The decision had been left to Raze. After all, he knew the transfer students better than anyone else.
Still, it came as a surprise to everyone when he called out a name they hadn't expected, Liam's.
Even Liam looked stunned.
"M-Me? Really?" Liam asked, pointing to himself. "You think I can take part… and not cause any problems?"
"With the way your mind works, you should be able to understand your limits, what you can and can't handle," Raze replied calmly. "By using your intelligence, combined with your lightning wand and Qi, you're capable of unleashing devastating strikes. On top of that, if things get too difficult, you can always fall back on your identity as a magic swordsman and use your sword."
Raze's voice held confidence, confidence that others rarely gave Liam.
"I believe this will be the final nail," Raze continued. "The one that lets you beat any of the other contestants… without even needing to show your full power."
