Chapter 195: Mana control.
In one of the practice rooms in the Castile, the Fusion magic class was in session.
"Before we move into the topic of the day, I would like to inform you all of an important info." Professor Gibson said. "At the end of next week, you all will be tested based on your level of teamwork."
"That is why within these 2 weeks all your classes will focus more on team effort. So, as to prepare you for both the test and the fast-approaching exercise with your seniors."
"Now for today's lesson. Last week, Blake asked for a demonstration and that I will give." Professor Gibson signaled for the students to step back before activating a containment field protecting the students.
"Double casting is the ability to simultaneously cast different spells as separate entities, while fusion magic is casting spells of different elements as one entity." As Gibson explained, the wind around him began getting chaotic.
"Fusion magic: Typhoon."
Out of nowhere, a giant cyclone made of water and wind was formed at the center of the practice room and out from the cyclone came out gigantic wind and water blades.
'My god!' Blake was stunned by the destructive power of the cyclone. He was pretty sure that if the barriers weren't up the wind and water blades would tear them, talk more of it suction force.
'Yup, I got him.' Seeing the students' expressions indicated that his abilities had achieved the desired effect.
He planned on showing the students what the outcome of their hard work will be, so as to motivate them.
"Fusion spells require great creativity and understanding of both elements in order produce such destructive powers, but one thing for sure is that they require a large amount of mana." Professor Gibson explained as he stopped the spell.
"Now back to the topic of the day." He took down the barriers and moved closer to the students.
"For us to be able to see mana in its basic components, we have to be able to control it to a certain level and make it part of us." Professor Gibson explained. "That is why we will continue with mana control exercises."
He soon started seeing the disappointment written on the faces of the students. After seeing such cool powers they were expecting to learn something new.
"I know you are quite disappointed, but you all are not at the desired level of mana control. For example, Blake think fast."
Out of nowhere, multiple wind blades were sent at him, giving Blake no time to dodge or cast a spell.
'Shit!' Blake cursed, but that was when ebony and ivory appeared in both of his hands.
Ding!
Ding!
Without much effort, Blake used the swords to cut through the wind blades.
"200 points for your awesome reflexes, but this is exactly what I was saying by making it a part of you." Professor Gibson said. "The wind blades weren't that strong and if you used a mana barrier you would have easily defended against it."
"I have seen your battles in the rank battles and every one of you used nothing but your elements and weapons." His words made them think about it for a moment.
'This is absolutely true. That means we have to review my fighting style.' Blake thought.
Whenever he fought in front of people, Blake was forced to dodge due to fire and lightning elements not being solid and him not wanting to reveal the space element.
But if he was to integrate arcane spells into his fighting style, not only will blocking become easier, but he could also mask the space element with it.
"I have decided I will forcefully inculcate that habit into each and every one of you.' Professor Gibson said as targets appeared all around the practice room.
"Today's exercise will be divided into 2 parts. Target practice for warming up and 1 vs 1. The 2 parts are equal to 1200 points. The target practice is 500 points while the 1 vs 1 battle is 700 points." The professor said.
For the target practice, they were to stand 30 meters away from the target and each student had 5 chances which equated to 100 points per shot.
As for the 1v1 battle, it was a random selection and anyone could be paired against anyone.
"Begin!" Professor Gibson announced.
It was almost twice the standard distance and since they weren't allowed to use their willpower to change the trajectory it was quite a difficult task for them, but not for everyone.
'Let's go.' Blake said to the system as it activated its ranged mode.
Unlike others that conjured a single mana arrow at a time, Blake conjured 5 mana arrows at once, and using the system's accuracy, he fired them all at once.
Ding! Ding! Ding!
All the arrows crashed into the bull's eye, stunning all the students in the practice room.
The target exercise was quite difficult due to the increased distance, but what shocked them was Blake's level of mana control that let him maintain and perfectly control 5 mana arrows.
"200 extra for a perfect score." Professor Gibson said in an impressed tone.
Soon after Brian and Castiel with the help of their systems got 500 points but they weren't as flashy as Blake's.
'I think that should have sent a message to them.' Blake smirked on the inside as he waited for the second stage of the exercise.
Normally, the system would warn him about showing all of his cards, but it knew this was not even half of what Blake's full potential.
After cracking so many arrays and getting his psyche repeatedly stretched and healed. The system knew all that was left for Blake gain mana vision was only lack of understanding of mana.
"Alright, next up is 1 vs 1 battle." Professor Gibson announced. "You are prohibited from using anything apart from mana and that includes your bare hands.
"If you are to punch or kick, make sure to do that by coating that part. If you lose you get half the points, while the winner gets the full points." Gibson explained.
