Vivian activated a spell.

[Wind Arrow].

Woooh.

A 15-inch long arrow made out of a green aura burst out of her palm.

"KYAAAH!!!"

Kara tried to block Vivian's [Wind Arrow] with her shield and it easily shot through the metal like was made out of paper and then also shot through her body, leaving a hole.

Everyone turned their head and looked at Vivian and Kara, particularly Kara who was kneeling down on one knee and bloody with a hole on her shield and chest and was on the verge of either passing out or dying.

Vivian rushed to her in a blur and cast another spell.

[Heal].

A faint yellow light enveloped Kara's body and her wound was healed.

Kara coughed out the remaining blood on her throat and spat.

She glanced at the hole on the shield and on her blood-stained shirt before raising her head and looking at Vivian.

Her eyes were filled with horror.

"Sister Kara, I told you to evade my spells, not block it," Vivian said with a worried and concerned look on her face.

"Sister Platoon Leader Vivian!" said Gars.

Oh fuck…

Vivian immediately turned around to look for him.

When she saw that he wasn't walking towards her, she immediately rushed towards him and stood in attention.

"Brother High Lieutenant!"

Gars turned to Samantha.

"You, you will spar with Crusader Kara."

He turned to Uliah.

"And you, Crusader Uliah, you spar with Sister Platoon Leader Vivian."

Both Uliah and Samantha stood in attention.

"Yes, Brother High Lieutenant!"

Samantha went over to Kara, while Vivian went over to Uliah.

Uliah's lips curled up into a smile.

"Sister Platoon Leader, it looks like you and I were meant to be sparring partners after all!"

Uliah was holding a sword and mace, while Vivian was holding a sword.

"Yeah, looks like it. So, who goes --" before Vivian could finish her sentence, Uliah already burst out in a charge.

Vivian immediately focused and the world began to move slowly through her eyes.

This girl…

So brash…

I'm human, you know…!

Oh…?

Vivian noticed that when Uliah got closer, she suddenly moved a bit faster.

So she was faking her speed…?

Unfortunately for her, Vivian's stats were too high.

Hmm…

How am I going to deal with this…?

I used [Wind Arrow] earlier it was the less damaging range attack…

At the moment, Vivian was under the identity that she had Light, Lightning, Wind and Poison Affinities. She had no intention of using [Lightning Arrow] and accidentally killing one of her classmates in public because it would only damage her reputation.

Vivian turned to check on Gars.

He smiled at her, causing her eyes to turn wide and subconsciously take a step back.

What…?!

She was currently looking at the world in "slow-mo mode" so she wasn't expecting Gars to respond on time.

Vivian returned her attention to Uliah.

I don't want him to bully me…!

Uliah finally entered Vivian's attack range and Vivian activated a spell.

[Poison Strike].

A green water-like aura appeared on her right foot and she kicked Uliah's face without using her full Physical Force.

Pa-Psssh!

"AHHH!!!"

Thud!

A green mist exploded and Uliah was sent flying away before landing on the floor. She wasn't able to get up because she was immobilized by the effect of [Poison Strike].

Vivian didn't dare to look at Gars even though she could feel his gaze burning at the side of her head.

She ran over to Uliah and cast a spell.

[Heal].

A faint yellow light enveloped Kara's body.

"Sister, I'm very sorry! Are you okay?!" Vivian asked with a worried and concerned look on her face.

"I'm okay… But I can't move…" said Uliah.

"Please wait for 30 seconds! The [Poison Strike]'s effect will disappear after that!"

"You don't have to continue shouting…"

"Sister Platoon Leader Vivian!" said Gars.

Shit…!

Vivian slowly turned around and went over to him.

"Brother High Lieutenant!"

"It seems you've won again with one hit."

"It was only a lucky strike, Brother High Lieutenant!"

"Right…" he said and smiled before looking away. "Crusader Zean!"

Zean, who was fighting Crew, stopped and looked at Gars before heading over to him.

"Brother High Lieutenant!"

"You're going to spar with Sister Platoon Leader Vivian."

"Yes, Brother High Lieutenant!"

He turned to Vivian.

Zean was holding a long sword, while Vivian was holding a sword.

"Sister Platoon Leader."

"So who goes first?"

"Ladies first."

Vooom!

Vivian burst into a charge.

Zean tried to raise his sword but it was already too late.

Vivian had a green water-like aura on her hand and was a few inches away from touching him. 

Psssh!

Clang.

Thud.

A green mist exploded. Zean dropped his weapon and fell to his knees.

Vivian didn't bother healing him because she only tapped his hand.

But just to be sure, Vivian moved a couple of steps away.

"Sister Platoon Leader Vivian!" said Gars.

Vivian went over to him and stood in attention.

"Brother High Lieutenant!"

"It seems you've won again. Or are you still going to tell me it was a lucky strike?"

"Uh…" Vivian didn't know what to say so she just scratched the side of her face.

Gars looked away and searched for another opponent.

"Crusader Sally and Crusader Diane!"

Ever since Zean and Vivian's battle, everyone already stopped fighting and decided to watch.

Sally and Diane went over to Gars.

"Brother High Lieutenant!" said the 2 women.

"The both of you are going to team up and fight Sister Platoon Leader Vivian."

"Yes, Brother High Lieutenant!" they said before turning to Vivian.

Sally was holding a spear, while Diane was holding an axe and shield.

"Sisters, please go easy on me," Vivian said with an apologetic smile.

The 2 women looked at each other, their eyes communicating with each other before returning their gaze to Vivian.

"We will try our best, Sister Platoon Leader!" said the women.

Vooom!

Diane charged while Sally activated a spell.

But as they were in the middle of their attack, Vivian already moved.

Psssh!

Vivian grabbed Diane's wrist with [Poison Strike], causing a green mist to explode.

Still holding her wrist, Vivian moved a bit slower because she didn't want to rip Diane's arm away as she turned around and tossed her towards Sally.

Bam!

"AHHH!"

"AHHH!"

The 2 women collided together and they both cried out in pain before crashing to the floor.

Thud!

Thud!

Sorry, but I don't have unlimited mana…!

Vivian's total mana points was only 276 points and she already used 6 spells.

"Looks like you've won again, Sister Platoon Leader Vivian!" said Gars.

Vivian was about to run to him but stopped when he made a command signal to stop.

"Crusader Turd, Crusader Radford and Crusader Crew!"

All 3 men rushed over to Gars and stood in attention.

"Brother High Lieutenant!" the 3 men greeted.

"The 3 of you are going to team up and fight her."

"Yes, Brother High Lieutenant!"

Given that they had already seen how Vivian easily took down her opponents with one hit, they all wore serious expressions when they turned to her.

Turd was holding 2 daggers, Radford wore one claw on his right hand, and Crew was holding a mace and shield.

"She must be out of mana by now! But just in case, don't stay in one place and keep moving!" said Turd.

"I'll distract her!" Radford said and activated a spell and a skill.

[Halo].

[Power Leg].

A golden halo appeared on his back and the force of the [Power Leg] on his right foot made a small crack of webs on the floor before propelling him towards Vivian.

Turd cursed when he saw Radford's [Halo] but still threw one of his daggers at Vivian with [Power Throw] while running.

Crew charged at Vivian with his shield in front of him.

Vivian was already focused so she was seeing the world in slow motion.

Okay…

There's 3 opponents…

How am I going to deal with this…?

She rushed over the dagger infused with [Power Throw] and grabbed it.

She felt a vibrating sensation that numbed her hand and felt like her skin was being scratched with a cheese grater.

In the end, she finally got hold of it and threw it back at Turd. Her Physical Force was greater, so once she threw it, it was already moving toward Turd despite being in slow-mo mode.

She cast [Poison strike].

Given that she was still in slow-mo mode, it took a while before the green water-like aura appeared on her right hand as she went over to Radford.

By the time the green water-like aura was finally complete, the dagger she threw already struck Turd and she grabbed Radford on the wrist.

Psssh!

A green mist exploded.

Still holding Radford's wrist, she threw him towards Crew.

In Crew's eyes, although Vivian appeared blurry, he could still identify some things. So the moment he saw something or someone blurry coming his way, he immediately blocked it with a skill.

[Power Shield].

"ARGHHH!"

Radford groaned in pain when his body slammed against Crew's [Power Shield] and felt like his shirt and skin were being torn to shreds.

Tch!

Vivian clicked her tongue and rushed to Crew.

Crew was still in the process of swatting Radford away with [Power Shield] when Vivian appeared in front of him and reached out for his jaw a bit.

Tok!

She didn't dare to use the full force of her Physical Force when she knocked his jaw, just enough to rattle it and send a shock to his brain, causing it to override and shut down.

When the speed of the world through Vivian's eyes went back to normal, all 3 men were down.

Turd had a dagger stuck on his broken shoulder -- not only did the dagger stab his shoulder, but it also dislocated it due to the force it was thrown, causing him to be knocked away before hitting the ground.

Radford was still immobilized from [Poison Strike]. And he was on his back with his shirt and skin ripped to shreds from Crew's [Power Shield].

And as for Crew, he was knocked out cold.

All of the recruits were looking at the scene with their mouths left open.

Gars went over to Radford.

"YOU STUPID IDIOT!"

Pah.

He kicked him on the rib.

"Ugh…" Radford groaned weakly.

"WHO TOLD YOU YOU CAN USE [HALO]?!"

The Class Magic spell [Halo] had 2 effects: Passive and Active. 

The passive effect boosts the owner's mana recovery. Meanwhile, the active effect, once activated, had a charm-like effect. 

Speaking of its active effect, it wasn't entirely a mind-controlling spell. Instead, it makes the owner of the spell appear more trustworthy and it only works if the owner's Magic Force is higher compared to the target or targets. However, assuming that the owner's Magic Force was higher, combine it with the right words and actions, it can be close to a mind-controlling spell.

Because of that, most people, especially those who are aware of its effect, would view it as a provocation.

Pah!

"UGH!"

Gars kicked Radford again.

But this time it was a little bit stronger.

"DO YOU WANT TO LOSE YOUR LICENSE AS A PRIEST?!"

Everyone was quiet.

Even those who wanted to help didn't dare to lift a finger.

If helping Radford meant they would lose their license as a Priest, they would rather turn a blind eye. After all, everyone here had their own dreams and aspirations, and they were also aware of the delicate issues concerning the active skill of [Halo], not to mention it was also mentioned during the orientation that one of the rules in this camp is not to use it.
