curiosity.

Azzy found three people sitting at a table.

Izora first registered the team of seven by showing the students' IDs to the third person.

As the Captain, Claire was the first to stand on the platform to verify her qualification. As soon as the platform lit up, she felt an electrifying jolt all over her body for a second before her details were displayed on the screen.

Age: 16

Soul power: 942,655

Arcana: 1

Element: Light (????)

Qualified: Yes

"What is the meaning of that?" The panel members and the other spectators were a little bit confused to see question marks beside her element. It means that even the most sophisticated tech of humanity has failed to identify Claire's element and is only suspecting that it is light.

Only Azzy and Leah know that it is because of the divine energy imbued in her soul energy.

At the same time, people also looked at her highly because of her age and soul power.

The next to go was Mia as she's the vice-captain.

Age: 16

Soul power: 900,418

Arcana: 1

Element: Wood

Qualified: Yes

"Oh, wood…" All the panel members reacted to it even stronger than when they saw Claire's information as Wood is a very rare element. In their eyes, the soul power doesn't matter because it can always be raised even by elemental crystals. However, the element is something Arcana Masters was born with. The rarer it will be, the higher their value to these captains of the General forces of WAMO.

"Okay, next…" The panel member was now looking forward to seeing the rest of the team. Peak-rank-5 at such young age is indeed something worth watching out for.

However, the next set of three only disappointed them. Gideon's and Calder's respective soul power was too low and their element is a basic one too. While Louis' soul power was just above 1 million, indicating that he's low-rank-6, his element turned out to be Wind, although there was also a question mark added to him.

With only two substitutes left, they didn't have much hope.

Just when they were about to lose their interest, Estella stepped onto the platform.

Age: 15

Soul power: 3,459,770

Arcana: 2

Element: Water, Wind

Qualified: Yes

"3 million SP? Twin Arcana? Dual element?" In an instant, the three registration panel members got up on their feet in surprise. The others watching around were also started to murmur around.

"It looks like your team is going to be formidable, Ms. Crescent." The panel member said to Izora as she saw the result on the machine.

Izora responded calmly as she turned her head, "You have yet to witness our strongest team member, you know."

"Hmm…" The panel member followed Izora's gaze and stared at Azzy who stepped onto the platform.

Age: 14

Soul Power: 999,999 (???)

Soul cards: 2

Element: Dark (???), Lightning, Crystal,

Qualified: Yes

This time, the whole surroundings became silent for a moment.

"Crystal?" Even Azzy's own team members were taken aback this time. On the other hand, Claire and Izora fell into confusion, "2 soul cards, not three?"
