From MC's perspective:
Monster Zone,
When the dust settled. I saw a monster squatting down, beating its chest. The monster was completely fine. Apart from superficial skin injuries.
Roar~
The Red-eyed Ape saw the enemy was fine. It rushes to attack the enemy again.
Seeing the monster coming towards me. I didn't get flustered. I pointed my fingers at the monster.
The next moment, a purple ball appeared at the tip of my fingers.
"Lightning finger technique,"
The next second, I released the attack, targeting the coming monster. A purple beam shot at the monster.
In a blink of an eye, the attack comes in contact with the target. The purple beam hits the monster's chest.
Boom~
A terrible sound reverberated throughout the area. The dust rose from the ground again.
For a second, I thought there was no response.
Roar~
The next second, I heard a roar. This time the roaring sound was so fierce. Looks like the ape monster was completely pissed off.
When the dust was gone. I saw a massive scar on the monster's chest. Seeing that my eyes flickered.
The monster's physical strength is similar to mine. But I found a way to injure the monster.
Then I brought my black sword forward. I charged the black sword with the lightning essence.
In a blink of an eye, the black blade flickered with a purple glint.
The ape monster on the other hand felt dizzy. The lightning attack has caught it off guard. Because of it, the ape monster was completely enraged.
The monster's eyes reddened with anger. It charges toward the enemy again. Its anger was so high that the monster wanted to plummet the enemy.
"Sword Divide"
A powerful lightning beam discharged from the sword. The attack shot at the monster, targeting the injured chest area.
This all happened within seconds.
The ape monster saw bright light blinding its eyes. At the same time, a sense of crisis hits the monster all of a sudden.
But unfortunately, the ape monster was close to the attack. The lightning beam hits the scar of the ape monster.
The lightning power tore through the skin causing deep injury to the monster. The lightning power was one step away from exposing the inner bones.
Roar~
The ape monster is roaring in pain. It starts to hit the ground in anger. It almost forgot about the enemy.
Seeing the monster's behavior, I decided to quickly charge the sword again.
One more attack hitting the same spot the monster will die for sure.
But something strange happens the next moment. The ape monster regains some clarity. Feeling the deep injury in the chest region.
The ape monster began to flee.
"Lightning Phantom Technique,"
The purple arcs covered my legs. The next moment, I disappeared from the spot. Then I started chasing the fleeing monster.
The ape monster is running at a faster speed. But I quickly reached the monster. I held the sword in my left hand. I decided to use the blood fist by using the right hand.
"Blood Fist"
The blood energy reaches my forearm. When the energy gathered around the fist. I punched the back of the monster.
The blood energy is something. When I raised my fist to attack, the ape monster abruptly stopped moving and turned toward me.
The monster raised its fist to counterattack.
Boom~
When both of us first collided. The impact force has sent me a few steps backward. But the ape monster crashes to the ground surprisingly.
A quick gleam flashes in my eyes. The chest injury affects the monster.
"Lightning finger technique,"
Without giving any chance to the monster. I instantly released the lightning-finger attack. The purple beam hits the monster again.
Pfff~
Blood splattered on the ground. This time the chest bones are visible. The ape monster seems to have lost half of its strength.
Seeing that monster is not running away. I released the lightning attacking again. After getting hit by the same attack.
The red-eyed ape monster has lost its breath.
"Phew"
"It was tough," I muttered to myself.
Then I activated my perceptual ability. Seeing that there was no monster in the vicinity. I sighed in relief.
Then my attention turned toward the monster. I started to dissect the monster's body. After removing the monster core, I placed the dissected parts in the storage container.
30 minutes later,
After finding no monster, I decided to leave. I spotted the teleportation point. After entering inside, I selected the server.
Swoosh~
I disappeared from the spot. Then I appeared back in the Teleportation Tower.
Today's hunt went well. I got monster cores of powerful monsters.
I start heading toward my dorm room. Suddenly, I couldn't help but think of the Gale Faction Members.
Someone wanted to challenge me. I believe people will start to pester me from tomorrow.
After pushing down these thoughts, I continued to head toward my dorm.
The following day,
After getting out of bed, I started to do my morning routine.
Half an hour later,
I entered the training room to cultivate. Sitting down cross-legged, I took the monster core and held it in my hand.
Then I started to run the blood element method.
Time passed in a blink of an eye,
The monster core in my hands crumbles into pieces a few hours later. I already got enough healing essence in my dantian.
So I stopped cultivation and walked out of the training room. My skin was covered with sweat.
Then I head to the bath to take a shower.
Several minutes later,
I changed into the Academy uniform. After getting ready, I walked out of the building.
Surprisingly, there was no one here. I thought people from the Gale Faction would come here.
Then I started to head to the dining hall. When I reached the dining hall. I saw Ernest was waiting for me. He seems to be completely fine.
A hint of relied flashes in my eyes.
"Ernest, are you okay?" I asked.
Ernest responded with a smile before replying, "Well, I'm alright. I spent many hours in gravity training yesterday."
Hearing that my eyes flickered. Looks like he is really into training.
Then we walked into the hall.
"Uh?" I raised my eyebrows, spotting the people from the Gale Faction. Especially the female warrior and a slender-looking male warrior.
Those two spoke to me yesterday. Don't tell me they are here on purpose.
I ignored them and walked up to the food counter. After receiving the food, we found a nearby seat to sit down.
Ernest noticed the presence of many Gale Faction warriors. They are looking in their direction.
"Zack, did something happen?" He asked.
Sigh~
Hearing that I let out a small sigh.
"Do you know Vina Potkins?" I asked back.
Ernest was dumbfounded hearing that. Of course, he knew the name. She is one of the talented warriors in the Gale Faction.
But her strength was at the Elite stage. Suddenly, he thought of something. He looked at Zack in confusion.
At the same time, I saw through his thoughts.
"Yes!"
"People from the Gale Faction came to see me yesterday. Looks like the person I mentioned just now wants to challenge me," I replied.
"Another duel challenge?" Ernest asked back.
Seeing that I revealed a bitter smile on my face. At this point, no one in the Elite Stage could challenge me.
But people still want me to test me out.
Meanwhile,
The Gale Faction warriors have already spotted the duo. The female warrior gave a cold snort.
"Harumph"
"He is here. And I don't think he will agree to the challenge," She said.
The slender-looking male warrior frowned. He looked at the duo before turning toward the entrance.
"Where is Vina?" He asked.
"If Zack leaves right now, then it will be difficult to confront him again," He added further.
Hearing that the face of the remaining warriors turned serious.
10 minutes later,
We walked out of the dining hall. Surprisingly, the Gale faction group didn't follow us back.
"What are your plans for today?" Ernest asked.
Hearing that, I thought it was better to train in the gravity room today.
"Let's go to the training room," I said to Ernest.
Then we started heading toward the gravity room. Soon we reached the 2nd academy building.
When we entered the building, Our appearance attracted a lot of attention. I saw many of them looking at Ernest in a weird gaze. But none of them dared to say anything.
Ignoring them, we walked towards the gravity training area. Soon we reached the room. Inside there are many gravity training chambers.
We spotted two empty rooms.
"Alright, let's go," Ernest said.
I nodded at him before walking toward the gravity chamber.
I scanned my ID before entering the room.
Outside,
One more person walked into the room. He is none other than Michael Blevins. Michael Blevins looked around.
Before coming here, he heard everyone talking about Zack and Ernest.
"Looks like they have entered the room," He said to himself.
