Chapter 128: Training Over

Adam knew that with his speed, that was too high when compared to the rest of his body, he would need to be careful not to expend too much IESP and EESP as to sustain and fuel such high speed, it required a lot of energy. But against his master he wasn't planning on revealing his full power, so didn't need to worry about that for his current battle.

Adam stood 10 metres away from his master as they both stared at each other and circulated their energies, ready to battle with each other.

Each and every time that Adam sparred against his master, he would improve ever so slightly and would learn and adapt from the mistakes he made and the tips his master gave him, exploiting the enhancements of the Hunter's mind to their fullest.

His master didn't take the battles with Adam seriously, but he still had to be careful against Adam, as even with Adam's comparingly low cultivation, if he was able to land a powerful attack on him when he wasn't prepared, his frail body wouldn't be able to handle it.

"You may attack" allowed his master as he stood there with his hands behind his back, like he usually would.

Adam was only planning on displaying power that was ordinary for a cultivator at his level, so knew that his power wasn't what would impress his master in their spar, and it was his skill, combat prowess and the different techniques, skills and abilities that he had.

Before charging at his master, Adam dashed to the wall of the dojo, that was to his right, and grabbed one of the spears that were hung there.

Adam was curious to see just how much his spear skills had improved after his mastery had improved to 10% and felt that the spear skill wouldn't shock his master much, as the concept behind it was very similar to that of the Dual Slash Skill.

With the spear in hand, Adam felt an unexplainable feeling of being more experienced in its use, and he felt much more comfortable wielding the spear in his hands. 

Spear Projectile

Dashing towards his master with the spear that was nearly two metres long, Adam was completely balanced and thrust the spear forwards towards his master's throat.

Despite limiting his body's power to that of an ordinary early rank 4, Adam's attack was still shockingly fast and powerful as his master suddenly moved backwards, dodging the Sharp Energy Projectile that was launched towards him through the attack.

Adam liked the use of daggers as it allowed him to use his speed to its fullest, while he liked the use of spears of their power and longer range that it gave him, and was also planning on learning and training in the use of at least one ranged weapon. He wanted to be skilled and prepared in every aspect.

"Not bad, it seems your spear skills have improved and you also have created a simple yet effective spear skill" observed had master as he swiftly aimed a kick towards Adam's head.

Although Adam's intelligence stat was quite low when compared to his speed, which limited the capability of his senses and energy control, his high speed stat enhanced his reflexes, even if he was trying to suppress the amount of speed he wanted to reveal.

Adam twisted his wrists as fast as he could and he had managed to block his master's kick with the pole of his spear, which was the first time that he had managed to block any of his master's attacks. 

"Your reflexes seemed to have surpassed the speed and senses of your body," said his master, who was surprised by Adam's improvements and suddenly increased the amount of power he was using.

With incredible speed that was so fast that it was only a blur to Adam, his master kicked him in the side.

Even if Adam used his full speed, he was unsure whether he would have been able to avoid his master's second attack as he was launched flying towards the wall of the dojo.

However, just like every other time that Adam was about to damage the dojo, his master appeared behind him with incredible speed and struck him downwards, slamming him onto the ground.

"You have improved quite massively and over this past month, your growth has been steady and quite fast, with no signs of stopping. However do not become over confident and complacent even though you are talented and progressing, because any other cultivator at my level can easily kill you within an instant" warned his master.

It was clear to both of them that there was no point continuing their battle and that the month of continuous training was coming to an end. Although Adam was going to return to continue training with his master, he couldn't stay for any longer and had other things that he needed to do in Brooklyn.

"Master I will be leaving and might not be returning for a few days and maybe even a few weeks. I appreciate all the tips and combat training you have provided me" thanked Adam gratefully as he stood up and bowed to his master.

"It was quite entertaining for me as well, but just make sure to bring me as much snacks as you can, that's the only happiness an old man like me can have" reminded his master.

Adam nodded his head and cleaned up as much as he could before prepared his motorbike to leave.

He couldn't help but think about how boring and depressing his master's life must be, and even with his great power, he seemed to be afraid of leaving the dojo and exploring the outside world. Adam didn't want to pry too much into his master's life and knew that it wasn't his place to do so, but he wanted to repay his master for the training and guidance that he had given him, so was willing to help his master in any way that his master needed.

If he wanted to be of any use to his master or be able to repay him, he needed more power, which was exactly what he was focused on acquiring.
