4 E-rank

After the teacher intervened the fight was stopped. So Adam was able to go to the fighting training without any problems.

Because of the continuous wild animals' attacks, Schools become more focused on teaching students how to fight using their abilities. Because Strength is the most important thing to society in these circumstances. Only with strong warriors can the city survive. Now, the warriors' statuses are higher than ever. The warriors' grades are divided into E-rank, D-rank, C-rank, B-rank, A-rank, and S-rank. Even the lowest grade, the E rankers, are considered nobles. In this dangerous world, only strength determines one's status.

Adam wasn't comfortable at all. Everybody was starring at him with eyes full of hatred including the teacher who was unwilling to waste his time on a cripple. He said to Adam: "Hey boy, I will advise you to not waste your time here. Because hard work won't change anything. You will only feel depressed if you don't give up now."

Adam who was so furious wanted to reply but he couldn't say anything to defend himself otherwise he will blow his cover.

"Excuse me, sir. But this is not true. With hard work everything is possible. He only needs to know where to invest his time. For someone like him, I would suggest he trains with weapons." a beautiful girl with long purple hair said to the teacher.

Everybody was shocked by what they have just heard." Why on earth would sister Yasmine stand for that useless cripple?" A purple-haired youth whispered to his friends while starring at Adam with disdain. "Lucky buster, he must be very happy now that she helped him."

Adam could feel all the pressure coming from his classmates. But he was unshaken as he also could feel that he wasn't alone.

The teacher clenched his fist tightly from anger but he knew he couldn't do anything to her because she is the successor of the White Lotus family, one of the five strongest families in the city. Plus she is also one of the younger generation's geniuses as she has an outstanding talent.

So he let it slide and started the lesson. He showed some defense moves then they moved to practical fights. The teacher divided them into pairs and made them fight each other. He purposely matched Adam with Youssef, the purple-haired youth who was glaring at Adam before.

When the fight started Youssef attack aggressively without holding back, he wanted to hurt him so badly and humiliate him in front of everyone. So he tried to knock him out but Adam dodged easily as he could see his opponent's attack route. His senses had been sharpened after he absorbed the two shadows. He kept dodging every attack Youssef launched. The later was very angry, he looked like a joke who couldn't win against a cripple. " stop dodging like a scared chicken and fight me like a man." Youssef shouted.

Adam knew he has drawn a lot of undesirable attention to himself. He was afraid people will doubt he has some secret power. So he decided to let his opponent win the fight. When Youssef attacked again he didn't dodge him so he was hit in the face. He was sure he saw his opponent attack with all his power yet the attack was extremely weak.

Youssef kept attacking but his attacks did not harm Adam who was as shocked as his classmates.

"This is unbelievable! Not only he is fast, but his defense is also impenetrable. He must have reached the E rank. But how? Isn't he just a cripple?" the teacher thought.

When the E rank is reached one's body will undergo a Qualitative change. Hence, all his state will increase significantly. Moreover, E rankers acquire an ability that surpasses the human body's limits.

It is said that one E ranker can handle more than ten ordinary people alone.

The teacher stopped the fight as he could see that Youssef has no chance beating Adam. They were on completely different levels.

After the fighting training class ended. Adam was on his way back home when he was stopped by Ilyass and two of his followers. They have been waiting for him to leave school so they can finish their unsettled business.

"Here you are, little rat. I will beat the crap of you. So that you will be scared to come to school again." Ilyass said.

"What's your problem man? Why are you always looking for trouble?" Adam demanded.

"I allowed you to apologize but you acted so tough in front of everyone just to humiliate me. I will make sure you regret your decision."

"I didn't want to fight you at school but nothing is holding me back here from beating you."

"HaHaHa! What the f*ck man did this guy ate the wrong medicine." one of Ilyass's friends exclaimed.

" You stupid ignorant, Brother Ilyass has already reached the E rank and awakened his special ability. A cripple like you is not wordy of fighting one of us." the other one said while walking lazily toward Adam.

He suddenly threw a fist to Adam's stomach, followed by a kick to the head. But his leg was stopped mid-air as Adam grabbed it. He then kicked his other leg so his opponent was slammed to the bare ground.

"One is down. Two are left." Adam said indifferently.

Adam blocked the attack of the other servant with his left arm then attacked him with the right one.

"BBLLAAARRGGHH!!"The servant who was heated in the stomach started vomiting.

"Now there is only me and you, "Adam said while looking Ilyass in the eyes.

Clap Clap Clap.

"I didn't expect you to beat these two. you are so strong for a cripple. but don't ever think you can beat me with your pity tricks." Ilyass warned him.
