Sparks of dense lighting began gathering around the arms of Bruce. For an ability so frightening on it's own, in the hands of an E-Rank, the lightning ability was quite powerful.
And Blake's senses were sending him danger signals.
[What....have ....you ...done]
The System said as it gave the feeling like it was currently facepalming at that moment.
'Well, you can't blame me, he was pushing my pride '
[Pride?]
[You are about to kill yourself over some pitiful mortal just because of your...Pride?!].
'Dont put it that wa-'
[Shut up! just shut the hell up! are you even listening to yourself, pride is for the powerful not for the weak!].
The system was going on and on and Blake's mood continued to darken. This system was making him infuriated. And coupled with the danger signs his mind was sending him, Blake was having a hard time focusing.
It was then....
"Alright you two, knock it out". A mans voice resounded before a pressure hit everyone in the hall making everyone feel like they were in the presence of an all time powerful being. Even Blake was frozen in shock as his mind instantly went into panic mode seeing what appeared in front of him.
[Name:Astrain Grandeur]
[Race: Angel]
[HP:????]
[H.E:????]
______
______
______
[Power level: 145,788]
[Rank:Peak C-Rank]
'Angel...he's an angel'.
'So powerful'.
[Ah, yes he appears to have tapped into his angel bloodline making him stronger then any normal C-Rank. Normally,this should only be possible for beings at the B-Rank level. But it appears your teacher here has lady luck by his side].
*Hmph*
With a cold snort, Bruce walked back to his trio and once again assumed the nonchalant attitude he previously had. Although he tried to hide it, even he was affected by the pressure that Astrain exuded. Coupled with the fact he was C-Rank existence, his aura was no joke.
Seeing as there were presently no commotion, the teacher proceeded to check if any students were okay. Truthfully speaking, although he restrained his aura to the barest minimum, he was sure to have scarred some kids here although none of them would show it. After all, when he released a bit of his aura, he instantly saw everyone faces turning pale.
Some where even close to loosing consciousness.
[Time Remains:0:01]
[Pairing has been initiated]
A robotic like voice said as multiple 'dings' began going off simultaneously.
Gazing at his watch, Blake looked at the new information.
[Name:Blake Turner]
[Rank: F]
[Group:32]
[Points:0]
____________
Similarly, everyone had the same set of information but it was the difference in groups that distinguished them all.
[Look for the remaining three members of your group]
[Your Group colour would be your guiding factor]
Concluding the message, Blakes watch immediately beeped twice, before a bright yellow flashed from the watch. Now, he just had to watch out for any body that also had the same colour that he currently possessed.
Like they said, their group colour was indeed the determining factor.
Likewise, everyone watches began flashing colours after beeping twice. Some watches flashed red, others scarlet, others purple, however, no color was repeated by those of other groups.
It was meant to be four people per group,so the colours were unique to those four. At least everyone hoped.
[Head to the teleportation Chamber]
Again a robotic voice was heard and slowly everyone trickled down to the hall to the teleportation chamber.
While all this was going on, a different type of conversation was occuring in a separate quarter of the AA. It was a special space,that even the top students and some teachers didn't even know about. It was exclusive for the top of the top. The real backers. Right now, everyone had serious expression on their faces.
"So he awakened"?
"How did that even happen"? another asked.
At first, everyone thought it was a glitch but after series of tests and scanning they actually concluded that indeed he had awakened. He was indeed quite special despite his attitude everyone thought.
"What do we do now".
"He'll definitely make us pay".
"We turned a blind eye to everything that happened to him now what?"
""First of all, we didn't even know he had awakened and second of all, it was all on a huge gamble. That watch was not supposed to be equipped with that function to detect energy in ones body. It just so happened that luck finally showed it's fave to the lad".
Another commented after some deep thoughts.
"Sh...shh...should we eliminate him?" A rather small voice was heard as one of the individuals there spoke up in a rather small voice.
"Wha...what" a hand was slammed unto the table and a bearded man got up looking enraged.
"How did your mind even come up with something like that"
"You really thought of eliminating Blake Turner, knowing he is the son of THAT man? are you sick in the head or something"?
Similarly everyone began voice their displeasure about the matter and slowly, the one who spoke just stayed shut. Afraid that he may be attacked.
"How about we take him as a disciple"? Again some came up with a suggestion.
"Impossible!" instantly everyone once again voicing their concerns.
" He won't even accept it. That arrogant bastard"
"Enough!"
"We would discuss this later, the trial is starting".
Saying this, the room turned silent as a huge holographic screen appeared in the room, showing the students who exceeded over a thousand. Yet somehow, they were able to monitor everything and didn't seem to be struggling. However despite everyone focused gazes, the real person they were actually looking at was a certain young man with blonde hair from Group 32.
___________________________
'Where are they?" Blake asked as he continued scanning the vicinity'.
'Useless scums!' Blake cursed as his eyes swept the whole surrounding in seconds'.
'Aha!'
Blake exclaimed in his mind as he started speed walking in a particular direction. Trying to catch up to a student with the same glow of Yellow on his watch.
[Name: Andrew Skyfall]
[Race: Human]
[Ability:Hercules Fist]
[HP:110/110]
[H.E:770/770]
[Strength:97]
[Agility:96]
[Endurance:87]
[Rank:Mid F-Rank]
'Damn he's strong'
Blake thought as he momentarily stopped in his tracks he even began comparing it with his own. However....a ding sound brought him out of his reverie.
[Ding]
[New feature unlocked]
[Level Reader]
[Skill description: Find out the chance of defeating your opponent from a single glance]
[Skill level(Maxed)]
[Passive Skill]
'Lets gooooo! a new skill'. Blake thought as he immediately looked at Andrew again but the message below made face turn pale.
[Fight Difficulty level: Insane]
[ You can win although it would be a very tasking battle]
Simple and short but it crushed Blake's hopes. Blake knew his current stats were over half of this guy's current strength so he was a bit confident especially in his skill 'blitz'. He was confident in landing a strike as long as he could get the first hit.
"Where are the rest" Blake asked immediately he had made his way to the very back just to catch this guy, while everyone were making their way to the Teleportation chamber. Of course he didn't give a damn what this guy thought and asked directly what was in his mind.
"Huh..huh?"
Andrew turned not expecting to interact with someone so soon. He was just looking out for his teammates when he heard a voice, so naturally he was a bit shocked as he thought he had not done anything out of the ordinary.
By now, people were already getting teleported to the Desolate ground.
"Oh Blake I was just..."
Suddenly a screen popped up in front of him.
