39 Combined Skill Battle (1/2)

Yale bid farewell to Ange and Aizu as he started running towards the Fist Battle Class.

In the end, he lost a lot of time speaking with Aizu and Ange.

Fortunately, Yale's speed increased after reaching the 2-star mortal realm, so he managed to arrive on time.

In that lesson, he had to do the sparring against George. No one else in the class dared to battle against them, so they could only spar together.

That was also something that both liked, as it was better to battle against someone with similar powers.

However, after the first clash of punches, George was at a clear disadvantage.

”You! You already advanced!”

The whole class heard George shocked shout, all of their classmates looked with astonished faces at Yale.

”I was only lucky to master a Combined Skill yesterday at night.”

Yale didn't dare to say that he created a never seen before skill even if he didn't say that was an Origin Skill, mastering that fast a Combined Skill was already difficult to believe for most students.

”So you were trying the same as me, as I expected from my rival. Do you dare to battle with me using just fist related Combined Skills?”

George wanted to fill the disparity of strength with his Combined Skill in which he had a lot of confidence, even if he still lacked a step to master it.

”Alright, I also wanted to try the might of your Combined Skills.”

The only Combined Skill that Yale could use with that rules was Frost Claw, but to battle without weapons was already enough.

Yale could also use the Water Battle Armor as long as he didn't use it to create any weapon, but that skill consumed too much Origin Qi and wasn't optimal for long battles.

George's punches increased in size as a thick layer of earth covered them.

Yale thought that the Combined Skill George's was using in his fists was probably the same as he used in the sword the previous day.

Yale developed his own Sparkling Sword inspiring in that skill. After seeing how George used it, he obtained new insight into it.

”The user upgraded the Combined Skill [Sparkling Sword] to Level 3.”

However, Yale didn't want to use Sparkling Sword in his fists even if it could work.

Using sparks against earth wasn't a wise decision, so Yale instead decided to use his initial idea and created a Frost Claw in a solid state.

Both fists covered by their respective Combined Spells clashed, but that time both were almost at the same level of power.

George had his Combined Skill almost mastered while Yale had it only at level three.

That difference in skill mastery made up for their difference in physical strength.

”The user upgraded the Combined Skill [Frost Claw] to Level 4.”

”The user upgraded the Combined Skill [Frost Claw] to Level 5.”

While sparring, Yale's Frost Claw leveled up two times, that kind of battle was excellent to increase its proficiency.

Sadly, the class ended with both tied; both were unable to beat the other.

In the Rod Battle Class, both continued battling together.

However, Frost Claw wasn't a suitable type of spell to combine with weapons.

On the other hand, George Combined Skill could also affect the rod; it was an excellent Combined Skill focused on physical battle.

Yale didn't have any rod-like Combined Skill, so he decided to use the Ice Spear Combined Skill modifying its form to seem like a rod instead of a spear.

Furthermore, he used it to cover the training rod instead to form a new one.

Using the Ice Spear that way gave the rod more resistance than creating it only with ice.

Both rod abilities were also at the same level, which benefitted both of them a lot.

”The user upgraded the Combined Skill [Ice Spear] to Level 2.”

”Rod Innate Talent: Lowest grade upgraded to Rod Innate Talent: Low grade.”

”The user upgraded the Combined Skill [Ice Spear] to Level 3.”

”The user's power increased and restored; Origin Points increased to 12/12.”

Those four notifications appeared while Yale was battling with George, the constant use of skills in battle made him improve a lot.

However, Yale wasn't the only one who benefited from their battle.

George managed to master his Combined Skill while battling, making a breakthrough to the 2-star in front of everyone.
