"The first stage had been completed and only 500 people are remained standing. People were losing their will to participate in the exam but Shinki's speech got everyone now all are preparing for their second stage"

The attackers are getting their weapons ready and attacking the defence type raiders to test their defence, the healers are calming their nerves to do their absolute best and the medium-range attackers are increasing their precision to hit the target. (John observing his surroundings)

Ah crap! I have never practised my precision using wind ability. I was so focused on increasing the strength of my wind ability and I forgot that, if the ability doesn't hit the mark it is useless even if I put all my force in it. (John nervous)

Hey, are you alright? (Asks Amon)

Ahh, I am not alright I have never practised my precision in using the wind ability. (Tensioned John)

Hey calm down there is still an hour before the exam begins. I will help you practice it. (Amon in confidence)

Really, thank you, brother. But how can you help me? (John confused)

Did you forget I am an earth ability user? I can use the earth. I will create targets for you to practice. (Amon explains)

That would be great. (But isn't earth manipulation requires at least level 3 ability) Don't tell me you are already a level 3 earth ability user. (John surprised)

Shh! Don't shout I don't want to reveal my trump card to everyone here so shut up will ya. (Amon angry)

Sorry about that I was just surprised. (It is amazing that Amon is already a level 3 ability user. If that time I wouldn't have jumped from level 1 to level 3 even with all of my training I would have just reached level 3 at max. But he is already at level 3 and seems like he has reached level 3 for quite a while to make use of normal ground) (John surprised)

But I could make 20 targets at max because I need to conserve my energy for the exam (Amon says)

Ohh, that would be more than enough at present time. (Woh! He can make 20 targets and still say he is conserving energy, how much potential does he have to come to this point so easily) (John thinking)

Let's look for a place where people are minimum shall we (Amon)

Ahh! Sure. (John)

(John and Amon reach a place with minimum people)

This place is good enough I doubt people will come to this place. (Amon)

Yeah, it is perfect. (John)

(Amon starts making the targets meanwhile John practice hitting trees and boulders)

Let's see first I need to control my energy by exerting minimum energy and use my level 3 gust blades and focus on something and then release my ability. (John targets a huge boulder and releases his ability)

What the! What happened I definitely focused on the target and released my ability but why did it change its direction (John confused)

Reading on this site? This novel is published elsewhere. Support the author by seeking out the original.

(The gust blade released by John completely changed its course and was flowed In the direction of the wind)

(John tries to use more of his energy to overcome the wind in his surroundings and uses his ability again to hit the target. But to his surprise, the blade changes its course again.)

(After 10 minutes)

(Breathing heavily) Man, I used so much energy to overcome the wind but it changes its course again. Wait let me think again what am I doing wrong? (John calms down and sits)

Whenever I use my ability it changes its direction according to the direction of the wind but if I continue to spend so much energy I may be able to hit the target but it will cost me much of my energy and I will run out of energy before even 10 shots. (John thinks)

Wait Amon is able to manipulate the earth so I could ask him If I can also manipulate the wind like the earth. (John goes towards Amon)

Hey, Amon can you tell me how you are able to manipulate the ground? (John asks)

Ha! Who said to you that I am able to manipulate the earth. (Amon says)

Hmm, aren't you manipulating the earth now? (John confused)

No no this is not earth manipulation I am just using the properties of the earth to create completely different earth and then shaping it with my earth ability. (Amon)

Huh, what do you mean by that? (John confused)

Let me say it more clearly. I use my earth ability to cut the earth I want to use and the earth which is present to create a completely new earth which is neither mine nor the lands it can be called a domain for a clear abbreviation (Amon explains).

I see so you create a room that is not affected by the outside world where you can manipulate any ability you want freely. So if I can create a domain of my own I would be able to control the wind inside it as I wish. (John thinks)

Ok, I got it. Thank you, for telling me this. (John thanks Amon)

Oh, it's not some kind of secret many people know about this but people are not able to create a domain even after training for more than 10 years. I was lucky because I have knowledge about the land being a researcher but people always don't have that kind of luck. (Amon)

I see. Ok then you prepare the targets I will continue with my stuff. (John goes to the training grounds again)

I cannot possibly make a domain of my own in just 20 minutes so I would try to make a domain that is shaped like a pipe so I could pass my wind blades from the narrow road between two points. (John thinks)

Let's start making our temporary domain. (John starts)

(After 15 minutes)

Man, it is even harder than I thought. I have been using the wind armour for more than a month and in a way that the outside wind does not affect the armour but even after all that I was barely able to make this temporary domain and I could hold it for a maximum of 10 minutes or so, because of the rapid winds present here. So let's start training. (John)

(After 25 minutes)

Finally, I am able to shift the direction of the wind when it touches the windpipe so that it does not affect the wind inside. In portals, the wind is still and it is easy to aim but here the winds change their pressure and course in an instant. But with the windpipe, it is easy to aim here. (John)

Hey John the targets are ready you should start practising soon there are only 10 minutes left. (Amon)

(John places the targets at different positions and shapes the pipe according to the distance between him and the targets)

(John messes up many times and finally starts aiming properly)

(After 10 minutes)

Woh! I am totally surprised John seeing you were able to aim so well in just 10 minutes. What happened to you I can't understand at all. (Amon)

I can't explain that stuff to you now. When we get free time I may tell you then. (John trying to ignore)

Anyway, let's get going to the second stage will begin soon. (Amon grabs John and rushes to the exam place)

Geez! What are you my wife you dragged me like a piece of meat. (John annoyed)

Ok, ok, sorry I didn't have any choice you are too relaxed. (Amon babbling)

"Ladies and gentlemen the time has come to begin the exam so all of you should go to your assigned destinations soon." (Shinki)
