Chapter 51 - Meeting With Seniors 1

Soon, The team of Seven cannot hold back anymore. From the start of the battle, they were pushed towards the back foot position.

They were unable to fight the Four-legged fire Monster. Sir Lowell McClain arched his eyebrow witnessing such a scene on the Monitor Screen.

He commented, " This batch of recruit is doing not so well. There is still, a lot to improve, When compared to other organizational recruits."

As he was contemplating about their performances. His sci-fi watch notified him. After looking at the message received from one of his men. His sullen mood gets some comfort.

He started to read the detailed report about Zack Lockwood. There is a hint of surprise appeared in his eyes. As he watched the video record of Zack's defensive technique.

He mumbled, "He got a breakthrough. The duration is between two to three months. It is slightly faster than regular lightning Candidates; Looks like the Climatic condition of Mountain Liz is helped little."

Then he continued, " On top of it, I believe his lightning grade is higher than expected." After reading the report. Sir Lowell McClain began to operate on his Multiple Sci-Fi screens. He raised Zack's security level one step further.

Which includes gaining access to his information internally.

The next day, Zack boarded the train to his training facility. He was seated in his regular seat.

Today is going to be fun. I am going to meet a lot of Senior Students and there are chances that some of them already awakened their element. I am looking forward to it.

Yesterday's breakthrough gave me a lot of confidence. Even without showing my lightning ability. I can easily suppress them. So I hope there won't be a bad situation.

The only thing left is to manage my daily schedule. I have read and memorized a lot of information about Class 1 Monster. So far I have completed reading the description about 110 Class 1 Monsters or so.

After today's class. I will decide the schedule at home.

Sometimes, later I reached the training facility.

I opened the door to the training room. I was greeted by Ms. Adeline Key. Seeing me. She said, " You arrived on time. I am looking forward to seeing your improvement in a hand-to-hand combat exercise."

She told me without any expression on her face.

I nodded at her and I joined My Classmates Maria Frazier and Candace Wilkerson. Who stood side by side hearing Ms. Adeline Key. They arrived here before me.

Ms. Adeline took us to another training room. Where there is no pod chamber. It's simply for testing your combat skills.

After arriving at the room.

"I will be fighting each one of you. And I will restrict my strength to your level." Ms. Adeline Key told us.

Hearing her rest of us had no issue with it. All of us nodded. But I was expecting internally to fight my classmates.

"Zack, it's your turn first," told Ms. Adeline Key. I stepped forward.

There is a small battle platform in the training room without any ring. A. I Monitor System installed on top of the ceiling will access our performance.

It sends signals down to the battle platform for assessment. Both of us looked at each other. Maria and Candace. Both girls stood on the sideline to watch our fight.

After the signal was given.

I made the first move. My movements were agile than before. It was smooth. My left fist aimed at her stomach. If she tries to defend with her hand. I will change my position to attack her with my legs.

Ms. Adeline Key was surprised by his smooth and agile movements. She instantly blocks his fist with her hands. Zack bends down and used his legs to kick her.

But he failed to land a hit. As she moved back immediately. Seeing Zack on an attacking mode. Ms. Adeline key changed her stance to attack Zack.

Time went like that. Every time, Ms.Adeline Key came close to put a blow on him. Zack with his perception ability easily foreseen the movements of her attack. And he was able to evade the attack on time.

Everything was analyzed by A. I Monitor Screen.

Soon the fight was over. In a given time no one was able to land a hit on each other. Ms.Adeline key was extremely glad. Because Zack was their asset.

She commented, "Zack, You got good battle sense. And with that agile movement of yours. It's very hard for an enemy to land a blow on you." Then she added, " But, of course, this is possible If both of you are at the same level."

Hearing her. "I'm just defending. If you used your full strength. I can't imagine how many of my bones would be broken." I replied her.

It may sound humble. It was the truth thanks to my recent breakthrough. My strength got risen not only in elemental power. It still rises a little bit in physical and soul power. Same as with my Blood Cultivation Technique.

I feel my bones are a little strengthened. The blood element attribute to Physicality especially Skeleton Structure.

I don't know whether it contributes to My soul and Energy cultivation. Only time will tell.

On the sidelines. Both girls had different thoughts running through their minds.

Maria Frazier said to herself in heart, " He was strong, Even I wouldn't be able to defend Ms.Adeline Key's attack; She got tons of experience in this field. When comes to newbies. She can easily pinpoint his/her weakness and attack it"

Then she continued, "But Zack evaded her attack easily and was able to block some of it." Battle intent burned in her eyes thinking that.

On the other hand Candace Wilkerson. Had no expression on her face. She knew something changed about Zack. Ever since she felt new vibes from him. She knew it. She didn't want to pry it further.

After Zack left the platform. Then it's their turn. At first, Candace entered.

The Battle was started. Unlike Zack, she was not able to anticipate the attack of the opponent. Ms. Adeline Key was able to land a hit on her with smart moves.

Sometime later the battle was over. Both Zack and Candace were failed to land a hit on Ms. Adeline Key.

Next, it's time for Maria Frazier.

Zack commented in his heart, " If not for me having perception ability. I wouldn't battle much better than Ms. Misty (aka Candace Wilkerson)."

Then he watched Maria Entered the battle platform. Her battle was started.

Time passed. Soon, her battle was over. Her performance was a little paler than Candace's.

At the end of the performance. None of us were able to hit on her. I sighed thinking that. I hope we cleared this evaluation test.

Ms. Adeline Key told us, "Wait for me here. I will come up with results of your performance." She left saying that.

Meanwhile, the three of us talked a little bit about our performance.

Soon, Ms. Adeline Key arrived with reports.

She commented, " I already looked at the reports. You guys did well. There is no issue in joining classes with the senior students."

Then she added, " I forward the reports to you."

We all receive the report. Then Ms.Adeline Key lead us to the actual Advance Class. Where seniors were training.

I am excited. Soon, we reached the upper floor.

An entire floor is filled with different training rooms. There is a gravity chamber, Underwater Pressure Chamber, Dessert Simulation Chamber, and so on.

We reached the common hall. Where the instructions were given.

As I entered the hall. I saw four people. Including two males and two females.

Ms. Adeline Key pointed them and said, "Hereafter, They will be your senior students and classmates." Then she asked Senior Students to introduce themselves to us.

Hearing her one of the Male students stepped forward. He was shorter and had a fat body with black short air. He wore a combat dress. Not a training dress. Looking at the small bird emblem on the chest. I believe it's related to some organizations.

The fat guy came forward and said,

"Hi, I am Max Stuart. I am probably a year older than you. My Natural Element is Earth. I am at the Early Stage of Trainee Apprentice."

Hearing that I was stumped. There was a gloating look on his face. I commented in my heart, " I was expecting something better. This guy is only at the Early Stage till now."

Then I smiled in my heart. Looks like I was worried for nothing. I thought they would be at Peak Stage.

Max Stuart was expecting to see surprised looks on newbie's faces. But he failed to do that. Including Zack, none of them had a change of expression on their faces.

Seeing that a look of understanding appeared on Ms. Adeline Key's eyes. She immediately gestured next person to introduce themselves.

This time a guy came forward. He didn't even have a smile on his face. Looks he doesn't want to waste a second here.

He said," My name is Steven Conway. Nice to meet you." He finished his sentence with that.

Seeing that the fat guy commented, "He is a fire element user. And he is at Mid-level of Trainee Apprentice Warrior."

Hearing that all of us had a surprising glint in our eyes. I commented in my heart, "Not bad at all. Looks like everybody here is awakened.. But each of us had a different level."
