Starting With 3 S-Class Talents

Chapter 57 - Defeat



Chapter 57: Defeat

When Chris and Nabil heard Vincent’s order, they moved instantly without any hesitation.

However, there was a downside in doing so. There was a loophole in their defense.

Vincent had no other choice. Due to Teacher Chris’s attack frequency and intensity, it was likely that Avril would not be able to last for long. This would be the first time that her Fury superpower had failed her. She was about to lose her ability to fight.

At this point, Vincent could only make temporary adjustments and use Hellfire to defend. After Chris took over Avril, Avril could then fill in the gaps in the defense.

Although Vincent had thought it through well and made the necessary adjustments to defend, he was still caught off guard by Bixby. Even his Hellfire idea had failed him.

Bixby suddenly appeared behind Nabil and Angelina. Bixby pointed two hand knives behind their necks. The two of them froze and could no longer fight.

Vincent saw Bixby and immediately cast Flash. Although Bixby tried to dodge, he was still hit by Flash. His clothes were immediately set on fire, and Bixby was engulfed in flames.

Vincent was afraid that Bixby would get injured, so he quickly withdrew Hellfire.

However, just as he was about to react, he heard Bixby’s voice coming from behind him.

“Student Vincent, when dealing with an enemy, you must not have the slightest bit of compassion!”

He then aimed at Vincent’s neck.

The moment Vincent heard Bixby’s voice, he immediately pounced forward and cast Flash again.

“Teng!”

Bixby was ignited.

However, Vincent did not let his guard down. After all, Bixby’s sudden appearance behind him was really strange.

He was burning right in front of him. How could he suddenly appear behind him?

Chris and Avril completed their swap in a short period of time. However, Angelina and Nabil both fainted and lost their strength to fight. There was no point for Avril to return.

Vincent’s eyes were focused and filled with determination.

“Chris, Avril, attack Teacher Chris with all your might!”

He raised his hand and cast Hellfire. He then wrapped himself using Hellfire. This way, at the very least, he would not be attacked by Bixby.

After hearing Vincent’s order, Chris and Avril started to attack Teacher Chris. They could hear the determination in Vincent’s command. They did not hold back.

Even though Teacher Chris was a high-level superpowered user, she still felt challenged by the two of them.

Plus, Chris’s special superpower allowed him to transform into a monster. This made Teacher Chris feel helpless.

Teacher Chris wanted to attack. However, she could not move at all when he transformed into a defensive monster.

She could not attack when he transformed into an offensive monster.

She had to stay away from him when he transformed into a speed monster to trap her.

Avril was still fully capable of attacking. Teacher Chris had no other choice but to wait until they used up their psionic power.

They were their elders and were high-level superpower users. However, they had to wait until they finished using their psionic power before they could win. It was simply too shameful.

Vincent did not stop attacking either. While he was defending against Bixby’s attacks, he used Rocket Arrows and Flash to attack Teacher Chris.

“Be careful!”

Vincent’s eyes suddenly widened just as he reminded Chris and Avril.

He saw Bixby suddenly appearing behind the two of them. He attacked the back of their necks.

At the same time, Avril’s Fury superpower ran out.

Vincent’s reminder was on time. Avril managed to unleash Fury one last time. However, she was still hit by Bixby and fainted.

Chris was still fine. After transforming into a Rock Snake, it was not so easy to knock him out.

It was two against two. There was clearly no chance of winning even from the start.

“Teacher Chris and Bixby, we admit defeat!”

Vincent yelled out helplessly. Although he was upset about the result, there was nothing he could do.

Chris also agreed with the final result. He fell to the ground after using his superpower.

Only Vincent and Chris were not injured. However, the psionic power in Chris’s body had depleted severely. Chris was stuffing restorative medicine in his mouth one by one.

Teacher Chris and Bixby stopped their attacks and stood side by side. They looked at Vincent, Chris, and the other three who had fainted.

“One minute. That’s shorter than I expected.”

Teacher Chris frowned at Vincent. “There’s nothing wrong with your arrangements, but if you make a sudden change without learning the opponent’s superpower, the enemy will find a loophole, just like what happened before.”

Vincent understood clearly. In fact, their failure was mainly due to his adjustment in their positions. This gave Bixby the opportunity to attack them.

Even if Bixby was not a ghost, it would still be the same result if it were another agility-type superpower user.

In the end, he, the team leader, made the wrong decision.

The four of them followed his orders without any hesitation. This proved that there was no issue with trust.

Although there were other factors such as their slow speed when changing positions, it was not the main reason they failed.

“Wake them up and rest for an hour. Let’s continue after that.”

Vincent nodded and woke them up. The five of them sat together and began to reflect on the battle earlier.

Vincent felt guilty. “I’m sorry, everyone. It was my mistake that we failed.”

“It’s okay. It’s not entirely your fault. After all, they are two high-level superpowered users.”

Angelina quickly comforted him.

The others nodded in agreement. Even Avril who had been giving Vincent a cold look nodded.

“Vincent, in my opinion, we’re still too slow this time. As long as we’re fast enough, the so-called flaw won’t be a flaw anymore,” said Nabil as he pushed up his glasses.

“Tell me, how should we fight next time? Although the chance of winning is very small, I won’t admit defeat just like that!”

Chris was full of fighting spirit. He waved his fists in the air.

After hearing everyone’s comforting words, Vincent felt very grateful. He did not want to continue dwelling on this matter.

Vincent frowned. He thought for a moment and said, “This time, we’ll change our tactics. Chris and I will focus on attacking, while Avril protects Angelina and Nabil.”

“Angelina, pay attention to absorbing Teacher Bixby’s superpower. As long as he doesn’t appear suddenly, we won’t fail so quickly.”

“Nabil, your three superpowers have control, attack, and status buffs. Depending on the situation, you can decide which superpower you want to release.”

After listening to Vincent’s arrangements, everyone reflected on it for a moment. It was indeed much more stable than before, so they agreed.

Avril frowned. “What exactly is Teacher Bixby’s superpower? How is it that he can suddenly appear? Plus, he was everywhere.”

“It should be something like doppelgangers or concealment, but these are two separate superpowers! Could it be that Teacher Bixby has two superpowers?”Angelina guessed.

“No, Bixby’s superpower has always been very mysterious. Very few people in the academy know about his superpower. However, one thing is certain. Teacher Chris would not be a match for Teacher Bixby,” said Chris whilst frowning.

As he was a senior student, it was not unusual that he knew more about the teachers. Therefore, what he said was believable.

The five of them knew very well that Teacher Bixby was the main issue. It was Bixby that they had to look out for.

After watching the five of them discussing intensely, Teacher Chris and Bixby were very satisfied with their performance.

It was indeed quite impressive for them to last one minute in an attack with two high-level superpowered users.

After all, aside from Chris, the other four were all low-level superpowered users.

In the principal’s office, Sibis was standing by the window. He shook his head after watching the battle.

“Chris and Bixby have gone too far. They actually used their superpowers on the five children.”

However, he was not ashamed. After all, he did agree to let Teacher Chris and Bixby carry out the team training.
