Celestial Bloodline

Chapter 22: Goblin Cave

Pausing slightly, the professor\'s voice turned serious,

"And if you can cooperate, that also means you can also steal each other kills. After all, the person who gains the most points will gain the highest ranking. That\'s why not only from the monsters but you also have to watch out for the person next to you."

After completing his statement the professor smirked while looking at the students who were now wary of each other. Because after hearing the professor almost everyone vigilantly stepped away from the person near them.

There were also some students who showed worried expressions after knowing they had to stay in the dungeon for two days because no one was prepared for this. Everyone thought they would have a one-on-one battle for the Ranking assessment.

"Enough now! Be prepared. I am teleporting you all inside the dungeon."

Finished with what he wanted to say, Professor Liam lifted his right hand and the ground beneath the students shook slightly before teleporting them all inside the dungeon.

.....

Kyle felt the world around him twist and change, but because he had gone through this sensation a few times before he easily adjusted to it. Also unlike last time he didn\'t throw up.

Looking around he found himself inside a dark and damp cave that spanned almost hundreds of kilometers in diameter. Many other students were appearing one after another at the place he was standing.

But the moment they appeared they all scattered around in search of monsters because everyone was eager to earn as many points as possible.

As cold air brushed against his skin, Kyle also sprinted forward excitedly. He knew because of those four monsters he won\'t be able to get the top ranks but still, he inwardly decided to get a high ranking in class.

Just after a few minutes of running, like tsunami green creatures of short stature with long hooked noses, bat-like ears, and hideous smiles appeared from every corner of the cave.

-SWOOSH! -SWOOSH!

"What\'s that?"

"Goblins?"

"Kekekeke!"

"Kekekee!"

The Goblins loud laughter resounded in the cave, sending shivers running down everyone\'s spine.

Surprised by the unexpected situation, the students at the front stopped running and huddled up together before attacking the goblins.

With their backs against each other, all the students raised their specific weapons and attacked the nearest goblin.

-Clank! -Clank! -Clank!

"Attack!"

"Kill the Goblins!"

A lot of groups were formed, because of the large number of goblins. But amidst all the group a single group was killing the most goblins, in the front of the group Alec stood with his sword unsheathed. He killed whenever a goblin appeared in his sight using an elegant sword style.

-SLASH! -SlASH!

["Sword strike: Swirling vortex"]

As he used one of his powerful sword styles, a big vortex appeared at the tip of his sword, killing more than five Goblins in a single attack.

Seeing Alec going all out Carcel also didn\'t hold back and used one of his powerful attacks,

["Spear strike: Rain of thousand spears"]

Like a bolt of lightning, he thrust his spear forward, and more than thousands of mirages appeared behind his spear killing almost every goblin near him.

Lara and Mia both were standing behind them. Sending arrows and casting powerful attacks on the goblins.

When the students saw their teamwork and the number of goblins they were killing they were awestruck with shock. But this increased their determination to do better.

Goblins were considered the most common of monsters, but with their excellent sense of smell, hearing, and tendency to hunt in groups they were still dangerous creatures.

On the other hand, Kyle met up with Nine while running, both of them formed a group and were fighting at the opposite end of the cave. But when Kyle saw Alec and Carcel fighting style, there was only one this on his mind,

\'I need a sword Art.\' He indeed had a sword but he never learned proper fighting Art, that\'s why Kyle decided to get a perfect sword Art for himself after the Ranking assessment.

Nevertheless, because his rank was already (+F) the (F)-Rank goblins were nothing in front of him. He randomly slashed his sword without any pattern on the defenseless goblins while sending huge fireballs in between.

His mana was already (+F) so he was now able to form more than 10 fireballs before exhausting his mana. If somehow any goblins still passed his defense line he would punch and kick them without mercy, sending them flying.

Nine who was fighting alongside Kyle was having a little difficulty but when he saw Kyle\'s wild fighting style he was once again shocked, because even though Kyle was throwing fireballs here and there without a specific target but for some reason his attack would always land on a goblin.

He wasn\'t sure if Kyle was pretending to be inexperienced or if it was dumb luck.
