Chapter 300 300: Ryozan
Just like that, another two months have passed. With the elite trial being rescheduled, the students spend most of their time studying. Of course, the Forest of Orc event proceeded as scheduled. How did the Forest of Orcs go?
Well, Caleb didn't find anything special or particularly challenging. Just as its name. There are a bunch of orcs in that area. It was a mountain with a lively forest. The only interesting thing was there were a variety of orcs on the mountain.
Orcs are relatively weak in the classification of demon beasts in this world. Most of them are only sprout-level. Some of the talented orcs, though, could reach the advanced stage of the Sprout-Realm. But that was it...
It was also for this reason that schools let their students practice their combat skills and gain experience in the Forest of Orcs semi-annually. They treated it as a training ground. After all, the orc is just the most suitable. They aren't too dangerous and they are also not too weak. Just enough for the students to practice and feel enough danger whilst still not risking their lives.
Another interesting event in those two months was... It was worth mentioning that Fatty and Shawn managed to unlock their first gene lock. They are the fourth and fifth to become an Awakening Realm in their class after Caleb! Enjoy new chapters from empire
The last change was the treat of the other students, and teachers to Caleb had changed. Caleb's classmates no longer look down on him and even treat him with the right amount of respect. Some were envious. The teachers, on the other hand, were satisfied with Caleb. Zhou doesn't bother Caleb much... All these changes in treatment were due to his performance in the Beast Tide.
After all, Caleb showed the strength of Awakening Realm. His performance even exceeded Zhou's. Most of the students, not just in the classroom, in the no.3 high school know him by now due to his spectacular performance. The only thing he finds annoying is the fact that they gave him the Name 'Rubber Man.' Maybe due to the Gum Gum Rubber ability that he displayed. Honestly, he wasn't fond of it. Rubber Man? Yes, he could produce substances with rubber and gum, and even influence the environment through his Domain... But he couldn't stretch his limbs or body parts like a rubber!
...
On the No.3 High school. The students hustled and bustled in the halls of the school. In Room 307 on the third floor. Caleb, Fatty, and Mei were talking with each other. Well. mostly Fatty and Mei talking about their daily things and whatnot to Caleb.
"We will receive our rewards today, right? Teacher Erina said last week that Commander Zenith would personally come to our classroom." Xin suddenly appeared beside Fatty with a jovial smile.
"You haven't heard that wrong. Let's just wait for the teacher Erina and her announcement. I'm the most excited here. Ms. Erina told us that we'll be able to choose our rewards." Fatty clenched his fist excitedly.
Mei smiled at the two. "The rewards are proportional to the level of performance, though..."n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Caleb watched the three converse with a smile. In this class, he had become at least in a harmonious relationship with everyone except Zhou. They didn't look down on him anymore, which made his school days relaxing and peaceful. Not that he cares about them, though. But at least, he doesn't find them a nuance anymore.
However, if there are classmates with whom he has a good relationship and has a good impression. It would be Shawn, Xin, Kevin, Mei, and Fatty. These five aren't pretentious and they are very straight-forward. They don't bootlick nor do they flatter Zhou, which shows that they have their own pride. This quality made Caleb acknowledge them.
Particularly, during the two months that passed. He got to know more about the trio; Xin, Kevin, and Shawn. They are a trio because they can be seen always together and the three have common interests and hobbies.
Xin comes from a middle-class family which earns between ₱18,000 to ₱109,200 per month. Although it doesn't look like it. Xin works hard and is academically smart. He has the highest scores when it comes to written quizzes or tests. Shawn, on the other hand, has good leadership qualities. He always leads the three. Thanks to his excellent interpersonal skills. He became the vice president of the class. He's also good at planning and distributing tasks.
In the class, although Mei was the president. Shawn was more like the one who filled this role. Mei only does her job when it comes to announcements, but it is Shawn who coordinates his entire classmates when there are important events. `
Last, Kevin. Among the three, he was the sports guy. Very much athletic and talented in basketball, tennis, badminton, football, etc... He's also very good at fighting and mastered Karate, Jiu-jitsu, Chinese Kung Fu, Judo, Mua Thai, Taek Wondo and wields weapons like a pro.
Well, it had something to do with his background. He comes from a family of martial artists called Ryozan. In his family, there are six grandmasters in their own field. Grandmaster of Kung fu 'Pao Zen... Grandmaster of Judo 'Fushi', Grandmaster of Karate 'Shen', Grandmaster of Jiu Jitsu 'Hao, Grandmaster of Mua Thai 'Bok' and so on...
What does it take to be a Grandmaster of a martial in this world? To become one. They need to have beaten at least six of the strongest in that field in the entire world, thus becoming undisputed. Established hundreds of schools in their own name spread throughout the world. And lastly, they reached the advanced stage of Extraordinary Realm!! In fact, one of the Grandmasters in the Ryozan Family, the strongest among them was one of the three Transcendents in the Philippines like the Principal of the No. High school.
Yes, Kevin has such a terrifying background. This is also the reason why he excels in various schools of thought in martial arts. Unfortunately, he hasn't stepped into the Awakening Realm, which limits him. But it was said that he was only one step away.
