The combat assessment was just in the next room. With white floor, walls, and ceiling. All made of solid concrete. The test assessor was just in the center of the room. Waiting for the next applicant to be tested.
He has a white goatee with eyeglasses. Hair that was combed towards the back of his head. He was wearing a suit but it was formed and fit for the upcoming battle. All customized for tests such as these.
He was waiting for Sun Xin to arrive and was curious as to what could be his powers. What surprise would be seen later on. He was just that curious to see new powers everyday.
"Hello, sir. I am Sun Xin. Pleased to meet you," he bowed slightly and stood up.
"I am Fang Zoan. A combat tester. Let us proceed to the test yes? I know you are excited too. Your hands are trembling." he mused.
"Of course, I am!" Sun Xin smiled. He couldn't quite relax for a bit. As for his powers, he would like to test it now. It would be his first time using it. As for how to use it, he still did not know.
"What is your awakened powers?" Zoan asked him.
"Cloning sir," he replied.
"Do you know how to use it?" Zoan asked.
"No sir," Xin replied with a bit of a disappointment.
"Well, that is our job. To know your power and how to activate it."
"I see, thanks!" Xin replied enthusiastically.
"First try to ask the System," Zoan said to him.
"Okay," Xin immediately talked to the system.
"System, use clone," Xin commanded.
Immediately, a clone appeared.
"Now, use the skill without the help of the System. Just your thought or instinct," Zoan commanded.
Xin immediately get the instructions and tried to do it without the system's help. He first thought of his powers and commanded it with just his thought. Immediately, a clone appeared.
"Good! Now let us try it in combat. Can you command it?" he asked.
"I'll try," Xin immediately looked at it and he immediately knew his thoughts. They could even talk in their minds.
From where he was standing, a same clothing was standing right in front of him. Also with the same weapon, the broadsword.
"Then let us try it on combat, are you ready?" He asked.
"Yes!"
The two were now ready and Xin stared at his opponent. He wears a sleeveless top and it extends towards his knees. Buttons were on his chest down to his waist. The pants were fit but the thighs were so buff that it made Xin gulp when he imagines the two of them clash. His feet wear sandals, fitting for a martial artist like him.
The referee made them approach each other and then while approaching, Zoan was cracking his neck and knuckles. can only smirk at the moment. It was then, they shook hands with each other. The referee then stated the rules in combat without delays.
"The use of weapons is not prohibited especially if that is how you fight. But refrain from dealing crippling damage to your enemy. The test will only last five minutes and the result will be decided after that," The referee said to them.
"Okay, that's it! Ready now, and fight!" He said then shouted.
Xin then draw his broadsword and his clone also did the same. The tester wielded a staff and swirled it left and right. The enemy dashed towards him with all his speed. To Xin's surprise, he exceeds the stat of a normal person. By just looking at his burst of speed, he has a stat of way over the fifties. He then felt it would be a hassle to defeat him.
The enemy then appeared right at his face. Crouching and his staff were already prepared to launch at him. The two then comboed their attacks and slashed towards his weapon.
Sparks were made as the two attacked in different directions. With their experience as underground martial artists, it would be a hassle for the enemy to withstand his quick blows.
Zoan rotated his staff and deflected their attacks towards his side. Barely making it with his sheer force. Xin then launched his knee towards Zoan as a response but Zoan can only block it with his staff. Bending it on the process and he was flung towards the edge.
While he was trying not to fall, he was chased by the clone and he disappeared right at his face.
"Oh geez, this is bad," Zoan said.
He was side slammed by his enemy and he was flung towards the centre of the platform. Xin then rotated then sat on the marble floor. The enemy was a good staff user from Xin's perspective.
'This person was a staff user since young and maybe prepared for years towards this day. I should get serious,'
He rotated his staff then dashed towards the Xin. The enemy went again in the offensive but this time around, Xin was also in the offensive. Xin smashed his staff and the enemy deflected it with weapon . Another smash was made but he received it with his staff.
Xin attacked with perseverance and comboed with his clone. His attacks has no countering chance as his clone covered for him.
The enemy tried to attack him with several smashes but Xin evaded them. It was fast that his smashes were rapidly increasing in speed. Some of them were even smacked by the sword.
Bing! Bang! Bang! Bing!
They sounded. The hands of his enemy were getting numbed but it was like he didn't felt anything at all. Xin still was in a bind. The enemy did just blew his hands and then it was now okay. He knew that he has to do something about it or he will suffer.
Xin then thought that it would be best to battle him with a more serious attacks. Thinking of it, he made his staff to swirl and then prepared for an all-out battle.
Xin on the contrary was confident. He dashed towards him and then the enemy smashed him. Xin then slapped his hands sideways and then his other hand aimed at the face. Making him flinch in response. It was done without fail in a split second. Xin countered his attacks and rapidly smacked his vital parts. Making him flinch continuously without fail. It was like a master bullying a student.
Xin's speed rose and rose until the enemy can barely breathe. Making him slam his butt on the floor.
"Uhuk! Uhuk! Uhuk! I surrender! I surrender!" He shouted.
It was the first time that it happened. And it seemed the testing area was in utter disbelief. Making them silent and they can only stare at Xin who walks down the stage. It was utter destruction on the enemy's side.
"Good! Good! I will immediately give the results."
Power rating: C
Martial combat: A
Overall combat rating: B
"Your clones has martial arts so it was one thing that the enemies will be looking out for you. You also has good control of your clones. Your power is good but it has limitations. You can only make 1 clone for now but it will be devastating if it will be in hundreds. So it will be on C class. It could only clone yourself. But your combat rating is on par with A class. So in overall result, it will be on B."
The fights lasted until the afternoon and so the test ended. It was now time for the results of his rank and the result was B rank!
Though Xin himself did not go all out to his enemy and thus got the class tier of B–rank 32. It was then, his hunter license was given to him and he was at last, now a Hunter!
