LEGEND OF ELEMENTALISM

CHAPTER 5: COMPETITION

Really? Because you are better in combat does not mean am not . Mike said

I just said you need to improve, okay .John said.

Okay well, how are you so good at combat, don't tell me it's your bloodline Mike said.

My dad taught me combat, and endurance, sometimes I help my dad in forging so I naturally have strength,

My dad has twins powers : strength and telekinesis, so he chose blacksmith as a career, and am not sure if it's my bloodline or not.

Forge ? Are you a blacksmith ? Mike exclaimed.

No, am not, I just assist my dad sometimes, but I do know one or two about it .

Okay, but why didn't you learn it, I really hope that you could forge for me in the future. Mike said

Oh, really? John scratch his head awkwardly, Well I want to create my own legacy, my dad is a blacksmith, my mom a healer, I want to join the military, and become a pilot, in the future and also protect those who need my help, in the future, I want that to be my legacy and not blacksmith, so I didn't really put much attention to it

Whoa, me too, I want to join the military, but am not sure if I want to be a pilot, but in the future I will know. But all I can say is that you should do what you want. Mike said.

Well, let's be friends in the future too, John said.

Sure, I won't forget a good friend, let's be besties in the future okay. Mike said.

Sure, good night, I am going to meditate, John said.

Yeah good night, don't stress that pretty face of yours too much, I am going to meditate too, so good night, Mike said.

___________________________

It has been days since John started school, on the weekends he went to meet the eight elders.

Joseph was pleased to see him, how have you been little one, Joseph asked.

Am fine thank you teacher, John replied.

Welcome, let's test your current stage, Rachel said.

What level are you now, Johnson asked.

Level 7 John answered.

Perception and strength, Rachel asked.

Perception :60

Strength : 60.9 John answered.

When was the last you check your result, Joseph asked.

Last upper week Tuesday, John answered.

Well, let's go check, Joseph told him.

And John followed Joseph.

They got to a machine very much different from the one he used the last time, this kind can bring out all the three results, at once.

Joseph told him to put his both hand on the finger print that is on the machine and when he did, the machine brought out his details.

John Lincoln's results;

Strength: 70. 7

Perception: 60.

Level: 7.7

You can do more, Rachel said.

Yes, we are expecting good things from you. Joseph said.

Let's see your best shot , Joseph said.

Yes elder, John said.

He put on his combat stance.

Joseph did not move an inch, he stood where he is, looking at John .

John controlled the air around him and use it to fire an attack against Joseph, but it is as if Joseph is impenetrable, and all the attacks he fired is pointless, it ended up draining his energy, till he ran out of energy.

Joseph stood were he was until John ran out of energy, then he said, not bad, you are starting somewhere, you need to find a partner to train with, but I am much powerful than you are, so am not your candidate, but i know that when you grow up you will become powerful than me. Let me give you an advice, know your enemy so you can crush them, as for your subordinate, know them, so you can find their weaknesses, and then weakening them, understood.

Yes sir, John replied with a small bow.

He clearly understood what elder Joseph said and was grateful for the advice.

You can take your leave now Joseph said.

Yes elder, John replied and left.

What do you think of him, Rachel asked, Joseph.

He is not bad, he is special, i can feel it, Joseph replied.

He is inhuman, I mean he just got here and he is almost in level 8, he is increasing incredibly fast, his strength and perception is not bad too. Johnson said.

That's why I said that he is special, Joseph said with a smirk, on his face.

....................

Four Months has gone and it's already half of the month of the year, people in class 1,2, and 3 are stepping up to go to the next class especially those that registered late in class 1, they are being put under pressure by their class teachers.

..

John and Mike got to school early, as usual.

Then their class teacher announced that there is going to be a competition among other schools, and this class is chosen to represent this school.

So I am going to choose four students from this class because of the competition, and I will only choose the best. Sometimes I wonder why they choose this class to compete, because 1b is better than you, so I want you guys to give it your all, because before the end of this year i want you guys to reach level 20, only if you want you your junior to meet you in 1a, do you ? Daniel said with authority.

No teacher, They all said .

Good, he replied.

And why i say you're lacking is because many of class 1b has passed average, while majority of you people are still lurking around average, and am hoping that when next I check your result you will pass my expectations. This morning is when you are will fight yourselves, and as I have said I will only choose the best. All of you follow me, Daniel said.

This time around he took them to a large combat room, and continued to talk.

I will give you your candidate myself, not the other way around. Then he moved forward to sit on his chair before turning around and said : there is no rules, anyone with serious injury will be cured with pills.

Those with special abilities can be healed instantly with a pill called healing pill, it's a special medicine which cures any type of injury instantly.

So they are not surprised because they know that even though they break all the bones in their bodies they can be cured instantly, It's just that it is very expensive, so they all know now that their teacher is not ordinary.

NOTE: pills are have different categories , injury pills, regeneration pills, regenerate pills and so on, but except from regeneration pills, healing pills is the most expensive and senior to all, it requires a master with 100 level to be made. Creation of medicines is made by those who studied pharmacology.

You can all begin Daniel said after he as gave everyone their partners.

John defeated his partner easily, he has gotten stronger this past few months so he is quite powerful and again he's perception is more than theirs which gave him more advantage than theirs, so is his strength .

Seven hours, later.

Bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang ban bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang.

Many have already been defeated. It only remains four people in the combat room, others have been thrown outside some sustain injuries, some minor while some didn't, they all did their best.

Daniel as curious about who will be the last man standing even though they all tried. He gave them pill to regain their posture, then focus on the four people who is on the combat stage.

John is fighting with Dan, while Mike is fighting with Sarah, she seem to be small but powerful .

Dan power is control, he can control things around him, which makes things quite difficult for John.

Squish, squish, squish..

Every thing is crushing down but it didn't meet John, John remembered what elder Joseph said , he said know you subordinate, and use their weaknesses against them, Dan is not John enemy so he did not take him as an enemy.

John stood on the ground and started controlling the temperature of the air, before Dan knows, that all the things that he controlled against John has completely gone up, and he suddenly found himself in the Air, he knows what happening, he knows that John's controlling the Air around them, but before he could regain his posture to counter-attack, he found himself on the ground.

Dan weaknesses is not overconfidence, he underestimated John, and didn't think John could be his candidate, even though John result was more than he's before, he didn't place John in his eyes, because he has gotten stronger, so he think that he has surpassed John and that John's achievement before is based purely on luck.

John has already targeted him, he knows that Dan wanted to get it over with and send him out of the ring that's why he threw all those rocks like rain fall, so he increase the temperature of his power which make all Dan's power to be floating in the air including Dan, completely catching him off guard, making him to fall.

Dan fell hardly to the ground, the noise it made when Dan fell, can give an ordinary person an heart attack.

Bang bang bang bang.

Dan felt like all his bone has crumbled into pieces, he was like ten feet in the air, if it is an ordinary human, it's instant death. He underestimated John, he knows it know, but there is nothing he could do about it, because in real combat, ones must not underestimate ones opponent.

John is already stressed out, it took him a lot of power and energy to carry both dan and those plenty rocks in the air.

He came down from the combat stage, and went to observe Mike and Sarah's fight.

Dan is already looking like vegetable on the ground which means that he have won.

Daniel give Dan an healing pill, immediately Dan broken bones has healed, and gone back to it place, the pill healed him totally and regained his lost energy. He handed one to John, because he looked drained , immediately he took it he regained his lost energy.

Sarah and Mike are the only one on the combat, stage now.

Fire and earth.

Sarah's fire, while Mike is earth.

Looks like non of them wants to give up.

one of the students said while looking at them.

Maybe, I doubt if any will win among them, another student replied.

What are you guys talking about, I bet Mike will win, another student interrupted.

These two topics have become an hot topic now, many are saying who will win, some say it's Mike, that will win while some girls also says it's Sarah.

Mike's sweat is dropping like beads, because of the heat.

While Sarah is getting exhausted.
