Today, there were more people and more noise in the school than usual.
Students sell food and groceries at stalls on both sides of the main street from the school entrance to the school building.
We were on our way to the arena, listening suddenly to the audience.
"Wow... so many people..."
"Hmm, mo mo. Still, the oak skewer is grilled. It's very delicious. Mummy."
"Hey Muskel, don't talk while eating. The meat is scattered."
Lancelot jumps out of Muskel talking with skewers on his cheeks.
While laughing at those two, we S-class members were walking.
I've never visited a street stall with friends like this in my previous life, and I wasn't interested in school festivals, but this kind of thing is quite fun.
The Martial Arts Festival, the highlight of the Adventurers School School Festival, is an event attended by a majority of students.
It seems that most people are gathering for it from outside the school.
The number of participants in this martial arts festival is about 300.
The qualifiers will be held today on the first day of the school festival, the tournament will be played on the second day, and the semi-finals and finals will be played on the third day.
Today's qualifiers are divided into grades.
From tomorrow's tournament, students of each grade who have won the qualifiers will be shuffled to fight.
In general, the winners will be in the S class in the third grade, but last year it was unusual for the second grade to win. It is said to be the most powerful winner this year because the person is in the third grade.
How strong is he? I'm a little excited that I want to fight.
Seeing such a look on my face, Rose smiled hard. [M]
"Sirius, I'm on board. I knew you were looking forward to it.
I regretted seeing through my heart that I didn't want to participate, and I lost sight of it.
Five groups of about twenty will be formed in the qualifiers. Five of the winners will then pass the qualifying round by competing in each group for the Battle Royale.
And we were coming to see the grouping poster.
"Beard... I'm not in the same group as Sirius..."
"Ah... air-chan, don't be silly."
It's Don Mai.
"It's Don Mai...."
"... Don't Mai"
"Hey, what are you doing with that?
Air, who had become a group like me, looked sloppy. [M]
And everyone is comforted by tapping Ms. Air on the shoulder.
Isn't it terrible how I treat you?
"I can't help it... if all the participants beat each other..."
"Mr. Air, are you kidding me? I'm scared of your face.
I don't think it would be possible for me to be beaten up by all of them. Probably.
"Either way, it will hit. Just early or late."
"Of course it is....."
Air, let's do our best!
"... that's right. I'll do my best!
Mr Air had a determined eye. Hey, my eyes are a little too serious.

"Now, let's start the martial arts festival!
"" "Uoooooooooo!!
The venue was filled with cheers when the announcer was announced by a very well dressed and cute girl student with a lovely voice.
The audience seat in the arena was Gyugu, and the passage around the outer perimeter was filled with eyewitnesses.
Since we were in our first year of school, we watched the scenery from the bench in the arena.
"Su, you're such a wonderful person...."
"Are you getting nervous?
"That's right, that's a bit of a shake! I don't know if Sirius has anything to do with it!
"I'm nervous too."
That said, she smiled bitterly and scratched Polypoly's head, and Ms. Air looked at us unexpectedly.
"Your stomach is already tingling."
That's how she pressed her stomach and walked away, and Ms. Air squeezed her mouth and blew it out.
"Fufu, even Sirius is nervous. That might make it a little easier. Thank you."
"I'm human too, I'm nervous."
"You don't seem like the same person."
"Because you're the same person, right?
It seems that a round of battle will begin while we are hanging out with Mr. Air. Muskel takes part in the first round.
Well then, I'll go.
Ah, muscle, good luck.
Twenty students stand in pieces in the arena. Among them, Muskel's height and physical appearance are all out of his head, and he emits an unusual color.
Nearby students also looked at the flickers and muskels and said, "I'm not sure."
Yeah, I know how that feels. But if we don't take him down, we won't be able to pass the qualifiers.
"Now, I, Julia Marvel, and the instructor will be doing the explanatory work for this second grade A class! Well then, let's begin the first round of qualifiers for the first grade...!
The explanatory seat was seated by a beautiful girl student, Senior Julia, and several instructors.
As the game began, Muskel played the muscle pose and looked around.
With Muskel's attention, Dondong students move away from their surroundings.
A little farther than Muskel, the battle started quickly.
It looks like the swordsman is rapidly attacking the sorcerer.
"Whoa! The swordsmen are on the move! The key to the swordsmen's victory is how to stand up against the use of powerful magic by the sorcerers!
Muskel saw no one around him and had a strange expression.
No, it's inevitable.
"Funnu, if no one comes, we have to go. Muscle Waves (Muscle Impact) !
--Dogoahhhhhh!!
When Muskel swung his fist out, the students on the extension were blown away, causing the students nearby to get involved and leave. Incidentally, the arena is set to exit if you lose consciousness or life. Of course, because it is a pseudo-space, it will not really die.
All the students in the arena, including the students who were fighting away from Muscle, opened their eyes and looked at Muscle.
"Nh, what a!! The impact of a punch made seven students incapable of battle in an instant! He's, uh... a first-year S class, Mr. Muskel... an athlete!!
"S-Class......"
"Bam, it's a bug... it's a muscle bug..."
The students in the arena trembled.
"Hey, guys! Let's take him down first!
"Yes, yes! If it's all together, it'll be fuzzy!!
Muskel was spreading his hands and rushing into a crowd of noisy students.
"'Double Lariat'!!
Five or six students were also expelled.
"Su, you're a great muscle skeleton!! I cut my number to half in no time by myself!
"Look, it's going to take us all!
"" Wow!!!
― ― As a result, the participants were completely destroyed by Muskel's brawl.
"And the winner! Muskel!!
"Hurrah! Muscle victory!
Muskel, who had many burns and lacerations caused by attack magic on his body, left with a flat smile.
"I don't think Muskel is either....."
Air nodded with a bitter face to her murmur.
