The students watching could only gasp in amazement as they watched the blue haired figure walk out of the videos range.
It was at this moment that David walked into the hall.
Shua!
Numerous eyes swiftly fell on him. He was instantly confused and a bit pressured.
Frowning slightly, he ignored the gazes while he walked towards a particularly empty seat.
Settling down, he saw that most people were projecting visible holographic images and to the air.
Not willing to lose out, he stood to ask a students.
"The hell is going on?"
Looking away from his holographic projection, Grover cast a sidelong glance at David. "Stop bothering me, go as–" his speech stop as he visibly froze.
His lips quivered a bit as he turned around again as if to confirm something "I-yo-we" he sttutered for a few seconds. It seemed as If he had recognized David from somewhere.
David didn't say anything, he just watched on with a deedpan expression.
Finally getting himself together Grover replied "There were quite a few impressive battles amongst the elites of our set, roughly an hour ago." excitement visible in his eyes, he sputtered on.
"And the cause of this was non other than the rankings list that was unexpectedly released a few hours ago by the institute." his eyes shine as spittle flew all over.
"I heard that the rankings list was supposedly supposed to be released after a week but the institute unexpectedly released it before the official release date, it was like chaos on earth. Those terrifying monsters that were previously wolves in sheeps clothing wishing to gain an extra advantage immediately pull off their cloacks and battled those at the top 10."
David blinked his eyes. It seemed like he wasn't the only one who had been attacked by others.
Not noticing David's pondering expression, Grover tone turned soft as he whispered. "Word got out that the First position obtained 10,000 Gyno Points!"
David's eyes widened a bit as he asked, "Really?" Although he had made some speculations about it as he had calculated the numbers of Gyno points the others in the rankings list would be allocated, based on the amount given to him. He didn't want to arouse any suspicion bringing trouble to himself.
If he had acted like he knew, one might suspect he was among the lucky bastards enlisted on the Rankings List which would turn out to be a extremely troublesome matter to deal with.
Although some might have known of his identity. It was very expensive though. Not many of the students are that rich. Even if they are, they would likely keep it to themselves. It was 300 Gyno Points, not 30!
Grover tapped his arm, projecting an image to the air, David saw only saw a few rays of dim light. In just a few seconds, the image distorted. Soon afterwards he could see a video of two figures standing a few meters apart.
He instantly recognissd the huge one to be Sturm. The bulky figure that almost attacked him earlier. But couldn't recognize the other figure.
Unexpected, Sturm was knocked back in the video in a contest of strength and the beaten to unconsciousness at the 10 punch.
David's face tightened, he had seen through the basics of Strum's strength, Dav knew he was no match for him. Fighting him was basically courting death even if he had used the same tactics as he did with the red hair, it was highly likely he would lose.
But now, there was someone who could beat him into a pulp in ten blows! Just how do this people practice?
Grover moved closer "I heard that the blue haired guy is called Lu Feng. I also heard that with his combat prowess, he was only capable of retaininh the third position." he whispered.
David's heart clenched uncontrollably, although he had not thought himself very strong, he had also never thought of himself this week. Thinking back to when he assumed he could sweep through his peers, it was a truly laughable thought.
Third place? With that strength? What about first and second? What kind of monsters are those?
As if hearing his thoughts, Grover continued "They say the first and second place in the Rankings Lists are very strong, but no one actually knows who they are."
Calming his nerves David pondered, although there exists a possibility it was true fact, it could all just be rumors.
Knocking himself up just for something like this, it wasn't his style.
"Thanks." He turned back to his seat after saying that leaving the slightly chubby Grover, wide mouth.

In a few moments, a very large middle aged ugly man entered the hall. The class immediately descend to silence. The previous chattering sound died down.
"Good morning students, I am your instructor for this class, I do hope we get along quite well." With a flirtatious smile, he winked at the female students.
The students instantly felt a chill running down their spine. The guys glared at the instructor almost simultaneously. David lips couldn't help but twitch. What was this situation.
"I will make sure to attend to you guys quite thoroughly, but for now let's get down to business. I will take you things concerning Theories." as if he didn't notice thier glares, he continued.
"Exercise Methods and Combat techniques are two separate things entirely." This captured David's attention as he thought she was speaking specifically to him.
"Exercise Methods or manuals exponentially increases ones rate of Heart Beat, thereby increasing and improving one's overall body capabilities such as strength, flexibility, speed, etc permanently! " The instructors voice has gradually grown solemn.
"When practiced to the highest level, special effects maybe obtained. Listen carefully, I said Maybe!" his voice stern.
"Now, let's visit the matter concerning Combat Techniques. Combat techniques are fighting methods that increases one's strength, reaction time, speed or other aspects explosively for a short period of time. Reducing one's stamina in exchange. Just incase you don't mix them up in the future.
For example, The Impulse Fist... Go to your Combat instructor for further information, I am only here to sort out the theoretical problems in cultivation. " The instructor pointed out.
David felt his mind buzz as if trying to tell him something, but unfortunately he didn't quite grasp it.
Smiling softly, he continued "Now that we've gotten that out of the way, let's talk about the levels involved. Both Exercising Methods and Combat Techniques are divided into different grades and which is then divided into three different levels.
Black Grade, Brown Grade and lastly Red Grade.
That's as far as the best of you could get anyways.
They are all divided into three levels in which the power level, Gyno Points and difficulty increases respectively. Low level, Mid level and high level.
For example, The Impulse Fist is a low level Black Grade technique. Easy to learn, costs 499 Gyno points and increases one's strength by a bit.
The Rebounding Body is a mid level Black Grade technique. A bit hard to learn, cost 899 Gyno Points because it's a body technique, increases the bodily defense by more.
The Drill Punch is a High level Black Grade technique. 999 Gyno points " He watched the students awed expression, causing him to smile.
"To my main reason for coming here, like I said previously, it's to deal with problems regarding theories on the practice methods and combat techniques.
To start with, every instructor or professor in the institute says that there are practically no easy shortcuts to help improve one's strength because most ways are very dangerous which includes constant dangerous battles with REBs or things like that.
But I will tell you, there are shortcut to every thing in life. it just depends if you are willing to put in the effort take it or not."
The fat instructor smiled, handsomely? As if he just said something casual.
