Ancient Tears BloodLine

Hansen Campus,

Seeing someone slipped inside, the people who were arguing with security were stunned.

"Did you find out who that is?" The lean middle-aged man inquired of his colleague. They have been pressured by their superiors to collect some news. In particular, the news related hansen campus.

They were pissed off, witnessing someone went inside under their nose.

"No, I couldn't see his face." His colleague replied. Hearing that they didn't argue anymore. Everyone saw that person wore a mask to cover his face. He also used hoodie to cover his head.

Who is this strange fella? Everyone puzzled. Next they decided to stay vigilant to not let anyone before they learn about that person's identity.

...

(From MC's Perspective)

I entered inside the building. For a moment, I looked at my left and right side. I saw more number of students compared to last time. There is still some time left for staff to arrive. So it's not even total strength of the students.

"What's going on?" I mumbled under my breath. It's quite intriguing, earlier deserted places were occupied by students.

Then I stroll towards the practice room after clearing my mind. On the way, some students looked at me with strange gaze because of my mask and hoodie. Seeing that I removed the hoodie and continued to walk forward.

I arrived at the trainning room few minutes later. Next, I take out my ID to scan. After scanning my ID, the metallic door immediately opened.

"Creak"

Seeing that, I stepped inside and the door behind me shut automatically.

Next, smile blossomed on my face after seeing that training room was same as usual. Apart from me, there is no one present inside at this time.

Then I walked towards the puppet training room. I hope they it's also same as usual. I walked past the speed testing room and arrived infront of puppet training room.

"Creak"

I stepped inside after scanning my ID, the door then closed automatically and no will disturb me until I come out.

Seeing that I proceed to select the type of puppets. I started from selecting normal wooden puppets.

BUZZ

When I made the selection, a wooden puppet appeared above from the ground. The fight mode was turned on by me. In few seconds, the wooden puppet will start attack me

Realizing that, I take out the black sword from storage ring.

When the timer was on, the wooden puppet moved. The wooden puppets movements were limited to the stage. This function can be turned on and turned off.

I just didn't bother to turn it off. The wooden puppet current strength was at Initial level- Trainee Apprentice Warrior.

I want to see the power level difference between. I aimed the sword at the wooden puppet's head.

I charged the sword with small amount of lightning essence.

"SWORD DIVIDE," I said.

A burst of purple light released at the wooden puppet. Next second, the wooden puppet was blast into pieces.

The Special Trainee level lightning energy was unbearable for the Trainee level puppets. It was totally shredded into pieces.

Next, I decided to test the lightning power by rising the power level of the puppets from Initial to mid level then Peak level Trainee Apprentice Strength.

Time passed,

From every test, I have noticed. I only need to charge the black sword with little more lightning essence. And everytime it was the same result.

The wooden puppet was shredded into smaller pieces.

Next, I decided to select special trainee level wooden puppet. Obviously this time the consumption will be large, but I would like to try it. My lightning reserve is enough to carry out my little experiment.

When the initial level- special trainee puppet appeared. I charged the black sword with full lightning energy. I didn't leave any space to left out. When the sword was brimming with purple color energy.

"SWORD DIVIDE," I muttered.

This time the clapping sound of purple lightning was loud enough. It reverberated inside the room. Fortunately, this metallic room was completely fortified otherwise the sound would have been noticed by others.

When the purple lightning beam blasted the wooden puppet, I saw the top of the humanoid puppet completely disappeared.

My eyes gleamed with interest. It's a wooden puppet that's why it's top was completely disappeared. If it is replaced by living warrior without protective gear. I believe this energy is alone to cause fatal wounds.

Wooden puppet is not enough for my test. So U decided to change the puppet. Then I selected the metallic puppet with Initial- Special Trainee level from the monitoring system. This metallic puppet is harder than human flesh.

I wonder, how many attacks will it take to damage the metallic puppet.

BUZZ

The previous wooden puppet had completely disappeared. Now a brand new metallic puppet appeared above the platform. The moves made by puppets were recorded one.

As long as you are familiar with puppet movements, then it's easy to stay away from the puppet and shift your attention on being offensive.

This time after charging the sword with lightning energy, I blasted the metallic puppet with sword divide move.

"BOOM" a deafening sound resonates inside the room.

Without minding it, then I saw the aftermath.

A three and half inch dent can be seen on the puppet's chest region. I spotted small purple arcs lingering over the metallic puppet. When it comes to Warrior, this attack would have left them with broken chest bones.

No wonder, I easily dealt with those Special Trainee bandits back at Insect forest. My only trouble was those seasoned bandits. They gave me quite a headache.

Then I observed my lightning reserve in my dantian. Seeing that it was enough to release a few more attacks, I selected metallic puppet with next level, Mid-level Special Trainee. The result was a 3 inch dent.

Time passed, I repeated the same process with Peak level- Special Trainee puppet. This time it was resulted with 2 and half inch dent on metallic puppet. The dent size was again reduced by half.

This will be the case when there is no inner armor. Based on the grade of the artifact, I believe the impact will be greatly reduced.

My curiosity for Trainee Warrior level puppet was further increased. This is the level of teachers and elders here. I assume that only Elder Thornton has taken half step in Elite level.

And the rest of the elders and teachers's cultivation base was at Trainee Warrior level. I walked up to the monitoring system and selected the Trainee Warrior level puppet.

BUZZ

A small smile blossemed on my face hearing that sound. This time I saw the metallic puppet was different from previous one. Obviously, the puppet was further strengthened with metal elements.

It can be seen from, how dense was the metallic puppet's hand was?

Next, I repeated the previous attack after charging the sword.

"BOOM" the loud sound resonated inside the room.

This time I saw the metallic puppet didn't even vibrated. But I spotted one inch dent mark on it's head. The dent size was decreased by 1 and half. It was huge difference.

But I intrigued about the desinger of this metallic puppet. How did the designer make this calculation?

Is it the Trainee Warrior puppet was randomly strengthened or is there any calculation behind it? A hint of curiosity rose in my heart.

Considering Elder Thornton's background, I feel it's reliable. If this is the case, then Mid level- Peak Trainee puppet will have a half inch dent. This is just my assumption but in-order to verify.

Again, I selected the next level puppet and proceeded to repeat the process.

"Boom"

After the aftermath, I spotted a half inch dent. I smiled,"The result was same."

Then the next level was the last one. There is no more elite level puppet in this institute. Then I continued the same process with Peak Trainee puppet.

Seeing that, there is no dent on it, I let out a small sigh. Then I didn't continue with sparring, I just turned it off. I found the lightning reserve in dantian reduced to quarter.

Then I sat cross legged on the ground. I didn't take out lightning essence pearl to cultivate. Rather I fell into contemplation.

There is no problem with lightning power. It's destruction power will increase whenever there is a cultivation breakthrough.

The problem lies in skills. I took a few more seconds in charging the sword. There was slight improvement compared to a month ago.

Currently, I have intermediate level proficiency both in sword divide and Lightning wheel techniques. But this is not enough. If I met opponent with better skills, then it will expose my flaw right away.

Considering the crimson hall competition few months away. I need to increase my skill level further. At-least I need to reach proficient level.

These are modern day level method. Considering ancient skill division, my skill comes under a small wheel. In that proficient level is just sub level of small wheel.

I can't imagine the effect of further levels. I can operate the lightning techniques in the blink of an eye. That would be deadly.

For current me, I should reach proficient level before the competition. After gaining some clarity, I decided to go with speed test.
