Chapter 423: Angela's Training

Angela was nervous, excited and unsure exactly what Adam's training would entail and how he was planning to help her improve.

Ever since Elizabeth had regained consciousness, she had been enthralled in her studies of medicinal and poison energy and had also begun rebuilding her foundations.

She would be cultivating two different energies at once and also had two separate energy cycles within her body along with a split dantian.

Elizabeth had also experienced her energy absorption speed and the size of her energy storages increase greatly, along with the strength of her body and speed at which she cultivated.

Her power in terms of cultivation level had fallen, however, it was clear that she was on track to quickly regain her power and would then surpass it with ease and continue developing.

It was as though a wall had been removed from before her and a path had been revealed to her eyes, which she knew was all thanks to Adam who had done most of the work for her when splitting her cultivation.

All she felt was gratitude for Adam and she knew that thanking him wouldn't do either of them much good, so instead, she wanted to become capable, knowledgeable and powerful enough to repay him and be dependable.

She was also planning to strengthen the faction as much as she could and gather any and all information that she could, preparing for any enemies that they might come across.

Meanwhile, Wayde had experienced a similar change and it was as though there was a new light in their eyes that they were flocking towards.

Adam had managed to so greatly impact and help the two of them, that the others couldn't help but be excited to be taught and trained by Adam.

Elizabeth was the one that required the most physical effort and assistance from Adam, however just like Wayde, he had lots of advice for all of them and also had things that he knew each of them had hidden within them.

It still amazed Adam that all of those he had come across and became friends with had such great potential within them that they didn't know about, but it seemed as though without knowing it, his luck had been playing a big part in everything that occurred in his life.

Angela was another individual that had a unique and rare constitution that she didn't know about and the probability of all of the leaders of the faction having some sort of special ability or physique was extremely low, and yet that seemed to be the case.

However, it was only through the system that Adam was able to truly identify what it was as, although his instincts told him they were capable and still had the capacity to improve, it would have been impossible for him to identify exactly what it was that made them special.

"Angela, begin by cultivating your water energy and I will be observing your cultivation. After that, I will give you feedback, observations and advice, and then we can spar or I can help you in any other way"

As he said that, he sat behind her before asking her if he could place his palm on her back.

She blushed slightly after he randomly sat behind her and so close to her, but she calmed down and remembered what she was there for before allowing him to do whatever he needed to.

After observing her cultivation, Adam began to understand what she was doing wrong and it was exactly as Ava had mentioned.

"That is enough, let us spar now," said Adam after observing her cultivate for a few minutes.

Her master over Water Energy was pretty good and she used it for both defence, offence and also to affect the terrain.

Although it couldn't be compared to Fire Energy in offence, or Earth Energy in defence, or Wind Energy in speed, Water Energy was flexible and could adapt and be used in most situations.

Her faults were clear and if she was fighting against an enemy alone who was able to close the distance between them, she would be taken down with ease, and if she was facing an opponent with great defence, she would struggle to harm them.

Fast opponents would easily be able to take her down and she wouldn't even be able to fight back.

Along with that, compared to the others, what he sensed from her while she was cultivating was very lacking and it was clear that the method she was cultivating didn't suit her body and constitution.

Adam didn't hold back against her just because she was a girl, and although he couldn't spar against Elizabeth properly since she used medicinal and poison energy, but Angela was meant to be on part with the other faction leaders.

The world of cultivation was cruel and gender, age and any other factor do not matter in the eyes of most when fighting against each other.

If Angela was expecting privileges and for Adam to hold back just because she would prefer to fight in a support position or felt as though she was someone that didn't enjoy fighting, she was not worthy of being a leader of the faction.

"Angela, the fact that you cannot deal with fast opponents is a massive issue as there are many cultivators out there that specialise in speed" stated Adam before dashing to her side and kicking her leg.

The kick sent her sliding backwards and she felt as though the one had been cracked by the kick, but Adam had held back his strength enough just to stop the bone from breaking.

"You are too weak hearted. Unable to fight alone and have too many obvious weaknesses" he continued.

As he said that, he acted as though he was about to attack the right side of her head, but then swept her legs and held her on the ground as he placed his hand on her neck.

"If it was that easy to take you down, then how do you expect your subordinates to respect, revere and follow you? How do you expect to be able to stand on par with the other leaders?"
