Ten Thousand Forces
Almost a hairs breath away from Rann.
The descending sky froze.
The river of time froze.
The horizon bended.
Everything turned gray and twisted. But then, Rann was instantly elevated.
Rann himself was confused. He understood that he was supposed to be dead but... what in the world was happening?
Had he reached the age of the Realm of Sky?
If yes then he would be able to rule it.
He remembered that Jake himself had not even found the hidden dimension. He had anticipated it, but had not gotten a glimpse.
Rann let out a small laugh.
Right now, his body was drenched with blood.
Then, after he had been elevated the river of time resumed it's flow and the descending sky crashed. Everything was incinerated.
The sky released pieces of spatial cracks that fell inciting chaos on land.
A terrible explosion rocked the universe but right now, Rann was above it all as he observed the destruction of Realm of Sky.
Then, in a minute or so the land became desolate... the river of time instantly ceased only to replay from the very beginning again from when the blazing sun descended on the earth.
Rann sighed but before he could say anything more, his body vanished and he saw himself in a deserted land...
It was actually a desert.
"Is this.. Realm of Sky?"
Then he took the first step only for a strange vision to plague his mind.
He saw a strange human who's innate bloodline was strength. His fist struck the ground, creating ripples of power that reduced everything into chaos.
His powers was nothing more than raw strength.
His energy reserves also seemed to be a bottomless abyss.
And then,
A layer of purple circle covered his entire body like a bubble of strength... He pounded the ground and the impact was increased to tenfold.
Then from purple, the circle became green as the next force pounded the ground, increasing his strength to hundredfold and splitting the ground in two halves.
Lastly, another layer of color covered the green and it was silver.
An intense might caused both heaven and earth to collapse.
One fist, the land crumpled. One fist, the sky shattered... one fist, everything was reduced to ashes.
That moment, Rann's eyes opened and after all he had seen he remembered that what he saw is one of the special ability one can learn from Realm of Sky and it was Ten Thousand Forces.
Rann learnt from Jake that the Realm of Sky could provide three powerful techniques such as Aureline Force, Forcefield and Illusions. But he had just discovered another technique and it seems like, it was the first that actually came to him.
Rann smiled, but his smile faded the minute his body shifted through realms... he was outside the dimension.
Even after returning to the ruins of Realm of Sky, Rann never moved an inch.
He tried to comprehend Ten Thousand Forces.
He stood there the first three days.. Nothing!
The next ten days.. Still nothing!
But after one month, a strange colorless energy wrapped around him.
This was merely the beginning stage of Ten Thousand Forces.
Rann finally opened his eyes. His one month in the Realm of Sky ruins was worthwhile.
...
When Rann stepped out, countless people was shocked.
At first, Rann was confused... but then after inquiring, he realized that the senior whom Rann had defeated had spread rumors of him finding the hidden dimension of Realm of Sky.
When Silverton learnt that Rann was there... he had already lost hope of Rann's survival. No one survives the flow of river of time.
Especially when experiencing what had destroyed the Realm of Sky itself.
But seeing Rann step out caused commotion once again.
"Did he not die?"
"The destruction of the Realm of Sky was supposed to destroy him! What happened?"
"He might have seized control of Realm of Sky!"
Rann heard many voices gossips. But he did not want to answer any useless question. First, he need to see Silverton and then Justus.
...
"Did you comprehend anything?"
Silverton asked not actually expecting anything from Rann.
Rann was silent for a while before answering.
"Yes."
Silverton was shocked.
Infact, he couldn't hide his shock...
"Y- you comprehended something?"
It was hard to believe.
Rann shrugged and used Ten Thousand Forces.
The colorless circle of bubble encroached him and the force was enough to cause distortion all around.
Meanwhile, Silverton's eyes widened even more...
What was he seeing?
"T— ten Thousand Forces..."
Of course he only knew about Aureline Force, Forcefield and Illusions... but why was there Ten Thousand Forces. Plus Rann had comprehended it?
It was simply unbelievable.
"Actually, I almost died in the River of time. Time went in reverse that I was able to see the powerful battle techniques that destroyed Realm of Sky. Have you ever experienced the Sky falling on you?"
Silverton's heart frosted all over.
"How did you survive?"
Rann became confused.
"I.. I don't know."
Meanwhile right outside Silverton's office, countless students were shocked including Jake... Rann managed to comprehend Ten Thousand Forces.
That was an invincible technique. He would definitely become unrivaled the minute he cultivates this force to it's peak.
Jake was instantly plunged in jealousy and envy.
This kid had arrived and was already stealing everything away... the spotlight, the attention, his titles... he used to be the one under the spotlight. It was quite infuriating.
Meanwhile, Silverton grabbed Rann and they left by tearing through the void.
Back at Rann's Mansion, the void twisted and Silverton stepped out with Rann.
When Justus saw them he left a small smile for Rann.
"Extreme Academy called me..."
Silverton froze...
His best student was about to be given away to Extreme Academy.
"Really?" Rann felt excited..
He have been hearing about this Academy for quite a while now and he wanted to know what was so special about it.
Justus turned to Silverton.
"I know you've tried for him... tutoring him from childhood, and taking him to your School a month ago..."
Silverton sighed.
"Yeah! I know he's Extreme Academy Material. They wouldn't see a talent and allow it to waste."
