Chapter 21 - The Initiation
Many students also attacked with their most powerful attack they could muster, finger attacks, fist, kicks, all sort of attacks were immediately performed.
Their attacks immediately connected to the large transparent arc blade.
The expressions of the students immediately changed from their hardened expression to one of astonishment, confusion, bewilderment and mostly fear.
David's eyes opened wide as he glanced down at his lower body in astonishment and a slight bit of fear.
The reason for that was because the moment the attacks of the students and the instructor was about to connect, their attacks met with nothing, only simple air.
But the main reason for their fear was because the after effect of the instructor's attack, the transparent blade arc sliced through the bodies of the students including Davids'.
Phyllida's expression also had a bit of fear in them and although she knew the truth, seeing a blade pass through your body, who wouldn't feel a tinge of fear?

David paused for 5 seconds before he tried moving his leg in fear.
Taking a step forward, his legs moved! He softly touched his waist to check if it was still intact, seeing as it wasn't separated afrom his body? He visibly heaved a sigh of relief.
Hu!
David looked towards his left and his right scanning his classmates for anyone who had been either dismembered or any who had parts of their bodies being separated from them
But his expectations was bound to be a lost cause. Few of the students were still frozen in fear and shock just like an extremely life like manmade statue.
He also used the opportunity to glance towards Nihyuh, who had his arms crossed in front of him, his legs standing firmly in a horse stance seemingly unshakable. He was also frozen in a battle stance.
David raised his head back up towards the instructor only to find out that the instructor who was previously floating in midair had at some point in time, was already on the ground, with a lazy expression on her face and a hint of satisfaction shining deep within her eyes.
She had her arms folded in front of her, supporting her already voluptuous and succulent breast. Appearing even desirable, if not for the near death encounter they had just experienced a few seconds ago, the male students would be spewing out blood from their noses without stop but the young men's thoughts was already preoccupied with the thoughts of fear and death, their brain couldn't spare the extra brain juice to process the stimulating sight in front of them.
Instead of the looks of lust they were supposed to have due to almost popped out breasts in front of them, they instead had looks of wariness and fear as they stared at the instructor in front of them like one would do to a demon.
Instructor Aella sighed in satisfaction, watching the changes of expression on each students faces, it was quiet satisfying to her. It has been more than three years since she had been assigned to the combat lessons teaching department.
She had been teaching combat lessons in the institute for three years straight to new students of different batches.
Her schedule for the first week of the students was to teach them theories of combat, basically, the sh+ts they had gotten themselves into, and also, life and death together with some other miscellaneous subjects
After the first week of theories, debates and some simple and basic questions and answers between her and her students, she would place them into an impossibly difficult scenario.
Where in, their latent potential would be awakened or more like forced out of them due to fear.
It is like an initiation of a sort that every freshmen has to undertake. Who so ever passes, great! But those who failed, no drastic actions like expulsion or the likes would taken. The freshmen would only change dorms and identity, simple. From the students dorm to the labour house. And from a student of the institute, to a temporary labour staff of the institute.
People like that were given the grace of 2 week after they failed the initiation to become a Spryer. If they failed, their statuses as a temporary labour staff of the institute would become permanent that instant. But if they passed, they would be allowed to join the institute as a student.
Although, the rules were there, those rules were one of the means the institute devised to keep the students from been lazy, but as time passed and the students of the institute grew plenty year after year, and their basic necessities were growing day by day with the low amount of labour staff and resources wasted on paying the labour workers that were assigned to cook, wash, e.t.c.
That particular rule was then known to be the one that provided free labour workers to the institute without wasting any unnecessary resources.
Also, students who failed the initiation were considered ones with low talents in combat and having a weak heart or otherwise know as having a weak will.
At first, there was barely any students who failed the initiation. At most three to four would fail. And if the new students luck was good at that moment, out of all the freshmen who had been admitted into the institute, non of them may fail.
And even if some failed, they would be given the opportunity to turn their failures into success due to the 2 weeks trail in the labour house. Becoming a Spryer in at most a week or slightly more than a week.
But as the authorities in the institute realised that the numbers of students who become a permanent labour ataff were almost non existent, although, it was a good thing, it was also a bad situation as the staffs hired from outside the circle of the institute might include spies from foreign institutes. It was considered a great risk.
After some meetings and considerations, the two weeks grace was reduce to only a weeks time. And at that point, the students that failed initiation or rather test increased to almost a double of the amount that it used to be.
This year, it was a lot worse and different from the past ones, and that is due to special reasons known only to the authorities of the institute, she has been hinted but it was more like she had been asked or rather, tasked, to perform the initiation as early as she could. But the final decision still lays in her hands. Well, at least that was what she was told.
But as an extremely smart person, she only needed to be hinted once or twice before she would get the message very clear.
