"ZERO!"
They called out his name but the situation didn't change. Zero was still taking the hits from other participants without retaliating.
The Ace Academy students also had worried expressions but more than that they were confused by Zero's behavior.
This strange behavior also caught the eyes of people in the VIP area. They also discussed what was happening on the stage.
"It must be the side effect of Zero using that strange technique. How else could he be so strong despite being a Rank-C -?"
Ulv Sylvester spoke in an attempt to reduce suspicion of Zero's action. He didn't want them to find out that someone was interfering with the match.
He said in such a loud voice that not only the people in the VIP area but also other people in the stadium had heard that. They also thought that the explanation was plausible.
They had only sensed Zero's mana aura which was at Rank-C -. He has already shown a level of strength beyond that.
