Finally the next test had arrived and it turned out to be more of a class than a test.

We were all getting sorted into basic groups depending on what we displayed in the tests prior.

I looked up at the board scanning for significant names.

Wave Controller-25th Bam, Phosenkal Lauroe.
Light Bearer-Khun A.A, Michele Light.
Spear Bearer-Rak Wraithraiser, Akryung.
Scout-Shibisu, Hatz.
Fisherman-Endorsi Jahad, Anaak Jahad, Gisawa.

But there was something else some names had 'Best Seed' next to them, mine included so I raised my hand.

"Yes, Gisawa?" Hangsung answered.

"What does it mean by 'Best Seed'" I questioned

"The Best Seeds are those who have shown the most potential in each position, it's based on performance from your previous tests, with this title you are more likely to pass." Hangsung explained.

I nodded to show that I understood.

So I was a Fisherman, someone who specialises in close range combat, using Shinsu Reinforcement to combat the foes, a teams first line of offence.

We were then plopped into classes and taught how to effectively fulfil our roles, the fisherman teacher Hex was definitely strong and she could definitely teach, she taught us how to reinforce our bodies using shinsu and basic combat, something I didn't exactly need but meh free info.

Then came the most significant thing of the class, a test.

We gathered a top pillars, below was a long drop, there were gaps in between the pillars, but they were easy enough to cross, the test was pretty simple.

We were sent up here and were required to fight, if you got knocked off the pillars and fell you were out, we were only allowed to use the needles given to us by Hex but she didn't say anything about shinsu.

I noticed that Anaak and Endorsi began fighting immediately.

I decided to fight some normal regulars hoping to fight one of the Jahads later on.

Some guy tried to attack me but I turned around in time to send a kick to his stomach.

He was sent rocketing off the pillar and down towards the bottom.

I gripped the needle in my hand as multiple regulars rushed me.

'I'm not used to using a needle, I'd prefer a sword but this'll do!' I thought to myself as I flipped over a very tall regular and stabbed him in the back "Trash does tend to gather up doesn't it?!" I asked him sarcastically before sending a bang into his back.

I whipped my body contorting midair avoiding a flying needle sent by some woman below me, I swiftly sent multiple bangs towards her but Hex called out to me.

"Mr Gisawa, as much as I am intrigued by your affinity for shinsu, this is a Fisherman class not a Wave Controller one."

I sighed returning my left hand to my needle, I clashed with a really buff regular but still his body overrated his own power, I pushed him back and sent a kick into the ground causing debris to recoil up into his face, I sent my needle forward reinforcing both it and myself with shinsu.

Shinsu Needle Skill:
100 Warping Strikes!

I started thrusting my needle into his torso at blistering speeds, it could so fast it caused warping of shinsu causing a rippling effect of some kind.

The buff guy fell down to the ground and the other regulars stood still bit wanting to advance any further.

"If you guys won't come to me, then I'll come to you!!" I rushed at some unlucky guy as he was the first in my eyesight.

Gisawa Style Lethal Move:
Vital Punch!

My fist connected with his forearm as he put his arms up in a poor attempt to block, the ground beneath him shattered and a shockwave was sent out by my fist as he was sent rocketing backwards.

'So much useful energy wasting on theatrics.' I thought to myself looking at my hand 'Perhaps I could try something later on but for now.' I returned my attention to the other regulars most of which had gotten to other pillars.

I was about to chase after some when a loud crash accompanied by a lot of dust appeared in my path.

Anaak and Endorsi had landed on this pillar mid-fight.

'Why is everyone else here so weak?' I asked myself with a blank face looking at the two Jahads fighting

I leapt from pillar to pillar stomping on regulars out of boredom.

'Are they done yet?' I asked myself looking over seeing both of them fall "OH FOR FUCK SAKE!"

I slammed a dudes head into the ground out of anger.

Guess I'm not fighting either of em today.

End of Chapter 5.
