The week leading up to the Graduation bout, Liza, Thando and Zodwa had joined the training that the kids were doing.
Wendy had also increased the training to everyday for the last two weeks. The first week they fought each other. Kwanda was not allowed to use his teleport or any magic weapons during the fights, his mana meant he was unleashing pure mana as an attack. This method was the same she used for Liza to managed her ability.
Cho had made amazing progress with the close combat tag team action with her giant and earth magic. Her and Daniel would fight a lot the effects of all the training were beginning to show.
Greta was also a great student her natural drive meant that had the most out of training practice as she would always do more than required even the special suit she wore with weights was heavier than what everyone thought.
Cho was really upset the one day as she was trained she kicked a solid training dummy across the room. She was usually more reserved, Greta tried to console Cho as she knew it was because of Lebo, She had fallen for Richards lies and was squarely in his corner.
Cho could not find a way to reach her, her friend who always shared lunch suddenly changed and would not even speak to her. Lebo refused all of Chos' efforts at reconciliation she even blamed Cho for state of their friendship. None of the other kids really interfered except to consol Cho.
Lebo was her best friend, and they wanted to support Chos' efforts. As a last ditch effort Cho had tried to convince her to join her lunch at the spot. A secret between the girls, instead of coming alone Lebo brought her new friends and broke the only promise between her and Cho.
That day and the following Cho, defeated all the dummies nearly instantly. She was experiencing a pain that none of the other kids understood. Kwanda came through as too intense, his attempt at a trying to make her feel better only made her cry.
The sisters whipped the kids almost with remorse everyday for a week. The kids each had to fight the sister's. Zodwa was the most scary as she was fighting with a personal goal in mind.
Her merciless attitude forced all the kids to respect Kwanda more as he still had evening classes with her.
Roses magic has reached a qualitative improvement her elements now act as one. She can even form frost swords. Coupled with her Ion sword formed from her mana she was coming into her own style pretty quickly.
Wendy would come around every three days or so to give extra tips to the girls, they are preparing the for the Graduation bout. Liza had even interpreted the knowledge she got from The witches hunters guide, to form her unique combat tricks.
The combat casting was proving much harder to master the kids were pushing themselves hard achieving things their contemporaries had not even thought of.
Kwanda also had to dealt with a man that was following him from school, all the kids had surrounded him and caught the man, delivering him to Wendy.
