Looking at Edgar Pierce sitting by his side, Leo asked, "So, where is Osborne right now?"

"Over there," Edgar Pierce pointed to the side and added, "He's preparing for the revival round,"

Revival round. Just like what its name suggests, it will allow the player who wins the round to join the Battle Competition again. All the participating players in this round are only those who have been eliminated in the first round. And once they win, they will immediately be fighting in the semi-finals. 

"He'd probably become the winner, considering all of his possible enemies," Edgar Pierce expressed his thought. 

"Indeed," Leo nodded his head.

It is very obvious already that Eme Clarity won't be able to join the revival round anymore as she lacks sufficient energy and stamina to even stand herself up, let alone continue to fight, thus leaving only three players for Osborne to fight against in order to win the revival round.. Two of those people are merely considered as cannon fodders, so his win is pretty much guaranteed if they are his opponents. The only person who could threaten him is either Selina or Faye, depending on who will win their current fight. Regardless, his chance of winning against either of them is still quite high, that it wouldn't even be strange to say that he is already the winner.

"Between Selina and Faye, who do you think will win?" Edgar Pierce curiously asked.

"Selina," Leo gave his answer decisively. There isn't really that much to explain. Just by looking at Selina and Faye's ongoing fight, anyone with the slightest common sense could already guess who would win.

"I guess you're right," Edgar Pierce responded with a monotonous tone in his voice.

At this moment, Selina is suppressing Faye really hard that all she can do is defend herself from her never-ending barrage of attacks coming from all sides around her. She basically has the same situation as Eme Clarity, where she is just a sitting duck waiting for the hunter to kill her, except that she is in an even worse situation as the latter could at least change her situation. In contrast, she can't do that no matter how much she tries.

Faye grit her teeth as she continues to use her sword to defend against Selina. She finally understands why the latter had become Prince Elmont's girlfriend; these two have the same battle fanatic behavior!

"If I were you, I would choose to give up now so that I can conserve as much energy and stamina for the revival round," Selina suggested while waving her sword towards Faye.

Clang!

Faye used her sword to defend before replying, "How thoughtful of you, Selina. Then how about you do that instead," After saying that, she suddenly pushed Selina using the force she exerted on her sword and retreated a bit further to the back.

"That's no use!" Selina said with a wide smile on her lips.

Clanggggg!

Instead of just retreating for a bit, Faye retreated for ten or so meters to her back, causing her to stumble and fall after getting out of balance due to her feet being unprepared. This instantly made her sweat profusely while wearing a horrified look on her face. Deep inside of her, she could already imagine that she would lose the fight against Selina.

"Take this!" Selina waved her sword towards Faye while simultaneously casting, "Water Jet!"

Whoooosh! Whoooosh! 

Two water jets that have the same shape as a sword shot towards Faye's direction.

"Tch! I didn't expect that I would have to use this at the early stage of the Battle Competition," Faye muttered to herself. In the next moment, her emotions suddenly calmed down as if she found a new sense of hope somewhere that only she knew about. 

But it didn't take that long for Faye to reveal the reason for her sudden change of behavior. 

With a wave of her hand, Faye took out an armor that had used 5-Star level Magical resources as materials. The armor instantly wrapped around her body along with a blinding bright light.

Boooooom!

A muffled explosion sounded after the two water jets directly made contact with Faye's body. But the water jets didn't achieve what it was intended to do. Instead, it only exploded upon touching Faye's body, creating a short rain that drenched the surrounding ground around her.

Not long after, the blinding bright light that wrapped around Faye's body disappeared, which right after showed everyone a gold armor that protects her from head to toe.

Wearing a surprised expression on her face, Selina asked, "Isn't this a bit of an overkill to use such an armor in the Battle Competition with only 1-Star level Mages as participants?"

"The rules clearly stated that we can use any items we can as long as it doesn't allow us to defeat our opponents instantly. Tell me, can this armor of mine do that?" Faye asked, with a ridiculing tone in her voice. She also added, "And you already noticed it before, Eme Clarity was also using a Magic Garment using 5-Star level Magical resources. And if that isn't enough proof for you, Guild Leader Loki used a Magic Garment using 9-Star level Magical resources. Whichever angle you look, what he used is clearly even more powerful than mine,"

"As much as I hate to agree with you, but you are indeed correct," Selina said while throwing a murderous glare at Guild Leader Loki. If it wasn't for him, then Faye wouldn't have thought of such a reason for using such a powerful item against her.

Sensing Selina's stare, Leo simply looked up. He then started whistling as if acting like he was innocent and had nothing to do with what was currently going on. But honestly speaking, though, Faye is actually correct. The rules of the Battle Competition allow any items as long as it doesn't let any players completely dominate the entire game and get them the championship without facing any sort of challenges. Although wearing an armor that uses 5-Star level Magical resources will, truthfully speaking, allow a player to dominate the entire game, Selina could fairly do the same thing as well, which also includes everyone currently present on the stage. Even if none of them is bringing any of such armor with them, it still doesn't change the fact that they are indeed capable of equipping themselves with one. The only concern would be that they didn't bring any. In other words, the rules are pretty flexible.
