Kai woke up startled to the sound of his alarm clock.

Kai: Well time for the team tournament!

Kai jumped out of his bed and grabbed Kitsune with his right hand and then leaved his room seeing Joe leave his rooms in purple pajamas with yellow spots.

Joe: Did you sleep in that?

Kai: Yeah what about it?

Joe: How do you sleep with a cape on? Plus your clothes are probably really sweaty.

Kai: Well I had to be prepared for the team tournament.

Joe facepalmed with his right hand and shook his head side to side.

Joe: We battle in the second round not the first.

Kai: Oh yeah we do.

Kai said while remembering Tyler telling Team 7 that information.

Joe: Yeah, so go wash your clothes and then get to our gym. We have to practice for our match against whatever team we're up against.

Kai: Yeah but I want to watch Tyler and Barrett's rematch!

Kai said in a whiney tone.

Joe: You make me feel like a father.

Joe said in a slightly annoyed tone.

Joe: I can record the battle for you. Just wash your clothes, please.

Kai: Fine.

Kai said in an annoyed tone. Kai then went to his room and switched to his casual outfit and went into the bathroom where there were washing machines and dryers and put his blader attire in the washing machine.

Joe: Alright, time to go Sebastian!

Joe said in a loud voice with his back to Sebastian's room and with his hands in his pockets.

Sebastian: I'm coming!

Sebastian said while leaving his room with a distraught face and in his blading outfit.

Joe: Did you sleep in your blading outfit too?

Joe said in an agitated tone and with his right hand extended and with his right hand's index finger extended to point at Sebastian.

Sebastian: No, I'm not that stupid. You better get changed.

Joe: Oh yeah.

Joe said while looking down to see he was still in his pajamas. He then went back into his room and switched into his blading clothes and then came back into the main dorm area.

Joe: Where'd Sebastian go?

Joe said in a confused tone while looking around the main room.

Kai: Oh he left without you.

Kai said while sticking his head out of the bathroom with the left side of his body.

Joe: Of coarse he did!

Joe said in an agitated tone. He then left the dorm area and jogged his way to the main gym area to see every single team in their numbered area on the bleachers and Sebastian sitting alone at the area with the number seven. Joe got up on the bleachers and then walked to where Sebastian was sitting.

Joe: Did you really have to leave me like?

Joe said in somewhat of a questioning tone.

Sebastian: Well you were going to leave Kai since he wasn't prepared so why should I not leave you since you weren't prepared?

Joe titled his head down and then sat next to Sebastian and then turned his left to the left to look at Sebastian in the face.

Joe: Guess that's fair.

Joe then titled his head back and looked at the center of the gym to see two workers carrying the stadium for the team tournament.

Sebastian: Just so you know.

Joe then titled his head back to see Sebastian with his resonance activated and staring downward.

Sebastian: If I lose this tournament because of either you or Kai, I will destroy both of you.

Sebastian said in a angered tone. Joe moved back a bit with a bit of fear in his eyes from seeing Sebastian's eyes full of red and a red and orange aura surrounding him.

Joe: Got it.

Joe said in a intimidated tone, like a child talking to their angered dad after the dad learned they did something ignorant at school.

Joe: Ever since that battle with Akihiro and Tyler telling him that Akihiro was holding back he's been in such an agitated mood.

Joe thought with concern.

Joe: Did learning Akihiro was possibly holding back against him hurt his pride that much.

Just like a scripted event was taking place, Akihiro then entered the gym and walked over to where Joe and Sebastian sat.

Akihiro: Hey, nice to see ya'll again. It was fun battling with you again Sebastian, I hope we get to see each other in this tournament.

Akihiro said in a tone that sounded honest and genuine, though from behind the scenes it was far from it.

Akihiro: There, this should get Sebastian to see me as a kind person and cause him to believe less in me holding back my power.

Akihiro thought.

Sebastian: What do you want?

Sebastian said in an aggravated tone. His resonance then appeared again but more aggressive this time.

Akihiro: Woah, no need to throw that power around friend.

Akihiro said while stepping back with a worried expression on his face.

Akihiro: I was just trying to say it was fun battling you and I hope we get another rematch.

By the time Akihiro said this Tyler was behind him and tapped him on the shoulder.

Tyler: Aren't you supposed to be with your team?

Akihiro: Oh yeah sorry.

Akihiro said while scratching the back of his head with his right hand.

Tyler: Then you should probably go do that.

Tyler said in a tone that sounded like he was trying to hide his irritation with his existence. Akihiro then left their area and went to his team's area where Barrett and his teammates were.

Tyler: There's something up with that kid, and I don't like it.

Tyler thought while watching Akihiro walk away.

Akihiro: I'm going to need Tyler out of the way for me to even get a chance at trying to convert Sebastian.

Akihiro thought while walking to his team's area with his hands in his pockets.

Tyler: Where's Kai?

Tyler said after he turned his head back to look at Sebastian and Joe.

Joe: He slept in his blading clothes so I made him wash them since they were probably all sweaty.

Tyler: That kid.

Tyler said while shaking his head.

Tyler: Well anyway, the lineup that we're using for this tournament is Joe first, Sebastian second, and Kai third.

Joe: You sure about this? Kai is stronger than me so it would make sense for him to go before me and for me to be last.

Tyler: Yeah I am, I've already planned this out.

Joe: Okay then.

Joe said in a not confident voice.

Tyler: Don't act like that. If you lose your confidence I'm not sure if we can win this. I need you just like everyone else here.

Tyler said while smiling and extending his right arm out to put his right hand on Joe's shoulder.

Joe: Okay, I'm ready.

Joe said while making a fist with a right hand and extending his thumb up.

Tyler: Good.

Tyler said while still smiling. He then turned his head to look at Sebastian with his hand still on Joe's shoulder.

Tyler: What about you Sebastian?

Sebastian: I'm cool with it.

Sebastian said while still facing forward and looking at the center of the gym where the stadium was set.

Tyler: Okay.

When Tyler said this Kai ran into the gym and ran up the bleachers to where the rest of Team 7 was in his newly washed blading uniform.

Kai: I'm here!

Tyler: Okay good. The line up we're doing for this tournament is Joe first, Sebastian next, then finally you.

Kai: What?!

Kai said in surprise.

Kai: I'm barely going to be able to battle!

Tyler: No you will, just trust the process.

Kai: Okay teach.

Kai said reluctantly.

Tyler: Alright I have to go prepare for my rematch against Barrett. After my battle with him I'll meet you in our gym where we can prepare for our battle against whatever team we meet.

Tyler said this while turning around and walking away from Team 7. He then left the gym from the same way he entered with Barrett following closely behind him.

Joe: Who do ya'll think is gonna win?

Kai: Oh definitely Tyler!

Kai said while jumping up in excitement.

Sebastian: Same.

Sebastian said with much less excitement.

Joe: I don't know who'll win. I know from the last battle Tyler has the most likely chance of winning but Barrett could've prepared for this battle with the new knowledge he gained from his battle yesterday with him.

After Joe said this Mr. Winbush was in the center of the gym and began to speak.

Mr. Winbush: Hello bladers! Welcome to the start of the WBBA Academy Team Tournament!

Confetti was then released from machines and started to fall down like rain.

Mr. Winbush: Here today we have many scouts from World League teams here to evaluate your strengths, weaknesses, and potential to see if you have a chance of growing into someone that can hold their own in the World League. So now, let's get into the team tournament with a battle between two teachers, Tyler and Barrett!

After saying the two teacher's names he walked away from the stadium while Sebastian and Barrett made their way to their sides of the stadium. When both teacher's made their way to their sides of the stadium they prepared their launchers and beys.

Tyler and Barrett: 3,2,1, GO SHOOT!

Both beys were launched into the stadium at high speeds. Though something was different because unlike their last battle, Beast was spinning counter clockwise instead of clockwise.

Tyler: Counter clockwise?

Tyler said in confusion.

Barrett: You're not the only one with tricks Tyler!

Barrett said excited.

Barrett: Now go get him Beast!

Tyler: Meet the attack Tachibana!

Both beys clashed at the center which caused a explosion of wind to be released from the stadium which caused both Beast and Tachibana to be sent back.  

Barrett: Let's get serious Tyler, the kids are probably pumped up and want to battle so let's make this quick.

Barrett said this while his resonance appeared.

Tyler: Alright, let's do this.

Tyler replied with his resonance appearing.

Barrett: Now go Beast!

Barrett said while throwing a kick with his right leg.

Tyler: Go Tachibana!

Tyler said while throwing a punch with his right hand and arm.

Both beys clashed again with sparks flying in the stadium and then another gust of wind was released.

Barrett: Character Counter!

Beast moved back and then slammed into Tachibana with all its might.

Tyler: Swift Counter!

Another gust of wind was released with everyone covering their eyes from the wind's pressure and when their eyes were uncovered they found Tachibana still sitting while Beast bursted.

Barrett: What, no!

Tyler: Was your plan to change spin directions to confuse me and then try to overpower me?

Barrett: Yeah.

Barrett said in a disappointed mood.

Barrett: But it looks like your bey's defenses are just too good. Guess they do call Tachbiana the best defense type for a reason.

Barrett said this while grabbing Beast and putting it back together.

Tyler: I wouldn't say all that.

Tyler said while helping Barrett up with his right arm and hand.

Mr. Winbush: Well, that was a quick battle.

Tyler: Well he did say he wanted to end this quick so the kids could battle.

Barrett: Yeah, this battle really just shows the differences in strength with us. Though one day I will beat you Tyler!

Barrett said in an excited mood.

Tyler: Whatever you say.

Tyler said in a joking mood.

Mr. Winbush: Well, now let the battles begin!

Confetti was released from the air again.

Mr. Winbush: The first battle will be Team 16 vs Team 17 so those teams, please come on stage!

After Mr. Winbush said this Team 7 left their area on the bleachers and went to the gym to see Tyler already there.

Kai: How did you get here so soon?!

Kai said in shock while extending his right arm and right index finger to point at Tyler.

Tyler: It's not my fault ya'll are so slow.

Kai: Did you sprint here or something?!

Tyler: How I got here has no relevance right now. Right now we need to practice and prepare. So get to training.

Team 7 was surprised by Tyler's seriousness as he was usually a laid back teacher.

Tyler: Joe and Sebastian I want you two here battling, Kai you're with me.

Tyler said while waving Kai to him. After Tyler said this Team 7 split into their training groups and started to prepare for their battles.

Sebastian: Remember what I told you Joe?

Sebastian said while readying his bey and launcher.

Joe: Yeah.

Joe replied while looking at the stadium and readying his bey and launcher.

Sebastian: Alright then, let's go.

Sebastian said while getting in his launching position with Joe doing the same.

Sebastian and Joe: 3,2,1, GO SHOOT!

Both beys were launched into the stadium at high speeds with Joker in stamina mode and going into the center of the stadium while Susanoo circled around the edges of the stadium.

Sebastian: Go get it Susanoo!

Sebastian said while throwing a punch out with his left arm and hand.

Susanoo then dashed at Joker with high speeds.

Joe: Meet the attack Joker!

Both beys clashed in the center of the stadium causing a gust of wind to be released causing both beys to be sent back. After this Sebastian's flare then appeared.

Joe: Oh so we're getting serious.

Joe said with a smile on his face while his flare appeared.

Sebastian: Hero Upper!

Sebastian said while throwing another punch in the air.

Joe: Not on my watch! Jynx Smash!

Both beys made contact again which resulted in a larger gust of wind being released which caused both bladers to cover their eyes. When the wind dissipated they saw the clash resulted in Joker being sent upward in the air while Susanoo was still spinning in the stadium.

Joe: You got this Joker!

Joe said while extending his right arm out with his right hand open.

Sebastian: Not on my watch!

Sebastian said while holding both hands clenched up into fists at his chest. After Sebastian said this Joker dove down to the stadium floor and Susanoo began to position itself for one more charge attack to end the battle.

Sebastian: Now Susanoo!

Sebastian said while throwing a punch with his extended left arm and clenched left hand. After Sebastian said this Susanoo charged at Joker, slamming into it which resulted in Joker bursting.

Sebastian: There we go.

Joe: Aw man.

Sebastian: I'm going to need you to step up your game for the tournament, because I'm counting on you.

Sebastian said in a serious tone while readying Susanoo on his launcher.

Joe: Yeah, I know.

Joe said in a somewhat disappointed tone while putting Joker back together and readying his launcher.

Sebastian: Alright, let's go again.

Joe: Yeah.

Joe said with a smirk and nodding.

Sebastian and Joe: 3,2,1, GO SHOOT!

*On the other side of the gym*

Tyler: You ready Kai?

Kai: Yeah, I just wish I had a flare like those two. But Kitsune doesn't seem to like me.

Kai said in a somewhat sad tone while turning his head away from Joe and Sebastian's battle and to the floor.

Tyler: What do you mean by that?

Tyler said in a confused tone while slightly turning his head to the left.

Kai: I talked to Kitsune yesterday and he said he would never cooperate with a human.

Kai said while looking at Tyler in the face in a sad tone.

Tyler: Interesting, this has never happened before from my knowledge.

Tyler said with his hand wrapped around his chin with his right hand's thumb on the right side of his chin while his index finger was below the chin with all the other fingers below the index.

Tyler: Guess we'll need to do some extra flare training with you?

Kai: Flare training?

Kai said confused.

Tyler: Yeah, after the team tournament we start teaching bladers techniques to allow you to connect with your bey more. And it looks like you're gonna need some extra training with flare.

Kai: Oh okay, I hope it helps with my problem.

Kai said in an innocent tone.

Tyler: Well we'll get to that later, it's time to practice.

Tyler said while readying his launcher.

Kai: Yeah!

Kai said in an excited tone while readying his launcher.

Tyler and Kai: 3,2,1, GO SHOOT!

Both beys were launched into the stadium at high velocity with Tachibana going to the center of the stadium while Kitsune circled around it.

Kai: Go get it Kitsune!

Kai said while throwing a punch with his right hand and arm. Kitsune slammed into Tachibana but was sent back by Tachibana's spring loaded points.

Tyler: Just slamming into me is not going to work. Did you forget what plan you had before that you used in the exhibition match?

Kai's eyes widened as he remembered his plan he had that he used in the exhibition match.

Kai: Alright let's try this Kitsune!

Kitsune charged at Tachibana again but instead of slamming into it, Ktisune used the Hold' driver to change it's direction and started circling around Tachibana and started randomly doing barrage attacks which wasn't strong enough to push the defensive points back enough to activate the springs but instead the attacks were being used to chip at Tachibana's stamina.

Tyler: Good job, this is a pretty good counter to the Lightning ring. I'm honestly impressed you created a strategy Barrett never came up with. Though it really just shows how high your blading intelligence is.

Tyler said with a smile.

Kai: Keep attack Kitsune!

Kai said while repeatedly throwing punches one by one, using both his arms and fists.

Tyler: And you didn't hear any of that, did you.

Tyler said in a bit of annoyed tone.

Tyler: Now let's get a bit serious.

Tyler said while his flare appeared. After Tyler said this Tachibana blitzed Kitsune and started pushing Kitsune back to the edge of the stadium wall.

Kai: Not one my watch! Planet Dash!

Kitsune dashed away from Tachibana and came back to slam into it from the other side.

Tyler: You've gotten faster huh. Well that's not gonna be enough.

Kai: We'll see about that!

Kitsune started blitzing Tachibana from every side with Tyler not being able to react.

Kai: Let's go Kitsune!

After Kai said this Tyler saw what looked to be the start of an orange aura around Kai though it disappeared as fast as it appeared.

Tyler: Was that?

Tyler was in a bit of shock after seeing Kai unleash what looked to be the start of a flare.

Kai: Now end this Kitsune!

Kai said this while throwing out a punch with his right arm and fist. Kitsune slammed into Tachibana again but this resulted in the defensive points on Tachibana to be pushed in.

Tyler: End this now! Swift Counter!

Tyler said this while extending his right arm out and waving it in the air with the hand open. After Tyler said this a giant gust of wind was released into the stadium. After the dust settled both bladers could see clearly in the stadium that Kitsune bursted while Tachibana was barely spinning.

Kai: Not again!

Kai said while falling to his knees in frustration with both hands clenched and making contact with the floor.

Tyler: It's okay Kai. The difference in power between a teacher and one of you guys is a lot so don't be discouraged from me beating you. Especially since I've been blading for a lot longer than you have.

Tyler said while helping Kai up to his feet with his right arm and hand.

Tyler: You've made a lot of progress in that battle alone with Kitsune's speed. Keep working on that and you can just blitz every blader you go against in the tournament.

Tyler said with a smile and a thumbs up with his right arm extended.

Tyler: Now let's do that again.

Tyler said while readying Tachibana on his launcher.

Kai: Yeah!

Kai said with a happy tone while putting Kitsune back together and setting it on the launcher.

Tyler and Kai: 3,2,1, GO SHOOT!

*One hour later*

A voice on the intercom began to speak.

Mr. Winbush: Hello Team 7, you're match is about to begin so please report to the main Gym for your match against Team 10.

Tyler: Alright let's get going.

Tyler said while opening the door of the gym they were in so they could leave. Once Team 7 got inside the main gym they could see the crowd of people on the bleachers getting excited to see the next battle while other teams were sad as they didn't make it to the second round. On the opposite side of Team 7 and the door to the gym they could see Scouts from every single World League team at their own separate desks with different things like notebooks, pencils, pens, and tablets, taking notes on each blader's strengths and weaknesses to see if they have any sort of potential in the World League.

Kai: Wow, I'm getting pumped for this!

Kai said with a smile while waving to the crowd on the bleachers with both his arms upward.

Joe: Yeah, let's beat this Team 10.

Joe said with a smile while looking at Kai. Unlike Kai and Joe though Sebastian was scouting out the other team. The other team had three members like every other team. One of the members was a skinny boy having black hair tied in a high man bun with a white hair band and brown eyes. He wore a black long sleeve shirt under a green t-shirt with black pants, white socks, blue sneakers, and a pair of silver hoop earrings with one on each ear. The other boy on the team was a fat kid with long brown hair that went to the top half of his back and black eyes. He wore a white t-shirt with a red word on the front that said "WBBA", black shorts, white socks, and black sneakers. Finally the last member was  a skinny female who had blond hair with a pony tail in the back that went to the top middle part of her back but in the front half of her face was covered by her hair and she had light blue eyes. She wore a purple sleeveless shirt that didn't cover her stomach, a purple mini skirt with grey shorts underneath, grey knee protectors, grey elbow protectors,  and black sandals she wore without any socks.

Sebastian: So that's Team 10 huh.

Sebastian thought with interest.

Sebastian: Let's see if they're any good.

Mr. Winbush: Alright each team, choose your first blader!

Mr. Winbush announced in an excited tone on his microphone.

Tyler: You got this Joe.

Tyler said while extending his right arm out and having his hand clenched into a fist for a fist bump.

Joe: You know it.

Joe said while fist bumping Tyler and smiling. He then walked over to the stadium where he met his first opponent which was the skinny boy with the high man bun.

Ref: This is the first battle. The two bladers are Joe Bri with Jynx Joker Gamble Trans 1D against Kayden Nelson with Senior Karna Destroy' 3A. Now let the first battle begin!

Joe and Kayden: 3,2,1, GO SHOOT!
