"how are they still extending their lead when I'm here fighting like a madman"
"I didn't expect joining in a team could have such a huge advantage "
"Although that phoenix's mouth is vicious, she is really strong, paired with Yuki's archery it's easy for her to get points despite also being solo candidate" said as he saw Yuki placement points continuimg to surge.
"although those condensed spiraling swords are strong, In the end it's not an innate skill or martial art, it can't do much against strong monsters who can attack from far away"
"damn it I could upgrade my Battle Flame armor with my points now but these damn monsters won't give me the chance "Flare said as pierced the skull of a wolf trying to sneak attack him
More and more monster wolves started to surround Flare putting him into difficult position. Performing his own version of the basic sword move, the basic flame sword move, he madly sliced apart all the incoming wolves, covering his body in wolf's blood.The examinees in the surrounding was shocked seeing Flare's brutality.
....
On the high wall that surrounded the camp, elder Lei and the two elders looked into the direction of the monster horde, although it was very far away to see for a normal humans because of the tall trees and uneven terrain of the forbidden forest , they could see everything in the battlefield clearly.
"That kid from the ouyang clan isn't half bad " Elder rosa the middle aged female elder said
"He is pretty good but if he wasn't in a team he couldn't have made top 5 "
"luck and wealth is also a talent".
"You really picked up some rare good talents from that backward blue planet brother Lei"
" that little girl's archery is really superb, matched with her summoning talent, in the same rank she won't really have an opponent"
"You even found a Growth type talent, what's going on with the blue planet"
"That red hair boy is also pretty good, his Flames seems a bit special, if his talent can evolve some more and get a innate skill he might have been able to enter top 10"
"You underestimate him, I think he can enter top 5"
"Although his harmony with his talent might be higher than the other kids, in the end they already have a S class talent, he is only at C class now" Elder Rosa said
"Since you are so confident why not bet your jade Palace on on it " Elder Lei said
"Humph you greedy old man you still have your eyes on my jade Palace "
"stop the agruing We will see now, that kid is about to encounter an earth dragon which is half step monster general " old man sung the other elder said with interest

" What the hell is this luck" Flare's face looked downcast as he spoke,20 meters infront Flare, a large monster looked at him with ferocious eyes, it had a long brownish body about 10 meters long, it looked like a mixture between a lizard and a dragon, that flare saw in textbooks back at his high school. The surrounding monsters strangely avoided this area causing a weird circle with Flare and the earth dragon as the center to form in the monster horde.
As Flare and the earth dragon faced off 5 youths appeared. " kid if you don't want to die leave this earth dragon to us"
"Don't think because you kill some weak Wolves you are strong, young master Liam is ninth on the rankings"
"ohh... Liam Becker" Flare said with some understanding
"Humpph since you know, hurry and leave here "Liam said arrogantly
" don't blame me for being impolite if you take one step further "Flare said with a cold tone.
" You... " one of the youths stammered as he shivered under the pressure from Flare.
"good.... I will make you regret this "Liam Becker said as he decided to retreat.
...
" why did we retreat , let's just kill him and take down that monster ourselves , we can get over 50 points from killing that monster"
"shut up!!!, you're so stupid, do think no one is monitoring us, after we kill him do you think we can escape the battle god Palace"
"that kid won't be able to take down that monster alone anyway, he is only at Mid stage spirit concentration realm"
"Let's hope he can draw out some of the monsters abilities before we fight it "
...
As Flare was distracted, the earth dragon charged towards him with a very fast speed, and attacked him with it's huge claw trying to rip him into shreds.Flare urgently used the basic sword move, second style 'block', with that he only managed to barely parry the attack, but he was still sent tumbling backwards.
He felt his hands tremble as he stood back up,Flare had no time to rest as the earth dragon attacked him again, this time with it's tail, but because he was so close he couldn't dodge , he could only use the second sword move again.
Just like before he was sent flying, this time his strong body couldn't take the impact as he coughed up blood.
As he was adjusting himself for the earth dragon's next attack, he sensed the monsters that was previously avoiding this area, started moving towards him from all directions and attacked him, but this time they attacked him like well trained troops in an army, all Flare's routes of retreat was cut off leaving only one path for him, that was walking over their corpse, causing an earth shaking battle.
"Dammit what kind of ability is this" Flare cursed
...
*Liam PoV*
"Young master Liam not only are you powerful your wisdom is greater than the rest" One of the lackeys said with praise as he watched Flare stuggle
"that is what happens to you when you overestimate yourself " Liam said with a smile
"Luckily that kid was arrogant, or else that would be us now not him" Liam breathed a sigh of relief
"Wait... What are those Flames, I can feel it from here "
....
The scattered bodies of different monsters burnt to ashes giving Flare alot of burning points, however more more monsters kept rushing towards him not reducing the pressure on him.
"there's no need to hold back anymore... Dragon Flame armor!! "
The surrounding temperature rose immediately as Flare's body was set a blaze. Just like before the flames burned his clothes to ashes thankfully the armor covered his body quickly saving him from embarrassing himself.
With slash of his burning heavy sword the incoming monsters were cut down like a hot knife cutting through butter. Flare skillfully weaved his way through the swarming monsters finally breaking the encirclement.
The pressure coming from Flare's body caused an unknown fear to rise within the earth dragon, under the pressure long long lost his previous composure, the monsters he controlled started to become chaotic making it easier for Flare to dodge.
With a sudden burst of speed, Flare arrived before the earth dragon and stab toward It's eyes.
The earth dragon screamed in pain as it didn't manage to dodge the attack. Now that the earth dragon couldn't see Flare used the basic sword move again and pierced the earth dragon's head. As the struggling cries of the earth dragon died down,Flare didn't bother burn it's body, he had a hunch that the earth dragon's body would be useful to him.
