Glancing at him, "I don't remember telling you that I am from any of the top 5 Sectors in the federation." David stated dismissively.
"Why, is something wrong?" he faced Nihyuh with a piercing gaze.
Nihyuh had an uncertain expression but then, he relaxed as he smiled. "No, its nothing serious. Its just that this information is made available only to those families originating from the Top Five Sectors."
David glanced at him for a moment before retracting his gaze.
There wasn't any surprise or suspense in the next few matches. It was normal and only the different techniques being used made it interesting.
David was suddenly startled, that was because a notification had popped up in his head, a sound which only he could hear. He was next.
Ignoring the gazes from the crowds, David walked into the ring. His opponent was already there, waiting for him.
A beautiful girl with chubby cheeks, cute face with an innocent look that makes one want to squeeze them in happiness, it was just too cute, although her body wasn't in the perfect curve, it was still sensual.
Her bright black eyes with a her black curly hair that screamed 0
But David wasn't decieved by her appearance at all. He was certain, not to underestimate her.
It was inevitable that the Rankings this week wasn't accurate at all, the students are well aware of the this fact, which was why, there hadn't been much conflicts amongst the students.
A random student whose looks might seem funny, and personality is one that doesn't take things seriously might just be strong enough to compete for the first place in the Ranking.
The smart ones remain low-key but the smarter ones, made friends with almost everyone, as no one knows who is who.
There wasn't anyone to blame other than the institute. But finding fault with the institute over such matter is as ineffective as punching the air - it's a wasted effort.
The institute had suddenly published the Rankings much earlier than it was scheduled to, startling the students badly.
Many of the new students had hoped themselves up in their room to practice their manuals and techniques for the Rankings they had thought would be released to the public.
But who would have known it would come up much earlier.
As David thought about it, he was firm on his resolve that no one was to be underestimated right now unless their strength had been thoroughly revealed, it would be best to remain cautious and calm.
Adjusting his stance he immediately brought himself to his top state.
He circulated his blood, increasing its velocity, and it swished like a water tap along his veins to every part of his body.
Strength began to fill his body in a fast pace along with the increase in his heartbeat. In less than a few seconds, his blood revolved like lightening in his system.
The force he used to propel his blood was only 70 percent of his power. Every Spryher has the ability to regulate their blood velocity. It is like an innate ability gained the moment they had been turned.
David chose to revolve 70 percent of his cycle as he doesn't want to reveal his true strength yet, it would be a nice surprise to his opponent once he burst out with his full strength.
In the next second, he immediately heard a soft shout, "Start!"
Not wasting a single second, David punched out with force, without the slightest bit of technique!
The ripped as the fist tore through the wind, swinging towards the young lady who seem to be scared witless.
Daisy stood in her position like a statue as though she couldn't move due to the fear of the force coming with the fist.
But surprisingly, she raised her palm as she countered the fist with her palm.
Pa! Psst!
The astonishing sound that one had expected didn't come out, instead it was the sound of flesh being slap.
David's face didn't change, it was as though he had expected something like that would happen. Every new students by now already own ab attribute, trait or a calling card that they could call their own.So, this wasn't much of a surprise to him.
David only felt his punch hitting something very soft as his fist almost sank into her palm there was even a slight force attempting to pull him forwards, it wasn't the feedback he had been expecting.
It was as if he had punched a bunch of stacked cotton. It was extremely uncomfortable as he had to and forcibly pull his strength back so as to not get dragged by the suction force forwards.
Upon closer inspection, Daisy's.chubby body rippled as they seem to be redistributing and redirecting the force invading them, and at the same time, creating a suction force to pull onore of the invading force.
As he didn't use his full strength yet, it was quite easy from him to break free of the situation and also, he had been cautious.
With a slight flex of his hand, he easily broke free,
He retreated back a few steps as he gazed at his opponent.
Daisy was slightly surprised, although it looked like she had taken the fist easily, the strength that had entered her body almost broke apart her flesh, if it weren't for the fact that she had just entered the second state of her technique, a piece of her flesh would definitely burst, unable to contain such strength.
But she had no need to fear although there are geniuses like Phyllida who had high talents, they are only do few.
There are even some students who hadn't even reached the Prosaic State (The beginning State) yet. They are still stuck at practicing the techniques they had chosen. It might probably be due to the fact that the technique doesn't suit their personalities or some other reason entirely, like the talents.
However, there are still a few students who have reached the second state, but they aren't much anyways.
Calculating the facts, Daisy guessed that the probability that David had practiced his technique to the second level was slim.
Therefore, she only giggled cutely when she saw his actions, not really taking him serious. The only thing she was wary about was his strength, and she guessed that he had practiced his Training Manual more diligently than he had with his Combat Technique, which was quite smart to her.
But she shook her head 8n her mind as she thought 'It is a pity he had met me, my Technique specifically counters strength.' although she mourned for him, it disappeared in a flash.
"Come on little guy, i know you can do better than that!" she placed her hands on her waist and cheered him on with a huge smile on her face.
The surrounding audiences laughed slightly at the funny sight. At a position in lines of the students, Nihyuh could be seen frowning to himself while gazing at David intently and also muttering something under his breathe.
Phyllida smirked as she nodded her head in confirmation, she had already confirmed her suspicions of him, he was quite weak as she had predicted, she was also quite sure that he wouldn't even be able to withstand a single finger flick from her, not to mention the second state of the Butterfly's Flick, the Double Flick.
Seeing the audience laughing with him as the main subject, David was a bit flustered, he we wasn't one who liked being the center of attention. And although he wasn't antisocial, he wasn't very bold either. He couldn't even remember when last he had gone to a stage.
And now, with the crowds publicly laughing at his expense, David hot a bit flustered
But with the level of control he had over his body, such stage fright was easy to curb. He managed to control his emotions in just a few breaths.
Not saying anything, David instantly activated his technique.
Scorching Fury, First state - first degree burn.
Although he didn't say anything, he wasn't one to take an insult lying still. He is still a young and passionate young man, and also a hotblooded youth. Without the slightest bit of hesitation.
His muscles quivered as they oscillated at a particular frequency, the friction produced gave rise to heat and the velocity of his blood flowing in a particular part in his arms, expanded the temperature in his fists by a huge degree.
He instantly blasted the High-Tier Black Grade Technique towards her laughing face. He didn't believe her face wouldn't cave in due to the force behind fist
Heat spread In his through his veins and the temperature in the air increased noticeablely.
Whoosh!
Daisy smirked slightly, she had expected this since she taunted him purposely. She wished to end the fight early and more importantly, she wants to see his trump card.
Raising her palm again, she accepted the fist her palm once again.
Bam! Crack!
Fist and palm colliding, Daisy's feet sank a few inches down the field with the force as cracks seems to spread with her as the center, and then, she couldn't help but take a step back.
She hadn't expected David's attack to be this strong, enough for her to take another step backwards to direct the force towards a new ground.
That was her own technique, redirecting and redistributing forces.
When their attacks had collided, this time it sounded like a proper hit. Heat wave spread through the air and then dispersed rapidly as If they had been forcibly dispersed.
Her face had long since turned serious while she thought.. David didn't give her enough time to ponder, he instantly blasted another Scorching Fury towards Daisy fiercely.
