Shang put everything about Mattheo to the back of his mind. He had several more questions to ask him, but his fight with Astor was far more important.

Shang had done a lot in the past week.

He had upgraded his weapon.

He had killed his first General Stage beast.

He had gotten very familiar with his new Affinities.

Now, it was his time to prove that he had become more powerful.

"Start!" teacher Loran announced.

BANG!

Shang exploded forward, the ground below him cracking.

The watching students' eyes shone.

Shang was faster than before!

His body obviously hadn't become more powerful, but his speed was definitely higher. That meant that Shang had gained far greater control over his body.

Astor readied his sword as he stepped backward with one leg. He was obviously readying a counterattack to Shang's offensive.

Shang pointed his left arm to the back.

BANG!

Shang unleashed an Ice Blast, which shot him forward at incredible speeds.

At this moment, Shang reached the speed of an Initial General Stage warrior.

Astor readied a shoulder check.

Yet, Astor's eyes widened when he saw Shang appear right in front of him in an instant.

Shang's sword swung.

CLINK!

Teacher Loran stopped the sword just before it hit Astor's head.

Silence.

Deafening silence.

Astor looked with shock at the sword in front of his eyes.

The students watched with slack jaws.
