Chapter 39: Combined Skill Battle

Yale bid farewell to Ange and Aizu as he started running towards the Fist Battle Class.

In the end, he lost a lot of time speaking with Aizu and Ange.

Fortunately, Yale’s speed increased after reaching the 2-star mortal realm, so he managed to arrive on time.

In that lesson, he had to do the sparring against George. No one else in the class dared to battle against them, so they could only spar together.

That was also something that both liked, as it was better to battle against someone with similar powers.

However, after the first clash of punches, George was at a clear disadvantage.

“You! You already advanced!”

The whole class heard George shocked shout, all of their classmates looked with astonished faces at Yale.

“I was only lucky to master a Combined Skill yesterday at night.”

Yale didn’t dare to say that he created a never seen before skill even if he didn’t say that was an Origin Skill, mastering that fast a Combined Skill was already difficult to believe for most students.

“So you were trying the same as me, as I expected from my rival. Do you dare to battle with me using just fist related Combined Skills?”

George wanted to fill the disparity of strength with his Combined Skill in which he had a lot of confidence, even if he still lacked a step to master it.

“Alright, I also wanted to try the might of your Combined Skills.”

The only Combined Skill that Yale could use with that rules was Frost Claw, but to battle without weapons was already enough.

Yale could also use the Water Battle Armor as long as he didn’t use it to create any weapon, but that skill consumed too much Origin Qi and wasn’t optimal for long battles.

George’s punches increased in size as a thick layer of earth covered them.

Yale thought that the Combined Skill George’s was using in his fists was probably the same as he used in the sword the previous day.

Yale developed his own Sparkling Sword inspiring in that skill. After seeing how George used it, he obtained new insight into it.

“The user upgraded the Combined Skill [Sparkling Sword] to Level 3.”

However, Yale didn’t want to use Sparkling Sword in his fists even if it could work.

Using sparks against earth wasn’t a wise decision, so Yale instead decided to use his initial idea and created a Frost Claw in a solid state.

Both fists covered by their respective Combined Spells clashed, but that time both were almost at the same level of power.

George had his Combined Skill almost mastered while Yale had it only at level three.

That difference in skill mastery made up for their difference in physical strength.

“The user upgraded the Combined Skill [Frost Claw] to Level 4.”

“The user upgraded the Combined Skill [Frost Claw] to Level 5.”

While sparring, Yale’s Frost Claw leveled up two times, that kind of battle was excellent to increase its proficiency.

Sadly, the class ended with both tied; both were unable to beat the other.

In the Rod Battle Class, both continued battling together.

However, Frost Claw wasn’t a suitable type of spell to combine with weapons.

On the other hand, George Combined Skill could also affect the rod; it was an excellent Combined Skill focused on physical battle.

Yale didn’t have any rod-like Combined Skill, so he decided to use the Ice Spear Combined Skill modifying its form to seem like a rod instead of a spear.

Furthermore, he used it to cover the training rod instead to form a new one.

Using the Ice Spear that way gave the rod more resistance than creating it only with ice.

Both rod abilities were also at the same level, which benefitted both of them a lot.

“The user upgraded the Combined Skill [Ice Spear] to Level 2.”

“Rod Innate Talent: Lowest grade upgraded to Rod Innate Talent: Low grade.”

“The user upgraded the Combined Skill [Ice Spear] to Level 3.”

“The user’s power increased and restored; Origin Points increased to 12/12.”

Those four notifications appeared while Yale was battling with George, the constant use of skills in battle made him improve a lot.

However, Yale wasn’t the only one who benefited from their battle.

George managed to master his Combined Skill while battling, making a breakthrough to the 2-star in front of everyone.

Everyone congratulated George for his breakthrough.

Furthermore, as he mastered a Combined Skill, he advanced in both paths simultaneously.

Initially, George shouldn’t have mastered the Combined Skill at that speed, but less than two hours of battle with Yale were more effective than two weeks of training alone. Yale’s speed was also a lot higher when battling with George than being alone.

As long as they continue battling together, both would be able to improve at a higher speed than if they trained alone.

Fortunately for Yale, George hadn’t fused with any beast bloodline, so he didn’t have a huge increase in power just after advancing.

Although George restored all his stamina after the breakthrough, Yale restored it with Auto-regeneration, so he didn’t fall into a disadvantage.

Furthermore, when Yale increased his Origin Points, they also restored to the max, that was something that didn’t happen with Inner Qi or Magic Power.

Thus, Yale managed to continue battling in equal conditions to George after George advanced.

The whole class had already erased from their minds any thought they could have of surpassing those two monsters. Yale and George were in another league and putting them together only made them even stronger.

The Rod Battle Class ended, but they battled using the same style in the Spear Battle Class, only that they were fighting with spears instead of rods.

That time, both Combined Skill they used in the Rod Battle Class were also compatible with the Spear Battle Class, so they continued with the same Combined Skills.

“The user upgraded the Combined Skill [Ice Spear] to Level 4.”

“Spear Innate Talent: Lowest grade upgraded to Spear Innate Talent: Low grade.”

That time Yale only had two notifications while fighting, but before going to the lessons he only had Ice Spear at level one, leveling it to four in two hours was very good.

Furthermore, in that lesson, both of them stopped using skills twenty minutes before the end of the class.

That was because they wanted to store their energies for the Sword Battle Class which was the specialty of both of them.

The fame of both in the academy skyrocketed after they battled for three continuous lessons using Combined Skills.

Combined Skills were hard to learn and even harder to master, but those two had battled with them for hours and were obviously very skilled in them.

Furthermore, both of them already advanced to the 2-star mortal realm by mastering a Combined Skill, that alone was enough to obtain the respect of their classmates.

In fact, even other students managed to get new insights only by seeing their battle.

Teachers didn’t teach anything to the beginner classes for Warriors; they were only there to control the students and report talents to the academy.

They would only teach them seriously when they reached the intermediate classes, in other words, the 4-star mortal realm.

Something similar happened to the Magus lessons, but those teachers at least teach the theory even if they didn’t teach any spell in the class.

Due to that, the students need to rely on themselves to improve. Having such powerful classmates could depress some of them, but the opportunity of seeing that kind of battles was a benefit for all of them.

Thus, George and Yale had become admiration icons for all the boys in the Warrior Classes they already attended.

Finally, the Sword Battle Class started.

George turned his sword into a big greatsword like he did the previous day in the Earth Elemental Class, but as he already mastered the skill, the greatsword wouldn’t disappear in seconds.

Yale suspected that was the same as his Sparkling Sword, the real use of that Combined Skill was to use it with the sword.

Using a Combined Skill with other targets than their original one would diminish the power.

However, sometimes it could also make it easier to control the skill due to the lack of power.

On the other hand, Yale didn’t use any Combined Skill to transform his sword.

He wanted to use the pressure from the battle to increase his Sword Mastery, being at a disadvantage without losing was the quickest way to improve.

George’s power increased a lot, thanks to the size of his sword. However, he lost agility in exchange; that greatsword had the same problem as Aizu’s previous Fire Ball.

Yale’s sword wouldn’t be able to resist a direct clash even with Yale’s increased strength, but Yale needn’t clash directly with him.

Yale used a different style, quickly hitting while avoiding George’s sword.

That kind of style required a lot of ability, but that was just what Yale wanted to improve.

Yale was at a disadvantage in almost the whole class, but even if he was retreating all the lesson, George wasn’t able to hit him.

However, even if Yale’s strikes were weak, they managed to hit George.

Yale seemed at a disadvantage from the outside, but the whole battle he was the only one who managed to hit the opponent even if the damage was low and George wasn’t injured.

That battle style was one Yale devised after helping Aizu to modify her Fire Ball spell and proved to be effective against an opponent who lacked speed.

When the class had less than ten minutes to end, Yale’s efforts were rewarded.

“The user upgraded the Passive Skill [Sword Mastery] to Apprentice Level 10.”
