Chapter 228 228- Talented Duo

Hearing that Kaya was going to show them how to do it made the Ascenders more excited as they started whispering and talking amongst themselves. Everyone wanted to see what their beautiful teacher was actually capable of. After all, as far they were concerned, Kaya was a n.o.body, an unknown person they never heard of before.

After all, from Kaya's presence alone, she made them feel like they were mere ants and that feeling was something they never experienced before in their lives.

Positioning herself in front of one of the dolls, Kaya gave the group a strong look that made them go completely silent. Kai found it truly impressive how fast she was able to take control of the cla.s.s.

Not only did she make them fear her but she also planted a seed of respect in their hearts toward her. That was something that even Kai wasn't sure if he could do as he had never been a leader before.

He could only instill fear into people, not respect.

"Watch carefully. I won't repeat it." Saying those words, Kaya took a deep breath before she clenched her fist and pulled it back. A few seconds pa.s.sed as everyone watched how Kaya's Origin channeled to her fist slowly and quite sluggishly.

Obviously, Kaya's control over Origin was astronomically better than this but she made it look hard just so that they would think that she was better than them, but not too good at it either considering the short period of time she had to learn.

After coating her fist with Origin, she delivered a swift blow to the doll's stomach. With a loud bang, the doll arched back as it was pushed away before it fell to the ground a few meters away.

"Woah!" Loud cheers erupted at the show of power and started clapping.

However, Kaya ignored their cheers and approached the doll before she picked it up. On the doll's forehead, the screen started changing as it showed numbers increasing.

It went from 0 to 100 quickly before it moved to 200 as fast. The increase was fast as it continued rising till it slowed down around the 900s and completely halted at 923.

"923? Not bad I guess." She murmured audibly enough for the students to hear her.

"d.a.m.n! That's so cool!"

"Yeah! She made the doll fly! How is that even possible?!"

Numerous impressed voices erupted. They all never expected to see such a show of power. After all, even amongst the best feats of Origin they had seen in the past few weeks, nothing came close to this.

That further a.s.sured them that Kaya was truly a capable teacher.

"Now, each one of you, get in front of a doll." She clapped her hands, catching their attention again and instructing them on what to do.

Quickly, everyone scurried around and took one doll with great eagerness.

"Each one of you will have to at least exceed 500 to be allowed to leave this cla.s.s. If you don't, you're staying here till you do."

Students didn't know how hard it was to get 500 but considering the fact that punching this heavy doll meters away only counted 923, it was certainly not going to be easy.

But, they still wanted to try. So, at Kaya's sign, everyone started channeling their Origin and how they learned. Most of them took at least 30 seconds to acc.u.mulate enough energy while others even reached the minute mark before they actually launched a punch.

The sound of fists. .h.i.tting the tough dolls echoed in the arena. However, among all the Ascenders, not even a single doll was pushed away. h.e.l.l, not even a single doll was moved out of its position at all.

As for the numbers that appeared, they ranged from 200 to 400 at most. The students were shocked.

"What the h.e.l.l?! That was my best punch!"

"Is this doll broken? I'm sure I used enough strength to punch a hole through a brick wall."

Sounds of confusion echoed in the vast arena.

"Did you all expect that you will get it on the first try?! Stop dreaming and get back to work! You will only learn how to punch with Origin when you try again and again till your fists bleed!" Kaya's harsh words woke the students out of their thoughts and made them realize how naive they thought.

If Kaya had told them that they had to achieve 500 points, how could it be easy?

So, in a matter of seconds, the students were back at it, channeling their Origin and punching with all their strength. Grunts of pain and determination filled the place.

Amidst this chaos, Kai stood silently as he examined the doll with his eyes as if he were trying to understand how it worked. However, in reality, he was simply thinking of how to do this. If he used his real strength, he would probably be able to get 500 by simply pushing the doll with his pinky but he obviously can't do that.

'I need to hurry up so getting high scores is a must. But, I can't be too obvious about it.' He thought to himself as he glanced to the side where Aria was. She seemed to have the same thought process as he was.

Without even talking, the two decided on what to do before they started channeling Origin. Then, Kai punched forward, his fist connecting swiftly with the doll's chest. That was the weakest punch he could do.

The doll arched back a little before it returned to its position as the counter rose up. A few seconds later, his result appeared.

"456?" He murmured to himself.

The number was certainly high but it didn't break the 500 mark which was a good thing. On the other hand, Aria got 450 which was very close to Kai.

Some students noticed that and they immediately voiced out their shock.

"Oh, these two got over 450! Look, guys!"

The information quickly spread across the whole arena as all the students peeked to see whether it was true or not. When they saw it, their shock increased.

"How did they do it?!"

"Beat me. These two must be quite talented!"

"Miss Calia is amazing! Even though she can't see, she still could do this!"

Meanwhile, Kai and Aria simply looked around with awkward smiles.

"Hahah, I didn't know I would get this number," Kai said with an apologetic tone. His humble response made some people impressed while some others felt like he was simply faking it. That stemmed purely from their jealousy.

Kaya also noticed it and smiled inwardly.

'Even when holding back, you're still catching attention, my love. Hehe!' Chuckling, she approached Kai and Aria before she said.

"Good job, you two. You're going on the right path. See everyone? You can definitely do it with a little bit of effort. So, give it your best!"

The students nodded their heads before they immediately resumed their training with even more vigor than before. How can two students exceed them all? That was unacceptable.

'I also want to be praised by Miss Kaya!' They thought.

As for Kai and Aria, they simply continued their training too. With each attempt they did, their number would increase slightly by a few points. It turned out that controlling the points was actually harder than they expected.

In fact, because they were overwhelmingly strong, Kai and Aria struggled to keep their powers held back. More than once the two almost unleashed more strength than intended which could've been disastrous.

But, for better or worse, no such thing happened and they were able to slowly reach 500 points which took 30 attempts.

When they did, the sheers of the students erupted as they surrounded them to check the number. Kaya also praised them with a smile.

"You two did great! Reaching 500 in 30 punches is a record even amongst us teachers."

Kai rolled his eyes inwardly at Kaya's acting.

'If you want, you can blast this doll out of existence with a mere finger flick.' He said to himself.

"Well, since you reached today's goal, you two can leave early." She said.

So, Kai and Aria were excused under the jealous looks of the other students. They left the building and headed back to the apartement.

"We need to buy some groceries first," Kai said as he pulled Aria's hand gently.

"Mmm, ok."

So, the two changed their destination and headed to the supermarket. It took them around an hour to finish shopping during which, Kai found Aria lingering in the sweets aisle.

'She has a sweet tooth.' He recalled how she loved to eat candy when they were kids. She also loved the pastry he baked.

One of her favorite snacks was sour candies which she always carried along with her wherever she went.

"Just pick it up," Kai said with a cold tone as he continued picking up the stuff he needed.

"Is… that ok?"

"I won't repeat a second time."

Aria nodded her head before she hesitantly took the candy and put it in the bag.

"Thank… you…" She whispered under her breath.
