Looking at him unconscious, Sylrin smirked. "Having a celestial grade Arcana spirit and a bunch of vast knowledge is useless if the wielder himself couldn't apply it properly in a battle."
Meanwhile, the proctor waited for another ten seconds, and when he saw no movement from the boy, he raised a hand.
"The participant is not in any condition to battle. Match concluded! Winner: Sylrin of the Ellondira Academy!"
The crowd was silent, and so were Rael and others as they saw Arjuna was bested so easily and cleanly in this match. Whatever the impression Arjuna generated in the last match was gone as he lost twice in a row.

The arena was still quiet from Arjuna's unexpected defeat when the announcer's voice echoed once more as he was taken on a stretcher to the healing ward.
"Next up, the Duo Battle! Representing the Ellondira Academy: Serelis and Lirel. Representing Heavenly Academy: Azrael and Eon!"
