Chapter 203: Elemental battle arrays.

It was at this part of the conversation that the entire class was interested because only very few people had talked to Blake talk more of hearing his ideology.

'I guess this was what I signed up for by choosing to become number 1.' Blake thought as he stood up.

"Well, the school activities so far has been quite challenging for me, but that's the fun part about it. In the space of 2 weeks, the classes and exercises have opened up my mind to new possibilities and the strength of teamwork." Blake said.

"So, what can you say about your team with respect to his complaint?" Professor Mack asked.

"Individual strength maters to some certain extent, but most of it can be covered up by teamwork. As long as the gap in power level isn't that much, the team with the greater teamwork will surely win." Blake said.

"Well said. Alright, that's enough for today, let's get today's lesson started." With that professor Mack warped all of them to one of the practice rooms.

"Today's lesson will be on elemental battle arrays, but before that let me give you all a chance to get more points."

Professor Mack completed the barrier array within a split second, but unlike usual dome shape, it was that of a diamond barrier in front of him.

"Let's see how far you all have gone with the barrier array." Professor Mack gestured for them to try.

"This is free points for us." Blake's team were delighted about the task.

Just like they had practiced Blake began with the central region of the array and once it was formed, he envisioned it as a large diamond barrier.

The team followed the usual procedure and synched the mana flow of their parts with that of the center region and at that moment a diamond barrier formed right in front of the team.

"1500 points to each member of Blake's team!" Professor Mack announced with a proud smile on his face.

The entire class were dumbfounded by Blake's team. They were still trying to figure out how to approach the task, but Blake's team had already completed it with ease.

Seeing this, Damon's team tried to do the same thing but they ended up making the same mistake that Blake's team had done.

"Is there any other team that feel they can do it?" Professor Mack looked around the class, but no hands were up.

"I had purposefully not taught that part of battle arrays, in order to give you guys something to discover and play around with, but it seems it was only their team that did that."

Professor Mack was quite disappointed but he went ahead and explained to them about the use of willpower in battle arrays.

"Since all that is done, let's talk about elemental battle arrays."

"Elemental battle arrays are kind of similar to you normal ones, but they harness the elemental particles in the environment to carry out the task while you power the energy conversion with your mana." Professor Mack explained as he cast a light battle array that made him turn invincible.

"This is the concealment battle array that distorts the light rays of a given area thereby concealing the team."

"Note, the greater the number of users in that particular element, the more powerful the array especially if they took control of the central region of the array."

"So, in this case if I were to have a team, I will have to take charge of the central part of the array while they supply it with mana." After the explanation Professor Mack displayed an elemental array for each element except for those of space and darkness.

Since Blake's team had 3 fire users they chose the fire battle array called Flame rings. They went into position, but this time Luciano was the one in charge of the central region of the array.

Flame rings!

Once the elemental array was activated 2 large golden rings of flame appeared, followed by 5 smaller rings.

All the rings began spinning in different directions and a second later fire balls 3 times the size of normal ones came hauling out at incredible speeds.

"Try changing the direction of the flames with your willpower." Blake suggested to Luciano.

Closing his eyes, the flames began obeying Luciano as they all changed direction.

"1500 points to each member of Blake's team and 500 extra for being the first." Professor Mack announced.

Since they had completed their task, they looked over to the other teams only to see that they had flame rings were orange in color.

"Was that because of you?" Brian received a nod from Luciano.

'Golden flames are lit!' Blake thought.

[Because of little fireworks you think they are cool. Wait till you find out what they could really do.] The system said with a 'smirk'.

After the class the team went to the cafeteria, but this time someone wasn't there.

"Isn't it strange that Camilla hadn't joined us for lunch in a while?" Tessie asked.

"It isn't. She is officially part of the Damon's team so I don't expect her to join us." Blake said.

"Even if she did, I won't let her come here." Luciano said in a mean tone.

Everyone on the table looked at him before returning to their meal. They had no idea why he hated Camilla so much, but they didn't feel it was right to ask.

…

The class free day had finally arrived, but unlike his usual days where he went out on an adventurer party mission, he was going on a hunt with his team.

After the failed assassination attempt, Blake along with Castiel and Brian had decided to take a break from commissions.

The reason why he was going hunting with his team was for people like Tessie to gain experience of being in the wild. Also, he had to make sure they were prepared for all types if situations they might meet.
