Lucky Riot And The Mystic Dragon

"Ah? Oh!" Instructor Sir Wale was still in a daze with his jaw hanging, but hearing Maggie's voice, he quickly sobered up, "Ahem. Nice work, both of you. Remember, this is just a light and friendly spar, no need for grudges to be formed. The winner, Lucky Riot!"

"He really won, and on his first day."

"It was only one move!!"

"That's impressive."

"Whew~ Lucky! I knew you could do it! You truly did not let this princess down!"

"Enough, everyone return!" shout the junior instructor fiercely, as he waved his hand and burned the vomit away into nothingness with his mystic essence ki, intimidating the surrounding warriors. Sir Wale beckoned everyone back onto the platform after tasking Curtis Liverpool with cleaning up whatever remained. Curtis was heavily indignant and slightly injured, but he cleaned up and then returned to the formation of students. Sir Wale stood with dignity as he spoke, "The match is over, but training has only just started! Line up!"

The rest of the morning went off without a hitch. The junior section of advanced class 57 trained their bodies according to their assigned regime. On paper, Kasino Riot was paired up with Aubrey Graham, much to Margot Frenzy's dismay. Meanwhile, Maggie herself was paired with Caine Sinatra, which Lucky himself felt none too fond of seeing. Caine was a well-known pursuer of Maggie, and the only one Lucky felt could actually match her talent. This would be their training partners for every morning session of the class! They would learn and grow with these partners all year long and even compete against others.

This meant that in the future, Lucky and Aubrey would need to spar against Caine and Maggie.

In the junior section of the warriors class, there were a total of 55 students, while in the senior part, there were 12. The 55 students of the junior section were paired with minor consideration to gender. As there were only twenty-seven young women and forty-five young men, he just paired the new females with a student approaching the eighth level, and the remaining males were paired with each other. Lucky faced the opposite situation, as Aubrey was the one approaching the eighth level.

"I'm sure you've all practiced refining origin energy into mystic class essence while maintaining the budding-foundation stance. This exercise is suitable only for the weak. Today, we'll start with the force-building stance! This exercise is meant to help you in building up the endurance of your spirit circuits, widening them and tempering them to endure the passage of more force, and for more extended periods.

For warriors, endurance is essential! With highly tempered spirit circuits, you can store more energy, utilize more power, and refine force quicker! This allows you to maintain your peak state for more extended periods. How long you can preserve your peak state will more often than not determine the outcome of a battle! This is the foundation!"

The junior warriors of class 57 all had fire in their eyes as they listened to the junior instructor's teaching. Lucky Riot was no exception! Under the teacher's instruction, Lucky and the other students first stretched and did some heavy cardiovascular exercising, before they assumed a stance where their legs were spread apart, and one arm crossed the torso while the other pressed the heart.

The remainder of the session was spent cultivating in this stance. Surrounded by lush green trees, Lucky breathed in a dense mouthful of the fresh air. He noticed that he was able to clearly sense the seven major elemental forces that existed between the heavens and the earth.

Standard spirit circuits were divided by their resonating attributes. Still, Lucky's Primal Yin and Yang Divine Circuits resonated with all of the natural forces of the world in their purest form. He was able to clearly sense all seven natural elements of original energy in the atmosphere. Thus he was seemingly able to practice all seven elements of Mystic ki.

"Truly wicked. If it's really like this, won't I be super awesome in the future?" Lucky Riot mused to himself. After all, most warriors were proficient in only one type of force for their entire lives. They simply couldn't learn others. Whereas, Lucky himself could learn at least seven.

Of course, Lucky's knowledge was limited to warriors at the Hard Body Mystic Stage.

"I'll have to find time to try this out… what kind of freakish physique could possibly contain affinity with every force?" part of Lucky felt like he was merely ignorant. It just felt too surreal.

He operated the {Primal Madness Sacred Exercise} and the Primal Madness Yin Yang diagram in his mystic root rotated in tandem. This made the original force around him surge directly into his body like water going down a drain. The {Primal Madness Sacred Exercise} was a Sacred level Essence Exercise, the kind said to only be practiced by the old gods. One needed divine blood to execute such a technique without energy! It had extreme vital requirements. Regular people simply couldn't bear to practice such an exercise.

Sacred Exercises were said to be derived directly from divine exercises! In this way, they could be considered incomplete divine exercises. They were said to have the potential to rupture the fabric of space and time, rain hellfire from the void, or strike the ground with heavenly lightning.

They were genuinely imposing as far as mental cultivation methods went. After practicing this method for the last few days, Lucky Riot had started to notice the whispers of something else buried in his mind. Only he couldn't make it out entirely yet. All he knew was that there was another technique he would understand once he reached a particular proficiency with the method mentioned earlier. He was currently at the initial success stage of the Primal Ki he gained from operating the {Primal Madness Sacred Exercise}, and it was only when cultivating the Primal Ki to the next step that he would be able to understand the whispers.

Lucky felt like this day was not far away at all. As he operated the {Primal Madness Sacred Exercise}, excessive amounts of original force surged into his body. Lucky kept refining peaceful Origin Ki into volatile Primal Essence Ki. Primal and origin ki were always tempering the large and small divine circuits of his body, making them thicker and sturdier.

Eventually, the junior instructor cast a surprised glance as Lucky, as his perception had picked up this strange phenomenon.

"What the hell is this kid?" Sir Wale silently mused to himself, "Could this be the legendary High-Grade Spirit Circuits?"

The absorption rate of Origin Ki for any High-Grade Spirit Circuit was so fast that it put typical students to absolute shame! A human's Spirit Circuits took a long time to m.a.t.u.r.e, about 12 years total. Most 12-year-old youths with Spirit Circuits would begin displaying powers related to them by age 13. What Junior Instructor Wale couldn't figure out, was that if this kid had High-Grade Spirit Circuits, then what the heck took him so long to reach this stage?

Of course, what he didn't know was the Lucky Riot possessed Divine Circuits! Divine Circuits didn't m.a.t.u.r.e until around age 15 or 16, and they were many worlds apart from High-Grade Spirit Circuits. The absorption rate of the two simply couldn't be compared at all! The junior students in Class 57 didn't even realize that due to the origin ki Lucky was drawing in, the fundamental forces of this area had suddenly become a bit thicker, aiding everyone else in their cultivations as well.

Of course, their benefit was minuscule in comparison to Lucky's benefit. If not for the original amplifying array laid out over the training field consistently producing new original force, just him cultivating would make him the enemy of the entire class. It would be impossible for them to develop next to him!

Lucky maintained the force-building stance while operating the {Primal Madness Sacred Exercise}. Origin Ki entered his body, slowly purifying him with its gentle force. The Origin Ki was like a milky river of pure white tempering his bones, flesh, muscles, original circuits, as every inch of his body became sturdy and slightly more defined and robust.

As the origin ki passed through his hand and into his heart, what his body generated back out was a powerful stream of uniquely attributed mystic essence ki, the primal ki! The ki contained extremely formidable force and joined the origin ki in tempering his body after generating.

The peeping Junior Instructor Wale was shocked the find that Lucky had subconsciously entered a deep cultivation state.

This was not something that could be taught!

This was a product of excessive comprehensive talent.

"Definitely not normal… guess I gotta tell the boss, after all…" mused Sir Wale under his breath. Across the field, unbeknownst to anyone, the senior instructor lifted his brow at Sir Wale's words.

"Boss, huh…" thought Senior Instructor Maze, as a dangerous glint appeared in his eyes for the briefest of instances, "Seems that Sir Wale may be an outsider too."

Meanwhile, Lucky could feel his blood essence vibrate slightly as he maintained the force-building stance. Every time the mystic origin within him spread to the hand pressed against his heart, it would pass through his fingers and directly into his heart! After passing through his heart, some of his lifeblood essences would accompany the mystic origin to refine his body!

"The force-building stance! This method seems to give students a preliminary method of releasing mystic strength. Only by releasing mystic strength from the body could the origin force travel from my palm to my heart. Although for others, it's likely more difficult, it's definitely not too challenging to do so using this method. Truly impressive," Lucky Riot was genuinely impressed by this training method. It was good stuff! If he hadn't already been able to release mystic strength, this would have definitely guided him in the right direction! Since he could already do so, this method helped him learn some timely control over his abilities.

Once he reached the eighth level, he would already have firm control over it. As things stood now, he would be able to temper both his body and his control over his mystic strength. As a pleasant burst of sunlight rose higher into the sky, the morning session of the Warrior class came to a close.
