<p>Ria stood confidently behind her team's attacking Elementalists. Things had been going smoothly for her, and the only thing that could give her problem was Susan.<br/> As for Susan's teammates, dealing with them should be easy for the her team, especially with the plan she had come up with.<br/> However, just as she felt like things were starting to turn in her team's favour, a member of Team 16, a brown haired boy suddenly turned his eyes towards her. <br/> She didn't know why, but staring into those set of pitch black eyes caused a chill to run down her spine and she subconsciously stepped backwards. <br/> Just as the earth spikes were about to close in on Harry, a bright blue ball blitzing with lightning suddenly appeared in front of them and blasted them away.<br/> The lightning ball didn't stop there, it shot towards the Elementalist, not slowing down until it hit him right in his stomach.<br/> Small sparks of lightning danced around his body, as his back arched, and the force behind the attack flung him backwards.<br/>Thwack!<br/> His back collided against the hard ground, and his body stopped just behind where Ria stood.<br/> Just before he lost consciousness, his eyes caught sight of the brown haired boy who launched the 'spell', and he couldn't help but wonder: 'He didn't even use any hand signs… how was he even able to cast the spell…?'<br/> As for the water ball heading towards Lin, she managed to cast a water spell at the last second, successfully deflecting the attack.<br/> The moment Harry knocked down one of the Elementalist in Team 4, the hall immediately went silent.<br/> The mouth of almost everyone in the hall were wide agape as they watched a stage one Elementalist knock down another Elementalist with a single attack. <br/> The most shocking thing was how easily Harry seemed to have casted the spell. He didn't even use hand-signs, neither did he chant the spell out loud. It was as if the lightning ball just appeared in front of him.<br/> Even Susan was shocked, and for a moment, her indifferent expression broke and her mouth widened slightly in surprise.<br/> But she quickly composed herself, shaking her head slightly in embarrassment while also feeling glad that no one was actually focusing on her. <br/> Harry stared at the unconscious body of the Elementalist lying on the ground. To be honest, he hadn't actually expected that the lightning ball would be able to knock down the Elementalist in one hit.<br/> However, when he thought about it, it made sense. Lightning ball was already at level four, and it couldn't compare to any tier one spells anymore.<br/> Ria was also shocked by what just happened. She stared at her unconscious teammate for a few seconds before her face morphed into a deep frown. <br/><em> 'He knocked him out… in one hit? I knew it… he isn't just your ordinary stage one Elementalist.' </em>She thought, finally deciding to take this fight more seriously.<br/> Lin, seeing that the Elementalist that attacked her before was also distracted by what just happened, immediately used that opportunity to launch an attack spell of her own.<br/> She clasped her hand together, before quickly chanting the spell. A thick blue liquid swirled rapidly in the middle of her palms before forming into a medium sized water ball.<br/> The said Elementalist noticed this and immediately tried to counter Lin's spell, however, she was too late as Lin already casted the spell.<br/> "Water Ball!" Lin shouted, launching the spiraling water ball towards her opponent.<br/> The water ball flew in the air, hitting the Elementalist right in the chest. She grunted in pain, as the force behind the spell caused her to slide backwards by a few steps.<br/> Harry, seeing that Lin seemed to be doing okay, decided to focus back on Ria alone.<br/> "Lightning Dash!" He shouted, and following his words, a huge amount of lightning started dancing around his body, mainly concentrated on his legs and feet.<br/> Ria, seeing the huge density of lightning flowing around Harry, couldn't help but widen her eyes in shock.<br/><em> 'So much lightning… isn't lightning dash a tier one spell, how can the density of his be so high?!'</em> She couldn't help but wonder.<br/> She wasn't the only one thinking this, Susan was also shocked by the amount of mana and density of lightning surrounding Harry.<br/> She had never seen a tier one spell have such high elemental density, and even looking at Harry, a part of her couldn't help but feel like his spell couldn't be compared to regular tier one spells.<br/> The audience, and even the instructors were was also shocked. Murmurings started rising, about who Harry's strength and identity, and those who attended the same elemental classes with him were burdened with numerous questions. <br/> Susan's eyes lingered on Harry for a few seconds, before her face morphed into a deep frown. For some reason, what annoyed her the most right now was the fact that Harry never used this particular spell when sparring against her.<br/> It was as if he was trying to say she was too weak… too weak for him to go all out while fighting her, and it made her annoyed.<br/> Harry basked in the feeling of lightning coursing all around his body. [Lightning Dash] had already leveled up, and the amount and density of lightning coursing around his body now, was about thrice more than before.<br/> He noticed that a lot of eyes were on him, most of the filled with surprise, while some with intrigue. Usually, he always hated getting attention from others, but for some reason, at this moment, he didn't hate the attention he was receiving.<br/> Rather, it felt like a kind of reward… a rewards for his efforts in the beast forest during the last two weeks.<br/> Subconsciously, his lips curved into a smug smile, and he dashed towards Ria, who he already made up his mind to defeat today.<br/> He had scanned her already using [Probe], and based on the amount of mana she had, she was only a peak stage two Elementalist.<br/> He should be able to defeat her quite easily, even without using his full strength, but he still didn't plan on underestimating her too much. <br/> Ria's face morphed into a frown, as she watched Harry dash towards her with a smug smile on his face. It felt like he was underestimating her, and even looking down on her, and it frustrated her.<br/> '<em>No matter how high your talent may be, you're only a stage one Elementalist! Don't dare look down on me!'</em> She exclaimed inwardly, and flames bursted from her hands.
