Chapter 12

-----------------

After the examination trials were done, all the recruits were given a tour around the whole realm. While that was going on, the 4 high judges sat down together as they were discussing their next plan on the agenda.

"Okay, now the new recruits are finally here, it's time to 'vanish' from the public eye. We need to take time and focus on each student individually. We need all hands on deck on this one. Everyone; the teachers, the guards, the envoys, and guards can all teach the students. Together, they are enough to focus on a majority of students." Kuninkaan suggested.

"We can also make all them swear a blood contract. With this, we can freely copy and release all the different types of arts, techniques, and skills they need to improve. We must not spare any effort, these are our pride. They symbolize everything this school will ever stand for. Who knows, maybe one day, we will be so great that we will be a sect. Haha," Púrpura said as she laughed heartily.

"You're right. We have to start as soon as possible! Plus, don't we have 5 years until the martial art school competitions start? And the year after that is the Mystic and Elementalist competitions. We must make sure we shock the WHOLE GALAXY!" Zöld said with a burning passion in her eyes.

"All right then, let's get to work. In these competitions, we must take them all by surprise." Kuld said as he laughed.

"I suggest we teach them martial arts first. This way, their bodies will be fit enough to go into their natural branches. What do you guys think?" Kuld asked.

"I mean, there are different roads in martial arts. There are different types of martial art cultivators. Why don't we just train them in the specific bodies or path fit for them?" Zöld asked innocently.

"Yes, but we also need to teach them stealth and breathing techniques. Plus, if any of the skills conflict with their bloodline talent, we can simply make more skills that can do better. One that complements both the bloodline and the martial arts. This way, none of our students stray from their desired martial path." Kuninkaan chimed in.

"I have an even better idea. Why not teach all of it? Mystic or Arcrance arts; which is the practice of strictly magic arts such as telekinesis and bloodline arts. Elemental arts; which is the study and practice of four elements of matter: earth, water, air, and fire. Martial arts; which is the study and practice of cultivation. We can then make a program that would combine all of these into one art. This type of art can be made and strictly taught in Omnilock school. It would be called abominable arts. We can also add everything you guys have said into these arts too! What do you all think?" Púrpura suggested with her chest puffed up with a sense of pride and confidence in her words.

"I think I'm speaking on the behalf of the other high judges here. We like it, and we will implement this as the core structure of study in the school. Thank you." Kuld said calmly.

"You're welcome" Púrpura replied as she was unable to contain her joy.

2 Days after,

The plan of study was announced. The students were shocked at the wide variety of options their school gave them. However, since they are the first set of students, they were all automatically enrolled into the abominable arts department as a major. This way, everyone will be on the same stage. Plus, since every student is under 10 years old, they will have the choice to enter another program later in the future when they are older. However, for now, they will all be enrolled into the abominable arts program as a foundation for whatever program they may desire in the future.

In the classes, some students could be seen learning the foundations of the three various arts. Many of these students were so serious and studious. They put in every effort to listen more attentively every day. In the martial world, outside in the fields, other students could be seen practicing martial arts. They sited on mats meditating as they practiced the qi condensing forms. Through this, they can build their foundation for cultivation.

In the mornings, they ran drills, exercised, and spared. Over time, more and more students started developing martial bodies. Thanks to the ether-rich atmosphere in the meditation rooms, most students quickly developed. It was amazing.

Just by watching the progress of these students, the 4 principals, teachers, and guards were all shocked by the progress of the students.

---

"This is only the beginning, there's still more to be accomplished. I'm so proud of then" Zöld said as she watched from her quarters.

From another mountain, there was a shadow watching in the far distance as a calm set of wind blew. "I am so proud to be the founder of this beautiful school and for these wonderful students. I really want to thank you all for agreeing to do this beautiful work with me. Thank you all so much" The figure said aloud and vanished.

As the figure vanished, the ears and brows of the high judges twitched and perched up as though they had heard something from the passing wind. Kuld and Púrpura were in their quarters meditating, while Zöld and Kuninkaan were assisting the elders and more. After hearing the words from the Creator, the high judges were inexplicably happy. Now, there were filled with more zeal in their hearts to put their bests into the school. Unconsciously, due to zeal and joy from the high judges, the mountains started to tremble almost uncontrollably. Many sleeping disciples woke up in search of the cause. Even the guards were shocked. They knew very well that they had done their jobs well and no intruder had ever entered the school yet. Some even doubted themselves and started questioning one another. While some went to check for the supposed intruder. To everyone's shock, the most were that the momentous earthquake was coming from the sacred mountains of the principals! Everyone knew very well, that without the consent of the senior elders or the principals themselves, no one was allowed to be near the foot of these sacred mountains. The aura and power exuded alone were enough to easily crush the current disciples of Omnilock.

"Ah! What are we going to do? Did someone attempt to attack the principals? Do they even have the might? Haha..let's just wait and see which idiots would be foolish enough to even do so." One guard said as he pointed towards the mountains of the principals.

"I tell you, I mean, just looking at the school alone, one can tell the owners of this lofty place are figures not to be trifled with. I even dare to say that figures no less than the universal judges can even dare to oppose our principles. I mean, how foolish can people be nowadays?" Another guard said with a hint of pity in his voice.

Shortly after, the four principles came back to their senses and suppressed their joy. Filled with shame and embarrassment, the 4 high judges came out of their resting quarters one by one. In shock, they saw the whole school, staff, guards, and elders had come here to check what was going on. This sight alone made them feel chills of guilt down their spine.

"Oh, sorry. On the behalf of the other principals, we are sorry. We didn't mean to disturb anyone's night. Please, go back and rest."Kuld said as he looked at the congregation.

2 years later,

The students of Omnilock school had been making tremendous progress in martial arts. Most of them have now developed peculiar martial art talents, martial skills, and even built combat experience, fighting instincts, and fighting experience. These students, when fighting, seem to be natural fighters. Their kicks, punches, and movements seemed to be easy and seamless. Almost like a leaf flowing with the winds. It was smooth and free.

The students had long since developed their meridians and refined their acupoints. Due to the help of the school teachers, elders, envoys, and guards, the students' foundations were almost incomparable. Due to this, their bones, and organs had also been refined. Making them stronger, faster, and stealthier. Most of these students have also made their dantains thanks to the resources and teachings of Omnilock school. Due to the abominable arts made by Omnilock school, the martial arts that these students practiced seemed to be tailor-made just for them. This helped them reduce the difficulties faced when they were breaking through small realms. As for the larger realms, it depended on the ability of the students.

Nevertheless, these students never lacked experience. Most of these students have spent the last year in the martial world fighting wild beasts, hunting, and going on missions set by the school. Also, the students were also taught during public seminars by the four principals ofOmnilock School.

3 years later,

The students of Omnilock School had finally learned and progressed enough to reach the xaintain realm. The foundation of their dantains had been strong enough to grow and form their own xaintain vortex. Now, their control over martial arts has been more profound and stronger than before. They could now control their abilities more precisely than 2 years ago. These students now could be classified as geniuses in their own respect. Each student in Omnilock school is now up to the age of 14 years old. Not many martial cultivators in the world are gifted and talented enough to reach the xaintain stage at the age of 14. You must know that such people have spectacular comprehension and willpower in their martial path to be able to understand and cultivate effectively into their respective martial paths.

Now, the students of Omnilock school can easily cover hundreds of miles with one step. Some can even shake mountains with a punch of their fists. Others of lower-ranking levels can battle rank D absolute wild beasts without the need for weapons despite the power difference. This kind of confidence is only something common among the Students of Omnilock school.

5 months later,

The district martial art school competitions were about to start. Since Omnilock school had its own realm, the students were sent back to their various planets to represent Omnilock School. One can tell that this act is very daring and provocative. Who does Omnilock School think they are to be able to send their students back to their home planets to represent Omnilock?

However, each student was sent back to their home planets with the task assigned to win every martial competition to the best of their ability. Junior envoys were sent to act as representatives who will accompany these students as they competed.

----

The Marley district martial competition was a famous competition practiced across multiple planets. This is where all the districts within the participating planets gather their martial schools to compete. The aim of this competition is to motivate the students to become better and hopefully gain insights from one another. On the other hand, it was also a way to identify which schools had the best sets of promising students.

Now, on the third day of the fifth month, many students had now arrived on their planet of origin. Upon arrival, many of these students were burning with passion to show off their talents, After suffering years of endless abuse, and disrespect. It was high time to pay their debtors' what was due. It was time to get their revenge.

White tiger arena,

Standing on a white and black arena, the anchor announced, "Welcome everyone. Today, I, John Coal, will be your referee and anchor of this event. As you all know, this event only happens once every five years. That being said, you all know the rules. Participants ages 10 to 15 are only allowed to participate. Anyone older, or younger is not qualified to participate, The participant must have a backer or school in which they are representing. A representative from the school must also be present to watch. No death is allowed within this event, Stepping out of the ring or using pill enhancement drugs are not allowed. If caught, you will be disqualified and punished by the district martial court, Do not say I did not warn you." Mr, John Coal said.

"Now, that being said. The first prize will be two earth-grade martial arts, an elixir pill, and a weapon. The second place will receive one earth-grade martial art. The third place will receive a chance to cultivate in the mayor's sacred chambers for six months. As for the rest, you can only work harder to receive a reward. Only the top two will move on to the regional martial competition, the rest will return to their own schools and sects." the anchor, John Coal announced to the congregation.

"There are 5,000 participants. Each student will be split into five groups of a thousand participants. The first round will be from testing the aptitude of each student. It would be called the stairs of fate. Only 2,000 students will move on to the next trial. Good luck" John says as he disappears from the stage.

As time progressed, all the 400 students from Omnilock school made it to the next trial. Looking at the leaderboard, people from the congregation started to recognize some of the students from Omnilock school.

One participant recognized a student, he pointed towards the arena and said, "Wait, isn't that Jabbar Akmed, who is the son of that poor crippled old man who died? Wow, how did that brat even get to enter such a school? His luck must not be bad after all. Let me see how he will do in the next trial. I hope I face him, I want everybody to watch and know how much of a natural-born loser he is."

One after another, various onlookers recognized the waste talents that used to be in their societies. This caused an uproar within the congregation and contestants because they felt too lofty to be tried with people of waste talents.

After noticing the disaster that was brewing, John Coal, the anchor announced the next trial. "The next trial will be a team challenge. Each team will have a total of 4 members in it. That being said, only 500 students will make it to the next round"

Hearing the cut mark, people started burning with passion. No one wanted to fail, but someone had to fail in order to move on to the next round.

One by one, teams started to fall very quickly. To everyone's surprise, none of the students from Omnilock School had failed. However, it was the students of Omnilock that eliminated the most number of teams. Upon seeing this, some school elders started to challenge the credibility of the students from Omnilock. Some said they had cheated, some said they might have encountered some kind of life-changing treasure to be able to compete with other students from advanced rank D level to absolute rank D level students.

Unfortunately for them, no matter how hard they tried to convince the referee of their rationale, it was to no avail. The competition still went on. On the leaderboard, Omnilock school was quickly rising. From number 1,984 to number 300. This can be said without a doubt to be one of the highest climbing streaks to ever be witnessed! Ah, how powerful! In order for such a feat to be carried out, the students must have won at least more than 500 games! How exciting. News of this growth quickly grew throughout various districts. Even hermit sects sent envoys to watch the competition! It must be known that hermit sects are dedicated to the protection of a district, dynasty, continent or even planets. They are undoubtedly the big men behind the scenes. Almost everything that happens in the 'outside' world is controlled by them. Some control a large percent of the military. Some, the markets. Some, the agricultural produce, and even the educational factions!

The envoys from Omnilock school were filled with pride in their hearts. Fully aware of the hardships these students whom they elected had suffered, they couldn't help but be happy for their students. If not for their motivation, and dedication to be better, I'm afraid the progress of these students would have been stunted a while ago. However, upon noticing the envy from the congregation. The envoys couldn't help but be more attentive to the students of Omnilock in case any of these schools tried to act funny.

After 5 hours, the second round had finally finished. Omnilock school was ranked at number 10. Such a feat that was really domineering. It can be said that these students came in like wolves dressed in lamb wool. Every team they faced lost against them. Even a good number of the participants from the most prestigious schools and families lost in the hands of Omnilock students. This news shocked the foundations of most sects, clans, and even schools. Never in their wildest imaginations did they ever think, or dare to think that people of weak bloodlines and talents could achieve such a feat.

However, this was also good news. To the wise, they had sent money, and even slaves in an attempt to solicit the envoys. To their great disappointment, none of their plans were fruitful. Some lowly elders and even clan leaders came in person with their children offering and making all sorts of promises so that their children could be accepted into the school. But, yet again, they were also turned back. Omnilock school was and will never be a school that can be easily stepped on. They chose the time and place where they will elect students from. No one will ever be allowed to influence or stop the decisions or actions of Omnilock school. Doing so will lead to the wrath of the 4 high judges as the school carries the prestige of the Creator Himself! Ah! How can the 4 high judges sit as they watch the Creator lose face? Even the Universal judges will kill before they live to see such a day come.

"I'm proud to announce that the district competition is now over. Tomorrow will be the final trial. Only the students from the top 20 schools are allowed to compete. As for the rest, go home and meditate on your losses. Maybe, you will learn a thing or two from the students you have faced today. Goodnight everyone, you are all dismissed" The referee and anchor, John Coal announced.
