Bron Andal

Suddenly, an unexpected comrade burst into Haldar's room:

- Haldar, let's go faster! We have a practical lesson

- I know

This unexpected person turned out to be Erald, who was hurrying with a piece of meat in his mouth. Haldar quickly checked if he was dressed properly, and then, having made sure that everything was in order, ran after Erald, not forgetting to close his room.

A few minutes later, they arrived at the square and saw that everyone had already gathered. Only two of them were missing for the full first-year team.

- Let's hurry up

Furkas from the third grade shouted at them irritably, and Torkrim waved his hand with a smile:

- Yo, Haldar, Erald here

- The main characters always show up late, huh?

- Sorry, we're late

Giadar snorted, standing next to Articia. Haldar and Erald laughed lightly and went to theirs.

- Hmph

Fiana snorted arrogantly, and the others just remained silent. Kairat came up and patted Haldar on the shoulder:

- It's okay, no problem

- Well, since everyone is gathered, we can begin

A rough and strong voice immediately sounded not far from them.

Everyone immediately turned their gaze to where the voice came from. The speaker was a man from the bull race who appeared not far from them.

- I am Bron Andal, I will be your class teacher until you graduate. I hope everyone can complete their training and enter the harsh world. I will also be your practical training supervisor

- We don't have time to introduce ourselves, so we will get to know each other as the classes go on. Let's start with the introduction

- Those who are not very brave should not linger here for your own good. Carelessness is very severely punished in my country. And now follow me

Bron walked quickly to the training fields. Everyone quickly followed him. Some ignored Bron's words, some took them seriously, others didn't listen at all.

There were six training fields in the academy, all of them equally huge. Their field was not far from the exit from the academy. Bron turned to them and looked piercingly:

- Your practical classes will be devoted to physical training, increasing spirit, will, determination, as well as life experience in different situations, but mainly it will be physical training

- No will, spirit or determination will help with a sick or weak body, and it doesn't matter who you are, fighters or support. For everyone, you need to have a strong body, because it will significantly increase your chances of survival in all situations

- Let's start small. For a warm-up, run twenty laps around this field. You can only use 20% of your Ascension power, but if someone uses more than 20%, they will run ten times more laps with their power completely sealed, that is, like a mortal

All the fighters who always fought in the very front lines just snorted at this test, which cannot be said about the support. Those who usually stood behind and supported the fighters swallowed nervously.

When they saw the size of this field, they shuddered. After all, they never trained their bodies, why would they, when they are support, not warriors.

- Professor, do you want us dead?

Sarvet, although he was half a warrior, but his physical training was poor, because his basis was support. The others were also shocked from the very first lesson. Bron shook his head and explained:

- I only teach you what you need, understand? Support does not have enough power to attack. So tell me, how are you going to protect yourself on the battlefield?

- Well, I'll hide behind my comrades and use the surrounding area as my cover and advantage

Sarvet immediately responded quickly, as he knew that the support was no match for the fighters and had to dodge and hide. Bron smiled and nodded:

- That's right, but this is all about running away, that is, escaping. If you're alone, then you only have one way out - to run!

- Escape?

All the students were confused, how was this connected. Bron, seeing their faces, only grinned and continued:

- At the critical moment of escape, even one step can be decisive between your life and death. If you have weak bodies and endurance, you won't run far and won't even be able to keep up with the fighters and will burden them with yourself

- So... why aren't you running yet?

Bron bowed his head and his eyes began to sparkle dangerously. Everyone immediately shuddered and shouted:

- Yes, professor!

Everyone immediately ran out onto the field and started running. At first, everyone was fine, but with each new lap, the Support students began to have problems with endurance and body pain.

It was much easier for the fighters, because for them it was a walk. For them, hardening their bodies was one of the main tasks, because how will you fight if you get tired after ten minutes of running.

The field was by no means small. One lap was equal to one kilometer, which is why soon everyone began to use their energy to reduce the pain and endurance costs of running, but with 20% it was still a little difficult for them.

After 30 minutes, all the fighters ran, which cannot be said about the Supports... Bron gave the next training to those who ran and began to wait for the rest.

Bron had already read everyone's dossiers and knew them:

Teizi, Sarvet and Afa from the first grade, Anabel and Saladar from the second and from the third Aber and Sylvie.

At this time, Sarvet, Tayzi and Afa were running not far from each other.

Tayzi looked around and then at Professor Bron and noticing that he was not looking, she ran towards the exit of the academy. She quickly cast a spell and rushed towards the exit.

- Speed!

- Tayzi... You ran in the wrong direction

Sarvet was shocked by her actions. He did not understand why she ran towards the exit. Afa was also a little perplexed, but remembering Bron's task, they could not run after her since it was none of their business. Afa shook her head and ran breathlessly:

- Ha.. Let's run Sarvet

- Okay..

At that moment, Professor Bron threw a glance at them, which no one noticed and shook his head.

After 1 hour...

The fighters continued to sit, stand, push up, squat and do various exercises under the pressure of Bron's aura, which was pressing on them like a mountain. At this time, all the support students finally ran.

Bron looked at Aber and Sylvie from the third class, who were sweating and could barely stand on their feet.

- Are you guys from the third class finished?

- Yes, we finished

They answered tiredly, barely breathing. Bron nodded and turned his gaze to Anabel and Saladar from the second class.

- Hmm, okay. Are you guys from the second class finished?

- Yes

They also answered and sat down to recover their energy. Bron nodded again and turned his gaze to the last three.

- Great, and finally, are you all finished, guys from the first class?

- Professor, we finished

Sarvet and Afa quickly answered. Bron looked at them coldly and snorted:

- I'm asking about you "All" guys

- ...

Sarvet and Afa turned their heads to look at Tayzi, who only looked away. They gritted their teeth, nodded and said:

- Yes, we're all done running

Professor Bron smiled and walked up to them. As he approached, he placed his hooves on their shoulders and sealed their energy:

- You are truly devoted to your comrades... I sealed your energy, now go run ten more laps. Don't stop until you're done

Sarvet and Afa didn't say anything, they just nodded silently, turned around and ran again.

- Ha, losers oh

- In vain

Giadar chuckled mockingly, and then felt the pressure increase several times. Anbroskaya just shook her head, and Articia, like the others, simply remained silent and simply did their job.

Bron turned to everyone and loudly declared:

- I don't care what your reason was, a lie is still a lie. Even if you lied for the sake of your comrades or perhaps for some other purpose, you still lied. You are still children, a lie is the worst moral sign. I hope you understand

As he spoke, he turned his gaze to the "innocent" Tayzi.

- Tell me, have you finished running yet?

Tayzi honestly shook her head, saying:

- No, the distance is too far, I am also hungry, and I could not stand it any longer

- Therefore, you ran to the city alone thinking that I would not notice and would not see. After going to the city, you ate a lot of different food. While you were out walking, your comrades were training, and they didn't even put crumbs in their mouths, and you returned full and cheerful to the prepared food

Teyzi stared at him with her beautiful eyes.

- Were you following me?

Bron's expression immediately turned cold. He answered with a hint of anger:

- As a professor, I must be responsible for every student who is in my class. Sarvet and Afa were just trying to help you, so they can be forgiven, but you! You left the academy without permission!

- Left the academy without permission, did not follow the academy's instructions, and even made someone lie for you. All these offenses are unacceptable. If this were on the battlefield, then there would be only one outcome for you - this is punishment by military law, namely Death, nothing more

- After all, disobeying orders and rules is severely punished. Only those who are truly strong are independent of the rules and can do whatever they want

Tayze frowned, the beautiful and gentle expression on her face gradually disappeared, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, and an arrogant and disdainful smile appeared on her face.

- This is not a battlefield, but just a pathetic Academy, nothing more

Bron nodded and continued:

- Yes, this is just a pathetic and pathetic Academy, but it is still the Great Diolan Academy

- Right now, I give you two paths to choose from. The first path is to pack your things and leave immediately. The second path is to stay here, but do not break the rules in the future

Tayze smiled, her smile was truly beautiful, but there was something else hidden behind it.

- Bron, who do you think you are? Just a minor Sage of level 207, that's all

Right now, Taizi's expression was no longer so gentle, but rather disdainful, full of that kind of arrogant feeling.

Bron was not angry at her words, and with a slight smile, he replied:

"That's right, I'm just a minor Sage, but for the current you, the difference with me is still too great. The Great Diolan Academy will not tolerate students like you who don't adhere to the rules and behave badly

Everyone understood, that Tayzi had shown her true colors and that she had been good at pretending before. Bron pointed his hoof towards the exit of the Academy where she had recently run:

- You already know the way. No one will see you off

- Hmph, you want me to leave? Not so fast. Bron, I advise you not to interfere in my affairs, otherwise you won't be able to handle the consequences, just like your entire Academy

Tayzi approached and pointed her finger at Bron, to which he simply snorted and shouted:

- Vistan!

Immediately, a young eighteen-year-old boy appeared not far from them in a whirlwind of wind. Bron first glanced at the arrogant Tayzi, and then said to Vistan:

- Vistan, help this little Lady pack her things and leave the Academy

- Bron, how are you...

Tayzi came very close to Bron and tremblingly pointed her little finger at him. He looked at her with an arrogant expression, who was about to explode.

- This place is the territory of the Great Diolan Academy, and my words are law for you here!

- Vistan!

- Yes, Professor

Vistan stepped forward. Tayzi was furious. She pointed her finger at Bron and said:

- You are the first impudent person who was so impudent and rude to me

- Huhu, even if you are the only daughter of the Great Bind Clan, but in the eyes of the Academy, you are just a small Ancestor. There is no one weaker than you here

Bron shook his head and pointed contemptuously. Tayzi, hearing his words, exploded in anger and shouted:

- Nonsense! This can't be! I surpassed the 34th level of Ancestor at the age of twelve. I am one of the greatest geniuses of the clan!

- Hmm, Vistan reached level 48 of the Originator at the age of sixteen, Haldar, Erald, Torkrim and Fiana are already at level 38, and speaking of geniuses, no, Artisia's monsters are already at level 45. All of them are better than you! Also, Lacus, although a little aggressive, is rational and cunning, and Liras has the same level of development as you, but her unwavering will and tenacity are beyond your comprehension, and also...

Bron spoke contemptuously, shocking facts for Tayzi. He told them as if he had known everyone for a long time. He had studied each of his students. Tayzi snorted and turned away:

- I am a support master, not a fighter. I can't be compared to attack masters, and on the battlefield I am the most useful

- Useful!? Ha, without strength and good training, the first one to die on the battlefield will be you

Bron couldn't help but laugh. Tayzi tilted her head mockingly in response and asked:

- Ha, and why is that?

- With your impulsiveness, arrogance and vanity, do you think you can find someone to watch your back? With your character, do you still believe that you can find the same comrades?

Bron snorted, walking in circles around her. Tayzi was stunned for a moment, although Bron's words were bad for her, but their meaning was undeniable, and she did not know how to argue further. Tayzi could not accept this fact and shouted:

- Enough! What about the other support students, I am definitely stronger than them

- You may be stronger than all of them, but the main thing for you is not strength, but usefulness and survivability. Yes, you can be super strong, but if you have little survivability, then you will die faster than you can do anything with your strength. Everyone except you will be able to survive and bring more benefit than you who will quickly die and do nothing

Bron answered coldly, dousing Tayzi's mind with a bucket of ice water. Each phrase of Bron was like sharp swords piercing her heart, in her heart her pride was almost completely destroyed. Bron approached her and quietly whispered to her:

- Now do you understand? Your mistake is not that someone is stronger and more useful, but that you do not admit it. Among all those present, you are the most untalented

Tayzi's face turned pale and the words repeated in her head: - the most untalented, the most untalented, the most untalented...

She suddenly clenched her fists, cried, turned and ran away. After all, she was only a twelve-year-old girl.

A proud smile appeared on Bron's face and he said to himself: - Ha, the little princess decided to contradict me

Wistan looked at Bron's smiling face with a twitching eye and asked:

- Professor Bron, do I still need to help her pack her things?

Bron looked at him intently and shook his head:

- Do you want her to leave? She is at least a little spoiled, but terribly talented. She just needs a little discipline. Go tell Sarvet and Afa that they can stop running and let them go calm down Tayzi

- I'll leave immediately

Wistan nodded and quickly moved in the direction where they were running. And Bron turned around and looked at everyone else.

- Remember that excessive self-confidence slowly but surely kills you from the inside. You must take training seriously

- I understand that this is a boring activity, but in the future it will come in handy

- In our world, the strongest survive. If you are not hardy or slow, you will not live long. Strong is he who has strength and an unshakable spirit!

- You must train and develop hard. Train and develop not only energy, but also body and spirit. As you know, there are four forces: Ascension Energy, soul, your physical body and the power of the Mind

Speaking these words, an overwhelming aura began to emanate from Bron's body, which was on par with the Elders. Every muscle of Bron burned with power and steadfastness. His ascension level was 207, but his real strength was far beyond 230.

- If you want to become truly strong, you should develop each of these forces equally - Energy, soul, consciousness and body. All four forces are inextricably linked with each other and it is important to maintain a balance between them

- The strength of your energy is affected by your Ascension, that is, how high you ascend and the higher your level

- The strength of your soul is affected by your Mind and Spirit, that is, your Will, mental strength, they also say

- The strength of the Mind is affected by your training in this area, I am a master of strength, so I can't tell you about it. The Library and the elder Banlak or Balak, in short, I don't remember, will help you with this

- And finally, physical strength - this is my sphere. Listen and pay attention

- If the energy is powerful, and the body is weak, you will simply destroy it. If the body is incredibly strong and powerful, but with a weak soul and mind, they can simply be destroyed, and you will all

- Isn't it easier to just strengthen your body with the power of Ascension?

At this point, the usually quiet Articia decided to ask a rather interesting question. She was a combat mage, so she did not devote much time to physical training of the body, it was enough for her to strengthen herself and that's it.

- It is possible. Since childhood, you were taught to constantly maintain the strengthening of your body with energy, but you can achieve the same durability and strength without using energy, because what will you do when you run out of it? You will simply be a weak mage who will be crushed like a bushkaku

- So I will need to train a lot and become a pile of muscles?

Articia frowned deeply and did not want to be like that. Bron chuckled at such obvious things and explained:

- I am not saying that you need to improve your body to the state I have. My body is already a peak that even the Eternals cannot reach, so don't worry, even with all the desire you won't become like that

- And thank God

Anbroskaya grinned, and Artisia nodded understandingly. Bron looked at everyone and seeing that there were no questions, continued:

- So, in my classes, we will improve and tighten your physical bodies for survival and battle, so that even being wounded and without energy, you will be able to successfully escape even from those who will have energy. Naturally, you will not escape from those who are much stronger than you in any case, but oh well

- I will also teach you how to successfully and unnoticedly cover long distances without using energy. For example, in an escape, using energy can give away your location, because the enemy can track you down by energy fluctuations, and with a strong body, you can successfully and quickly escape without using energy

- We will also study an unstable stance along the way

- What is an unstable stance?

This time, Haldar was already interested in this and raised his hand. Bron simply called him over and turned him towards the others:

- As you know, all masters strive for a stable stance. After all, when you stand steadily, you can calmly concentrate, that's why everyone creates stability-based techniques, skills and magic

- But I will teach you Free Flow. If you can freely direct your energy and strength in any situation, then you will be able to deliver any blow even with a broken stance

- How so?

Yerald was also interested, like everyone else. Bron grinned and turned Haldar towards him:

- Haldar, push me hard

- Huh? Good

Fum

Haldar pushed Bron with all his strength, sending him flying. Bron, flying rapidly without a stance, without anything, simply swung lightly and hit:

Grummm

A huge stream of wind abruptly blew them all away, sending air as well. They were all shocked by this sudden and strong attack, and then Bron, continuing to fly, waved his hand down.

Fumm

He and all of them landed sharply on the ground. They finally understood the full power of this free flow. In any position, he can use all his strength, regardless of the stance and technique.

- Do you understand now?

- Yes

Haldar and the others, having risen from the ground, were already in anticipation of the training. After all, this method of free energy flow was already very strong. Bron, approaching them, continued:

- In battle, you may not even use your strength, but only catch a chance and break the stable position of your opponent. Most are accustomed to stability and without it they are weak, but do not forget that there are those who can fight without it

- You also should not rely on luck or the enemy's mistake, you need to count on something more reliable. Become predators, and the enemies themselves will become victims

- We are minus three, but nothing. Let's proceed to the next part of the lesson
