"My name is Sashanbarreliia'Yukaterinan, but you humans tend to shorten it to Sasha. Since I challenge you to a test of skill, I shall not keep you in the dark. I am a skilled Elven Archer who sparked with the Wind element."
Sasha pointed towards Reina and spoke confidently, her eyes gleaming with a strange light.
The Wood Elf had watched Ash's battles and Reina's first fight, so she - more than other Grandmasters - understood that despite their high power, these brats were in the end still children.
Reina was moved by this scene and replied in turn. "My name is Reina McKnickles, and I'm a normal Archer who has awoken to the Spirit element, Wind element, as well as a few others."
Hearing this, Sasha's eyes darkened. Given the age difference, the Elven Archer had attempted to dupe the young girl into revealing her elements and powers on her own through this farce, but Reine had revealed nothing that hadn't already become apparent from the last fight.
Who among these Grandmasters hadn't seen through those spells as observers? The Terror spell Reina had used was of the Spirit element, the Wind Whisper had obviously been of the Wind element, whereas the Mana Sink spell was of the Water element.
All the Wood Elf had managed to do was grant her opponent some insight into her own strengths!
This made Sasha wary, as she secretly elevated the status of Reina in her heart, feeling that this little whore must be quite cunning.
However, the Elven Arched was actually thinking too much into things. She wasn't wrong that the girl was still a child, yet she had been raised as nobility. Her thought process was quite spoiled and extravagant, though it hardly showed due to Darius' and Gunner's harsh training.
Right now, all that was going through the teenage girl's mind was how elegant and beautiful Sasha was and how she sorely wished to be like her when she matured. As such, Reina planned to give the battle her all and please her new idol.
As for not revealing all her elements, she was under the impression that her spells were so unique that none of the Grandmasters would have seen through it. She had merely revealed those two because they were her main and secondary elements.
The rest were just auxiliary, so she didn't see them as important. In fact, in Reina's mind, naming them all would have annoyed her idol, making it seem like she was trying to boast.
Well, misunderstandings aside, the battle began.
Sasha smiled and nocked five arrows, coating them with a green light thanks to her Imbue skill, which allowed her to 'enchant' anything she wielded with her own power.
In this case, it was with the Wind element. Her arrows were now able to use it freely instead of being limited to one type of spell-like Reina. She fired them out immediately, the arrows spinning in different directions as they zigzagged towards their target with horrifying speed.
Reina was not to be beaten, though. She also nocked five arrows and attached a spell to each one of them, her mind rapidly calculating the variables of the battle based on her senses.

Reina's spells were all synergized and well-planned out. Sonic Strike appeared in front of Sasha before she could even remove her confident smirk from her face after firing a barrage she felt would net her an easy win.
Sasha hurriedly controlled the wind to form a barrier before her, but it was useless. She was struck right in the shoulder by the arrow, crying out in pain as it easily pierced through her leather armor and embedded itself into her body.
She was shocked that this arrow easily struck her, not to mention its speed. In truth, even though this arrow had its damage weakened, it was still a special arrow crafted for Reina using the best materials.
The base damage was high enough to deal fatal damage, so even when lowered, it could still inflict heavy injury. Then again such a small strike was not enough to kill a Grandmaster, yet it wasn't meant to kill, merely to distract.
Due to her shock from the sudden pain, Sasha had neglected the other four deadlier arrows that were rushing over this very instant.
When she finally remembered them, the Wood Elf was almost defenseless to their ensuing strike, forcing her to take drastic measures to ensure her life's safety.
