My Space-Time System

95 Hellish to Abysmal.

When the match was signaled to start, golden flames began surging from Luciano's hands, while Haldor pumped his muscles and awaited the attack.

When the flames were meters from Haldor, He clapped his hands together and surprisingly, an earth wall erupted from below.

"He is already at the champion realm!!" A student close to Blake blurted out in shock.

'Seems am not the only one in the champion realm…' Blake was slightly surprised because knew he wasn't the only one with secrets and trump cards.

Luciano was unfazed as he kept on pouring in mana, causing the flames to crash into the unmoving moving wall, but before anyone knew what was going on, the flames squirmed and bypassed the rock wall heading for Haldor.

"Like I said you are cocky…" Haldor sneered at the incoming golden flames and shot out his orange flame, causing them to counter each other.

'Why do I have a feeling that Luciano's flames were put out so easily?' Having gotten a close view of how powerful the golden flames, Blake didn't need his high perception to know something was up.

[I must say Luciano is one hell of a cunny b*stard, but this Haldor of a kid has more muscles for brains.

Like the beast boy, said it would have been pretty stupid to use the same tactics he had used in the awakening test.

This time the golden flames going around the wall weren't to win the match, but for him to show his trump cards and the numbskull brought out everything on display. Now Luciano knows he is in the champion realm eliminates all surprises and with the knowledge of his second element he can make further plans.] Just like a chess engine the system quickly analyzed the reason for Luciano's actions.

"Now, it's my turn." He said with a smirk on his face as he dashed towards Luciano while casting earth rendering to increase speed as he slid on the slippery floor.

When he got within range, he cast earth rendering again turning the ground below Luciano into quicksand before conjuring a rock more than a meter thick, before using his momentum to launch it towards Luciano with a powerful kick.

Although his mana perception wasn't as good as that of Blake, Luciano didn't need to look down to see the ground was about to turn to quicksand.

Without panicking, Luciano used the fire around to increase the surrounding temperature so much that the loose ground was turned glass. Seeing the flaming rock was a few moments from slamming into him, Luciano employed the same technique used by Blake and cast 2 mini flame bursts propelling him out of the way in the nick of time.

But all this was part of Haldor's plan, when Luciano dodged the flaming rock with the mini flame bursts, Haldor launched himself forward with a flameburst appearing in front of Luciano who was still in mid-air with his right fist enveloped in flames.

'Got you now!' Luciano being in mid-air made it impossible for him to dodge the attack and even if he decided to protect himself with a wall of flame, the flames weren't solid and Haldor was ready to get burnt to end the fight.

"Too predictable…" Luciano said with an indifferent expression with a hint of disappointment.

"Gale blast…" Luciano said in a flat tone as a ball of wind formed in between them, before it exploded sending Haldor flying away while pushing him so meters back.

Having lost interest in the match, Luciano thought it was high time he ended the match. He raised his hands igniting the golden flames still lingering on the battleground.

The flames heeded the ignitor's call, as they increased in size before squirming towards the groggy Haldor. When they got to him, he had regained his senses but it was already too late.

"Be gone!" Luciano clenched both fists causing the glow of the golden flames to increase, indicating they were about to blow!

BOOM!

The sound of the explosion rang all around the training grounds causing most of the students to gasp in shock as they tries to see past the thick smoke to make sure Haldor wasn't dead.

When the smoke had finally settled, they saw Haldor enveloped in a purple flaming halo as he curled up in a ball using his hands to protect his head.

"Winner Luciano. Minus 300 points from the loser Haldor for wasting both our time, Plus 300 to Luciano." Instructor Zirrack said with a yawn as he stepped into a warp get and left the training grounds.

"That was quick but exciting…" Blake thought

[That makes more sense…] The system said in a pondering tone.

'What makes sense?' Blake asked.

[If you noticed the move he used in both the awakening test and now defied the laws of realms…] Seeing that Blake wasn't following the system had to continue. [In the warrior realm a cultivator can't use the power of his will even if he knew everything about it, which means he shouldn't have been able to make the flames go around the girls' water barrier back in the awakening test because it broke the rules of realms.]

'That means to achieve that effect he had used the wind element to direct the flames… That's ingenious!' Blake was amazed by the system's revelation.

[Exactly, and him keeping his second element a secret will make the enemy unable to handle the situation well. I must say he is worthy to be a member of the royal family.] The system acknowledged Luciano's strength.

'Well, there's no need to keep the secret since he is not able to bend his flames with his will.'

Just like he had thought, Luciano was already an ignitor, because there was no way the rank 4 will be higher than the rank 2 in realm.

'The reason he didn't want any share of the spoils back in the forest wasn't fully as an act of goodwill but because he had more than enough. Be it beast cores or gold coins, they were all at his beck and call.' Right now, Luciano was a walking bank.

"This is to all those trying to get into the top 3, I won't go easy." Luciano's short but powerful message y sent chills down the spine of all those below the top 3.

After his speech, he walked up to Blake under the gaze of everyone before they both left for the canteen reinforcing the rumors of them being close friends.

"What was the speech for?" Blake asked as he was munching down on the creamy chicken stew.

"It is to scare away those who just want to waste our time and to also instill fear into the hearts of those who are strong enough to face us, thereby giving us an edge over them." Luciano said with a smirk.

"Mind games, I see…" Blake chuckled.

When they were done with lunch, they waited for some time before heading to the training class for advanced combat class.

Instructor Zirrack's appearance marked the start of the class and just like professor Gibson, he told them that the school was disappointed by their performance in the survival test.

He also brought with him a piece of bad news for the students but good news for him. The news was that the school had permitted him to step up the difficulty of his training and that meant more time was given to his class and the student's training will go from hellish to abysmal.

After their usual exercises, live beasts were brought to the training grounds. The exercise of the day was for the students to fight against a beast one vs one.

The exercise aimed to get these students to overcome the fears of beasts' majority had shown in the survival exercise.

Blake and almost all of those in the top 20 passed the exercise with ease and those who weren't able to defeat the beast matched up against them had their points deducted for the instructor saving their lives and they were also given more hellish exercises to complete.

When the class was finally over, some had fainted and were taken to the light department for healing, while some had to be carried back to their rooms by their friends.

As for Blake, all over his body was aching but he was still able to return to his room, the problem was that when his body met his bed his mind drifted off to dreamland.

The rest of the days quickly passed by and Blake couldn't help but thank God that it was finally his class-free day.

The week had been a very difficult one, not only because of instructor Zirrack but all their professors. They all told them the same thing which made their lives more stressful.

A lot of students had been punished and had gotten their points deducted, while some had broken down due to Zirrack's torture, but it was finally time for him to rest and hunt beasts.
