Although the second floor was smaller than the first floor, it was still larger than the size of two football grounds joined together.
But what caused him to exclaim was that this floor was filled with disciples. Disciples were standing in front of the room in a disorderly manner, waiting for the doors to open.
âMm?â Max raised his eyebrows. Although the Elder had already told him that many disciples were already waiting for their turn, he didnât expect the situation to be like this.
âIt seems I canât train here today.â Max shook his head and turned around to walk out.
Given the situation, there were only two ways through which he could enter the room. One was that other disciples allowed him to, which was obviously unrealistic.
The other one was to fight and defeat other disciples and then enter. However, this also wasnât realistic since disciples werenât allowed fight in the academy.
Itâs opening!â
Just as Max turned around, there was a commotion as doors to one of the rooms showed signs of opening.
âHm?â Max stopped and looked at the disciples in front of the room. Watching their expressions, he knew everyone wanted to enter the training room. Therefore, he became curious to see what they would do to enter.
âHahaha⊠Itâs finally my turn to enter.â A bulky disciple flexed his thick muscles and cracked his knuckles as he laughed arrogantly.
âTch, what an arrogant bastard! Donât you see this young master here? Iâll be the one to enter. You trash!â Another disciple standing near the door said disdainfully.
ââŠâ
Most of the disciples started arguing as they all wanted to enter the room.
Max stood there silently and watched them with interest. After a few moments, the formation on the door dimmed, and the door slowly opened.
Boom!
Suddenly a disciple who was sent flying and the bulky disciple charged towards the door while swinging his thick hands wildly. All the disciples standing in his way were hit and sent flying.
He wasnât the only one; other disciples also started to fight their way toward the entrance of the room.
Max was surprised to see this and looked toward the disciplinary hall disciples and the guards standing at the entrance of the second floor.
His surprise grew when he saw that disciplinary hall disciples and the guards were watching all this with leisurely attitudes. It didnât seem that they were going to interfere.
Bang!
Suddenly, a female disciple was thrown in front of him.
âCoughâŠ! CoughâŠ! These brutes are too strong.â She coughed and wiped some blood from the corner of her lips.
Max stepped forward and offered his hand like a gentleman to help her stand up.
Slap!
The female disciple slapped his hand away and looked at him angrily. However, seeing him, her eyes twinkled, and she calmed down.
She then gracefully stood up and said, âIâm sorry for my rude behavior just now. I hope you donât mind it.â
Max was amused by this sudden change and couldnât help but feel a bit proud of his good looks, which were fatal to most women.
He waved his hand. âItâs okay.â And then asked, âCan you tell me why they are fighting? Isnât fighting prohibited on the academy grounds?â
âOh, didnât the Elder on the first floor tell you?â The girl said and then immediately smiled and stepped closer to him.
âNo, she didnât. What is it?â Max asked.
âSince the first floor isnât temporarily usable and the second floor doesnât have enough rooms for so many disciples to use, the academy allowed us to fight for the chance to enter the rooms. However, we canât use our mana or kill someone.â She explained.
After hearing this, he understood, and his eyes lit up. âThanks for telling me.â
Shua!
âItâs okay. Can you me yourââ The girl smiled and was about to ask something when Max suddenly moved toward the fight at full speed.
The girl was stunned. She hurriedly shouted, âDonât go. These strength-based mages will easily throw you out.â
Because they couldnât use any spells to fight, only those with high physical strength had the advantage.
Although Max had a good physique, he didnât seem like a strength-based mage. Thatâs why she tried to stop him.
However, he had already charged toward the crowd.
Seeing his speed, she snickered in dissatisfaction. âTch, what if you have high agility? You canât utilize it in such a crowded place.â
However, her expression became incredulous the next moment, and she exclaimed, âWhat!â
âŠ
After seeing so many disciples crowding in front of the rooms, Max knew that he would have to wait a lot of time for his turn and could only train for a few hours, which wasnât worth it, and he wanted to go somewhere else.
However, he became excited after hearing that they could use their strength to enter the rooms.
His physical strength was among the best if everyone didnât use their mana to enhance it. So, the current situation was quite advantageous to him.
More than a hundred disciples were trying to get in, and the most powerful ones were fighting near the door.
Closest to the door was the bulky man who was only one meter away. Moreover, he was suppressing other disciples near him. It was only a matter of time before he entered.
Bang!
Seeing this, Max stomped the ground and jumped high in the air. He then directly landed near the bulky man.
âFuck off!â The bulky man roared and punched towards him.
Max was stunned by the bulky manâs reaction speed. He hadnât even properly stabilized yet, and he was already attacked.
Others who were trying to stop the bulky man from entering were a bit happy to see Max arrive but seeing that he was already attacked, they lost hope since no normal disciple would be able to dodge it.
Swoosh!
Max didnât bother to stabilize his footing, twisted his body out of the punchâs trajectory, and successfully dodged it.
The bulky man was surprised when he failed to hit Max. However, he didnât have time to focus solely on him as he had to fight three other disciples.
The other three were also surprised and started attacking with more enthusiasm.
On the other hand, Max was able to stabilize himself after successfully dodging the strike.
He then moved toward the bulky man and punched toward his chest.
The bulky man threw the other three off and punched at Max with his full strength as his eyes glinted cruelly.
âDonâtââ The three tried to warn Max, but it was already too late as both fists were about to crash into one another.
âŠ
âFuck is this guy retard? Didnât he see that even those three geniuses were doing their best not to clash with him head-on?â
âI bet hundred Mana stones that he wonât be able to use his hand for at least three months after being hit by that guyâs punch.â
âHundred? I bet five hundred that his bones will break into at least half a dozen pieces.â
ââŠâ
Seeing Maxâs âboldâ actions, the spectators jeered and started betting Mana stones on how bad Maxâs situation would be.
They all had witnessed how frightening the bulky manâs strength was.
More than a dozen disciples had their bones broken when hit by his punches; some of them were even strength-based mages themselves.
BANG!!
While everyone was mocking how bad Maxâs choice to clash head-on was, the bulky manâs fists collided with Maxâs, and a loud bang resounded on the second floor.
After that, everyone could see two figures retreat a few steps back. Seeing this, everyone was silent and had astonished expressions.
Finally, after a few moments, everyone broke out in exclamations.
âWhat? That bulky guy was pushed back?â
âTch, I didnât expect this pretty guy to be a strength-type mage too.â
âWhere is that guy who bet Mana stonesâŠ.â
ââŠâ
Near the entranceâŠ
The bulky man was incredulous as he stared at Max and said, âI didnât expect you to be so strong.â
Then suddenly, his voice became cold, and he continued grimly, âHowever, Letâs see if you can endure more of my punches.â
Saying this, he once again brandished his fist and ran toward Max. On the other hand, Max was also surprised.
Although it looked like they both were equal in strength, it wasnât true because Maxâs knuckles were bleeding right now, and he guessed that if his strength were even a bit lower than fifty points, his bones would have snapped as the spectators expected.
The other three disciplesâ eyes twinkled upon seeing the bulky man focusing on Max, and they simultaneously dashed toward the room.
âHehe, sorry, Iâm busy right now. Weâll see this sometime later.â Max laughed and ran toward the door.
Because he was very close to the gate and No one was blocking his way, before the bulky man could react, or the three disciples took a few steps, he had entered the room.
Weng~
Right after he entered the room, the formation on the door lit up, and the door was slammed shut.
The bulky man finally reacted and cursed, âFuck!â
The other three also had grim expressions. They hadnât expected their hard work to benefit someone else.
