Chapter 1966 Waste of time

Chapter 1966  Waste of time

One hour passed.

Sam finally stopped attacking crazily. The number on top of his head stopped at 900. He singlehandedly took half of the targets for himself and now he is floating in the air with his arms crossed.

His appearance felt like he is making a mockery of the rest of the contestants in the test.

Philip and the Five elemental king also hold a huge number on their heads. Not as big as Sam's but they are way past a hundred.

Apart from them, none of the other contestants managed to make it to three digits. In fact very few people are in the high two digits.

Philip and Five elemental king also stopped their hunting. They slowed down and waited for the competition to end.

They already attracted enough attention from the people that they need to attract and they are perfectly fine with their current position.

At this moment, the guy with three of his companions finally decided to make a move.

"It seems like that guy already achieved what he wanted. He slowed down and from the looks of it, he might have become tired too. I guess it is time to make a move."

The leader of the group said to his teammates.

"I am actually surprised that no one else attacked him until now. It is not like he is hiding. Everyone in the contest is cocky enough to think they are not less than any other contestant. Why did no one go after him?"

Hearing that question, the leader chuckled.

"You didnt pay enough attention my friend. It is not that no one tried, but no one succeeded in making a move at him."

The teammates frowned in confusion and the leader explained.

"Whenever someone wanted to make a move and tried to move forward, he attacked them. It doesnt matter whether they are dead or not, his attacks are powerful enough to make them unable to fight."

"He did?"

"Of course why do you think he shot so many arrows when he only killed half of the elementals? And at the speed he started the hunt do you think he would need an hour to kill nine hundred? He killed a hundred in two minutes. Do some math.

Most of his fire power actually went for taking down the attacks of other contestants and taking out the contestants themselves.

He is powerful alright. Very powerful.

If he was born in a different generation or even a few years later, he would have had all the glory, but too bad he is born with me in the same generation. This is my era. The era of Aron and no one can change it.

Let's go. We need to do something before we start hunting him."

Aron went along with his team. They scouted the surroundings and spotted a guy fighting with an elemental. It is a very tough match between them. The main reason being the guy has wood elemental affinity and he is not versatile like Sam or Noah in using it.

The elemental is a direct counter to him.

And him being a mage is not exactly a great additional variable.

To top it all off, he is not a proper combat type. Like the guy Sam faced in the trial by combat he is focused on academics.

At that moment, he is setting up a formation to take down the elemental. But before he could activate the last node, something happened.

An arrow flew through the air and hit an active node within the formation.

*BOOM*

The contestant had to take the backlash and flew in the air for a moment before crashing down.

The elemental looked at Aron and growled. It didn't even realize the remaining three members of Aron's team already surrounding it from three sides…

Time passed, more and more fights are breaking out among the contestants and soon all the elementals disappeared except one. At least that is what the formation stated.

But no one bothered to actively search for it, instead they started hunting down the fellow contestants for the points.

It is a much easier choice and a surefire option.

The battles raged and soon Sam also started seeing more and more contestants in his immediate surroundings. They are all thinking of making a move on her. And a few of those people even had some similar thoughts.

Those people with similar thoughts are right now gathered a bit far away from Sam.

"So, the terms of alliance are like this. Our team of three and your team of three will participate.

I will attack and drag the target's attention. My agility and range are enough to keep him occupied and all his focus would only be on me. My two teammates will add some extra weight for him.

You three are responsible for the attack. We will help in keeping him occupied. We will split the points evenly"

"Deal"

"Deal"

The deal was made instantly and all six of them made their move. Sam aimed his arrow and shot at them. The team in charge of distracting Sam are indeed good with their agility. They managed to dodge Sam's arrows pretty skillfully.

But that is it. They are just skillful. The fifteenth-ranked soldier on twenty-sixth squad of Dusk organization is also skillful. That doesn't mean, he is good enough to deal with Sam.

The seniors and spectators wanted to watch a great show, but Sam just finished it off in two minutes. By the end of it he is holding one of the contestants by his throat and said.

"You really thought this is a good idea? At least you should have made a detailed plan. I almost feel insulted."

The contestant who was trying to get out of Sam's grip, suddenly stopped trying. A smile crept on his face fo Sam's amusement.

The contestant kicked up, but Sam blocked the kick with his other hand, but a token of sorts shot out from under his shoe and latched on Sam's abdomen.

A gush of ice elemental energy entered Sam's meridian network. It directly infiltrated his cells and organs along with his blood. It was meant to freeze him to death.

Sam's expression didnt even change as he looked at the token calmly. The energy is being injected rapidly and partial fusion form is weakening as he didnt try to fight back.

At this moment, the guy in Sam's grip admitted to his defeat and disappeared from the testing site.

Sam stood in the air as he let the ice energy spread his entire body. He turned into a different direction and looked as a figure appeared. It is an elemental creature. The last of the elemental creatures.

He looked at it calmly to examine what kind of aura it is releasing.

He is even more amused.

At that moment, a bunch of vines shot out of the ground to capture Sam by his feet and dragged him. Next a bunch of lightning bolts appeared above his head along with some icicles that came from the front all the while the elemental creature ran towards him with flames spreading wildly.

An energy sphere formed around Sam blocking all the attacks. The vines were not strong enough to pull him down as well. All attacks froze out of that energy sphere and they are not even disappearing.

He then extended his hand and aimed it at the elemental creature. It stopped moving as if it was held by an invisible hand.

"Whoever tried this, please come out. I dont want to waste my time dealing with you guys one by one. I already spent way more time than I wanted to on this stupid test."

Sam

Sam's words reverberated throughout the testing site, but no one came out.

He sighed and a few golden flaming birds that are very small in size spread out of his body. They flew to four different directions and they hit different rocks.

The rocks exploded, but the attacks aren't powerful. But the next moment the team of four led by Aron came out of their hiding spots. Aron had a smile of his face as he looked at Sam who is holding down the elemental creature with his power while staring at them indifferently.

Sam's body is in its partial fusion form. The golden flames blazing out of his body with the contrast of his black shirt and the golden glow coming out of his skin. All of this and then there are lines of ice elemental energy that invaded into his body and created a blue pattern on some parts.

Surrounded by the energy sphere and the attacks of different elements, he looked like a visual out of a painting.

"You are definitely a worthy candidate to consider as a stepping stone."

Aron said as he flew into the air and shot an arrow at Sam.

The flaming arrow made its way and stopped in front of the sphere along with the other attacks.

Sam looked disinterested. He watched as the remaining three got ready to attack him. He is ready to end this and he meant it when he mentioned he doesn't want to waste his time here.
