My Dragon System

Chapter 255 - Skillful Bliss
After hearing the boys screams, everyone in the crowd was feeling more nervous than ever. A part of them thought that perhaps the middle-class students weren't serious, after all, how could they get away with such a thing?

If they were to do something as drastic as attack a whole class of lower students, did they really think not one of them would say anything? But after witnessing what had happened, they now knew the situation they were in was very serious.

"Alright, who's next?" The second-year student said.

Again, not a single person had volunteered to go next.

"Alright, I'll just have to pick another one." This time the second-year student pointed at a fairly tall boy with short hair.

The boy grabbed one of the black balls, although unlike the person before the boy was less hesitant. He closed his eyes to concentrate on the ball, and it started to glow stronger than the person before him.

"Energy blast." The blast came out faster than the one before and straighter. It carried on going forward until it had eventually hit its target.

Van felt the force hit him right in the stomach and the blow felt like that of a strong punch.

The energy blast was similar of that to a punch with the use of Ki, the more mana used the stronger the blast would be.

As the blow hit him, Van started to cough as he gasped desperately for air. And a few specks of blood came trailing out of his mouth.

"Perfect, fifty points you may go back in line, let's see who's next?"

Just then though a Bliss had decided to volunteer herself.

"Oh, a volunteer and a beautiful lady at that." The man said.

As Bliss walked to the front, she grabbed one of the black balls. She took no time in gathering her mana. The ball started to shine brighter than ever and it looked like the ball itself was going to break as a few cracks had appeared.

"Oh, that's impressive for a lower-class student," Nano said watching from further back.

"Energy blast" Just then she shot out not one, but three energy blasts where released from her palm at the same time. The three started to swirl and spiral around each other before splitting apart and hitting the board in three different spots.

Two of the shots had hit just underneath Van's arms and the other between his legs all in the inner area.

The middle-class student looked to Nano in disbelief, it was an unexpected outcome, many of the middle-class students would even struggle to do something like this. Nano just simply nodded in reply.

"Sixty points, you may go back in line."

As Bliss walked back to the others she mumbled.

"This was all that I could do for you."

Bliss could see that the students were frightened after seeing the first person fail. Not wanting themselves to be put in a similar situation, they would now all target Van and not go for the targets around Van.

Bliss had volunteered herself to show that it was possible to hit each of the targets, hoping not only for the other students to gain confidence but to also show it was possible to complete this without hitting Van.

But as the next person went up, her hopes were quickly dashed. The students just weren't as skilful as Bliss and still felt they had no choice but to try to go for Van.

Just then though at the back of the hall, Max and Ray had entered. It took a while for them to reach the hall through Max' secret entrance but they had finally arrived. Max seeing the crowd of people knew he was in the right place.

"Looks like the lesson already started, come on Nes let's hurry."

As the two of them tried to join the crowd as if nothing happened, they quickly realised what was going on. They saw Van tied up spread out on the target board and a student casting out spells at him.

"What the hell are the students doing, are they crazy!" Max said, "They have never gone this far before."

Ray continued to watch the other students go up, He saw one of them take a beast crystal and then using its power fire an energy blast hitting Van in the leg this time. Ray clenched his fist as he saw what was happening.

"Come on Nes, we need to go get a professor or something, no way will they let this pass." But as Max turned his head, Ray was nowhere to be seen.

"Alright, who's next?" But as the middle-class student asked that question, Ray had suddenly stepped forward from the crowd of people.

"Wait isn't that the crazy new kid who tried attacking me?" Bliss thought. "Where was he this whole time?"

Nano seeing Ray step forward started to smile, finally the person who they had been waiting for had arrived. This was perfect, there was no way anyone would be sane enough to attack a group full of middle-class students.

Ray would have no choice but to hurt the very person he was trying to protect. Although Nano was doing this all on the orders of Blake, seeing these types of things brought Pleasure to Nano.

"Looks like we have a volunteer."

Ray walked up and grabbed one of the black balls from the crate. After watching a few of the other students he realised they were using it to give them extra mana.

Ray was expecting either the system to do something but nothing appeared. Ray then tried using his Ki into it but again nothing happened. It was as Ray thought, even as a kid when he touched the magic crystal nothing had happened.

Ray's magical powers were different compared to the way everyone else used them.

"What's happening?" the students thought.

"Does he not have any magical powers?"

"They did say that he was sick for the first year, maybe he's weak."

"Yeah just because you get a perfect score on the exam, doesn't mean you are actually skilful with magic."

Ray looked at the magic ball once again and then looked at Van who was beaten on the target. The anger started to surge through his body.

"I promised someone I would protect you." Said Ray.

At the same time, he gripped the ball tightly and started a swinging motion, he threw the ball out of his hands with as much force as possible gathering all his Ki. The ball then left his fingertips at lightning speed and *BANG.

The ball had perfectly hit the target in the inner circle but where the ball had hit, a hole the same size as a fist had appeared.

The student's jaws nearly hit the ground as their mouths were left wide opened

Out of all the magical attacks that had hit the target before not one of them had damaged the target.

It was made out of special materiel designed to withstand attacks like this but Ray had simply thrown the beast crystal ball hard enough and had managed to make a hole through it.

"Just what monstrous strength did this guy have?" Bliss thought.
