Chapter 40 SPIRIT WEAPON CLASS, 102
Standing in the center of the training hall, Sir Raymond stood with yellow aura surging upwards, his dark robe flaring, and two spiked weapons glowing with intense.
His opponents, his students, stood at the far end.
Nineteen students in a semi circle.
Colorful auras blazing.
Lan stood in their middle, assuming command, breathing hard, but the playful smile never left his face..
Behind them, three students stood; Anya Sylver and Lunar, like a second defense line, eyes sharp, and bodies glowing with pink, silver and purple energy.
Anya had brought out a great sword from her storage ring and gripping it with both hands. A master of multiple weapons she was.
Sylver held shield tightly, eyes sharp, with her usual deep frown. Multiple battle simulations were running through her mind as she tried decipher the teacher's next move.
Purple lightning and aura surged furiously around Lunar's body as he gripped his twin swords ⚔️ tightly. He smirked, ready to use his immerse speed anytime.
Above them, a thick red cloud of energy formed and was spreading fast, like one of nature calamity, threatening to cover the entire hall.
Deep red lightning surged in waves, obviously cannot wait to descend on its unlucky target.
The source of this unholy power stood at the very back with body glowing with red spirit energy.
Romans long hair flustered as lightning surge through it with intensity.
Roman knew he was expending too much energy, but at this moment, it was worth it.
He smirked as his eyes locked with Sir Raymond.
"He looks strangely familiar...
Sir Raymond thought, but discarded the thought.
He didn't plan to extend the fight to this degree, but the students had surprised him and he let the trill of the battle encapsulate him..
The hall was heavy with pressure..
Silent, but not calm in anyway.
The sound of auras clashing filled the air..
Then...
The teacher moved..
Too fast for any of the students to see..
BANG.. CRACK....
BANG..
CRACK...
Sir Raymond raised a brow..
What the....
He was above them..
Some distance away from Roman..
Earlier, sylver had guessed that he would attack Roman first and therefore break their formation.
So she had used a new ability of hers, the ability to create forcefields.
Oblivious to the students and sir Raymond, she had created two invisible forcefields.
One was outward, covering the whole students with Roman at the rare.
The second one was inward, covering her group also with Roman behind.
Sir Raymond sudden burst of speed had destroyed the first forcefield unintended, and also the second.
His descent had slowed a second after he destroyed the second.
"What the...
But that one tiny second was enough for Lunar to move.
BLITZZZZZZ
Lunar, like a wolf, a predator , had very sharp senses and sight
He had seen the forcefields appeared at the very beginning.
As soon as he heard the second one destroyed, he moved..
Purple lightning surged..
He appeared right in front of Sir Raymond and brought his twin swords in a cross slash...
CLANG..
Sir Raymond deflected with one of his spike blade..
Then Anya blinked and appeared behind Sir Raymond with her great sword coming down in a vertical slash.
CLANG..
The later turned at the last minute and blocked it with his second spike blade.
Lunar wasted no time as he had already blistzed and appeared above Sir Raymond with both blades coming down with surging lightning.
Anya appeared by Lunar's side and brought her sword down with both hands.
In a quick motion, Sir Raymond raised his spiked blade to parry the incoming attacks...
But at that last moment.. a strange weight descended upon sir Raymond's hand, cause his defense to flatter.
CLANG...
Lunar's twin swords had collided with Sir Raymond's spike blade..
But...
Anya's great sword had collided with against his chest..
BANG...
Sir Raymond flew back and landed on his feet.
Everything had happened so fast, but the rest of the students didn't flatter..
The air turned chilly as white ice suddenly spurt up from the ground and caught Sir Raymond's boots.
But it didn't stop there, the ice seemed to have a mind of his own as it layers doubled, rushing up to Sir Raymond's waist and froze solid.
Bryon smiled with both hands stretched forward with ice particles all over.
"I can't hold on much longer he's too powerful"
He said.
"Everyone!"
Lan yelled.
"Attack with everything you've got. Use your Spirit beasts!!"
"Right!"
The students responded as they began to summon their animal spirits.
Billy's aura surged upwards and his bear appeared.
It roared and rushed forward.
Carl's orange leopard burst forward with a roar and followed behind.
A white bear appeared from Bryon and moved.
A large purple cat appeared from Sarah and rushed forward.
All around the training hall different from of spirit beasts began to appear..
A bull, a gorilla, horse, eagle...
Different form of attack beast glowing with divers colors rushed to the frozen teacher.
Sir Raymond's smile widened as he watched multiple spirit beasts on a stampede towards him..
"Come on then.."
His aura surged again and the ice shattered..
He held his spike blade firmly with as the first beast reached him.
His blade flashed with intensity.
BOOM..
The first spirit beast exploded into sparks as it came in contact with the spike blade.
BOOM...
Another one followed...
BOOM...
And another..
BOOM..
Another another...
Sir Raymond was like an hurricane as he slashed through the massive spirit beasts one after the other.
Lan gathered his last reserve of energy
"I still have enough strength for one more summon"
His body glowed a bright green and unleashed his spirit beast against, for the third time today..
The elephant's trumpet filled the air again as it's massive being burst out in a stampede.
Lan groaned as he dropped on one knee, completely spent.
Spirit Beasts were massive in size, but there were some that were more gigantic in size.
Lan's elephant was the biggest so far..
Wilder..
And the said beast was on a stampede towards Sir Raymond.
Raymond raised his brows slightly as he stared at the massive mammoth like beast charging behind multiple other spirit beasts.
"You again.."
He was surprised
He slashed another beast, sending it into rays of sparks.
Ten more were still rushing forward, the elephant not included.
Sir Raymond laughed as he ready himself to unleash more power.
Then suddenly...
In a blink...
The eleven incoming spirit disappeared..
With no trace..
As if they were never there..
Huh..
Sir Raymond paused..
Anya flicked her wrist to the right..
Then suddenly...
The eleven spirit beats appeared...
Directly at the right side of Sir Raymond.
Sir Raymond quickly but was a tad slow..
BAM..
A white Rhino slammed its deadly horns against his chest..
Argh...
Sir Raymond flew back, crashed against the hard wall, but quickly Landed on his feet then brought both spike blades down.
BOOM..
The Rhino exploded into sparks.
He then sent multiple waves of slashes forward..
BOOM..BOOM..BOOM.....
Explosions rang as the spirit beasts exploded into rays of colorful sparks..
But the massive elephant still charged forward...
With deadly tucks pointed out..
Sir Raymond quickly Impaled his spike blades into the floor, and..
He stretched his hands forward, planted his foot down, and caught the elephant's large tusks with both hands.
BAM...
The force of the elephant was still enough to push him backwards therefore slamming his back into the wall.. again.
Still, he held the elephant's tusks and they both locked in a power tussle.
Man and beast.
But in the context...
Beast Master and Spirit Beasts..
The wall began to crack...
And at that moment....
Roman snapped his glowing eyes opened..
And smirked..
It was time...
And he was all set...
