6 Defeated in one attack

Flint started his first day as a celestial sword clan student by following the other junior students marching on the training field.

"There he is, the rumored new student, I heard he was a disciple of the former clan chief. He must be really strong!"

"I don't know. He looks ordinary, and his aura is so weak. Could it be that he's hiding his aura?"

"Hahaha. That's impossible! Only high-level sword masters can hide their aura. Other than the instructors, only some of the best senior disciples have mastered such techniques."

"Don't forget he is the disciple of the former clan chief. Likely, he's also on the same level as the seniors."

"Well, it's possible, that is if he is truly talented. No matter who the teacher is, if he has no talent? He's still weak."

"Hmm, that makes sense! Everything will be revealed when he takes up training or fights."

"What about the spiritual animal on his shoulders?"

"It looks impressive, but unfortunately it's still too early to be a useful spiritual animal. Well, even so, I admit she's quite lucky to have a rare spiritual animal baby."

Some of the students started talking about Flint, rumors of his arrival already spreading like wildfire.

While Flint himself could only smile bitterly, he never expected his existence to be revealed so quickly.

Everyone in this clan focused on sword skills, Flint wasn't too surprised, considering the name of this clan already showed its identity to produce sword masters.

He was sure there were no wizards or martial artists like his grandfather said.

In this world, people developed abilities according to their talents; wizards, swordsmen, and martial artists. They had their ways to develop their abilities and increase their levels.

While Flint had all three talents, he had an outstanding physique to become a martial artist, extremely powerful immortal black flame magic, and also the ability to learn the sword very quickly. That had been explained by his grandfather.

"Hey, Flint! You still remember your promise from last night, right? After the old man finishes his lecture, we'll have a sparring match, ok!" The figure of a yellow-haired youth stood to Flint's right while releasing a wide, cheerful smile.

Flint glanced at him helplessly, they were currently lined up in front of a senior instructor who was making a serious speech, but his companion seemed to be ignoring the situation.

"I don't know!" Flint muttered lightly with a flat face and kept facing the instructor, worried that he would be caught chatting.

"Come on Flint, a man should never run away from his promise! You already agreed." The young man asserted, clearly imposing his will while still smiling widely as if he were the happiest person in the world.

Hearing that, Flint's right eyebrow twitched, "I agreed because you're too noisy, otherwise? I might not have been able to sleep until now!" Flint said to himself as he recalled what happened in the dorm room last night.

"You maniac! Flint, you don't have to put up with him." Said another young man who was to Flint's left. His face was handsome and authoritative, he looked strong with his dark blue hair.

The two boys were Flint's roommates in the dormitory.

"Fucking Wade! I'm not talking to you!" The yellow-haired youth groaned like a beast and started to raise his sleeves.

"Idiot," Wade replied lightly and indifferently.

"Asshole!"

"Raiden... That..." Flint tried to whisper to alert his noisy yellow-haired partner.

But before Raiden could reply, the instructor had already appeared nearby with red eyes and smoke coming out of his head.

"You again! Lowly cockroach!" The instructor grabbed Raiden's head with one large palm and beat him on the spot.

After satisfying his student who had repeatedly made the same mistake, the instructor clapped his hands together and walked back to his place casually, as if nothing had happened.

Meanwhile, Raiden's face was already unrecognizable due to bruises and bumps.

Flint who saw that could only shudder in horror, while Wade smiled lightly, seemingly satisfied with the final result.

Finished with the instructor's speech, Flint began his sparring with Raiden. Meanwhile, the Phoenix King flew in the sky like an eagle, according to Flint's orders.

"Hehe, now I recognize you as a man. Let's see how strong the disciple of the former clan chief is!" Raiden smiled widely, setting up a fighting stance with the yellow sword in his right hand.

On the other hand, Wade was just watching lazily, but he wasn't alone, most of the students were also watching, and even some of the instructors were also curious about Wade's abilities.

Flint smiled lightly, he didn't expect to get to the stage in such a short time. He immediately picked up his sword, preparing to face Raiden who was a fighting maniac.

But before they started the fight. The arrival of another striking figure caused a commotion.

"Miss Elsa? Why did she come here?" Everyone was very surprised to see Elsa's arrival.

The students started giving her a lot of compliments, her beauty, talent, and level made her the youngest senior student.

As all the junior students knew, Elsa was the daughter of the clan chief and was the first-ranked student in the clan, she was known as the successor of the ice goddess because of her extraordinary talent.

Flint gave Elsa a misguided glance and turned his attention back to Raiden.

On the other hand, Raiden's eyes were glazed over, his face beaming. "I didn't expect the Goddess of my dreams to come out to see my fight, I won't let her down." He said confidently.

"Idiot!" Wade snorted at Raiden's stupidity. It made Raiden's eyebrows twitch to hear it.

"Flint, are you ready? I won't hold back!" Raiden said slightly arrogantly, his body instantly enveloped in a stinging yellow lightning aura.

Flint squinted, "Compared to my grandfather's aura, it's like earth and sky," he thought as he compared the pressure of Raiden's aura to his grandfather's aura.

But right now, he had a shocked face, and his arms were trembling along with his green sword as if frightened by Raiden's aura.

Everyone who saw Flint's demeanor was astonished, "Come on, don't tell me he's being frightened just by the aura released by Raiden?"

Elsa who saw that was also confused, earlier when she attacked Flint, Flint was very relaxed as if not affected by her aura.

Wussst!....

Raiden shot out like yellow lightning followed by the sound of lightning striking Flint.

Flint could follow Raiden's movements easily, but he remained silent as if he saw nothing.

And in an instant, Raiden was already in front of Flint, slashing his sword at Flint.

Flint quickly blocked the attack, but he was sent flying and fresh blood spurted from his chest.

Flint landed on the ground in front of the crowd, blood filling his mouth, and looking in great pain.

"Ehhh..." Everyone was stunned, "He was defeated in one attack?!"

"Flint!"

Raiden quickly darted toward Flint and helped him up, "Damn it! I'm overreacting." He quickly helped Flint up, lifting him onto his back and carrying him to the infirmary, while the crowd looked disappointed.

They had high hopes for Flint, and almost all of them thought that Flint would win the fight, but the reality was beyond their expectations.

Wasn't he just trash? How could he be the disciple of the former clan chief?

"That's right! He must have just made a false confession!"

"I've told you before, a person with no talent is just trash, even if he has a very powerful teacher!"

After seeing Flint's fight and hearing the boos from the audience, Elsa could only close her eyes and turn to leave the crowd.
