My Space-Time System

'Guess there was no need to disable the school's space detection array...' Prince Bryon thought with a proud smile on his face.

No one, not even principal Lovren knew that prince Bryon had used his supreme control over the school's core as the councilman in charge of the east zone of the Synder empire to shutdown detection of foreign interference (in this case the space element) to give Blake a fair fight and to assess both of them.

But surprisingly, Blake had beaten the most likely to succeed member of the royal family, Luciano without the need for a third element.

…

After making sure that Luciano had been healed from both external and internal injuries, the healer let him return to Blake.

"Sorry man…" Blake immediately apologized when he saw Luciano.

"You don't have to apologize, it was a match and things like these happen." Luciano stopped him.

'Mhen! I am getting too battle frenzy...' Blake couldn't help but worry.

"Why didn't you surrender when you were hit by the first lightning bolt?" Brian asked. He didn't understand why Luciano had to go through all that when he could have surrendered.

"Firstly, things were too sudden. Second, I don't surrender halfway. If I decide to fight, I fight to the end and if I don't want to fight I don't start only to end halfway." Luciano replied.

'Pheew… For a moment I thought it was because I told him not to surrender.' Blake let out a sigh of relief.

[Or maybe that is what he wants them to know…]

"The method by which the points would be awarded is very easy…"

Blake ignored that line of thought and focused his attention on Instructor Zirrack who was making an announcement.

"Those that made it into the 6th round will get 10000 points while the winner gets a bonus of 2k points. For those that made it into the 5th round 9000 points will be the starting point and the farther away you are from the top of the round determines the number of 2 hundred that will be deducted."

For Castiel who was at the top of the 5th round, he would get 9000 points while Beyoni the 4th position would get 8800 points. The scoring system was used for the other rounds, the difference was that their starting points were reduced by a thousand and when it got to those in the 3rd round only a hundred points were deducted.

"Why do I have the feeling that this scoring system was picked after a single thought and is it only me that feels Instructor Zirrack is itching to leave?" Castiel asked.

"Maybe he had had a long day and wants to get some rest." All of them turned towards Blake with a 'seriously?' expression on their faces.

"Just kidding, that beast doesn't get tired. That is just what I want to do…" Blake's description of instructor Zirrack as a tireless beast was accurate to the point causing them to burst into laughter.

'Finally, I can complete the last preparation needed for my adventure when the school closes.' Immediately he was done with the announcement which marked the end of the competition Instructor Zirrack didn't waste even a second more in the training grounds before warping to out to collect his long-awaited price.

…

The next day a lot of people woke up feeling drained and tired. Although the healers made sure that every student was healed after the match, the healing spell only worked on physical and internal injuries and not psychological ones.

Many were tired but the most predominant feeling most people had was fear.

After the knockout exam, most of them had even skipped dinner and went straight to sleep because of the stress, but the problem was that they had 2 exams the following day.

Some didn't remember, while those that did were unable to prepare for anything.

'The space and time inheritance is godly!' A broad smile was on Blake's face as he saw people who if not for their clean clothes he would have mistaken for zombies.

[I know, this is the third time you are saying it.] The system snorted. Just some months ago Blake had been calling the space element useless, but ever since he advanced to the champion realm he could only sing praises about it.

'I know that everyone has their secrets, but how is he not drained like the rest?' Blake couldn't help but ask the system when he saw Luciano brimming with energy.

The passive of the space element, returned Blake to his peak condition both mentally and physically, all he needed was just time, but seeing Luciano's perfect condition made him ask a lot of questions.

[There are many ways for someone to regain himself both mentally and physically, but when some factors are put into play and if an elimination is carried out. It can be zeroed down to pills.]

"How do you guys do it?!" When the four of them met before the basic magic exam couldn't believe his eyes.

"Do what?" Both Blake and Luciano asked in unison.

"…" Brian couldn't help but face-palmed.

"How do you guys look like people coming back from a vacation?"

"Oh, that…" Blake sheepishly smiled as he tried to cook up a lie, but before he could tell a lousy lie, professor Gibson entered the class through a warp gate.

"Calm down, I can already see the fear in your eyes…" Professor Gibson chuckled as he saw their reactions.

"The school had decided that Instructor Zirrack had gone too far, so the school had asked us to go easy with the last exams." Professor Gibson's words gave them a glimpse of hope.

"Now for those afraid that it would be a theory-based exam you have nothing to fear. My exam is simple, just cast all the spells we have treated so far and you will pass.

Easy right?" Professor Gibson said with a smirk as some of the students couldn't believe their ears.
