After the Annual Exam was announced, Kajal was able to attain the first rank, while Rishi was given the second spot. What surprised everyone was Rank 3: Vinay, Nina, and Rajan.
In the guild ranking, All-Stars was able to secure the first rank easily. A rumor also spread that Rajan had joined the All-Stars. This made this guild stronger; everyone awaited its performance in bigger competitions. After the exam, every student was given a prize in the assembly. After that, the Academy closed again for two months. Rishi decided to move to his farm.
He saw six one-foot-tall Moa birds running in the field. The field has been completely changed. It now had many plants and trees. He saw that the pond also looked natural now. The atmosphere here was calm and peaceful. After all the chaos he had faced, this was a nice feeling.
There, he practiced all day while also taking care of the Moa birds. The chicks have grown fast. He advised Jiya about how to take better care of them till he was sure she could take care of them independently. He decided to return to his clan; he was not sure what would happen this time.
As he was moving back, he realized today was special. Today was his birthday; it was April 21. It had been some time since he celebrated his birthday. He decided to celebrate it by enjoying this day. He booked a room in a hotel and took a shower. After dressing neatly, he decided to order something expensive.
His food was served to him soon. He noticed the empty seats around him but didn't ask anything. He started devouring his food while looking at the view of the city from the window. He saw people moving from one place to another.
Some were doing their work, while others were just passing by. The lives of normal people were chaotic. He decided to focus on his food, which was very delicious. It was made from the meat of a high-level Magic Beast, and after finishing his meal, he decided to leave the place.
He noticed that this time, not many people were following him. He used his concealment technique and disappeared. After leaving the city, he summoned Hansi and sat on her back. The Beast started flying, taking him back to his clan. It didn't take him long to reach his town.
The two towns appeared in front of him again. He used his concealment technique and entered the town. He first moved to Naya Town, and there he found out that Kajal had returned. The news that she had topped her Academy was circulated.
With it, the name of Rank 2 has also become famous. Many people in the town have heard that he is also very talented. After buying some potions, Rishi decided to leave. He moved to Puna Town, where people were also praising Shreya, who was able to graduate from Mazar Academy as a topper.
The people of both towns were happy; this was the first time Rishi had found out that both towns were very calm. People were full of joy. It was as if everyone was happy here. He moved to his clan and went straight to his teacher. His teacher was living the same life.
He was practicing with his chakram; nothing around him mattered to him. He noticed that Rishi had returned, but he didn't say anything and continued his training. After he was finished, he made tea for both of them and asked Rishi how he was doing.
They talked for some time, and Rishi showed him his skills. He guided Rishi on how to use them in a better way, and Rishi then asked him about Zone. He wanted to know his views about which type of zone he should create. His teacher stood up and closed his eyes.
The next second, the area around him started to transform, and Rishi felt the air around him start to become hotter. He then saw that a lotus-shaped area around his master started turning red. The only difference was that the petals were way longer than an average lotus.
He then used more power, and the petals came to life and started to move. He disappeared from his place and appeared on the edge of one petal. The next moment, he appeared on the edge of another petal. He then started to move at such speed that it appeared as if he were everywhere.
He then appeared in front of Rishi, and soon Rishi felt that, as if the Zone had shifted, He was at the center of the Zone. He found out that the air around him was applying pressure to him and that there was no oxygen around him. The area below him was shaking while shining red, as if it would blast at any moment.
He was in a stunned state, unable to move. He looked around again and saw images of his teacher looking at him from every side. He then blew some air at him. The next moment, Rishi felt that he could feel wind coming from all sides. Everything returned to normal the next moment, and Rishi opened his eyes again.
"What I showed you was my semi-domain. It gave me many boosts, but its main abilities are momentary and restrictive. Once I lock anyone at its center, then it is game over for him. It doesn't matter how formidable his defense is. Once I complete my Domain, I will be able to place more restrictions on my opponents," he said.
"For now, I am only able to use the wind element to restrict the moment and cut the supply of Oxyzen. What I want is to create an area inside which, if you try to move without my permission, you will receive the burn effect constantly. Forget about it; I showed this to you to show you how a Zone operates," he added.
Rishi nodded after seeing the semi-dominance of his teacher. He was able to guess how the Zones operated and how strong a fully mastered zone was. Now he was ready to start working on his zone. He wanted to finish his Mana heart, but he was advised not to touch it before the three-month mark.
He was frustrated because of it. He thought he would finish his Mana Heart fast, but after doing some more research, he realized that it would not work out. His heart would burst apart. If that were only the case, Rishi would not have been worried, but the second part was scary. He would need to start again, which made him stop working on his Mana Heart.
He was now more motivated to work on his zone. He was inspired by Shreya and decided that he would create two semi-zones and then combine them to create a hybrid Zone. Before creating a zone, he wanted to think about the basic idea.
He first thought about what he had. "I have powerful concealment, strong Crowd Control skills, powerful PvP skills, and decent AOE skills. My movement art is also good for chasing enemies that are far away, but when it comes to close-distance movement, I am not good."
"My close-distance movement skills are situation-based; if there are not many opponents, I can't rely on 'Sword Dash'. If there is no shadow, I can't use 'Shadow Blink.' 'Shadow Steps' boosts my movement speed, but it doesn't give me any Dash skills."
