My Space-Time System

Chapter 186 - Combat Techniques.



The next day, Blake wasn't as psyched as the previous day. He had 2 of his worse classes, history, and advanced combat training.

From the first class, Blake was expecting that history class would help him find his purpose in Infinite realm, but in the end, he was disappointed.

​​

The history class focused more on the history of the Synder Empire and Blake had a feeling that some of it was tampered with and re-written.

As for advanced combat training, who in their right minds would enjoy it. Blake was enthusiastic about body enhancing training but that of Zirrack was over the top.

Unlike the classes of the previous day, the history and advance combat didn't have a need for introduction.

The topic of the history class was the troubles that occurred in the construction of Calton city.

At the time of construction, the ash corps was in charge of exterminating beasts that came within 10 kilometers of the city, but as construction went on there were reports of sightings of an emperor tier beast.

It was an emperor tier Inazuma which was sighted hundreds of kilometers away from the construction site. Although it was quite far away, it was too dangerous to have such a beast that close to a city.

So, Synder went to dispatch the emperor beast, but when the battle began he discovered it was a peak emperor tier Inazuma.

It was a tough and close battle that almost spelled the death of Synder, but he managed to pull it off and that led to the successful completion of Calton city.

"Professor Bach, according to your story. Emperor Synder at that time was in the Battle angel realm, so how is it possible that he was able to defeat a peak emperor tier Inazuma?" Blake asked.

"Well, that is why he is the emperor of our great empire. He was able to make opponents far stronger than him cower at his feet." Professor Bach said.

'Just like I expected.' Blake nodded as if he agreed before taking a seat.

[The normal hype that comes with every leading figure. Emperor tier beasts could easily erase anything below the battle angel realm and even when faced against the battle angels they can stand their grounds against 2.] The system said.

[So, unless he had attained godhood or he had tons of legendary artifacts and equipment then there is no way he was winning that.] The system discredited the professor's words.

'We may never know the truth, but some people might." Blake looked at Luciano.

Since it was something that involved his grandfather he was sure to know about it, but one thing he didn't know was that Zirrack just recently found out about it.

When the time for advanced combat class arrived, the students who were praying for the misfortune of their instructor were heavily disappointed.

Zirrack arrived at the battleground and for some reason, a grin was on his face whenever he looked at either, Blake, Brian, or Castiel.

'Yup, we are royally fucked.' Blake said using the mind link.

'Castiel was the one that said those words, not me, so why do I have to suffer for it.' Brian complained.

'We are in this together now. So there is no point in complaining about it.' Castiel chuckled causing Blake and Brian to glare at him.

"I don't see the need in hiding things, so I will tell you all. The school was pleased by my training and unfortunately for you all, they requested that I turn the heat up." Zirrack paused for a moment and looked at the faces of the students.

It had become common knowledge to everyone in the elite class that no matter what you do, do not complain or frown in Zirrack's class.

"For a moment I thought most of you have forgotten your training. Good job." Zirrack said.

"Last semester we focused on improving your physical capabilities. This semester we will be focusing on improving your combat skills, physical enhancement, physical capabilities, teamwork, and physical capabilities." Zirrack said.

"Huh?"

Many were confused that he mentioned physical capabilities 3 times, but Blake was well aware that it was no mistake.

"We studied the normal fighting techniques to be used when facing both beasts and man, but this time we would be learning a special technique that affects our power output in different ways."

"Most of you especially the nobles, already know about these combat techniques. They can come in form of stances, certain patterns of body movements, breathing techniques, and so on.

These combat techniques are like cheats that let's one command nature to some certain degree." Zirrack explained.

Vlad's dragon stance and Blake's Raiju breathing technique were typical examples. The dragon stance allowed the user to control the fire energy in the environment in order to increase the power output.

On the other hand, the Raiju breathing technique allows the body to absorb lightning energy and transfers them to the muscle, enabling the user to exert more force when performing attacks.

Also, the lightning energy absorbed would improve both lightning attacks, spells, and even resistance to lightning-based abilities.

"Mastering this would lead us to physical enhancements, but that isn't for today. Now, these are the exercises you all are to carry out." Zirrack said

Finally, the moment of suffering had arrived.

After the gruesome exercises, Blake had a quick shower and headed for the library.

"According to Zirrack's surprisingly interesting lecture, there are different stages to every combat technique. So, what if the Raiju breathing technique had a second stage." Blake said as he immediately went up to the 2nd floor.

[There surely are different stages of some combat techniques, but their rarity is dependent on the grade of the technique. Because no one would want to make something so powerful free.] The system said.

[As for yours, I don't have knowledge of the existence of the other stages, and considering how lucky you were to find the first stage, I highly doubt you will find the next one.]
