She was like Death

"You go and run away and find somewhere safe. I'll get this one's attention and deal with it."
This is fun. I haven't encountered monsters since back in my original world.
The black panther slowly growls seeing the boy stepping away but its attention was caught by someone with a dangerous presence charging towards it. When it saw her, it bends its hind legs and pounce to meet her.
"Heh." Nesrin let out a smirk and twirl the spear before stopping those open jaws that were threatening to bit off a chunk of her flesh.
'This is going to be good training.'
From the side of her eye, she saw Karl escaping in the distance. However, there was a dark shadow approaching behind him.
"Karl!" In urgency, Nesrin called out. Her hand instinctively raise and long fat vines were released from the glowing bracelet on her wrist.
SLAP!
The vine made a resounding slap to the ground taking the monster's attention away from Karl.
Karl who thought he was running faster looked back to see a monster that is covered in black liquid. Its big eye turns to Nesrin, successfully getting its attention.
"Karl! Go! I won't be able to unleash my full potential if you stay!" Nesrin shouted.
'But please don't think that you were a nuisance.'
"Behind you!"
CLANG!---
The spear's black blade blocked the panther's claw and a great force caused by the impact burst out.
A huge crater appeared before the human and the panther, some trees were destroyed, and the water created a huge rippled.
At the same time, an inhumane cry came out from the black blob monster while its tar was dripping from its body.
Karl jumped out and avoided the smoking black liquid that might burn his skin if touched. Danger warning keeps alarming in his mind.
Karl's head snaps back in Nesrin's direction. His eyes wide open, his mouth was left agape.
"This is no time to stay rooted on the spot! Get away from here!" Nesrin shouted once more.
Now that she has both the monster's attention, it was time for Karl to stay the f**k away from this place.
The vines grow multiple vines and they stretch towards the blob monster. However, the vines recoiled and was turn charred black.
'Shit.'
A hundred steeled green leaves or perhaps more flowed out from the spatial bangle and produces a wall around her being.
It surrounds her body like a tornado bringing an ominous swishing sound.
A few of the steeled leaves scratch the black panther's under eyes and large body and blood trickled from its wound. While the others disintegrated before it reaches the blob monster.
However, the wind still releases a while roar as Nesrin flew towards the blob monster. Orange spiritual energy and golden sparks enveloped Nesrin's and flew towards it like a torpedo.
Her blade slashes the blob monster into two.
Even so. It didn't die.
On the other hand, while Nesrin was on move, the black panther was also following behind her. Its large body jump up and its eyes glinted watching over Nesrin. Its claw gleaming menacingly reaching out towards Nesrin's small back.
However, before it could hit Nesrin, her body disappeared and reappeared behind it.
Swish swish swish!
Enlarge vines came out from her wrist again and extend their ways towards the agile panther. The panther swiftly moves to evade the vines that were targeting its neck.
The panther landed on the ground slowly and leisurely. A puff of air came out of its nose arrogantly and a predatory gaze landed on her.
Nesrin had a feeling that it was laughing and mocking her.
...
At the same time back in the academy, Edunno watched the screen in disbelief.
An orange rank?
Are you f*****g kidding me?
His right arm that was being treated trembled.
She was one level lower than me. Though it was one rank lower, the disparity between ranks was no joke. It's like heaven and earth.
Edunno cannot believe it.
If he compared their strengths, Edunno could feel that Nesrin is stronger than him!
How is that even possible?! What does this even mean?!
Everyone looked at Edunno and laughed at him in mockery.
"Edunno, you were defeated by an orange starter? How funny!"
"Wow, you're an embarrassment, Edunno!"
"I used to admire you but damn. How could you be defeated by an orange level? How embarrassing."
"Shameful."
Edunno's face turns green, red the next, and then black in an instant.
They weren't the ones fighting in there.
Even if he was a level higher than that new student, she exceeded his expectation. Nesrin was stronger.
It doesn't matter how his cultivation was rank higher than her. It was a fact he only knew that he almost lose his life in the hands of such a dainty woman.
She was like death.
And she almost caught him.
"You don't understand. You won't ever understand." Edunno replied.
He wasn't embarrassed by throwing down the towel. He was just relieved that he did so. What matters right now is that he was alive and experience the taste of death.
"You don't know what it felt like fighting with her. I wouldn't be so surprised if I came to know you all end up dead without knowing how." Edunno closed his lips wanting to speak no more.
Underestimating someone could kill them. Ignorance is the same.
Edunno watched them rolled their eyes at him and did not listen to his 'excuses'. They all thought he chickened out at their duel. But he was too lazy to explain to such people who would not listen to him at all.
If they didn't want to believe him, forget it. What's the point?
Edunno stared at the screen above that was especially focus on Nesrin's, not interested in watching the other challengers. He wasn't even interested in watching Prince Zephyr's side.
