Eason then observed his own team members. Eason knew his randomly chosen team members very well except. Excluding Eason himself, there were 2 men and 2 women. They were Barrick, Voile, Nianna and Sasha.

Miss Elena looked around and announced,

"All right! Group 4 will be facing Group 11 since they are the only 2 groups that have their own respective Rank-D fighters. Huhuhu. It's been months since the group that faced Myron's group always had to fight with Myron's group handicapped. Finally, there's a change. But still... Myron's Group still won all their battles and the opposing group just dragged out their battles because even unfairness has a limit in front of pure strength and it will probably be the same this time too. I hope Eason's group proves me wrong."

Miss Elena then told about the remaining group matchings and match schedules to the class. Eason's group match was fourth. This was because their own opponent was Group 4. This is because Miss Elena just scheduled their group matches based on group numbers.

Group Battle consists of 5v5 Battle in a terrain inside the school. The school is so big that there are many such terrain grounds for the sake of these group matches.

On both sides, there is an enviroter, a computer for recording parameters on surroundings. As long as a team enters given code on their opponent's enviroter, it will be their win. Codes will be sent to teams through their hand watches. Hand watches are devices put on everyone's hands for daily life usage.

For preparation's sake, every group was given 1 hour to prepare. Group Battle will start based on the schedule made by Miss Elena. Each group battle will be separated by 10 min as the these battles begin. It doesn't matter whether the 1st group battle was over for second battle to begin. In case of any life threatening danger, there are teachers placed separately on each battle ground. It was said that the top grade schools usually had avasci barriers to protect students but not this school. No one knows the reason as to why every school didn't get such avasci barriers.

Anyway, it didn't matter to Eason himself. And so, these battles will also take place in different regions as battle timing schedule of groups may collide if placed in same region.

First Battle was Group 1 Vs Group 7.

Group 7 had Phin in it. In the end, Group 7 did win as Phin was indeed ahead of all other students in their classroom.

2nd and 3rd battles were still on-going.

Soon, the Fourth Battle was also about to begin. Everyone was ready and Miss Elena announced to begin the battle.

On Group 11's side, everyone had already started activating their racial talents. Eason led the team as no one had dared to object him as their leader since he was their only Rank D fighter and had good commanding skills to top it off which he had already proven multiple times before.

During preparation time, the members of the group sparred against each other and got a good team understanding among themselves. They also came up with few strategies against Group 4 for their upcoming group battle.

"You all should climb up the trees and wait for group 4 according to Voile's strategy. The main goal is to stall for time. I will run straight ahead against Group 4's enviroter. This is likely not just a group battle but more like a battle of wits between me and Myron. I can only tell you to hang on as much as possible."

Eason had already started running ahead before he even finished speaking but no one complained as everyone knew that time was precious. So, everyone followed Eason's decisions as per their pre-planned plan.

Eason ran ahead and he climbed up a tree and then started jumping around trees while producing as little noise as possible. Of course, he didn't know where Group 4's enviroter was and thus he had to find it. On the other hand, Myron decided to stand guard in front of the enviroter while others went on offensive to find Group 11's enviroter.

The reason as to why both group's strategies are very complementary to each other? It's quite simple. Both groups knew that Eason definitely has the ability to finish entering code faster while avoiding fighters below his rank with his agility based body.

Fighters geneticically improve their own bodies through racial talent activation via nerves but these genetic modifications can be of different kinds depending on fighter. Here, Eason's body is agility based. Thus, Eason's body genetically improves while focusing on agility attribute of his body.

Since Myron's body is resilience based, he decided to stand guard waiting for Eason. Even if Eason didn't come, Myron can at least still take down others easily.

It took a while but Group 4 eventually found Group 11's enviroter. Group 11 hid very well to avoid Group 4 because Voile was an expert at this. Other group members got advices from Voile and managed to hide very well. Just before Group 4 could rejoice at having found Group 11's enviroter, Group 11 started their offense on Group 4 out of nowhere while making sure that Group 4 gets nowhere near their enviroter.

Meanwhile, Eason also found Myron along with Group 4's enviroter besides him. Eason then picked up some stones and ran ahead. He then threw the stones. But Myron blocked them all with his punches while blocking Eason from viewing enviroter. Eason grinned as had no choice but to initiate the battle with Myron and so he did.

He then slashed both his daggers while twisting his body at Myron. Myron then pulled out his sword from behind blocked them. He then slashed his sword towards Eason. Eason dodged the sword slash. Both of them then released their offensives to and fro. Eventually Eason started throwing wood splinters which he had picked up while trying to find Group 4's enviroter in a pre-determined direction as if he had already planned to do so before he entered Myron's range.

This was nothing like the battle which had happened before between Eason and Myron. This time, Myron had become defensive while Eason became offensive. Eason even managed to successfully throw in some of the wood splinters at the keys of key board just like he wanted to.

The reason? It's simple. If given an opportunity, Eason could throw stones accurately at Enviroter's keyboard without Myron blocking them. This is all because of his racial talent. This is also the main reason why Eason allowed his team to start the offensive on the other side's battle to keep opposing fighters away from their Enviroter.

Meanwhile somewhere else, a heated 4 Versus 4 group battle was on-going.

3 members of Group 11 were superior to corresponding 3 members of Group 4. Group 11's 3 members supported their other member as they refused to move too far away from their enviroter. If they did so, Group 4 will definitely try to use the opportunity to have one of their members who was superior to Group 11's 4th member to input the code into Group 11's enviroter.

Nonetheless, Group 4's members managed to enter the codes bit by bit. Thus, Group 11 decided to focus on specific members of Group 4 to have others lead in inputting code and later on they will shift targets to allow the ones who lagged behind in Group 4 the opportunity to input code. In this way, Group 11 would be able to buy more time for Eason. Even though Group 11 is superior in strength but they were in a defensive stance. Not only that but due to Gremorian racial talent, everyone is actually very similar when it comes to combat practice.

As the battle continued on, 20 minutes passed. Currently both sides were closely tied to each other with their progress.

Eventually Eason managed to deal a heavy blow directly towards Myron. Myron let out a grunt. Eason then managed to input code yet again but to successfully input entire code, Eason needed to input one more character.

Similarly somewhere else, one of the group 4's members had only one input remaining to be inputted. Other group 4 members are also not behind when it comes to number of characters inputted.

All members of a group can communicate with each other via hand watches. So, everyone knew about the current flow of battle. Both sides knew that their battle was about to end. So, everyone became restless, nervous and excited. Multiple kinds of emotions was expressed through everyone's body language.

But everyone eventually calmed down their emotions with the help of their racial talent.... and decided to take action.

Eason started to make a move... and this time he fearlessly moved towards Myron despite knowing he will lose in a head-on battle. The same thing occurred on other battle field as 3 members of Group 11 protected their 4th member with their bodies to help their 4th member get in that final input.

Eason slashed with his daggers towards Myron. Myron dodged them and counter attacked with his sword. Eason took the attack head-on as it slashed narrowly while he was dodging and he then threw wood pieces towards Myron. Myron managed to punch which resulted in wind waves that managed to block wood pieces.

But Eason didn't relent as he slashed and threw wood pieces at enviroter. Whenever Myron tried to defend, Eason moved in accordance with Myron's moves as if he predicted them.

Eventually under such dominating prowess, Eason managed to kick Myron away. Before Myron could get back completely due to his heavily damaged body, Eason managed to input final character of the code segment into enviroter.

Soon, an alarm was rang followed by an announcement which announced,

"Group 11 beats Group 4"

Myron managed to stand up partially but he fell down as soon as he heard the announcement because he was seriously hurt. Eason helped him stand up and Eason then said towards Myron,

"I guess... we're even then."

"Hahaha! But you know that this won't happen in a 1v1 battle unless you truly became stronger than me."

Eason grinned.

"I know. But a win is a win."

"You're right. Congratulations!", Myron laughed lightly as he congratulated Eason.

"Thanks"

Soon, every participant in this group battle gathered around in their original group spot as this was the usual routine.

Eason eventually met his four groupmates.

"You guys did a very good job as meat shields. Or else, it would've been impossible us to win this."

The surroundings around Eason suddenly got cold and his group mates glared at him. Eason shrugged his shoulders.

He then softly let out a laugh after observing expressive responses of his group members. Eventually more group battles got over and it was soon announced that the group competition was over.

Everyone were told to go to their own respective lecturers for combat lessons that we were respectively arranged to.

Eason's lecturer was a professor who taught dagger combat. Eason met him in their dagger combat hall and he then sparred with others like him who also followed him. They were all then given tasks/homeworks by professor personally for next week.

Soon, the military training day was over. Eason also soon saw his four friends. He saw them back then after group battles and didn't manage to communicate much due to Miss Elena's presence.

Zack then initiated their own group discussion.

"Eason, you've got to treat us for ranking up."

"Hahaha! I don't mind having a bit of fun... but everyone shares the money."

"No fair... you're always like this, stingy bastard."

Everyone then laughed together. Ban then said,

"Decide the place fast so that we can have more time to have fun."

Zack says,

"Red Street"

Others ignored him.

Eason frowned,

"I feel like... we should go to the Red Street. I don't know why but I feel like this is probably the last day I could have fun. And yeah, I have always wanted to have some fun at Red Street."

"Huh? What do you mean?", asked Zack

"Hah. What kind of nonsense are you talking about? How could this be your last day? Also, just admit it. You just wanted to go to Red Street, right?", Ban frowned and rebutted angrily.

"Calm down Ban. Eason wasn't being serious.", said Phin

Phin then continued,

"If that's what you feel like... then sure. I also have been curious about Red Street."

Phin felt that Eason wouldn't say this without a reason and he was pretty sure that everyone also felt the same through their intuitions.

"Sorry Ban. Anyway, I just feel like I need to have as much fun as I can today and Red Street is definitely a place I needed to experience as a man."

Zack then happily proclaimed,

"All right! Then, everyone heard him! Let's go. I know a good place. Regarding our entry... leave it to me. Also Ban, it's all on me if you lack money. Same goes for you Phin."

Ferb, Eason and Zack had plenty of money themselves.

Ferb managed to invent a electrical product. The result from which he petitioned to a company was that he got a lot of money. Of course, most of it was controlled by his parents yet Ferb managed to exhort some of it from his mom.

Zack's dad was a rich businessman. He put Zack in school so as to teach him to not waste the money.

As for Eason, his Sister was an avasci user. The only reason he came to this school was because his house was nearby and this place was also his last memory of his parents.

Zack then announced excitedly,

"LET'S GO!!!"

But someone suddenly intervened. A familiar sound was heard by the group of friends.

"Hey!"

Everyone looked over. They all saw a very beautiful and a very cheerful looking girl whom they were all very familiar with.
